I am almost there
May 10, 2010
I had my last college class on Wednesday. I attended the senior send off with a great friend Elyse, walking away from Mizzou towards the city of Columbia. I worked my last shift at the ARC on Thursday. My lasts are becoming a great opportunity for firsts. My college graduation is Saturday.
Seven years after I began, I am finishing something I started.
I feel really proud of myself, and that is a really good feeling.
I am Indebted to the people who have loved me and walked with me. I am Indebted to those who have seen me and empowered me. I am indebted to friends, Wilson girls and roommates and classmates and Sassers and Schaefers. I am indebted to the unending love of parents. I am awed at a God who has always been with me.
Diploma, I will see you soon. I am almost there. Let the journey continue.
Dearest Quinn,
You should feel proud of yourself. There a tremendous number of people who are also so very proud of you, Lori and I being a couple of them.
A quote for thought: “A painful separation from earlier good releases us into the present best. The ascetic denials that are so much a part of (the) life (of faith) in no way deny pleasure. They prepare us for it.” – Eugene Peterson, Where Your Treasure Is
Release your past – Live the present – Embrace your future
Love you, girl!!
congrats!
You rock, your web site is amazing!
