"Kindness" by Naomi Shihab Nye

The thrush nightingale (Luscinia luscinia) sings at warm spring night. It’s crystal clear, loud and beautiful song echoes from the barn wall. In northern Europe summer spring nights won’t get dark at all and therefore nightingale continues singing from dusk to dawn. Some sheep make noise in the barn walking around.

Xavier Le Pichon, one of the world's leading geophysicists, helped create the field of plate tectonics. A devout Catholic and spiritual thinker, he raised his family in intentional communities centered around people with mental disabilities. He shares his rare perspective on the meaning of humanity -- a perspective equally informed by his scientific and personal encounters with fragility as a fundament of vital, evolving systems. Le Pichon has come to think of caring attention to weakness as an essential quality that allowed humanity to evolve.
