I seek to do more for more children because these are not stories that I’ve heard or invented. There is a lot that I do not know, but I do know this. If our children dream not tomorrow, but today.

If they love, both themselves and everyone around them, then the world will be a better world - Gentler, Kinder, Fairer. The world will lose a little of its grey and be more full of sunshine.
