Lighting Candles: Caine's Cardboard Arcade

This video by Nirvan Mullick is everything that is right with the world...and the power of social media.

The star of the video, Caine Monroy, is imaginative and innovative and entrepreneurial. His father (who let him take over his auto parts shop and build this amazing arcade) is patient and supportive and just all-around awesome. Nirvan Mullick, the filmmaker, saw a beautiful story and shared it with all of us. Everybody wins in this story...just like in Caine's Arcade!

I'm gonna stop yapping (for once)...this story tells itself so beautifully. Enjoy this one, my friends...it's the sweetest!

PS - All the information about Caine and his arcade can be found here. This site includes a donation link for Caine's scholarship fund. In the 5-6 minutes that it's taken me to put the post together, total donations have gone up about $300...like $1-5 at a time. I'm excited for our industrious friend Caine and his promising future.

And information about Nirvan, the filmmaker, is here. This guy makes my heart happy. Hooray for him and what he did with this video. :)
