Celebration

This is the season of awards ceremonies at my university. Every time I turn around, there's another one: I'm not complaining, just remarking. Today, I went to a good one. One of my former students won a university award for a paper he wrote in my class. He's a great student--a former marine who is smart and hardworking. And such good writer, too. There's something really wonderful about seeing someone who deserves it being celebrated in front of his family and professors. Watching him accept his award made me feel good for him and about the work I do. I get to hang around with the most remarkable people. What a life.
