We're not really alone, after all. Not on DU.

I was reminded of the small things that can make someone smile today.

Reading some of the funniest posts throughout DU-niverse this last week has helped me to keep my humor, no matter how rough the day's been.

A shared song that can lift your soul.

A short private message, just to see how you're doing (Thank you, friend)

A joke that makes you laugh out loud to yourself.

A picture that inspires and a caption that makes you go "Snap!"

It's the personal stories and human moments that we can relate to. Behind our usernames are people. I like to imagine the diverse and interesting DU community and how beautiful a bouquet we must be!

Here's a video for us on this Sunday night.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
