We are willing to boldly stand in our individual and collective inner authority, and to course correct as we learn more. We have gleaned information from many sources; we have found resonance with a lot of it, and not all of it.

Please take what resonates, and leave the rest. Our goal is to harmonize, not to homogenize.
