I learned this from my 4th grade teacher and have passed this on to my children.

I'm reminded of these wise words from Mr. Fred Rogers on what would have been his 98th birthday. We are all in this together. Let's renew ourselves to the fight for the common good. It's all the more important during these difficult times.

By the time you learn the rules of life, you're too old to play the game.

"The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much; it is whether we provide enough for those who have too little." —FDR, 1937

Imagine breaking something and then asking why it’s broken

Remember folks: if you have any small amount of artistic talent, any sex appeal, or can make your friends laugh, the richest man on earth is crying screaming throwing up because he can’t be you.

It would be awesome to see this happen.

There are so many forms of resistance. This one taking down Home Depot!
