Privileged Children

There are times when we hear about the desire to return to America from our children. For them, America has got Target, dirt bikes, football games, and lazy summer days. Since they haven't lived in America for any time that they can remember, they feel like they are missing something. Indeed, they are missing many things by not living in America, but I don't think they realize what it is. Their norm is a privileged lifestyle, full of unique and wonderful experiences. Every day they go to a school that is an oasis in the desert. It is spacious, light, green, and open. As you walk around campus, there is a fragrance of sweet flowers, the buzz of birds talking, and the rustle of reeds in the breeze. Somehow, I don't think that they would get this back in America.
