Let’s face it – most people have a sweet tooth. Some of us just control it better than others and none of us makes a perfect job of it. The key is to

be selective and choose only the really good stuff. This just got easier in Union County, with the recent grand opening of B Squared Baked Goods and More.

Cindy Thomas is a baker – she has loved to make sweet treats since she was a small child, working in the kitchen with her grandmother fixing goodies for Christmas. She has

many fond memories of her Granny Roxie, who operated a number of restaurants in La-fayette County, then retired to become a culinary treasure to her family.

her one time, ‘Granny, you cook and I’ll bake.’ She gave me one of her mixers, which I will always treasure even though it doesn’t work as well as it used to. But I use the bowl that came with it to this day.”

Thomas said her focus is old– fashioned, traditional desserts like the ones her grandmother prepared.

“I try to bake the desserts I remember Granny baking,” she said. “There are a few of her recipes that I am work-ing to master and then offer to my customers. I want my children and grandchildren, as well as my younger cus-tomers, to know the differ-ence between homemade and store–bought baked goods.”

the crowd to the town’s Memorial Day observance.

Organizers moved the ceremony from the cemetery

to the AMVETS Post because of threatening weather.

BY DAN HILDEBRAN

Managing Editor

The JROTC and jazz band

from Interlachen High School

led Melrose residents in a Me-

morial Day Ceremony at ELiam

Cemetery Monday Morning.

The band and color guard,

along with JROTC instructor Lt.

Col. Ronald Leggett started the

ceremony by leading the crowd

in the first and fourth verses of

the Star-Spangled Banner. Leg-

gett printed the fourth verse in

the ceremony’s program to assist

participants.

The band then performed a

melody of military branch an-

thems, and Leggett asked mem-

bers and veterans of each branch

to stand as their branch’s anthem

was played.

Leggett then spoke about the

holiday and led some members

of the audience in remembering

past U.S. military conflicts along

with the number of casualties in

each conflict.

The ceremony concluded with

a benediction, Interlachen Band

Director Wilfredo Irizzarry play-

ing “Taps” and the band leading

the crowd in “America the Beau-

tiful.” In his remarks, Leggett ex-

plained the difference between

Memorial Day and Veterans Day

and a mental trick he uses to re-

member which holiday occurs

when.He said Memorial Day was

originally called Decoration Day

and that families and supporters

of fallen veterans used the May

holiday to decorate the graves of

their loved ones with flowers.

Leggett added that Veterans

Day is observed on Nov. 11 and

that “there’s not really any flow-

ers in November.”

Leggett said Civil War Gener-

al John A. Logan popularized the

idea of Decoration Day, after he

saw the town of Waterloo, New

York observe fallen veterans on

May 5, 1866.

Two years later the country

observed the first official Deco-

ration Day at Arlington National

Cemetery. Five thousand people

descended on the park to deco-

rate 200,000 Union and Confed-

erate graves.

Leggett added that until World

War I, the holiday met with some

resistance in the South. How-

ever, the war in Europe united

the country and Memorial Day

became accepted throughout the

country.

Jessica Godwin brought her mobile clothing and must-have accessory boutique from Starke to the bakery’s grand opening.

Kristi Morton and Amy Hendrieth, from Lake Butler’s Paparazzi Accessories were on hand, bringing their sparkles and bling to the bright morning event.

state scoring higher than Union County were Baker (73%), Gilchrist (70%), Mon-roe (70%), Nassau (75%), St. Johns (78%), Santa Rosa (71%) and Sarasota (70%). Charlotte County tied Union for eighth place in the state at 69%.

In comparison to previ-ous years, all but a handful of districts in the state failed to improve their scores or, at least, maintain their previ-ous year’s score. Lowest in the state were Desoto Coun-ty, at 34%, Gadsden County at 37%, Madison at 40% and Putnam with 41%. Gilchrist

County, which is the closest in the state to Union Coun-ty demographically, showed marked improvement over the past five years, progress-ing from a low of 52% in 2015 to a current year score of 70%. Highest scoring dis-tricts were Nassau (75%) and St. Johns (78%), always in the top rankings.

