I watched this before but it never really captured me. A friend of mine shared this on her Facebook a while ago and it kind of spoke to me. And as the maker of this short film, The Jubilee Project, wrote, “There are moments in life when we feel a connection so deep words can hardly describe it.”
And love, it, transcends the senses. We simply love another just because we love; reason to love is seeking for approval and security. We do not need anyone’s approval to love another. We do not need any reason to love, we just love and we accept the person as who he/she really is.
“Perhaps love is the process of my leading you gently back to yourself. Not whom I want you to be, but to who you are.” – Antoine de Saint – Exupéry

An inspiring video which touches my heart every time I watch it. And yet it never failed to put a smile on my face at the end of the video. For those of you who haven’t watched it before. Hope you’ll be inspired by it and yet at the same time have a good laugh watching it. Something which caught my attention in the video between the man and the girl.
The girl was crying and asking the man, “Why am I different from others?” And the man replied, “Why…do you have to be like others.” The video is about a deaf girl learning to play the violin; impossible it may seem. However, as the man said in the video, music is a visible things, close your eyes. You will see.”
Believe in ourselves and then we have to take massive action! You can Shine too!

CEO of the People, Haruka Nishimatsu of Japan Airline truly brings leadership to a while new level of meaning. “If management is distant, up in the clouds, people just wait for orders,” Nishimatsu told CBS News through a translator. “I want my people to think for themselves.” Nishimatsu says a CEO doesn’t motivate by how many millions he makes, but by convincing employees you’re all together in the same boat.
According to the CBS News report, his salary for running the worlds 10th largest airline: not millions, but one year as low as $90,000. When he was forced to cut salaries for everyone else, he also cut his own.
How many CEOs out there were doing that in the recent crisis? Here is one who was leading by example. I am one who not only believe in walking the talk but also in being the change I want to see in the world; these were exactly what I could relate to immediately when I first saw the video. Haruka Nishimatsu is truly one who can inspire his team and I believe that with him heading Japan Airline, the company would continue to fly through the turbulence ahead.
In a world where many seek to lead, not many are willing to serve. I believe that a great leader is the best servant; one who is willing to bring himself down to serve anyone.
