Drum roll!
Cue the graduation song aka Elgar's
Pomp & Circumstance March No. 1
And now we march toward the next door, next bridge, the next stage
All these sleepless nights, these million things per second invading our minds, these mountains of documents to submit, documents to prepare, documents to draft, these are the signs, we are all doing a collective 'graduation'
We are finally in the last stage of studies in different fields and finally we are getting all these checklists and schedules for the incoming rite of passage for all of us.
We are in graduation phase
The past is done we have submitted the last needed document, we defended our thesis, we have finished the thesis paper and incorporated the recommendation, the suggestions and the next part of our studies, hence we are now in the preparation part for the grand move up stage, the graduation!
Some of us will be so busy making different versions of our CV for different purposes, catering them to the needed qualifications in the field: there will be for admin, for writing, for creative purposes, for higher education learning, for fellowships, for internships, etc. These are the next steps, we follow the step as we follow the path of our direction.
The mountain/universe/ocean we came from was not an easy terrain, path, but we have made it and now the next step requires of us to be stronger, to be ready, to cultivate and to remember wisdom and compassion every single moment. We are like ants who aspire to climb the Himalayas, as my Master has explained tirelessly, every single day for the last 50 plus years.
Master said earlier, we follow the path by lifting one foot and then stepping forward. Then one foot lift and then forward. Lift then forward, again and again.
We must be present as we go through the process of graduation and after the rite of passage, a new life will begin, just follow the direction, follow the map, follow the teachings.
