Our Foundations

There was a time when we were children when we loved everyone…indiscriminately… when we were pouring the foundation of who we, one day, hoped to be. Mixed into the foundation of who we hoped to be were the beginnings of a dream of the world we hoped to see. When our foundation was completed…when it dried there we hoped to find a house built on acceptance on being loving, compassionate and kind. But when we looked around us at the diversity of our world…and of our nation we found every house was not built upon the same foundation. And we came to understand and appreciate what many before us have known: How every house, no matter the foundation has a beauty all its own. And so our dream amidst such diverse foundations is that everyone will come to find a world that is accepting that is loving, compassionate and kind. Which is why, as adults, we are so sad today… when we see so much hate when we kill each other so indiscriminately… and we wonder when did our world turned into the world we never dreamed that it would be.
