The longest journey, wrote Dag Hammarskjold, is the journey inward. It is a quest that drives us to search within our souls for the light that will enhance our lives.

Each challenge, great or small, should be accepted knowing we are strong in our faith and our beliefs. The journey never ceases, the quest is unending. As we go forth in the different paths of life, choosing sometimes "the road less traveled", we accept the quest, we reach out to enrich our spiritual life and we evoke the verses of Dag Hammarskjold:

But who has dedicated me To my fate.
