My Graduation Speech

Today proves what we we have always known, that one day, we would grow up. Time has whizzed by so fast, and we have gone from kids, to teenagers, to ready to be young adults. The journey to high school seems a bit daunting, as the question arise in our heads, “How hard will it be? How will I do all that work? Who will help me?” High School may seem a bit scary at first, but so was middle school when we first came. No matter how confused and frustrated we were, the support of family, friends, and teachers helped keep us motivated, enough to breeze through middle school, happy with our effort. But that does not mean we will not face trouble ahead in life. We will experience challenging times, experience things that no one should ever experience, completely freak out. There will be moments when we are completely alone to face our fears. But when that does happen, all we have to do is remember the good times we had with the people we loved. No matter how we feel, no matter what happens, life will not care. Life will continue on without a moment's hesitation because life does not care. That is why we must continue on, not afraid. We should do what we want to do in life, become what we want to become. We must not give up. As long as we have the love and support of our family, we should be happy, and remain patient with life. This is probably the most important lesson taught by Golf, the lesson that needed to be listened to multiple times before we finally got it. As we continue our studies, reading more math, literature, science, art, the one lesson that we should keep near and dear is the lesson about perseverance, the lesson about never giving up. It is through perseverance, experience, wisdom, and support from others that we become truly successful. My time here at Golf has shown me this, and has made me a more mature person. I have gone from fearing the future, to looking forward to it. The support from family, friends, and teachers kept motivating us to work harder, and it is to them that we are grateful. From the bottom of our hearts, the class of 2016 says thank you to all the families, parents, siblings, aunts and uncles, thank you to all the friends and peers, and thank you Golf.
