In this shared center of ours
there is a warmth
stored from holding hands,
and all those confidences,
all the smiles and laughter
and deep recognition
It is a warmth
which, in the cool of evening
radiates a comfort
that draws us ever more together
We will use this principle
in our design —
the one that offers home
for many people,
the one that uses what we are
to generate what we can give
and multiplies what we can give away.
