Listen to Your Heart

This is a five minute story on the life or family life of Penguins. Plus a little music from Mike Rowland - Listen To Your Heart. It is such a precious and heartwarming video. It is from the anti-drill the south pole people - but that is not what my message is about today.

As I looked at it - I thought how wonderful the penguin community is and how much the blog community is like that. Yes, I did - I admit it. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

THIS, IS NICE . . .

Magnificent!!!
I can't get over how they seemed to gather and pose -- they KNEW they were having their picture taken!
... Oh, and LOVE how the adults interact with their babies :)
.... Did you catch the "youngster" (towards the end) who was standing in front and waving his "arms" -- wonder if he's not their conductor. :)

Lovely little penguin video for us today! I've always loved penguins, so I'm quite happy to be compared with one, but you're right, the blog community is like that, and aren't we lucky to be part of it!!

Wow! I loved this. It was so moving. I have always been a fan of "pen-gwinks" as one of my sons used to call them! And the babies were adorable.

I am very happy to be a fellow penguin in Blog Land with you, Sandie. It truly is a community of fellowship and friendship. It really is a way to celebrate the joy of the Body of Christ.

I marked this post "cool" - thought you'd enjoy the punnery of that!

That is an awesome video. When I was watching it I couldn't help but think that it reminded me of a choreographed dance

Oh so sweet!!

betty said...

This was soo cute!! I liked the simplicity of the music and the pictures of the penquins interacting with each other were so precious!! I can see how you would equate this with the blogging community; I get it!!

LOL, on another side note, son always wanted a penquin as a pet; had to constantly remind him they are not the common pet and probably illegal to have as one!
