"Power Writting" -My Poem Fast Lane.

The days go by sometimes slow sometimes fast.
Other days it drags on & other times you can barely feel it stop,

You shouldn't rush the days that go on forever
but you shouldn't try & stop the days that fly by,

Each day should be approached as if it were your last.
Loving who you spend it with & living it with grace.

Some days that fly by you might not get back
You should enjoy them all
the ones that speed up with no stop
& the ones that need to move faster.

Film Review "To Be Heard"


To Be Heard: Trailer from Edwin Martinez on Vimeo.


The film "To Be Heard"directed by Roland Legiardi-Laura took 4 years to film and dealt with the connection between 3 growing teenagers. Their biggest challenge was going from troubled young teenagers to even more troubled young adults. Although it wasn't easy they made the best of it. The strength they had with in them took them to their destiny one step at a time. The film "To Be Heard" was a fantastic film that expressed and involved the audience with such strength that the respect was easily gained for all the actors. The film captured the audience attention with every new obstacle and experience that the actors faced.

"African Air"

Flying in a motorized paraglider over one of the most diverse continents in the world, George Steinmetz captures in his photographs the stunning beauty, potential and hope of Africa's landscapes and people. See the project at http://mediastorm.com/publication/african-air



The name of the film that I watched was "African Air" by George Steinmetz. In this film George Steinmetz shows his viewers how he sees Africa. He manages to fly an aircraft and take pictures from above. He finds this challenging but takes some amazing pictures of the scenery in Africa. The film shows the good and the bad that Africa has, but also shows that Africa is however making progress.The goal of the film probably was to show strength and faith in a place that isn't always in a great position or state. The message of the film was that although progress may be long term it will come with great efforts.
