And the elderly are closest oh what clues we could retrieve.
For their characters are closest to how we’ll be on high.

They’ve let go of the frivolous and kept things that are dear.
The memories of so sweet, of loved ones that were near.
As a nation, we are missing our greatest true resource,
To get to know our elders and let them guide our course”.
