Israel - "The other is me"

At first there was nothing, all was dark and boring, everyone was sad, and the discipline spreads the sorrow all around. A colorful joyful child has arrived, and drew everything and everyone, the people, the classroom and the atmosphere with happiness and love


Once I met a different mate,
my heart told me, we are the same.
Maybe he looks unique, or even bizarre ,
and we are not from the same home town.
I realized how nice he is,
and learnt a lesson, a precious mean:
One speaks words, other
uses the sign language
This other is me, I am the other, we all different but have so much of the other
We got many gifts from mother Earth,
while others lack the prosperity that we have.
We cannot take them as granted, we have to
Cherish and value every minute every day.
This other is me, I am the other, we all different but have so much of the other
Some children see the beauty of our world,
others just feel the colors or imagine the sounds.
So thank the good and even the less.
And accept warmly the other mate.

According to our tradition, you should discover your inner beauty . A candle might light
 thousands of candles, and never loses a bit, so our beauty, happiness and qualities we should share with others
We are all different in some way, unique or even bizarre, but our character or even one thing we good at, is our strength and a spark to be proud at. 
Happiness and joy, friendship without any criticism is the way to enrich all of us.
No matter which nationality or religious, we are being defined by, we are all equal, we are all the same
We all have to accept each other and avoid isolation or alienation of others.

The song, lyrics and melody had  been written and composed by two sisters, Maya and Osher Nachom,  7 and 10 years old, whose beloved grandmother got a stroke which effects her ability to speak or express herself properly, but still the world is beautiful, cheerful and full of friends who want to comfort and support.

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!- FROM ISRAEL

What a nice and happy entry!
There's so much to see and enjoy in your video. Thank you for letting us see so many different school activities! The choreography and the video are brilliant.
I dare predict a top 10 rating.
Well done!

Steffen is right, the video is quite superb. It was always going to be interesting for me to see how last year's champs followed their 2013 entry.
What can be said? The children sing beautifully, there is an amazing range of activities shown from your school- I did enjoy seeing the dancers outside while the cars drive by in the city behind- and there are some outstanding musical skills displayed.

Wonderful!

Hello dear friends from Israel,

Brilliant video! First of all, for the message you want to transmit. Tt brought tears to my eyes to read about who wrote the lyrics and the reason.

The special effects are also very nice. And the voices and the dance are excellent. Congratulations.

Good luck from Canary Islands, Spain.

Hi Israel,

After last years fully deserved victory, you come with a new very high quality song and video!

I like this song very much. The melody and the singing are excellent, and the message is one that everyone should know!

It's very nice to see how life looks like when living in Israel. It's much more colourful than I had expected!

Definitely one of my favorites!

Kind regards,

Dave from Belgium

It is amazing to see that young girls understand and express the main idea that adults and leaders around the world still don't. Well done and good luck to all countries.

Well done ! Great honor for Israel! Its a great business card for Israel - to send to the world so everyone will see the high values & education we give to all the children in Israel, that we accept all kinds of differences & enlarge every child's benifits! Great work of the school's team - Children, teachers & managment! Proud of u !!

ילדים יקרים
מאוד נהניתי לעבוד אתכם ולראות איך אתם השקעתם והגעתם למה שהגעתם.
הקליפ שלכם היה מקורי ומיוחד ושיקף את שיתוף הפעולה ואת קבלת השונה בבית סיפרנו. המיוחד בקליפ שהוא מקורי והוכן על ידי תלמידי בית הספר ואנ מאוד גאה בכם.
