Are our children inspired? Are teenagers (especially in large urban areas) filled with healthy and creative energy because of the positive role models found in their homes, schools and local neighborhoods?
Does the news on television and the worldwide web inspire us to become better citizens? Are elected governmental representatives behaving in an inspirational manner on a daily basis?
Do most of us feel an obligation to try and make our evolving society and the world as a whole a better place to live, especially for the children of today?
When a majority of Americans can say yes to all of the questions above, we will have achieved something truly spectacular. And then, perhaps, we will be able to share our newly invigorating culture with other interested countries around the globe for the benefit of humanity in general.
