To the 2007 Graduating Class

To the 2007 Graduating Class
By Kelli Nielsen

Life is full of expectations that we can either take for granted, or take advantage of
The choice is yours
but what you may not know is that we all have a plan set in stone for us

This plan could be short… so live life as if there is no tomorrow
Because before you know it that time has slipped away,
as sand does when you try to hold onto it.
Sometimes you hold on so tightly to someone or something and they escape,
As sand slipping through the crevasses of your fingers

Do not rush, but do not wait for the world to put your back on your feet

For this is your life RIGHT NOW and what you choose is the future
The future of tomorrow, the future of a year from now

No longer will everything stay the same
But remember there is no one to blame.

Life must go on, no matter if we tend to disagree
Time is till moving as I speak- plain to see.

Things will get better, be brighter, seem greater

Graduation
a day of tears and happiness
a stepping stone leading you one step further to your future.

We will remember this day, a memory that will stay with us and last
2007, a year I was glad to spend with and will greatly miss this graduating class.
