Five-year-old Hank went to the forest to work with his mom, dad, and older brother. Suddenly, it started raining, but they only had one raincoat. Dad gave the raincoat to Mom, Mom gave it to his brother, and his brother gave it to Hank. Hank asked, "Why did Dad give it to Mom, Mom give it to my brother, and my brother give it to me?" Dad replied, "Because Dad is stronger than Mom, Mom is stronger than your brother, and your brother is stronger than you. We protect those who are weaker." Hank looked around, then ran over and spread the raincoat open to cover a delicate little flower swaying in the wind and rain. The truly strong are not necessarily the most powerful or wealthy, but how helpful they are to others. Responsibility allows us to complete tasks, and love allows us to do them well.
