No matter what you say, or what you do, it all leaves a mark on the children around you. A child who witnesses violence and war, is forever scared by what they see. A child who hears nothing but negative, cannot erase the voice that says, “you can't”. But the child who witnesses peace and love, will carry that with them forever and continue to share hope for the future.
We cannot erase the mistakes of the past, but we can leave a bigger impression on a child with hope, than with despair.
