Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
The Dalai Lama
For those not as enlightened as the Dalai Lama and unwilling to wait for the results of thousands of hours of meditation, David Brooks has some suggestions in his latest column in the New York Times, Kindness Is a Skill – Practical tips for fighting a culture of savagery. I find his commentary on events in America at right angles to the usual left-right divide. It’s refreshing to get a new look from a different angle instead of the same old party lines and talking point.
