One of my colleagues emailed me this link today.
OK, so I’m prepared for the fact that you might be put off by the religious slant, or you might find it a bit cheesy, but, hey, I think there’s way too much cynicism in this world. (I DO enjoy satirical comedy but that’s not the same as cynicism)
So, go on, take a chance, go watch this little presentation. The photography is really beautiful. The poem “An Interview with God” (anonymous poet apparently), which provides the text of the presentation, I rather like, and the music, by the way, is from the Forrest Gump score. As a whole this is a very touching work (have your tissues ready), and, you know what? It made me feel good!
You know me… not a big fan of organised religion, but I also really like this. I think its emphasis on simple human truths overrides the overt Christianity. That and the beautiful photography! It’s so funny that you sent this link to me so soon after I posted about what we can learn from babies. It strikes me that there is a commonality there, particularly the first response of how people want to grow up so quickly and forget childhood, and then come to regret its loss retrospectively. Thanks for the link!
