I wish it were as easy to always be conscious and mindful and to feel gratitude like that as it is to take things for granted! Good eye that recognized Vandana Shiva (I recognized her right away, but she appeared so briefly I know the heads up helped!) I love her, and think she should win the Nobel Peace Prize. )I just added her web site, Seed Freedom, to my "Good Karma" list on my blog - thanks for the inspiration!)<br /><br />I loved that second video! That's the coolest thing! I also found a version of it on YouTube set to music by Philip Glass, which was nifty too. :-)<br />Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16146578985330272891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2279822094292237889.post-41085793253508417422013-04-04T09:04:20.507-07:002013-04-04T09:04:20.507-07:00I think your hubby could have just called that new...I think your hubby could have just called that new creation his, he made so many changes to the original. I love how he subbed out fennel...now, why would he do that, I wonder, hmm?<br /><br />The gratitude video had me completely transfixed. I love his voice, so relaxing. The video is a beautiful reminder of what we should be thankful for every day. By the end, I was as relaxed as Simon Cowell was watching Susan Boyle's first audition! <br /><br />Loved the pendulum balls, too, and SR and I watched all the hilarious videos in your last post.
