When Did We Stop being Happy for Each Other?

It's Friday night and I'm enjoying a lazy evening in pajamas watching TV. Normally I would watch a movie, but this evening a guilty pleasure is on that I couldn't resist: Master Chef Junior, and I love this show for two reasons: 1. because the level these kids are cooking at blows me away - not to mention the pressure of being part of a major cooking competition like this, and 2. because when the kids get up before the judges with their food, they seem genuinely happy for each other when they do well.

Tonight's reminder is going to be short and sweet because I'm tired and want to keep mindlessly watching the show but I believe we could learn a lot from children - not the least of which, being happy for the successes of other people instead of being threatened by them.

And that's pretty much it...
