Membership in each circle is by choice.
Who I am is for me to decide. Not what others say.
Who am I? is a personal question and my birthright to define.
Who are we? How we Identify is the result the mutually defined choices that is the basis of the shared power of Identity.
Because we are all related, we accept our common humanity.
It is for me to say that I welcome every person who wishes no other person harm. There are no exceptions.
People may choose to wish others harm, and they know they are not welcome here.
Everyone else is welcome. Such voluntarily shared identity defines ASCEND.
Welcome!
