Imagine that you are on one side of that street, but the person trying to speak with you is on the other side.

There are, and always have been, many people in every nation who are good. We should always strive to find the good in everyone, to find ways to love and not to hate. That is the message of my story.

The potential they possess can only be realized when you find them, but their combined value is beyond estimation.
