Taming "MALARKEY!" mind

My natural setting can be a little on the cynical side.  Sometimes I'm a little snarky.
I use Snopes like I use carmex--abundantly and with lip smacking.

Today someone posted this video*

and my first thought was "Well, I bet birds sit in all sorts of discordant and wacky patterns, too."

That in no way makes the video less wonderful. Indeed--it might be MORE wonderful, because it was exceptional. And it gets us thinking about patterns and connectedness and there's music, too?

And yet my brain went immediately to "MALARKEY!"

I'd rather go first to joy and beauty and love.


*Ok, it is 4.5 years old.  But there's an awful lot of things hiding around on the internet.
