No matter where we live, what language we speak, or how much money we have, we all grapple with similar human challenges. Why are we here? What is our purpose in life? How do we find meaning? What brings us happiness?
Justine Nicole Du Toit and Michael Raimondo, who live somewhere outside Cape Town in South Africa, use their passion for filmmaking and their love of storytelling to remind their audience of one simple truth, namely, that we are all human, that inside our hearts and minds we all face similar challenges.
Yes, I admit I am also taken in by their Afrikaner accent which reminds me of my own time decades and decades ago in what was then South-West Africa, but I can tell from the many comments to each of their video clips how their messages resonate with so many other people.
On some mornings, I make myself a cup of coffee and then click on one of their videos to give me something to mull over as the day unfolds. Also, on some mornings, although not as frequently, I click on the Support Us button to let them know that one of their stories has also spread as far as Australia and touched another person's heart and mind.
