My Writings
Be kind.
Achieve wisdom and exercise that skill.
The world has always been filled
With angry greedy people.
You cannot legislate them away,
Or hope that they will die out.
The world has always relied on people
Who are kind and wise,
To act as counterbalances to these others.
Unfortunately, the World supply of angry greedy people
Appears to be limitless,
So there will always be a need for kindness and wisdom.
You might just save the world.

I looked at your blog and saw it was now marked private. Will you still use it for invited guests?

I don’t really know how it works … the problem is that she is quite possibly one of my followers under a false name etc. It’s what she does.

Ah. Um, it’s not me! But I will send the official request through WordPress and if you find you can still blog that way it would be splendid. If not, you know you can still follow blogs without having one of your own? I have several followers who do that – much the same as you are still able to comment on here although you’ve sealed off your blog.

Another nice poem Mick. I personally think that kind people outweigh the others by a vast amount but unfortunately the unkind have the louder voices.

That may be true, Jonno, I don’t know. I hope it’s true. They certainly have the louder voices.

I could not agree more! Far too many of us try to counteract hate with more hate, and that doesn’t work. We need to model the behavior that we want to see…that is the only thing that works.

Yes. Set an example and show that it matters.

Humanity is an odd critter. Sometimes the angry, greedy people can be kind, and the kind people can be angry and greedy. Maybe if the angry, greedy types figured out that the returns on kindness are greater than those of anger and greed, they’d work more on kindness.

It would be good if they did, Dave, but not many change. I suppose they don’t think that kindness and greed work very well together, and I’m not sure they do myself.
