that can really keep these ideas going.
And kids, when they're doing that, when they're, you know, their acts of kindness, they'll remember how they felt in terms of that and how they will want to get that feeling.
I'm sure what you'll be doing through that is you're going to be creating a whole legion of kids who say, I want to do something public service wise, or at least if they're going to get locked into the world of achievement and all the pressures there,
you'll still have a sense of balance in terms of needing that connection with other people and a sense of what's right and wrong in terms of how you treat other people.
And one of the things that's related to that is, you know, we hear this talking, people talk about how, you know, we have more similarities than we have differences.

So keep going.
And if you can clone yourself, that would be a good thing too.
I would want them to hear the part about how they can be seen by engaging in things for public service, just or checking in on somebody where you don't have to wait and you can see it.

The healing power of mattering.
