So there are a lot of viral videos out their, whether their purpose is to inform, advertise, or evoke emotion, like this one.
I came across one this afternoon that I really liked. Check it out:
What I enjoy so much about this video is all the work that went into making it possible. It’s amazing to watch the dancers that gradually fill the room, after lurking among the crowd. This is one of those videos that makes you feel good about humanity. It sounds cheesy, but the content itself is light-hearted, humorous, and just plain enjoyable. To some extent it’s unexplainable, but watch the sense of community. Think about how pleasant it must have been to have been passing by unexpectedly and have this unfold before you. If you were having a crappy day, how wouldn’t this have made it better?
It’s nice to think about how this may have inspired someone to do a good deed that day. Or, even think about the people they influenced, whether directly through their kind action or by sharing the pictures and videos from that moment.
The world is a great place, and it’s fun to see moments like this evolve into a beautiful piece in the greater picture of humanity. After watching this video, what will you do?

I love this video. And it makes me so happy I cry. Really.
And your bit about inspiring people? Lovely.
Haha. Thanks, Linda. I’m glad you enjoyed it! Isn’t it amazing how the energy that the video captures still doesn’t compare to what it must have been like in that moment? But it’s still so powerful to watch on the computer…
