Thirty of my former high-school students — who are now making their ways out in the world — volunteered to participate in ink + sky’s first Postcard Project. I am grateful for their honesty, their candor, and their willingness to take a risk.
By disclosing what they are trying to figure out, these young men and women are revealing a part of their inner selves. This courageous decision requires the willingness to be vulnerable, which is one of the most powerful acts that a person can demonstrate.
Your thoughtful comments are welcomed below. The author of this postcard will value your affirmations and kindness. Thank you.

I left a message on this post that is somewhat relevant to you, as well: https://inkandsky.com/2019/02/27/postcard_5/#comments. Gap years are wonderful! I do a lot of work with students and *highly* recommend them. I hope yours is filled with lots of wonder and new discoveries!

Thanks for sharing your thoughts! I believe that taking a gap year can be exponentially beneficial to your future. Make the most of every new experience, and listen to the wisdom of your mentors. They will guide you to your pursuit for success! Don’t forget to take time for yourself as well, and to sit back and enjoy everything in the moment along the way. Best of wishes on your journey!
