Tomorrow finally came.
Several students were all in uniform and having their caps and gowns on.
After a guest speaker got up and talked about their future successes, they finally got the seniors and Master’s students to line up to get their diplomas.
Things were quite peaceful and celebratory as they all went to get their certificates showing that they completed whatever programs at Leyden Avalon University.
I was proud of this year’s graduating class and I don’t blame others tearing up with joy.
But those tears of joy became tears of dead in one fell swoop.
