LOVING the Beautiful defined by our Youngster Generation

 Fostering our celebration of "Seeing Beautiful in our Youth," an initiative designed by our beautiful non-profit of the month, the Alonzo A. Crim Center for Educational Excellence, they solicited reflections from students enrolled in an afterschool program at the Johnston YMCA in Charlotte, North Carolina. The kindness and wisdom and beauty reflected in their words left us in the happiest of tears and strongest of chills. Their writing offers so much promise for a brighter tomorrow where humanity captures and creates beautiful with a passion to pass it on.

  2. The future is most defiantly brightly beautiful as these young people get it. And we need to do all we can so they don't lose sight of all the beauty that surrounds them and within them.

  5. What a fantastic post! To often we don't think about the power of our youth's words. Lots of people don't take time to listen to what they have to say when some of the most powerful and impactful words will be said by them. Sorry I haven't been up to date with your site I've had a lot going on!
