My friend Gary Yost is a truly remarkable guy (you might remember him as the filmmaker and software designer from this interview I did about his COVID-19 VR documentary: https://zdoggmd.com/inside-covid19/ ). These days he's "retired" and spends his time on Mt. Tamalpais near San Francisco, and he's taken me on many a wander through some really magical nature there. He also composes music and makes videos like this one, his latest creation. I got to be a tiny part of his whole process on this and it was beautiful to see it unfold. It truly is an expression of where his mind goes while he's walking in the solitude of nature on Mt. Tam.
If you watch, try watching in 4K on the biggest screen you can find, preferably with headphones. It's a JOURNEY 🔥
I came home from work the other afternoon to find this precious trio (with mom) standing to the right of my driveway. They were so tiny! So cute!
In the middle of the night when your past misdeeds come back to berate you, you should do two things:
1. Honor the lessons and realize that it is because you're a better person now and be thankful of that!
2. See that persons who do harms against you and others are harming themselves more. Others are as yourself in the need compassion. Just as you needed compassion when you were in dark times, everyone needs compassion.
We are all a moment. We are not :that" moment, or a "future" moment. We are "this" moment!
