CHILDREN

i love children. their hearts are beautiful. one of my yearbook staff members stood on the street corner today at lunch with a guitar and a three cornered colonial hat from the drama prop department playing notes and making up words for songs about how much the yearbook needs money. and though that was absolutely hilarious, the most amazing thing was that the other students gave him about twenty dollars. can you imagine a boy strumming and wailing about wages and pages? i took a mental picture of the colors and sounds and innocence that can be found even in a world that often seems so wrong. i love children. their hearts are beautiful.
