6.11.11

i graduated from college today. it is so insane - i don't think it has hit me yet. one day next week, i am going to do a post recapping my college experiences. i just had to post this card i received from my grandparents:
to live a successful life does not require money, fame, power, prestige, or status symbols...it's more a matter of being true to your beliefs and principles, doing your best, even in the smallest of things, and never taking for granted the simple joys in life - such as laughter, a perfect day, or a loyal friend. for all the money in the world can't buy self-esteem, character, contentment, love, or happiness - and these are the very things that make life worth living. however you define happiness and success, may you find and enjoy them every day of your life. congratulations as you graduate.
kristin,
words cannot express how proud we are of you. i pray god will continue to bless you as you move forward in life. remember, "i can do all things through christ who strengthens me." phillippians 4:13 we love you! grammy and papa

it is literally one of the truest cards i have ever received and more heartfelt than i could even express.
