CHANGE YOUR LENS, SEE WHAT’S RIGHT WITH THE WORLD
 
Sunday, February 19, 2023 
 
 
 
 
Nothing heavy or deep for today – it’s been a week with too much of that.
 
 
 
Time now for something short, sweet, uplifting of our spirit and a reminder that all those bad things in the world haven’t gone away, but they are eclipsed by so much simple magic …
 
 
 
Case in point, this is our family day weekend in Alberta.
 
 
 
I am so happy for everyone having fun, squeezing their kids, and laughing as loud as they can.
 
 
 
For those who struggle, I’ll offer you a ray of sunshine today; take a few minutes to watch a TedTalk by Dewitt Jones, it’s not a new one, but I watched it for the first time yesterday. And then the second time, and the third …
 
 
 
Many thanks to FW, who sent this to me so I could send it to others; you are welcome,
 
 
 
It’s not a talk designed for this day or any holiday – but it’s perfect any day, and more so for a gloomy day anybody might be having.
 
 
 
So far, over 1.3 million people have watched it, but I’m not sure if that is 450,000 who watched it three times …
 
 
 
Here is Dewitt’s gift to us all, and I’m passing it along to you.
 
 
 
Happy Sunday, happy life, and happy family day weekend.
