[Video] “La Tendresse”

La Tendresse
(Tenderness – Caring)
Recorded Live in Victoria, BC at the James Bay Coffee & Books
on March 12th of 2010.

It is also our prayer for humanity:
May this world be blessed in a flood of tenderness & gentleness…

Because without caring, love itself would be meaningless…

Special thanks to our loving friend Marek without whom this clip would have never existed.
Blessed are you for caring for these 2 French Bohemians you once met at the Franco Fest in Victoria!
