You must have been reading my mind, Howard. I've been laying awake at night wondering how we humans can come together. I believe that, at our core, we are not so very different. We all want meaning in our lives and most of us want to feel appreciated and respected.
I write about the 3 key elements of kindness....kindness in thought, communication, and action, exploring the scientific benefits of making kindness a daily habit. As I've gotten farther and farther down the rabbit hole 🐇, I keep wondering how we can cultivate a culture of kindness that allows us to engage, disagree, and collaborate.
Negativity, rude behavior, and just being downright mean spirited are front and center. It's scientifically proven that humans have a negativity bias (and media knows and uses that fact to their advantage). However, it's not insurmountable and the benefits of positive and civil behavior far outweigh the negative.
I'm trying to do my little bit, each week, by writing about the benefits of kindness and how to implement kindness as a life strategy. It's not enough.
So, I know what I want to have. I'm just fumbling around with how to get there! There doesn't seem to be a google map for that.

Do you have some directions?
