Friday 11 January 2008: All That Glitters
"We want more than this world's got to offer.
We want more than the wars of our fathers.
And everything inside screams for second life."
-Switchfoot, Meant to Live

What is truely passed down to us? Surely it's more than material things. We make choices every day that show exactly what we value. What you spend your money, what you do with your day, and the way that we regard others.
Someone is watching. They see what you do, and they learn.
We need to show children the true value of life. It cannot be found in monetary desires.
We need to end the wars of the past. Even if they are not ours, they shouldn't be our childrens.
We need to show them love. Truth. Values. Compassion.
