Remembering to Look Forward


We were lucky. But we never gave it a thought back then. After all, we were just kids. "Luck" was all about finding a marble someone previously lost on the way to school or maybe a dime or, even better, a quarter. For a quarter, I could see a "monster" movie on Saturday afternoons at the neighborhood theater. For a dime I could buy a really big (by today's miserly standards) Clark Bar. No, we were lucky because we lived in a free society and our parents made sure our future would be better than theirs. I hope we'll remember to look forward for our children and grandchildren, too.
