“You must be the change you wish to see in the world.”
- Mahatma Gandhi

“True compassion is more than flinging a coin to a beggar; it is not haphazard and superficial. It comes to see that an edifice which produces beggars needs restructuring.”
- Martin Luther King, Jr.

“It is one of the most beautiful compensations of this life that no man can sincerely try to help another without helping himself.”
- Ralph Waldo Emerson

“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.”
- Margaret Mead

———————————————–

In lieu of writing something witty, poetic, or profound to inaugurate this blog, I’ve included the preceding quotations from a few of my role models to capture its spirit and direction.

I am more-than-ever eager to discover “a small group of thoughtful citizens” who share similar views and are unafraid to make a difference in the world.

I hope that this chronicle will be everything you need it to be and more.
Thank you in advance for reading and contributing.
