Enjoy the little things.

I discovered my favorite sound today! I attended a college graduation. The dean asked the graduates to rise, so that we could applaud their achievements. That’s when I heard it. Not a boom, softer than thunder, it was low, and powerful.

Its the sound of 400 people standing at once.

It was their energy. I could feel the confidence as they stood. I could feel the pride, as parents watched their children rise. Some memories fade, but I desperately hope that I can hold on to this one!
