“I would like this book to be a guide to young persons, regardless of sex, creed, culture, colour, nationality, or spiritual beliefs. I am no better than anyone else, only their equal. Not one of us got into this world on our own, but when we were born we arrived with body, spirit and some personal virtues. I’ve learned that if I did the best job of whatever the task I was assigned, it gained me a little influence. I learned from my parents and older siblings when I was growing up on the homestead not to condone bullying in any form and to do something about it when it raised it’s ugly head. I also learned to give to others their rights, dignity, and respect, whether they were peer, superior, or subordinate” -Allan M. Morison
