A Way to Throw a Party

I spent my whole Saturday on a party...But it's not a typical party, it's a kind that is worthwhile. I had an interaction with children that are crime offenders, sexually abused, and abandoned. I am able to impart enlightening ideas to them; but beyond that, I realized how fortunate and guided I am. Knowing that I am privileged, was one of the best things I learned. It was not a matter of "who has what", but it's more of "who gives what". 

Life is not measured by your possession...it's what you do with it that counts. What's the point of accruing a collection of highly-valued materials

One of the highlights of my experience was when I challenged their dreams. I asked what aspirations. One said he wants to be a driver, a jeepney driver to be specific. When I told them they have to raise the bar because we have an UNLIMITED God, the next kid told me he wants to be a mayor someday. I'm looking forward to see that kid take that mayoral position, I might even help him campaign if that happens...
