FEELINGS OF ACCOMPLISHMENT
Lucy anxiously waited for the mail to arrive.
As she looked at her watch she couldn't help but
look back at this past year of her life and
reminisce over the struggles that had brought her
to this very moment .
A teen age pregnancy in her senior year
certainly wasn't something that she had planned.
Revealing this dark secret to her parents was one the most
difficult moments she would ever have to endured
As she waited images of her parents faces
laid heavy across her heart
Fearing the possibility of disappointing them again
Was to painful to imagine
As the carrier stopped and placed the
anticipated letter into Lucy's trembling hands
She closed her eyes and slowly tore it open.
After reading the contents she turned and walked away
That evening as she sat quietly through dinner
she didn't have much to say, but slowly removed the
the letter from her pocket and slid it across the table.
Her parents looked at each other
Upon opening the letter and examining the content,
both looked up across the table at Lucy who was now smiling
as never before, she had passed her senior year.
Definitely not the best of grades
but certainly one that would do
Feelings of accomplishment was certainly earned that day.
But as Lucy turned to walked away from the tears and
smothering embraces of her parents
She knew " what she most cherished "
Was the pride she saw upon both her parent's face
