Humbling of a cabbie and his ride

"A couple weeks ago I was standing out on a cold evening in New York City waiting for a cab to come take me to a nightclub. After about 5 minutes of waiting, I was picked up by a middle-eastern gentleman in his 30's, and he was clearly angry. Swear words left and right about how horrible New Yorkers were. I knew my cab ride would only be about 10 minutes and there was a part of me that wanted to be silent and just move on with my life, but I also wanted to try and connect."

Awesome movies on friendship

We watched couple of awesome and very touching movies on friendship this last weekend.

One was "Le ballon rouge" which tells the very cute story of a friendship between an young boy and a red balloon and the envy the world has over their friendship.

The second one, part of the same DVD, was "Crin blanc: Le cheval sauvage" (White Mane) which tells the story of friendship between an young boy and a rebellious horse and the envy of an evil ranch owner, whose tyranny drives the story to a tragic close.
