We were curious to see the kids because we didn’t even know
we had neighbors with kids. Apparently the neighbor’s kids had done the same.
We stepped out to see them and there they were with their mom as well.
Long story short, they were in our house and we were in theirs
for the rest of the day…the kids played like they had known themselves for
ever. They played dress up, they had a tea party, and they played with Frisbees.
The girls were crying
when their mom told them it was time to go home…my daughters were crying too
The girls are Caucasian…I wondered all night why we still
have racism.
If kids could be that innocent and friendly; no discrimination
whatsoever…at what point does racism creep in?
Matthew 18:3 was on my mind “And he said: Truly I tell you,
unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the
kingdom of heaven”…if only we could truly be like little children
(childlikeness not childishness), what a beautiful world we would have.
I know there are some parents that teach their kids to be
afraid and wary of other races but above all, I think the society also finds a
way to corrupt some of those that were not raised that way.
We may not be able to change what parents teach their kids
but we can help rid the society of racism.
Racism is not innate…it is learned.
Do your part to rid the society of hate and discrimination
