Quoting RI President: In life, everything is a choice. We can choose to close our eyes to the needs of the

others, to keep what we have for ourselves, to declare the problems of others to be theirs alone, Or we can choose to look past distance, past color, past language and dress and culture, and see that people

everywhere is just like us-and then refuse to walk away.”

“True Guidance is like a small Lamp in a Dark Forest It Doesn't Show Everything at Once,

But gives enough Light to get to the Next Step to be Safe”
