This post is a true marvel. You have a way with words that is a real gift, and it almost makes me a bit jealous :P
I think it comes down to being mindful of all the opportunities we have, every single day, to make a really small effort has a relatively large positive benefit for somebody else. If we all do this, we can go so much further altogether.
I am sure you have many talents that I do not, so the sarcastic jealousy is reciprocated lol.
Also, I am completely with you on your closing paragraph.
