Personal Mission Statement

I hope you come to find that which gives life a deep meaning for you. Something worth living for---maybe even worth dying for. Something that energizes you, enthuses you, enables you to keep moving ahead. I can't tell you what it might be---that's for you to find, to choose, to love. I can just encourage you to start looking, and support you in the search.
Written by Sister Ita Ford to her niece shortly before she was martyred in El Salvador, December 2nd, 1980. (Complete letter.)
