Why Forgiveness Is Essential - Video Essay 

forgiveness is not about reconciliation. i wouldn't expect someone who has been abused or raped to become all buddy-buddy with the one who ruined their life, but it's important to not let resentment and hatred take over.

This channel will be monetized after this video is fully released wow what a beautiful work of art great job man keep going

This was a beautiful and very well done video. Three of the most brilliant shows of this generation showing such contrasting yet complementary and profound depictions of one concept. This was my first time seeing that AOT scene since release and first time hearing the dub... and holy crap, that line "we gotta get the children out of that forest" genuinely made me cry, such a poignant statement it makes you realise there really is nothing as important in this world than ending those cycles of generational violence. I'm not too big on the ol' Christianity myself and was initially stightly jarred by the ending since i wasn't expecting it, but as another commenter said it didn't come off as preachy and offered an interesting perspective that I normally wouldn't hear. Thanks for the video, hope your channel grows dude!

It will get easier Man GOD BE WITH YOU!!!!!

“If a man insults me, kills my father, my mother, my brother, and then gouges out my eye, as a Christian it is my duty to forgive him. We who are pious Christians ought to love our enemies and forgive them. We ought to offer them food and drink, and entreat God for their souls. And then we should say: ‘My God, I beseech Thee to forgive me, as I have forgiven my enemies.’” + St. Kosmas Aitolos (sorry, I'm Orthodox and just felt compelled to paste a relevant moving quote for this powerful video from the far eastern society with big seeds of the truth, so to speak)

With video essays of this level of quality, it'll only be a matter of time before more attention comes to you. A morbidly beautiful subject matter, made with some great insight.

Recently watching through ATLA again. Watching lots of videos around is and discovered you. As a Protestant Christian with a love for stories, fiction and philosophy I have found myself musing and thinking alot about these stories in the life of a Christian. Today I found you as I’ve found myself mired in all this. I see many similar interests as well, as I’m picking up keenly on your usage of Halo music. Subbing to your channel and really enjoying your perspectives. Especially from a Christian point of view. God Bless.

I really like this video and your thoughts!! Topic is really important

Your channel is really coming along, man. Keep it up!

What a great look at three different examples of forgiveness (and the lack thereof). You give a multitude of wise statements about wisdom by using your examples to make your point! It is really good what you are doing here! Keep it up! I'll say again, you do a great job of analyzing these shows with a Christian perspective and best of all without getting preachy about it! The Christian message you are giving flows naturally into your greater video essay.

The way you used 3 of my favourites shows makes this video a masterpiece

Also, fantastic editing and storytelling!

Thank the algorithms for the recommendation

Love seeing you grow and reach your true potential broski!

Insightful as always, keep it up!🙂

Wake up babe an Orthodox brother who makes killer video essays made another one

This is a beautiful video, my brother in Christ. Thank you.

“Forgive others, not because they deserve forgiveness but because you deserve peace” - Some instagram quote idk

Did you use some of the same words in the one about Aang forgiving Ozai when you were talking about Katara? Cause I swear I either heard that from you or from the cycle of violence video by someone else

Are any religion or anything they teach you my peg and guards teach me that revenge and secret of my enemy would be like me pouring a bottle of rap poison drinking it down and expecting them to die it's just like The last airbender said when you actually go into vengeance you are poisoning yourself henceforth you are not just destroying your enemy but your enemy is destroying you your enemy always Win

My religion tells me that what I put out in the world I get back and what I get back I put out yes I can use curses and black magic and all of that but at the end I am no better than my enemy I am no better than my phone and at the end of the day I will get back what I will receive there is a reason why when you You become a Gray magic minister you always recite I will weep what I will sew😊

man is dissing EREN the whole video wtf
