If we take care of loving and learning that's enough. We have bred the world into a state of overpopulation. There are plenty of fellow citizens here already that can use our love. Learning can help us rise above that "goal." “Breeding?” Oy. If we take care of loving and learning that's enough. We have bred the world into a state of overpopulation.
