Painting The Future – Tales of Everyday Magic
Jonathan Langley’s life took a devastating turn when he lost his eyesight to a rare illness. Once a successful painter and printmaker, Jonathan now lives in complete darkness, rarely leaving his apartment and angry at the world. When he encounters his precocious 11-year-old neighbor, Lupe, the two form an unlikely friendship. Her cheerful presence shatters his hardened exterior, revealing a gentle man struck by tragedy. Lupe leads him to a fresh perspective by showing him the power of kindness, compassion, and love.
Inspired by the writings of bestselling author Louise L. Hay, Painting the Future reveals how the thoughts we choose create the life we live. On the second floor of a low-income apartment complex loves Jonathan Page. Once an established painter, Jonathon now lives in complete darkness, rarely leaving his apartment and angry at the world. From the courtyard below, nine-year-old Lupe Saldana takes notice of Jonathan. Determined to save up for a dream quinceaera dress, she extends herself as hired help for all the personal errands and daily chores that Jonathan can no longer do himself. Through this proposition, a friendship begins to blossom, and Lupe’s optimistic innocence slowly breaks down the wall of Jonathan’s guarded brokenness.
Painting the Future explores the power of positive thinking in healing past struggles and learning to live a joyful, heart-centred life.
