With malice toward none,
with charity for all…
let us strive on
to finish the work we are in …
to do all which may achieve and cherish
a just and lasting peace
among ourselves and with all nations.

It's an inspiring time of the year.

Alexis de Tocqueville
I have my mother who is an Irish-Italian, and my father who is African, so I have the taste buds of an Italian and the spice of an African.

Faith crosses every border and touches every heart in every nation.
