Hello, friends of the ‘forest! How often do you think about how you will be remembered? This cute-and-quirky video sent to us from SuperForester Sheri offers a wonderful suggestion.
The video below was made from an essay Amy Krouse Rosenthal wrote about kindness. It’s so SuperForesty feel-good!
Mentioned in the clip is Dacher Keltner’s book: Born To Be Good. This excerpt sums up why we choose to emphasize the inherent positivity of our delicious selves:
Perhaps more remarkable are the feelings evoked in hearing of others’ kindness – the swelling in the chest, goosebumps, and occasional tearing. Through touch, cooperation and kindness can spread across people and physical spaces within seconds. The emotions that promote a meaningful life are powerfully contagious, which increases their chance for propagation, and their encoding into our nervous systems and their ritualization into cultural practice.
How do YOU want to be remembered?
In abundance and kindness,
Sheri
