The great German mystic and philosopher, Meister Eckhart, once wrote that “if the only prayer you ever say in your entire life is thank you, it will be enough.”
We have so much that preoccupies us today that it is easy to take for granted those simple joys that are everyday gifts. I hope never to be so ungracious that I fail to express my thanks to:
- all of the students who trust us with their education
- all of the family members and communities that trust us with their students
-all of the faculty and staff who work tirelessly every day for the success of our students and our college
-all of our government officials, private sector partners, and colleagues around the state who help us to do our good work
-all of our donors and investors who help give us the resources we need
-all of the public safety officers, security personnel, and service men and women who help make us safe enough to do our work
I do appreciate the mission that Germanna Community College serves, but I appreciate even more those who make that mission real through their work every day of every year.
Thank you.
David
