I suspect the movie 'Sully' resonates with you. A beautiful disaster if there ever was one.

I don't think you are taught to be kind. You either are, or not. My mother was always kind, until she wasn't any more. Brain disease.

But I think you are taught to trust, which would include trusting your own kindness.

What one wants is crucial, as the Buddhists keep trying to tell us. (What we tell machines or people to want is likewise crucial, as science fiction tells us over and over. Get that one too wrong and we might not get a do-over.)
