Thank you Justine & Michael 💚
When we talk about gestures of love, the most common ones we think of are hugs, kisses, or simply the words, “I love you”. But not everyone expresses love in the same way. And often, cooking a good meal for someone is an important gesture of love.
We cook with our hearts as much as with our hands, because when we cook for other people, it's to make them happy and content. And possibly the greatest payment that you could receive for your efforts is seeing the people at the table, enjoying what you’ve prepared for them.
So the next time you sit at the table, be thankful not only for all that has been prepared for you with time and care, but also for that person who loves you, who thought about you with every stir of the spoon, with every dash of salt, with every teaspoon of oil. We should take a moment to appreciate all that they've done for us. They deserve it. And gratitude is a form of love too!
Filmed in Singapore.

In collaboration with iNous, we recently released a beautiful deck of 52 cards - each card containing a quote from one of our films, paired with the activating visual muses of Lanon Prigge. The aim of this deck is to rekindle child-like curiosity and creativity, helping to navigate the shared waters of our human experience with grace and joy.

Who is Reflections of Life? We are Justine and Michael (previously known as Green Renaissance). We use our passion for filmmaking and our love of storytelling, to remind our audience of one simple truth – that we are all human. The more that we understand and believe in this interconnectedness, the more we will treat ourselves, one another, and planet earth with a greater sense of compassion.
