A Decision


"Private choices are not private; they all have public consequences... Our society is the sum total of what millions of individuals do in their private lives. That sum total of private behavior has worldwide public consequences of enormous magnitude."  
                                                                                      -James E. Faust

PS...To all my American friends, Happy Memorial Day.

I love this quote. True for every choice, and I see an especially poignant reminder with regard to environmentalism.
