ECHO 2006 Graduation !!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'd like to share one of a graduation poem with you...

 

 

 

Each of Us Must Climb Our Separate Mountain

 

 by William Byrd

 

 

Each of us must climb our separate mountain

To reach at last our own extended view.

We can be no more than what we are,

Yet that is quite enough for us to do.

 

 

The world is far too great for comprehension,

And so we only know what we can know.

But given the abilities we're given,

That's still a long and weary way to go.

 

 

Yet on the way, how beautiful the moments!

How good it feels to have some skill or art!

How wonderful to pause in awestruck wonder

At what must fill the unsuspecting heart!

 

 

And so we're proud of each of you today

For all you've learned, and all you've tried to learn.

Knowledge brings the deepest satisfaction,

Not least because it's something that you earn.

 

 

 

sorry we couldn't make your graduation...

but...

our spirit is within you...

just like our ECHO days...

We love you so much...

hope...

we can get together soon...
