EDITORIAL iirjnjjj] REASON I liave my eyes shut is that I ' m afraid someone is looking at me! I heard a little boy say this in great fear of a pushing, crowded department store. He was clinging to his mother ' s coat and absolutely refused to open his eyes. His thought was amusing and naive as only a child ' s thoughts can be, but as I remembered the incident later, I realized that in one sentence he had disclosed a truth often avoided or missed by his elders. How many of us have withheld our help in the fear of being rejected? How many of us have given up an ideal in the fear of someone else ' s laughter? How many of us have at times refrained from putting forth our best effort? In short, how many of us have not walked for a time with our eyes shut? As the year comes to an end, the graduating class looks back upon previous school years. Suddenly we become a little sad to leave, and we wish that time would wait and let us once again enjoy ourselves in past friendships and dreams before we head into the future. Perhaps we would like a second chance to open our eyes where they once were shut. Inevitably, though, we will remember our school days at Trafal- gar. If we have all tried our best at everything, and if we keep ou r eyes open, then our memories are bound to be happy, and also a good foundation for our future. [13]
