  Hello.

  Hello,

  faithful

  explorers.
• 0:03
  It's
• 0:03
  me,
• 0:03
  Laura,
• 0:04
  your
• 0:05
  trusty
• 0:05
  adventure
• 0:06
  buddy
• 0:06
  and
• 0:06
  imagination
• 0:07
  navigator.
• 0:09
  Today
• 0:09
  we're
• 0:09
  opening
• 0:10
  a
• 0:10
  really
• 0:11
  big
• 0:12
  question,
• 0:13
  one
• 0:13
  that
• 0:13
  kids
• 0:14
  and
• 0:14
  grown
• 0:15
  ups
• 0:15
  have
• 0:15
  asked
• 0:16
  me.
• 0:17
  But
• 0:18
  before
• 0:18
  I
• 0:18
  tell
• 0:19
  you
• 0:19
  what
• 0:19
  it
• 0:19
  is,
• 0:20
  I
• 0:20
  want
• 0:20
  you
• 0:21
  to
• 0:21
  think,
• 0:23
  would
• 0:23
  you
• 0:23
  still
• 0:24
  choose
• 0:24
  kindness
• 0:26
  even
• 0:27
  if
• 0:27
  no
• 0:27
  one
• 0:28
  was
• 0:28
  watching?
• 0:30
  Would
• 0:30
  you
• 0:30
  still
• 0:30
  tell
• 0:31
  the
• 0:31
  truth
• 0:33
  even
• 0:33
  if
• 0:33
  there
• 0:34
  was
• 0:34
  no
• 0:34
  rules
• 0:35
  saying
• 0:35
  that
• 0:35
  you
• 0:35
  had
• 0:36
  to?
• 0:39
  Because
• 0:40
  the
• 0:40
  question
• 0:40
  that
• 0:41
  people
• 0:41
  ask
• 0:41
  me
• 0:42
  is,
• 0:43
  if
• 0:44
  someone
• 0:44
  doesn't
• 0:44
  believe
• 0:45
  in
• 0:45
  heaven
• 0:46
  or
• 0:46
  God
• 0:47
  or
• 0:47
  religious
• 0:48
  rules,
• 0:49
  what
• 0:49
  helps
• 0:50
  them
• 0:50
  decide
• 0:51
  to
• 0:51
  be
• 0:51
  a
• 0:51
  good
• 0:51
  person?
• 0:53
  Whoa.
• 0:54
  That's
• 0:54
  a
• 0:54
  big
• 0:55
  question,
• 0:56
  right?
• 0:57
  Well,
• 0:57
  stick
• 0:57
  with
• 0:58
  me
• 0:58
  because
• 0:58
  we're
• 0:59
  diving
• 0:59
  into
• 0:59
  this
• 1:00
  question
• 1:00
  and
• 1:00
  discovering
• 1:01
  a
• 1:01
  world
• 1:02
  of
• 1:02
  values
• 1:03
  and
• 1:03
  wonder
• 1:04
  that
• 1:04
  doesn't
• 1:04
  follow
• 1:05
  any
• 1:05
  one
• 1:06
  faith.
• 1:07
  We'll
• 1:07
  explore
• 1:08
  what
• 1:08
  it
• 1:08
  means
• 1:08
  to
• 1:09
  be
• 1:09
  kind
• 1:09
  without
• 1:09
  a
• 1:10
  creed,
• 1:10
  discover
• 1:11
  humanist
• 1:12
  values,
• 1:12
  and
• 1:13
  find
• 1:13
  out
• 1:14
  what
• 1:14
  guides
• 1:14
  people
• 1:15
  who
• 1:15
  don't
• 1:15
  belong
• 1:16
  to
• 1:16
  a
• 1:17
  religion
• 1:17
  at
• 1:17
  all.
• 1:19
  And
• 1:19
  of
• 1:19
  course,
• 1:19
  we'll
• 1:20
  play
• 1:20
  games,
• 1:21
  stretch
• 1:21
  our
• 1:21
  imaginations,
• 1:22
  and
• 1:23
  hear
• 1:23
  a
• 1:23
  story
• 1:23
  that
• 1:24
  just
• 1:24
  might
• 1:24
  surprise
• 1:25
  you.
• 1:26
  So
• 1:26
  don't
• 1:26
  go
• 1:26
  anywhere.
• 1:27
  Grab
• 1:27
  your
• 1:28
  belief
• 1:28
  backpacks
• 1:29
  and
• 1:29
  let's
• 1:29
  begin.
• 1:34
  Learning
• 1:35
  together
• 1:36
  is
• 1:36
  our
• 1:37
  aim.
• 1:38
  Beliefs
• 1:39
  around
• 1:39
  the
• 1:40
  globe
• 1:40
  will
• 1:40
  track,
• 1:42
  filling.
• 1:43
  Up
• 1:43
  our
• 1:43
  belief
• 1:44
  backpack.
• 1:53
  Imagine
• 1:54
  you're
• 1:54
  walking
• 1:54
  through
• 1:55
  a
• 1:55
  giant
• 1:55
  library
• 1:56
  of
• 1:56
  beliefs.
• 1:57
  Each
• 1:58
  shelf
• 1:59
  is
• 1:59
  filled
• 1:59
  with
• 2:00
  books.
• 2:01
  Some
• 2:01
  whisper
• 2:02
  ancient
• 2:03
  prayers.
• 2:04
  Some
• 2:04
  tell
• 2:04
  dazzling
• 2:05
  stories
• 2:06
  of
• 2:06
  gods
• 2:07
  and
• 2:07
  miracles.
• 2:08
  And
• 2:09
  others.
• 2:10
  They
• 2:10
  lean
• 2:11
  in
• 2:11
  close
• 2:11
  and
• 2:11
  ask,
• 2:13
  what
• 2:13
  if
• 2:13
  there
• 2:14
  were
• 2:14
  no
• 2:14
  gods
• 2:15
  at
• 2:15
  all?
• 2:16
  What
• 2:16
  if
• 2:17
  we
• 2:17
  only
• 2:17
  had
• 2:17
  each
• 2:18
  other,
• 2:19
  nature,
• 2:20
  science
• 2:21
  and
• 2:21
  the
• 2:21
  stars
• 2:22
  to
• 2:22
  guide
• 2:22
  us?
• 2:24
  That's
• 2:25
  where
• 2:25
  we
• 2:25
  discover
• 2:26
  humanism,
• 2:27
  a
• 2:27
  way
• 2:27
  of
• 2:27
  thinking
• 2:28
  that
• 2:28
  says
• 2:29
  even
• 2:30
  without
• 2:30
  religion,
• 2:31
  people
• 2:32
  can
• 2:32
  be
• 2:32
  kind,
• 2:33
  curious,
• 2:34
  brave
• 2:35
  and
• 2:36
  fair.
• 2:37
  It
• 2:38
  doesn't
• 2:38
  come
• 2:38
  with
• 2:38
  a
• 2:39
  sacred
• 2:39
  text
• 2:39
  or
• 2:40
  a
• 2:40
  dress
• 2:40
  code.
• 2:41
  It
• 2:42
  doesn't
• 2:42
  tell
• 2:42
  you
• 2:42
  who
• 2:43
  to
• 2:43
  pray
• 2:43
  to
• 2:44
  or
• 2:44
  even
• 2:45
  if
• 2:45
  you
• 2:45
  should
• 2:45
  pray
• 2:46
  at
• 2:46
  all.
• 2:47
  But
• 2:48
  it
• 2:48
  does
• 2:49
  say
• 2:49
  something
• 2:50
  powerful.
• 2:51
  Being
• 2:52
  a
• 2:52
  human
• 2:53
  matters
• 2:54
  and
• 2:54
  how
• 2:55
  we
• 2:55
  treat
• 2:55
  each
• 2:56
  other.
• 2:56
  That's
• 2:57
  everything.
• 2:59
  Let's
• 3:00
  peek
• 3:00
  inside
• 3:01
  some
• 3:01
  of
• 3:01
  the
• 3:01
  books
• 3:02
  from
• 3:02
  the
• 3:02
  humanism
• 3:03
  shelf.
• 3:05
  Our
• 3:05
  first
• 3:05
  book
• 3:06
  is
• 3:06
  called
• 3:07
  Atheism.
• 3:08
  This
• 3:09
  word
• 3:09
  means
• 3:09
  someone
• 3:10
  who
• 3:10
  doesn't
• 3:11
  believe
• 3:11
  in
• 3:11
  any
• 3:12
  gods,
• 3:13
  but
• 3:13
  that
• 3:14
  doesn't
• 3:14
  mean
• 3:14
  they're
• 3:15
  cold
• 3:15
  or
• 3:15
  unkind.
• 3:17
  Atheists
• 3:18
  might
• 3:18
  love
• 3:18
  poetry,
• 3:20
  volunteer
• 3:20
  at
• 3:21
  animal
• 3:21
  shelters,
• 3:22
  go
• 3:23
  hiking,
• 3:24
  stargaze,
• 3:25
  or
• 3:25
  practice
• 3:25
  mindfulness.
• 3:27
  Their
• 3:27
  values
• 3:28
  just
• 3:28
  don't
• 3:29
  come
• 3:29
  from
• 3:29
  a
• 3:29
  belief
• 3:29
  in
• 3:30
  a
• 3:30
  higher
• 3:30
  power.
• 3:32
  Our
• 3:32
  next
• 3:32
  book
• 3:33
  at
• 3:33
  Agnosticism.
• 3:34
  Agnostics
• 3:35
  are
• 3:35
  the
• 3:35
  question
• 3:36
  seekers.
• 3:37
  They
• 3:38
  think,
• 3:39
  I'm
• 3:40
  not
• 3:40
  sure
• 3:40
  if
• 3:40
  there's
• 3:41
  a
• 3:41
  God.
• 3:42
  Maybe
• 3:42
  yes,
• 3:43
  maybe
• 3:44
  no.
• 3:45
  But
• 3:45
  guess
• 3:45
  what?
• 3:46
  They
• 3:46
  still
• 3:47
  believe
• 3:47
  in
• 3:48
  learning,
• 3:49
  wondering,
• 3:50
  helping,
• 3:50
  and
• 3:51
  making
• 3:51
  the
• 3:52
  world
• 3:52
  a
• 3:52
  better
• 3:53
  place
• 3:53
  while
• 3:53
  they
• 3:54
  try
• 3:54
  to
• 3:54
  figure
• 3:54
  things
• 3:55
  out.
• 3:56
  The
• 3:56
  next
• 3:57
  book
• 3:57
  is
• 3:58
  Secular
• 3:58
  Humanism.
• 4:00
  This
• 4:00
  one's
• 4:00
  a
• 4:01
  big
• 4:01
  Idea.
• 4:02
