Dean of St. Philip's Cathedral in Atlanta, The Very Rev. Sam Candler ’82 M.Div. would rather bless than curse. "People learning how to pray together, serve together, get angry together, and love together—that’s what’s going to save the world,” he says.

It’s so good to sometimes read about people with a true moral compass that stand for what the believe in. It’s uplifting to see people do the right thing even when it’s difficult.

I regularly get random animals (well, mainly cats and foxes) come and stare at me outside my studio. That is already uplifting, but today was especially good in in that one actually came in and stayed for a while. Hopefully it’ll not be the last time. My next mission is for a fox to do the same. Anyone know how to befriend a fox?

I was just listening to "Strong Songs", one of my favorite podcasts, but it was re-airing an episode of "Aria Code", a podcast I haven't heard before, about single opera arias.
This half hour episode from 2021 is looking at Nessum Dorma, intersecting it tightly with vignettes by an ICU doctor describing moments from the first year of the pandemic. It's very much worth a listen - uplifting, emotional, hopeful. Vincero!

“Nessun Dorma” has long been opera’s crossover hit. But in the last year, it’s become something more -- an anthem of hope.

In a surprising turn of events, I didn't see a single kid in a k-pop demon hunters Halloween outfit in two hours.
Slightly less surprising but definitely more uplifting, there wasn't a Squid Game costume to be seen either.
Good job #berlin parents.

My StoryGraph 2025 mood map, a descent into the dark side! Will have to remember to read more uplifting & #cosy stuff this year

I have believed for a long time now that humanity has proven incapable of a 'gradual decline' of anything that it is truly dependent on even if alternatives are available.
We seem pre-programmed to use something to the max... hit rock bottom in terms of impacts on our own health and general well being… and then go pretty much cold turkey. (either through replacement or outright abstinence).
I believe it will be the same with fossil fuels.
We are possibly seeing a slight reduction now globally in overall use of oil. But it is still far and away too too much.
Maybe we’ll cut this by 10% or 20% in the next 10 or 20 years... but zero by 2050? Not a chance.
I believe we will go and go and go, until one day we can go no more, the pressure is too great, the casualties too high, the effects too devastating, and the impact of complete shutdown of the fossil fuel industry in less than 5 years will seem less bad than the damage we have already done and are sure to suffer in future.
I hope I live to see that day, not out of morbidity, but out of hope. I want to die knowing we finally did it. I don't know if that's going to happen.
Not an uplifting prediction, I know, but seriously, tell me I'm wrong.
