Wonderment

Фильм және анимация

We've become so reliant on our words - we've allowed language to get in the way - we've forgotten that there are so many ways to communicate.
Animals, especially horses, understand our intentions and are able to communicate with us without needing to use words.
After a series of strokes, Gary was left unable to speak. But this didn't stop him from communicating. Through his relationship with his horses, we learn that we are more than just our words!
"Animals have so much to teach us about true communication, if only we were willing to listen." - Lisa Smith
To follow our film making journey - / greenrenaissance
This video was filmed in Prince Albert, a small town in Western Cape, South Africa.
Who is Green Renaissance? We are a tiny collective of 3 passionate filmmakers (Michael, Justine and Jackie). We live off-grid and dedicate our time to making films that we hope will inspire and share ideas.

    Many people are waking up. This is life. The moment we wake up that is when we realize what the real world is and the the "world" that we live in the physical world does'nt really make sense

    Brilliant! She spoke so eloquently. Talking about the ONE she loved who left a lasting impression on her. Horses like dogs are such sentient beings and can connect with us in an indescribable way which needed no language. What a beautiful piece! Good job GR.

    A fine example of how words don't teach. I am an author. I love the vast amount of words in our English language. Yet, as a Being, I understand that words don't teach. It is experience that teaches. You don't remember the moment that moved you, but the feeling of it somehow changed your perspective. I offer my readers a chance to get away from the everyday 'entertainment' of books, that they zip through. My books make a reader think. Offering more depth. Because that's how I live my life, in understanding of it. Depth speaks through our experiences and makes us become more of what we already are. This woman's story embraced that depth of who she is, and who she is becoming. That's the journey - it's the appreciation of your own expansion. Thanks for another moving film. ;)

    This 9 minute film moved me so much that I found myself crying quite intensely throughout most of it. Language gave us a brilliant means of communication, but by using it we've forgotten all the other forms of communication that can express so much more than words could ever do. This film illustrated that message in a way that my entire mind and body could really feel and understand. Thank you for creating and sharing such beautiful work. I'm so grateful I found your channel and I feel blessed that I came upon this particular film just before going to bed. I had a chaotic few days and my mind was wandering off into an endless dark hole, but this film gave me courage and reminded me to find and appreciate the beautiful things in life. After all, finding beauty is what I live for❄️I absolutely love your channel.

    Ah Bless Lisa Smith, tis wonderful to connect with The Creature Teachers because you are right they have so much to impart in the Silence because that's how we hear them. Gary, that absolute happiness in his face as Horse gave him weightlessness, i smiled too. I really loved your Heart Song, i heard it loud & clear & i cried with you yet such Grace you have inherited from Gary & The Creature Teacher Horses. Horse medicine brings a human friend healing. It helps in leaving negative thoughts in the past and having a much brighter vision of the present and future. Horse wisdom aids you in connecting with your Soul, Intuition and All Your Senses, Horse Teaches one to "Listen With All Your Senses". Mission Accomplished for both You & Gary 😌 When you said that The Horse People Made A Guard Of Honor, yes they did, what an Honor for Gary 😇I was reminded of Lawrence Anthony, remember how The Elephants he had saved, came to mourn his passing? They came to his house in the South African province of KwaZulu Natal. They stood around his house & kept vigil for two days. I wish i wish, more humans would crack open their Hearts & see The Creature Teachers like You & Gary Do. Thank You for For You Lisa 🙏

    in 2019 I was working at a warehouse never got to really do much but in most of my time I went to nature because my daily life was mundane and somewhat robotic. I lost my car, job, and S.O all right before the pandemic. I planned that year to leave my job and start a new life somewhere that inspired me. 20' - 22' feels like I lost years of my life. gas was high sky, cars were impossible to find under 5k I went camping and fishing a few times but no one was even driving or outside at parks. people were gone for so long until this summer. now everyone is out and places are packed. so depressing because before all this there was no crowds or overpopulation at places I found in nature and away from the world. In the video they say how nature is connected and they feel like one really, the silence and absorbing the sounds and nature around you described how I felt and It really made me happier and kind to others because peace inside myself. after all this isolation and years of working at a warehouse I've become colder and meaner and it shows. we truely need inner peace and nature gives us revitalization
