We are both burdened and blessed by the great responsibility of the will - the power of choice. Our future is determined, in large part, by the choices we make now. We cannot always control our circumstances, but we can and do choose our response to whatever arises. Reclaiming the power of choice, we find the courage to live fully in the world.

My parents, like others of The Greatest Generation who lived through the Great Depression and World War II, wanted to provide the best possible life for their children.
