Try A Little Kindness
By David L. Shadrick
Hello and welcome to Calamity Politics and “News That Bites” with David Shadrick and Calamity Clown. Calamity has stood us up. She sent me a note scribbled on the back of a Nancy Pelosi fund raising letter telling me she intended to spend the afternoon curled up in Bernie Sanders’ lap, while he reads his “Medicare4All” plan aloud.
It Ain’t Easy
This is probably the hardest article I have ever tried to write. It shouldn’t be that hard to simply remind everyone that we all need to be a little bit nicer to each other. As the world around us experiences the chaos that is existence, we need to remember to take a few extra minutes to embrace kindness, as a life choice.
Reserve Your Condemnation
When I do fundraising I often times have to remind volunteers not to become agitated or angry when someone doesn’t make a donation, or worse, is disrespectful. I remind them that there are so many charities begging for money; and people have limited resources. I know what it’s like to be on a fund raisers platinum mailing list.
