Verifying My Humanity

Have you run across this phrase:

Verify Your Humanity ?

I enrolled in a neat new website (seems like it is also a blog) called http://www.librarything.com/.

On it, I found wonderful recommendations on books to read, complete with reviews. A fun way to meet others who are reading the books I am reading, discover similar, satisfying works.

When signing up, I had to punch in some letters, to assure the domain that I wasn't a robot or spamming robojoiner...hence the webmaster's requesting phrase, VERIFY YOUR HUMANITY.

The request made me think: How Do I Verify My Humanity....beyond just correctly typing a letter jumble?

MY LIST, TO DATE

• Looking people in the eye and greeting them with a smile.
• Saying thank you.
• Avoiding gossip.
• Offering to share what I have.
• Cleaning up after myself.
• Keeping my word.
• Noticing injustice, and seeking to rectify it.
• Appreciating goodness and beauty.
• Approaching each day as a friend.
• Loving.

That's the start of my Humanity Verification list. What's on yours?
