When your children go out into the world there are traits they’ll need to be successful, even if they’re Vampires.
Compassion and seeing beyond your own single mindedness is something that our world lacks. It is also something our children can make up for, and make their future brighter.
You can be the smartest person in the world but if you can’t see traits and qualities in other that you don’t have then you aren’t that smart.
You can be rich but if you don’t give back then you’re morally poor.
You can think you know what you like, but if you’re closed minded you’ll never really know what you like.
As our children become adults they must move from the sheltered world of their childhood, that of high school and their parent’s home, and see beyond themselves.
Your assignment for today, as a parent, grandparent, or anyone with a young person in your life: Talk with your young person about the big wide world. Talk to them about compassion and making a difference. It is a big world, but even a small bit of compassion will go a long way and make a big difference. How have you seen beyond your world? Share that. And with any luck, your young person, in the infinite wisdom of youth will share their visions with you.
