Creative and Touching


My fellow blogger and cousin Jake Felts (blogger name Felts Photography Blog) posted the above Youtube video on facebook. I normally don't click on people's video posts from Youtube, but Jake has a knack for finding really good ones. Well, this particular video definately did not disappoint!
When I first clicked on the play button and saw the first 15 seconds I thought,"Wow! This guy can sing. I can watch 5 minutes of him." As the seconds clicked by I was extremely pleased to see other people from around the world singing the same song. "Stand By Me" is one of my all time favorite songs and to see that people all over the world knew it was so nice. What was even better is how the documentary filmmakers chose to combine all of the performances into an amazingly beautiful ensemble piece. It is things like this that put a smile on my face, a bounce in my step and make me more thankful to be here. I can't fully explain the happiness this video makes me feel, so please click on the play button and enjoy.