The scores have not yet been released for grades four through ten English Language Arts writing (giv-en April 1-12), grades four through six ELA reading and grades three through six mathematics (given May 1 through 14), grades seven through 10 ELA reading and grades seven and eight math-ematics (given May 1-29). Also, not yet released are the

grades five and eight Science Next Generation Sunshine State Standards (NGSSS) as-sessments (given May 1-14) and some end of course as-sessments in Biology 1, Civ-ics and U.S. History (some of which were given in May, with others upcoming July 15-26).

The next testing window will begin next school year with end of course assess-ments in Algebra 1 and Ge-ometry, tenth grade retakes for the FSA reading and writing tests, as well as that for Algebra 1.

School officials are pleased with the performance of Union’s third graders and with the district’s continued placement in the top ten in the state in this area.

Oh very youngWhat will you leave us this time?You’re only dancing on this earth for a short whileAnd though your dreams may toss and turn you nowThey will vanish away like your daddy’s best jeansDenim blue fading up to the sky

And though you want them to last foreverYou know they never willYou know they never willAnd the patches make the goodbye harder still

Oh very youngWhat will you leave us this time?There’ll never be a better chance to change your mindAnd if you want this world to see a better dayWill you carry the words of love with you?Will you ride the great white bird into heaven?

And though you want to last foreverYou know you never willYou know you never willAnd the goodbye makes the journey harder still

Will you carry the words of love with you?Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

Oh very youngWhat will you leave us this time?You’re only dancing on this earth for a short whileOh very youngWhat will you leave us this time? —Cat Stevens, songwriter

O young Mariner,Down to the haven,Call your companions,Launch your vessel,And crowd your canvas,And, ere it vanishesOver the margin,After it, follow it,Follow The Gleam.— Alfred, Lord Tennyson (1889)

ing and the repair of the cen-ter after it was damaged by a fire just before Christmas last year. Much of the total will be paid for by insurance and by money already ear-marked for work and materi-als to update the center pro-vided for in last year’s city

budget.As of May 20, the total cost

of the renovation is about $117,317, including one out-standing invoice from Jen-kins Electric that has been estimated to be $10,000. Much of this cost was due to smoke damage from the fire caused by an electrical short in an outlet, which made it neces-sary to replace items such as the air conditioning sys-tem, wall coverings, ceiling

and the sound system. Re-placement of the doors and windows had already been budgeted for prior to the fire. The chairs and tables used in the building for events (both city and rentals) were dam-aged by the fire itself and all required replacement at a cost of $3,121.

Restorers and workers mad several discoveries of note removing damaged ma-terials from the building to

get ready for the repairs and renovation. Workers discov-ered that the floors of the structure were made of quite valuable terrazzo tile, caus-ing the city to decide to re-store the floors rather than replace them. Another dis-covery came when the sound absorbing carpet, damaged by the smoke from the fire, was removed from the walls, revealing very attractive dis-tressed brick walls, which the commission decided to leave exposed, giving the in-terior a warmer feel.

The work has taken sever-al months, with city workers

doing as much as possible to keep costs down. Care was also taken to deal locally for most of the building supplies purchased by the city, with many of the items purchased at Jackson Building Supply and Farm Center.

Totals include $23,428 for the replacement of the air conditioner, with the work done by Wilson Heat and Air, floor restoration at a cost of $10,296 and insulation at a cost of $7,955. Plastering in the interior cost $11,071, with electrical work and supplies running $6,487. Other ex-penditures include curbing ($5,800), sound and security systems ($6,867), windows ($5,856), locks ($2,310), an ice maker ($476) and doors and countertops ($3,236).

The commission had de-cided that it desired to up-date the appearance of the facility to make it more ap-pealing for rental usage. It was decided to install a deco-

rative fountain and more at-tractive landscaping around the building to improve and modernize its appearance.

Once the work was sub-stantially complete, the city held an open house to allow the city’s stakeholders the opportunity to see what had been done. The event was catered by the local restau-rant Simmer Down and was attended by both members of the community and the city administration.

