Letters To My Son-The Graduation
Author : Susan Drake
Dear Son,
Well, it's done. Graduation is over, the parties are coming to an end. Preparation has begun for life after high school.
This past year has been tough with it's trials and tribulations. Those wings of yours have opened and you have begun to soar. As you fly above, look down and reflect on your life. The good, the bad, the meaningful and the meaningless. Throw away that which does not matter and cling to those things that do. Let go of past mistakes and start your future today. Start a path of defining moments that will define the true you. Caleb, son and friend of God, sensitive and caring, striving to always do the right thing, defining your future and the course it will take.
These next few years will be fun, hard, life-changing years. You will explore your worth. You will fail, you will triumph. You will lose and you will win. You will make choices and reap the results of those choices...good or bad. You will let go of the child and grab onto the adult that so desparately wants to blossom. You will be loved by many and not by a few. Cling to the love and allow the hate to fall away. It's just not worth holding on to. Keep the Lord close to you. Cling to Him when there's nothing left to do. Listen to His still, small voice when deciding what to do. Walk with Him daily to know how to do. He's all you need.
Dad and I love you so much and are so excited to watch your future unfold. We are proud of you. We brag about you. When you hurt, we hurt. When you are excited, we are excited. When you are full of joy, we are full of joy. That's just how it goes with parents.
We have great expectations of your future. We have an assurance that all will be well with you.
Begin this adventrue with excitement and determination. It's a great ride...but hold on.
We love you Caleb, and are so proud of you....
Love,
Mom
