hi garden... by 'edge' do you mean something like a place where your wits run out, where what you've been doing isnt working and you are in a place to try something unusual? like you've never tried before?

ive read the definition of insanity is doing the same things over and over again, exactly the same way, but expecting a different outcome....

trust is not easy.... there are no guarantees and we are not in Utopia yet...

kindness is a coin with two sides, on one side is the community, on the other is ourselves... we are kindest to ourselves when we have faith that our community enjoys kindness the same as we do being individuals inside the community...

the numbers of the good hearted will always outnumber the mean spirited simply because our human nature wants it that way..... like we have an inner instinctual knowledge that helping is healthy, harming is not ...

logic tells us that if we choose to harm others, we equally do ourselves harm and if we harm ourself, we equally harm others....

in the middle is the coins edge... if we do not lean one way or the other we can be in a place of perfect center and we can decide for ourselves what colors to paint our own portraits.... kindness is the way many of us would like to be treated and so by becoming 'the kindness within' we can feel in control to some degree.... we self protect by remaining cautious because fi we do not learn from our mistakes we just might repeat them

ty for sharing with us
