  • Humanity is one big, eight-billion-person family that lives together on Earth - born on the same planet, covered by the same skies, gazing at the same stars, breathing the same air.
    We may speak different languages and belong to different cultures, but we are all part of the same human family. And like any other family, we are all unique - we have our own likes and dislikes, our own temperaments, our own experiences - but that doesn't make us any less a part of our family.
    In a world where kindness knows no boundaries, we have the power to create a tapestry of unity, where every person is valued, and the bonds of our human family are strengthened by the threads of empathy and respect. It is time we start to acknowledge that we are all in this together. The sooner we start to greet each other with open arms and open hearts, the sooner we will be able to make a change.
    ‘We are all related. And when you become aware of that, you realise how important it is to take care of your sisters and brothers.’ - Jay Bowen, Upper Skagit Tribe.
    Filmed in Skagit Valley Washington, USA.
    Featuring Jay Bowen (jaybowen-art.com/wordpress/)

    In collaboration with iNous, we recently released a beautiful deck of 52 cards - each card containing a quote from one of our films, paired with the activating visual muses of Lanon Prigge. The aim of this deck is to rekindle child-like curiosity and creativity, helping to navigate the shared waters of our human experience with grace and joy.

    Who is Reflections of Life? We are Justine and Michael (previously known as Green Renaissance). We use our passion for filmmaking and our love of storytelling, to remind our audience of one simple truth - that we are all human. The more that we understand and believe in this interconnectedness, the more we will treat ourselves, one another, and planet earth with a greater sense of compassion.

    When we start to see the divine in every soul we will have peace!
    When we realize that we came empty handed and will leave this world empty handed we will stop killing each other for land. We will learn to coexist!
    When we stop looking up to some people and down on others we will see that everyone is on their own path and that we are all here to fulfill Gods purpose! We will see value in every single person!
    When we stop thinking that everyone should look, act and be like ourselves we would love each other and hate will cease to exist!
    The answer is simple! Love, accept and learn to coexist with others!

Lessons we learn or decline as we breeze thru different seasons of life as our lives experiences the paths meant for us before birth and during our time here in this life term. Leaving the ego, greed, selfishness, powers hung on 'the nail' is wisdom that if understood and followed, our lives change, instantly for the better of one' humanity.

    Mình thấy được sang sẻ khi xem được thông điệp mà các bạn mang đến. Cảm ơn người đi tìm và người chia sẻ. Bạn đã đúng khi nhắc đến nguồn cảm hứng cho những cô gái ngoài kia, ^^, trong đó có mình. Sẽ có lúc hụt hẫng như rơi xuống và cũng như tràn đầy, mình hy vọng biết đủ trên hành trình này. Hôm nay mình hay nghĩ về điều này, đó là: những gì mình đang gặp đều đến vì khả năng của mình đủ để "xử lý" nó, thế nên ngay cả khi ta bị ung thư, tai nạn, trầm cảm, vui hay khổ cũng đều xảy ra vì mình có đủ khả năng để gặp được nó. Mình thấy khoảnh khắc biết ơn trong mình có xuất hiện hihi, chút xíu thôi cũng được và hạnh phúc. Chúc bạn trải nghiệm một đời trọn vẹn. ❤ Love you

    Justine and Michael....😍 I really APPRECIATE this Video!..I just watched this.. and 🙏 Jay Bowen, I Thank You soo much for sharing your life story really inspiring me!... about "Listening", "Expanding on gifts in life", "Taking care of our sisters and brothers".. We're all just ONE FAMILY!..
    After my mother's passing, I was thinking about "listening" too. ( While taking care of her, I prayed in order that she could be healthier. She could get the best health supports...etc. I've done my Best for accompanying her ). When finally I was alone and sad, I couldn't ask again like before. I faced this Reality well ( with still shedding tears..😢..)
    I (myself) wanted to be silent. Now "Listening" becomes my new habit in my life. I love it!.. because I can be more Grateful!.. While being silent and listening, I can think about..."What I should do for my present moment?"...
    Justine and Michael...🙏 Before my mother's passing, after watching your new video, I always tell her about the life story on that video. But now I can't do that again.. ( Watching this video is my experience without her...😢 ) Thank you soo much for sharing those Lovely Videos!.. SO GREAT!...🙏😍🥰❤️💚💐

    Thank you for sharing your gift & your beautiful wisdom with us, Jay. When you talked about the grandma with her head in her hands, man I felt that. I think, and sometimes share it with others, that the only way that things will truly change in our humanity and how we interact with each other and all the creatures of the Earth, with nature that is the Earth, with everything, is through a spiritual shift. I don't often get a response to that (unpopular) opinion, but that's okay because I know it to be true.

      @ReflectionsofLife  4 месяца назад

      We are glad you are enjoying our videos. All the newer videos have subtitles, maybe you have not set it?
      There are 'Closed Captions' available in various languages done by volunteers that assist us, including English [the box with CC switches subtitles on and off. Then press on the 3 dots or the wheel next to it and choose 'Captions/Subtitles' to find your language.].
      If the language you speak is not available, try the 'Auto translate' function of RUclips: Make sure that the CC button (next to the Settings wheel) is ON. Click the Settings/Wheel button in bottom or top right corner of the video - then select 'Subtitles/CC' or ‘Captions’ and 'Auto Translate' and choose your language. We hope this helps. Warm wishes, Justine and Michael. 💚