  Kind
• 4:02
  of
• 4:02
  like
• 4:03
  being
• 4:03
  on
• 4:03
  team
• 4:04
  humanity.
• 4:05
  Secular
• 4:06
  humanists
• 4:07
  believe
• 4:07
  that
• 4:07
  people
• 4:08
  can
• 4:08
  work
• 4:08
  together
• 4:09
  to
• 4:09
  decide
• 4:10
  what's
• 4:10
  right
• 4:10
  and
• 4:11
  fair,
• 4:11
  using
• 4:12
  things
• 4:12
  like
• 4:13
  empathy,
• 4:14
  science,
• 4:15
  history
• 4:16
  and
• 4:17
  deep
• 4:17
  thinking.
• 4:19
  They
• 4:19
  say,
• 4:20
  let's
• 4:20
  care
• 4:21
  for
• 4:21
  each
• 4:21
  other
• 4:22
  even
• 4:22
  without
• 4:23
  religion.
• 4:25
  And
• 4:25
  the
• 4:25
  last
• 4:26
  book
• 4:26
  we're
• 4:26
  going
• 4:26
  to
• 4:26
  talk
• 4:26
  about
• 4:27
  is
• 4:27
  Philosophical
• 4:28
  Naturalism.
• 4:29
  That
• 4:30
  sounds
• 4:30
  like
• 4:30
  a
• 4:30
  tongue
• 4:31
  twister,
• 4:31
  right?
• 4:32
  The
• 4:33
  philosophical
• 4:34
  naturalists
• 4:35
  believe
• 4:35
  everything
• 4:36
  in
• 4:36
  the
• 4:36
  universe
• 4:37
  comes
• 4:37
  from
• 4:37
  nature.
• 4:38
  No
• 4:39
  magic,
• 4:40
  no
• 4:40
  miracles,
• 4:41
  no
• 4:41
  invisible
• 4:42
  beings,
• 4:43
  just
• 4:43
  stars,
• 4:44
  atoms,
• 4:44
  animals
• 4:45
  and
• 4:45
  ideas.
• 4:46
  They
• 4:47
  believe
• 4:47
  in
• 4:47
  exploring
• 4:48
  the
• 4:48
  world
• 4:49
  with
• 4:49
  wonder
• 4:50
  and
• 4:50
  learning
• 4:51
  from
• 4:51
  what
• 4:51
  we
• 4:52
  can
• 4:52
  see,
• 4:53
  touch
• 4:53
  and
• 4:54
  study.
• 4:55
  No
• 4:55
  matter
• 4:55
  which
• 4:56
  book
• 4:56
  someone
• 4:57
  reaches
• 4:57
  for,
• 4:58
  humanist
• 4:58
  ideas
• 4:59
  remind
• 5:00
  us
• 5:00
  of
• 5:00
  something
• 5:01
  beautiful.
• 5:02
  You
• 5:02
  don't
• 5:03
  need
• 5:03
  a
• 5:03
  sacred
• 5:04
  rule
• 5:04
  book
• 5:04
  to
• 5:05
  be
• 5:05
  a
• 5:05
  good
• 5:05
  person.
• 5:07
  Kindness,
• 5:08
  curiosity
• 5:09
  and
• 5:09
  courage.
• 5:11
  They
• 5:11
  can
• 5:11
  come
• 5:12
  from
• 5:12
  within.
• 5:16
  Let's
• 5:17
  head
• 5:17
  deeper
• 5:18
  into
• 5:18
  the
• 5:18
  library,
• 5:19
  past
• 5:20
  the
• 5:20
  towering
• 5:21
  shelves,
• 5:22
  around
• 5:22
  the
• 5:23
  spiral
• 5:24
  staircase
• 5:25
  into
• 5:25
  a
• 5:26
  cozy
• 5:26
  little
• 5:27
  nook.
• 5:28
  There's
• 5:28
  a
• 5:28
  reading
• 5:29
  lamp,
• 5:30
  a
• 5:30
  blank
• 5:31
  journal,
• 5:32
  and
• 5:32
  a
• 5:32
  sign
• 5:33
  that
• 5:33
  says,
• 5:34
  write
• 5:35
  your
• 5:35
  own
• 5:35
  chapter.
• 5:37
  That's
• 5:37
  what
• 5:38
  living
• 5:38
  with
• 5:38
  humanist
• 5:39
  values
• 5:40
  is
• 5:40
  like.
• 5:41
  Instead
• 5:42
  of
• 5:42
  reading
• 5:42
  a
• 5:43
  rule
• 5:43
  book
• 5:43
  handed
• 5:44
  down
• 5:45
  from
• 5:45
  long
• 5:45
  ago,
• 5:46
  humanists
• 5:47
  open
• 5:47
  up
• 5:48
  a
• 5:48
  fresh
• 5:48
  page
• 5:49
  and
• 5:49
  ask,
• 5:51
  what
• 5:51
  kind
• 5:52
  of
• 5:52
  story
• 5:52
  do
• 5:52
  I
• 5:53
  want
• 5:53
  my
• 5:53
  life
• 5:54
  to
• 5:54
  tell?
• 5:55
  What
• 5:56
  kind
• 5:56
  of
• 5:56
  character
• 5:57
  do
• 5:57
  I
• 5:57
  want
• 5:58
  to
• 5:58
  be?
• 5:59
  They
• 6:00
  don't
• 6:00
  just
• 6:00
  follow
• 6:01
  someone
• 6:01
  else's
• 6:02
  script,
• 6:03
  they
• 6:03
  create
• 6:04
  it.
• 6:05
  And
• 6:05
  the
• 6:05
  tools
• 6:06
  they
• 6:06
  use.
• 6:07
  Thoughtfulness,
• 6:08
  kindness,
• 6:09
  fairness,
• 6:11
  curiosity.
• 6:13
  They
• 6:13
  build
• 6:13
  a
• 6:13
  life
• 6:14
  of
• 6:14
  meaning
• 6:14
  by
• 6:15
  choosing
• 6:15
  how
• 6:15
  they
• 6:16
  treat
• 6:16
  others
• 6:17
  and
• 6:17
  what
• 6:18
  they
• 6:18
  stand
• 6:18
  for.
• 6:19
  Humanists
• 6:20
  believe
• 6:21
  that
• 6:21
  being
• 6:21
  human
• 6:22
  comes
• 6:22
  with
• 6:22
  responsibility.
• 6:24
  Not
• 6:25
  because
• 6:25
  someone
• 6:26
  is
• 6:26
  watching,
• 6:27
  but
• 6:27
  because
• 6:27
  we're
• 6:28
  all
• 6:28
  writing
• 6:28
  this
• 6:29
  big
• 6:29
  story
• 6:30
  together.
• 6:35
  So
• 6:36
  how
• 6:36
  do
• 6:36
  humanists
• 6:37
  decide
• 6:38
  what's
• 6:38
  right
• 6:38
  and
• 6:39
  wrong?
• 6:41
  Let's
• 6:41
  flip
• 6:42
  through
• 6:42
  some
• 6:42
  of
• 6:42
  the
• 6:43
  most
• 6:43
  important
• 6:44
  pages
• 6:44
  in
• 6:44
  their
• 6:45
  guidebook.
• 6:46
  The
• 6:46
  one
• 6:47
  written
• 6:47
  with
• 6:47
  reason,
• 6:49
  compassion
• 6:50
  and
• 6:50
  imagination.
• 6:52
  Empathy.
• 6:54
  This
• 6:55
  chapter
• 6:55
  is
• 6:55
  all
• 6:56
  about
• 6:56
  feeling
• 6:57
  with
• 6:57
  others.
• 6:59
  Empathy
• 7:00
  means
• 7:00
  noticing
• 7:01
  when
• 7:01
  someone
• 7:02
  else
• 7:02
  is
• 7:02
  hurting
• 7:03
  or
• 7:04
  happy
• 7:05
  and
• 7:05
  asking,
• 7:06
  what
• 7:07
  would
• 7:07
  I
• 7:07
  want
• 7:07
  if
• 7:07
  I
• 7:08
  were
• 7:08
  them?
• 7:09
  It's
• 7:09
  like
• 7:09
  having
• 7:10
  a
• 7:10
  heart
• 7:10
  based
• 7:10
  highlighter
• 7:11
  that
• 7:11
  helps
• 7:12
  you
• 7:12
  spot
• 7:12
  what
• 7:12
  matters
• 7:13
  most.
• 7:14
  Remember
• 7:15
  when
• 7:15
  we
• 7:15
  learned
• 7:16
  about
• 7:16
  Confucius,
• 7:17
  the
• 7:18
  wise
• 7:18
  teacher
• 7:19
  from
• 7:19
  ancient
• 7:19
  China?
• 7:20
  He
• 7:21
  is
• 7:21
  also
• 7:21
  a
• 7:21
  humanist
• 7:22
  himself,
• 7:22
  and
• 7:23
  he
• 7:23
  said
• 7:23
  something
• 7:24
  similar
• 7:24
  over
• 7:25
  2000
• 7:25
  years
• 7:26
  ago.
• 7:27
  Remember
• 7:27
  he
• 7:28
  said,
• 7:28
  do
• 7:29
  not
• 7:29
  do
• 7:29
  to
• 7:30
  others
• 7:30
  what
• 7:31
  you
• 7:31
  would
• 7:31
  not
• 7:31
  want
• 7:32
  done
• 7:32
  to
• 7:32
  you.
• 7:33
  That
• 7:34
  idea,
• 7:34
  sometimes
• 7:35
  called
• 7:35
  the
• 7:35
  Golden
• 7:36
  Rule,
• 7:36
  is
• 7:36
  still
• 7:36
  one
• 7:37
  of
• 7:37
  the
• 7:37
  best
• 7:37
  ways
• 7:37
  to
• 7:38
  treat
• 7:38
  people
• 7:38
  with
• 7:39
  care
• 7:39
  and
• 7:39
  respect,
• 7:40
  no
• 7:40
  matter
• 7:40
  what
• 7:41
  you
• 7:41
  believe.
• 7:42
  The
• 7:42
  next
• 7:43
  thing
• 7:43
  in
• 7:43
  our
• 7:43
  guidebook
• 7:44
  is
• 7:44
  reason.
• 7:45
  Instead
• 7:46
  of
• 7:46
  just
• 7:46
  underlining
• 7:47
  the
• 7:47
  rules,
• 7:48
  humanists
• 7:48
  ask
• 7:49
  questions.
• 7:51
  Why?
• 7:52
  What
• 7:53
  if?
• 7:55
  Will
• 7:55
