SU,

Before you,
Before Lord FairFax Community College (now Laurel Ridge),
I really didn’t know what came after high school.

By the grace of God,
I saw the wonders of writing.
The fascination of creating stories,
And the fact that there is a tale untold.

Thanks be to God that I am here.
Through you I have met some amazing people,
Professors,
Friends,
And memories.

Through the ups and downs,
Learning curves and stress,
I have matured,
Learnt more about me,
About writing and literature,
Interest,
The world,
And my beliefs.

I would love to stay,
But my time here has come to an end.
So, Thank you.
Thank you to all the my Professors,
Friends.

Maybe one day,
I will set foot on your grounds again.
A better me and a published author.
This may be a end to a chapter in life,
The chapter at Shenandoah University.
But it is just the beginning of a new one,
A new story to be written.

This isn’t goodbye,
But see you later.
