At the school where I am conducting my dissertation project, today is "Red, White and Blue" Day. While I feel certain that the 7th and 8th graders that I am working with know why today is R, W & B day, I wonder what the kindergartners and first graders know, or think.
There is a movement afoot to make today a day of good deeds. That seems to me a good, a positive, a hopeful response to hatred.
Today I will be especially kind. I will mail off some donations. I will look people in the eyes and smile with love.
Remember there is not enough darkness in the world to put out the light of even one candle.