  this
• 7:56
  help
• 7:57
  or
• 7:57
  harm?
• 7:59
  They
• 7:59
  make
• 8:00
  thoughtful
• 8:00
  choices
• 8:01
  based
• 8:01
  on
• 8:01
  fairness,
• 8:03
  facts
• 8:04
  and
• 8:04
  care.
• 8:06
  Another
• 8:06
  big
• 8:07
  thing
• 8:07
  for
• 8:07
  humanists
• 8:08
  is
• 8:08
  responsibility.
• 8:10
  Even
• 8:11
  without
• 8:11
  belief
• 8:12
  in
• 8:12
  heaven
• 8:12
  or
• 8:12
  Hell,
• 8:13
  Humanists
• 8:13
  believe
• 8:14
  we're
• 8:14
  shaping
• 8:15
  the
• 8:15
  story
• 8:15
  of
• 8:15
  our
• 8:16
  world
• 8:16
  every
• 8:17
  day.
• 8:18
  They
• 8:18
  care
• 8:18
  about
• 8:19
  how
• 8:19
  we
• 8:19
  treat
• 8:19
  people,
• 8:20
  animals,
• 8:21
  nature,
• 8:23
  and
• 8:23
  how
• 8:23
  we
• 8:23
  act
• 8:24
  when
• 8:24
  nobody's
• 8:25
  looking
• 8:25
  over
• 8:25
  our
• 8:26
  shoulder.
• 8:28
  Another
• 8:28
  important
• 8:29
  idea
• 8:29
  is
• 8:30
  truth
• 8:30
  seeking.
• 8:32
  This
• 8:32
  chapter
• 8:33
  is
• 8:33
  full
• 8:33
  of
• 8:33
  question
• 8:34
  marks
• 8:34
  and
• 8:35
  curiosity.
• 8:36
  Humanists
• 8:38
  love
• 8:38
  to
• 8:39
  learn.
• 8:40
  They
• 8:40
  read
• 8:41
  science,
• 8:42
  listen
• 8:42
  to
• 8:42
  others
• 8:43
  and
• 8:43
  say,
• 8:44
  let's
• 8:44
  keep
• 8:44
  exploring.
• 8:46
  It's
• 8:46
  okay
• 8:47
  to
• 8:47
  change
• 8:47
  your
• 8:47
  mind
• 8:48
  when
• 8:48
  you
• 8:48
  learn
• 8:49
  something
• 8:49
  new.
• 8:50
  In
• 8:50
  fact,
• 8:51
  it's
• 8:51
  a
• 8:51
  sign
• 8:52
  of
• 8:52
  a
• 8:52
  great
• 8:53
  thinker.
• 8:55
  The
• 8:55
  last
• 8:55
  idea
• 8:55
  we're
• 8:56
  going
• 8:56
  to
• 8:56
  talk
• 8:56
  about
• 8:56
  is
• 8:57
  dignity.
• 8:57
  And
• 8:58
  this
• 8:58
  one,
• 8:58
  it's
• 8:59
  written
• 8:59
  in
• 8:59
  bold.
• 9:00
  Humanists
• 9:01
  believe
• 9:02
  every
• 9:02
  person
• 9:03
  has
• 9:03
  worth,
• 9:04
  not
• 9:04
  because
• 9:04
  a
• 9:04
  king
• 9:05
  said
• 9:05
  so,
• 9:05
  not
• 9:06
  because
• 9:06
  of
• 9:06
  a
• 9:07
  badge
• 9:07
  or
• 9:07
  a
• 9:07
  rule,
• 9:08
  but
• 9:08
  because
• 9:09
  being
• 9:09
  human
• 9:10
  is
• 9:11
  enough.
• 9:15
  So
• 9:15
  in
• 9:15
  this
• 9:15
  bag,
• 9:16
  big
• 9:16
  beautiful
• 9:17
  library
• 9:17
  of
• 9:17
  beliefs,
• 9:18
  humanism
• 9:19
  is
• 9:19
  a
• 9:20
  shelf
• 9:20
  where
• 9:20
  people
• 9:21
  write
• 9:21
  their
• 9:21
  values
• 9:22
  through
• 9:22
  how
• 9:22
  they
• 9:23
  live.
• 9:24
  Every
• 9:24
  kind
• 9:25
  action,
• 9:26
  every
• 9:27
  thoughtful
• 9:27
  choice.
• 9:28
  It's
• 9:29
  like
• 9:29
  adding
• 9:29
  another
• 9:30
  meaningful
• 9:30
  page
• 9:31
  to
• 9:31
  the
• 9:31
  story
• 9:31
  of
• 9:32
  who
• 9:32
  they
• 9:32
  are.
• 9:37
  Now
• 9:37
  that
• 9:37
  we've
• 9:38
  explored
• 9:38
  the
• 9:38
  values
• 9:39
  written
• 9:39
  into
• 9:40
  a
• 9:40
  humanist
• 9:40
  life,
• 9:42
  lets
• 9:42
  meet
• 9:42
  some
• 9:42
  of
• 9:43
  the
• 9:43
  real
• 9:43
  people
• 9:44
  whose
• 9:44
  chapters
• 9:45
  inspire
• 9:45
  us.
• 9:47
  These
• 9:47
  aren't
• 9:48
  characters
• 9:48
  from
• 9:49
  a
• 9:49
  fairy
• 9:49
  tale
• 9:50
  or
• 9:50
  ancient
• 9:51
  prophets.
• 9:52
  They're
• 9:52
  scientists,
• 9:53
  thinkers
• 9:54
  and
• 9:54
  activists
• 9:55
  who
• 9:55
  used
• 9:56
  humanist
• 9:56
  values
• 9:57
  to
• 9:57
  shape
• 9:57
  the
• 9:58
  world.
• 9:58
  Not
• 9:59
  with
• 9:59
  miracles,
• 10:00
  but
• 10:00
  with
• 10:00
  meaning.
• 10:01
  Let's
• 10:02
  open
• 10:02
  up
• 10:02
  their
• 10:03
  stories.
• 10:06
  First
• 10:06
  we
• 10:07
  have
• 10:07
  Carl
• 10:07
  Sagan.
• 10:08
  Carl
• 10:09
  loved
• 10:09
  the
• 10:10
  stars
• 10:10
  and
• 10:10
  he
• 10:10
  helped
• 10:11
  the
• 10:11
  rest
• 10:11
  of
• 10:12
  us
• 10:12
  love
• 10:12
  them
• 10:12
  too.
• 10:13
  Through
• 10:14
  books
• 10:14
  like
• 10:15
  Cosmos
• 10:15
  and
• 10:15
  his
• 10:16
  popular
• 10:16
  TV
• 10:17
  series,
• 10:18
  Carl
• 10:18
  Sagan
• 10:19
  shared
• 10:19
  the
• 10:19
  magic
• 10:20
  of
• 10:20
  science
• 10:21
  in
• 10:21
  a
• 10:21
  way
• 10:21
  that
• 10:22
  made
• 10:22
  science
• 10:22
  feel
• 10:23
  close,
• 10:24
  personal
• 10:25
  and
• 10:25
  awe
• 10:26
  inspiring.
• 10:27
  He
• 10:28
  taught
• 10:28
  that
• 10:28
  we
• 10:28
  were
• 10:29
  made
• 10:29
  of
• 10:29
  star
• 10:29
  stuff.
• 10:30
  The
• 10:30
  very
• 10:31
  atoms
• 10:32
  that
• 10:32
  sparkle
• 10:32
  in
• 10:33
  galaxies
• 10:33
  and
• 10:34
  suns.
• 10:35
  The
• 10:35
  nitrogen
• 10:36
  in
• 10:36
  our
• 10:36
  DNA,
• 10:37
  the
• 10:37
  calcium
• 10:38
  in
• 10:38
  our
• 10:38
  teeth,
• 10:39
  the
• 10:39
  iron
• 10:40
  in
• 10:40
  our
• 10:40
  blood,
• 10:41
  the
• 10:41
  carbon
• 10:42
  in
• 10:42
  our
• 10:42
  apple
• 10:43
  pies
• 10:44
  were
• 10:44
  made
• 10:44
  in
• 10:45
  the
• 10:45
  interiors
• 10:46
  of
• 10:46
  collapsing
• 10:47
  stars.
• 10:48
  We
• 10:49
  are
• 10:49
  made
• 10:49
  of
• 10:50
  star
• 10:50
  stuff.
• 10:52
  Not
• 10:52
  a
• 10:52
  belief
• 10:53
  based
• 10:53
  on
• 10:54
  sacred
• 10:54
  texts,
• 10:55
  but
• 10:55
  a
• 10:56
  discovery
• 10:56
  based
• 10:56
  on
• 10:57
  science.
• 10:58
  Carl
• 10:59
  believed
• 10:59
  that
• 10:59
  the
• 10:59
  more
• 11:00
  we
• 11:00
  understood
• 11:00
  the
• 11:01
  universe,
• 11:02
  the
• 11:02
  more
• 11:02
  wonder,
• 11:03
  care
• 11:03
  and
• 11:04
  responsibility
• 11:05
  we
• 11:05
  would
• 11:06
  feel
• 11:06
  for
• 11:06
  each
• 11:07
  other.
• 11:08
  He
• 11:08
  warned
• 11:08
  against
• 11:09
  falsehoods
• 11:10
  and
• 11:10
  taught
• 11:10
  people
• 11:11
  how
• 11:11
  to
• 11:12
  think
• 11:12
  clearly,
• 11:13
  not
• 11:14
  just
• 11:14
  what
• 11:14
  to
• 11:15
  think.
• 11:16
  His
• 11:16
  life
• 11:17
  is
• 11:17
  a
• 11:17
  perfect
• 11:17
  blend
• 11:18
  of
• 11:18
  reason,
• 11:19
  curiosity
• 11:20
  and
• 11:20
  truth
• 11:21
  seeking,
• 11:22
  all
• 11:22
  lit
• 11:23
  up
• 11:23
  like
• 11:23
  a
• 11:23
  constellation.
• 11:28
  Another
• 11:28
  important
• 11:29
  person
• 11:29
  person
• 11:30
  is
• 11:30
  Jane
• 11:31
  Goodall.
• 11:32
  Jane
• 11:33
  is
• 11:33
  a
• 11:33
  scientist
• 11:34
  who
• 11:34
  didn't
• 11:34
  wait
• 11:35
  for

