We shared this last night (in a church discussion group) as we continue your six-episode discussion of gratitude on Work of the People. We also showed a talk by Rutger Bergman, https://youtu.be/aIL_Y9g7Tg0 Next week, we will show your third installment along with a talk by Kate Raworth https://www.ted.com/talks/kate_raworth_a_healthy_economy_should_be_designed_to_thrive_not_grow We want to do this to not only to underscore the importance of what you are trying to say, but to also show that voices from other disciplines are also providing examples of how these ideas might be implemented in a societal, economic and political context. As you say, it is both an emotional response and a moral choice.

Have a blessed and safe Thanksgiving. When you have an opportunity to give it is always a blessing to the giver.

So good to hear this again. Blew me away when I first heard it from you in Lincoln NE last year! Saved it to my favs to have bookmarked for when I need a fresh reminder.
