Childhood Wisdom
I just had to share this. I watched it and cried the whole time. This 13 year old girl is expressing my frustration and world view so well! It's moving and motivating. I'm one of the "grown-ups" now. What do we do to start to fix this stuff?
It is. It makes me realize that I've done a good job holding on to my ability to not become jaded. I'm still frustrated about these things and I want the people who say they're in charge to FIX IT!
Thanks for posting this! The young woman is eloquent and absolutely right on! If more people would listen and really HEAR what she said perhaps we could double, triple, our numbers in thought and action to save Mother Earth and her children, making "a haven" for all!
Indeed. When you hear a kid saying things like these, it makes you wonder how it came to be that we've all accepted the way things are, and not done much to change them.
Very moving. Honest and sincere.
