We forget, or we're too lazy, or too tired, or too scared to do the things people have to do. They're only little things. Things we yell at our kids to do. They shouIdn't have to show us where we're wrong. We're supposed to show them! We can't let it happen again. We're human beings. We live together - all of us - right next door. We've got to live for each other - or we're nothing.
