“Unsung Heroes” is a beautiful movie on Netflix about family, love, and resolve. It narrates an inspiring story of moving forward with complete trust, demonstrating resilience through life’s ups and downs. This heartfelt story deeply stirred me.

A few weeks ago I heard this beautiful piano piece. The music flowed like a graceful, swaying dance of tempo, with a sweet and playful rhythm. The sounds of beauty echoing in the notes. What a musical serenade of the heart and for the soul.

Have you ever watched the movie The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas? I’ve seen it twice. The first time, I wasn’t prepared for what would happen at the end, and I cried. The second time, over a decade later, my daughter wanted to watch it, so I joined her, having forgotten much of the storyline. It moved me deeply all over again. So why bring up this very sad, heart-wrenching story? Well, I want to ask honestly—how many of us still behave like dictators today, or feel that others impose too much on our lives?

Water is patient. Dripping water wears away a stone.

Vultures hover over their prey, ready for the last dying breath of an animal in the wilderness. How many people do you see circling around elders, hoping their names appear in a will to inherit wealth? How many try to stake a claim in long-standing businesses built by the hard work of others, eager to gain assets without contributing to the legacy? To me, this is akin to a conqueror marking their territory, seeking dominion over someone else’s life’s work.
