What if instead of focusing on being in first place we taught children to help others
Instead of competition cooperation, instead of conniving open honesty
Helping them understand when a relationship is more important than being right
That compassion is stronger than power
That helping the weak is never weak
How to be sensitive to other\'s feelings
That money is less important than people
That when you take what isn\'t yours you loose part of your soul
That peace is better than war
And that courage is doing what\'s right regardless of the consequences
That love is putting someone else above and in front of yourself
Maybe it is children that need to teach us
