In 2 weeks I graduate with my Bachelors Degree, A day that took 2 and 1/2 years to get too. I will have my second degree in nursing and I am proud to say, I worked hard and sacrificed a lot to get here and it was worth the effort.
In life a few folks can find
The way to self satisfaction
In life a few folks can find
The way to self destruction
The trick is to find the path that goes
Towards the satisfying goal
And see the way to live it right
So in the end we are content
It happens that this path is found
By those who actively seek it
It’s hidden from the casual glance
And closed to passive hopes
I have found this road and it is not paved
It has proved a goal that’s hard to get
But hard I worked, and stubbornly sought
And now I see the light
I see the end, the goal I sought
A wish, I worked for now is here
I soon will achieve the bonus earned
And hope my fellow learners will as well.
