Here is something to bring a smile to your face! Graduating seniors across the US are hearing plenty of advice from family, friends and teachers, but what about advice from another type of senior: a senior citizen.

Residents at Waltonwood Cary Parkway, a premier senior living community, understand graduations aren’t happening as they normally would, so they wanted to share some words of encouragement to those who were expected to walk across the stage. The seniors recently took photos detailing where they graduated from, the year they graduated and advice for graduates. From “don’t sweat the small things” to “always be true to yourself” the seniors want graduating seniors (from both college and high school) to know they are being thought of, and at the end of the day everything will be okay.
