Literally, it’s just a video of a guy making an ax in a blacksmith shop in Latvia.
Figuratively, it’s a man answering the calling of his soul.
Watching it made me happy.

The joy of making things. As I get older, I find it’s about all I want to do.
Well, and grow things.
Thanks, Harvey.
Guys like that have done the work, have acquired the skills, and know their worth.
If you aren’t that guy, be sure you know one, and stay on his good side, because someday you’ll need him.
Last night I changed a tire for a lady.
You’d think I was a wizard, the way she thanked me for my skillzs.
Shucks, ma’am, t’warn’t nothing. (tips hat, rides towards sunset, music rises)
Watching a craftsman like that reminds me (with shame) of all the projects I’ve started and never finished.
He didn’t make that.
