We are unique and precious beings, always doing the best our current consciousness allows as we grow up spiritually.
It is up to me to decide what kind of world I am helping to create for the children today and the children of the future.

For this precious place, for every young face, I am ready to be all that I can be to show every boy and girl what kind of wonderful world we are now creating together.
