Graduation Speech

February 16, 2016



“Getting wisdom is the most important thing you can do, and whatever else you do, get good judgment. If you prize wisdom she will exalt you, embrace her and she will honor you. (Proverbs 4:7-8 New Living Translations)

The beginning statement is so simple, short and concise however, the simplicity of such verse originates from the wisest and most famous man who ever lived since the world begun.

Wisdom is anywhere; wisdom is indispensable, nobody among us who hates and curses wisdom because we live through wisdom and we exist by wisdom. Not only me, not only you and not only they that aspire for it but each one of us.

Every graduation or closing exercises the parents, teachers and graduates are uniting and rejoicing together in gladness and happiness on seeing their trained, their children and love ones with them wearing the graduation suit, passing on the aisle and going to stage on offering the signs of their victories from the fruit of their collective endeavors during the schooling period.

To the graduates, you are still incomplete learners, same as me, fixing this graduation day from the mandates of your Alma Mater is a boundary to another challenges to walk on, a borderline to another battles to pass on a key to open more hints of opportunities on seeking and possessing wisdom.

As a high school graduates, you should be ready on the incoming fields that soon you will take on. Entering in college academe is not simple unlike what you had used in your former academe, thus, college life requires more determination and courage to remain fit and to survive. In college, more wearies and tears to experience, more sleepless nights to spend but more success to gain to those deserving override the hidden and unexpected challenges to bring you up and to drag you down and apparently more frustrations and failures for those delinquents and easy go lucky people.

You are so fortunate at your age, you are a youth with opportunity to excel, and a youth with a chance to go in exploring the world of wisdom and more challenges to become intellectuals in your incoming fields and you are the generation shall realize the unfolded dreams and missions of the old and passing generation.

Do not be contented to what you are as now, go for more and go beyond where you can find wisdom of life, used your God’s given faculties to fulfill your aspirations, life is goes on changing from time to time do not let the time comes that you will left behind.

The ultimate wisdom is not only the accumulated and earned wisdom from the corners of the University’s rooms and Hall of fame in this physical world. We should not let ourselves to claim as wise by just academic and scholastic records and achievements based, because if we shall do it we are not wise but an arrogant!

The God’s gift wisdom, inmate wisdom of your heart, mind and soul is the genuine wisdom. If you walk in this world in accordance to God’s will you are wise man, if you are continuously evolving in your environment with unblemished spirit you are learned and eventually you are more and incomparable to those who studied and schooled but fooled in God’s sight.

Therefore, youths, you seek first the God’s wisdom and eventually find the guided world’s wisdom, if you have these you are great wise man and you are rightfully and entitle to consider as a creature by God’s likeness.

Dear parents and teachers and distinguish guest please accept my ardent and warmth greetings and felicitation to this another momentous events that you caused in holding this closing exercises. I would like to congratulate all of you for investing and entrusting your conjoin efforts in shaping up the abilities and upbringing potentialities of these graduates. I implore the Almighty to bless you more for aiding these youths for their bright futures and ways to become a better person and to find a better life.
