Daddy's Hands

My father taught me how to take an engine out of a car, take it apart and put it back together.  And being a Farmer's son, you can only imagine the chores I had to do.  I am blessed to have a father who accepts me for who I am, loves the man I have been with for the past 8 years and inspired me to be the man I am today.  I love you daddy, and the hands I will always find comfort in.  Happy Father's Day!

A Very Special Moment - Issue #11: A Piece of Chalk

Someone posted this video on Facebook last week, and I wanted to use it for this segment.  

What makes this piece "A Very Special Moment" is it's inspiring message through dance.  Much like musicians or anyone who loves to sing, dancing gives you a place to go, a place to find solace and comfort when we need it most.  Whether it's helping us overcome challenges or relieving stress, singing and dancing are mediums that impact our lives.  The video is a little over 3 mintues long and was produced by four young filmmakers from Germany (see Mashable.com).

Justen Beer, the protagonist in the video, plays a boy facing challenges at home, as his parents argue all the time and is faced with classmates bullying and harassing him at school.  

Justen takes a "Piece of Chalk" and the story commences.  I won't say more, but I promise you, it's absolutely amazing and heart-felt.  You Must Watch!
