[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 741357, member: 18958"] I am back to quoting myself. Well. The definition we usually default to for integrity is moral rectitude or probity. But the essential definition of integrity is this: the state of being whole and undivided. "upholding territorial integrity and national sovereignty" synonyms: unity, unification, coherence, cohesion, togetherness, solidarity "the integrity of the federation." Wholeness. Think about it. What kind of wholeness ever really happens without the threat of disintegration, or the experience of it? Civil War. Divorce. We may have the remembrance of unity, or the fantasy of it, but as long as we are alive, we live out this dream against the reality of incompleteness, brokenness and loss. I am not writing this to be sad. I am writing this to own the potential, the capacity to WIN. It is like SWOT says above. We dare ourselves to be whole. We achieve it in moments. Because we cannot sustain it, does not mean we have not won. The victory is there. It has been claimed. We just have to look on the wall. The plaque is there. [/QUOTE]
