Give us a break, Open! We're not all techie film buffs

I had so many contemplations between the first exploration and making a video:

On your last tour I felt like maybe I'm holding myself back by not having a decent phone? So I went through the tech-resistance and looked for what to buy. Got one, tried making a video and sending it to you and it got "lost in the ether" so never arrived.

So What? At least I'd tried, quite a revelatory moment, I realised I'd enjoyed it! I now started talking into my phone at least a couple of times a week. Near home, far from home, in my home, anything I was contemplating, feeling, looking at. How to hold the phone? Is my arm long enough? Do I look at the camera or not? What do I say? Well, anything that arises, seems like the place to start!! Just pulling on the thread of creativity. Between Christmas and New Year I went to visit the Singing Ringing Tree, I'd seen a photo of it in my local bank of all places! So that would be why my banking app didn't work and led me into the bank, thank you Universe Else I'd never have visited that incredible place, a real Spirit-lifter in full lockdown, a "forbidden" excursion. What utter and total tosh!!!! NO-ONE CAN KEEP ME FROM EXPLORING THE LAND I LOVE Anyway, I tried editing bits of my film, I had no idea I should have shielded the phone from the wind. Were such loud ripping wind sounds even possible to make a video with? In the end I loved the noise, it seemed to evoke memories of Open telling me about his etheric trip through a black hole, getting shredded more and more and ever more. Just what needs to happen to all the gloopy, dense, stagnant, controlling energy . Perfect! But what to do with the clips I'd put together? It didn't seem to have anywhere to go...

Then yesterday, I could hear your heartfelt plea for us to join you in video making, to express and amplify the energy. Yet I had no pull to go out anywhere, what to do? Last night I decided to trawl through my meanderings of the last couple of months, and there it was, the half-done starting point, and pretty much on topic! So I literally got the creative bug, stayed up all night adding bits and figuring out how to add text etc. Then I even went so far as to learn how to put it on YouTube, I am the original tech numpty, so if I can do it all by watching a few "How To" videos, anyone can. Just start talking to your phone guys!! I got such a sense of satisfaction from it and it literally is all there on your phone, everything you need, in my case just the camera and the iMovie app. (I bought an iPhone 11, just the basic one. Its the last version to NOT be 5G enabled.)

I got even more satisfaction just now, as someone said today is the 21st day of the 21st year of the 21st Century, what a great day to create my You Tube channel and my first video. Feels really auspicious. Thank you Open for all the inspiration. It feels like some kind of 100th monkey effect took place that I could make a video, or maybe its 100th video effect from watching yours

Big love and encouragement to all, time to step up and step out!!!!!!
