| Introduction | Goal - I think that I'm a rather selfish person. I really want to try to strive to follow the creed of my favorite prayer, The Prayer of Saint Francis of Assisi - Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow love; where there is injury,pardon; where there is doubt, faith; where there is despair, hope; where there is darkness, light; and where there is sadness, joy. O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console; to be understood as to understand; to be loved as to love. For it is in giving that we receive; it is in pardoning that we are pardoned... but what is the first step, where to start? |
