Currently the State in America where I live, Ohio is under a recommended stay at home lock down to seek to control a virus currently spreading rapidly throughout the World. Bars, restaurants, hotels, casinos and most businesses are temporarily shutdown.

Having more time for reflection and reading recently I have discovered a problem that I was not aware of that is troubling me. Browsing the internet I read more or less in passing that more than 200 million children throughout the World do not have an opportunity to attend school. Reasons vary for no schooling for children but I am saddened never the less, whatever the rationale.

What can we do when find ourselves blessed to live in the World's wealthiest country and learn that everyone does not share in the Earth's bounty equally. I have no answer but I am troubled tonight reflecting on the matter.
