One YouTube user thought of a creative product to ring in the New Year, and he's been working on it since January 1st, 2014.
Ben Schmidt has been garnering some attention lately with his One Word Per Day Reflection on Time video. Everyday for one year, Schmidt recorded himself speaking one word. Filmed in various spaces from his bedroom to the snowy winter streets, Schmidt documents the transition that our environment and ourselves go through in the span of a year.
“The passing of a year does not only makes us one year older, but one year wiser as well.”
The production is two minutes and 11 seconds long, and in that time frame, Schmidt discusses a number of topics, and from that, a variety of positive messages can be extracted from his words. In the midst the jumble of life lessons learned throughout a year, time will continuously march forward. Despite our need to push time ahead or hold onto to the past, we are all controlled by time.
Schmidt brings his video full circle by ending the production with a countdown into 2015.
