smile and the world smiles with you

there is a really great blog i follow called the jungle of life. it is the blog of lance ekum and he is involved with a something called "the levity project". this is what it is about:

"The Levity Project is a social movement creating change through public acts of play, laughter, and celebration. The mission of The Levity Project is to help decrease the spirit of negativity, stress, and fatigue in our society by infusing public spaces with a lighter and more buoyant energy.

The Levity Project is a movement that encourages everyone who participates and observes the events to see themselves as an agent of change in our world. Our goal is to create a global community in which people come together to create an upward spiral of global positive social change."

their new micro-movement is "smiling:video form". here is the explanation:

"We're looking for short videos of YOU, smiling!! Do it by yourself. With your family. With friends. With your kids. And make a short video. 5 - 10 seconds long is perfect! And that's the micro-movement. Together, from all reaches of our world, we can come together...united around the simplicity of a smile...and fun! "

i intend to make a video, with the help of t.willie, and i encourage you to do it too. because, hey, any chance to look goofy, is a chance to look goofy!!

aaaaaaaaaaand, please go on over to the jungle of life and see what it is about, you won't be sorry.
