Good morning my DU family,

Beauty is defined by Miriam Webster as
"the quality or group of qualities in a person or thing that gives pleasure to the senses or the mind"

There is such beauty here at DU, in such variety that every day here becomes a teacher, a friend, a reporter, a therapist, a confessional, and a tour guide.

The beauty that flows from your descriptive words, your emotional experience, your incredible heart, your understanding empathy.

Your visible bonds with those whose hands you'll never hold, whose faces you may never see, whose laugh you'll never hear, and yet, you share our tears, our grief, our loss.
You celebrate our achievements, you encourage our every effort, and you experience the results as if they were your own.

DU Readers, you are Beauty's living representatives, her choreographer, her conductor. You are her messenger, her deliverers.

Please give us a day filled with opportunities to be the beauty that another eye can behold.

Have a beautiful day DU,
Love, John
