“Life is what we make it — is still the basis of happiness and success. ” In IF,” Kipling tries to lead us to a fantastic life by setting up some basic morals and truths to follow. These are not to confine our dreams and desires, but to guide them. Each one of us is filled with bright, vast dreams, goals, and expectations no matter who he or she is. But far too often we tend to think only of ourselves, and miss a vital part of FRIENDSHIP — that of LISTENING and SHARING with others. Through this encounter would come a startling realization — the fact that everyone has something totally unique to offer. It may be a piece of advice or a quotation from a famous philosopher, an outlook into the future or just anything which distinguishes him from all others. Since we all have our own separate goals to strive for in the manner of which the individual chooses, no two will look upon life in exactly the same way. Therefore, we have no way to determine which path is the correct one. But, by our actions, the friends we choose, and the activities we partake in, we are showing people who we are and why we’re here. Since everyone has a different reason for living and enjoying this earth, it’s up to us to seek out our meaning and pursue it till we reach our goal. If it seems feasible, DO IT! If your goals are high, then STRIVE TO ACHIEVE! Do whatever it takes to make your life the most fulfilling and rewarding experience that you possibly can. TRUST in others! In return, they may confide in you; if you cause others harm and mistrust, you are only causing pains for yourself. Never lose FAITH, HOPE, and TRUST for they will take you everywhere and help you out of anything. HAPPINESS — it’s an internal feeling; one of the satisfactions of giving, of accomplishment, of self- fulfillment, and of the awareness that YOU are somebody. Do not walk in the shadow of another for your light may never shine. And, most important of all: BE YOURSELF!! 6

As we look back upon our years at Fairhaven High School, many fond memories of very special people come to mind. They were there when we needed them most — whether it was through a ■ ' T gesture, a piece of advice, a word, or a smile, these people always seemed to be around. And so, it is with great pride that we dedicate this yearbook to OUR TEACHERS! This book expresses our gratitude for the invaluable service which you have so faithfully given. You have helped us to grow and to find our way; you have made us feel special. For this we shall be forever thankful. The Class of 1977
