I offer you a little affirmation this snowy Friday morning.

Just take a moment to think about that.

We do not need to tell ourselves we were made in a God's image, or that we are the center of the universe, to believe we have value. We already HAVE value!

We are quite literally one with the universe.

And what makes us unique, different from all of the other creatures with whom we share this planet, is that we have the capacity to understand that.

My new imaginary girlfriend just sent this to me so of course I posted it.

I know a lot of you already sent me this video earlier, and I was probably going to post it, but then SHE sent it to me special (You know, along with everybody else on her e-mail list).

This may sound a little cocky, but I have to say I am pretty proud to have been one of the original 45 on that list.  Number 44 to be exact.

And speaking of cocky I would just like to point out that the entire time Ms. Dupuy is talking in this video she keeps staring right into my eyes.  Oh yeah, there's magic.
