It is graduation season. Congratulations to the Class of 2023….
Winston Churchill once said, “We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.”
Movie guru Steven Spielberg noted, “The delicate balance of mentoring someone is not creating them in your own image, but giving them the opportunity to create themselves.”
And Sir Isaac Newton reminded that we don’t do anything alone. “If I have seen further,” he observed, “it is by standing on the shoulders of giants.”
We all stand on the shoulders of giants: family, mentors, teachers, faith leaders, and friends that we meet throughout our lives who provide the foundation, roots, and wings for us to fly.
Congratulations to all the 2023 graduates who now begin the next chapter of their journeys. As Dr. Seuss exclaimed, “Oh, the places you’ll go!”
Now it’s time to fly….
