Writer's Ego Massaged

Rage, Anger, Untruths, War … or  Human Kindness … Christmas spirit

It’s easy to slip into a negative feeling about political mischief, corruption and so on. I’d be very surprised if most of the vilified people don’t have a kind and generous side, and people who have little but good things to say about them.
