They mean something - They empower - They strengthen - They help - They endure
They can change lives

ReplyDeleteHi Susi,
ReplyDeleteI felt the same. I started wondering at first what was going on (and why the link was sent to me). Then it all made sense. It's much deeper than someone just saying "Be careful what you write."
This is a great video!
ReplyDeleteWow, that was emotional--and very inspirational. Thank you
ReplyDeleteWow. It's amazing how the right words make such a huge difference.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting everyone.
ReplyDeleteLinda: It says a lot almost without a word being spoken until the end.
Cora: When I first saw it, I was thinking something like "It's just another video." But when she stops by the 2nd time, that changed for me.
Carrie: It's true. I've heard that Mark Twain quote about lightning/lightning bug quote, got it but didn't quite see it... until this video. It matters how you say things - even in writing.
Really powerful. Says a lot about humans actually.
ReplyDeleteIt made me want to jump through the screen and pick up his change for him.
ReplyDeleteMoving..
Wonderful post David, very moving. I am glad I saw this.
ReplyDeleteEllen,It is such a strong video, yet so simple.
ReplyDeleteKim, I had somewhat the same thought. I also thought of getting him a larger box for the folks who couldn't hit the cup (or who didn't want to get too close for one reason or another).
Margaret, I'm glad you liked it. sometimes it's better to not write anything and let the videos tell teh story.
