Emotions running high.....

Today is the last day of school and we are having our Annual Prize Presentation Ceremony. ANd of course, along with a ceremony, there will be a school musical production put up. I have shadowed Shawn since the rehearsals started. The rehearsals have been tiring and stressful having to get everyone to be observant and also play their part to the best that they could.

Finally, after such a gruelling time, they have managed to put the pieces together. Emotions ran high today as Harvey tried to contain his emotions and read his lines. I guess he has a much higher level of committment towards the school and his CCA groups. He takes the initiative to organize and get things done. He wants his friends and team-mates to be the best that they could be.

One by one, the pupils started to tear as the harsh reality sets in. Last day of school, last group performance, last day on the stage of the school. Shawn could not help himself too. His last musical production. Shawn has watched some of the students grow up. Now that he is leaving, the love and care that he has for the little ones simply overflow and perhaps overwhelm him.

Perhaps this is what i am here for, to help create memories for the little ones. So that years later, as they look back, they can say that they have lived their lives fully.

Thank you Lord, for everything that you have given us. Teach us to be thankful. Teach us how to love and cherish one another.

In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, Amen.
