• Reality is much more complex than any judgment of right and wrong encourages you to believe. When you really understand the ethical, spiritual, social, economic, and psychological forces that shape individuals, you will see that people’s choices are not based on a desire to hurt. Instead, they are in accord with what they know and what world views are available to them. Most are doing the best they can, given what information they’ve received and what problems they are facing.

• One ship sails East,
  And another West,
  By the self-same winds that blow,
  Tis the set of the sails
  And not the gales,
  That tells the way we go.

  Like the winds of the sea
  Are the waves of time,
  As we journey along through life,
  Tis the set of the soul,
  That determines the goal,
  And not the calm or the strife.

  Ella Wheeler Wilcox
