  29. When I was about 8 years old we had a mentally challenged fellow who lived in our neighborhood. Everyone use to make fun of him. My dad didn't get upset easily but this really upset him. He would always spend time talking to this fellow. I asked him one day why. He said, "Every living thing deserves respect, never forget that." He didn't have a lot of education but he was a very wise man and taught me many things. He died when I was 10 from cancer but I've tried to live my life as a legacy to him.
