Today’s blogger for the 40 Day Fast is Shaun. He writes:

If my children grow up to be average Americans I’ll have failed them as a parent.

If they spend four hours a day watching other people live on a television screen. If they’re bored.

If they go to school to get a job so their kids can go to school so they can get a job so their kids can go to school…If they’re without purpose.

If they take more than they give and want more than they have. If they’re greedy.

If everyone in their prayers looks like them. If they’re unaware.

I’ve failed.
