I never thought I was this shallow, but I can’t get past it.
I’ve always made it clear that I would not walk at the graduation ceremony. My family seems to assume I’ve had a change of heart, but the thought of attending still makes me deeply uncomfortable.While I do understand that graduation is an important milestone for some, it isn’t in my case. I will go on to undergrad in the same town with many of the same people from my high school.
When given the choice, I always vote for “stick to your guns” – unless the other choice is to “suck it up,” when doing so is a possibility of a relatively brief duration. However, at this juncture, one thing to keep in mind is that graduation is not for you; it’s for your parents. They don’t care about prom, games and school plays. They might care very much about graduation.
Sit down with your parents and gauge how much they care about this one event. If you perceive that they do care, then decide: Are you able to give your folks this little gift? If so, then throw on a cap and gown and walk the walk.
