I do NOT believe we are all born equal.
Physical and emotional differences, parental guidance, varying environments,
being in the right place at the right time, all play a role in enhancing
or limiting an individual's development. But I DO believe every man
and woman, if given the opportunity and encouragement to recognize his
or her potential, regardless of background, has the freedom to choose in
our world. Will an individual be a taker or a giver of life?
Will that person be satisfied merely to exist or seek a meaningful purpose?
Will he or she dare to dream the impossible dream?
I Believe every person is created as the steward
of his or her own destiny with great power of a specific purpose:
to share with others, through service, a reverence for life in the spirit
of love.
