Happy Conversations https://loopvids.s3.amazonaws.com/Jun08_Post.mp4 One thing people are terrified of, conversationally, is unexpected questions. Questions that make them feel on the spot.

Gaze With Eyes Of Wonder
Appreciation https://loopvids.s3.amazonaws.com/Jun07_Post.mp4 There are plenty of things in life that are truly magnificent.
