Dear Gratefulness Team! We are truly humbled by your sharing of our films and this exciting new sharing adventure together with you. The work that you do shines a bright light into the dark corners and is so deeply needed at this time. Thank you for all your hard work and constant inspiration. Big love. Justine and Michael (Green Renaissance).
We absolutely agree – there is always light – we have the choice to wake each morning and face the day with a smile in our hearts. Sending you happy hugs. Justine and Michael (Green Renaissance) x
Deeply moving Lauren. We so often tend to define ourselves by our physical capabilities, or our careers. But there are so many beautiful layers to our being, so many incredible ways to make an impact and a contribution to those around us too. Thank you for doing what you do, to remind us to live with purpose and meaning. Sending hugs. Justine and Michael (Green Renaissance). x
Beautifully said Judith – spending time with James is a true joy – he radiates love and compassion. And he does so much for those in his community, truly living the spirit of ‘ubuntu’. Sending you love. Justine and Michael (Green Renaissance). x
So beautiful Cintia – may you always carry love and compassion in your heart. Thanks for appreciating all that Sue had to share with us in this film. Sending you happy wishes. Justine (Green Renaissance) x
And yet, we can all, in our own personal ways, be part of the solution… by sharing what we have, showing kindness to others, and reaching out a helping hand. Don’t ever underestimate the power of a seemingly small gesture…. it might mean the world to another. Warm hugs to you. Justine and Michael x
What a beautiful chant Dusty – thanks for sharing. And thank you also for your deep appreciation for our film. We send you love. Justine and Michael x
This made us smile – ‘or just to start your life’. Sometimes we just need to these little reminders that help to redirect us back to the path our hearts need to follow. Hugs to you Alina. Justine and Michael x
Just as you say, Nirmala is a real inspiration – constantly questioning, seeking to know more, never satisfied to just ‘settle.’ Hugs to you! Justine and Michael 💚
We agree Toni! So glad that you enjoyed this film. Justine and Michael 💚
Thank you for this beautiful message of appreciation Diane. It really makes us smile to hear that you are finding so much value from the sharing of these films. What we have learnt along this film making journey over the last four years, is that everyone has a story to share, some wisdom to impart, that we have so much to learn from each other. It’s about taking the time to truly connect and listen with open hearts and minds – that’s when the magic unfolds. Sending...

Very beautiful quote that you have pulled out from this story, and one that resonates deeply with us too! May your years continue to be filled with LOVE. Justine and Michael x
Absolutely Dominica – to be a minimalist to the same degree as Theo is, is certainly not an easy path to walk. It comes with many challenges and tough times. But what I take from this video is that it’s about each of us finding our own balance, about recognising that our possessions are not what define us – that we are how we behave towards ourselves and those around us. We have the choice to be so much MORE than what we have… by who we ARE :). Big hugs to you on yo...

WOW Brian! That is powerful. Thanks for allowing this story to resonate with you on such a deep love. Big hugs for all that lies ahead. Justine and Michael x
Thanks for these beautiful words of appreciation Sheila! It is such a pleasure to be able to share Theo’s story with you guys. Love Justine and Michael x
Oh Greta – your message really touched our heart. Thank you for seeing the beauty in each story that is so openly and honestly shared by each person who we have the honour of filming with. Our only aim for these films is that they reach far and wide, and touch as many hearts and minds as are needed. So please do keep sharing with those who you think need to access a particular message. And thanks also for mentioning The On Being Project – I haven’t heard of them, but wil...

We’re so glad that our films found resonance with you Colette, and that you enjoyed connecting with these people. Although we all come from different cultures and backgrounds, there is so much that we can share and learn from each other. We hope that you continue to find inspiration from our films in the weeks and months ahead. Love Justine xx
Dear Sheila. What a special message, and thanks for taking the time to read the article, and to watch the films. And how beautifully you said it ‘Don’t let the frame distract you’ – that really resonated with me. We’re working on so many more films in our spare time, so that we can keep sharing a new story every single Wednesday – so keep tuned into our Facebook page, or YouTube channel, for your weekly dose of inspiration. Much love from across the sea...
