Do you know where your hometown is?
Your hometown is a place you choose.Get a map of the world.
Pin a little flag on a place on the map you'd like to go to.
The place you've put your flag is your hometown.Let's find a way to make this flag something you'll be proud of.
Start by giving your hometown a name you want to call it by.
Find out some things about your hometown
Make a scrapbook of images and people from your hometown, and add your comments about them
Look after your hometown in your mind.
Send it lots of love.In your mind help anyone there who needs help.
If there are any broken-down houses, mend them in your mind
If there are any people who are ill, make them better in your mind
If any of the streets need cleaning, clean it in your mind
If there are any children who are crying, wipe their tears away in your mindFind out about the past and present of your hometown.
If anything terrible has ever happened there, think about it, and try to take away the pain that's still there.
If there's something terrible going on there now, focus your thoughts on it, and try to take away all the pain.Quietly tell your best friends about the problems of your hometown, and ask them to solve them in their minds.
Put up some nice photos of your hometown in your room.
Write a diary about your hometown.
Keep sending your powerful energy to your hometown until more people start to smile and laugh and enjoy themselves.
Keep going until your efforts start to make things better in your hometown.
One day we'll realize that all the towns in the world are someone's hometown.
