And, I smile.

At what moment in your life did you feel most proud?The moment I was handed my college diploma. In that walk across the stage, I realized that I had made it. I had my chance to make a better life for myself, and in that moment, I knew I'd succeeded. I shook the dean's hand, and went back to my seat, with a smile a mile wide on my face

I like to believe that things happen for a reason. Sounds so stupid when things around you are falling apart, but after things settle down you realize that some things...well, they do happen for something. You deserve great things, Lily; and you're doing it all on your own. You have every right to feel proud. Congratulations.
