THANKFUL FOR L R KNOST

Today’s blessing comes from the author L. R. Knost who, with the wisdom and knowledge she brings reminds us as human beings and parents of two very important things: She teaches us that it is not our job to make our children tough enough to face a world that is heartless and cruel (Certainly this should be taught every day in every school) It’s our job to raise children who will make their world a little less heartless and cruel. And she reminds us wherever children are murdered whether in Israel, Palestine, Armenia, Syria Ukraine, America or Algiers… every father screams the same screams and every mother cries the same tears.
