I thought he was working out to impress the older lady. Nope. He was doing it so he could lift his granddaughter to put the star on the tree. Beautiful! Merry Christmas from Texas everyone!
Lol a big fat raise. Its inspiring no matter your age. You want to be part of it. Or already feel like a part of it, it might be intentionally nostalgic!? Thats what's amazing! 😍
He didn't change from the beginning to the end. It's an advert with an actor. Not real. Why can't people feel this way about the real thing. Our Heavenly Father LORD God who created the Light so we could be and that man could act. Everyone wants the fake reality. Crying over something that isn't real. While our Heavenly Father has given everything to show us what's real. All He wants is His Children back. When will people realise what's going on in the world today. This is a great divide of the light and dark. Good and evil. Time people got their head out of what's not real and looked at what is. There's going to be a huge awakening soon. One big divide of light and dark. May We be considered worthy. Love and Peace 🕊️💌🕊️🙏🏻
Shows your healthy and have a heart sweet heart.mine died at 57 as did my dear sister at 57 every christmas is a memorie but thier there in our hearts.xx
Well this is the day after Christmas. I’m 77 and have no grandchildren of my own. I do have one son, age 53 and a lovely daughter in-law but no children. This is a truthful, beautiful film on growing old. We all have this decline of body and the film showed his determination to achieve the thought of being able to lift his lovely grandchild. He still a handsome gentleman, but has a terrific mind and spirit to attain his self respect. Bravos to whoever made this film everyone should have a chance to view it during Christmas week till Feast of Three Kings at least, January 6th. Thank you, can you tell I had a tear or two?
I have grandchildren and was lucky to have them all for 10 years at my house.but my daughter came into alot of money and didnt need us any more.keeping grandkids away from you when you have been there since they were born is cruel.dont know why they do it.my eldest grandaughter texts me now at 28 But my tears are the memories left behind
@@jeanettereynolds3151 You're an amazing mom. What you did for your grandchildren is remarkable. They will never forget their happy years with you. Hang in there, God is in the business of restoring relationships. I pray for peace, strength and comfort for you until then. God bless you. 🌺🙏
I'm so sad for you I sadly havnt seen my granddaughters since they were 5..10..15 I know now my first grandaughter is 30 she got in touch recently she has wonderful memories from 15 of xmas and holidays weekends with us as family and we have 2 great grandchildren oldest 8.i cried buckets through a selfish daughter I have lost years with my grandaughters..I could understand if we had done something terrible had a row etc.but my daughter on losing her husband at 32 came ianto alot of money and financial security she moved a boyfriend in after only 3 months.i had to tell her the children needed time as the eldest didnt like it and started to cut her arms.i was shown door and told it's time for her to live her life.i thought maybe after her constant holidays she would settle and realise about her girls.no life was about only herself.today all her children dont live at home.so they not only lost thier dad when the biggest payout the docks ever paid came in.they lost thier mum us and thier cousins.i would like to say when your first grandchild arrives it's most beautiful sight and love overwhelms you.but you realise they are your sons.but wonderful all lost because of money.
What a touching Christmas "commercial". It really isn't commercial at all. The effect that love has on us, when we open our hearts to receive it, changes us forever. Give the gift of your love to others this Christmas. Your heart will be full!
Beautiful! Can’t stop crying. Didn’t think i could miss my Dad as much as I already do until I saw this. Merry Christmas Dad, Christmas hasn’t been the same since you’ve been gone.
Well I did beautiful xmas for my girls then thiers now they couldnt give a shit about thier dad or .myself.i look at my husband who worked 3 jobs to give them everything we didnt.but it's our fault they grew up selfish .greedy parents.but we have each other and our memories noone with all the money they have now.will get the joy of working hard to see thier smiles on xmas morning.they had damn good parents and nan.one day they may think of someone except themselves.
@@jeanettereynolds3151 That's quite sad. I am sorry your children does not seem to have valued what you did for them. Sometimes family can be just like that, no reflection on you at all. Cherish your happy memories, comfort and take good care of each other. Hope you can make some more happy memories for the future.
@@JediJan thank you so much for your kind words we both didnt have a good childhood but one thing I would do again is to love and cherish our 2 .let it be on thier consciences. We know we done best we could.i cherished my mum and dad sadly gone.they gave us little as I was one of 7 but I nursed my mum for 10 yrs miss her everyday.but thank you.
We were poor as dogshit.I had 5 brothers and a loving Mother (thank God), but Dad truly made Christmas magical.For the life of me I don't know how he did it....
I just showed this in conjunction with a brief Christmas service here at the Correctional Facility where I work. More than one resident had glossy eyes on this one. Thank you. This was very well written and acted out. Merry Christmas to all Dec 2020.
