Tough times create tough and selfless people. Soft times create a soft and selfish people.

You're absolutely right, Laz, and this is why I have more concerns about an easy life for my family than a difficult one.

My boys and I were at a religious foundation on Saturday, and one of the religious Brothers, a gentleman from Kenya, told me the boys needed to see me eating, or they would be worried about me. He was not used to societies in which there is always plenty of food available, but to ones in which there was no surplus.

Does any of us have experience of children's being concerned that their parents might not get enough to eat? I certainly don't!
