LESSONS FROM ART HISTORY


Let them grow into tolerance and freedom...

...teaching them to strive to be great heroes,
yet in a non-violent way...
                                     
...to spare loved ones too sudden a farewell...

...not to experience want and/or suffering for what they will call
"a higher cause"...
...for which a higher prize may be paid.
Neither let them become too passive...
...leaving them helpless on their own.

May our boys grow into sensitive gentlemen...
...unafraid of recognizing that they have feelings...
... and our girls, into dynamic ladies...

...unafraid of making a stand.


Neither gender shall clip the other's wings.
Equality will bring the best out of everyone.
The great ones should not merely revel and celebrate
their own success...
...but rather care for the plight of the little ones in need.
As for the other little ones,
don't let the passions of the other great ones
deprive them of their innocence.
Show them the way with the Light of Reason.
For they are our hopes.
Yet do not leave Reason completely unchecked,
lest too bright a light should spawn monsters.
Only if all these conditions are fulfilled,
should we break away from our legacy of
intolerance, violence, and helplessness...
...on a new and better daybreak...
...full of light, love, and life.
