Gratitude for SLCC, my favorite college ever

I’m thankful for Salt Lake Community College because it has opened its doors so I can get a degree.

I’m able to better understand the world with the education I gain. Reflecting on the events of the past, I think that there is always a fight for survival. It is hard to live a life in peace and tranquility. Confrontation and distress come from everywhere. The events of 9/11, the economic recession of 2008, declining of salaries and the increasing costs of living have made me understand that there are more complicated times coming. It is imperative to receive more knowledge and wisdom to cope with new challenges in life.
