See a Stop, Take a Pause, Add Your Graffiti.
    
More than 100 Gratitude Graffiti Stops have been set up throughout all Kent State campuses. Have you contributed your gratitude graffiti? 
    
During April, you are encouraged to "see a stop, take a pause, and add your gift of gratitude." 
    
It's easy to get caught up in all the "to do's" of the day. The gratitude stop is intended to encourage you to "stop." Take a moment to appreciate your surroundings, persons or events that may have transpired earlier that day, week or year, or embrace an anticipated blessing in your future. Here are a few things to consider as you consider the gifts in your life: 
    
•Focus on the people you are grateful for, as this tends to have more impact than focusing on "things." 
    
•Note events that were unexpected or surprising, as these tend to elicit strong levels of gratitude. 
    
•Goodness doesn't have to be grandiose, or expensive, or entertaining. Goodness and “good days" can be right here, right now, all the time. 
    
We look forward to all the gifts an attitude of gratitude brings to bear. To see a full list of where you can find a gratitude stop, visit our directory. And, if you're in New York City in April, stop by our NY Fashion Design Studio and add a splash of gratitude to their stop!
