This week many students graduate from their college. In the US, this is a big celebration!  The majority of these students had a dream and it was to become professionals. When you have a dream  any profession is important: nurses, teachers, and medical doctors.  Graduation was student's goal which has already been achieved.

After graduation, these students will seek jobs and as they learn, they will grow as professionals. In their journey, a new era with new challenges and new achievements will start. Congratulations to all these students who graduated!

This week of closings remains me how important is a celebration to close a period of time. Celebrations are an important moment on the timeline because they close something and they open up something else. Students and their families are all happy to celebrate it. The prom is really a good example of closing.

In our own journey, there are many closings. It is always nice to say goodbye with a smile, being thankful about what we have got and looking forward to new challenges and new goals.
