Just Two Questions

01/24/2025

This one is a little different, so don't miss Mrs. Frances, and her daughter, Janeen McDonald in this darling joy moment! We are *absolutely* thrilled to feature an original soundtrack from Janeen, a Jazz musician, whose voice beautifully accompanies this moment.

'You Are Beautiful' is an appealingly woven tapestry of music and two generations. It is happiness derived from reaching back into your past and finding those gems that make life special, sharing them with others, and bringing smiles to the faces all around you.

The song that Mrs. Frances references in her answer...any guesses for which one it is? Just for context, she is over 80 years old. Let us know in the comments!

Interviewing affable and wise seniors for Just Two Questions may be the most gratifying experience of our lives. Sometimes, when we interview them, we have to ask them a question in an impromptu manner without any planning on their part, due to memory difficulties. Their answer then becomes the first thought that comes to their mind when we ask them such profound questions. So please, extend them some grace/patience and watch through the whole video as we push them to open up further.

Enjoy this Valentine's Day Special from us. Let's get into the mood for love a little sooner!💋💘

Our first lesson for 2025 is short and to-the-point, just the way we like it here at Just Two Questions! You met Mr. Danny when we published his chosen moment of joy 'The Key to Love'. Today, we release his Life's Greatest Lesson, 'Question Everything'. He is a 91 year old, very sharp, War Veteran. He often sits at the Lodge booth at the Farmer's Market here in Wake Forest working hard for his Veteran's organization.

We are thrilled to bring you Mr. Danny's lesson, the one that he chose to share with the younger generation. (At this point we are ALL younger than Mr. Danny!😉). Please enjoy it!💙

Just Two Questions has already had such a profound impact on us and the people that we have had the fortune to interact with through this endeavor. We absolutely LOVE what we are doing!💘

📌We encourage you to please Share this lesson from Mr. Danny and Subscribe to see all the current and upcoming videos! As always, Thank You for your support!

Our friend Danny explains that the most important lesson that he has learned in his life is questioning everything. He reflects on his own personal decision...

On the morning of December 31st, 2024, one of our oldest interviewees, Mrs. Maria, entered eternal rest. The Earth lost a force to reckon with, and God gained a powerful angel. In the considerable footage we have of her, she mentioned wanting to make this heavenly journey soon, so we have taken solace in the fact that she is where she wants to be.

She was undoubtably one of the MOST courageous women we have had the privilege to meet in our life. How many people can say that they have had the opportunity to converse at length with a World War 2 survivor and hero?

Mrs. Maria's train was on the way to the concentration camp at the exact moment that the world war ended. In the years prior and after the end of the war, she went through numerous trials, even putting her life in harm's way for her family.

Forging a connection with Mrs. Maria and her family has been a beautiful experience for us at Just Two Questions. We are grateful beyond what simple words can express.

Rest in Peace, Mrs. Maria. Please look down upon us every once in a while. We will miss you so dearly.

We are privileged to partner with Betsy and Wilson’s Wave to bring awareness to this opioid crisis. Kids, like Wilson, are our future and as adults we must do whatever we can to protect them. We wish them much success in bringing the truth to light!

Wilson's Wave was created in honor of Wilson Moore, a cherished son and friend who tragically lost his life to a suspected accidental fentanyl overdose. https://bit.ly/48qRQIY

Our mission is to raise awareness and prevent further loss while continuing Wilson's legacy of kindness, compassion, and service. Together, we can make a difference. Join us in the fight against the opioid crisis. 💙

Would you like to hear an entire self-help book in 4 minutes tops? The quest for SUSTAINABLE internal happiness is more possible with this latest life lesson. Happiness is not complicated, but it is often convoluted by what surrounds us - what the corporations tell us, what other people tell us to do, or trying to curb feeling down with short-term, expensive appeasement like a spur of the moment escape for some retail therapy. Steve says bring it back to YOU.

Steve's super practical and easy-to-implement approach to looking inside of ourselves can literally be executed by anybody and for any level of scope or goal, personal or professional.

After watching this lesson several times, we began to internalize it and realized that the elements are the perfect embodiment of us and Just Two Questions. Isn't that the coolest thing?

We hope that this awesome life lesson helps you achieve what is most important to you.

