This is a writting that I did to tell my fellow students how I feel about life after High School.(My dad helped me on this one).

Go placidly amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence...
As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons, for it is better to have a friend than an enemy.
Speak your truth quietly and clearly with conviction; and listen to others, even to the dull and ignorant; as they too have their story to tell.
Avoid loud and aggressive persons; they demand all and give misery in return; they are truly vexations to the spirit.
Do not compare yourself to others, as you will become bitter or vain, for always there will be greater and lesser persons…
