Wall the one the watching the hawks i am told with the time i thought this and this as study this survey very cold yes and this as study this survey very cold. Is good because i like seeing like how it all played out to a new like you so its good because i like seeing like how it all played out to have a new like you seeing each country in the broken barrel theres 3 different. 3 different categories for each cutting each country in the broken barrel theres 3 different. 3 different categories where each country has a very 43 yeah and just so so you know the folks at home know exactly how this whole thing drew very far yeah and just so so you know the folks at home know exactly how this whole thing came about how one of the study looked at a survey of one point came about how one of the study looked at a survey of 1300000 people in 125 countries and like you senator asking questions about a 1000000 people in 125 countries and like you senator asking questions about how you we give as people not like you said not how much is it out. How you we give as people not like you said how much is your government signed a check for about how much do we as people actually get yeah its really interesting so the government signed a check for about how much do we as people actually get yeah its really interesting so the survey essentially asked of these individuals to you know basically if youve done any of the the survey essentially asked of these individuals to you know basically if youve done any of the following this past month asked him 3 questions a you know have you helped a stranger oh in this past month i asked him 3 questions a you know have you helped a stranger or someone he didnt know who needed help the other question was did you donate money to a chair someone he didnt know who needed help the other question was did you donate money to a charity and the final question was did you volunteer your time to an organization or yourself parity and the final question was did you volunteer your time to an organization or yourselves did you give up your time to help other people but when you look at like the top 2 like it would you give up your time to help other people but when you look at like the top 2 like me look at my and mark came in at number 2 on the list 49 percent i mean look at my and mark came in at number 2 on the list 49 percent said they helped a stranger or someone they didnt know 49 percent 81 percent of mine said they helped a stranger or someone they didnt know 49 percent 81 percent in mine more so they donated to charity 43 percent said they volunteered more so they donated to charity 43 percent said they volunteered and gave up their time for to an organization or Something Like that now take a look at the United States and gave of their time the 4 to an organization or Something Like that now take a look at the United States came in number one over the course of 10 years 72 percent of us and said theyd have came in number one over the course of 10 years 72 percent of us and said theyd have helped a stranger in the last year 61 percent so they donated to charity have helped the strange. In the last year 61 percent so they donated to charity and then 42 percent of the theres a big fall into the time so. And the 42 percent of the theres a big fall into the time so. I dont of course run a price for a book that is 70. 00 the books you push the sense of helping to distribute ranger it was here in the us i dont or here in the us i dont see it very often walking the streets would warms my heart to know that it has taken place once you see it very often walking the streets would warms my heart to know that it is taking place once everything thats and thats the kind of wonder when you look at our government or a politician saying thats and thats the kind of wonder when you look at our government or politicians or the sort of the state of our political system it is hard to imagine that were this very generous people sions and sort of the state of our political system it is hard to imagine that were this very generous people i can see why we havent been as generous theres a culture about that all i can see why we havent been as generous theres a culture about that sort of take it over of not wanting to give or make sure you keep enough for yourself and sort of take it over of not wanting to give or make sure you keep enough for yourself and you know obviously very like antisocialism kind of attitude of show you know obviously very like antisocialism kind of attitude of sharing sharing is bad but what ended up really kind of sharing is bad but what ended up really kind of surprising me was the different numbers you saw out of surprising me was the different numbers you saw in african countries where we havent seen them on these lists before we dont really see the fricken countries where we havent seen them on these lists before we dont really see them as part of the giving indexes we dont see them actually part of them as part of the. Giving in that says we dont see them actually a part of the world so over the last decade you had indonesia and kenya are the most improved the world so over the last decade you had indonesia and kenya are the most improved countries overall having increased their index score by an average of 19 points and countries overall having increased their index score by an average of 19 points and then you have liberia sorry with sierra leone kenya and zambia top film then you have liberia sorry with sierra leone kenya and zambia topped the list of countries where people were most likely to help a stranger a list of countries where people were most likely to help a stranger i mean authors of the report pondered that this could be linked to the which are the authors of the report pondered that this could be linked to the which part of this is the african philosophy of boon to which provides Caring Community as part of this is the african philosophy of boon to which provides Caring Community and the zoo where it is translated loosely translated in english is i am because the zoo word is translated loosely translated in english is i am because we are so its part of where a sense of community we cant do anything alone you know enough as we are so its part of where a sense of community we cant do anything alone you know nothing is alone were all connected and. Thats that that to me is the biggest most the thing is alone were all connected and. Thats that that to me is the biggest message of this entire report is that it reminds us that we are not all home that we are we actually do with this entire report is that it reminds us that we are not all home that we are we actually do have to go out and help people want a daily basis and you know when you look and you begin to the numbers of things have to go out and i hope people want a daily basis and you know when you look at you begin to the numbers of figs and say yeah there was you know countries at the bottom its the 1st time they believe slowly moves up the bottom but you know as it was the year there was you know countries. The bottom its the 1st time they believe slade who is at the bottom but you know thats motivation right but if you live in one of those places its like ok you know we got a rise out you know what thats motivation right but if you live in one of those places its like ok you know we got to rise you know lets lets work hard because whats incredible is that you remember this is over the last sleds were part because whats incredible is that you remember this is over the last 10 years so these people where you saw these big numbers and why and more in the age of these big jumps in africa in 10 years so these people where you saw these big numbers and why and more in the age of these big jumps in africa and things like that the rebel world you have to remember that these were people surveyed over a period of time that you saw the death things like that the rebel world you have to remember that these were people surveyed over a period of time that you saw the depths of financial crisis take place and the fallout from that you just had the financial crisis take