I will be reading tonight on the Park University Campus. This will be my first time in this venue and I have some brand new material. The combination of the two makes for a particular "high" that is satisfying. Now if I just do well and the reception is good.
Completely off the subject of my reading tonight, I wanted to share this quotation from Ursula K. Le Guin.
"It is a terrible thing, this kindness that human beings do not lose. Terrible because when we are finally naked in the dark and cold, it is all we have. We who are so rich, so full of strength, wind up with that small change. We have nothing else to give."
I wonder is it really so terrible? Perhaps we value kindness too little.
