Thumbs up 4 Generations: Water Buffalo Story (An inspirational story)

I don't know how many of you have run across this video. I thought it was appropriate to share it with those who had not seen it yet. It's a film short created by Robert Thompson, an American violin player living in China. Here's how he describes his film:

“4 Generations” is a film short documenting my journey in southwestern China (near Tibet) to first find, then deliver a water buffalo to a poor family. The water buffalo led us to a family with a phenomenal story. Inspired by author, educator, and founder of photo.net, Philip Greenspun’s post, and donated by Philip and his friend Craig."

It fits quite nicely with Steve's current blog entry on Gratitude but thought it belonged under Character & Contribution. This video illicits quite a number of positive emotions beyond gratitude...

(grab that box of kleenex - you'll need it!)
