“The
world is your oyster” is a phrase that was created by William Shakespeare. And
it’s a message that’s never truer than on the day you graduate from college.
According
to the Oxford English Dictionary, this phrase can be interpreted as “one is in
a position to profit from the opportunities that life, or a particular
situation, may offer.” Or in other words, you can do anything and go anywhere
you want.
You
have spent years preparing for this day. No doubt there were a lot of stress,
tears, and sacrifices you had to make to get to this point. And now, you’re
faced with the choice of which road you’re going to take next.
Pearls
and Oysters of Life
Pearls
are formed from an irritation. A foreign object, like a grain of sand, finds an
opening into the oyster. It’s painful and irritating to the oyster, and to
protect itself, the oyster starts to cover the foreign object with nacre. Many
layers later, a beautiful pearl is formed.
All oysters produce pearls though real pearl jewelry is rare at Timeless Pearl. Studying is not easy – it takes courage and hard work – and many don’t make it. But you persevered, you learned from the lessons life gave you, and you evolved into a beautiful, shining pearl.
The
world is full of opportunities – you just have to take it! You determine your
own success.
How
does success look like for you? How does your pearl look like?
·
Is it finding your dream job?
·
Is it making a lot of money so you can
travel and see the world?
·
Is it making a difference in the lives
of family members or in the community?
·
Is it finding meaning in life?
·
Or is it finding someone special to
share your incredible life with?
Whatever
that pearl looks like for you, remember that you can achieve anything you set
your mind to. Yes, there are more difficult times and stumbling blocks that lie
ahead. There are mistakes to be made and lessons to be learned. That is part of
life.
But
what matters is how you handle these obstacles and what you learn and how you
grow from it.
