One thing I have come to realize is that love is not always happiness.
I remember hearing years ago about a centenarian being interviewed on her birthday. She was asked, __hroughout your life, you have witnessed amazing change and innovation. The past one-hundred years have brought the inventions of the car, television, air conditioning, and microwave ovens. What is the most extraordinary change you have seen in your lifetime?_ Without missing a beat, she replied, __hat a teenager can say __uck_ in front of their parents and get away with it!_ While cultural norms may have changed with the times, being considerate of fellow human beings is not an antiquated notion; its time hasn't ended. Quite the opposite is true. In our world today, kindness and politeness are needed more than ever.
