Tremendous statement from a great heart. I highly recommend spending an evening with this video. Moving and inspirational.
Thanks, Dariel, so glad you found it inspiring, too. I most certainly did.
I saw him on a documentary on the Seamless Garment , and also one on Thomas Merton . He is right on .
Thanks, Rocket. I was wondering if you had heard of him before. This is a very inspirational talk. Hope many watch it.
