the Essence of Civilization has ALWAYS been KINDNESS

Without human kindness Civilization withers and dies away like it is in the U.S. right now and unfortunately this affects the whole world directly and indirectly.

So, finding ways of being kind is very helpful.

Like last night my wife and I were standing on a beach on Maui and a stranger with a family walked up and asked us if he could take a picture of us with our phone. Of course we said "Yes" and he got 3 or 4 great pictures of us with the sun setting behind us. Later we were sitting on a bench just past the sand and he looked our way and I waved back at him in thanks.

The little things like this "Human Kindness" are what keep civilization alive.

What has been happening in the U.S. lately is the opposite of human kindness and is the disintegration of a civil society temporarily or permanently (but usually temporarily hopefully).
