Juspat I'm not saying I think I can fix the worlds problems, I just want them to stop :)
But I hear you about the kindness thing. In fact, there is a woman that lives in my apartment building who has some type of mental illness. At first she was hard to take because she was so damned friendly!
Anyhow, one day in exchanging neighbor to neighbor pleasantries (Hi, how are you? etc), she said out of the clear blue- "Thank you for being kind"
It floored me and show me that I am still very much an alcoholic in my thinking...........
