Shadow project part 1&2
(the 2nd part, the (hand) shadow show itself is amazing,
around the middle of the video)
Looking at the children and Koyama (celebrity) work so hard is really heartwarming. Basically a few artists are each attached to a certain project for charity, and Koyama's was about learning sign language to connect with 9 kids who are hearing impaired and putting up a finger shadow puppet show with them.
You can see how he was really serious about helping them, considering even the smallest details from their point of view and his willingness to put in 100% effort. Not for success or the amount of money it can raise, but for the kids and their parents.
Fund raising concerts aren't too meaningful sometimes because it feels like they are simply going through the motions, but seeing them put in sooo much effort into helping the disabled in this video really brings tears to my eyes. Putting in our best effort to help others is of utmost importance, giving should come from the heart as well right?

One more video (split into two)
This one is about his visit to a school which trains service dogs to help those who are hearing impaired. The school offers training spots for recluses and the unemployed, I think it's for a good cause. An interviewed recluse said he gained confidence by taking care of the dogs, and that it was easier to open up to them because humans lie but dogs are loyal and stay true to their owner. Basically the setting up of this school benefits:
1) the hearing impaired
2) the dogs picked up from pounds, which would otherwise be abandoned
3) recluses and unemployed not ready to step into the society yet.

"humans lie to each other, but dogs don't lie to anyone"

It's encouraging to know that there are actually people making their little contributions to make this world a better place. Maybe I shouldn't be too cynical about things afterall.
