Letters to Our Children
"Because we don't know when we will die, we get to think of life as an inexhaustible well.
Yet everything happens only a certain number of times, and a very small number, really.
How many more times will you remember a certain afternoon of your life like this,
some afternoon that's so deeply part of your being that you can't ever consider your life without it?
Perhaps four or five times more, perhaps not even that?
How many more times will you watch the full moon rise?
Perhaps twenty, and yet it all seems
limitless."
Paul Bowles (The Sheltering Sky, 1949)
Life is beautiful, and sometimes all it takes is a different angle—or some footages of captured moments on the phone—to truly appreciate it.
These videos are crafted as letters to our children, the very foundation of what drives us, serving as a time capsule for them to explore in the future. We hope to leave behind a tangible expression of our experiences so they can look back and see the world as we did, appreciating the fleeting moments that make life so precious.
We also hope these videos will inspire you as well to find and celebrate your own quiet joys, no matter how mundane it is or may seem.
