This is so inspiring to me ,and let me tell you all why.I am 30 years old ,and i’m starting school for my “G,E,D’.Life was hard for me in more ways than one ,and so i quit school,and gave up on everything.This is not an excuse,but it’s how it was for me until I got the help that I needed to get back on track.When I see all of you young people graduating I know that I can do it.I want to go to college ,and be a better person,and a more productive citizen.Thanks everyone for the inspiration.

Congratulations to all the graduates, pre-school to college!!!! Nothing does my heart prouder than to see us striving for more in POSITIVE ways….
I don’t feel so bad about being 36 and having decided to go back to school for that parchment, and these pictures motivate me to keep studying and pushing. Just a lil while longer and I’ll have my degree in International Business with a minor in Finance.
All you graduates know this…your success motivates and inspires even those you don’t know….
Thank You….

this is what i love seeing…. you guys can keep this post and these people on here forever.Graduation for me was the most exciting years of my life (graduating from high school and college). For the highschool grads: keeping doing what you do and achieving more… For the college grads… you guys did it! keep setting the example for the younger ones under you , show them the right route because so many of them are lost right now…. Im proud of all of them especially the guy going to harvard…. my hat go off to you… I hope you all do well. Im glad to see males getting degrees. I like seeing black people getting their education on… we are more than snappin our fingers and fighting and shaking out behinds, we are more than trying to get with flava flav… we are more than that… we have knowledge, power, and education… and no one can take that away from us.
