They are asking for nothing -- just a huge cheerful bunch of kids working together. With all the bad press these days about teenagers, I really wanted to share this. It totally lifted my spirits.  |
Thanks Betty. Nice to see there're some good things around like these kids. It lifted my spirits as well.
I sometimes tend to get a bit of the blues, when reading about old folks that get mugged for little money, or other bad things.
Perhaps I should light a candle for all mankind.
