It's The Beginning of Something Much Bigger

Twelfth grade. That's it. Plain. Simple. Short. Well, compared to the world beyond the walls most have been seeing for the past four years it is. The real world begins once you cross the stage receiving a document proving to the rest of  your peers that you've successfully completed the thirteen years of an educational contention. It's only the beginning of something immensely prodigious; an embarking point for everyone's lives. Ten months of hiding behind the fraudulent disguise of an image or pushing, embracing, and accepting yourself as a person knowing that when seconds turn to minutes, hours, days, months, and seasons your final year will pass you in a flash. Frightening? Perhaps, but with that said many of the future graduates pursue themselves by living their final year by creating memories. Creating the times you'll remember with people who will share them with you. Whether it's the senior grad prank bringing the future graduates together or just a simple moment with a friend, it's the memory that would never change. That is not always the case since change is bound to happen to a person regardless of who you are. Possibly one of the biggest changes would be when you wake up the next day realizing that yesterday was the ending of familiarity and the start of uncertainty begins. Discovering that choices weren't set on a piece of paper with black and white decision making but hints of gray appear maturing our own decisions. Maturing. It may and always will be the ingenuity and driving force that would guide the lives, choices, and capabilities to explore beyond the four barriers and be ourselves in society. The present society for the future to come and continue the neverending story of our lives.
