Be different!

Student life is a constant struggle, a few rewards, a few disappointments, all adding to maturity and leading to new goals and ends.

Graduation is both an end and a beginning. It is the end of a glorious and romantic (though sometimes weary and anxious) era of enrichment and discovery, but the beginning of an era of hope, promise, opportunities and challenges. Setting sail into this new era requires courage, initiative and wit, for there are so many paths to choose from. Those who are bold tend to go for the most challenging and testing paths. Better still might be to go where there is no path, thus to make one's own trail. The key is to be thoughtful, innovative and creative - but also to keep searching and learning. For it is well said that “The man who graduates today and stops learning tomorrow is uneducated the day after.” It is easy to follow the crowd when in the crowd. It is better to be in the crowd, but not always to follow it. There are many new paths to discover, many new worlds to explore. Why not go for it! Why not go for creativity and innovation? Why not be different and unique.
