Behind the pain is the Gain.
Happy weekend dear friends,I am @ntul001 ,
I bring to you memories in captured a d saved in picture form. It only people there were present that can feel the express of joy within the graduant ,God indeed brought this far.Were are indeed grateful.I wont forget to acknowledge the moderators of this community for always being there to help fix issues and guide us through this platform.
But today I bring to us something more than important and serious worth many treasures of the heart. Let me get into my message In full. I will take you all on a journey of many years summarize in few words.
Pictures are used to capture moments, but there are moments in life that pictures cannot fully capture. It doesn’t matter how clear the smiles are this picture is one of those moments. Ordinary looking, it may seem like three young men laughing after a long day, but for us, it carries the weight of years. Years of hard work, resilience, struggles, and friendship.
The shirts of my two friends are filled with colorful signatures and scribbles. They are no longer just pieces of clothing, but diaries written in ink, carrying the memories of people who walked this journey with us. Every name represents someone who laughed with us, encouraged us, struggled with us, and became part of the story. And though the ink will someday fade, the memories will remain as fresh as today.
Yet behind the smiles, nothing was easy. There were days when waking up felt like a burden, and nights when textbooks weighed heavier than our own bodies. The thought of quitting often crossed our minds. Exams made our hearts race, results sometimes brought disappointment instead of relief. Beyond academics, there were personal battles, health challenges, financial struggles, emotional breakdowns, and family responsibilities. There were days we went to class hungry, unable to afford handouts or materials. Life outside the classroom often threatened to steal our focus inside it.
But in those moments of weakness, we found reasons to keep going. We reminded ourselves why we started, how we started, and what made us start. We reminded ourselves that education was not just about earning a certificate, but about writing the story of our lives and the lives of those who believed in us.
Today, I am grateful to God for the successful graduation of my friends. Mine comes in a few days. And when it does… see you at the blue side.
