Animation: Marcel The Shell Makes it Cool To Be Happy

This video will make your week, if it hasn't already.  I joined Marcel's army of fans recently and wanted to share the love.  Hats off to creators Jenny Slate and Dean Fleischer-Camp.  Thank you for making it cool to be happy.  Hasn't been that way since the late '70s.

Besides being funny and insanely cute, Marcel also shows us that you can be acutely aware of your limitations and learn to celebrate them. Marcel seems to get as big a kick out of his (her?) tiny stature as we do.
