As parents, we try to raise our kids in an environment full of love, kindness and laughter. We teach them to be gentle and peace-loving, and tell them that fighting or hurting another person whether with action or words is unacceptable. And then they go out into the world and see this harsh reality-- that not all people are kind, or gentle, or peace-loving.

Last Saturday, I woke up in the middle of the night with a burning need to write. And so I did, therefore, this blog. Maybe one day in the future, when I'm rich and famous from writing a blog (or maybe a book!), I'll look back at that fateful Saturday night with fondness as I tell my millions of followers ---"this is where it all started".
