Students often work around the clock to claim success. It is their way of being in control of the outcome of their story. Doing well at their studies gives students a clear path to the stars and so, they pursue their education with diligence and devotion.
I have to give it to those students who were engaged in the great struggle of learning virtually; especially who were on the verge of becoming a class of 2020 graduate. Their
story is one I would consider as being unique because they had to deal with the
challenge of doing everything required to take off to the sky, online.

and practice I did to make sure I had all the tools I needed to be able to walk
down the aisle with tears of joy rolling down my cheeks, to actually accept my
certificate of completion.
Thoughts of this ran through my mind when my sister sent me her intelligent and handsome son’s graduation picture. I looked at it and it made me want to dabble into a bit of creative expression while my excitement for his accomplishment was fresh in my mind. I’d say that I

I felt such a feeling of elation for them that music came pouring out the well of my eyes; especially for my students and for my nephew. Please check out the song here: https://youtu.be/cCqQLst99tM
I created the drum track and then the piano overlay and added stacks of vocal harmonies to it and then sent the song to my friend John Mueller in Chicago, IL, who added a funky bass line and moving guitar strums to it.

Congratulations to the class of 2020. Job well done.

DeleteMy son is a 2020 graduate and it's been an interesting last few months for sure. He didn't like the virtual learning as he likes a classroom environment, but he did it and had a virtual ceremony. Kind of sad that he didn't get to graduate and walk on stage like everyone else in former years.
ReplyDeleteI agree. They so deserved to experience real classroom learning and a live ceremony. But thank God. Congratulations to your son.
