Senior Citizens

Why are our Senior Citizens so neglected these days? Is it because they don't care, or is it they don't believe they will be senior citizens one day? Our cities, counties, states, and countries MUST learn to take better care of the senior citizen because if you live, you WILL become a senior citizen one day, whether you like it or not. The senior citizen has set the paste for all to be able to accomplish that which you are doing today...making possibilities come true; whether you want to believe it or not, it doesn't matter, it will come true. "There is a season and a time for every purpose under heaven. A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted." When a senior citizen plant (with the help of God Almighty), the young and young in heart reap the benefit of that which were planted and continue to make an improvement on it. You can see this throughout history; through the "discovery of the wheel" to the modern-day that we are living in now; and that's the way it should be. We set the paste for the young to become "The FutureNow". What we do for them NOW will determine WHO and WHAT they will be TOMORROW, And that's the way it should also be.
