The 1st BOI Blog-The Challenge

We have now become a society who judge the actions of people but not in a good way. Why do we mis-trust so many? Why do we always look for the bad in people and not assume that everyone is just good? I am 58 years old. I really love animals, kids and adults, all the same. I am spending my life trying to better this world so my kids and everyone’s kids don’t grown up in a world full of violence, lies and greed. Sound familiar. Look around.
Mind you I had a great childhood, innocent and fun, but as I grow up I see the greed and lies that are propagated by us adults. Adults who should be role models. The waste, dirt and legacy we are leaving out children with is insane. The pain we cause animals and this planet in general is criminal. I have decided to do something about it.
I want kids to grow up with dreams and an imagination.
I am not trying to be a kid, as some people have stated, or trying to act like a kid, I am a kid. I can’t help it but that being said I am not shirking my responsibilities like others, I’m embracing them. I have not lost my sense of innocence in believing that we can change for the better and I can do and be anything I want. That truth and compassion can win the day and when someone questions this it makes me think that maybe I’m wrong. Some people would like to cast doubt or dull your dreams but I won’t let them do that to me and you should not let them ever do that to you. Your dreams and beliefs make you who you are. 
I will not allow anyone to stop me from achieving my goal to get every kid in the world to be involved in their planet, their families and their friends. That’s why I created the Band of Innocence. Not to make money or achieve fame. To secure a wonderful future for the children of this world. 
I want to form an army of kids. Millions of children from around the world to stand up and say that they want a better world than what we adults are leaving them. I hope the Band of Innocence will be that movement and if not I hope something else comes along.
The power kids have today is enormous. With Facebook and my space they can connect to kids around the world. What’s happening in Europe, in the US, in Russia? What are kids doing to better their futures? It’s not just growing up and getting a job because  without a beautifully clean world your jobs won’t mean much.
So, you kids, think about it. You have the chance right now to form the biggest team this planet has ever seen. A global community of good guys and girls. That’s right you are the truth and the innocence. Use it before you grow up to be like us. Well most of us.
