The Extermination of Kindness. Yes! Let's just do away with it all!

Ok, so really, how has it come to be that we live in a society where kindness is a crime?  

Where compassion and common courtesy get you nowhere? 

A world in which genuine thoughtfulness is frowned upon, or even worse, taken advantage of.  

I don't want any part of that kind of society.

Yes, I'm in a pretty bitter place right now. And yes, yes, I know....it's good I'm writing about it. A good sign.

I don't have many moments of discouragement like this, but this is a fairly big one. And one that makes my heart very very sad.

And of course, you know I'll get over it in a couple days. The bitterness will dissipate.  

But man. Right now. It's. Just. Not. Right.

Hi Shayne, for sure "the bitterness will dissipate" and time will heal. who did you get stuck in the elevator with?

Of course it will, Shad :) It's just, I kept seeing these small, random acts of UN-kindness popping up over and over again, in the most random places, with people I know and didn't know, and it just got to me, you know? Of course you know :)....but the universe was showing me them for a reason (see, I DID actually listen to you once in a while). I got discouraged, but just for a little while. Now, it's time to go commit some random acts of KINDNESS!
Love you always!
