Strange but true.
We operate in a different way of existence.
When we are born we are solely dependant upon our parents.

To be raised to be guided to be shown for a better word.

And we totally owe them a lot.
For what they did for you?
Is what we should do for them?

They could have set us aside and continue on?
Many accepted the gift granted with love to them as parents.

As we grow into adulthood many of us cherish that.
As children, we swore to protect them.
For what they did for you?
Is what we should do for them?

Why set them aside?
Using excuses to get by.
As if our times under their leadership doesn't deserve us returning the favor.

Many get tossed into senior living homes.
Left alone to many unknown.
