The singer Dean Martin was born today in 1917 and so I’m sharing a clip of him singing When You’re Smiling. Wherever you’re recording this, I hope you can find many reasons to smile throughout your life. I send everyone best wishes and much love now and always.
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.

A little opera music for today
It’s the opera singer Cecilia Bartoli’s birthday today and so I’m sharing the clip below of her singing a piece of music called Ombra Mai Fu. It really is beautiful and it helps me feel happy. Wherever you are reading this, even if opera music isn’t your thing, I hope there are many things and people in your life that help you feel happy. I send everyone best wishes and much love now and always.

In honor of Pride month
As it is Pride month I want to reinforce the idea that love and relationships where people equally love each other and act on that love to take care of each other, should be celebrated. To people who are part of the LGBTQIA+ community, I send you much love and light. Love is love.

A really sweet video
I saw this really sweet video today about a goose who was really lonely after her mate died so someone put out an ad asking for a mate for the goose and was able to find a mate for the goose. The story made me smile so I am sharing it here. Wherever you are reading this, I hope you have people that love you and who you love in return in your life. I send everyone best wishes and much love now and always.
