Scars From The Past
Sweety Elle
Eliza POV
After two months.............
"According to the late great American inventor Thomas Edison, "Sucess is 99% perspiration and 1% inspiration." I am quite confident that this piece is wisdom needs a little revision. I believe that hard work and inspiration are distinct entities- ingredients to make a dream to come true. Allow me to tell you my secret formula: if "S" stands for success then "S" equals "A" plus "B" plus "C" plus "D". "A" being 99% perspiration, "B" 1% recreation, "100%" inspiration, "D" is stop wondering why success totalled 200% because as I said, it's a secret formula. Period. This day, our success is more than 100% because we feel so inspired that's why we defy the limits of what success is. Yes, I believe that each of us here is an inventor. You are a Thomas Edison yourself. I am a Thomas Edison in my own right. You have your own formula for success, and I have mine. I believe that it is us who invent our success and create our own failures. It is us who invent the future.
At this very moment, one of the greatest dreams we have invented some years ago had already materialized. And heading this graduating class is enough to boost my confidence to tell our parents and families that it's time to reap what they have sown. Fellow graduates, yes, it's time to bid adieu to our beloved Alma Mater, this institution had been our home, our refuge, and our source of hope. Today is the opportune time to dedicate our success to our parents, guardians, and loved ones who have been supportive of all our undertakings. We thank them for their emotional support, love, compassion, care, understanding, advices, moral support, and inspiration. We especially thank them for their financial sustenance, the allowance, and their hardwork to support our education. We are here to remind that their investment was never in vain. Their presence here is an inspiration for us to continue the dreams we have started. Above all, we thank Almighty God for all the blessing we have received. With all humility, we thank the Creator for the gifts of mental faculty, health, and for the great of life........................................................................................................................................."
