Sam, kindness is what makes the world better for all of us, especially now. Fully engaged in helping alleviate food insecurity in my suburban community has taught me more about the strength in extending a hand to others than anything I have done in my 68 years. It is what saves me from despair when I read about the unthinkable as it occurs in places like Minnesota and at detention facilities. Yet, people get up each day and help others, that is grace. Kindness wins.
This is beautifully said. Everyday acts of kindness is vital, especially in the face of things we cannot fix or even fully comprehend. Your work in the community sounds like a powerful counterforce.
Thank you from California. My heart is beyond broken about the horrific events in Minnesota. It’s unreal this is modern America. Powerful words! I also agree Nicole’s poem The Brown House was perfection!
Thank you from Pakistan. My heart is beyond broken about the horrific events in Minnesota. Kindness always wins
Mine too, Sehar. ♡

You are right, this is how kindness wins.

Hi Dorie. ♡ Her poem really was very accurate. This all feels unreal. Who needs fiction, right?
Isn’t it amazing how we can stack up for one another here, take on difficult circumstances, despite all the physical distance?
Yes, it has given me hope. Hope that empathy and the good side of human nature will win this fight.
Thank you Sam. From far off Australia I am with you and the people of Minnesota.
Hi Ian! 👋 Thanknyou, I appreciate your support.
🙏🏼
Like you, I believe empathy and the better side of human nature will rise above all this.
If for some reason they don’t, there isn’t much left to live on, to be honest.
