Easier said than done
But never done until said!

If I can persuade just one person to stop lying and start telling the truth,
If I can persuade just one thief to stop stealing and return or pay restitution,
If I can persuade just one person to stop disrespecting their parents and start honoring them,
If I can persuade just one person to stop worshiping false beliefs and worship the truth,
then I have begun to change the world!

I WILL BURN MYSELF OUT TRYING!

17 Nov 2006 @ 20:14 by jerryvest : Yes, but...., I once asked one of my
spiritual teachers about telling our kids the truth. He liked the question, but reminded me that as parents it is up to us to find or discover the Truth so that we can make it part of our family life, health and relationships.

Children listen to nearly every word adults speak.
They immediately start processing what is said and planning their future based on information they get, even if they jump to the wrong conclusion.
As soon as time permits, I will give an example, in this comment, to an event in my own life.
We, as adults, must be careful of every word we utter in their presence!!!
