I set out in life like many idealistic people, with the goal of helping people to live happier and more fulfilling lives. To that end, I've created this blog to spread a bit of cheer each day.

Armistice Day
As it's Armistice Day/Veterans Day I started thinking about World War I and how during one Christmas in 1914 soldiers stopped fighting and actually sang Christmas carols and got out of their trenches to greet each other. I realize that a few days after this they went right back to fighting each other but for that brief time these men treated each other as human beings. It makes me think of how despite our differences we can still be united and celebrate the good things we find in each other. Anyway, I thank all veterans for their service. To learn about the Christmas Armistice watch the video below.
