The best way to fight evil is with small acts of kindness. — Gandlaf, The Hobbit
The actual quote is “…what I have found it is the small everyday deeds or ordinary folks that keep the darkness at bay.” but I like my version better. And it holds true more often then we may like to consider.
It really is the little things in life that stay with us. A sunrise, a smile from a passing stranger, someone stopping so you can cross the street in the rain, a kind word, a display of common decency, all of these thing recognize us and connect us as human beings, as equals.
Let me know what you think…
