Hi Varda!
Very good moral, I wish everyone would put it into practice.
well, they know more than us what it means to share something with someone, they don't know about selfishness, they were taught this way from a young age that everyone fights together for their life and food, not who we are the most selfish, I have it, you don't have it, our children she wouldn't do that, but they would take it for themselves, I'm not saying for everyone, but we're not like them
