Discerning value and making meaning.
I created a group in Razoo, Facebook, Second Life, called Positive Change that exists in part to harness the potential of social media to foster human flourishing.

I want to do something:
Identify the top traits that make you you at http://www.authentichappiness.org.
Develop a life plan through the lens of your strengths that incorporates the three levels of well-being and all the basic human goods.
Dimensions of well-being:
:: Pleasure -e.g., eating pizza
:: Engagement -e.g., being absorbed in a project that connects with my strengths.
:: Meaning making -e.g., being the MC for a neighborhood festival.
Basic human goods:
:: Friendship
:: Knowledge
:: Purposefulness
:: Life
:: Play
:: Aesthetic Experience
This lens is set to raise money for http://www.kiva.org. My Second Life avatar is Faust Saenz, and he usually wears a Kiva jean jacket.
