Sunny Friday: “That’s life!”

Happy Friday, sunbeams! Here’s a recap of what went down on The Sunny Way this week:

  • On Monday, I wrote about Martin Seligman’s TED talk and how we may be able to make ourselves ridiculously happy while also changing the world.
  • Tuesday and Wednesday, Sarah wrote about her experience at last week’s Capitol Climate Protest—I so wish I could have been there!
  • Yesterday, I was irritated by what I read in Pronoia, but in a good way.

Today’s video tells the story of Kogepan, a jam bun who is disgruntled with life because he got burnt when he was baked in the oven. Now other, more perfectly baked buns point and laugh at him wherever he goes. “If only that time I didn’t get burnt,” he dreams. “What an ideal life.” Sure, there are some morals about life in here—and they’re not so subtle that they need to be pointed out—but mostly it’s just fun to see a jam bun be disgruntled and surly.

See you next week, when Uli will write about our collective fitness agreement, Victoria will educate us on germinating seeds, and Chris Neidl from Solar One answers 11 Questions about I Heart PVs, his project to make New York City into the solar capital of the East Coast. Have a great weekend!
