ANSWER

The world is a sad place. Its a sentence filled with pain, punctuated by only brief pleasures. Every government is corrupt. Every leader in history has espoused change and then raped his own people. Most people walk around, not realizing the cancer cells and bacteria creeping up all over their bodies, their faces sagging, their pasts clogging the thoughts of their futures, their depressions oozing through their pores. The world has to be changed pore by pore. The lights have shut off. Behind the eyes of each person the lights have to be turned on again.

Things get better one person at a time. So I won’t tell you three things but two and that boils down to one.

If everyone taught their kids, by example, to be kinder and to be honest, then the world will be a better place. That is the only thing that will make the world a better place. And it’s not an easy practice to be both kind and honest at the same time.
