Wow, only a graduated senior would know the feeling I will try to convey right now, but the few weeks after graduation have been the hardest weeks of my life. All we graduates know is that what is to come will not be anything like what we have known. There are now strange pressures to have your life together and the focus is on the future. Over the past few days it has honestly been hard to slow down, to relax, and to ignore the expectations that I have placed on myself.
This time is strange; I wonder what friends will keep in touch, what graduate school will bring, and who I will meet this summer and over the next two years. I am so thankful, though, that I have graduate school to start to adjust to the demands and expectations that come along with being a real adult.
Right now all we can do is remind ourselves of Christ's love for us, and hold on to His promises that he equips those he calls. His plans are still to prosper, he has not forgotten us! That is a hope that is living and true, and I am trying to savor this time that I can build up my faith and invest in friendships. For now, that's all we graduates have!
