  • I know there's many of you who have not yet fully processed your traumatic past experiences, many of you who do not have a clue on how to go about doing that. The purpose of this video is to encourage others to do just that and provide an example that you can try out for yourself. This video is not about proving the existence of God. It is about the power of building a pattern of thinking positively, however that may look like for you.
    I am fully aware that what I went through in the past and the people I encountered cannot possibly define an entire country or people group. I have forgiven the individuals and do not hold any bitterness toward Korea or Korean people. I love Korea and Korean people.

    thanks daniel,
    im from south korea
    and it was been a long time since i had a class with you as you were english teacher in middle school for 1 year
    i didn't realize how much the korea life was hard to you at that time
    because you always smiled whenever you meet someone
    but as time goes by, getting older,
    i feel like i can understand how you felt that time,
    i just remembered that class you was trying to teach english with pop song
    and you tried to make us sing but no one did that, cuz we were too shy at that time
    so i thought you got annoying a little bit, and you told me "why you guys didnt do anything,
    i'd tried my best. that impressed to me a lot, of course in Positive way
    and nowadays i understand how much it is a hard to you
    even if I'm korean sometimes it was too weird to judge each other too much
    i'v been aus for 1 years before 1 year ago, i felt so much thing and came back to korea
    and i got a little bit pressure like you though im korean, and i watched your video
    it was so much impressive for me ,
    im sure this story's gonna help a lot people
    i hope you'll get more good youtuber to the god
    and thanks god as well
    have a nice day teacher

    this was, and this is the exact problem in south Korean Teen culture. It just seems like they don't accept any differences. They never try to help the minority, and joins the majority everytime fearing themselves being the minority. I want the next generation of our country to change. May God bless you, and maybe pray for me to be able to change this country, that is my dream.

    I'm guessing all the people who disliked this did as soon as they saw religion get into it. See... whether you believe in God or not, it might be the only thing that helps people get through life and in that case it really shouldn't bother you if someone's religious. You should be glad it helped them.
    I'm not even religious myself but gah... I really can't believe the people who would dislike this

    At the end of this video, I was crying tears of joy! It's so inspirational and motivational. I can relate to you, I was born with a hearing disability where the left ear wasn't fully grown on the inside and my right ear was somewhat fully grown. I do wear hearing aids, but over the time of highschool, I was really ashamed to wear them. And because I didn't wear them for so long, they gradually became expensive and my hearing has gone bad. As I get older, I might even lose my hearing. I regret my actions I did as a child, but I know that in the future, God will help me someday, and that hopefully his help will make me help someone in return. I loved listening to your story, it made me happy! 😊

    Daniel, thank you for sharing your trauma in the past to everyone that cares you. I was once bullied, and it left perpetual scars in my heart. Now you became so successful and popular. I wish I will be one like you, to believe that He is always standing by our side.

    You made me cry so much. First for the unthinkable horrible experience you had to endure. And how it is possible for little kids and humans make so much harm to one another. And after, beacuse of the powerful message you are sharing. First, thank you for having the courage and heart to give the message, and second for knowing all that had a purpose and meaning by being seen with the eyers of light and love. Many blessings... thank you again. And btw, really cute drawing skills.

    I feel you so hard. I'm only 12 and Korean. I lived in Canada for 7 and a half years. When I came to Korea.... Some guy told me that I wasn't good at Korea. One friend in Canada told me to die in a hole. Everyone has become better, but I still get bullied in some ways. Everyone says the past is in the past. But some memories will stay in you. But you can let them free with a little help c:

  • @HeiiH
    @HeiiH Před 8 lety

    When I was 5-6 years old I also had pretty traumatic experience in my kindergarten where the teachers used to use physical power and mental power to restrain me. For them I wasn't very easy kid to deal with(they were used to old Soviet time educational techniques that didn't really work on a kid like me). I don't remember all of what happened. Some of the memories my brain has just "deleted". But even then...It took me years to get over. More than 12 years to actually feel like the person I was before that kindergarten.
    What helped me wasn't councling but my close friends, family and teachers at the music school who encouraged me.
    What actually helped was that I understood my shyness and insecurities, anxiety etc came from those memories. I used to be so lively, active little girl. all I wanted to do was to sing, dance and play. But after that kindergarten I became very shy and anxious. Scared to stand up, scared to say anything, scared of authorities, literally. Older people scolding me was like a nightmare.
    But just understanding where this all came from helped a lot. And without support from others I would have never got there really. So I think that all you need is a support and realization. It doesn't neccessarily have to be guided by anyone spiritual.
    Best of luck Daniel! :)

    Thank you so much for the video Daniel. I have been a huge fan of your art since I found it in 2011. Now I have a new found respect for you. Sharing traumatic experience publicly sounds scary yet can help people in such a spectacular way. Especially when you've found such comfort in God and are willing to share that comfort with others despite others who ridicule you for it.
    A girl that I loved passed away right before I was to serve a two year mission for the church of Jesus Christ. It was the hardest thing I had ever done but I still went so that I could share with others that comfort in God I felt. I am now studying psychology and want to help other people who struggle with lose. I have also always wanted to produce CZcams videos for fun but perhaps I can do more. This video has inspired me to actually pursue my creative ideas but also with the intent to reach out to those who are suffering. Thank you :) a city on a hill can not be hide. Thank you for sharing your light!

I do agree, some of the people there were really racist and they can be SOO RUDE, but I just ignored them, and I had fun! It's hard for me to fit in too, i feel as if I will never fit in, because I'm mixed, and I'm yet to find someone who is the same race as me
