Strangers can make people feel happier

I was just reading a really interesting article about how scientific studies have proven that interacting with strangers can help people feel better. The study found that people feel happier when they interact more with people around them, even if the people around them are strangers. There's just something about interacting that helps people feel better. I like to think this is because we're all connected in some way and as such, people need to strengthen that connection with each other to feel better.  In the spirit of making a virtual connection, I send best wishes and much love to all who read this.

Making history while overcoming the past

I saw this clip of the gymnast Simone Biles making history by winning her 6th National Gymnastics Title by landing a triple double (2 flips and three twists in a floor exercise). She also performed a double-double dismount on the balance beam (2 twists and 2 flips in midair). It was really cool to watch her performance because she has overcome so much adversity. I'm really glad that she won all those 6 titles and the things people will remember he most for is that she has made history and is a brilliant gymnast. It shows me that no matter what happened in your past, it doesn't define your future and so many great things are possible as long as you're willing to work towards them and not stop until your goal is reached.  To all who read this, whatever goal you are working towards, I wish you every success in your work and I send you best wishes now and always.

Here and now

"The time to be happy is now, and the place to be happy is here."-Robert Green Ingersoll

For me, there's something nice about knowing that there's a possibility for happiness wherever you are even if that possibility seems dim, it's still there. For me, looking for that happiness has helped make a lot of difficult situations feel better. I may not always have found that happiness but when I have found it,  At the very least, it gives me hope that things will get better. Wherever you are reading this, I hope that you search for and find happiness wherever you are.

Accessible music

I just saw a story of a woman named Gaelynn Lea who plays the violin and uses the songs she write not just to entertain people but also to advocate for the rights of people with disabilities. Gaelynn  has a brittle bone disease called osteogenesis imperfecta and has learned to play the violin as if it were a cello, as the violin is too long for her to rest it on her shoulder.  Her music really is beautiful and it makes me think of how music can be a force for change. Plus I really like her message that if you really want to do something you can always find a way to do it. To learn more about Gaelynn Lee watch the clip below.

Something to remember

"Just remember, you can do anything you set your mind to, but it takes action, perseverance, and facing your fears." -Gillian Anderson

One thing I like about people is that they can get through so many things and do so many great things. If there is something good that you want to do, I hope that you pursue it. Whatever good thing it is you want to do, I wish you every success now and always.
