This is one reason why watching "The Polar Express" is tough for those of us who grew up in that time.
Dad, along with all of the other fathers, served in the war and had good, stable union jobs. Moms stayed home and took care of the family.
Today, the factories and their jobs were shipped overseas decades ago. Mom and Dad have been dead for many years now. We're getting ready to join them.
Everyone is angry about something or other. Everything is racist, bigoted, xenophobic, you name it. Something simple, like making America great again, gets distorted and misconstrued.
It was always about the little things that make life great. Things like...
Holding the door open for someone.
Holding the elevator.
Looking after your elderly neighbors.
Cutting your neighbors grass. Clearing the driveway and walkways of snow.
Yielding the right of way.
Avoiding road rage.
Going back to the old Scouts motto:
"Do a good turn daily."
Be courteous. The three most important words are "please" and "thank you."
That, my friend, is how you can make where you live great again.
