Who Do You Love?

Think about the person you love most in the world.  Even if it is you, think of this person.  Now put this person in the form of a 12 month old child.  A child who has needs, but can't really meet those needs for themselves.  They need food and water.  They need loving companionship.  They need education/learning.  They need nearly total physical, emotional, spiritual, and mental support, and they need if from you.

What would you be willing to do to support this child.  Would you work two full time jobs?  Would you do whatever you could to insure they had the best education possible?  Would you do what it took to make sure they had healthcare?  What if they were starving, how far would you go to make sure they had food?  What if they were alone in the cold with no shelter?  In the middle of a war zone?  

Wouldn't it be nice, if everyone on the planet treated everyone else on the planet that way?  

Why don't we start treating everyone that way today?