Cary Bruce, your comment also made me teary eyed. Although many of these folks had good parents and took the wrong path all on their own, I am sure others took the wrong path because of a troubled upbringing. My wish is that they are all put on the path of compassion, respect and love. Although yours is a tough environment, I hope that the all of the offiicers have it in their hearts to demonstrate these traits.💕
@@jamjar5716 We can only show, through some effort, how others are to interact. The main issue at hand is that we are under scrutiny at all times. Some do not understand that character is who you are when nobody is watching. The issue is showing the residents that you are not the "fake it to make it" individual that they fully expect to meet.

Our Father's Spirit is always there~If you want it then ask~He will give you so much more than a two minute advert can give. He gives eternal life in Him. Peace and Eternal Love. It never goes. 🕊️💌🕊️🙏🏻
You're young yet. I noticed how each time the man's female neighbor saw what he was doing she'd look at him as if she was going to roll her eyes. It tickled me that he wasn't concerned with her looks & by no means deterred. I wanted to cheer him on for his determination & grit.
the oldish man is me and my husband. Taking on climbing the hills on this old farm, not recognizing the old face we see in the mirror. Sadly this year we have no family visits as we are all importantly focused on surviving the pandemic. We keep our hopes and dreams pinned on the future with a goal to be able to spend time together again. Meanwhile we trudge onward on this old farm, somedays using a very old set of snowshoes as we tackle the even older back hills and trails. “Keep moving moving moving.....”
"I think I can" was always a phrase that my mother instilled in us. She loves "The Little Engine That Could"story. You just keep putting one foot down in front of the other. That rings a bell on another movie that I grew up loving. LOL!
Merry Xmas!!! From TO Canada🌲⛄❄️🎁 Stay strong! My Mother is 70 in old age hospital...because she has Lewy Body Dementia. Its bad! We wer told we cant c her 4 a month, maybe longer. Because of another lock down. We know this will kill her. My sisters & i have decided....Wer bringing her home to die....to b surrounded by her family. NOT to die alone. Being loved, touched & held.
@@blackwolf9524 Home is the best place if you're ready mentally and physically. Hospice can take alot of the late term issues out of your hands and alleviate some guilt that will inevitably set in. Best of luck to you, sister.
@@manchu6005 hi.....yes, but here again only 1 of us can b there. My Mother has lost her dignity, it will b hard. But this was my Moms wish....have to honour that. Thank u! ✌️
Yes the UK has had some good commercials. I loved the one about Buster the Boxer dog. My favorite is Sainsbury's "Mog's Christmas Calamity". My granddaughter also loved that one. A few years ago I ordered from England for her, the book and a stuffed cat that looked like Mog.
As an older person, I understand the need to change and change again. This commercial shows the enduring spirit that lives in us all and the determination to get over your own habits and push through to personal victory. Blessings to all concerned.
Gosh! This was perfect. 💯 So well planned in presentation; wait for it sort of feeling 💚 with a real "feeling" shared by the end. Thank you from Atlantic Canada🇨🇦 during the pandemic...the message is so appropriate as well. 👍
I didn't know where this was going, but when it got there it was simply beautiful! If the reason is powerful enough our will can get us there. Just beautiful!
For the love of a child, to see her face light up that grandpa was there, and the apparent emotion in grandpa's face to know he accomplished a personal moment was priceless. 💖💖💖
Our young society forgot about the elderly society who can and are counted by God, but not by young people. Older people have the will to survive and the young generation can learn from this generation because one never knows what the future holds. He worked out to allow his grandaughter to put that star on the tree. That he is still worth and may we take the time at this Christmas to remember that God put an idea through the person to put this out for all of us to remember we all count. You all have a Blessed Christmas and a safe New Year.
Thank you for ruining the surprise of the commercial. You and the other commenters could have expressed your thoughts without giving away the surprise. I began playing the video and without meaning to I happened to see your comment, as it was at the top, before I expanded the screen. Now I see the comment under yours did the same thing. The whole point of these Christmas commercials is the sweet surprise at the end.
@Hanoi Andy ESL I really don’t like when people give spoilers of movies and these types of commercials! Ha. Don’t want to hurt the commenter’s feelings though at the same time so hope I wasn’t too harsh. Actually agree with her sentiment very much and I believe in God and in Jesus Christ as she does. I respect your right to your worldview, we all have a worldview and that right is to be respected. I can understand why you don’t believe in God. Yet I do. It is a faith and a knowing that I have inside that no one can take away and I cherish it. My reason tells me Christianity is what makes sense of life and death. If I were an atheist or agnostic, my opinion would be this: if Christianity isn’t true, it should be. You and I agree on the spoilers! P.S. don’t be too judgemental of the commenter’s religious words or tone. It is her joy shining through, not a lecture. When I gave birth to my son, I experienced a euphoria that gave me a tiny glimpse of what heaven might be like. It was a magnificent sense of well being, marvel at the wonder of existence, recognition of the infinite possibilities of potential that were ahead of me, of my son, of everyone; Joy. I had this for several years, it was a gift that keeps on giving as they say.
