And then, you know, I think every child should be thinking about the big ideas they care about.

And our educational system has kind of, I see this in our colleges.

We don't think about like, what's the singular thing you wanna be part of, you know, that you learn from in history?

Is it justice?

Is it...

ameliorating suffering or what have you.

And so I think we've got to return to these old ways that we used to find meaning.

Well, one of my favorites we tested, which is the awe walk.

The awe walk.

And this is with Virginia Sturm at UC San Francisco.

We tested it with

people over the age of 75, where they're feeling a little more anxious and painful.

And once a week you go out, a lot of people are walking in the United States and you look for awe, you look for natural awe, right?

You go,

You do your walk at sunset or you go to a stand of trees.

You look for moral beauty.

You may go visit, walk past a park, right, where the kids are playing and all the wonders of play.

So all you have to do if you're looking for awe is build it into your daily routines.

Looking for awe.

Awe walks.
