Kindness

NewMexiKen is taking the day off to celebrate the blog’s sixth anniversary.
The posts today are being written by readers just like you. This is from Rick Chlopan.

Tim O’Reilly (Founder and CEO, O’Reilly Media) twitter post this morning:

Lovely NYT review of book On Kindness: http://bit.ly/v5zF7 2nd para and last line are worth taking to heart. Hegelian antithesis of Ayn Rand.

The last line in the review he references:

Indeed, the ones who pay the largest price for our contemporary cloak-and-dagger relationship with kindness are children, whom adults fail by neglecting to help them “keep . . . faith with” kindness, and thereby sentence to a life “robbed of one of the greatest sources of human happiness.”