  to
• 11:36
  care.
• 11:37
  She
• 11:37
  stepped
• 11:38
  into
• 11:38
  the
• 11:38
  wild,
• 11:39
  listened
• 11:40
  to
• 11:40
  the
• 11:40
  forest
• 11:41
  and
• 11:41
  made
• 11:41
  amazing
• 11:42
  discoveries
• 11:43
  about
• 11:43
  chimpanzees,
• 11:45
  showing
• 11:46
  the
• 11:46
  world
• 11:46
  how
• 11:47
  much
• 11:47
  we
• 11:47
  have
• 11:48
  in
• 11:48
  common
• 11:48
  with
• 11:48
  animals.
• 11:50
  Jane
• 11:51
  used
• 11:51
  science
• 11:52
  to
• 11:52
  open
• 11:52
  hearts,
• 11:53
  helping
• 11:54
  people
• 11:55
  see
• 11:55
  that
• 11:55
  protecting
• 11:56
  nature
• 11:57
  is
• 11:57
  really
• 11:58
  about
• 11:58
  protecting
• 11:59
  our
• 11:59
  shared
• 12:00
  future.
• 12:01
  You
• 12:01
  cannot
• 12:01
  get
• 12:02
  through
• 12:02
  a
• 12:02
  single
• 12:02
  day
• 12:03
  without
• 12:03
  having
• 12:03
  an
• 12:03
  impact
• 12:04
  on
• 12:04
  the
• 12:04
  world
• 12:04
  around
• 12:05
  you.
• 12:06
  What
• 12:06
  you
• 12:06
  do
• 12:07
  makes
• 12:07
  a
• 12:07
  difference,
• 12:08
  and
• 12:08
  you
• 12:08
  have
• 12:08
  to
• 12:08
  decide
• 12:09
  what
• 12:09
  kind
• 12:09
  of
• 12:09
  a
• 12:10
  difference
• 12:10
  you
• 12:10
  want
• 12:10
  to
• 12:10
  make.
• 12:11
  Jane's
• 12:12
  gentle
• 12:12
  bravery
• 12:13
  is
• 12:13
  responsibility
• 12:14
  in
• 12:14
  action.
• 12:16
  She
• 12:16
  reminds
• 12:17
  us
• 12:17
  that
• 12:17
  you
• 12:17
  don't
• 12:18
  need
• 12:18
  to
• 12:18
  believe
• 12:18
  in
• 12:19
  heaven
• 12:19
  to
• 12:20
  care
• 12:20
  about
• 12:20
  the
• 12:20
  future.
• 12:22
  You
• 12:22
  just
• 12:22
  have
• 12:22
  to
• 12:22
  care
• 12:23
  about
• 12:23
  people,
• 12:24
  animals
• 12:25
  and
• 12:25
  the
• 12:25
  planet
• 12:26
  Right
• 12:26
  now.
• 12:30
  The
• 12:31
  last
• 12:31
  chapter
• 12:32
  is
• 12:32
  about
• 12:32
  Hypatia.
• 12:34
  Let's
• 12:34
  travel
• 12:34
  way
• 12:35
  back
• 12:35
  in
• 12:35
  time,
• 12:36
  all
• 12:36
  the
• 12:36
  way
• 12:37
  to
• 12:37
  Ancient
• 12:37
  Alexandria,
• 12:38
  over
• 12:39
  1,600
• 12:41
  years
• 12:41
  ago.
• 12:42
  Hypatia
• 12:43
  was
• 12:43
  a
• 12:43
  brilliant
• 12:44
  thinker
• 12:45
  at
• 12:45
  a
• 12:45
  time
• 12:45
  when
• 12:46
  most
• 12:46
  women
• 12:47
  weren't
• 12:47
  allowed
• 12:48
  to
• 12:48
  be
• 12:49
  scholars.
• 12:50
  But
• 12:50
  that
• 12:50
  didn't
• 12:51
  stop
• 12:51
  her.
• 12:52
  She
• 12:52
  taught
• 12:53
  math,
• 12:54
  logic
• 12:54
  and
• 12:55
  philosophy
• 12:56
  to
• 12:56
  anyone
• 12:57
  who
• 12:58
  wanted
• 12:58
  to
• 12:58
  learn.
• 12:59
  Reserve
• 12:59
  your
• 12:59
  right
• 12:59
  to
• 13:00
  think
• 13:01
  for
• 13:01
  even
• 13:02
  to
• 13:02
  think
• 13:02
  wrongly
• 13:02
  is
• 13:03
  better
• 13:03
  than
• 13:03
  not
• 13:03
  to
• 13:03
  think
• 13:04
  at
• 13:04
  all.
• 13:05
  She
• 13:05
  didn't
• 13:05
  tell
• 13:06
  people
• 13:06
  what
• 13:06
  to
• 13:07
  believe.
• 13:07
  She
• 13:08
  asked
• 13:08
  them
• 13:09
  to
• 13:10
  think
• 13:10
  deeply,
• 13:12
  ask
• 13:12
  hard
• 13:13
  questions,
• 13:14
  and
• 13:14
  figure
• 13:15
  things
• 13:15
  out
• 13:16
  together.
• 13:17
  Hypatia's
• 13:18
  chapter
• 13:19
  shows
• 13:19
  us
• 13:19
  that
• 13:20
  asking
• 13:20
  questions
• 13:21
  isn't
• 13:22
  rebellious,
• 13:23
  it's
• 13:24
  wise.
• 13:25
  And
• 13:25
  it's
• 13:25
  a
• 13:25
  big
• 13:26
  part
• 13:26
  of
• 13:26
  humanist
• 13:27
  values.
• 13:28
  So
• 13:28
  if
• 13:29
  anyone
• 13:29
  ever
• 13:29
  tells
• 13:30
  you,
• 13:30
  you
• 13:31
  can't
• 13:31
  be
• 13:31
  good
• 13:31
  without
• 13:32
  religion,
• 13:33
  humanists
• 13:34
  would
• 13:35
  gently
• 13:35
  say,
• 13:36
  we're
• 13:36
  kind
• 13:37
  because
• 13:37
  kindness
• 13:38
  helps
• 13:38
  people.
• 13:39
  We're
• 13:39
  brave
• 13:40
  because
• 13:40
  our
• 13:41
  choices
• 13:42
  do
• 13:42
  make
• 13:42
  a
• 13:42
  difference.
• 13:43
  We
• 13:43
  seek
• 13:43
  understanding
• 13:44
  because
• 13:44
  knowledge
• 13:45
  guides
• 13:45
  our
• 13:45
  choices.
• 13:46
  We
• 13:47
  tell
• 13:47
  the
• 13:47
  truth
• 13:48
  because
• 13:49
  truth
• 13:49
  matters.
• 13:50
  And
• 13:50
  that's
• 13:51
  a
• 13:51
  story
• 13:51
  worth
• 13:52
  writing.
• 13:56
  Let's
• 13:57
  take
• 13:57
  a
• 13:57
  moment
• 13:58
  to
• 13:58
  to
• 13:58
  go
• 13:58
  inward
• 13:59
  into
• 14:00
  the
• 14:00
  pages
• 14:00
  of
• 14:01
  your
• 14:02
  story.
• 14:03
  If
• 14:03
  you're
• 14:04
  somewhere
• 14:04
  safe,
• 14:05
  go
• 14:05
  ahead
• 14:05
  and
• 14:06
  close
• 14:06
  your
• 14:06
  eyes.
• 14:07
  Let
• 14:08
  your
• 14:08
  hands
• 14:09
  rest
• 14:09
  quietly.
• 14:11
  Take
• 14:11
  a
• 14:11
  deep
• 14:12
  breath
• 14:12
  in
• 14:14
  and
• 14:14
  let
• 14:14
  it
• 14:15
  all
• 14:15
  the
• 14:15
  way
• 14:15
  out
• 14:17
  again.
• 14:18
  In
• 14:20
  and
• 14:21
  out.
• 14:23
  Now
• 14:24
  imagine
• 14:25
  you're
• 14:25
  walking
• 14:26
  through
• 14:26
  a
• 14:27
  forest.
• 14:29
  Tall
• 14:29
  trees
• 14:30
  arching
• 14:31
  above
• 14:31
  you.
• 14:33
  The
• 14:33
  ground
• 14:33
  is
• 14:34
  soft
• 14:35
  beneath
• 14:35
  your
• 14:36
  feet.
• 14:37
  The
• 14:38
  air
• 14:38
  smells
• 14:39
  like
• 14:39
  pine
• 14:39
  needles.
• 14:41
  Everything
• 14:41
  is
• 14:42
  still
• 14:43
  but
• 14:43
  alive.
• 14:45
  In
• 14:46
  your
• 14:46
  hand
• 14:46
  is
• 14:47
  something
• 14:47
  special.
• 14:49
  A
• 14:49
  compass.
• 14:51
  But
• 14:52
  not
• 14:52
  just
• 14:53
  any
• 14:53
  compass.
• 14:55
  This
• 14:55
  one
• 14:55
  doesn't
• 14:56
  point
• 14:56
  north.
• 14:58
  It
• 14:58
  points
• 14:59
  toward
• 14:59
  what
• 15:00
  you
• 15:01
  believe
• 15:02
  is
• 15:02
  right.
• 15:04
  You
• 15:04
  walk
• 15:05
  slowly.
• 15:07
  The
• 15:07
  compass
• 15:08
  starts
• 15:08
  to
• 15:08
  spin.
• 15:10
  You
• 15:11
  see
• 15:11
  words
• 15:11
  along
• 15:12
  the
• 15:12
  edge
• 15:12
  of
• 15:13
  the
• 15:13
  compass.
• 15:14
  Kindness.
• 15:16
  Justice.
• 15:18
  Courage.
• 15:21
  The
• 15:21
  arrow
• 15:21
  on
• 15:22
  your
• 15:22
  compass
• 15:22
  starts
• 15:23
  to
• 15:23
  spin
• 15:24
  again
• 15:24
  and
• 15:25
  lands
• 15:25
  on
• 15:26
  compassion.
• 15:28
  You
• 15:28
  pause.
• 15:30
  Then
• 15:30
  you
• 15:30
  hear
• 15:31
  something.
• 15:32
  A
• 15:33
  soft
• 15:33
  sniffle.
• 15:35
  You
• 15:36
  follow
• 15:36
  the
• 15:36
  sound
• 15:37
  and
• 15:37
  find
• 15:37
  a
• 15:37
  kid
• 15:38
  sitting
• 15:38
  alone
• 15:38
  beneath
• 15:39
  a
• 15:39
  tree.
• 15:40
  They're
• 15:41
  hugging
• 15:41
  their
• 15:41
  knees.
• 15:42
  You
• 15:43
  glance
• 15:43
  down
• 15:44
  and
• 15:44
  your
• 15:44
  compass
• 15:45
  pulses
• 15:46
  gently
• 15:46
  in
• 15:46
  your
• 15:47
  hand
• 15:48
  again,
• 15:48
  showing
• 15:48
  you
• 15:49
  the
• 15:49
  word
• 15:50
  compassion.
• 15:52
  You
• 15:52
  don't
• 15:53
