A Thought
 
  It is very nice to think
The world is full of meat and drink,
With little children saying grace
In every Christian kind of place.

Robert Louis Stevenson

Ok it's sweet and cute, and sort of misses the point.However if its a happy kind of utopian thought we all should aspire to..i guess there's no harm, no foul.Especially whenot makes us think about the subject.Yes and as it was written in the C19th, Mr.Stevenson is allowed his 'Christian' remark...i feel.

Sweet, I would just replace the 'Christian' with something else, as for kids just for being kids shall be in grace, anywhere, everywhere, Always! Thanks for sharing!
