These series of Videos is a response to a calling. People of the world were asked to video their lives and send them to a film maker in which the clips would be used as a time capsule for generations to come.

And so these videos are in response to the film maker. And in this I would like to add a few thoughts about life in general in which I had written about in a book called Dance of Blue Kachina... http://www.lulu.com/product/paperback... ... The download is free.

From the book I would like to share with you a piece I wrote that goes well with the sentiment of these videos called "Life Is".

Life is...

Worrying about your daughter,
who is first going out with her friends,
without any parents around.

Life is playing catch with your son.

Life is letting the dog lick your face.

Life is cleaning the cat box,
even though it's your daughters d**n cat.

Life is an ocean that grabs handfuls of sand with every rushing wave.

Life is every rushing wave sliding only so far.

Life is a cloud that that changes form with the wind
then softly drifts away without much notice
to all but children and old people.

Life is a day in the park
sleeping on a picnic table
and listening to all that you hear
but dreaming it differently.

Life is a a boy standing at the bottom of a tree
peering up into it's pinnacle
and wondering how everyone would take notice
if he stood proudly on the highest branch.

Life is fighting for some things that are right
only to notice that some of those some things are wrong.

Life is fighting for some things that are wrong
only to make notice that some of those some things are right.

Life is turning a door handle
and entering into a room without notice.

Life is a baby suckling his mothers breast
as a toddler watches.

Life is broken windows
to be fixed.

Life is having everything in common with your brother
but agreeing on nothing.

Life is the thunderous snap of lightning
and a cricket's nighttime chirp after the rain.

Life is a big fish that jumps out of the water,
and you cast your line in the center of it's wake,
only to catch nothing.

Life is that fish,
on the end of your son's line,
who just sat and hoped.

If you want to know more about what life is... download the book. Like life... it can be given out for free.