The Lake Butler Commu-nity Center is now open and available for rental, already having seen use by Union County 4-H for its end of year awards and for graduation related events, as well as other gathering. The rental fees from the building help to augment the city’s income and are budgeted as part of that. Income lost from the loss of rentals during the renovation was covered by the building’s insurance.

COSTSContinued from 1A

Improvements to Lake Butler’s Hal Y. Maines Community Center, located at Lakeside Park, include restored exterior and interior brick walls, restored �ooring, as well as a new fountain, seen left, and landscaping around the center.

FLORIDA GAS TRANSMISSION COMPANY, LLC Proposed Project in Columbia, Union, Putnam,

Clay, and Orange Counties, Florida

The Filing – May 31, 2019 On May 31, 2019, Florida Gas Transmission Company, LLC (FGT) filed an application for a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) to construct additional facilities to our existing interstate natural gas pipeline system. The project has been designated as our Putnam Expansion Project and the application has been assigned Docket No. CP19-474-000 at the FERC.

Florida Gas Transmission – Your clean energy partner

FGT is Florida’s leader and trusted partner in providing clean energy solutions, safely and reliably. FGT is an interstate pipeline company with offices in Maitland, Florida and Houston, Texas, and has employees at field offices along our vast pipeline system. FGT operates an approximately 5,344-mile natural gas pipeline system that runs from South Texas to Homestead, Florida. FGT has been supplying the majority of Florida’s natural gas needs for over 50 years through an extensive network of underground pipelines.

Putnam Expansion Project – Its scope and purpose The Putnam Expansion Project refers to FGT’s proposal to add (i) approximately 13.7 miles of 30-inch mainline loop extension (“West Loop”), beginning at MP 521.3 in Columbia County and ending at MP 535.0 in Union County, (ii) approximately 7.0 miles of 30-inch mainline loop extension from approximate MP 574.8 in Clay County to approximate MP 581.8 in Union County, (iii) install new automated valves and station piping at FGT’s existing Compressor Station 18 located at approximate MP 668.8 on FGT’s mainlines in Orange County, all located in Florida. (No project related activities will take place outside the fenced area of FGT’s Compressor Station 18.)

FGT proposes to commence construction in March 2021 in order to meet the customer’s requested in-service date for the project of January 2022.

The purpose of the Putnam Expansion Project is to provide additional firm transportation capacity up to 169,000 million British thermal units per day (MMBtu/d) of natural gas for Seminole Electric Cooperative, Inc. (SECI) to a delivery point located in Putnam County, Florida, to be utilized by SeaCoast Gas Transmission, LLC (SeaCoast) for intrastate transportation onward to an SECI generating station site near the City of Palatka, in Putnam County, Florida. Planned construction in your area. Please refer to the map for the location of facilities to be constructed in your area. A copy of our FERC application is available for viewing at the following locations:

How to obtain additional information FGT will also mail notices to affected landowners and governmental agencies describing the proposed Putnam Expansion Project and providing additional information, including a copy of the FERC’s brochure entitled “An Interstate Natural Gas Facility on My Land? What do I need to know?”. This brochure, which answers many frequently asked questions, may also be accessed through the FERC website address www.ferc.gov using the “eLibrary” link and the “For Citizens” link, respectively. Questions pertaining to interstate pipeline facility proceedings may be directed to the FERC’s Office of External Affairs at (202) 502-6088 or toll free at 1-866-208-3372 (TTY 1-202-502-8659) or by mail at 888 First Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20426.

One person is responsible for how his or her life turns out.

That was guest speaker Nickie Snyder’s message to the Bradford High School Class of 2019 during the May 31 commencement: taking ownership of one’s life.

“You’ve already come so far,” Snyder said, “but you still have a very long way to go. Life will not be easy, and it most certainly will not be fair, but each and every one of you is resilient. You are strong and have the power to define who you are and what

your life path will be.”Snyder, a BHS science teacher

who was the senior class sponsor, said she struggled with what to say when asked to be the guest speaker. Thanks to a conversation with her grandmother, she realized the most important thing she could tell the graduates was the truth.

The truth centered around a girl who rose above difficult situations to achieve what she wanted to in life.

Once upon a time…

Snyder told graduates a story — one that began with four familiar words.

