ABOUT CIRCLE OF LIFE

Hello children!

We are about to reach the end of a year of hard work and effort... Before we say goodbye, I wanted to share something I read during the AFTER-PLAY, the day we staged "Circle of Life".

I read it to the J6 children, parents and teachers, but today I wanted to share it with you, who also took part in this great school project.

Before you start reading, play the video. The idea is that you should listen to the song on the piano as you read along, kind of "background music". The words were written by my youngest sister. Enjoy!

“Great and small” took part in this wonderful project and a real “Circle of life” was displayed right in front of our eyes tonight. Let the message brought to us through the powerful images and music, linger in our souls, away from time and space, in deep gratitude and as a reminder to do the same.

Because this play has been an invitation to find our place. And to become aware that there is more to be seen, than can ever be seen: and more to do, than can ever be done, only if we remember who we really are.

So just like the bird

loves being a bird,

and the giraffe

enjoys being a giraffe,

find your own ways...

Deep Joy is the clue:

whenever you feel it

you are right in your place.

Whatever you do

affects all the rest.

And what you don´t do

undone will be left...

So stand in your Light

and your Light will light others...

And trust the strong thread

that great and small gathers:

LOVE is this deep bond

that we manifest

in a million ways...

And tonight this play

is only an example...

If your eyes are open...

You can´t miss the rest!!!
