Much has been said of the principle of thinking globally and acting locally. I have found this not only to be true, but with vision and determination, I realize that local successes may also release the forces of a perpetual cycle that in turn leads to improving global conditions. After more than eight decades, I"ve seen the world as it has been, but also as I believe it can be. I have dedicated most of my life contributing to what I believe is a vision of how to help create that world. I"ve been a soldier, an entrepreneur, a public servant and an advocate for society"s less-fortunate. Because I have been blessed in succeeding at those endeavors, I believe my experiences, especially at the local level, and my vision may be helpful to others who want to be part of building a better future for all of society, a society that seems in the last several years to have been losing its way.
