Was unable to find a thread on this, and I wanted to share with you all.

So I just finished watching this video and had one of those moments
that made me really stop and think.
It really is sad for the people that do so much harm to themselves, not
only physically, but even more mentally.
I think if every human soul on this planet were to view this video and
just take a step back, find a mirror, and truly look deep down within
themselves...

Hope you enjoyed the video and tuned into the positive note!
I met Nick 3 years ago where he presented at a high school close to me. I've never seen someone or heard someone who spoke quite like him, his words
can instill you with hope no matter the situation you're in.
I think it's an inspirational video with a positive message for those that watch it.
The only thing about it that I don't like is the "think your life is hard? Well look at this guy!" theme. Does having - or not having - arms
and legs make you happy? I wonder what this guy's spirit looks like without the physical form? Probably much happier (more complete) than the average
person.
People these days focus so much on the physical. What you can't see (spirit, mental health, positive energy) might be more important with what you
can see. I think this guy is a prime example of that.
And I mean that in the sense of him being completely radiant with positivity.
In these days of miserable headlines and gloom wherever you look, it is incredibly heartening to know that we, as a species, have such profound
ambassadors in our midst.
The vid made me cry, by the way, but in a good way.
