There are fathers waiting until other obligations are less demanding to become acquainted with their sons. There are mothers who sincerely intend to be more attentive to their daughters. There are husbands and wives who are going to be more understanding, but time does not draw people closer. When in the world are we going to begin to live as if we understood that this is life? This is our time, our day, and it is passing. What are we waiting for?
