Most everything we do is habitual.

a heightened sense of community.
It draws our chins up and
helps us look above and over
the limiting fence of our own events,

in the midst of a holiday bustle.
If you are attentive,
you will notice the gentle touch
and will be able to respond. Remember...
There are no small acts of kindness.
Every compassionate act makes large the world.
