A Healing Machine for Mary

Gravity Was Everywhere Back Then, a film about a very special house, is showing at DiverseWorks in Houston through this Saturday:

Gravity Was Everywhere Back Then from Brent Green on Vimeo.

Gravity is  about a Leonard Wood, a man who tries to save his wife, who's dying of cancer, by building his home into a vehicle for her healing. In this trailer for the film, filmmaker Brent Green says after Wood was moved into a nursing home, the house was demolished because "it was the only house on the block that didn't look like every other house on the block."

Which immediately put me in mind of this book:

"My house is me and I am it. My house is where I want to be, and it looks like all my dreams." If you're gift buying for kids this season, go pick up a copy.
