The Children of our World
Quote of the day
‘Happiness
and Joy is born when a child is around. The children of our world bring our
world into a playground of living. Love our children for they are the future as
we once were the future.’
A sizzling welcome
to Friday, the last day of our working week and the preamble to our much
awaited weekend. Weekends are really joyful in the presence of our children. Children
bring joy to the world and remind us of just that. Today I want to dedicate an
article to commend our children for the joy and happiness they bring to our
hearts. Our lives are a precious gift bestowed upon us by Almighty GOD for a
valued and valid purpose. No one should live a life of unhappiness. We are
human beings with the appendages to make changes to ourselves and to our living
world. We can take hate away by giving love. We can take hunger away from the
younger with a simple programme called feed. We can stop the abuse with a simple approach called
refuse. If we can send water to astronauts in space, we can easily send water
to those on Earth. In a centennial journey we see changes in our bodies. As we
grow older we become wiser. Once we were children and now we have children of
our own. Our responsibilities are diversified. Children are our first priority.
We need to act immediately and lend a helping hand. Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys
and Girls we need to love our children and to give them the full support that they
need from skills to thrills. Children depend on us as much as we depend on
them. They learn from us in the same way we learn from them. They remind us
that we were once children, dependent from birth, ascendants from learning, descendants
from lineage and independents from 21. They remind us of the word love and its potent
meaning to create harmony, friendship, adoration, fun and laughter. Children of
the world see the world that we create. There are around 1.9 billion children
in the world, we need to inspire them with intensity. Some children are unfortunate
therefore we need to bring fortune to them. In Somalia 49% of children aged between 4 – 14
are involved in child labour. As sole custodians
of the living world we can stop this. In Sierra Leone 1 in 5 children die
before the age of 5. One billion children around the world live in poverty. We
have the means to end all of this. To create better weekends from the strain of
bitter weekends we need to think children. We need to turn 1.9 billion young hearts into
hope. Give 1.9 billion children a smile and our planet shall light up with vigor
and strength. Give 1.9 billion children a fair chance and you will end
unfairness. The future of our planet lies in the fate of our agenda. What can
we do? What can we do for our children? Can we help? Can we provide? It is the
year 2016. We have the technology to improve our ecology and the methodology to
advance our immunology. We have the theology to recognize our ideology and the psychology to eradicate
poverty. I say onto you and verily too, think children. Think of their future.
Give them a chance. Let them breathe in confidence and exhale timidity. We are Earthlings and should be proud of it.
We should pamper the young wherever they are and whoever they are. Diseases
like diarrhea and pneumonia can be conquered saving over 2 million children
lives per year, almost 4 lives per minute. In Syria there are 7.5 million
children in need of our assistance. Try to help in any possible way to create a
smile of hope to a child. Reinstate smiles to the forgotten ones and see how
2016 will change for you. Love our children, for they love you dearly. Have a
wonderful Friday. Think children this weekend and find a way in your heart to
create smiles around the world. Always remember that a child’s smile is like a candle
of hope that shines in the darkness of despair. Bring home a smile to a child
and you shall light up the darkness of despair with hope and love.
