Short-films that'll make you ponder... (My Zen Path: 60)

My Zen Path

Dear reader

This month I posted few animated short-films that have left impressions on my mind along with few quotes, songs, or poems related to these films. There are three such short-films without much elaboration from my side. Do watch these short-films (hardly 5 to 10 mins each), see what kind of feelings they evoke as you watch them.

If you could also share a poem/song/quote that connects you with the short-film on that post itself, that would be awesome. Or just write back with your thoughts if you want.

Cheers,

I'll be posting few relevant words, quotes or …
