"Midnight" by Salomon Ligthelm
I'm a high school counselor---and I can tell you that the examples in this video are NOT exaggerated. These are all real life situations that we come across EVERY day.
country roads
take me home
@@somebody2254 lol
ratio
We don’t give 2 fucks
No words can describe the emotions this video brings to surface...Imagine a world filled with empathetic people!
Such world doesn't work
Ich kenne das von mir persönlich. Ich bin Jhrg 1958 und so gross geworden.
I'm a 10 year old girl, most people won't read this, but some will. My mom suffered depression and anxiety growing up. She'd sit down and tell me stories of what happened like her parents and stuff, each sentence that came out of her mouth made me feel very sad. My mom works her butt everyday to keep me and my brother happy, and if I don't get what I want, I'm still appreciated to have her on this earth because she's doing bad. I love my mom very much, and this message goes for everyone. Please and I mean please, respect your mother, love her, treat her like she's a newborn baby, because one day she's gonna go and your gonna regret mistreating her.. You guys may not think I'm 10, but I try using good grammar when I do speeches like this. Have a wonderful day and thank you for reading. -Angelina 🖤
Edit: My birthday is on Halloween, Oct. 31! 29 more days until my birthday. 🎉
Please turn 13 .
I was one of the students in this video and I commend Dr. Ayers for bringing these things to light. A principal that knew, loved, and cared about everyone in our school. Glad to see so many have received the message so well!
Hugs n Love To You Sweetie. Xo. ☮️
Stay encouraged. You can make it.
It's so difficult hearing people talking about their families in school, and how they go hang out with their friends after school. Than I'm here living with just my mom trying to find a part time job to help save money because she has cancer. This is definitely a video I can relate to on a personal level, beautiful job.
good for you.
you still alive homie?

Yeah we all go through shit. People are just so damn mean
no
Somebody hm?
Thank you Austin for your assistance in helping me to get the correct file to show this at my church. It was a blessing and an awesome tool in getting people to open up and to understand that we face challenges in our lives but we do not have to be victims of them, that we are not alone in our fight. Also, that we should not be so quick to judge others on the outside not knowing and understanding their experiences that may have shaped who they are. It gave us a look of what's going on beneath the surface. There is more than meets the eye. We all have and put up a facade while things are lurking within. This truly blessed many people in my church. Thank you for sharing.
THIS HAS TO BE ONE OF THE BEST VIDEOS I HAVE EVER SEEN. ALL EDUCATORS MUST SEE IT. THANK YOU AUSTIN!!
Such a very POWERFUL and moving testament to the point, where you REALLY don't know what a person is feeling, nor thinking, and if you TRULY knew their individual situation/circumstance, how would you approach them, and would your demeanor be that of compassion, as it should be? I for one will take this video to heart, and pass the message along….Austin, THANK YOU so much for allowing us to view and comment on this AMAZING awe inspiring film.
Very powerful, I definitely teared up a lot. I've realized that when I see other people in a negative light, it's really my *own* negativity that I'm experiencing has little to do with how they are as a human. It's important to remember everybody is human, and treat them as such. :)
This is a great video, I work in a Juvenile Detention Center, and it's so true every one is going through something and if people only knew.
holy crap, the accuracy in this. Absolutely amazing video.
I have experienced most of these people's situations at one point in my life. So it is not only that people go through hardship, you never know when you are going to be in that situation. Thank you for making this video. It was a very powerful message.
Amazing video!! I've been showing it to all of my students. So powerful and meaningful :-)
POWERFUL!
Wanted to cry...so moving, touching, gave me goose bumps.
Thank you
Absolutely the best video I've seen that really explains what these kids face today.
Was shown this by my teacher last week and the more I look at this, the more I realize how these little things we think about like certain mistakes from the past is nothing compared to what all these other people have to deal with on a day to day basis.
Very powerful and insightful. Each of us carry some form of stress while trying to get through life. This brief clip helps remind us of that. Some people may not show it and we may not see it in them. Fact is, we all do in some form that will affect our day, the choices we make, how we will communicate to others, how we do our job, how we perform in school . This is why KINDESS MATTERS.
During life's struggles we never can imagine what our students encounter when they are not in school. Caring is very important as a teacher.
This was a very thoughtful, beautiful short clip. Thank you for sharing, it made me cry. Powerful - I felt a wave of empathy for everyone in this clip. Thanks :)
Bravo...simply Bravo. Students...Austin...Mr. Ayers. Your courage is something we haven't seen since...2009.
Great film. Thank you.
I’ve been through a lot in my life myself and I can relate to a lot of these things but that doesn’t change the way a person feels about what they’ve been through in life.
We saw this at homeroom and everyone dropped everything and just starred at the tv, motionless.
Nimak250 sameee. Today 😭
Thank you for making this video. It is 100% true and there are so many more severe things these kids are dealing with. If we could all just keep in mind, everyone has something going on that affects their attitudes or abilities to learn. If we could all just treat each other better.
So well done. Every one has a story, and is going through something of which you have no idea.
My GOD🙏🏾it’s real,being a Cafteria cook,I have spoken to a lot of my babies that have been through those situations,it’s my first time seeing this,I CRIED😢😭😭. I don’t have much,but anyway I could help,come to me.love you all.Cafteria mama 😘
wow this video speaks to me. Every person is going through something, it takes a community to end the problems at home. Support anyone you emet and be postive as much as possible.
As a young teenage empath myself... It's hard for kids like them. And for adults. And for animals. I've experienced many things as an empath... different emotions... feelings... visions..
We are highly sensitive beings... able to connect with so many others... we are open to the world, as helpers and healers, and protectors. It's complicated to explain.. but then again we are truly complicated beings. I wish I could explain myself now, but maybe when I actually understand everything, including myself, better.
As for the video, just seeing kids or adults like that through the eyes of an empath... That empath might know something isn't right... or maybe just "know things".
I like it, it's kind of emotional to me. Thanks for it. (:
This is a great film!! It makes you think about people. Love them as He loves us!! Great job!!
Love this. Great Film. praying this goes viral. hitting SHARE.
Same
The whole world needs to see this video.
This video makes me cry everytime I see it and Oh gosh, as a teacher I can say this is very real.
Thanks for the video. I’m a middle school counselor and showed this to our kids as I’m doing a lesson on empathy. Very powerful!
Love the message being sent! Wish this was around for me as a teen....
Awesome Video! I'm a school counselor and I plan on sharing this with my students.
Powerful. I can't wait to share this with my staff at school. Thank you for doing this...
Thank you so much for this everyone needs to watch. This is so true
Great Short, very moving.
Wow. Very powerful & eye-opening.
brought me to tears from start to end
...your a great man Dr. Ayers!
Wow...great video...I cannot wait to share with mt teen groups...Thank-you for making this available!
this is great..wow
Can't wait to share this.
Empathy is an attitude of love and compassion, an act of the will. It isn't easy putting others before self, but that's why I am continually, in the WORD so that I can channel that kind of Love. Sure, I don't always do things right but I never stop trying. Thank you Austin Wideman. What inspired you to create this film?
I watched this at school and I cried
I love this
I watched this at school today almost cried
Same here, I didn't even say a word when I saw this in my 5th period Language Arts class, because of how shocked I am
Same here
Same here... Almost makes me wanna hug someone...
oh nice
Great work !
This is such a nice adaptation of the Cleveland Clinic video, well done!
My student enjoyed your video and we talked about empathy in class today
Wow 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Excellent
Yo, SHS people where you at
We watched this for one of our anti bullying meetings today. Unfortunately very few people cared.
It's sad too just the way of the world..but I care, it least someone has too. :(
Nice job! It hits hard…I have students in very similar (and worse) situations right now.
My Language Arts teacher showed us this video at school and I cried :((
This was real and deep
I'm a School Counselor and used this video to introduce an SEL discussion to 8th graders. It is so real and I like that it includes adults. Middle Schoolers are a tough crowd and this is so disarming and engaging that they can begin to access empathy for each other.
I like to follow it up with Brandi Carlile's "The Joke" video:

