Opportunities

Take every opportunity that comes your way. Don't hold back and don't miss out. I feel like this is most important when it comes to the people we encounter within our lifetime. Take every opportunity to meet someone new, to get to know someone, and to create strong bonds and friendships. Don't just blow people off or miss out being friends with someone because they look intimidating or like someone you don't think would be "cool enough" or some lame and stupid thing like that. TAKE EVERY OPPORTUNITY. There are so many amazing people out there, but you won't find out until you try to get to know people. Honestly, I feel like thats somewhere I feel successful. Despite the many differences of the people I have encountered in life, I didn't even try missing out on taking the opportunity to get to know someone. But, I feel like I wish I took on more opportunities, but with that I am motivated to meet and get to know more of the amazing people out there. The leaders. The world changers. The inspirations. The good. The bad. So, with that, really, take the time to meet new people because who knows? That person may influence you the most, help shape who you are or will become, can change your life, etc. I am so blessed to have met so many people who have done that, and more. I can say that life is great, because of the people who have been, are in, and will be in my life. Thank you all so much for the amazing experiences and memories. San Leandro High School Class of 2014, you are filled with amazing individuals that I know for a fact will make a major impact on others' lives and the world. I was just blessed enough to get to know and be a part of a beyond extraordinary class of over 600 students.
