" What do you have in your pocket?
What do you love?
What do you fear?"
Link to the full movie on youtube: Life In a Day.
"I finally discovered my favourite unique word—and it goes something like Mamihlapinatapai. It’s from the Yaghan language, which is now a dead language btw, and this word was spoken in Tierra del Fuego (the very south most part of South America).
The meaning of the word is quite beautiful.
For example:
You know that moment or feeling when two people both want to initiate something but neither wants to be the one to start it? It can be perhaps two tribal leaders both wanting to make peace but neither wanting to be the one to begin it. Or it could be two people at a party wanting to approach each other and neither quite brave enough to make the first move!".
