Graduation Day

Is graduation day supposed to feel like having a dental appointment? Today I become a Master of Science. Four years of studying succesfully that went by too fast and now I'm thrown into an uncertain future. What will become of me? All these question from people which are meant well, but just add pressure to uncertainty. Then again...change is a good thing. When you get too comfortable in a certain place, you lose your edge and sharpness. We can't have that! Discovering new surroundings, learning new things...these are actually good things. Let's see what the future brings!

There is no key, there’s no plan; I discovered that. And, truly, I don’t think you'll find a happier man. (You’ve never earned your soul.) I know, but I’m gonna try, though, I’m gonna try. You float up high and it isn’t a sin. And there isn’t a hell where we’ll be sent. There’s only now, and there isn’t then. So just breathe it in. (Okkervil River - No Key, No Plan)
