Even the briefest touch of kindness...




 Wonderful acceptance speech of Nobel Peace Prize laureate Aung San Suu Kyi in Norway.

I really liked the parts where she talked about kindness and compassion fatigue.

This is going to sound corny, but so what. Hehe! Seriously, I really believe that everyone would add a little more ounce of kindness and compassion for others, things could just be a little bit better.

I mentioned this belief to Pg Boy during one of our more serious talks in a very informal location. (We were standing in bus 518 on the way to Orchard I think and we were talking about some recently much-discussed topics locally.)

Anyway...

Watch the video. Or you may also read the speech here.
