Dinosaurs
Dinosaurs are extinct animals that lived in the Mesozoic Era, a time in the history of the planet when the Earth was a single continent. Eventually this huge mass of land split into many pieces, forming the continents we know today.
Some dinosaurs walked on two hind legs, standing upright with hollow bones that supported their weight. Others walked on all four legs and moved slowly.
Most dinosaurs had a scaly skin and no hair on their bodies. They ate a variety of different foods, including leaves from trees and other plants.
They also ingested small stones, called gastroliths. They also had many teeth of varying shapes designed to fit their particular diets, such as Triceratops’ hundreds of curved teeth for chopping off vegetation or Diplodocus’ long pencil-like teeth for raking leaves off branches.
Dinosaurs were the largest animals to ever walk on land. They ruled the planet during the Mesozoic Era, a period from 245 million years ago to 66 million years ago.
Friendship
Friendships are close, loving relationships defined by attraction and affection. They can also be based on a common interest or shared goals. They often involve gifts and commitments of one type or another, but they do not always require reciprocal cooperation.
In a sense, friendship is similar to love (eros and philia), although it does not necessarily involve the same kind of concern for your friend for his sake as does love.
Several features of friendship have been recognized by social scientists: independence, discerningness, and acquisitiveness. Independents develop a friendship that is based on a specific person or group of people, regardless of circumstances in their lives; discerning people form a deep connection with their friends and can change their group of friends depending on changing circumstances in their lives; and acquisitive individuals develop a strong, core group of friends as they go throughout their lives.
In addition to the independent and discerning aspects of friendship, communication plays an important role in the formation of friendships. Generally, higher levels of communication competence predict greater opportunities to make friendships and higher overall satisfaction with friendships.
Belonging
Belonging is that feeling of being a part of something and fully accepted. It can be an individual or social identity, and is closely tied to trust and mutual understanding.
It can be fostered through active listening, which helps individuals build trust and connect with others. It also involves being open and vulnerable, allowing others to be their authentic selves without judgment.
The research indicates that a sense of belonging is linked to improved job performance and satisfaction as well as lower turnover rates. Employees with high levels of belonging are 34% more likely to stay at their job than those who have low levels.
To create a positive workplace culture, employers should focus on building a culture of belonging. This is because employees with a sense of belonging are more productive, happy and free to be themselves. In addition, employees with a strong sense of belonging are more likely to recommend their employer. They are also less likely to be absent from work due to illness.
Giving
Giving is an activity that involves spending money, time and effort to help others. The act of giving can be small or large, and it can make a huge difference in the lives of those around us.
A study from Harvard Business School Professor Michael Norton suggests that when we give, it can lift our spirits and improve our health. The good feeling is attributed to the way in which our brains activate areas of the brain associated with pleasure, trust and social connection.
The benefits of giving can range from increased self-esteem to lowered stress levels and a lower risk of depression. It also improves our physical wellbeing and can boost our longevity. It has even been shown to lower blood pressure, which is linked to a number of health issues.
