Dubai is a city of more - everything tries to be bigger, better, taller, longer, fancier, expensive-r... you get the idea.

But sometimes there is a good cause behind it.

Foresight, a dubai-based organization that funds research on diseases that cause sight loss, sponsored an attempt to break the Guiness Book of World Records record for the biggest pillow fight ever.

We told our students about it and encouraged them to attend... and a few of us teachers went as well.

I don't think we broke the record, but it was still an excellent minute of pillow-bashing for a good cause, and many students who couldn't attend sent donations along with those who could...

they make me smile.
