Transcript
TikTok show has a way of making you feel like a fucked up individual. TikTok has a way to make your day that was going kind of good bad. TikTok has a way to make you feel like you are just selfish to a point and don't realize how blessed you really are. My wife sent me a fucking video on this fuck ass app of this little ass boy who starts the video saying that he's going to shave his hair to support his cousin who is battling cancer right now. And I was doing just fine watching the video, it was sad, I was like, oh, emotions did not get pulled until he called his cousin and the cousin's reaction. What you did it. He says stop. No you didn't, stop. And he just starts crying, Mason is on the phone crying. And then you see the little boy who cut his hair, you see him crying and he doesn't say a word, he's just eyes just full of tears. And then Mason who is battling cancer has to support his cousin who is sad because he's seeing his cousin Mason who is the one fighting cancer, it is now hitting him of what he just did. The act of kindness and love that he showed his cousin and he's seeing how it's impacting that little boy. And Mason has to tell his cousin like these are happy tears, these are not sad tears, I promise, he's like happy, I can't believe you did this for me. The kindness and the love that that little boy showed his cousin, where is that at in adults? Where is that at in this world? It seems like so much hatred is driven, but videos that I just saw only had 5,000 likes and I'll see some dookie ass, ignorant ass, racist, bigot ass fucking videos and that shit is blowing my timeline. Be more like Mason and his cousin. Be more like his cousin who is showing Mason who is battling a deadly virus, a deadly fucking fight. He showed him love, empathy, compassion, he showed him unity, he showed him I'm not better than you, you're not better than me, this sickness is not going to destroy us. And as adults, it's like we have a hard time understanding the concept of just just pure genuine love and decency as a human being. It's crazy.
