Lets Invite Everybody

Do you want to play? Oh, yes! Indeed! Let’s dance and twirl and make loud steps. Let’s invite the boy with the wheels. Okay. Let's invite the white girl who has freckles Okay. Let's invite the kid whose hair is beaded and braided. Okay. Let’s invite EVERYBODY! Okay. At six, they include everybody. They invite everybody. They love everybody. Unless they have been taught differently. These lucky children have not been taught differently. It is twirl, whirl, dance, hop, skip and laugh. They hold hands and begin spontaneously singing. Their parents and grandparents’ faces crack from ear to ear. Enthusiasm, love, inclusion and joy bring hope into the world every time.
