To the Editor:

Iwould like to personally complimentJohn M. Imperiale on his inspiring commentary (“Focus on the Positive: Inspiration Is All Around Us,” 5/3). I agree with him totally that “the (negative, divisive) tone of our society” has worsened since this past election of President Trump.

As his commentary reflected on the crude behavior of many in our society, Ihave tosay that it’s a source of frustration to me as well.
