Will They Be Grateful?
I am grateful; grateful to have a roof over my head, a warm bed to sleep in and food on a table I am grateful to own. Looking at unemployment rates in Florida right now, I hope you are too?
I am grateful; grateful for the wonderful and solid educational foundation that moved me from high school to college, to Peace Corps service and a non-profit career. I wonder, will Florida's current elementary, middle and high school students be able to say the same about their educational futures and careers in years to come?
I am grateful; grateful to have learned from third world friends the truth about illiteracy and how enslaving it is for present and future generations; how a lack of education prevents people from developing the ability to think for themselves and/or keeps them from knowledge needed to move from poverty to prosperity. If education in Florida, one of the wealthiest states in the country, continues being de-prioritized, cut, and de-prioritized again, I wonder, what it is our children are going to be grateful for? Join Our Cause and fight for a Florida whose future, our children, is grateful.
