Bruce Weaver aka Dharma Dog
Good day EcoSherpa readers. I hope everyone had a fantastic weekend!
Over the weekend we received an email from Bruce Weaver, requesting that we add his website, Bravenewearth.com to our Sustainable Living Directory. After receiving the request I went to the website to have a look and learn more about Bruce and his site.
I typically spend a few minutes checking out the website to ensure that it is a legitimate site and then I add it to the directory. This morning was different in so many ways. I found myself digging deeper and deeper into the site and it led me to many interesting places, from learning about Bruce and his movies to wanting to learn more about the places he has visited. His website has changed my mood completely and I want to thank Bruce for emailing us. You are probably wondering how a website could change my mood? Let me explain…
I woke up this morning to find my main waterline coming into my house leaking. The floor was covered in water and my shutoff valve was leaking beyond repair. Let’s just say my mood turned sour quite quickly and I scrambled to find a solution to my water problems. Three hours later and still no sign of the plumber or the city to come turn off my water (both stated they could and would be here within the hour). The reason for my sour mood is this past summer I had a flood in the basement (a result of a broken water heater) and I spent hours upon hours re-finishing the basement. After learning of my new water issues, I sprang into action re-scheduled all my meetings and decided to read my email to take my mind off the leaky pipe.
Here is where Bruce comes in. Within minutes of being at Bruce’s website, my sour mood changed and I started to feel far more relaxed. Bruce has incorporated music into some of his sections on the site and I must say it sets the mood for viewing each of the sections. Specifically his post on Temple City helped put things into perspective. Music can be a powerful tool and it has the abilty to change my mood quite quickly. The website helped keep my mind off of my plumbing issues and I found myself surfing around the site learning more about Bruce, the places he has visited, and even researching the musicians I was listening to. I will be ordering some new CDs as a result of visiting his site.
Bruce Weaver is a filmmaker and he has produced and directed a variety of diverse DVD productions for independent bands, and Internet TV. His current project, entitled, “Dance with Destiny”, is his own independent feature documentary that examines the future of our planet, and society, from the viewpoint of prophetic messages from indigenous peoples, and other contemporary “seers,” who foretell of a time of great change.
I had a chance to view some of Bruce’s videos and I must say he is a very talented filmmaker and I can’t wait to see his documentary he is working on.
You will find at the bottom of this post, one of the Bruce’s videos, “EcoVillage Tour”. If you would like to learn more about the Farm, visit, http://www.thefarm.org.
If you would like to see more videos from Bruce Weaver, visit Current TV to view them.
Bruce simply wanted Bentley and I to add him to our directory and here I am writing a lengthy post about him. I am inspired by creative minds who are willing to lend their talents and energy to bring about positive change in our World. I want to wish Bruce a safe journey and all the best in completing his latest project.
By the way, if you would like to add your site to our directory, feel free to contact us, or simply add your link to the appropriate category and we’ll approve it (assuming it relates to our overall theme). Once again, we do not at this time require a reciprocal link (ignore that box).
