Things are not as they seem.
You were born into a world at war.
Everything you do counts. Life is filled with choices; right and wrong are often politically obscured. Our difficult task, discerning what is right and standing firm. It requires grace, broad understanding, and an open mind to the thoughts and needs of others, and it requires courage in the face of personal loss. The world our children will inherit is shaped by our choices.
There is no easy path to what is right and good.
