*Are any of us ever really strangers? We all have a soul connection. As Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. wrote in his Letter from Birmingham Jail: “In a real sense all life is inter-related. All [people] are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly. I can never be what I ought to be until you are what you ought to be, and you can never be what you ought to be until I am what I ought to be.”

**The name Jason comes from Greek Ἰάσων (Iásōn), meaning "healer," from the verb ἰάομαι (iáomai), "to heal," cognate with Ἰασώ (Iasṓ), the goddess of healing, and ἰατρός (iatrós), "healer."
