I stumbled into the theater,knowing only that my 13-year-old and his amazing choir had been asked to participate, and I was being a good mom by attending to watch Sam. What followed was some wonderful, heartwarming, and eclectic performances by the youth in our community.A country singer who wrote his own heartfelt lyrics, a talk poet who showed himself to be a deep, thoughtful thinker at 19, a Dhukabor youth choir that sings about peace and love, and of course my son's choir...60 young people singing their hearts out never fails to bring a joyful tear to my eye. I left the theater feeling more posivite about the world we live in than ever before. I have faith that the youth around us will continue the struggle for peace and harmony and happiness, that they will push positive and hopeful thoughts forward into action...that they CARE.Mountain Katienoreply@blogger.com
