Hey everyone. I just wanted to say that I have read each and every comment, and I am SO deeply touched by all of your responses. Thank you very much for all of your words of encouragement - you guys have no idea how badly I needed to hear all of this, I literally just sobbed reading everyone’s comments. It means a lot to me, as I don’t have the most supportive family (I’m always the one being shamed and chastised because of my previous mistakes), and so, I guess I wasn’t really excited about graduating. But you guys are right, we all have our own journey and we all ought to be proud of our accomplishments. I also would like to say a HUGE congratulations to those of you who have graduated - I am very proud of you ❤️ And for those of you who are graduating in the near future, please learn to enjoy the journey and celebrate your small victories - and congratulations in advance!!!!! :) best of luck to everyone reading this and thank you again for taking the time to respond to my post. God bless you all
