~Game: Two Truths and a Lie
Instruct each player to think of three statements about themselves. Two must be true statements, and one must be false. For each person, he or she shares the three statements (in any order) to the group. The goal of the game is to determine which statement is false. The group votes on which one they feel is a lie, and at the end of each round, the person reveals which one was the lie.

“… all that the Lorax left here in this mess was a small pile of rocks, with one word...
UNLESS.
But now, says the Once-ler…, UNLESS someone like you cares a whole awful lot,
nothing is going to get better. It's not.
What does that mean?
Can one person make a difference in the world?
Do you believe that you can make a difference in the world?
Does believing help you in making a difference?
