#WeAreWestFel #WelcomeBack #GrowthMindset
Milton's Monday Message
August 6, 2018
Some people say that a butterfly flapping its wings in Japan can cause a hurricane in Louisiana. Any one of us, however small and helpless we may feel, can spark unimagined changes. Today's small act of kindness can become tomorrow's whirlwind of human progress.
