Will Smith Connect with Conscience and Nature in Pole to Pole

If someone told you that Will Smith was hosting a docuseries where he cut scales off of an Anaconda, dragged gear in freezing temps across the North and South Pole, dug water out of the desert and jumped off a bridge in the Himalayas, one would think it was a sitcom pitch right?  Well, baby needless to say, its real and a chronicled cinematic journey Smith embarks upon to find the real meanings of life.  In the process, he discovers that in order to fully experience life one has to experience death.

Pole to Pole gave him an opportunity to have a reflective journey into inner peace through world discoveries following the most traumatic event that destroyed his professional career and challenged his personal life. His vulnerability and sense of humor make the series fascinating to watch and stay hooked for the first episode through the last.

As a Buddhist, challenging obstacles is something we do best and allows one to consciously leave the past behind and embrace the present to prepare for the future we want and deserve.

One of the most memorable and heartfelt moments was when Smith was attempting to take samples of ice in the South Pole.  Realizing the heartbreak of the scientist who had failed her mission partly due to waiting for him to jump under the ice and watching him put his ego to the side for the greater good speaks loudly to the character he has as a human being.  Of course, there are those movie star moments that quickly get put in check by those around him, which are simultaneously humbling and hilarious.  It is with much sincerity that Smith found all the answers his soul was searching for and that the realization of these quest have shown him that actions always have consequences.  Especially when it comes to our planet and how we are going to continue to save it for all of humanity moving forward.

Pole to Pole is an eye opening quest into a multitude of civilizations who are struggling to survive in the purest forms possible.  Let’s get on board in helping our planet and fellow human before it’s too late.