  rush
• 15:53
  in
• 15:53
  with
• 15:53
  advice.
• 15:54
  You
• 15:55
  sit
• 15:55
  beside
• 15:56
  them.
• 15:57
  Quiet,
• 15:59
  kind,
• 16:00
  present.
• 16:02
  You
• 16:02
  listen.
• 16:03
  And
• 16:04
  sometimes
• 16:05
  just
• 16:06
  listening
• 16:07
  is
• 16:07
  the
• 16:07
  nicest
• 16:08
  thing
• 16:09
  we
• 16:09
  can
• 16:09
  do.
• 16:11
  Your
• 16:12
  compass
• 16:12
  glows
• 16:13
  softly
• 16:14
  again.
• 16:15
  Now
• 16:15
  it
• 16:15
  points
• 16:16
  to
• 16:16
  curiosity.
• 16:19
  You
• 16:19
  walk
• 16:20
  further
• 16:20
  and
• 16:20
  find
• 16:21
  someone
• 16:21
  telling
• 16:22
  a
• 16:22
  story.
• 16:23
  Their
• 16:23
  words
• 16:24
  twist
• 16:25
  and
• 16:25
  sparkle
• 16:26
  in
• 16:26
  the
• 16:26
  air.
• 16:27
  You
• 16:28
  ask
• 16:28
  A
• 16:28
  question,
• 16:30
  then
• 16:30
  another.
• 16:31
  And
• 16:32
  the
• 16:32
  more
• 16:32
  you
• 16:33
  listen,
• 16:34
  the
• 16:34
  more
• 16:34
  your
• 16:34
  friendship
• 16:35
  grows.
• 16:37
  You
• 16:37
  turn
• 16:37
  another
• 16:38
  bend,
• 16:39
  and
• 16:39
  the
• 16:39
  compass
• 16:40
  bends
• 16:40
  toward
• 16:42
  bravery.
• 16:44
  You
• 16:44
  enter
• 16:45
  a
• 16:45
  space
• 16:45
  where
• 16:45
  people
• 16:46
  are
• 16:46
  speaking
• 16:46
  up
• 16:47
  about
• 16:47
  something
• 16:48
  unfair.
• 16:49
  You
• 16:50
  feel
• 16:50
  nervous,
• 16:52
  your
• 16:52
  heart
• 16:52
  pounds.
• 16:54
  But
• 16:54
  your
• 16:54
  compass,
• 16:56
  it
• 16:56
  beats
• 16:57
  with
• 16:57
  you,
• 16:58
  steady
• 16:59
  and
• 17:00
  strong.
• 17:01
  Still
• 17:02
  showing
• 17:02
  that
• 17:03
  word
• 17:04
  bravery.
• 17:06
  You
• 17:06
  take
• 17:06
  a
• 17:07
  deep
• 17:07
  breath
• 17:09
  and
• 17:09
  you
• 17:09
  speak.
• 17:11
  Even
• 17:12
  though
• 17:12
  your
• 17:13
  voice
• 17:13
  trembles.
• 17:14
  Your
• 17:14
  words
• 17:15
  matter.
• 17:17
  Then
• 17:18
  comes
• 17:18
  a
• 17:18
  new
• 17:18
  direction.
• 17:20
  Joy.
• 17:22
  You
• 17:22
  stumble
• 17:22
  upon
• 17:23
  someone
• 17:23
  dancing
• 17:24
  wildly
• 17:25
  beneath
• 17:26
  a
• 17:26
  sunbeam.
• 17:27
  You
• 17:28
  don't
• 17:28
  know
• 17:28
  the
• 17:28
  moves,
• 17:29
  but
• 17:30
  you
• 17:30
  laugh
• 17:30
  and
• 17:31
  join
• 17:31
  in.
• 17:32
  Because
• 17:32
  joy
• 17:33
  matters
• 17:33
  too.
• 17:36
  Everywhere
• 17:36
  you
• 17:36
  go,
• 17:37
  your
• 17:37
  compass
• 17:38
  keeps
• 17:38
  guiding.
• 17:39
  You
• 17:40
  take
• 17:41
  one
• 17:41
  more
• 17:41
  deep
• 17:42
  breath
• 17:42
  in.
• 17:44
  Hold
• 17:44
  it.
• 17:45
  Let
• 17:46
  it
• 17:46
  out
• 17:46
  slowly.
• 17:48
  Now,
• 17:49
  when
• 17:49
  you're
• 17:49
  ready,
• 17:50
  open
• 17:50
  your
• 17:51
  eyes.
• 17:52
  That
• 17:53
  compass.
• 17:54
  It's
• 17:54
  still
• 17:54
  with
• 17:55
  you
• 17:56
  always,
• 17:57
  even
• 17:58
  when
• 17:58
  you
• 17:59
  forget
• 17:59
  to
• 17:59
  check
• 18:00
  it.
• 18:01
  It's
• 18:01
  your
• 18:01
  inner
• 18:02
  guide,
• 18:02
  and
• 18:03
  it
• 18:03
  knows
• 18:04
  the
• 18:04
  way.
• 18:08
  Let's
• 18:09
  take
• 18:09
  a
• 18:09
  walk
• 18:09
  across
• 18:10
  our
• 18:10
  friendship
• 18:10
  bridge,
• 18:11
  the
• 18:12
  one
• 18:12
  that
• 18:12
  helps
• 18:13
  us
• 18:13
  find
• 18:13
  common
• 18:14
  ground
• 18:15
  even
• 18:15
  when
• 18:16
  our
• 18:16
  beliefs
• 18:17
  look
• 18:17
  different
• 18:18
  on
• 18:18
  the
• 18:18
  outside.
• 18:20
  Step
• 18:20
  by
• 18:21
  step,
• 18:21
  we
• 18:22
  discover
• 18:22
  something
• 18:23
  beautiful.
• 18:25
  A
• 18:25
  humanist
• 18:26
  might
• 18:26
  say
• 18:28
  life
• 18:28
  is
• 18:28
  precious
• 18:29
  because
• 18:29
  it's
• 18:30
  short
• 18:30
  and.
• 18:31
  And
• 18:31
  we
• 18:31
  only
• 18:31
  get
• 18:31
  one.
• 18:32
  A
• 18:32
  Buddhist
• 18:33
  might
• 18:33
  say
• 18:34
  life
• 18:34
  is
• 18:34
  precious.
• 18:34
  Because
• 18:35
  we
• 18:35
  should
• 18:35
  ease
• 18:35
  suffering
• 18:36
  for
• 18:36
  all
• 18:36
  living
• 18:37
  beings.
• 18:37
  A
• 18:38
  Baha'
• 18:38
  I
• 18:38
  friend
• 18:39
  might
• 18:39
  say
• 18:40
  life
• 18:40
  is
• 18:41
  a
• 18:41
  chance
• 18:41
  to
• 18:42
  grow
• 18:42
  the
• 18:42
  soul
• 18:43
  through
• 18:43
  love
• 18:44
  and
• 18:44
  service.
• 18:45
  Different
• 18:45
  beliefs,
• 18:46
  but
• 18:46
  the
• 18:47
  same
• 18:48
  deep
• 18:48
  respect
• 18:49
  for
• 18:49
  the
• 18:49
  gift
• 18:50
  of
• 18:50
  life.
• 18:52
  Next,
• 18:52
  we
• 18:52
  see
• 18:53
  another
• 18:53
  scene.
• 18:54
  A
• 18:54
  secular
• 18:55
  family
• 18:56
  is
• 18:56
  lighting
• 18:56
  a
• 18:56
  candle
• 18:57
  at
• 18:57
  dinner
• 18:57
  to
• 18:58
  talk
• 18:58
  about
• 18:59
  justice
• 18:59
  and
• 18:59
  fairness.
• 19:01
  In
• 19:01
  another
• 19:02
  house,
• 19:02
  a
• 19:03
  Jewish
• 19:03
  family
• 19:04
  is
• 19:04
  lighting
• 19:05
  Shabbat
• 19:05
  candles
• 19:06
  to
• 19:06
  welcome
• 19:07
  peace
• 19:07
  and
• 19:07
  rest.
• 19:09
  And
• 19:09
  in
• 19:09
  a
• 19:10
  different
• 19:10
  neighborhood,
• 19:11
  a
• 19:11
  Hindu
• 19:12
  family
• 19:12
  might
• 19:13
  light
• 19:13
  Daiyas
• 19:14
  during
• 19:14
  Diwali
• 19:15
  to
• 19:15
  celebrate
• 19:16
  light
• 19:16
  over
• 19:17
  darkness.
• 19:19
  Different
• 19:19
  traditions,
• 19:21
  same
• 19:22
  spark
• 19:22
  of
• 19:23
  reflection
• 19:24
  and
• 19:24
  togetherness.
• 19:27
  Another
• 19:27
  example
• 19:28
  is
• 19:28
  a
• 19:28
  Muslim
• 19:29
  child
• 19:29
  might
• 19:29
  fast
• 19:30
  during
• 19:30
  Ramadan
• 19:31
  to
• 19:31
  practice
• 19:32
  patience
• 19:32
  and
• 19:33
  grow
• 19:33
  empathy.
• 19:35
  A
• 19:35
  humanist
• 19:36
  child
• 19:36
  might
• 19:36
  take
• 19:37
  on
• 19:37
  our
• 19:37
  kindness
• 19:38
  challenge,
• 19:38
  doing
• 19:39
  something
• 19:39
  thoughtful
• 19:40
  every
• 19:40
  day
• 19:41
  for
• 19:41
  seven
• 19:41
  days.
• 19:42
  Two
• 19:43
  different
• 19:43
  practices,
• 19:44
  but
• 19:44
  the
• 19:44
  same
• 19:45
  values
• 19:46
  shining
• 19:46
  through.
• 19:48
  Whether
• 19:48
  someone
• 19:49
  believes
• 19:49
  in
• 19:50
  God,
• 19:50
  many
• 19:51
  gods,
• 19:51
  a
• 19:52
  great
• 19:52
  spirit,
• 19:53
  or
• 19:53
  none
• 19:54
  of
• 19:54
  those
• 19:54
  at
• 19:54
  all.
• 19:55
  People
• 19:55
  all
• 19:56
  over
• 19:56
  the
• 19:56
  world
• 19:57
  ask
• 19:57
  the
• 19:58
  same
• 19:58
  big
• 19:59
  questions.
• 20:01
  Where
• 20:01
  did
• 20:01
  we
• 20:01
  come
• 20:02
  from?
• 20:03
  How
• 20:03
  can
• 20:03
  we
• 20:04
  live
• 20:04
  with
• 20:04
  kindness?
• 20:06
  And
• 20:06
  what
• 20:06
  really
• 20:07
  matters?
• 20:11
  So
• 20:11
  now
• 20:11
  a
• 20:11
  question
• 20:12
  just
• 20:12
  for
• 20:12
  you.
• 20:13
  Can
• 20:14
  you
• 20:14
  think
• 20:14
  of
• 20:15
  a
• 20:15
  value
• 20:15
  your
• 20:16
  family
• 20:16
  shares?
• 20:18
  How
• 20:18
  do