I saw this at my school for a pride thing and I really think only few people cared, it's such a shame.
HHS people represent
MY CLASS SAW THIS

Our Youth relate to this. Thank You - Canine Assisted Learning with help from artists like you
Is there a version of this that is more acceptable to show to 2nd -5th grade?
What is the copyright on this video?
Can this be shown and live streamed at school board meetings? What permissions are needed?
I feel empathy for the pigs in factory farms.
Nicki Rhododendron glad this comment is getting likes.
Dorian Day lol only 5 likes tho
Nicki Rhododendron nice
I shared this with my high school staff. It was powerful! I am trying to share it with my advisory council but I it reads that it is not available to share. Can anyone help?
This is excellent. But it would help dyslexic folks if you also have audio of peoples voices speaking the words on the screen. 🙏
wow! This is amazing.
I sent this to my sister I said this is sad she said omg it is finnaly somthing true what you say
And we don't talk about these problems. We just talk on the job haha
Amazing Video!
Amazing Video! "Do to others as you would have them do to you." -Luke 6:31
Is this a creative commons video? How would I go about getting permission to use this in a Wikibook page I am creating for a college class?
Who else is here because of "Wellness WEDNESDAY"
very moving and a little depressing
Amazing Video! "Do to others as you would have them do to you." -Luke 6:31
Acupuntura 😎🥵🤑
We watched this in school today and everyone was motionless
This is sad but why is the camera doing that? 💀💀

why is this so damn depressing?
Hi
Empathy = Bernie Sanders

psychopaths have insanely high level of empathy. but they use this informations for use the other person for their advantage
I think what you mean to say is insanely high level of unmanned "emotions". They just don't care and hence no empathy toward others. But yes, I agree with you. They stalk the world like a prey and then attack when they have gathered all information.
Sad:(
hahahahahaha

SHIT!!!!
a white person made this 49 seconds
Keep your problems to yourself.
This is absolute tripe! The government school in Wichita Ks made my teacher wife sit through this as though she doesn't already know the kids have problems. We all have problems. Whoever made this crap has an overload of estrogen and needs to be held underwater. Good grief - this is total BS. What a pant load!
And people like you make our world Awesome. I hope you have a wonderful day thinking that everybody in this world is as awesome as you and your wife. Empathy is alive and well in the Smith household, as you're a prime example.
Very nice job at actually being logical and not falling for this bs excuse for a system
i think this is fake