“Once upon a time, there was this girl,” Snyder said. “She might have been the most reserved and defensive girl ever, but she had a reason to be. You see, by the time this girl had hit third grade, she had gone to eight different elementary schools, she had been evicted more than a couple dozen times, she had become very familiar with ridicule and the judgmental looks from other people, and she was very familiar with what it felt like to be hungry

and to go without.“Fast forward a few years,

and not much changed. Only now, instead of the girl just feeling isolated, we can sprinkle in a little bit of shame, some low self-esteem, maybe a wee bit of self-doubt and the sense of worthlessness due to circumstances completely beyond her control. Now these are things people struggle with every day, but when you’re young, these are difficult feelings

During their speeches at Bradford High School’s graduation commencement, Valedictorian Triston Taylor and Salutatorian Jade Baker expressed their beliefs that the members of the Class of 2019 are capable of doing great things and will do great things.

“All of you are amazing in some way,” Taylor said. “Now you get to prove it.”

Baker said, “Each person has

a path they expect to take and a road they expect to follow. There will be many of us who will change plans and take another road. No matter what path each and every one of us takes, I know that each person of the Class of 2019 will do things to change the world.”

Approximately 160 walked across the stage set up at David Hurse Stadium on May 31, wrapping up 12 years of studying and taking tests and ready to enter the next phase of their lives.

“So, guys, we made it,” Taylor said. “We all accomplished something tonight. Whether you studied your butt off or didn’t, you made it, and no one can take that away from you.”

Taylor gave a specific thank-you to BHS teacher and class sponsor Nickie Snyder, saying, “You are so incredible, and I will be eternally grateful for your counsel.”

Every graduate experienced hardships during their years in high school — hardships that made them all stronger in the end, Taylor said. However, he added that was all he was going to specifically mention about the last four years.

“I would spend my time reminiscing about what we did in high school,” he said, “but our parents are here, and they would

turn it into a lecture.”Taylor’s speech was filled

with other humorous moments, especially when it came to giving his classmates seven pieces of advice, including the key to his success.

“So, first things first,” Taylor said. “Do you want to know how I achieved so much? It’s known that caffeine helps with learning and memory, so when my mom bought a Keurig, I thanked her for buying me a Keurig.”

Taylor reminded his classmates that money doesn’t grow on trees and to find a hobby that didn’t involve the use of a debit card. He then told them to not be afraid to face difficulties.

“If video games have taught me anything, it’s that if the enemies are getting harder, then you’re going in the right direction. Besides, the only reason life would get harder is because the universe is intimidated by you, so you should take this opportunity to stop crying yourself to sleep at night and figure out what you’re doing right.”

Taylor said to also not be afraid of standing up for what you believe in. It doesn’t matter if you prefer iPhones over Androids or trucks over cars, he said.

“Maybe you eat ketchup with your macaroni. You’re not hurting anyone by eating ketchup with your macaroni,” Taylor said.

He couldn’t help but add a zinger to that point, saying, “Maybe you think pineapple

belongs on pizza. Well, there’s the gate. Get out.”

The advice continued with realizing that your parents were right along and going ahead and memorizing “those seven dinner dishes you’re going to cook yourself for the rest of your life.”

For his last point, Taylor said to realize you won’t be young forever.

“You know, one day you’re having the time of your life. The next, you’re referring to your knees as good knee and bad knee instead of left and right,” Taylor said. “One moment, you’ll be eating a tub of ice cream and bingeing on ‘Gray’s Anatomy’ at 3 a.m., and the next, you’ll be getting tired at 7:30. So take care of yourself now and have fun responsibly.”

Following the presentation of his life advice, Taylor addressed the parents and guardians of his classmates, saying, “I have noticed greatness in all of them. I know it. You know it. Now everyone else knows it. When you look at the program for tonight, and if you don’t see any special marks next to their name, write one yourself. Instead of just telling Facebook that your child has graduated, and they will go on to do great things in their life, tell Facebook about the talents and behavior that makes them great. You can tell everyone about the fire in their eyes, the determination in their minds and the courage in their hearts.”

