I tickle the mind and inspire generation after
generation. I spend hours and hours
bending thought to my will. Never in
your life have you had your own thoughts since you left me. Everything you have ever imagined or thought
of has come from me. I have poured my
soul into you and you have become the fruits of my labor. Fruit that has produce more fruit. From you every generation after you have been
promised to me. As you were the first
from your father’s seed to join my ranks, you have vowed your bloodline hence
forth to me. I owned you and now you own
me. You own the ideas formed, the
training learned, the work ethic discovered, and the process of thinking. You are the one people of you inspire to be
like.
What does it mean to be the spark of generations to come the
first of your kind, the one who showed them the way? Your mother showed you the way as she was the
first of her kind. Now, you will be the
first from your father’s line. Time will
tell if you are successful or not, whether or not your example proved
true. All I can do is to continue to
bend your thoughts to my will. Whether
you are cut from the leaves of Ivy, or the ward of a state institution, you
will forever shepherd the sheep skin.
Forever marshal the lessons learned.
Forever be the beacon of light for everyone to see. As I continue to say, I will always bend your
thoughts to my will.
To become that beacon, you must travel from domain to
domain, personality to personality and absorb all that is presented. You will have to successfully navigate the
trials at 90% to 100% rate to not be prosecuted. To be found not guilty of ignorance by the
judges who sum you up and grade you. For
I have done my best. Your thoughts now
straightened by the four years of travelling from domain to domain and from personality
to personality, bending to my will, I may now adorn you. I now present you with this cap and gown, present
you with this sheep’s skin. Whether it is
from the leaves of Ivy or from the ward of the state institutions, I welcome
you. The college graduate.
I am College.
