Finally...

Hello Lovely People,

I just wrote my very last paper as an undergraduate! When I got up, I took one loooong, haaard look at the chair I sat on, 'cause I knew that it was the last time I was ever going to sit on a chair like that in the capacity I had sat on it a few minutes ago. As I walked out of the examination hall, I had the inspiration to write this poem, and quickly I sat down to put pen to paper. It's my thoughts about my journey thus far. Enjoy:

ONE BRIDGE CROSSED

It was just like yesterday

I started this race

This race, to win a place

Among the white collars of the world

Not just as one with a bucket,

But as a rain maker

I look back at how the race has been

How so many times I thought I might never get here

How I wondered if I was going to make it through

How I got tired at some point and almost threw in the towel

How Love kept me going

How  Courage kept me stable

How Faith kept me thriving

How Prayer kept me sailing

I can't say I have seen it all

But I have seen quite a bit

And with every heartbeat

I am thankful I have come this far...

One bridge crossed

I too can say

Been there, done that...

Ebenezer!

I did it? No! We did it!! Together!!!

But Lord, You did more... Much more

You made the dream come alive

You gave energy to the vision

You gave speed and ease to all the efforts

You have made me what I have become...

Amen.

Peace... I'm out!