In closing, Taylor said, “So friends and acquaintances, say your farewells, take that selfie and hug your friends for quite possibly the last time in your life tonight because tonight is our night, and tomorrow is the first day of the rest of our lives.”

Cherish life in a new, independent world

At the start of her speech, Baker said, “I’d just like to say if you knew me in high school, you knew everything I did was at the last minute, so I just finished writing this speech. If I could leave you with any life lesson, do not procrastinate.”

Baker followed with a list of thank-yous, the first of which went to God.

“He has made me into the person I am today,” she said. “Without my faith in God, I would not be standing in front of you all.”

Baker thanked her parents, Jay and Shona Baker, and her sisters for their support and encouragement and her best friend, Thelma, and her boyfriend, Cameron, “for making senior year more bearable and always forcing me to get up and come to school, even when I argue for just one more day to sleep in.”

Teachers — including her favorite, Teresa Jackson — were thanked not only for the work they did in the classroom, but for writing letters of recommendation for job, scholarship and college applications.

She, too, like Taylor, specifically thanked Snyder.

“Without you being the example and leader that you are for our class, we would not have accomplished and excelled in the things we have done over the past years,” Baker said.

Baker then added, “Without all the people in our lives, who have pushed us to be the best versions of ourselves, we would not be sitting in these chairs tonight.”

Throughout high school, students followed the directions their teachers gave them and usually got a preview of what was to come in a class by receiving an outline, Baker said.

“In light of that, this speech is probably the hardest thing I’ve

emergency treatment, it can lead to death. It results when your body temperature

rises to 104 degrees Fahrenheit or higher. In addition to a high body temperature,

the symptoms of heatstroke include altered mental state or behavior, nausea and

vomiting, flushed skin, rapid breathing and racing heart rate. Generally with heat

exhaustion, a patient is sweating a lot, whereas with heat stroke, they’ve stopped sweating and are actually dry. It’s a good

rule of thumb but isn’t always true.

The national high school graduation rate was 84.6 percent for 2016-17, according to data reported to the National Center for Data Statistics. The high school graduation rate in Bradford County was 78.2 percent the same year, according to the American Community Survey conducted by the United State Census Bureau.

According to the official website for Communities in Schools, students and families who are already struggling may have a difficult time figuring out what services are available in their community. A school-based coordinator can remove those barriers and determine which students are at risk of dropping out and help keep them on the path to graduation by providing local resources.

CIS of Bradford has site coordinators at Bradford High Bradford Middle schools.

Blythe Byrd, the new executive director at Communities in Schools of Bradford County Inc., is on a mission to increase the graduation rate of students in Bradford.

“Communities in Schools is the nation’s largest dropout

prevention organization, and our participants in the Take Stock in Children program have a 99-percent graduation rate,” Byrd said.

One program that falls under the CIS umbrella is Take Stock in Children. At the annual TSIC banquet, held May 16, Byrd’s inspiration reignited as mentors

Florida has 45 Take Stock in Children programs, with Bradford’s being the smallest. Yet the Bradford program was recognized for it’s big impact when it received the Small but Mighty Award at this past year’s state conference. Pictured with the award are (l-r) Linda Bennett, Take Stock in Children coordinator, Blythe Byrd and Cassey Bennett.

