....that after these past few years of so much hatred, self-centeredness, and outright cruelty, that the pendulum will swing in the other direction and kindness, compassion, and basic human caring will become the latest fashion, and the "ME! ME! ME!" fad and "GREED IS GOOD!" craze will go out of style.

That would be a social trend I could join right in on.
