Thank you for being so honest, and not particularly judgmental about this. The simple truth will…I don’t know, will sow itself into each of us who “read” this blog as it should.

It’s all right, you know, to not have known what to do.

I loved the brief mention of rain soaked shoes drying out in the hallway. A lot of pictures came to mind throughout that piece.

Accolades.

Daniel ( a nice Jewish name),
Thanks for continuing to remind me that what for many of us is just a fun hobby, has the potential to be so much more.

Your work is so true and so relevant. How you capture the feeling of light, and hope, along with the obvious grief is graceful and stunning. Thank you.

It’s Sunday morning here in London. Your words, and images, and homemade music create a little space to reflect. To think about ‘neighbours’ and friends and living to die, and flowers, which are wondeful at any time. This short, reflective, even poetic, film provokes me to think about film-making in a another way.

Daniel great piece once again. The blend of soundtrack and visuals are amazingly powerful together.

“I hope he didn’t live these last years wondering if something more could have been done.”

Seems that death always asks the living the question of ‘what more can be done; what was left undone’ doesn’t it? You’re asking yourself if flowers would have made a difference when he was alive. I pondered similar thoughts two months ago when a friend committed suicide. Many of your films seem to have this simultaneous theme of “carpe diem” and regret for not having done so. These themes are very fascinating to me and I think are worth exploring deeper. Keep up the thoughtful forays into these themes.

& on man’s inhumanity to man…it seems to me we must all be guardian’s of civility, of honorable interaction…I’ve been trying to locate all the great books and essays on the subject…if you’ve any suggestions

Beautiful imagery and even more beautiful thoughts. On flowers…marigolds are set out during dia de los muertos because they are so pungent that their fragrance can reach the dead…i don’t know if this follows thru other all saints days, but in the idea of it I find solace.
