The Minds of Men


"Since wars begin in the minds of men, it is in the minds of men that the defences of peace must be constructed."
- Preamble to the UNESCO Constitution


The work is back-breakingly arduous
the finish line is an ever shifting target 
but 
the vision 
and 
the mandate
they are worthy of my blood, sweat and tears. 

I am proud to say I am in the business of changing and possibly even saving lives.

Some days... (like Mondays)



"You just do it. You force yourself to get up. You force yourself to put one foot before the other, and God damn it, you refuse to let it get to you. You fight. You cry. You curse. Then you go about the business of living. That’s how I’ve done it. There’s no other way." – Elizabeth Taylor
