If you could have one wish for the world that could come true...what would it be? Please comment on what your wish is.
If you want this wish to come true, then someone has to start working toward achieving it. Do something small today and everyday afterwards to help achieve your wish for the world. Even if your wish is something huge, remember that whoever makes it come true has to start small...
I met a little girl of about age 6 in my sister's daycare the other day who was drawing a picture with crayons and markers. She was so tiny and adorable that I had to talk to her. I asked her what she was drawing, and she wasted no time in telling me that it was her father, who was "in that place where all the fighting is." She told me that she wanted to be just like her daddy. I looked more closely at the picture and noticed that the figure I thought to be her father in his military uniform was next to another man with darker skin, both surrounded with the outline of a giant red heart. Suddenly the girl ran off to the other side of the room, where I then saw two kids fighting, one boy trying to shove the other into the wall for taking the toy he was playing with. My little girl ran up to the fight and tore right between them as if she was going to join the fight, but simply said, "My daddy says you shouldn't fight like that." I have never seen a fight broken up like that before. The boy who was trying to shove the other kid into the wall was now helping him up instead.
This is a prime example of how big changes start small. That little girl is certainly on her way to being just like her daddy.
What is your wish for the world? What can YOU do to make it come true?

I like that story. I think that more people need to pick a positive role model and just go with it... so many people think, "I could never be like that," or "they're way better than me." Even if it's just one small trait that somebody else posesses... you could make it your own and take on the world with it. More people could live more positive lives if they started out small- by changing their attitude. People can even pick fictional characters to idolize, because they too have personalities, imagined or not.
We need all the help we can get, and this little girl is helping alot.
