In my opinion, it's a crime against all of humanity when seniors are tossed aside like yesterday's trash. Seniors don't seem to have much respect given to them in this society of ours. It rots. People don't visit their elders enough, they say they are too busy but I believe people don't visit because every time you see your senior relative or friend, you are faced with your own mortality. Who wants to be reminded that your body is one step closer to death with every minute that passes? We all need some vitamin L (L for Love) to keep our spirits nurtured and happy. It doesn't matter if we are a baby, teenager, middle aged or a senior, with out it we will wither and die, like a flower with out water and sun. Our world will be a happier place when we all start to show compassion and give a helping hand to anyone who crosses our paths. All we have is each other. Government is not going to solve the problem, because the solution all starts with YOU and ME. If everyone does one thing to help someone else, it will soon become contagious and our future will be brighter.
