Some scrambled thoughts after seeing my friend graduate:

The final moments of high school hold so much joy.

But it’s intermingled with sadness.. goodbyes trying to preserve themselves in wistful hope. Eyes fixed on the smiles of family and friends, as the mind wanders. Realizing that things will never be the same.

But this thought is something to celebrate — for every bittersweet end, there is something great ahead.