• 20:18
  you
• 20:18
  show
• 20:19
  that
• 20:19
  value
• 20:19
  in
• 20:20
  your
• 20:20
  everyday
• 20:21
  lives?
• 20:22
  Maybe
• 20:22
  it's
• 20:23
  fairness
• 20:23
  or
• 20:24
  honesty
• 20:25
  or
• 20:25
  caring
• 20:26
  for
• 20:26
  the
• 20:26
  planet
• 20:27
  or
• 20:27
  helping
• 20:28
  those
• 20:28
  who
• 20:28
  need
• 20:28
  it.
• 20:29
  We
• 20:29
  don't
• 20:30
  need
• 20:30
  the
• 20:30
  same
• 20:30
  stories
• 20:31
  to
• 20:31
  share
• 20:31
  the
• 20:32
  same
• 20:32
  values.
• 20:33
  And
• 20:33
  sometimes
• 20:34
  when
• 20:35
  we
• 20:35
  ask
• 20:35
  why
• 20:36
  someone
• 20:37
  cares
• 20:37
  about
• 20:37
  something,
• 20:39
  we
• 20:39
  end
• 20:39
  up
• 20:39
  caring
• 20:40
  about
• 20:40
  them
• 20:41
  a
• 20:41
  little
• 20:41
  more,
• 20:42
  too.
• 20:43
  So
• 20:43
  let's
• 20:44
  keep
• 20:44
  building
• 20:44
  this
• 20:45
  bridge
• 20:45
  with
• 20:46
  every
• 20:46
  question,
• 20:47
  every
• 20:48
  kind
• 20:48
  word,
• 20:49
  and
• 20:49
  every
• 20:50
  curious
• 20:51
  conversation.
• 20:56
  All
• 20:56
  right?
• 20:56
  Adventurers,
• 20:57
  it's
• 20:58
  time
• 20:58
  for
• 20:58
  a
• 20:58
  compass
• 20:59
  quest.
• 21:00
  You'll
• 21:00
  need
• 21:01
  three
• 21:02
  things.
• 21:03
  Your
• 21:03
  best
• 21:04
  listening,
• 21:04
  ears,
• 21:05
  your
• 21:06
  imagination,
• 21:07
  and
• 21:08
  a
• 21:08
  little
• 21:08
  bit
• 21:08
  of
• 21:08
  movement.
• 21:09
  Or
• 21:09
  perhaps
• 21:10
  some
• 21:10
  finger
• 21:10
  pointing
• 21:11
  if
• 21:11
  you're
• 21:11
  in
• 21:11
  a
• 21:11
  car.
• 21:12
  Here's
• 21:13
  how
• 21:13
  it
• 21:13
  works.
• 21:13
  I'll
• 21:14
  describe
• 21:14
  a
• 21:14
  tricky
• 21:15
  situation,
• 21:16
  something
• 21:16
  that
• 21:16
  needs
• 21:16
  a
• 21:17
  choice.
• 21:17
  You
• 21:18
  decide
• 21:18
  where
• 21:18
  your
• 21:18
  inner
• 21:19
  compass
• 21:19
  would
• 21:20
  point.
• 21:20
  Each
• 21:21
  direction
• 21:22
  stands
• 21:22
  for
• 21:22
  a
• 21:22
  different
• 21:23
  action.
• 21:24
  So
• 21:24
  decide
• 21:25
  where
• 21:25
  north,
• 21:26
  south,
• 21:26
  east
• 21:26
  or
• 21:27
  west
• 21:27
  are
• 21:27
  going
• 21:27
  to
• 21:27
  be
• 21:28
  for
• 21:28
  you
• 21:28
  right
• 21:28
  now.
• 21:29
  It's
• 21:29
  okay
• 21:30
  if
• 21:30
  they're
• 21:30
  not
• 21:31
  really
• 21:31
  in
• 21:31
  those
• 21:32
  directions.
• 21:33
  You
• 21:33
  can
• 21:34
  move
• 21:34
  in
• 21:34
  that
• 21:34
  direction
• 21:35
  with
• 21:35
  your
• 21:35
  whole
• 21:35
  body
• 21:36
  or
• 21:36
  just
• 21:36
  point
• 21:36
  like
• 21:37
  a
• 21:37
  human
• 21:37
  compass
• 21:38
  needle.
• 21:39
  Here's
• 21:39
  scenario
• 21:40
  number
• 21:40
  one.
• 21:41
  Recess
• 21:42
  dilemma.
• 21:43
  You
• 21:44
  see
• 21:44
  someone
• 21:44
  being
• 21:45
  left
• 21:45
  out
• 21:45
  of
• 21:46
  a
• 21:46
  game
• 21:46
  on
• 21:46
  the
• 21:46
  playground.
• 21:48
  What
• 21:48
  does
• 21:48
  your
• 21:48
  compass
• 21:49
  say?
• 21:50
  North.
• 21:51
  Be
• 21:51
  brave
• 21:52
  and
• 21:52
  invite
• 21:52
  them
• 21:52
  to
• 21:53
  join.
• 21:54
  South.
• 21:55
  Pretend
• 21:56
  you
• 21:56
  didn't
• 21:56
  even
• 21:57
  see
• 21:57
  them.
• 21:58
  East.
• 21:59
  Find
• 21:59
  a
• 21:59
  teacher
• 21:59
  and
• 22:00
  ask
• 22:00
  them
• 22:00
  for
• 22:00
  help.
• 22:02
  West.
• 22:03
  You
• 22:03
  just
• 22:04
  join
• 22:04
  the
• 22:04
  game,
• 22:05
  pick
• 22:05
  your
• 22:05
  direction
• 22:06
  and
• 22:07
  move.
• 22:07
  Or
• 22:08
  point,
• 22:13
  if
• 22:13
  you
• 22:13
  chose,
• 22:13
  north
• 22:14
  or
• 22:14
  east.
• 22:14
  Amazing.
• 22:16
  That's
• 22:16
  kindness
• 22:17
  and
• 22:17
  fairness
• 22:18
  leading
• 22:18
  the
• 22:19
  way.
• 22:21
  What
• 22:21
  about
• 22:21
  scenario
• 22:22
  number
• 22:22
  two?
• 22:23
  The
• 22:23
  secret
• 22:24
  slip
• 22:24
  up.
• 22:26
  Oops.
• 22:27
  You
• 22:28
  broke
• 22:28
  a
• 22:28
  rule,
• 22:29
  but
• 22:30
  nobody
• 22:30
  saw.
• 22:32
  What
• 22:32
  do
• 22:33
  you
• 22:33
  do
• 22:33
  now?
• 22:35
  North.
• 22:36
  Blame
• 22:36
  someone
• 22:37
  else.
• 22:38
  South.
• 22:40
  Stay
• 22:40
  quiet.
• 22:41
  Cross
• 22:41
  your
• 22:42
  fingers.
• 22:42
  No
• 22:42
  one
• 22:43
  notices.
• 22:44
  East.
• 22:46
  Tell
• 22:46
  the
• 22:46
  truth,
• 22:48
  even
• 22:48
  if
• 22:48
  it's
• 22:49
  tough.
• 22:50
  West.
• 22:51
  Go
• 22:51
  in
• 22:51
  your
• 22:51
  room
• 22:52
  and
• 22:52
  hide.
• 22:53
  Choose
• 22:53
  your
• 22:53
  direction.
• 22:55
  Ready?
• 22:56
  Go.
• 23:00
  If
• 23:01
  you
• 23:01
  picked
• 23:01
  east,
• 23:02
  tell
• 23:03
  the
• 23:03
  truth,
• 23:03
  even
• 23:03
  if
• 23:04
  it's
• 23:04
  tough.
• 23:05
  That's
• 23:05
  integrity
• 23:06
  in
• 23:06
  action.
• 23:07
  Your
• 23:07
  compass
• 23:08
  is
• 23:08
  steady
• 23:09
  and
• 23:09
  strong.
• 23:11
  All
• 23:11
  right,
• 23:12
  here's
• 23:12
  our
• 23:12
  last
• 23:12
  scenario.
• 23:13
  Scenario
• 23:14
  three
• 23:15
  different
• 23:15
  opinions.
• 23:17
  A
• 23:17
  friend
• 23:17
  shares
• 23:18
  a
• 23:18
  very
• 23:18
  different
• 23:19
  opinion
• 23:19
  than
• 23:19
  yours
• 23:21
  and
• 23:21
  it
• 23:21
  makes
• 23:21
  you
• 23:22
  uncomfortable.
• 23:24
  Which
• 23:24
  way
• 23:24
  do
• 23:24
  you
• 23:25
  turn?
• 23:26
  North.
• 23:27
  Tell
• 23:27
  them
• 23:27
  why
• 23:27
  what
• 23:28
  you
• 23:28
  believe
• 23:28
  is
• 23:28
  better.
• 23:30
  South,
• 23:31
  stop
• 23:31
  being
• 23:31
  friends.
• 23:33
  East.
• 23:34
  Ask
• 23:34
  questions
• 23:35
  to
• 23:35
  understand
• 23:36
  more.
• 23:37
  Or
• 23:37
  west,
• 23:38
  make
• 23:39
  fun
• 23:39
  of
• 23:39
  their
• 23:39
  idea.
• 23:41
  Spin
• 23:41
  your
• 23:41
  inner
• 23:42
  compass
• 23:42
  and
• 23:42
  point
• 23:43
  that
• 23:43
  way.
• 23:48
  If
• 23:48
  you
• 23:48
  landed
• 23:49
  on
• 23:49
  east
• 23:50
  asked
• 23:50
  questions
• 23:51
  to
• 23:51
  understand
• 23:52
  more,
• 23:53
  you're
• 23:53
  doing
• 23:53
  the
• 23:54
  brave
• 23:54
  work
• 23:54
  of
• 23:55
  listening
• 23:55
  and
• 23:55
  learning.
• 23:56
  That's
• 23:57
  empathy
• 23:57
  and
• 23:58
  openness
• 23:58
  in
• 23:59
  motion.
• 24:02
  Now
• 24:02
  it's
• 24:02
  your
• 24:03
  turn.
• 24:04
  Can
• 24:04
  you
• 24:04
  make
• 24:04
  up
• 24:04
  your
• 24:04
  own
• 24:05
  scenario?
• 24:06
  A
• 24:06
  time
• 24:06
  when
• 24:06
  you
• 24:07
  had
• 24:07
  to
• 24:07
  choose
• 24:07
  what's
• 24:08
  right.
• 24:09
  What
• 24:09
  did
• 24:10
  your
• 24:10
  compass
• 24:10
  tell
• 24:11
  you
• 24:11
  to
• 24:11
  do?
• 24:12
  You
• 24:12
  can
• 24:12
  even
• 24:13
  draw
• 24:13
  your
• 24:13
  own
• 24:13
  compass
• 24:14
  quest
• 24:14
  map
• 24:15
  after
• 24:15
  this
• 24:15
  episode.
• 24:16
  With
• 24:16
  twisty
• 24:17
  trails,
• 24:17
  helpful
• 24:18
  signs
• 24:18
  and
• 24:19
  values
• 24:19
  at
