Here lays one of the most anticipated times of high school life, their senior quote. As seniors rush to social media and past yearbooks for guidance they will soon realize that they are all looking in the wrong directions. What needs to be on their minds is their heart. Why is it that nearly every senior wants to be remembered for saying something clever or witty but not something meaningful and beautiful? Why not tell their underclassmen that they are beautiful or that they can achieve anything that they set their minds to? Because…
Who wants that? Why encourage people who say random things like, “What’s up? No you…” In the yearbook and not think twice about it. Most of the time when teens write their quote for their yearbook, they are happy about it until they look at it again 20 years later and ask themselves, “What was I thinking?” Why waste your time asking yourself that when you can use the beautiful mind you were given and create something amazing. Simple words can brighten someone’s day and might as give them advice to take with them in their own life. So, instead of stressing out about being clever or saying something silly, think of something meaningful and beautiful. Make someone happy that they read your quote, don’t make them pass over it.
