Not kindness less noble
“‘There reaches a point where you see other humans drowning, or washed ashore with nothing,’ says Tara, ‘where there is no possibility other than to help with all your heart. It isn’t kindness, exactly—because there is less element of choice than people think, and for this reason it is less noble.’” Robert Macfarlane, Underland: A Deep Time Journey, p 116.
This passage reflects fairly precisely my caring for my sister—or my present view of it.
