Graduation: Touching one-liners to add to a group message. Heartfelt messages (41–50)
My senior was a wonderful person I could rely on in times of trouble.
A senior you can rely on when you’re in trouble… Didn’t you have someone like that, too? Even though they’re probably not much older, seniors seem so knowledgeable, experienced, and somehow larger than life.
I’m sure many of you felt you could be at ease and do your best because they were there.
At graduation, be sure to express your gratitude and admiration with these words.
And next, it’s your turn to protect and lead your juniors.
If you add that determination to your message, your seniors will be able to graduate with peace of mind.
My senior was like the sun to me.
The sun that shines on us brightly with its warm light… Do you have someone like that in your life? Someone who never stops smiling no matter what and always encourages everyone.
Someone who, even when they were struggling more than you, worried only about you when you were feeling down.
If you had such a kind and wonderful senior, be sure to send them these words in a message board! Let them know that their smile always gave you strength, that you were able to enjoy your time because they were there—your gratitude will surely come through.
I have never met anyone as kind as you, Senpai.
I think becoming a kind person is difficult.
It’s easy to just say kind words, but the people we call “kind” are probably those who always act with the other person’s best interests in mind.
I’m sure your senior is that kind of person too—someone who, while sometimes scolding you, was always by your side and listened to you.
It’s not easy to find chances to express your gratitude in everyday life, so at this milestone of graduation, please give them these words and let them know how thankful you are.
I’m grateful to be able to express my thanks at this moment of graduation.
Whether it’s a friend or a younger colleague, it’s not easy to put feelings of gratitude into words.
We can usually say “thank you” when someone does something for us, but there aren’t many chances to express our sincere, all-encompassing gratitude for everything up to now.
So why not use a graduation message board to put all of that appreciation into words for the graduates? Words that say you even feel happy to have this chance to express your thanks will surely make the recipient feel happy too.
Instead of leaving with sadness, help them head into graduation with a happy heart by using these words.
I’m always on your side.
Saying goodbye to the school you’re used to and the friends and teachers you’ve spent time with.
Even if you’re excited about a new place and a new way of life, the anxiety tends to feel stronger, doesn’t it? Will I be able to handle it…? Will I be able to have as much fun as before…? Especially in an unfamiliar place, once you start feeling anxious, it can be hard to shake it off.
At times like that, seeing the words “I’m always on your side” can make your heart feel a little lighter.
Just knowing there’s someone you can rely on can give you the strength to keep going!
Even if we’re far apart, I’ll come running anytime for 〇〇.
We may be separated by graduation, but I’ll come running anytime for you… Those words really warm the heart.
They’re exactly what I’d love for you to give to friends who are graduating and to the underclassmen about to graduate.
A message board full of memories that will surely become a treasure will be even more special with this, no doubt! Facing new challenges in a new environment makes everyone anxious and scared.
But with allies by your side, there’s so much more you can overcome.
If things get tough, call me! If there’s someone you want to say that to, try writing these words.
In conclusion
