It has been a tough week, and I was pondering what I needed to make me feel better. I decided it was humor. So I started looking at Ted Talks. Not all of them are funny, but usually the funny ones are also informative.
I chose the one below because the title intrigued me, and I figured it would give me the dose of laughter I needed to improve my mood. As I watched, I chuckled several times, and found it to be quite humorous.
So I would ask that you watch it for the same reason I did – mood improvement – but also for the two examples he provides at the end. Those two things really resonated with me, and are two that I know are critical for my wellbeing.
The video is not even 9 minutes long, so you can get that uplifted mood AND something to think about in no time at all.

I am perpetually curious and intend to share what I learn to encourage us all to be connected--with each other, to nature and to the planet. I am guided by the values of empathy and gratitude, and believe they gather us together in community. When we are thriving in community, we have the ability to be agents of change for our friends, family, our neighborhood and the world.
Nature has an unbelievable power to heal--through the plants she displays or spending time in her presence. I am currently enrolled at Cincinnati State Technical College pursuing certification in Landscape Design to bring the benefits of plants to my community.
As a student of Shamanism I believe the human and non-human inhabitants of our world are interconnected, and advocate a return to the indigenous view of revering all, only taking what is needed, and giving back to the Earth.
I have been happily married for 16 years to a man that is also a nature lover and supports me unconditionally in my spiritual journey.