• 24:19
  every
• 24:20
  turn.
• 24:21
  Remember,
• 24:22
  your
• 24:22
  compass
• 24:23
  doesn't
• 24:23
  just
• 24:23
  tell
• 24:23
  you
• 24:24
  where
• 24:24
  to
• 24:24
  go.
• 24:25
  It
• 24:25
  shows
• 24:26
  you
• 24:26
  how
• 24:26
  to
• 24:27
  move
• 24:27
  through
• 24:27
  the
• 24:28
  world
• 24:29
  with
• 24:29
  courage,
• 24:30
  with
• 24:31
  kindness,
• 24:32
  with
• 24:32
  thoughtfulness.
• 24:34
  And
• 24:35
  guess
• 24:35
  what
• 24:35
  you're
• 24:36
  already
• 24:37
  doing.
• 24:37
  Amazing.
• 24:42
  Let's
• 24:42
  open
• 24:43
  our
• 24:43
  belief
• 24:43
  backpacks
• 24:44
  and
• 24:44
  carefully
• 24:45
  tuck
• 24:45
  in
• 24:46
  the
• 24:46
  treasures
• 24:46
  from
• 24:47
  today's
• 24:47
  journey.
• 24:48
  Not
• 24:49
  just
• 24:49
  things
• 24:49
  to
• 24:49
  carry,
• 24:50
  but
• 24:51
  reminders
• 24:52
  of
• 24:52
  the
• 24:52
  values
• 24:53
  that
• 24:53
  we've
• 24:53
  explored.
• 24:55
  Each
• 24:55
  one
• 24:56
  tells
• 24:56
  a
• 24:56
  story
• 24:57
  Each
• 24:58
  one
• 24:58
  can
• 24:58
  help
• 24:59
  guide
• 24:59
  you.
• 25:03
  First
• 25:03
  up,
• 25:04
  a
• 25:04
  folded
• 25:05
  paper
• 25:05
  map.
• 25:06
  It
• 25:07
  doesn't
• 25:07
  have
• 25:07
  all
• 25:07
  the
• 25:08
  answers,
• 25:09
  just
• 25:09
  a
• 25:09
  few
• 25:09
  big
• 25:10
  landmarks.
• 25:11
  Kindness,
• 25:13
  honesty,
• 25:14
  fairness.
• 25:15
  And
• 25:16
  you
• 25:16
  get
• 25:16
  to
• 25:16
  chart
• 25:17
  the
• 25:17
  path.
• 25:18
  This
• 25:18
  map
• 25:19
  reminds
• 25:19
  us
• 25:19
  that
• 25:20
  our
• 25:20
  inner
• 25:20
  compass
• 25:21
  helps
• 25:21
  us
• 25:21
  make
• 25:22
  choices
• 25:23
  even
• 25:23
  without
• 25:24
  a
• 25:24
  set
• 25:24
  of
• 25:24
  written
• 25:25
  rules.
• 25:27
  Our
• 25:27
  next
• 25:27
  object
• 25:28
  is
• 25:28
  a
• 25:28
  magnifying
• 25:29
  glass.
• 25:30
  Humanists
• 25:31
  ask
• 25:31
  big
• 25:32
  questions
• 25:32
  and
• 25:33
  examine
• 25:33
  things
• 25:34
  closely.
• 25:35
  Just
• 25:35
  like
• 25:36
  detectives
• 25:36
  of
• 25:37
  truth.
• 25:38
  This
• 25:38
  magnifying
• 25:39
  glass
• 25:39
  helps
• 25:40
  us
• 25:40
  pause,
• 25:41
  reflect,
• 25:42
  and
• 25:43
  ask
• 25:44
  what's
• 25:45
  fair,
• 25:46
  what's
• 25:47
  helpful?
• 25:48
  What
• 25:48
  will
• 25:49
  happen
• 25:49
  if
• 25:49
  I
• 25:49
  do
• 25:50
  this?
• 25:52
  Finally,
• 25:52
  we'll
• 25:53
  add
• 25:53
  a
• 25:53
  pencil
• 25:54
  with
• 25:54
  a
• 25:55
  well
• 25:55
  used
• 25:55
  eraser.
• 25:56
  Because
• 25:57
  your
• 25:57
  beliefs,
• 25:58
  just
• 25:58
  like
• 25:58
  your
• 25:58
  ideas,
• 25:59
  can
• 25:59
  grow
• 25:59
  and
• 26:00
  change.
• 26:01
  This
• 26:02
  pencil
• 26:02
  says
• 26:02
  it's
• 26:03
  okay
• 26:03
  to
• 26:03
  ask
• 26:03
  questions,
• 26:04
  to
• 26:04
  make
• 26:05
  mistakes,
• 26:05
  and
• 26:06
  to
• 26:06
  keep
• 26:06
  rewriting
• 26:07
  the
• 26:07
  story
• 26:08
  of
• 26:08
  who
• 26:08
  you're
• 26:09
  becoming.
• 26:11
  There
• 26:11
  you
• 26:11
  go.
• 26:12
  Three
• 26:13
  powerful
• 26:13
  reminders
• 26:14
  tucked
• 26:15
  inside
• 26:15
  your
• 26:15
  belief
• 26:16
  backpack.
• 26:17
  A
• 26:17
  map
• 26:18
  for
• 26:18
  your
• 26:18
  values.
• 26:19
  A
• 26:19
  magnifying
• 26:20
  glass
• 26:21
  for
• 26:21
  thoughtful
• 26:21
  choices.
• 26:22
  A
• 26:23
  pencil
• 26:23
  for
• 26:23
  growth
• 26:23
  and
• 26:24
  learning.
• 26:25
  Explorers.
• 26:26
  Can
• 26:26
  you
• 26:26
  believe
• 26:26
  it?
• 26:27
  This
• 26:27
  is
• 26:27
  our
• 26:28
  10th
• 26:28
  episode.
• 26:31
  We've
• 26:31
  learned
• 26:32
  so
• 26:32
  much
• 26:32
  about
• 26:33
  what
• 26:33
  different
• 26:33
  people
• 26:34
  believe.
• 26:35
  From
• 26:35
  Shabbat
• 26:36
  candles
• 26:37
  to
• 26:37
  aboriginal
• 26:38
  dreaming,
• 26:39
  from
• 26:39
  the
• 26:39
  teachings
• 26:39
  of
• 26:40
  Confucius
• 26:41
  to
• 26:41
  the
• 26:41
  celebration
• 26:42
  of
• 26:42
  Ridvan.
• 26:44
  And
• 26:44
  today,
• 26:44
  we
• 26:45
  explored
• 26:45
  something
• 26:45
  a
• 26:46
  little
• 26:46
  different.
• 26:47
  How
• 26:47
  some
• 26:47
  people
• 26:48
  live
• 26:48
  with
• 26:48
  strong,
• 26:49
  beautiful
• 26:50
  values
• 26:50
  without
• 26:51
  following
• 26:51
  a
• 26:52
  religion.
• 26:56
  Now
• 26:56
  it's
• 26:57
  your
• 26:57
  turn.
• 26:58
  It's
• 26:58
  time
• 26:59
  to
• 26:59
  start
• 26:59
  thinking
• 26:59
  about
• 27:00
  what
• 27:00
  you
• 27:01
  believe.
• 27:03
  What
• 27:03
  ideas
• 27:04
  do
• 27:04
  you
• 27:05
  want
• 27:05
  to
• 27:05
  carry
• 27:05
  with
• 27:06
  you?
• 27:07
  What
• 27:07
  values
• 27:08
  do
• 27:08
  you
• 27:09
  want
• 27:09
  to
• 27:09
  pack
• 27:09
  in
• 27:10
  your
• 27:10
  belief
• 27:11
  backpack?
• 27:12
  From
• 27:12
  what
• 27:13
  you've
• 27:13
  learned
• 27:14
  from
• 27:14
  your
• 27:14
  family,
• 27:15
  your
• 27:16
  experiences,
• 27:17
  and
• 27:17
  all
• 27:17
  the
• 27:18
  journeys
• 27:18
  we've
• 27:18
  taken
• 27:19
  together,
• 27:20
  your
• 27:21
  mission
• 27:21
  this
• 27:21
  week
• 27:22
  is
• 27:22
  to
• 27:22
  design
• 27:23
  your
• 27:23
  very
• 27:23
  own
• 27:24
  belief
• 27:24
  backpack.
• 27:25
  We're
• 27:25
  calling
• 27:26
  it
• 27:26
  the
• 27:27
  Backpack
• 27:27
  I
• 27:28
  Built
• 27:28
  Challenge.
• 27:29
  Here's
• 27:29
  how
• 27:30
  it
• 27:30
  works.
• 27:31
  First,
• 27:31
  go
• 27:32
  to
• 27:32
  Faithfully
• 27:32
  Explore.com
• 27:33
  and
• 27:34
  download
• 27:34
  our
• 27:34
  Belief
• 27:35
  Backpack
• 27:35
  printable.
• 27:36
  Second,
• 27:37
  think
• 27:38
  about
• 27:38
  values
• 27:39
  or
• 27:39
  ideas
• 27:39
  that
• 27:40
  matter
• 27:40
  most
• 27:40
  to
• 27:40
  you.
• 27:41
  Things
• 27:41
  like
• 27:42
  kindness,
• 27:43
  honesty,
• 27:44
  curiosity,
• 27:45
  bravery,
• 27:45
  or
• 27:46
  fairness.
• 27:47
  Third,
• 27:48
  draw
• 27:49
  or
• 27:49
  write
• 27:49
  one
• 27:50
  item
• 27:50
  in
• 27:50
  each
• 27:50
  compartment
• 27:51
  that
• 27:51
  represents
• 27:52
  one
• 27:52
  of
• 27:52
  your
• 27:53
  beliefs.
• 27:54
  It
• 27:54
  could
• 27:54
  be
• 27:54
  a
• 27:54
  book
• 27:55
  for
• 27:55
  learning,
• 27:56
  a
• 27:56
  heart
• 27:56
  for
• 27:57
  compassion,
• 27:58
  a
• 27:58
  megaphone
• 27:59
  for
• 27:59
  speaking
• 28:00
  up.
• 28:00
  Whatever
• 28:01
  feels
• 28:01
  true
• 28:02
  to
• 28:02
  you.
• 28:03
  Fourth,
• 28:04
  color
• 28:05
  it
• 28:05
  in.
• 28:06
  Make
• 28:06
  it
• 28:06
  bold,
• 28:07
  bright,
• 28:07
  and
• 28:08
  full
• 28:08
  of
• 28:08
  meaning.
• 28:10
  So
• 28:10
  zip
• 28:10
  it
• 28:11
  up,
• 28:11
  color
• 28:11
  it
• 28:11
  in,
• 28:12
  and
• 28:12
  share
• 28:12
  your
• 28:13
  beliefs
• 28:13
  with
• 28:13
  us.
• 28:14
  We
• 28:14
  can't
• 28:15
  wait
• 28:15
  to
• 28:16
  see
• 28:16
  what
• 28:16
  you're
• 28:17
  carrying
• 28:17
  on
• 28:18
  your
• 28:18

