VULNERABLE!

Vulnerable, a short film full of ideas that my brain is trying to wrap around. Learning how to feel at peace and move on when there is loss!

 Natural for us to think we are in slow motion as the world around us keeps spinning on but it is the brains defence against too much extreme sadness. It may carry on for weeks but taking ones self out into a temporary new discovery, uncommon in our normal life helps. Very well done, edit, as pictures say a lot.

 Thats very good, "the brains defence agains extreme sadness!"
When something sad happens in life as it did recently, I found myself for a short period weaker than I thought. It was then I decided to move pass my loss and cherish the memories embracing the feelings of love and happiness over the emptiness of loss.
This video was very random for me, no point, no aim, this was just how my emotions unfolded in video form. Thank you for the great words! I think this represents how I usually think in everyday matters racing from thought to thought being provoked by things in nature and sudden happenings, even expected or not.
But, there is something lacking, I wanted to express more in a different way but this is how it unfolded over the weekend as I captured shots from here and there. All in all, I feel much better now!
Thank you!

 This is a visual of how many different thoughts and ideas go through our minds almost instantaneously. Some we are conscious of and some not. Perceptions of reality created by our own experiences in life. very artsy bro. Would make a great installation in a art gallery.

 Thats how my mind sees things at times, a thousands thoughts being processed in seconds. I think there are times we become more conscious of things when its necessary for us to grasp. This was a collection of being busy, losing preciousness and not being able to ride over 2 days I compiled some ideas and put this together. Totally random, I took the cloud scenes with totally different ideas but the typhoon gave me a kind of twisted visual leading to this! hahahahha Thats a great idea, I wonder if more art galleries in the future will feature short videos along with artistic stills and paintings? I was at one art gallery and they had some animations cartoons playing in a little section!

 I really like this video! It has a self healing vibe. In my humble opinion It's in moments of significant turmoil and change that we feel most alive.. it's not like I ever seek out tumultuous events, however I have come to appreciate all the emotions that come along the way. Take your time man, let the process wash over you and look forward to riding out the other side a stronger and more complete person. We are all vulnerable and that's what makes life so amazing and special.. I wrote this for me as much as for anyone else!

 Thank you greatly, you articulated your thoughts perfectly for me! Its very true, as people we don't like turmoil or hardship but it often finds our way. I will look forward and continue to ride on remembering my loss in greatness! I realise that Im a lot more vulnerable to reality than I thought, emotions overwhelming in a rush full of both joy and sadness. I kind of tried to explore these ideas with this short video, life is amazing and special and stepping back to see it as it is you realise, life is awesome!

 We all are extremely tough and extremely vulnerable at the same time. Sometimes this is hard to comprehend. As you get older you will have to face more and more loss. Hold your head up and carry on!

 Thank you for the good words brother! As we age and understand little bits of our reality fearing our loss is just a lost cause, time to carry on! Awesome!

 Thank you dearly mate, Im all good, I just had some dear loss in my family recently and it opened a new world to me in a good way. This video in a sum expresses that loss of emptiness combined with the open clarity that new roads, new ventures and new understandings are on its way! This is were biking helps tremendously, as we can transform our perceptions of fogginess into clear sun shiny days! Ok, my next video will be a fun trail bash! Yaaaa rideOn !

 Sorry for your loss, Bro...you have a huge support group of friends to help you if you need it...

 Thank you big L for the kind words! I really do feel lucky to say we have friends all over the world now who are there for support and good times! Im doing very good and soon turned my aching into pleasant memories. I tried to make a funky video expressing my emotions and how the light is brighter on the other side, but all the kids I show say its just scary! hahahahhahah I really do wish I could just skip to the US on a beat, there was a big conflict in my mind knowing that its possible to get on a plane to see my family but its takes a big toll in many ways! Thank you greatly!
