Do you have a good values-based story to tell? It doesn’t have to be perfect to make a difference in someone else’s life.
Share A Story NowSimple words of wisdom
I am going to be honest. I am only ten years old, but why can't I make a difference too? I have been told many things in my life so far, simple things like "Eat your salad" and "Don't climb that." Half the time I don't even know those things are making an impact on my life. And sometimes, it's the other way around. Like my grandmother, who used to tell my mother, "Can't never did nothin'." I always try to work hard and remember those few words, however much bad grammar she had.

Dear Emily, You are so lucky to have the "tools" to express yourself. With few sentences you made a difference to me. And you should thank Values.com for giving you the "stage" to have your say. Thank you Emily!
