Recently, Terry Bradshaw, who is a four time Super Bowl quarterback, inspires a sold out audience in the 2021 Farmers Bank and Trust at Southern Arkansas University to embrace opportunities and finding reasons to be thankful everyday.
Our President at SAU, Trey Berry, opened up with these words: "Tonight is all about our students,” he said, stressing the importance of SAU’s history with Farmers Bank & Trust. “You can drive around this campus, in any direction, and see the influence of Farmers Bank. It was here from the very beginning Berry announced Kimber Birdsong of Prescott, Arkansas, and Seth Horn of Farmington, Arkansas, as the recipients of the Farmers Bank & Trust Scholarship. “Thanks to Farmers Bank for its indelible impact on generations of students,” Berry said. Elizabeth Burns Anderson, who is the executive director of the Farmers Bank Foundation, continues by announcing the creation of the Dr. Bob Burns Endowment Fund, which will provide scholarships for generations to come. Bradshaw used is humor and stories of football as inspiration to the audience. Bradshaw also stresses the importance of leadership and living life joyfully rather than living life with temporary happiness. Bradshaw also speaks on how he never seemed to lose faith throughout life.
Bradshaw gave many encouraging words and as I read this article, what stood out to me is never losing faith. Throughout college and life, we should never lose faith. Whether we believe in different things, we still share common goals to never lose faith and to live life joyfully.
