Mr. Rogers Was My Hero.
August 26, 2007
Mr. Rogers goes to Washington to help get funding for Childrens Television. Does he get his funding of 20$ million? Check it.
Man, he sure was a caring person. The world is a better place for having had Mr. Rogers in it.
This is 6:50 minutes of someone cultivating greatness.
With humbled gratitude,

Compassion, Giving, and Making a Difference Through Art
July 15, 2007
This is a moving video about the great sacrifice of amazing men and women—and their families. It’s also about the giving of one unusual—and very generous—artist who truly is making a difference.
This one won’t give you goose bumps, it will bring tears to your eyes. I’d be surprised if it doesn’t.

Leaving San Francisco a Better Person
April 21, 2007
by Travis Wright
Or, at least I like to think so. In the 8 days that I have been in San Francisco, California, I have talked to over 100 people from many different walks of life. I’ve talked to multi-millionaires, as I met several CEOs and thought leaders of the future of the internet. I have talked with many homeless people, including a ‘heirophant’ and another gentlemen that has lived homeless and wayfaring from place to place since early 1967.
And to each of the people I met, I handed them my card that says Cultivate Greatness on it. This fact remains, when you send happiness and friendliness with you, you get it in return.
So I had two days to play around in SF. Yesterday, I go to Alcatraz, and see how much of a bummer it would have been for those staying in those 5×9 rooms that were 7 feet tall. Poor Al Capone. Poor Machine Gun Kelly. Going out to the recreation area and seeing on the horizon a busy happening, San Francisco and both bay bridges.
Later on, I stumbled upon Haight and Ashbury in San Francisco on Friday, April 20th. Lots of hippies and alternative culturists out and about. Apparently, a pot smokers holiday is the day April 20th. And at 4:20 in the afternoon, that time is especially celebratory. Looking at my watch, 4:19, I grabbed a piece of chalk that was on the sidewalk and wrote the message.
