The Encouragement
Okay, please forgive the lack of encouragement last week…sometimes itjust seems so hard to find it. We don’t want to offer you the typicaland sometimes cheesy leadership quotes to inspire you or cause your eyesto roll. We want to meet you where you are, truly encourage you, makeyou think, and let you know we care about you and your life. Times mayseem tough right now and we understand that, we’re in it too. Throughoutthis semester we want to remind you that you have been afforded theopportunities to be at least OKAY in life…and you will be, and probablymore than that. And even when you want to fear and cling andfreak…appreciate what you’ve got, trust, and keep giving to what youbelieve in.
The encouragement this week: remember what you love about being here,acknowledge it, and take a moment to appreciate it. And smile.
