I truly believe empathy and kindness are the most important virtues a person and society can have. There is a reason every major religion has some version of the Golden Rule.

One woman was monopolizing much of the conversation and I overheard her talking about these “annoying friends” of her daughter who overstayed their welcome and would eat her food.
