Open your eyes and look for their smiles;
Close your eyes and listen for their laughter; Reach out your hand and hold a child’s hand; Remember the smell of a newborn’s head. When our children cry, we must be their light; When our children hurt, we must heal their pain; When our children want, we must provide; When our children fear, we must protect them. It is easy to dwell on what is negative or what is bad; It is harder to stand up and make a difference. It is easy to forget from where we came; It is harder to remember the past as we look to the future. Today – we make a stand to live for our children. Today – we make sure to listen to our children. Today – we make the future brighter. Tomorrow – we learn from today. Eloheinu v’lohei Avoteinu v’Imoteinu, Give us the strength to go forward. Help us to do what is right and what is best for our children, our future. Comments are closed.
