Article 31
“You have the right to play”
I hear these words a lot. But it means much, much more than that. I got up very early this morning to play volleyball. My heart just feels so free and ecstatic about being a part of something special. The smell of sweat is the confirmation that I have given everything I got. It lights my fuse. It makes me feel proud. Every child needs to feel that sense of achievement that I do when I play volleyball. Children would not be able to have the fun that is essential to growing up if this right didn’t exist. Rights are for everyone, especially children. The future depends on the children of today. This right will definitely improve the future.
