“我们有广阔的未来. Say thank you for the experiences gained and the lessons learned. Now It's time to apply it 'to the real world.' Hopefully, most of you are excited for this change to come."
Elder told her fellow graduates that everything in life will not be an ice cream sundae with sprinkles on top - and life will not always go in ways you plan.
