This is a custom film piece I did for a large youth gathering in January 2026. I sought to address the fears many teens can have, and adults as well, when a new year rolls around. The words served as a flashback to remember how we see life with charity, curiosity, and sensory notions as kids but lose that as we get older.

The second half of the film talks directly to the audience about their morning, identity, and belonging. It closes with an eye candy montage of recent photos of kids in this gathering.
