In My Ninety-plus Years, I Have Learned

Love Is The Only Force That Can Erase The Differences Between People, That Can Heal Relationships Shattered By Bitterness....i F The World Is To Be Improved, The Process Of Love Must Make A Change In The Hearts Of Men. It Can Do So When We Look Beyond Self To Give Our Love To God And Others, And Do So With All Our Heart, With All Our Soul, And With All Our Mind.

I Would That The Healing Power Of Christ Might Spread Over The Earth And Be Diffused Through Our Society And Into Our Homes, That It Might Cure Men's Hearts Of The Evil And Adverse Elements Of Greed And Hate And Conflict. I Believe It Could Happen. I Believe It Must Happen. If The Lamb Is To Lie Down With The Lion, Then Peace Must Overcome Conflict, Healing Must Mend Injury.

In All This World There Is No Substitute For Personal Integrity. It Includes Honor. It Includes Performance. It Includes Keeping One's Word. It Includes Doing What Is Right Regardless Of The Circumstances

Imagine How Our Own Families, Let Alone The World, Would Change If We Vowed To Keep Faith With One Another, Strengthen One Another, Look For And Accentuate The Virtues In One Another, And Speak Graciously Concerning One Another. Imagine The Cumulative Effect If We Treated Each Other With Respect And Acceptance, If We Willingly Provided Support. Such Interactions Practiced On A Small Scale Would Surely Have A Rippling Effect Throughout Our Homes And Communities And, Eventually, Society At Large.

When I Say Do Your Best, I Mean Your Very Best. You Are Capable Of So Much More.
