Why do we consider human limitations as just that, "limitations?" What we are, we are. No one is perfect. Some people are incapacitated, ill, elderly, etc. This is reality, not a defect to be corrected. We get by. We get by with a little help from our friends, as the song goes. Helping others is humanity at its best. Also, it establishes a relationship between those who help and need help. Isn't that good? Establishing relationships with others is what humans do.
