Hey everyone!

As you may already know, we're working on adding various types of videos to the growth path. So far, these include educational type videos on things like mindfulness or the science of happiness, motivational videos, and cute, cuddly animal videos.

Lots of you have been really helpful sharing your favourite videos and many of these are now in line to be added to the growth path to help our members (yay!). Now we're looking for heartwarming videos! We need videos that makes you go "ahhh", videos that show the kindness of humans... really, anything that gives you hope and makes you feel good inside when you watch it.

Here are the criteria for heartwarming videos:

-They make you smile
-They boost your mood
-You'd share it with a friend
-It is under 5 minutes (ideally under 3 minutes)

Here are a few examples:
Mother, Daughter & Pineapple

Wife hearing for the first time

They Gave A Homeless Man a Pizza

If you post a video in this thread and we use it in the growth path, then you'll receive the Cute and Cuddly Badge. Thank you!

Something that when I first saw it brought a tear or two to my eyes, very empowering, heartwarming and touching:

Whilst I'm here, I'd like to share also this video that touched the lives of 58 Million people for just a minute. I'm not sure my eyes could see anything cuter for the rest of my life. That is the epitome of cuteness, and heartwarming heart

Do yourself a favor and read about Jimmy V and then watch the whole speech. Even if you are not a sports fan, his view on humanity and life is something to learn from.

Oh whilst I'm here (again) what about the video where a guy gives a homeless man a lottery ticket, which is actually just a random ticket, and the store clerk is in on it for $1000:

Or the follow up video where the same homeless man helps other homeless people by setting homeless people up with a hotel room:

Or where again the SAME homeless man finally gets a home:

I really like these kind of videos where people from all over the world come together for some charity work. They motivate and inspire me because I like being cross-cultural. Here are some of the videos I find so inspiring:

1. Windows 10 upgrade video but it's still a great video as it sends a message

2. This video will make you cry (I cried every time I watched it)
