As you may have guessed,I am of the opinion that there is only one thing to grow up for!Our planet!So I intend to become an activest (hopefully in theatre). By the time I am an adult,I would like the world to be like one big peaceful commune,with no seperate countries,no need or abuse of anything and a loving bond between all things.I think this may take a little time,so maby our children will experience such peace! If this dream is to become reality,we will have to begin now by treating each other with love and care,and then all things around us!Peace can only be achieved by each person taking the initiative! For my part,Iam in the process of starting an action group in the Byron Bay for young caring people. - - - - - 11:10) Odd de Presno 11-OCT-90 8:14 My name is Miguel Angel Garrido. I'm 12.
