Bury a tiny seed in the soft, moist ground.
Awaken an endless chain of life.
Plant an act of kindness in the dark earth, hidden away where no one sees and no one knows.
Ignite a chain reaction of infinite light.
For yourself, for your children, for the entire world.
From one sincere deed, the whole world could change.

The world is on fire, literally and figuratively. I, too, have been inexplicably angrier over the last few years and sometimes dread that I may someday leave this world that way.
Still, we as individuals can resist flawed yet normalized human/societal nature thus behavior; and if enough people do this and perform truly humane acts, positive change on a large(r) scale may result.
Perhaps somewhat relevant to this are the words of American sociologist Stanley Milgram, of Obedience Experiments fame/infamy: “It may be that we are puppets — puppets controlled by the strings of society. But at least we are puppets with perception, with awareness. And perhaps our awareness is the first step to our liberation.”
