College Graduation

The pathetic rantings of a thirty-something mind
No, I am not graduating.
As some of you know, I dropped out of college in the third quarter of 2012. And I never went back. After spending my Freshman year of college, plus a month of my Sophomore year in school, I developed relationships with quite a handful of people at my alma mater, Cornell College.
Well, tomorrow is their graduation day. I will be there.
It will be a bittersweet thing to see my old college friends graduate and to see them for what may well be the last time in my life and theirs.
But I feel like it's something I need to do. It's something that will bring me closure; for what, I can't really say... But it's something I must do.
I know it won't be easy to see them all, but I made a promise to myself that I'd see them all again on graduation day to say hello, and goodbye.
I'm looking forward to it and also dreading it in a very bittersweet way.
I'll probably cry, but I want to be happy for them beginning a new chapter of their lives.
It'll all be okay.

I hope it's a good day, for all the pain apparently attached to it. And I hope your friends go on to lead fruitful lives, even if they do fall out of contact with you.

A sense of closure can be a good thing... but think of this as another stepping stone for all of you... and for better days ahead! You never know what's around the corner, Beast. *hugs* ^,,,,^
