Four Foot Inspiration

Generally after work I put on my don't look at anyone, don't talk to anyone face on my way to my car and try to plow through the lolligagers on Newbury Street. Well, on Friday I passed by someone while in said don't look, don't speak mode, but caught myself, and thank goodness I did. A got a little one person can make a difference lesson.


I backed up to get myself a glass of lemonade from a 10ish year old kid entrepreneur/philanthropist. This kid was outside around 5:30pm on one of the hottest days yet to sell lemonade for a organization called Global Santa (and I can't find a website, so I think he's the founder of this organization). He wasn't holed up in the air conditioned house playing video games, he was braving the balmy heat to raise money for kids, kids just like him in unhappy circumstance all over the world, so they could have Christmas presents. All I can say is not only do I wish I was more like him when I was a kid, I wish I was more like him now. This is the generation that will save the world.
