    About this ebook

    I believe in the power of words and ideas. I believe that ideas cannot die, and so influence reality. I believe that if we focus on ideas that increase empathy, compassion, and empowerment, the world will become a better place. This is my purpose in my writing and speaking. Find out more about my purpose, and how even the smallest acts of compassion make a difference.
