So finally the day is here. The day everyone who successfully completes his/study waits for. Walking into the auditorium for the congregation, I looked around and didn’t see some people I started the four-year journey with.
I knew some people who really started well, but across the journey, something which I don’t know, came up and crippled them and because of that they weren’t present on the big day.
As I sat in the auditorium observing the conductor mention names, what the wise king, King Solomon (the Asantehene and Chancellor of KNUST), said dawned on me and it got me thinking… “The end of a thing is better than its start.”
I thought deep into it and realised it was very true. Although the beginning matters, the end is more important because I know some classmates who started the journey badly but ended very well.
Probably you had a good start but some friends you made, activities you involved yourself in, some things you took for granted made you end badly. I believe going into the world (as fresh graduates) is another journey offered to us to end right. So now that we all have another opportunity to end well. It’s my prayer that God be with you in all your endeavours.
To fellow fresh graduates of KNUST, I say AYEKOO!
