I Believe... had its start from a simple thought process, an unexpected self-reflection from which grew the many beliefs that the author holds to be true. Sharing them in the form of a book helps Daniel Taddeo pursue his mission to make this world a better place, one soul at a time. It is his hope that readers will take action to improve their lives, those of their families, and their country. He provides the material so they, at the very least, can just think, like he did, and perhaps find peace, comfort, understanding, direction, or even solutions. He also is quick to admit that this is a work in progress, not limited to the statements on these pages, and subject to change. He wants the readers to ask themselves, "What do I believe?"

Agreeing with Abraham Lincoln, Mr.Taddeo believes that we are not bound to win, but we are bound to be true. We are not bound to succeed, but we are bound to live up to what light we have. We must stand with those that stand right; stand with those while they are right and part with those when they go wrong.
