Kindness and gentleness light up the soul

Dublin Literary Award winner, Colum McCann, decided to write the great Irish novel but couldn't because he 'wasn't messed up enough'.

Interesting comment. Often it can be the sad events, the nasty comments, the sneers that can inspire people with passion and energy.

But sometimes too the good days, the pleasant experiences, can be moments of inspiration.

From time to time we all meet people who greatly inspire and motivate us. And those moments too need capturing and even talking and writing about.

And those encounters put into relief so much of the nonsense and humbug people have to endure.

They confirm us in the craziness and silliness of so much but they also give people hope.
