Your philosophy does work Deepthoughts.
It doesn't seem like it now,but once youve left school
and your in the work world etc. those school peers just don't figure
on the horizon.Then the principles you live by will become an asset
you will prove trustworthy conscientious and so on.
Sorry if I sound boring about it but perhaps even Ghandi didn't enjoy
his youth with so much corruption and troubled times surrounding him.
Kind thoughts for you.....Jjulia
