Winning the Day for Humankind

Those looking for an uplifting experience can find one in today’s “poem for today” at the Writer’s Almanac.

Not to oversimplify the complex morass we have before ourselves on planet Earth, but we seem to be caught in a struggle between compassion and greed, between kindness and selfishness.  I’m convinced that the fate of humankind depends on our ability to let the best parts of ourselves—all of us—shine through.

My heart swelled with joy and hope when I read this earlier this morning; yours will too.
