Livestrong

This past weekend my girl scouts troop and I volunteered at an Angelman's Syndrome Walk near fairytale town. All of the kids there were patients of either Angelman's syndrome, Down syndrome, or Autism. At first I was really sad to see to them but I volunteered to stand at the midpoint and hand out snacks/waterbottles/stamp their hands. Wow, the excitement with which these children approached the midpoint with is one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen. They were mostly in wheelchairs and being brought by their parents, but just the smallest things like us giving them high fives or granola bars made them happy. Seeing this made me realize that these days every one is too difficult to please. Demands seem to be going up exponentially as the world of technology blossoms into a monster. Now, it's technology and money that makes our world go round. I wonder if Adam and Eve ever pictured it this way.
