  1. All these stories are amazing❤❤

  2. We need more heartwarming stories. The world is so horrible

  3. I miss my child hood best friend!

  4. I really love the theme of the documentary, and now I must watch it! I was raised by older parents, and now they are both with the heavenly father, but when I tell you, there is such a blessing, and hearing their stories firsthand. That’s something my peers were not able to receive, and I saw the benefit as I got older.

  5. BEAUTIFUL MOVIE 🎥 ❤☝️✊👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💙💙💙💙💙💙❤

  12. Instead of shaving your heads which doesn’t do anything but maybe tell YouTube to change their policy to allow videos showing 2:32 evidence that actually have a chance to help treat cancer that isn’t “certified” by the people who probably gave you the cancer in the first place

  13. Goose bumps and a big smile.

  14. G. Ở. D. BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY. WHAT A WONDERFUL, SHORT FILM I PRAY AND HOPE THAT YOU GUYS ARE CHOSEN TO WIN AN OSCAR. THE SHORT FILM IS NOT JUST A DOCUMENTARY. IT IS A TRUE TESTAMENT ON MANUFACTURES ABOUT WHAT IT IS LIKE TO BE ASIAN AND AGE GROWING IN GRACE AND FAMILY SO I HOPE THE OSCARS ARE AWARE THAT THEY NEED TO UNDERSTAND THIS IS A TRUEshort biography of life in a family unit. Congratulations.
