Achievement

After working very hard for three years in a program, I was finally recognized.
I don't mean that as a bragging right, or as some vain attempt for attention...
I mean that as a complete statement of pride.
I'm proud that my University and my department honored me and my boyfriend for our hard work.
I feel as if I jumped over a hurdle.

It may be that it is one insignificant win.
It may be that I am making too much of it.
But really, I feel as if I have now proven myself to my peers, and that feels great.
The bar is set just a little bit higher now.

I will rise to the occasion.
