We all know that with great privilege comes great responsibility. I'd like to take that a step further.
So often in my travels I saw very young children having to work for a living to help make ends meet. Nothing leads to a better understanding of our privilege and responsibility than looking into the eyes of one of these less fortunate children.
Most of us take our privilege so much for granted that we can't even define it; we just know, without question, that we have:
Protection
Respect
Independence
Veracity
Information
Liberty
Expectations
Grace
Education
I suggest that with our PRIVILEGE comes the responsibility of doing our utmost to ensure all people in all lands have those same nine gifts.
With PRIVILEGE comes the responsibility
of helping others have the same.
Wonderful message Rhia, I agree! A child has the undeniable right to have the support that he or she needs to grow into responsible adults who then at their turn can make their own decisions.Great post!
