"You've been telling us about how to secure peace, but come on, now, General-just among us Rotarians and Rotary Anns-'fess up!

The depth of emotion I experienced during this life review was astonishing. Not only could I feel the way both I and the other person had felt when an incident took place, I could also feel the feelings of the next person they reacted to. I was in a chain reaction of emotion, one that showed how deeply we affect one another.”
