Read the explanation in Patti Digh's blog post before you watch the video. It will provide a context for what happens in the video : 3 minutes without a single word.
A heart opens and blossoms in the presence of another. What a gift to be able to witness it! Life past, present and future(?) right there in 3 minutes. Oh, how I hope they at least went out for dinner afterwards so they could talk.
One commenter, Marion Williams-Bennett summed it up this way : "Everything happens in this three minutes - Love, passion, forgiveness, hope, connection, remembrance - while others look on. Then, he walks away and she finds herself and starts over. It's life in three minutes."
Yes, there are a few people who could make my heart catch like this. And I think they know who they are ... ;-) Thank you to Patti D for asking the question.
It also makes me think about the concept of presence. Was the artist really there with other people who sat down with her at the table? The ones she didn't have a past with? I'm not sure ... She was guarded, that's for sure.
