In my own family I had two cousins graduating from Prairie View A&M and a little over 1000 miles away my Baltimore home girl Cydne was getting her sheepskin from Coppin State.
I bounced out of my undisclosed location for a few hours to attend his graduation party, tell him how proud I was of him and even drop a few words of wisdom to both graduates along with many of our assorted relatives and friends.
So I wanted to take the time to say to my cousins Ray and Patrick, Cydne and all you December college grads who read TransGriot, congratulations.
May your road of life be a superhighway to success with few roads blocks, speed traps and potholes.
TransGriot update: found out Cydne graduated magna cum laude from Coppin State! Way to go sis!
