First Aid Kit The Lion 39;s Roar Videos
Cristoforo Kanoy
"And I'm a goddamned coward / but then again so are you," the sisters sing in the song's plaintive chorus. "And the lion's roar, the lion's roar, has me evading and hollering for you / and I never really knew what to do." Those few lines set "The Lion's Roar" apart as more than just a pretty song; it's also a piercing ballad about the pain and frustration of lost love.
'The Lion's Roar' was written during a U.K. tour when we drove through a very dramatic moorland in Scotland. During the tour, we listened a lot to Townes Van Zandt in the car. We were inspired by this mystic scenery, as well as Townes Van Zandt's beautiful melodies. By far our darkest song to date. It was the first song we wrote for the new record, and we chose to name the record after it. 'The Lion's Roar' marked a new stage in our songwriting, and the mystic feeling of this song came to characterize a big part of the new record.
Islands of Sanity Meaning Conference, Brighton U.K.
November 2017
This was an audience of bright, committed and hopeful activists focused on using innovative approaches in business to create large scale changes. I felt the need to caution them against being motivated from the hope of accomplishing these goals and instead to do their work beyond hope and fear, clear that the work is necessary and good no matter how it turns out.

As I reflect back on my experiences in Korea, it was where I first learned to deal with a culture that was truly foreign, but to which I became very acclimated in the 2.5 years I served there. It was also where I learned that beneath our varied cultural manifestations, we are all humans with the same basic wants and values. When we left Korea, my friends and I agreed that after this, we could go anywhere and feel comfortable. And I did.

Each of these is a testimony to the creative brilliance of us humans. As the world continues to darken, I increasingly find solace and delight in these and other videos that remind me the human spirit cannot be extinguished.

How Wolves Change Rivers
I know of no better example of how ecosystems work with their great chains of interdependencies. This video (a BBC production) explores the remarkable changes in Yellowstone National Park, including the return of streams, because of the reintroduction of wolves.

First Taste of Chocolate
This video is startling, as it brings into our awareness that the people who work in the cocoa bean fields in the Ivory Coast have never tasted chocolate. They are delighted by the experience; I was appalled that they had never tasted the fruits of their labors.

Spending time in nature is powerful. We as humans may not always be able to grasp its true power but every now and then, if we are open to it, we are able to get just a glimpse of how nature can have a profound effect on our lives. It may be the overall experience of a safari or even just the simplest moment of realization that has an everlasting effect.
Over the years I have been lucky enough to have many moments of realization, some big, some small but all have helped me in some way or another along my path in life. However, there is one that seems to be recurring, no matter how many times I experience it, I am humbled by its power and the effect it has on me, and I am sure I am not the only one who feels this way. There is nothing quite like being near a lion when it calls.
Could it also be that the rasp of a leopard, the rumble of an elephant, the rutting impala or even the bellowing of a buffalo, have some sort of effect on us that we might not be aware of? Ultimately I think just being in nature and being open to its powers has the ability to heal us all.
Absolutely Tayla there is healing in nature from these magnificent animal sounds. Who could not say they did not get emotional when hearing a lion roar, or the bellowing of a buffalo. It just does something to your inner being. There is so much emotion overwhelming you at that moment and you also become speechless. Being in nature is a honor and a privilege to be treasured for ever.
The way you described the first time you heard a lion roar is exactly the same experience I had the first time I was privileged to hear that magnificent sound and feel the vibrations. There is truly nothing quite like it. Thank you for sharing this.

The first time it happened I thought (wtf!) it was a movie clip from a youtube window that I didn't close... or something explainable like that. But when it happened the 2nd time and I didn't have any browsers open then I started to wonder that there may be something wrong. It was a startlingly realistic 3 or 4 second lion (or other huge cat) roar.
