Graduation Night

Chris walking into Commencement. I was on the other side of the stadium so I wasn't able to get a lot of pictures at this ceremony. There were some great speeches given for the graduates. One piece of advice we really like was that you can learn something from everyone. He quoted President Eyring when he shared the story of his father (who was a well educated man) who, when stopped at a service station got out of his car to visit with the young man pumping his gas. When he climbed back into the car young President Eyring asked why he talked to that boy. His father responded by telling his boy that this young man had had experiences that he hadn't and that you can learn something form everyone. No matter what station in life we are, we can always learn something from the experiences of others. What a great message!
