"Children may have full plates, but their hearts remain empty. In a world of excess, what they hunger for most is time, love, and purpose."

America’s culture has produced a strange dichotomy.

That is; affluent kids appear starved, though not in the way you may think. We’re not talking about food or water. We’re talking about a completely different form of starvation.

Around the world, kids are starving to death from poverty, while many American kids are choking to death from affluence and everything that comes with it.
