Neil’s Quote at the Beginning:
“In an honest effort to gain understanding, asking questions do not, necessarily, imply a conclusion has been determined. They can be used to avoid making the wrong judgement. If building trust is the ultimate goal – there is no need to be defensive, or feel threatened by any inquiry.” T.F. Hodge, From Within I Rise
