Moments

[11 Mar 2010 | 0 Comments | ]

Life is not mea­sured by how many breaths you take, but the moments that take your breath away.

What defines a life? Will Hoffman’s short film stitches together ran­dom, mun­dane moments from the lives of dif­fer­ent peo­ple. But watch­ing this film, you feel like they are moments from your own life! The move from one moment to the next is non-linear, non-sequential, joy­ous, ter­ri­ble and unex­pected, all at the same time — and yet it evokes a feel­ing of deep con­nec­tion and beauty. Here is an invi­ta­tion to be nour­ished by what each moment of your life offers.

Shall We Dance

[9 Mar 2010 | 0 Comments | ]

John Clark is a man with a won­der­ful job, a charm­ing wife and a lov­ing fam­ily, who nev­er­the­less feels that some­thing is miss­ing as he makes his way every day through the city. Each evening on his com­mute home, John sees a beau­ti­ful woman, star­ing with a lost expres­sion through the win­dow of a dance stu­dio.

[4 Mar 2010 | 0 Comments | ]

Manila is beau­ti­ful. Believe it or not. I went on the tour of Car­los Cel­dran and it made me real­ize how impor­tant it is for us Fil­ipinos to have an under­stand­ing of the glory days our past so we know what we were capa­ble of, so that we know what we can be capa­ble of becoming.
