Love Yourself [SYTC]

○ HD and subtitles (English, French and Portuguese BR) are available.
❝The best way that I could get back at all those people who made fun of me, who teased me, who called me ugly, who called me a monster was to make myself better and show them: You know what? Tell me those negative things and I'm gonna turn them around and I'm gonna use them as a ladder to climb up to my goals.❞
This is my video for the last round of the Show Your Talent hosted by xXVampireGirlXx and Katherine Pulkrab.
I'm deeply sorry for any mistakes or glitches, I was kind of rushing with this.
I added English (for those whose native language isn't English, so they have a little bit of trouble with understanding what is being said on the video, or anyone else that needs it) and Portuguese (BR), because these are the only languages that I know how to speak. But I really want to make this video accessible for more people, so if you're from any other country and you'd like to help me with putting more subtitles, please PM me!
*a HUGE thanks to xDancingFirex for translating it to French ♥
The main font used in the video is actually my own handwriting! (i know it looks like it's from a 5 year old), because as I mentioned down below, I wanted to send a message to everyone in this last day of 2015. So I decided to sent it with my own handwriting!
This video is very very personal to me, and it stands really close to my heart. I've always had problems with self-esteem, I would never be happy with who I was and how I looked, since I was a kid. I tried to put a little bit of that in the video, the first part is kind of "sadder" and it has a grayish and uncolored coloring, to represent what I was, I didn't believe in myself, I didn't like myself, making me live an unhappy life. And the second part is who I am trying to be: fully happy with who I am, and how I look, enjoying life at its best. But, enough about me- I want to talk about you.
If for some reason you don't like youself, I want to leave you a message: You're beautiful. Doesn't matter your age, race, gender, sexuality, religion, nationality- actually, it does matter, all of that makes part of who you are, and you are spectacular- but none of that changes how beautiful you are. I know it's hard sometimes, I know it's not something that comes fast and easy, but I'm inviting you to try. Look at yourself in the mirror everyday (Please don't avoid the mirror!) and say something good about yourself, and don't think "There's nothing good about myself." because there IS something good about yourself, I know that, and I know you can find it. And later you'll find a whole lot of another great things about yourself. And I tried my best to show that in the video, I showed different people with different realities but they shared the same insecurities, even if it's for different reasons, and I hope I could help someone to make them feel better. I'm not the best at giving advice, but if you need anything, I'll be here. You're amazing, you're worthy, you're talented, you're a masterpice, you're beautiful. I know that, but I need YOU to know that, are you willing to learn?
And in case you're wandering where those quotes from the video come from: they're from (incredible) TED Talks, and I'll be listing them here:

They're really good and you should totally watch them.
At a part of the video I wanted to put the audio from TW that says "If you're going through hell, keep going." but I wasn't able to, so I just put the text, I hope it doesn't look too weird.
I'LL BE BACK TO ANSWER YOUR COMMENTS TOMORROW, HAVE A NICE HOLIDAY EVERYONE! (10000 heart emojis)
