"It is good to realize that if love and peace can prevail on earth, and if we can teach our children to honor natures gifts, the joys and beauties of the outdoors will be here forever." ~ Jimmy Carter, former U.S. president ~ The key word, if is the most important word in this quote. It is a true statement, but I wish he had said when instead of if. |

That is a very big "if," indeed! And there's probably a reason why he didn't say "when." |

I think he said "if" because he is a kind and wise man who truly does understand humankind with all of its' foibles. What I don't know is why books are written. |
