May You Catch Your Dreams and Make Them True

Today we salute two fine young men graduating from high school -- Mitchell Habeger and Nathan Weiland. Both are exemplary young adults who, we pray, will be successful in the things they feel called to do in life.

Here is some semi-useful information for them and for other high school graduates this May, 2009.

If you are graduating,You have been in school now for approximately 2160 days.

You have spent 12,960 hours in classes. That translates into 777,600 minutes.

So far you’ve lived approximately 18 years. You’ve been around 216 months.

You have been breathing 936 weeks. You’ve been in this earthly realm for 6,552 days. You’ve been here 157,248 hours. You’ve been here in this life for 9,434,880 minutes.

In that time you’ve slept approzimately 52,500 hours. The average person your age has watched T.V. 12,173 hours,and spent 7,488 hours eating (usually with a lot of pizza and burgers in the mix).

WHEN YOU ARRIVED,YOU WERE MORE THAN LIKELY WRINKLED, RED, BALD, TOOTHLESS, CRYING, COMPLAINING, AND YOU HAD NO CLOTHES ON.

YOU HAVE COME A LONG WAY IN 18 YEARS. HOW MUCH FARTHER WILL YOU GO? WE HOPE AND PRAY YOU WILL GO FAR ENOUGH TO CATCH YOUR DREAMS AND MAKE THEM TRUE.
