I am rarely at a loss for words. But I am at a loss when it comes to introducing this video. I could use words like inspiring, amazing, and beautiful. But they are just words and don’t adequately convey what I want to say.
And so all I have to say is – set aside 10 minutes and sink into this, with a box of tissues on hand.
My dear friend Joanne, my sister’s mother in law, shared this with me and because we share things that move us with friends, I am sharing with all of you! Thank you Joanne! Link below.

on November 20, 2013 12:55 pmWhile reading a book about trucks ( what else is new?) to the twins, I came upon the page with the trash truck, and I decided to show them this video. I only showed snippets but when I showed them musical instruments made of trash, they were amazed!! Of course, the triumph of the human spirit is the key point here, and how music lifts the soul, but it’s also a message about the seemingly useless things we discard every day. It can also be a message about reusing, recycling, repurposing. Let’s take as many messages as we can from this wonderful video. MK thanks for sharing on this site…. Love, Joanne
