I graduated today.

Today I concluded my graduate student journey. I attended my PhD convocation ceremony, adorning a doctoral hat and gown. Every graduation, and I have attended a few, I was always so envious of those in red robes and philosopher style hats. Now I was one of them. Tears filled my eyes. It has been a long journey. But I finally made it. 

I would like to thank all those who supported and encouraged me to pursue higher education. You made today possible. 

I would also like to thank the kindness of strangers. People I never met before approached me to say congratulations. Thank you. Your words meant more to me then you will ever know.
