And let today embrace the past with remembrance and the future with longing. It ' s time to leave . . . Our beginning is coming to a close and so we look toward tomorrow . . . But let ' s look at yesterday and today. We arrived here alone and began our adventure together slowly, carefully, not sure of what was expected or sure of what we wanted. But during our time we gave up our loneliness and insecurities. We gained new friends, confidence in ourselves and a special feeling which cannot be defined by words . . . We leave so much stronger for we have shared deeply. I look at all of you and smile. . . for you are my friends.
