You may not be able to change the world, but you can at least

change your footprints on this earth. 

~ Jules Dervaes ~

 

 

"If we should cease learning now, we would end our lives for life is learning and learning ceases with death...

 

The world presents our young generation with a challenge more formidable and far greater than ever before offered to mankind: the challenge of its existence.

 

... The world is ours--we can mold it into any shape we wish.  We can either let it fall into disrepute through our ignorance, or we can build it to new heights through our knowledge. ..."  ~ Source: Excerpts from Jules Dervaes's valedictorian speech, 1965 ~

Brief Bio: Jules Dervaes is a self-employed urban market gardener and leather craftsman who enjoys nature and the simple things in life.

He and his family started the Path Project in 2001 and hope that their urban pioneer journey will be an inspiration to fellow travelers.
