I have been witnessing a lot of random acts of kindness and neighborly concern in NYC this week, mainly on the subway. Strangers helping out strangers, people are generally being courteous and considerate, shop assistants genuinely saying "Hi, how are you?" It is SO LOVELY!
This week is that sweet spot of the year where people are filled with holiday joy but not too stressed out by it. Last week everyone was in standard New-York-City-don't-get-involved mode and predictably next week everyone will be losing their mind with the pressure to be happy, merry and have a good time with their loved ones. But this week, well… this week is beautiful.