As always, if you enjoy our content, please share (you have our blessing😀) and subscribe! Thank you!

Imagine if your child went to sleep tonight, never to wake up in the morning. If you can't, then share this video message. SAVE A LIFE. The time is NOW.

"Fentanyl, which is often hidden in counterfeit pills, is fueling the worst drug crisis in U.S. history. Last year the synthetic opioid killed more than 70,000 Americans." -60 Minutes on CBS
Full video: https://youtu.be/zGi4lCXnP-I?si=Y2r65SEFqFR4REe1

At Happiness Productions, we have only focused on videos of joy and wisdom to spread happiness and connect people from around the world. When we heard of Wilson's death from Fentanyl in early 2024, we reached out to his mom Betsy who is a fellow local, and to our surprise found that this was not just a rare case of accidental poisoning, but an attack on our youth of ugly war-like proportions.

Instead of taking the time to grieve her son's death, Betsy started speaking up louder and harder than any mom should ever have to, so that other precious children like Wilson, would not succumb to the U.S.'s worst drug crisis. We felt that it was our duty to help Betsy bring awareness to this issue. This war on our youth and younger adults, is supplied and fueled by foreign countries. The faster the targeted younger generation knows of its dangers and ways to counter it, the better.

As Betsy says, you have to stop these dealers by not fueling the 'Demand' side of this illegal industry, and that starts with sharing this information with the youth in our communities. So, we ask that you SHARE this crucial video to all whom you know and do your part to bring the awareness. Your small life-saving action of sharing this message will be the ripple that will make great waves.

Special Thanks to Aubrey Miller, for connecting us with Betsy.💙

We get one question a lot! - Where do we find our amazing and non-camera shy interviewees?

Well, firstly, when they have lived a long and fulfilling life, a little camera time does not faze them as much. But, the more direct answer is that we find our interviewees mostly through our daily interactions.

For example, linked here is our latest answer to the Joy question. We met Steve, a very smart and enthusiastic Master Gardener, at the local Farmer's Market where he answers everyone's questions on gardening. While gardening is his passion, in his day job he is a talented Software Developer with one of the world's most successful companies. We spoke for a few minutes about gardening and Just Two Questions, and right away knew that we wanted to hear more from him on his methodical approach to a perpetual state of happiness (which will be released soon as his Greatest Life Lesson).

As our last two answers from Ms. Maria, the WWII survivor, were heavier, please relax and enjoy this light and easy Story of Joy from Steve.

Thank you for your support! We really enjoy sharing these moments with you!

Ivett and I would like to say Thank You for your support thus far for Just Two Questions! We have amazing family, friends and businesses supporting this incredible journey and we are so grateful for them. Our mission is to learn and share the personal, captivating, and rich nuggets of knowledge and joy that we find.

We will eventually have an extensive library of knowledge that can be accessed from anywhere in this world. As of today, we have produced 30 excellent and purposefully short videos for your viewing pleasure! Some are light and others heavy, but all invoke feelings that uplift and connect us all.

Our interviewees have done a brave job putting themselves out there for your benefit and we appreciate them very much.

To mark this success, we wanted to highlight Ms. Bobby. Unfortunately, since we made this video, she has stopped doing what she loved, which is teaching kids musical instruments, due to becoming immobile. We care very much for her health and wish her a smooth recovery so she can continue to do what she loves the most.

Thank you and enjoy.

Ms. Bobby has been teaching students how to play music for over 50 years. One of her most joyous memories is of her one-handed student who is able to learn ...

We had the great pleasure of interviewing a 96 year old Hero and Survivor of World War II, and sharing her moment of joy with you last week. We welcome back Ms. Maria, a fiercely strong lady whose family home was often caught in the crossfire of the World War. In this second video featuring her, watch to know which life lesson and message stood out as the most important for her to share with us. We would like to also mention that before settling in Austria, Ms. Maria was originally from Morobitz, Yugoslavia (the Austro-Hungarian empire split after WW1 creating Yugoslavia). Unfortunately, Morobitz was wiped off the world map during WWII, was never inhabited again, and the region is now officially a part of Slovenia.

We are on a mission to find people's moments of joy and their greatest life lessons, and to share them with you! Are you on a quest to discover knowledge and wisdom in life? Are you curious to hear what brings people joy?
