My Wish For the World Is

I wish that people would see each other as they see themselves. Because we all are connected you and I, we are all part of the human race. We must put on the eyes of a child; they don’t see color nor how much money a person has in their bank accounts. I’m talking about when children were young and innocent. And not influenced by who they should engage with. Before they were made aware of color and fractions. At this stage, all they saw was a human being; they weren’t aware of the pigmentation of the skin. Only then can the world walk in fairness with their fellow man. 06/9/2022 Inspired by the “ If Only My Dream Would Come True” contest.

We live in a society where parents tell children how to live rather than ask them questions which lead to responsible decision-making. Children naturally accept other children despite obvious mental or physical "faults". Aloha!
