Each of us is of infinite value,
and each of us has the ability to make
a profound difference in the lives we touch.
We leave our most profoundly positive impact
on those around us by the nature of our lives

or how important we believe we are.

regardless of external circumstances,
is a great legacy for our family and for the world.

Focusing one's whole life on responsibilities,
without taking time for self-renewal and play,
abandons the joy and the true value of life.

as well from as having the perspective of imagination -

inhabited by futurists and science-fiction writers.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

I know that all work is Thy work, and that no task is too difficult
