Gratitude

9/26/11 Gratitude           

Delta College is a community supported endeavor. And, we are here only for one reason, to facilitate student success. We have the opportunity to be thankful for the interactions we get to have with our VERY diverse student, alumni and coworker community of customers. But being thankful is not enough. William Arthur Ward said, “Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it.” Gratitude is an investment that costs naught but a second, yet pays in virtually immeasurable dividends of good will, increased productivity and positive feelings.  You were given 86,400 seconds today. Could you spend just one of them saying, “Thank you”? And, please accept my thanks to you for your gift to us of your time, talents and positive attitude. YOU make this office and college a great place to work, learn and grow.
