A Child's Question: A Father's Tears

Once upon a time, a man tried to answer his child's question about why some people are mean. The man thought about it; because it was a very good question after all. Then he told his little one that there had always been some people who were mean and some who were kind—and we could only do our very best to make sure that kindness wins in the end.

"Will there always be mean people?" asked the child.
"I'm afraid so," answered the father. "There has always been—so it is likely there will always be."

Then the man kissed his child and put the little one to bed and walked quietly out of the room. The man sat in the dark and cried. He cried for the world that was now his child's.
