    Validation: A Short Worth Watching

    I twittered about this award winning short film on Saturday morning, as it was the perfect way to begin the day. I figured I'd post it here for those that care not for the tweet-scene. It's sixteen minutes, which is about fourteen-and-a-half minutes too long to live on the internet, but I managed to make it through and so can you! I believe in you. Your magic is real:

    I saw this when you twittered it, I really loved it. It's so simple but so clever. It actually made me smile and it usually takes a lot to do that.

    I never heard of that short until I read this post but that was a pretty good video. I enjoyed it.

    I ended up sending this to a ton of people. One of them messaged me back saying that they were having a terrible day and this completely turned their mood around! :D

    Thanks kev!

    Wow that video was definitely worth the 16 minutes!
    thanks

    I haven't watched it yet but it's got TJ Thyne from Bones in it (one of my favorite characters of the show). This should be interesting. *play*

    Kevin, you are great. Thanks for posting that.

    That girl reminded me of Natalie Portman.

    Actually well worth the 16+ minutes. You know it's a good film when you sit through the credits, just to hear the song and so you can say to yourself "I watched the whole thing". Man, I'm actually in a better mood for having watched that!

    I liked this little short. I actually do not smile that much and this made me feel I should be way more happy in life and smile more. THANKS for the post.

    That girl was hot, I'd try to make her smile too.

    This just goes to show guys a way to a woman's heart is through her mother, take notes.

    @todd maui boi: Uh, stroking people? Perhaps there was a glitch at YouTube and you watched a different video... ;)

    January 5, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterDeltus

    This is beautiful, totally wonderful. Like I'm crying right now, seriously. Superb.

    "Because YOU are great. YOU are amazing."

    "No one has ever said that about me before."

    Oh, it is love.

    I just kept waiting for the saw puppet to come on-screen, or there to be some awful massacre. lol

    January 5, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterTrice

    whats up with the supposed two minute max for videos? do people have the attention span of a......duuuhhh..oh what? sorry i got distracted..

    January 6, 2009 | Unregistered Commentertodd maui boi

    I watched this when you twiter'd it.

    Fantastic in every way, once I got over the feeling that he was some sort of serial killer, rapist, child molestor, etc.

    Are we THAT jaded that we see someone overly nice and automatically assume the very worst?

    In any case, thanks for posting it. It touched me only in the most appropriate of ways.

    Hey Kevin,

    Thanks for posting that video. I have sent that out to many of my friends. Amazing how 1 compliment can change someones day even their life. Smiling does so much more than you think. So once again, thank you Kevin.
