Dwight D. EisenhowerAs you sow in your subconscious mind, so shall you reap in your body and environment. Whatever your conscious mind assumes and believes to be true, your subconscious mind will accept and bring to pass. Whatever you habitually think sinks into the subconscious. The subconscious is the seat of the emotions and is a creative mind. Once subconscious accepts an idea, it begins to execute it. Whatever you feel is true, your subconscious will accept and bring forth into experience.

And then the real work begins - changing, eradicating, starting again, and so on, until it's done.

Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.The privacy and dignity of our citizens is being whittled away by sometimes imperceptible steps. Taken individually, each step may be of little consequence.

Joan DidionBefore you begin your journey toward integrity, you need to determine your starting point. In other words, what's your integrity quotient? How much integrity do you have?

You can't hold yourself accountable if you won't see yourself clearly.

The destruction of lives and hopes, the emotional trauma, and the economic, social, and political marginalization of the displaced, the human insecurity, with real and potentially devastating consequences over generations, in ever-widening arenas of conflict. We can and must ensure the human rights of the displaced. That begins by making their voices heard.

All of us have our reasons, innumerable, personal and complex. From many points of view a climb is a challenge we must meet.
