    From the bustling streets of busy cities to the serene landscapes of remote towns and villages, humanity encompasses a remarkable array of cultures and traditions. Yet beneath our diverse appearances and backgrounds, we all share similar experiences of joy and pain, love, and loss. When we start to embrace this shared humanity, focussing on the qualities that unite us, we start to create a sense of empathy and understanding.
    When we seek to truly understand the perspectives and emotions of others, we put ourselves in their shoes, bridging the gap between ourselves and others. And by leading with kindness, we create a ripple effect that spreads throughout our communities and beyond, contributing to a more compassionate and inclusive society.
    In the words of Archbishop Desmond Tutu, “We are different so that we can know our need of one another. For no one is ultimately self-sufficient.”

    It is amazing to me how a person can experience such violence by other human beings and keep spreading love, helping others and taking chances with the risk of getting hurt again. She feels so deeply and is such a beautiful person, inside and out. I really like the song and her voice, light as a feather, a bit jazzy. And she is right, the only way to heal is to stop longing for that what can never come back. Michel does a wonderful job in creating trust, capturing the essence of a person and in editing the video’s. Every video is a little gem on its own.

    If I can put food on the table
    and I have people I love, and who love me,
    then what more can I ask for?
    One day I’ll wake up with someone I love
    watch him stir and laugh a laugh
    freer that the freest laugh around.
    And as you sleep, I ‘ll sneak away and brew
    coffee for our days anew
    fresher than the freshest brew in town.
    One day...
    one day I’ll be brand new.
    One day I’ll build a kitchen of my own
    spatulas and mixing bowls
    hanging by a busy stove with you.
    And if you leave me, I won’t fall again,
    mourn the world and let it end.
    I’ll pick up my pieces and let you.
    Because one day...
    one day...
    one day I’ll be brand new.
    I Loved this song♥♥♥

    the true "pain" of this life isn't the actual physicality of the traumatic experiences, but rather the learning knowledge we gain by understanding that the world we inhabit isn't the safe, loving space we're brought up to feel..... having experienced both extreme trauma, as well as soaring heights of success, I can honestly say that throughout this life I've been able to survive with my never ending vision of positive instances just over the horizon of experience. the positive life experience FAR outweighs the negative impact of the past if you allow yourself to know that you are bigger then your experiences, both good and bad. let go of the past, since that experience is behind you. stay humble within the experience of success in order to maintain your sanity as those around you are changed by your experience. in order to remind myself of this, I often turn to a poem by mary schmich, "wear sunscreen"...... all of life is contained therein.........

    Michael, Justine and all of you, thank you for another heart-touching film. It is so nice to get to know the people of Singapore, a country, which seemed such an enigma up to now.
    It was a pleasure to meet Weish and to hear her beautiful voice. What an amazing, loving and feeling person she is. How profound were her writings at a tender age of 8! Writing is very healing.
    I am so happy that she found someone that she feels "safe" with. I think that she nailed it. Our life partners need to be people that we feel safe to be with, where it is ok to show our good, our ugly, and all the other sides of ourselves. I am sorry for the pain that she experienced in the past. I don't quite understand what happened, but however horrific it was, I hope that she is healing, forgiving, and, in time, when she is ready to, letting go of it. I am not sure if I understand what was said, but I hope that Weish is learning to love the beautiful self that she is right now and enjoying today, just as it is.
    I, myself, have wished many times that I could go back and undo or do differently the things in my life until I realized that these choices and experiences have brought me here, where I am today, that pain, suffering, joy, and all of the other experieces, good and bad, culminated in the beautiful person that i am today.
    thank you.

      Maybe we all want to go back at times, redo things but as you said, it's all the different experiences that made us the person that we are today. May we enjoy and appreciate every day as best as we can, live life to its fullest. Sending you much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
