Caring for the elders in any society
RECENTLY, the world witnessed an extraordinary event. Aug. 18 was more of a dream than reality. It was surreal! Many kept wondering if it actually happened. Others could not come to accept that it has happened. Everyone was in a state where reality seemed more like an illusion. He did it! When we almost gave up, he did not stop fighting.
