Charles Schulz wrote this letter in reply to a 10-year-old kid who had written and asked, “What makes a good citizen?” Although this letter was written in 1970, almost 54 years to the day, it very much reads as if it could have been written today. Let’s keep asking ourselves this question, as well as trying to be good citizens. Let’s help others to be good, to be kind, and to keep helping others, every single day. #movehumanityforward