Dehydration happens when your body doesn’t have as much water as it needs. Without enough, your body can’t function properly. You can have mild, moderate, or severe dehydration depending on how much fluid is missing from your body. It’s normal to lose water from your body every day by sweating, breathing, peeing, and through tears and saliva (spit). Usually you replace the lost liquid by drinking fluids and eating foods that contain water. If you lose too much water or don’t drink and eat enough, you can get dehydrated. You can lose more water than usual with: a fever, Diarrhea, Vomiting, Excessive sweating, and excessive urination. Dehydration is more than just being thirsty. Other signs are dry mouth, fatigue, headaches, and dizziness. Symptoms: Signs of mild or moderate dehydration include: Thirst, Dry or sticky mouth, Not peeing very much, Dark yellow pee, Dry and cool skin, Headache, Muscle cramps.Signs of severe dehydration include: Not peeing or having very dark yellow pee, Very dry skin, Feeling dizzy, Rapid heartbeat, Rapid breathing. Sunken eyes, Sleepiness, lack of energy, confusion or irritability, Fainting. Severe dehydration is a medical emergency and needs to be treated immediately. Who’s at Risk? Anyone can get dehydrated, Who’s at Risk? Anyone can get dehydrated, Who’s at Risk?but the odds are higher for some people: Babies and young children are the most likely to have severe diarrhea and vomiting, and they lose the most water from a high fever. The youngest can’t tell you they’re thirsty or get their own drink. Older adults have less water in their bodies and often don’t realize they’re thirsty. If they can’t get around very well anymore, they may not be able to get a drink easily.People who are ill with a cold or sore throat may not want to eat or drink. People with a chronic disease such as type 2 diabetes can pee a lot if the disease is uncontrolled. They also may take medicines such as water pills, which make them go more often. People who are active outside in hot and humid weather sometimes can’t cool down effectively because their sweat doesn’t evaporate. This can lead to a higher body temperature and need for more water.

shared their personal experiences with their mentees who were graduating from high school.

“I would love to see us in all Bradford County schools,” Byrd said, “but we need more support and funding.”

Byrd previously worked as executive director for United Way of Putnam County before it dissolved in 2018 from lack of funding. She does not want to see the same happen to CIS.

“I’m sure people get sick of seeing me because I’m always asking for money, but we need to raise money because we have so many more kids that need help. My goal for this year is to raise $75,000 from corporate giving and fundraisers,” Byrd said.

Byrd has made multiple trips to Tallahassee to ask for government funding, but funding

was cut, so without help from the community, the nonprofit organization is limited in the

This graphic shows how Bradford High School graduation rates compared to state averages. In 2013-14, the BHS rate was below the state average, but adding first a part-time site coordinator in 2014-15 and a full-time site coordinator in 2015-16 boosted the BHS rate to above the state average. The rate fell slightly in 2016-17 when the site coordinator, due to illness, couldn’t work the whole year.

a good environment and good community involvement with our school system.

“We are fortunate to have such a program as CIS as it engages our kids in our community, improves self-esteem, reclaims our at-risk children and builds a creative workforce for our future.”

CIS offers are after-school tutoring to middle school and high school students; and CISTO, which provides free transportation for eligible Bradford County residents seeking employment or education.

CIS holds multiple fundraisers annually such as a glow run,

Kentucky Derby party and golf tournament. The organization relies on corporate sponsors to make donations in return for advertising at the events.

Community State Bank is a platinum sponsor. Its CEO and president, Jeff Oody, is also a Communities in Schools board member.

to contend with.”Snyder said the girl learned

that life isn’t easy or fair, but she kept getting back up every time life knocked her down.

“She learned she was resilient, she learned she had strength and she learned that she had the power to define who she was and the path her life took,” Snyder said. “This lesson, more than anything else, changed her life forever.”

Snyder said the graduates, like the girl, have endured difficult times, come face to face with loss and uncertainty and learned just how unfair life sometimes is.

“Sadly, these are things that will always be a part of your life,” Snyder said. “Sometimes we invite them through our own bad decisions. Sometimes they are completely beyond our control, but there’s one thing you always have control over, and that is how we choose to deal with the difficulties. We can allow them to beat us down, or we can rise above them.”

The girl of Snyder’s story wanted desperately to rise above and break the pattern of her still-young life. She wanted to one day to have a home she’d never be evicted from. She wanted clothes that fit. She wanted to eat three meals a day and never be hungry.

“She wanted a lot,” Snyder

said, “but before any of this could be realized, the girl had to do something else. She had to recognize that she had worth, that she deserved the happiness that she wanted. The same goes for all of you.”

Snyder asked the graduates if they ever felt like their dreams were too big or that they weren’t good enough to make them happen. Perhaps, they’ve thought they should settle for something less.

“Well, don’t do it,” Snyder said. “Don’t ever settle for less than what you aspire to — ever — because you deserve happiness, and you can make your dreams a reality. Each and every one of you has value, something uniquely you that makes the world a better place.

You all are worthy and deserving of the opportunity to build a life that makes you happy, but just dreaming about something isn’t enough to make it happen.”

