Day of Charity

I'm pleased to declare today an official Day of Charity.

We're going to be light on organised events today. Instead we will spend our time in quiet acts of kindness and forgiving. If we have disagreements - for, to be sure, we all have different viewpoints - we will deal with them through dialogue and mutual respect. We will not resort to vilification, no matter how much we are vilified.

And who knows? If today's Day of Charity is a success, we may do it every year.