  Cozy

  up,
• 29:03
  snuggle
• 29:03
  in,
• 29:04
  and
• 29:05
  maybe
• 29:05
  grab
• 29:06
  an
• 29:06
  imaginary
• 29:06
  spoon,
• 29:07
  because
• 29:08
  I've
• 29:08
  got
• 29:08
  a
• 29:08
  story
• 29:09
  bubbling
• 29:10
  just
• 29:10
  for
• 29:11
  you.
• 29:12
  It's
• 29:12
  an
• 29:12
  old
• 29:12
  folk
• 29:13
  tale
• 29:13
  told
• 29:13
  all
• 29:14
  around
• 29:14
  the
• 29:14
  world,
• 29:15
  and
• 29:15
  it's
• 29:15
  a
• 29:16
  favorite
• 29:16
  for
• 29:16
  lots
• 29:17
  of
• 29:17
  humanist
• 29:17
  families.
• 29:19
  Why?
• 29:20
  Because
• 29:20
  it's
• 29:20
  about
• 29:20
  kindness,
• 29:22
  creativity,
• 29:23
  and
• 29:23
  how
• 29:23
  a
• 29:24
  whole
• 29:24
  lot
• 29:24
  of
• 29:25
  nothing
• 29:26
  turned
• 29:26
  into
• 29:26
  something
• 29:27
  wonderful.
• 29:30
  Once
• 29:30
  upon
• 29:31
  a
• 29:31
  time,
• 29:32
  or
• 29:32
  maybe
• 29:32
  even
• 29:33
  yesterday,
• 29:34
  in
• 29:34
  a
• 29:34
  town
• 29:34
  not
• 29:35
  so
• 29:35
  far
• 29:35
  from
• 29:35
  your
• 29:36
  own,
• 29:37
  a
• 29:37
  traveler
• 29:38
  arrived
• 29:38
  at
• 29:39
  a
• 29:39
  quiet
• 29:39
  village.
• 29:41
  This
• 29:41
  traveler
• 29:42
  had
• 29:42
  dusty
• 29:43
  shoes,
• 29:44
  an
• 29:44
  empty
• 29:44
  belly,
• 29:45
  and
• 29:46
  one
• 29:46
  very
• 29:47
  unusual
• 29:48
  item
• 29:48
  in
• 29:48
  their
• 29:49
  pocket,
• 29:50
  a
• 29:51
  small,
• 29:52
  smooth,
• 29:53
  round
• 29:54
  stone.
• 29:55
  They
• 29:56
  also
• 29:56
  carried
• 29:56
  a
• 29:57
  big
• 29:57
  or
• 29:57
  ol
• 29:57
  cookin
• 29:58
  pot,
• 29:59
  plunking
• 30:00
  along
• 30:00
  with
• 30:00
  each
• 30:01
  step.
• 30:02
  They
• 30:02
  were
• 30:02
  hungry
• 30:04
  and
• 30:04
  tired
• 30:05
  and
• 30:06
  a
• 30:06
  little
• 30:06
  hopeful,
• 30:07
  so
• 30:07
  they
• 30:08
  knocked
• 30:08
  on
• 30:08
  one
• 30:08
  door.
• 30:09
  Sorry,
• 30:09
  I
• 30:09
  don't
• 30:09
  have
• 30:09
  enough,
• 30:10
  said
• 30:10
  the
• 30:10
  villager.
• 30:12
  They
• 30:12
  tried
• 30:12
  another.
• 30:13
  No
• 30:13
  food
• 30:13
  to
• 30:14
  spare
• 30:14
  here,
• 30:14
  said
• 30:15
  someone
• 30:15
  else.
• 30:16
  Another
• 30:17
  shook
• 30:17
  their
• 30:17
  head.
• 30:18
  Another
• 30:18
  closed
• 30:19
  a
• 30:19
  window.
• 30:20
  Everyone
• 30:21
  in
• 30:21
  the
• 30:21
  village
• 30:22
  was
• 30:22
  too
• 30:22
  busy.
• 30:23
  Didn't
• 30:24
  have
• 30:24
  enough
• 30:24
  time,
• 30:24
  didn't
• 30:25
  have
• 30:25
  enough
• 30:25
  food,
• 30:26
  didn't
• 30:27
  have
• 30:27
  enough
• 30:27
  of
• 30:27
  anything
• 30:28
  to
• 30:28
  help
• 30:28
  him
• 30:28
  out.
• 30:30
  So
• 30:30
  the
• 30:30
  traveler
• 30:31
  scratched
• 30:31
  their
• 30:31
  head,
• 30:32
  grinned,
• 30:33
  and
• 30:33
  walked
• 30:34
  right
• 30:34
  to
• 30:34
  the
• 30:34
  center
• 30:35
  of
• 30:35
  the
• 30:36
  village
• 30:36
  square.
• 30:37
  They
• 30:38
  plopped
• 30:38
  down
• 30:39
  their
• 30:39
  pot,
• 30:40
  filled
• 30:40
  it
• 30:40
  with
• 30:41
  water
• 30:41
  from
• 30:41
  the
• 30:41
  well,
• 30:42
  and
• 30:43
  clink,
• 30:44
  dropped
• 30:44
  in
• 30:44
  the
• 30:45
  smooth
• 30:45
  stone.
• 30:46
  What
• 30:46
  are
• 30:47
  you
• 30:47
  doing?
• 30:47
  Asked
• 30:48
  a
• 30:48
  curious
• 30:49
  kid
• 30:49
  with
• 30:49
  wild
• 30:49
  hair
• 30:50
  and
• 30:50
  skinned
• 30:51
  knees.
• 30:51
  Why,
• 30:52
  I'm
• 30:52
  making
• 30:53
  stone
• 30:54
  soup,
• 30:55
  said
• 30:55
  the.
• 30:55
  Traveler
• 30:56
  dramatically,
• 30:56
  waving
• 30:57
  a
• 30:57
  wooden
• 30:58
  spoon
• 30:58
  like
• 30:58
  a
• 30:58
  magic
• 30:59
  wand.
• 31:00
  Stone
• 31:00
  soup?
• 31:00
  You
• 31:01
  can't
• 31:01
  eat
• 31:01
  a
• 31:01
  rock.
• 31:02
  The
• 31:02
  kid
• 31:03
  giggled.
• 31:04
  Oh,
• 31:04
  but
• 31:05
  this
• 31:05
  is
• 31:05
  no
• 31:06
  ordinary
• 31:06
  rock.
• 31:07
  This
• 31:08
  soup
• 31:08
  is
• 31:08
  going
• 31:09
  to
• 31:09
  be
• 31:09
  delicious.
• 31:11
  It
• 31:11
  just
• 31:11
  needs
• 31:12
  a
• 31:12
  little
• 31:12
  something
• 31:13
  extra.
• 31:14
  The
• 31:14
  traveler
• 31:15
  winked.
• 31:15
  The
• 31:16
  kid
• 31:16
  zipped
• 31:17
  home
• 31:17
  and
• 31:17
  came
• 31:17
  back
• 31:18
  holding
• 31:18
  up
• 31:19
  a
• 31:19
  carrot.
• 31:20
  The
• 31:20
  traveler
• 31:21
  chopped
• 31:21
  it
• 31:22
  up
• 31:22
  with
• 31:22
  flair.
• 31:23
  Another
• 31:24
  villager
• 31:25
  peeked
• 31:26
  out.
• 31:26
  Stone
• 31:27
  soup?
• 31:28
  Is
• 31:28
  that
• 31:28
  a
• 31:28
  real
• 31:29
  thing?
• 31:30
  Well,
• 31:30
  it
• 31:31
  could
• 31:31
  use
• 31:31
  a
• 31:31
  bit
• 31:32
  of.
• 31:32
  Cabbage,
• 31:33
  said
• 31:33
  the
• 31:33
  traveler
• 31:34
  thoughtfully.
• 31:35
  I've
• 31:35
  got
• 31:35
  some
• 31:36
  of
• 31:36
  that
• 31:36
  leftover,
• 31:37
  said
• 31:37
  the
• 31:37
  villager,
• 31:38
  and
• 31:39
  off
• 31:39
  they
• 31:39
  ran.
• 31:41
  Then
• 31:41
  came
• 31:41
  someone
• 31:42
  with
• 31:42
  a
• 31:42
  potato.
• 31:44
  Someone
• 31:44
  else
• 31:44
  added
• 31:45
  onion
• 31:45
  slices.
• 31:47
  Another
• 31:47
  tossed
• 31:48
  in
• 31:48
  herbs
• 31:48
  and
• 31:49
  a
• 31:49
  handful
• 31:49
  of
• 31:50
  beans.
• 31:51
  And
• 31:51
  even
• 31:51
  the
• 31:52
  grumpiest
• 31:53
  grumbler
• 31:53
  brought
• 31:54
  a
• 31:54
  tiny
• 31:54
  garlic
• 31:55
  clove
• 31:56
  and
• 31:56
  muttered,
• 31:57
  fine,
• 31:57
  but
• 31:57
  just
• 31:57
  one.
• 31:58
  The
• 31:58
  pot
• 31:58
  started
• 31:59
  to
• 31:59
  steam.
• 32:00
  The
• 32:01
  smell
• 32:01
  drifted
• 32:02
  across
• 32:03
  rooftops
• 32:03
  and
• 32:04
  under
• 32:04
  doorways.
• 32:06
  People
• 32:06
  who
• 32:06
  hadn't
• 32:07
  talked
• 32:07
  in
• 32:07
  weeks
• 32:08
  started
• 32:09
  laughing
• 32:09
  together.
• 32:11
  Elders
• 32:12
  shared
• 32:12
  stories.
• 32:13
  Kids
• 32:14
  ran
• 32:14
  in
• 32:14
  circles,
• 32:15
  and
• 32:16
  suddenly
• 32:17
  the
• 32:17
  village
• 32:18
  didn't
• 32:18
  feel
• 32:18
  so
• 32:19
  quiet
• 32:19
  anymore.
• 32:20
  Almost
• 32:20
  ready.
• 32:21
  Called
• 32:21
  the
• 32:22
  traveler,
• 32:22
  giving
• 32:23
  one
• 32:23
  last
• 32:23
  heroic
• 32:24
  stir.
• 32:25
  They
• 32:25
  tasted
• 32:26
  it
• 32:26
  and
• 32:26
  said,
• 32:27
  mmm.
• 32:28
  Almost
• 32:28
  perfect.
• 32:30
  Just
• 32:30
  missing
• 32:31
  one
• 32:31
  last
• 32:32
  thing.
• 32:32
  Someone
• 32:33
  to
• 32:33
  eat
• 32:33
  it
• 32:33
  with.
• 32:34
  And
• 32:34
  just
• 32:34
  like
• 32:34
  that,
• 32:35
  everyone
• 32:35
  pulled
• 32:36
  up
• 32:36
  a
• 32:36
  seat.
• 32:37
  They
• 32:37
  passed
• 32:38
  bowls.
• 32:38
  They
• 32:39
  shared
• 32:39
  bread.
• 32:40
  They
• 32:40
  laughed
• 32:41
  with
• 32:41
  full
• 32:41
  bellies
• 32:42
  and
• 32:42
  warmer
• 32:42
  hearts.
• 32:43
  And
• 32:44
  you
• 32:44
  know
• 32:44
  what?
• 32:45
  The
• 32:45
  soup
• 32:45
  was
• 32:46
  delicious,
• 32:47
  even
• 32:48
  though
• 32:48
  it
• 32:48
  started
• 32:48
  with
• 32:49
  nothing
• 32:49
  but
• 32:49
  water
• 32:50
  and
• 32:50
  a
• 32:51
  stone.
• 32:52
  And
• 32:52
  the
• 32:52
  moon
• 32:53
  rose
• 32:53
  and
• 32:53
  the
• 32:53
  stars
• 32:54
  blinked
• 32:54
  awake.
• 32:55
  The
• 32:55
  traveler
• 32:56
  leaned
• 32:57
  back
• 32:57
  in,
• 32:57
  said,
• 32:58
  see.
• 32:59
  When
• 32:59
  everyone
• 32:59
  brings
• 33:00
  a
• 33:00
  little
• 33:00
  something,
• 33:01
  a
• 33:01
  carrot,
• 33:02
  a
• 33:02
  smile,
• 33:03
  a
• 33:03
  story,
• 33:04
  we
• 33:04
  end
• 33:05
  up
• 33:05
  with
• 33:05
  so
• 33:05
  much
• 33:06
  more.
• 33:06
  From
• 33:07
  that
• 33:07
  night
• 33:07
  on,
• 33:07
  the
• 33:07
  village
• 33:08
  was
• 33:08
  never
• 33:08
  quite
• 33:09
  the
• 33:09
  same.
• 33:09
  They
• 33:10
  still
• 33:10
  had
• 33:10
  their
• 33:10
  strugglers,
• 33:11
  but
• 33:11
  they
• 33:12
  remembered
• 33:12
  how
• 33:12
  to
• 33:13
  come
• 33:13
  together
• 33:14
  with
• 33:14
  just
• 33:15
  a
• 33:15
  pot,
• 33:16
  a
• 33:16
  stone,
• 33:17
  and
• 33:17
  a
• 33:17
  whole
• 33:18
  lot
• 33:18
  of
• 33:18
  heart.
• 33:21
  So
• 33:21
  many
• 33:21
  humanists
• 33:22
  love
• 33:22
  this
• 33:22
  story
• 33:23
  because
• 33:23
  it
• 33:24
  reminds
• 33:24
  us
• 33:24
  you
• 33:25
  don't
• 33:25
  need
• 33:25
  rules
• 33:26
  or
• 33:26
  rewards
• 33:27
  to
• 33:27
  do
• 33:27
  something
• 33:27
  kind.
• 33:28
  You
• 33:29
  just
• 33:29
  need
• 33:29
  to
• 33:29
  care.
• 33:30
  You
• 33:30
  just
• 33:30
  need
• 33:30
  to
• 33:30
  come
• 33:31
  to
• 33:31
  the
• 33:31
  table.
• 33:33
  So
• 33:33
  what
• 33:33
  will
• 33:34
  you
• 33:34
  bring
• 33:34
  to
• 33:35
  the
• 33:35
  table
• 33:35
  this
• 33:35
  week?
• 33:40
  Speaking
• 33:41
  of
• 33:41
  bringing
• 33:41
  to
• 33:41
  the
• 33:42
  table,
• 33:42
  it's
• 33:43
  time
• 33:43
  for
• 33:43
  our
• 33:43
  listener
• 33:44
  shout
• 33:44
  out.
• 33:45
  And
• 33:45
  Avery
• 33:45
  brought
• 33:46
  something
• 33:46
  to
• 33:46
  her
• 33:47
  family's
• 33:47
  dinner

• 33:48
  Let's
• 33:49
  hear
• 33:49
  about
• 33:49
  it.

  Avery

  our
• 33:52
  Shabbat
• 33:53
  episode

  and
• 33:54
  said
• 33:54
  they
• 33:54
  were
• 33:54
  inspired
• 33:55
  to
• 33:55
  start
• 33:55
  a
• 33:55
  new
• 33:55
  tradition
• 33:56
  at
• 33:56
  home.
• 33:57
  Avery
• 33:58
  asked
• 33:58
  their
• 33:58
  family
• 33:58
  if
• 33:58
  they
• 33:59
  could

  light

  a

• 34:00
  at

  dinner

  on

  and

  take

  turns
• 34:02
  sharing
• 34:03
  something
• 34:03
  good
• 34:03
  that
• 34:03
  happened
• 34:04
  that
• 34:04
  week,
• 34:05
  just
• 34:05
  like
• 34:06
  Jewish
• 34:06
  families
• 34:06
  often
• 34:07
  do
• 34:07
  during

  Shabbat.
• 34:09
  Avery
• 34:09
  said
• 34:09
  it
• 34:10
  made

  dinner

  feel

  calmer,
• 34:12
  more

  connected,

  and

  even

  a

• 34:15
  That's

  what
