one of those rare songs that can make me weep by the time i get to the end. so inexplicably heavenly. the video, even more so. it makes me want to grab the very moments of life that we cherish, hold them close to my heart and never let go. human life is not perfection, but going back to a period in our lives when the trivial petty things didn't matter and little gestures meant the world to us... life was simple and beautiful. we aren't able to recreate that at the stage of life that we're at right now because we concern ourselves with things that won't mean a thing when we approach the end of our years. worrying about materialistic status, what other people "might think", constantly holding back how you truly feel because being expressive is wrong, never seizing an opportunity because you 'think' you might fail etc. are the things i'm reminded of when i listen to this song. going back to a care-free, pure, and child-like innocence towards the world would help us truly understand and appreciate life... and this song conveys that best.
