Motivations

Watch humanist celebrants describe the pleasure they get from their work

Themes

  • Humanists believe we should have the freedom to choose how we mark special moments in our lives in ways that feel right for us
  • Humanists will often speak about their fascination with other people’s stories and the value that can be found in sharing them
  • Hearing other people’s stories can help us to see the connections we have with other people and can help us to better understand ourselves

Question: What shared interests, passions, and goals do you think drive the humanist celebrants you have met this week?
