TEDxGreenville Open Blog post by Jay Spivey.

There is something peculiarly intoxicating about watching an animation as someone talks.  It involves the senses in a way that makes you watch, think and listen all at once.  To me these are the most rewarding of TED videos for they stay on my mind for long periods of time.  I can imagine this talk on empathy in my daydreams – quite a wonderful thing, really.  If politicians, history teachers and ministers could use this method of describing their points – I think we’d all be just a bit wiser.

  1. Amen! Let us begin, if we have not already to open out hearts, to raise our consciousness and our voices to practice until we BECOME EMPATHETIC to ALL God’s children and the creatures He has given us. What a beautiful world this will be when we DO IT!

    Thanks Jay for sharing this.
