I have an important question to ask and I would like people to answer it.<\/p>\n<p>It all started yesterday.  I was talking with the very famous Sima, the person who keeps my fingernails from falling off (yes, falling off&#8230; not exactly like leprosy, but just as ugly and painful) and she was telling me about someone she met who was a truly kind person.  She talked about how this person was caring and giving and completely unselfish and told me that she has to be a very rare person.  Well, I thought, she does sound very kind and caring, but I don&#8217;t know if she is very rare.  In my experience, most of the people I meet and most of the people I know could be thought of in the very same way.  Every day I see people being kind to others.  I see people going out of their way for others.  I think that the unkind person is the exception.<\/p>\n<p>Granted, out on the road, especially in Israel, people can act most uncharitably.  Some people seem to get a kick out of keeping others from changing lanes, from driving at the speed limit, from stopping for pedestrians&#8211; but get those same people in  situation where help is needed, and I&#8217;m guessing they would be running over each other to be of help- even to a complete stranger.<\/p>\n<p>So there&#8217;s the question.  What&#8217;s your experience?  Are people basically good and kind and giving or are they mean and selfish? <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well, friends, I have written 433 blog posts and now I think it&#8217;s time for you to do some work.
