Heartbeats

We had our end of the year Valedictory dinner tonight. It was filled with tears and emotions I just can't seem to express. Joy that I've been a part of this college, sadness cause I'm going to say goodbye and bittersweet cause I know this is the place that first made me feel at home yet at this point in time, I have to go, I have to move on.

Fiona Crowe, our head of college told us that she placed her ears on her father's chest to hear his last heartbeat as he died, it is a sound that she meditates upon, using it as a way of setting the day right if it is wrong. I feel like part of every heart beat of mine beats for her, it beats for my gran.. cause she's etched her love on the walls of my heart. I will remember to do what I love with fierce passion, to do it because I love it and to excel in it because that's the result of passion. It was a good timely reminder. A very good one.
