Wen<p>Well some good news for a change. People are generally kind, and even if it took Covid to remind us all, we continue to try to do the best for our communities.</p><p><a href="https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2025/mar/20/covid-benevolence-bump-endures-kindness-10-higher-before-2020" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2</span><span class="invisible">025/mar/20/covid-benevolence-bump-endures-kindness-10-higher-before-2020</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/Kindness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Kindness</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/Optimism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Optimism</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/RealHumanity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RealHumanity</span></a></p>
Joy<p>This resonated with me today. I'm going to do my best to make those around me and those I'm connected to (that's you!) a little bit happier, despite *gestures wildly in all directions*!

David August<p>“What if our fixation on everything falling apart is blinding us to cracks of light breaking through the rubble? To the opportunities quietly unfolding while we’re too busy scrolling through the next disaster? Despair is a heavy, immobilizing force. And in a world on fire, inaction is its most dangerous side effect.” </p><p>via <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@Daojoan" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>Daojoan</span></a></span> </p><p><a href="https://www.joanwestenberg.com/rebel-optimism-how-we-thrive-in-a-broken-world/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">joanwestenberg.com/rebel-optim</span><span class="invisible">ism-how-we-thrive-in-a-broken-world/</span></a> </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/optimism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>optimism</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/hope" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>hope</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/inspiration" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>inspiration</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/future" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>future</span></a></p>
Andrew Woods<p>Yesterday, I heard the song “We Are The World” for the first time in forever. It reminds me of a time when people were more united in the idea of wanting humanity to be better. The amount of division in society today highlights that we've lost something in the last 20 years. </p><p>Proposal: We remind people of this optimism by including “We Are The World” into the mix of songs played during this holiday season. </p><p><a href="https://phpc.social/tags/music" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>music</span></a> <a href="https://phpc.social/tags/christmas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>christmas</span></a> <a href="https://phpc.social/tags/optimism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>optimism</span></a></p>

Jo-stands on guard, elbows up.<p>I like how overall it’s like the ‘glass half full/half empty, both at the same time like Schrodingers Disability…but I had to choose one…and I chose to love life regardless, find my way through. That my attitude, goal, approach helped me heal so much. I have always been an optimist.