Having grit, owning up to failures

How was the girl of Snyder’s story going to make the life for herself that she wanted? Snyder said she realized it was going to take effort on her part.

“If you want something, you have to work for it,” Snyder said. “You have to persevere, to not give up, to have grit. Do you know what that is? Do you know what grit is? It’s such a small word, but it carries a ton of weight. See, grit is courage. It’s resolve, it’s strength, and it’s humility. It’s failing over and over and over and over, and then getting back up and giving it another go.

“Do you have grit? Do you have what it takes to face the challenges ahead of you? To struggle, to fail and to not give up? The bigger the dream, the more it means to you and the more precious and valuable it is, the harder it’s going to be to achieve.”

Snyder said the last thing the girl realized she had to do to make the life she wanted was to take responsibility for her failures as well as her successes.

“See, if outside forces are holding you back, other people

are preventing you from reaching your goals, situations are at fault when you hit a setback and the universal hatred of you is why you failed, then it’s outside forces that push you forward. It’s other people who are the reason you reach your goals. It’s the situation, not you, that made that promotion possible, and your success had nothing to do with you. The planets just finally decided to align.

“It’s so easy to skirt responsibility when things go wrong, but the truth is that in order to take responsibility for when things go right, you have to take ownership of the successes and the failures that led to them. This is one of those things that is definitely easier said than done, but if you can learn to do this, to admit when you mess up, to own up to your own failings, to take responsibility instead of making excuses, you will have learned one of life’s ultimate truths: Success only comes when you allow yourself to learn from failure.”

The girl of the story felt like she was moving backward instead of forward at times, but she never gave up, Snyder said.

“She never stopped fighting, never stopped pushing herself, because she knew she deserved the life she dreamed of,” Snyder said. “She knew she was worth it. She knew that this was something she could do for herself and something she could

truly be proud of.”

A desired outcomeSo, what became of the girl?

Her story had a happy ending.“Now today, the girl considers

herself to be extremely successful” Snyder said. “She worked her way through college and set out in the career of her

dreams. She goes to work every day loving what she does. She has a husband who supports all she does, two phenomenal boys who fill her with pride every day and a home that no one could ever take away from her.”

Snyder was almost brought to tears when she mentioned the girl’s two “phenomenal boys.” You see, if graduates hadn’t already guessed it, the girl is Snyder.

“On this day — May 31, 2019 — she has this message for all of you,” Snyder said. “I know you. I know what you’re capable of. I know your worth. I pray that you know it, too.

“Hold onto your dreams for your future. Do not let them go. Do not let them waver. Do not stop fighting for them. No matter how many times you get pushed down, get back up and push forward. Own your failings, learn from them and embrace your successes.”

had to do in a long time,” Baker said. “It made me realize that we, the Class of 2019, will be stepping into a world of independence, where we are required to make decisions without directions, without someone guiding us. We must learn how to do things by ourselves from now on. We will make mistakes, and we will be forced to learn from them, to grow ourselves through these mistakes.

“Now, Class of 2019, don’t forget to laugh at the mistakes and learn something new each time.”

Baker encouraged her classmates to cherish life and to do what it takes to reach their goals.

“Don’t be afraid to fight for the things you want and do what it takes to achieve your most inspired dreams,” Baker said. “Don’t take life for granted, but view it as the precious, God-given gift it is.”

Time is a gift, also, Baker said, thinking out loud about what things would be like in the future for her class.

“Before you know it, we will back for our 10-year reunion, most likely not doing the things we thought we’d be doing in 10 years,” Baker said. “Elise will probably be running the entire school system, Thelma will probably be forcing kids to actually go outside and grow vegetables, Hannah will probably be a model in LA, forgetting about the rest of us, and Triston will be finding a cure for diseases that no one knew existed and probably couldn’t pronounce anyway. Lastly, Autumn will be preparing to run for president of the United States.”

Baker said the plans she and her classmates have in the present could change in the future, but whatever the plan, it is God’s in the end.

“God has a plan for each one of our futures,” Baker said. “Jeremiah 29:11 says, ‘For I know the plans I have for you,
