Seeing is believing

I want to change the way we look at everything

I want to change the way we watch what we watch. 

I want you to sit down, don't speak for a little while- just open your eyes.

I'll open your mind.

They say seeing is believing. And I believe that. 

To hear, you must listen. Comprehend, understand the language, speak back, converse. 

To do, you must do.

And to think you must think. 

But to watch... just sit back, and open your eyes. 

I will show you how we can change lives. 

I will show you how opinions can be changed. 

I will show you a captured piece of the world in a way that was not seen before. 

If seeing is believing, I will help you to see. 

To believe is left to you. 

And in what other way can millions of people be brought to tears?

Can millions of people feel for a dozen people?

Or even just one?

I want to change the way we watch what we watch.
