Dear Representative Schakowsky:
I wish you great health and I hope that all of your political ambitions will be realized to the fullest extent. When you recently appeared on "City Desk," you included among your closing remarks to Carol Marin, the following words: "push the button that can make the difference." In good faith, I'm asking you to do just that: to "push the button" for a noble and wonderful cause, a simple idea (whose time is long overdue), for combating "teen" and "adult" violence, namely, the declaration of a "CHICAGO KINDNESS DAY." Last November, at a branch of TRUMAN COLLEGE, I lectured over twenty students on the subject of "KINDNESS DAY." If you choose, you can read my lecture on www.normankozak.com. On "CHICAGO KINDNESS DAY," the practice of "KINDNESS," would be "up front," in the "sharp focus," and uppermost in the minds of the citizenry and "family of CHICAGO." This would come about through mass media coverage, and "memory joggers," such as word-of-mouth, the distribution of "KINDNESS buttons and leaflets given to students at school, newsletters "talking-up" "KINDNESS DAY," sent to students" parents, and "visible reminders," - the posting of "KINDNESS" saying in conspicuous places.
A movement of power-up "KINDNESS," to its "topmost level," could become so "highly contagious," that it would have a "ripple effect" throughout the surrounding communities, the nation, and globally, as well.
As people "go up" in KINDNESS, they "go-down" in the commission of "acts of evil." People act the way they think, and if they steadfastly focus their attention on "KINDNESS" "KINDNESS" will become a magnet, and will expand and snowball. Representative Schakowsky, you can be instrumental and "get the ball rolling" in support for this great and noble cause. I, humbly, ask you to "push the buttons that can make the difference." If this idea "catches on," "the sky's the limit." God bless you and your loved ones, Sincerely, Norman Kozak |
