“Between stimulus and response, there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. ” Viktor Frankl
PURE WATER SUSTAINS LIFE. CLEAN AIR BREATHES LIFE. GODS FOODS PURIFY LIFE. THESE BOUNTIES FROM CREATION ARE GOD GIVEN GIFTS FOR ALL LIFE TO HAVE AND SHOULD BE HONORED, CHERISHED AND PROTECTED BECAUSE THEY SUSTAIN LIFE ITSELF TODAY AND FOR ALL GENERATIONS TO FOLLOW. WE HAVE NO RIGHT TO TAKE FROM FUTURE LIFE NOR HARM THAT WHICH WE ARE BORROWING FOR SURVIVAL DURING OUR BRIEF LIVES ON EARTH.