@@relaxingmomentsasmr149 Sometimes saying nothing is better than saying anything at all too. You have taken umbrage at such a small thing. People should simply not read comments until after the video in case there is a revelation there. You have now upset another by not showing what I thought was Christian spirit in your comments. What happened to the Judge not lest thou shalt be judged also? A little understanding can be better.
Beautiful..... East Idaho you really have a heart ❤️. Love to you all from this 60 year old gran in the U.K. who wishes she lived in your wonderful community xx
Suddenly........this is where I am. Losing the love of my life after 40 years has taken it's toll. With friends that I've had for over 40 years, we celebrate together with our memories of a wonderful life gone by.
I watched this sitting in the drive through at taco bell and I wasn't prepared for it. The lady at the window watched as my fat ass paid for my order with tears streaming down my face. Well done. I hate y'all. Merry Christmas.
I didn't know what the commercial was about, but soon As his hands went out to pick her up...I lost it 😭. Boy this year's commercials & Secret Santa's have my tears rolling and my heart filled with so much joy...I never think it will all fit, but more goes in ❤️
Great! Grandpas are so wonderful. I was blessed with the best one of all. He was a retired NYPD Lieutenant and the finest man in the world to me. In his 80's he would kneel each night on the cold floor next to his bed to say his nightly prayers.
Thank you, whoever you are who made this video. You inspired my mom who is 79 and for the first time in her life is beginning to slow down. I have been setting up a small home gym in our garage, and getting lots of resistance (I think our health is more important than our cars 'health,' sue me.) Point is today my MOM was out in the garage. She said, "if that old man can do it...." You all made her see that the BEST Christmas present she could ever give us is HER. Thank you. And may 2021 be a happier HEALTHIER year!
So much determination to not give up and be strong 💪 👏 memories to never forget for the kids and family with love ❤️ for a wonderful and happy holidays a very Merry Christmas, amen 🙏
I am 66 yrs old and hauled my treadmill inside with the help of my son yesterday. Decided I was getting complacent and when I did have to exert myself at times, my body would ache the next day. So I have decided to start exercising again. Just some treadmill and stretching and some light weights. This commercial brought tears to my eyes bc I could absolutely relate. Perfect!
Wonderful, was waiting for the woke lecture, and me turning it off early but instead this warmed my heart, and yes, made me quite emotional for the right reasons, memories of Christmas past 🙏
I thought he was working out to impress the older lady. Nope. He was doing it so he could lift his granddaughter to put the star on the tree. Beautiful! Merry Christmas from Texas everyone!
Ms.Cellaneous, good job spoiling it for anyone who might be scrolling through the comments before having gotten to the end of the video!! You suck!!!
@@lisahinton9682 Thank you sweetie. You sound like a lovely person.....NOT!
This commercial is so touching. Whoever had the idea about this story should be given a big fat raise.
Lol a big fat raise. Its inspiring no matter your age. You want to be part of it. Or already feel like a part of it, it might be intentionally nostalgic!? Thats what's amazing! 😍
Make it a Disney Movie
It's made by an Estonian production company (Finnic country in Northern Europe) for Dutch pharmacy company. 🙂
@@carleryk I know that. I'm just saying that it could be Disney film.☺

It was a magnificent sense of well being, marvel at the wonder of existence, recognition of the infinite possibilities of potential that were ahead of me, of my son, of everyone; Joy. I had this for several years, it was a gift that keeps on giving as they say.

Being counted by God means so much more than by any young person. ❤
@@relaxingmomentsasmr149 Sometimes saying nothing is better than saying anything at all too. You have taken umbrage at such a small thing. People should simply not read comments until after the video in case there is a revelation there. You have now upset another by not showing what I thought was Christian spirit in your comments. What happened to the Judge not lest thou shalt be judged also? A little understanding can be better.
Best commercial ... we need more genuine ads like this.
Best thing I’ve watched on CZcams all year! 💕
This is the first ad I’ve given a thumbs up in a long, long time. Thank you so much for making people feel good.
A beautiful little story full of meaning and emotion. Heroes are everywhere there are hearts full of love. Brought tears to the eyes.
We can learn so much from this video. Thank you for this never giving up message.
