Only 13? I wish I cared as much at that age, but I don't think I did.

Right around the end, at the 6:20 mark, I suddenly burst into tears. WTF? Wasn't I just saying how nothing makes me cry? Apparently this little girl saying all the things my heart thinks these people should hear - it just hit me hard. Thank you.

I know, it's not like I don't know/learn about this and even worse at uni, but it somehow still got to me.
