"No" sounds like "Go" !

On Sunday July 28, I took a huge Leap of Faith---litterally. Never in all my life did I ever think I would have the courage to jump out of a plane at 14,000 feet and free-fall at 130 miles an hour. I mean, who does that? Well I just did. And you know what? Once I settled my mind on it and pushed away all the fears, doubts and anxieties that accompany such things, I said to myself : Is that all there is?

I recall the moment we we on the edge of the plane looking out....instead of butterflies in my stomach, I just totally surrendered into trust, that I was going to be okay and I was with people who I could count on, who wouldn't let me down. We rolled out of the plane and began our descent, which truly just felt like being underwater but much more windier. The parachute opened and we soared in the sky at sunset, in what might have been the most extraordinary and metaphysical feeling of my life.

This film project is also a Leap of Faith for me and for the all of us on the crew; trust that we will be able to find the support and raise the money we need with your help. Trust that this is a project seeded in pure love from the heart and soul bringing like-minded artisans, filmmakers and people to share the journey with us.

Life is about the journey, not the destination. - Chinese proverb
