Lets not forget this old formula

America past- America present- America future

Generosity, compassion, respect- how do these traits develop in people. Many don’t or ever acquire these.

The one’s who do, are generally “unsung heroes” so to speak. They don’t exhibit it for the glory, the recognition or reward. They just do it!

My hats off to these remarkable citizens.

So don’t rush to judgment, when you label someone, for how you may have quickly determined their actions. We all have a tendency of being impatient.

Back to my original question-

The answer is: society as a whole, offers the opportunity to have class, distinction and pride.

From parents, to teachers, to neighbors, to classmates, to strangers and all in between.

Someone might have money, they might have power, they might have ambition.

Someone else might have a dream, some hope, a prayer…

When we all help each other, everyone benefits from the results!

Cooperation, team work, tolerance,

All add up to make America great again!
