A Million Ways to Save the World

In the October issue of "O Magazine" (Oprah's magazine), there was an article titled "A Million Ways to Save the World". Author Edwidge Danticat shared her idea for ways to save the world.

"I would teach every child...that the future is as infinite as their dreams, and when they don't quite reach it, they are not failing but rehearsing. And I would tell them that when their heart is broken, it heals back stronger with each tear."

We need more people like her in the world! If everyone had that attitude, kids would grow up so confident and happy. I guess the best place for it to start is with me!
