l li l i i his 1966 -l il 'i i i t l l L l i i i l l l l i l l l TO THE GRADUATES OF 1966: AS YOU GO FORTH You are preparing to leave the hallowed walls of Saint Augustine's, come May 29, 1966, as its sons and daughters. You will have earned a prized possession - a college diploma. This diploma will open many doors for you, However, the burden of the proof rests clearly upon you, not this document, to keep these doors open. Midst the tumult and the shouting of the world today, you can be assured that the road that lies ahead shall not be an easy one to trav- el. There will be many obstacles that must be overcome. There is no open sesame - a magic formula, as it were, for success as you go forth. There are. however, some time honored virtues that you should constantly strive to pursue as you move ahead toward life's journey. For your information, several of these objectives are mentioned here. These objectives, it is hoped, will deepen your purpose, broaden your perspective and develop a right sense of proportion. First, try to maintain good health. This is the foundation of the good life . When good health is lost, many times it is difficult, if not impossible to regain. Second, tw to develop a right sense of values. ln other words, learn to place emphasis on those things that count most in the long run. Stated another way, it means that ability to accentuate the positive, to eliminate the negative and to forget about the area in between. Third, secure for yourself a happy home life, and sustain good rela- tionships between yourselves as parents and your children. Then, too. honor your own parents, as you would have your children honor you. Develop a felicitous manner of living which gives the home, school. and the Church adequate places in your life plan. Fourth, seek a job in keeping with your abilities, training, limita- tions, and experience, Put the best in whatever vocation you follow. A job worth doing is worth doing well. The important thing in this connection is not to be afraid or ashamed to do honest work. This is especially important, because it might not be possible for you to get the kind of job you want as you set out. One should bring dignity to whatever job he has. Do it well, re- gardless to its status. Better things come to those who do small things well. It has been well said, work out your salvation - and in the case of extreme disappointments, Edmund Burke has said, never despair. But it you do, work on in despair. Fifth, acquire the ability to enjoy reading good books, stimulating conversations with friends, profitable listening to lectures, enjoying one's leisure through indulgence in travel, exercise, sports, and the appreciation of music, art and literature. Sixth, accumulate a reasonable income in order to keep the wolf and want from your door. A reasonable amount of material things is both necessary and desirable: but one must not exert himself exclusively to the making of money to meet bills in time of sickness or other emergencies. Plan to own your own home early, and set up a systematic plan for doing so. Begin now to try to save ten cents at least out of every dollar you earn. Follow this as a kind of personal commitment. Seventh, develop good habits of living, which include sufficient sleep, rest, fresh air and sunshine, simple, sensible exercise, the ab- sence of greed, selfishness, unkindness and discourtesy. Eighth, develop a sustaining faith in God as the center of the uni- verse. This is most important in the lives of everyone. Without this faith, man is lost. One should learn early to develop this faith. Try to follow these objectives to the best of your ability, and per- haps one year, two years or three, evaluate yourself to see which direc- tion you are going. Bon Voyage! Sincerely, fi 77 ff 4 .
