Love in a Lunch Box

I learned about the golden rule from two extraordinary entrepreneurs - my parents. They never used the words social responsibility or philanthropy nor did we have any money. But every day they made the world a better place through positive and generous interactions with other people and the planet. And every day I also took for granted that the somewhat smushed peanut butter and jelly sandwich, apple and homemade cookie in my lunch bag was a symbol of my Mom’s great big heart. They didn’t make a big deal about it, it was just normal for them to try to make something right, stretch out a hand or invent something which ought to be. Among the things they managed to create was a whole industry for recycling post-consumer bottles and cans on an industrial basis.
