Well, graduation day was nothing but magical!  The weather was perfect and the speaker, Rick Steves, gave an inspiring speech.  The Evergreen State College knows how to celebrate a commencement; it was like one giant party of pure fun.
Over the past few weeks, I've weeded through stacks of college papers and books.  I had such a great educational experience which I relived while sorting.
Now for the future....... have you noticed how doors begin to open when you follow your passion?  I have focused on sustainable business, teaching, fiber arts, and helping others during my eduction.  Lately I've wondered how in the world I'm going to combine these areas.  Today, I met with another lady, Roby, who has similar passions and so we devised a plan.  Number one is to find a space to rent for sewing.  After that, the ideas for projects/businesses seem endless. 
As I reflect on the past four years, I see now that everything happened for a reason; the people I met and concepts I learned were not by coincidence. So I encourage you to follow whatever your dreams may be and not give up!
