They say that knowledge is the key to unlocking the world,
Have we ever truly thought about the things we're unlocking?
We learn of violence and that's all we know.
We learn or war and that's what we do.
We learn of love and we spend our whole lives searching for it.
What we learn as children carries over into our adult lives.
Do we really want our children learning hatred, violence, and war?
Or do we want them to know love, compassion, and mercy?
Do we want our children to be juvenile delinquents,
or fine citizens who obey the law and know how to treat people how they should be treated?
As mother and fathers you are the only ones who can make this choice.
You are the ones that your children want to grow up to be like.
We're they're role models and friends when they have no one else.
Love us, Show us compassion, and Let us know that when the world goes dark it will be all right.

to gain knowledge on not letting the world go dark, is by comprehending the logic of writings such as this...to raise ones level of consciousness...well written...
