This is where it all begins. The portal, the entry. Where we begin to come together. Where we learn to share. Where we get over our differences. Where we embrace them, respect them, learn from them. Where we use them to find a better way. Where we come together. Because together we are our best and brightest. Together, we will find a way, find solutions, and move forward. Together, we will become our best selves as we cherish our world so that it might cherish us back.
