2019 HANCOCK COUNTY GRADUATES, May 17, 2019 • Page 7B

Dear Seniors ... members of the Class of 2019 Well, here it is. The big day. The one you -- and your parents -- thought would never get here. You made it! YEEEEHAAHHHHH!! Praise the Lord and pass the diploma! Twelve or more years of attending classes, doing homework, taking a gazillion tests, spending time Tommy with your friends, Campbell cheering at or Editor & participating in Publisher sporting events, and a thousand other memories that you hopefully will cherish for the rest of your lives. Enjoy this time. Years from now you will still remember how it felt to walk across that stage and accept your diploma. And, hey! This also means you aren’t a kid anymore, but a fullfledged young adult with all of the privileges, rights and responsibilities that come with being a grown-up. I encourage you to use those rights and privileges wisely, and sprinkled with a good dose of common sense. Never forget that YOU, young ladies and gentlemen graduates of today, are the leaders of tomorrow ... the movers and shakers who will take this county, this state, and this nation to whatever its future destiny may be. Never let anyone tell you that it will be an easy ride. It won’t. There will be potholes, problems, headaches and heartaches along the way on the winding, sometimes treacherous road they call “life”. But hopefully there will be far more smiles and mountaintop highs for you as you make your way in the world, which will make the valleys and gray, foggy days of times of “winter” seem far, far away. It’s all in how you choose to handle what life throws at you. As the cliché goes, you can look at your glass as half empty or half full. You can take the high road, choose to soar with eagles, aim for the stars, and make a positive difference in this world, or take the lower path chosen by some and wallow in the mud, party with pigs, act like idiots and pretty much settle for whatever comes along. YOU will determine your future. Good or bad, right or wrong,

from this point forward you cannot point fingers or blame others for what happens. The choice is yours. Make the best of it. Many of you will be heading off to colleges and universities, and many to trade schools. A good number of you “Seniors of 2019” will become the newest heroes in the U.S. Military, and if that is your choice, may GOD BLESS YOU for deciding that our country and the freedoms we enjoy are worth fighting (and dying) for! Some of you will go straight into the work force. Others may choose to marry and raise families. All of those are great choices. Just

Give 110% of your best to your employer. Raises and job security depend on you making yourself as valuable as possible to that man or woman who signs your paychecks. Remember, too, that jobs and careers are important, but not nearly as important as that man or woman and the smiling faces of the little ones who wait for you to come home at night. Be respectful, be courteous, be mindful of your appearance, pay your bills on time, never walk away from a debt or an obligation, and do your best to see yourself as others see you. Live every day as if it were your last, and make sure that those you

“Never forget that YOU, young ladies and gentlemen graduates of today, are the leaders of tomorrow ... the movers and shakers who will take this county, this state, and this nation to whatever its future destiny may be.” Tommy Campbell think long and hard about what it is you really want in life and then go for it. Don’t let anyone talk you out of choosing a career field or a calling that you really feel led to because, trust me, I allowed someone to talk me out of following my own dream many years ago and I have kicked myself a million times in the years since and wished that I had followed my heart and my conscience. It isn’t their life, after all ... it’s yours. Go for it! And whatever you do, do it to the best of your ability. Be a giver, not a taker. Smile a lot, compliment others often, and try to complain, bellyache, whine and make lame excuses as little as possible (it will earn you a lot more friends!) Volunteer whenever possible to help those less fortunate, not with a hand-out but a hand-up. VOTE ... in every election, and never let any dimwitted fool tell you that your vote doesn’t count. It does.

love know it, because you never know if you will live to see another sunrise or to have a chance to tell that special someone just how much he or she means to you. Statistically, after you graduate, it is unlikely that you will ever see some of your fellow classmates again. Some will move far away. Others will forget you ever existed. A few will die at a young age in

accidents; others will lose their lives as a result of incurable diseases or criminal activity. The time you are together on graduation night will be the last time that your entire class will be in one place at one time. Savor that time together. And always remember that, in spite of its problems, America is still the best country on the face of the earth in which to live, work, and raise a family. No other nation on the face of this planet offers young people such a wide-open opportunity to “make it” in life. So with that said, graduates, I ask you -- no, I beg of you -- to be a part of the solution, not a part of the problem. The Constitution guarantees all Americans several things, but a “free ride” and “easy money” is not among ‘em. No one owes you anything. President John F. Kennedy said it best when he challenged Americans to “ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country.” Faith in God, hard work, determination, character, education, using common sense to work through your problems, and a good name will take you to mountaintops that you cannot even begin to imagine. As publisher of your county’s hometown newspaper, I just want each of you to know that I am VERY, VERY PROUD of you and your accomplishments. Get that diploma, then go out in the world and show us what you can do! Best wishes and congratulations to all of the graduates in our coverage area from all of us at The Hancock County Eagle!

We Wish You a Happy Graduation & a Bright Future We hope your graduation day is filled with good friends, good times and good memories, and may it be the start of many more great things to come. We know you have worked hard to earn your diploma, and that dedication proves you have what it takes to succeed. We’re proud of you.

Congratulations and best of luck!
