Pomp and Circumstance

I had the greatest honor this weekend to attend the graduation of my friends at Biola University. I cannot describe the range of emotions inside of me at this point. I am filled with unbelievable happiness at seeing my friends walk to receive their diplomas, after so many years of hard work, late nights and losing so much sleep. I am so proud of them and at the same time I feel sadness. Not sad that i could not have been graduating with them but sad that I am realizing we're all growing up, getting older and closer to be regular people in society. Going off to internships, jobs, moving into apartments and renting houses.

It just seems so sudden but its beginning to settle in that we're just not kids anymore. Now its that we're adults and are planning out our lives and futures. I know there will come a day that we'll all be separated, and won't be able to see each other as much as I wish we could but I know also that this is necessary for our growth. I know I won't get to see them as much as I wish I could but I hope they all know how much I love them and how much they mean to me and the affect they've had on me. I want to wish you all the best and so many congratulations. I love every single one of you and hope and pray for nothing but the best. :)
