The walk for gratitude
I took the walk of gratitude
Some people look at it was a walk of death, shame, and accomplishment
I’m finally doing what I need to do
This walk was used to prove my worthiness to the world
Being a minority and going off to the next dream is something we need to talk about
This will become the next journey in life for most of us
These memories will help us move on
With a smile on my face, I achieved my first act of gratitude
Gratitude is the quality of being thankful
This is where I’m not a girl anymore I am a woman
I’m finally allowed to do what I need to do
I can move on with my life
The walk across the stage gave me an epiphany about being a real adult
I remember saying I wanted to grow up but now I don’t want to do adult things
I wanted to wear heels and drive
Now I hate both
But this helped me miss my childhood so much
