To the Students of the 3rd High School of the islands of the Holy Metropolis of Syros, Hay, Andros, Keas, Μήλου, Mykonos, Kythnos, Sheriff, Sifnos, Kimolos, Folegandros & Sikinou
My dear children,
the thought, my wishes and prayers, who are always near you, they support your efforts and support your dreams, are becoming more intense these days, as the labors of a long and painstaking effort are tested through the process of the National Examinations, where, Good or bad, is a starting point for starting your new path.
The test itself is perhaps the first of many, big or small in your life, it is definitely an opportunity but not the last and perhaps not the greatest, since values in life are not determined by degrees alone, but from deep spirituality, morality, faith in God and love for fellow man.
After all, the cycle of the struggle we all make to meet and fulfill our dreams never closes!
With calmness and composure, trusting in the Grace of God, yourself and your knowledge, you will always emerge victorious in life's battles!
I wish you a "HAPPY HOME" with all my heart and I assure you that I will always be by your side, sympathizing with your difficulties, boasting, along with your parents and teachers, on your progress and congratulating on your successes.
With paternal wishes and love
† THE SYROUS DOROTHEOS II
