David Williams, Founder and President of Valor Education, delivers the Opening Remarks for the Valor Symposium on Friday, January 31, 2025. He discusses how our fundamental disposition toward reality should be one of receptivity and gratitude since we did not create it, but can enter into it, and it is good.
