Graduation

A lot of people I know are graduating soon- like in the next week. People, one person in particular, that I love so dang much is graduating with her masters degree this weekend. And I'm so proud. I always love when people further their education to better themselves and the world as we know it.

Have you ever stopped to think of life as a school or university? And the things we spend our time participating in are the classes we are taking and is eventually what we will graduate in? Facebook101 or realitytv400? How about gossip or unhealthy living? Everything we do is part of the school we are attending and the education we are paying for.

I will start to take classes like friends and family and love and forgiveness and adventure and fun and health. I will fill my time with things that will help me graduate with the degrees I desire- and I desire happy. Success. Love. Forgiveness. I want to master those things. And I don't think reality tv will help me.

I doubt I will be at the graduation for any of the important people in my life this weekend but I will continue to work for my own life graduation. Or my daily graduation. Perhaps everyday we get to choose what class we take?? Perhaps we don't have to wait til the end of our lives.

Today I filled my time with love and self forgiveness. And Harley- which is another word for love- and good friends. I spent too much time online because it ended up making me sad
but I also watched NBA which made me happy. I filled my time missing someone and wishing them well and time working and meditating.

I feel like I graduated in something positive today.
