Special Graduation

Saturday, December 15th I was truly inspired and proud of my dear friend Michelle. With one very talented 16-year-old son, 4-year-old twins, a full time very demanding job with an hour commute each way she graduated from George Fox University with a Master of Business Administration. As I sat in the Wood-Mar Hall Auditorium and looked at all of the families and down at the graduates I teared up a bit. You could feel the love, respect and pride in every person in that room. The sacrifice family members made to support these graduates, the sigh of relief from the graduates as they were finally done with their long journey.

Every teenage should attend a graduation like that. You couldn’t help but be inspired, drawn to do more in life and suddenly want to be down on that stage celebrating your accomplishments.

Mediocrity is not an option!
