Human unity

Lux Aurumque 

In the words of Chuck Mangione, "It feels so good" to experience this video.

I find watching this to be healing in a way.  In our fractured, isolated, hyper-individualized world, this rearrangement of the splinters in a coalescence of harmonic beauty is a much needed image of unity.  The diversity of nationalities, skin colors, eye shapes, and self-expression (all factors by which we are socially programmed to fractionate our fellow human beings into "us" and "them") being brought together as one via those very same technologies that so often serve to divide us is truly a welcome twist.  I love how so many of the singers do not stand out as the "type" of person you might imagine would be caught on film singing in an acapella choir.  That makes me feel safer in the world.

Thanks to Carlos for pointing this one out to me.
