Want to be inspired? So many job seekers and career coaches have asked to see this extraordinary film that I decided to re-post it. In our lives we go through many career and life transitions. But this film will give you pause as to what finding purpose can mean. Even in the Circus! I have never posted a short film before but I believe this is well worth a pause in your search for a new career or job. Look forward to your comments.

Wasn't expecting that! I guess we all need to be challenged to the greatest possible extent in order to find our true strength and purpose. It has been that sort of year for so many of us . . . we just need that kind soul, that visionary that gives us the opportunity to once again be whole and succeed. Thank you for making this available.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely loved it! Time for those who haven't already done so, to find their dharma. I hope this will help. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.

I am always amazed by the magic of the human spirit, but I shouldn't be. I will circulate this beautiful piece.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
Wow! I was riveted to the clip. What a beautifully artistic and poignant piece of film. The message is powerful and unforgettable. Thanks for sharing this with us.
ReplyDeleteThe movie was a bit long; but I was glad to have taken the time to watch it. What an inspiring movie! When time gets tough, it's from our within that we turn to for power.
ReplyDeleteNo excuses...
ReplyDeleteWe all have something inside us that makes us great regardless of outward appearances or limitations.
What a great, inspiring movie.
Thank you so much for sharing this with us! Very inspiring and beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThank you. I so enjoyed this wonderful film. Isn't it amazing what the human spirit can accomplish when we open our minds and hearts to the endless possibilities and opportunities.
ReplyDeleteI agree that this was so beautiful
ReplyDeleteand needed by so many. I especially
received the message that it was not up to his new friends, or even
the circus owner to find his talent, it was something he needed to discover on his own. (A BIG lesson)
There are very few films that can match the inspiration that his one provided me with. We keep on focussing at our handicaps that stop us from not achieving what wee can in life...the truth however is otherwise...focus on the strengths that these weaknesses give us....and there is no limit to what one can achieve. Thanks for this wonderful film. Regards, Viplava
ReplyDeleteNicely done.
ReplyDeletereally cool short film. great way to make a point.
ReplyDeleteThis is a lovely and inspiring film. It showed the true nature of the ability of man to help themselves as well as trust in others to help them to believe in themselves. Well timed, I am a single parent who has been out of work for over 6 months. The inspiration and symbolism are much needed to help me keep my attitude positive and my head above water. Thank you.

What a great short. I hope you'll let me "steal" it! Not only is the story of the "newest" circus performer inspiring, but also the support provided him by the others in the circus.
ReplyDeleteHe succeeded in the atmosphere of support provided by the others. That support didn't take the form of coddling, either.
Well done!
I think the inspiration he had on the child at the end was the greatest feat, the real pay-off.
ReplyDeleteSuch an inspirational story and the timming couldn't be more perfect! Keep them comming..
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing.
We deal so much with the shock of our situation that we fail to see what now lays in front of us is real opportunity. But we must open our eyes to be able to see that opportunity and we must believe in ourselves!
ReplyDeleteThis film has opened my eyes wide open, Thank you!
thank you. a bright spot to a day in need of them. Thanks again!
ReplyDeleteAwesome
ReplyDeleteThanks - Needed it. Hope to fly someday.
ReplyDeleteHumbling. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteGreat movie! I am glad I watched it.. very well choreographed, excellent acting, very touching.
ReplyDeleteA truly inspiring and heartfelt short...it gives the human spirit a visual voice.
ReplyDeleteWhile I do agree that it was a little long, even that aspect of this film was necessary. It forces us to use one gift we all have been given - patience.
ReplyDeleteThe film itself reminded me of a short mantra, if you will, that I learned when I began to study Eastern Philosophy and Meditation. I pass it along for anyone who might find strength in this short saying:
Be Still;
Look Within;
See the Light;
And Know.
I do hope that this will help others as it helps me. A very wise person told me, many years ago, that the hardest thing to do when you're going through a heavy change, is to remember ... that you are going through a heavy change!
It is my hope that all who are in this situation will find work that is worthy of their talents and creativity, and that they will always remember that right now, they are going through a change.
-a.
Though the film is a bit long, it's very inspiring. No one is perfect. But we can turn our weakness into opportunity.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing this highly inspiring jewel! Kindly, Rubens Turkienicz
ReplyDeleteVery inspiring. Thanks for sharing the film.
ReplyDeleteFirst let me finish wiping my eyes. Inspiring, sad, uplifting, WOW. Thanks for sharing and giving me a break from job searching. I have a disability that limits my job options..time for me to stand myself up and march on.
ReplyDeleteThis was inspirational, we put limits on ourselves; when we take them off we too can fly like the butterfly despite our perceived obstacles.
