We, the people of this planet, are not perfect. Many of us have baggage or hang-ups. 

We live with diversity and just because one person believes in something does not make them right and others wrong.

We believe to be open and reserve the right to change our stance based on certain issues listening to well-structured arguments that may convince us otherwise or not.

We are surrounded by collusion in one form or another.  Collusion from those in power, whether it's political, financial, or other means. We believe that ordinary people should not be molded by an oppressive class for their own needs.

We believe freedom of choice is the right of all individuals to live as he or she pleases as long as he or she does not harm anyone or infringe on the rights of others.

We believe that the end does not justify the means to achieve it, so we believe that the journey in life is important.

We believe that the influences we have had in life have a purpose, and we can separate conflicting influences with respect for what they are.

We live on a sustainable and beautiful planet that needs care so that our children's children can enjoy life on Earth for generations.

We are currently waging war on our planet and our influence has become rather toxic. This needs to stop.
