This week:
We aren’t behaving like the united states, but can we at least stand up for united traits?
We have different beliefs about God, but can we be inclusive of all?

I wrote the Earth’s Prayer in 2009, and this week was inspired to craft a New Pledge of Allegiance.

The New America’s Pledge of Allegiance:

One HumanKIND
Under every God, or no God as YOU choose to believe,
INDIVISIBLE
With Dignity & Compassion for ALL.

“One should guard against preaching to young people success in the customary form as the main aim in life.
The most important motive for work in school and in life is pleasure in work,
pleasure in its result and the knowledge of the value of the result to the community.”
