Most of the time though, I had to run behind them on my one ball bearing skate.

Young students come to me (I'm vocational advisor) and I see: it is not that much that has changed. Though to give children time to develop is something absolutely necessary, seldom granted now. But surely a requirement to "be in color some day".