place and the fallout from that use had you know the brighter times as the kind of Global Economy again to bounce back but then the brighter times of that kind of Global Economy again to bounce back but then it kind of went in more recent months its now weve had nothing but geo political unrest all over the place with the it kind of went in more recent months its now weve had nothing but geo political unrest all over the place with the wars and Everything Else so its amazing that youre still seeing this like you said tab despite world wars and Everything Else so its amazing that youre still seeing this like you said tab despite what governments are doing that the people of these countries are stepping up well i mean thats a its you know what governments are doing that the people of these countries are stepping up well i mean thats a its you know i think when you take governments and politicians out of the mix and you look at what people actually do on main street i think when you take governments and politicians out of the mix and you look at what people actually do on main street around the world its much different than what consultants and people are telling you and what around the world its much different than what consultants and people are telling you and what pollsters and predictors of polls try to paint things that pollsters and predict. Of polls try to paint things you know liberal war and all that stuff it all it all is kind of meaningless when you get down to you know liberal war and all that stuff it all it all is kind of meaningless when you get down to to actual people that is true. To actual people that is true. They call it the man flu when men get colds or the flu they call it the man flu when men get colds or the flu and they tend to complain just so little bit more than their female counter blue and they tend to complain just so little bit more than their female counterparts of the same illness we call it man flu or mankell now new research from the university of oregon part of the same illness we call it man flu or mankell now new research from the university of oregon suggests that all that craziness weariness insensitivity that comes about we gets suggests that all that craziness weariness insensitivity that comes about we get sick is actually a sign that our immune systems are working overtime the university of oregon to part sick is actually a sign that our immune systems are working overtime the university of Oregon Department of anthropology found that being sick qualifies as an emotion using finding of anthropology found that being sick qualifies as an emotion using findings from 130. 00 studies and their own they found that because our immune system requires so much energy to 130 studies and their own they found that because our immune system requires so much energy to heal it would just say your body is regulatory system to fight infection these adjustable it would just say your bodys regulatory system to fight infection these adjustments according to the study are what make a person feel sad fatigued easily limits according to the study are what make a person feel sad easily nauseated less hungry and were sensitive to cold and pain when were sick so nauseated less hungry and. Were sensitive to cold and pain when were sick so remember i mentioned the man flu this is how it relates to the study as storage and the female form or i mention the man flu this is how it relates to the study as storage and the female hormone actually slows down how fast viruses multiply so women with more estrogen havent actually slows down how fast viruses multiply so women with more estrogen have a naturally stronger immune system in general than men especially with viruses and factions internationally stronger immune system in general than men especially with viruses and factions in turn testosterone actually suppresses the immune response to disease turn testosterone actually suppresses the immune response to disease which means at least in theory that men are more emotional when theyre sick but which means at least in theory that men are more emotional when theyre sick but its not a weakness its how they fight. It its not a weakness its how they fight. It was. I dont know whats more i was. I dont know whats more the aspect of the mail and go to the you know the would be affected by disease saying the aspect of the mail and go to the you know the would be affected by disease more so and feel it more so i think it makes perfect sense you know as you describe it but more so and feel it more so because i think it makes perfect sense as you describe it but also the fact that its like the whole fueling of being sick is actually an emotional the fact that its like the whole fueling of being sick is actually an emotion that really damaged my mind as much as you call it lassitude that is the can really damage my mind as much as you call it lassitude that is the motion the feeling of being sick so lassitude as they called the condition of emotion the feeling of being sick so lassitude as they called the condition of weariness or debility or watching c. N. N. Or watching c. N. N. You can have the same last of weariness or debility or watching c. N. N. Or watching c. N. N. You can have the same lassitude its an emotion that coordinates resistance to active its an emotion that coordinates resistance to active infection according to the study and what they said is that a general active infection according to the study and what they said is that it generates a characteristic facial expressions like slack face waves characteristic facial expressions like slack face all muscles drooping eyelids slightly parted lips it has a distinct all muscles drooping eyelids slightly parted lips it has a distinct what they call quality so profound tiredness you become very very exhausted you have what they call quality so profound tiredness you become very very exhausted you have a reduced our feelings of vulnerability altered temperature perception thats not a feeling or reduced our feelings of vulnerability on. Temperature perception thats have a feeling all theyve got and increased pain sensitivity so all of these things are what happen all the cot and increased pain sensitivity so all of these things are what happen when we get sick or depending on how. Easily or when we get sick or depending on how. Easily or difficultly or whatever the challenges are of your particular immune system difficultly or whatever the challenges are of your particular immune system your body is going to do that more so the thing you know the study is about men and women and how you know when your body is going to do that more so the thing you know the study is about men and women and how you know women tend to just fight through it. But you know men it tends to put them down that they come in time to just fight through it. But you know men it tends to put them down the couch we get beat up we feel bad we try to say that we feel bad but you know we get beat up like we feel you know we try to say that we feel bad but you dont believe it was over its like wow feel really like no get out and were all i really do feel bad it was over its like wow feel really like no get out and were all i really do feel bad but you know but then its like no i have that last week its ok its just you know but then its like no i had that last week its ok its just your heart it is its literally was our i was never like see i told you its address or harm it is its literally does are what i was going to like see i told you its interesting when you look at this also about when you look at like depression jews are falls into the rates of depression of hazily when you look at this also about when you look at like depression jews that falls into the rates of depression of have risen by more than 18 percent worldwide since 2005 i cant imagine why it would risen by more than 18 percent worldwide since 2005 i cant imagine why it would create nightly news every day and thats according to the World Health Organization another theory that has been presented a nightly news every day and thats according to the world health.
