wire globe
I see the globe as a reminder. A reminder that after high school, there are opportunities for me, anywhere. That could be an over exaggeration but nonetheless it was a positive thought. It was almost as if the graduation gift was a smaller representation of the life size opportunity I have access to as I age. I can travel and better myself. And it could be anywhere. A reminder that the events that follow high school could lead anywhere. All I must do is take the initiative and follow what makes me happy. All of this doesn’t come hassle free, however. There is indeed a large load of work that must be done and so on. The globe was a reward for passing a checkpoint in my life and to remind me that what comes after is all dependent on me. Everyone has their own journey they want to take. This globe was what made me realize I have my own journey and its adaptable to change. If opportunity isn’t in one place, it’s bound to be at another. It doesn’t even have to be far. It could be a couple of miles, feet, or inches. And it doesn’t matter where. Everyone is different and requires different elements to prosper. When opportunities are taken, they lead to more opportunities which could lead to travel and discovery. There’s more to life than just living at home, driving to school, and driving back. That is a stepping stone, however. But after all the driving, learning, and, to an extent, living, one should strive to discover more about the world one lives in. Having this globe also keeps me wondering where I’ll end up next. Where will I live, work, and die. As long as I’m happy about what I’ve done and satisfied with the work I put in to get as far as I did, it will be a victory.
