I have never loved these people more than I have in these moment. I truly believe that in the last year especially but over the course of how long I’ve known each individual one of them, they have made me who I am and I owe a huge portion (if not all) my success to them. I say this day was about me, but it truly was for these people.
To have some of my best friends (special shout out to @christoff4 , @princetheron , @loquere-domine , @imkindaprettygay , @sirsocko , and @ssfranci for being there in spirit through my hair) watch me graduate and be there for me through my mess and my victories (literally in the one day and my entire college career) meant so much to me so much so they truly are a huge part of me. I can say without hesitation how they are truly my family, too. I couldn’t stop smiling knowing I was sharing these pictures and a table for lunch with all of them.
My mother and father and brothers and my sis in law (she is not really my sis in law but we will say that for effect), for being constantly supportive and loving, I owe my heart to them and to have them all in one place at the same time was a gift in itself because it started with them, and it will always be with them. No matter what our little family goes through.
Also, in every breath, I thank God for none of this would be possible without Him.
So… I am officially an adult kicked out into the real world. I wonder where life will take me?
