Graduation

I participated in my school's graduation ceremony earlier today. I said goodbye to the students, but really I was saying goodbye to this chapter of my life. The students that I love here will still be a part of me. Our relationships will just change. Daily conversation will become an occasional phone call or text conversation or myspace message. But our connects cannot be broken, just changed by distance and circumstance.

This place doesn't feel the same to me anymore. Roland would say that 'the world has moved on.' So it's time to gather up my things and follow the beam onwards towards my own destiny. And there is no need to look back. The world has passed on.
