Friday’s Fill: Gratitude 07.11.2008
My dear, sweet Father sent this video to me. You know, I don’t know why people do the things they do. I really don’t. But this? This just filled me with such joy. Honestly, I was brought to tears by the end. Why? I have no idea. But I am grateful that people do these sort of crazy things and share them with the world.
Check it out. Is it not sort of “It’s a small world” for the modern era?

I’ve seen this before and love it, too. It makes me think about the human spirit and how much we more alike than different. Thanks for bringing it around again.

I had seen this before, but really enjoyed watching it today! He started posting videos for friend doing this silly little dance everywhere he went, became popular, and I think some gum company paid for him to go all around the world. I think my favorite spot he danced in was the Korean demilitarized zone… thanks for sharing, Nona.

I’ve seen this many times…. and never have grown tired of it

Nona, you and everyone else who has seen it. I cried too. I’d be worried if you hadn’t. There was a wonderful article in the NYTimes about this guy. And you should watch the other video he has. The very first one. Equally great if not better. How are you?