Beautiful..... East Idaho you really have a heart ❤️. Love to you all from this 60 year old gran in the U.K. who wishes she lived in your wonderful community xx

Wow. Beautiful and touching. Let’s not lose sight of the Reason for the Season. This year and every day. ❤️ 🙏
Suddenly........this is where I am. Losing the love of my life after 40 years has taken it's toll. With friends that I've had for over 40 years, we celebrate together with our memories of a wonderful life gone by.
This was beautiful.
We need more commercials like this one 😍❤️😘 feel good family friendly.,and yes it brought tears to my eyes. So precious 💝
I watched this sitting in the drive through at taco bell and I wasn't prepared for it. The lady at the window watched as my fat ass paid for my order with tears streaming down my face. Well done. I hate y'all. Merry Christmas.
lmao
Hahahahaha...❤️❤️❤️
And Merry Christmas to you, Karson.
It was beautiful!!! Merry Xmas!
Karsen Adams, you are hilarious! Although, I do hope that you explained to the server that your tears were of joy. If you were able to speak at all!!💕
Truly an amazing, touching commercial. Considering there are no words but very powerful emotions and love.

What a touching one there! I cried! Merry Christmas! From Manila, Philippines ❤️
Maligayang Pasko! Or, as we say in Davao City, Maayong Pasko. :)
I didn't know what the commercial was about, but soon As his hands went out to pick her up...I lost it 😭. Boy this year's commercials & Secret Santa's have my tears rolling and my heart filled with so much joy...I never think it will all fit, but more goes in ❤️
Great! Grandpas are so wonderful. I was blessed with the best one of all. He was a retired
NYPD Lieutenant and the finest man in the world to me. In his 80's he would kneel each night on the cold floor next to his bed to say his nightly prayers.
Lost my grandpa's before I ever knew them - my dad just as I joined the military too. But I still bawled like a baby.
Indeed it brings tears to my eyes and a big smile. Thank you. From Quebec - 💘
So heartwarming. Wonderful. Family gives us true purpose.
This is a great video not a commercial! Made me smile then crushed me like a little kid thank you!
This is wonderful. I almost made it to the end without tearing up. Almost. This is beautiful.
I have seen this 4 or 5 times now. Still makes me cry.
Definetly some tears of happiness watching this video. Very well done.
That was wonderful,crying happy tears bringing back great memory .Thank you and God bless 🙏❤
So beautiful. Love will always give us strength ! Merry Christmas to all . 🙏😇🎅🤶❄️🎄💖
Beautiful, just beautiful! It kept my attention and interest right to the heart touching completion 🥰
OMG 😪😪😪 I'm soooooo crying. Its AMAZING what we can do for the love of someone special in our lives. God bless to all
Thank you, whoever you are who made this video. You inspired my mom who is 79 and for the first time in her life is beginning to slow down. I have been setting up a small home gym in our garage, and getting lots of resistance (I think our health is more important than our cars 'health,' sue me.)
Point is today my MOM was out in the garage. She said, "if that old man can do it...."
You all made her see that the BEST Christmas present she could ever give us is HER.
Thank you. And may 2021 be a happier HEALTHIER year!
Wow, that's great! I hope your mom is still at it and getting stronger.
@@FRN2013 - 81 now and has finally decided to retire. She isn’t sure what to do with herself, but I am hoping lots of hikes! Thanks for asking.🤗
Bravo! A story for the ages! Well done.
My eyes are leaking. What a wonderful commercial.
I love this!!!!! I am 66 & it restores your faith. ❤️
So much determination to not give up and be strong 💪 👏 memories to never forget for the kids and family with love ❤️ for a wonderful and happy holidays a very Merry Christmas, amen 🙏
I am 66 yrs old and hauled my treadmill inside with the help of my son yesterday. Decided I was getting complacent and when I did have to exert myself at times, my body would ache the next day. So I have decided to start exercising again. Just some treadmill and stretching and some light weights. This commercial brought tears to my eyes bc I could absolutely relate. Perfect!
*SHAME HE KNEW WHAT TO PREPARE FOR!!!* *WONDERFUL AD!!!*
The moment you reallize "why" it hits your hart and the tears just fill your eyes.
Wonderful, was waiting for the woke lecture, and me turning it off early but instead this warmed my heart, and yes, made me quite emotional for the right reasons, memories of Christmas past 🙏
We're all crying.
Speak for yourself always please. Minding your own business is respectful and freeing.
I just sat here and bawled. Omg. How beautiful is that?❤❤
Very good, made me cry. Dad I sure miss you.Hard to believe you have been gone 12 years,but your with the Lord now and im very proud of you.
