My graduation ceremony was an unforgettable moment, marking the culmination of an intense and enriching journey. After years of research, writing, and learning, it was an overwhelming feeling to celebrate my work with family, friends, and colleagues. The challenge of pursuing a doctorate not only advanced me academically but also helped me grow personally. During the ceremony, I realized how much the effort had been worth it. This day was not just an endpoint of my studies but also the beginning of a new chapter in my academic career.
