Hmmm?? What is the value of your college education?

Students, friends, colleagues,
What is the value of a college education? What about YOUR education?
Listen.

...better late than never, WELCOME! to a new semester!

Here is a short reading to help us challenge ourselves into living & thinking in the moment, hence making great work...


Everything you take for granted is a blessing. 
Everything you fear is a friend in disguise. 
Everything you want is a part of you. 
Everything you hate you hate about yourself. 
Everything you own does not define you. 
Everything you feel is the only Truth there is to know.
Everything you wish for is already on its way to you. 
Everything you think creates your life. 
Everything you seek for you will find. 
Everything you resist will stick around. 
Everything you let go of stays if it’s supposed to. 
Everything you need is right where you are.

Every time you bless another your bless yourself. 
Every time you blame another you lose your power. 
Every time you think you can, you can. 
Every time you fall you must get up and try again. 
Every time you cry you’re one tear closer to joy. 
Every time you ask for forgiveness, all you have to do is forgive yourself.

Everyone you see is your reflection. 
Everyone you know mirrors you. 
Everyone wants to be happy. 
Everyone wants to live in joy. 
Everyone seeks a higher purpose. 
Everyone breathes the same breath. 
Everyone needs love to survive. 
Everyone has a purpose to fulfill.

Everyone’s the same as everyone else. 
We just get caught up in labels, names, skin color and religion. 
Everyone’s the same as everyone else. 
No one wants to feel the pain. 
Everyone’s the same as everyone else. 
Everyone is dying for love to remain.


- Jackson Kiddard
