What a tragic loss of a young, beautiful life in a pointless, tyrannical war. 'The American dream died in the jungles of Vietnam.'😭

That was so sad. I had no idea it would end like it did. I cried when I read Mark was killed in Vietnam. And I cried for the teacher. He was a respectful young boy and it seemed to carry on to young adulthood. Please be kind to others. We never know what life brings our way.

I found this to be both beautiful and sad. It made me cry. Thank you for sharing this Sister.

Sometimes we need to visit our inner self and feel what being human should be all about.

I’ve watched this many times, and it always makes me cry. It’s such a heartwarming story and one of life’s most valuable lessons. Thank you!

“Don’t be pushed around by the fears in your mind. Be led by the dreams in your heart.” Keep smiling you will Succeed, sharing some love with ya all.

I don’t know I’m crying. Life is so unfair.

Thank You so very kindly

RIP Mark. My grandpa fought in 'Nam, I've never asked him about it, I already know it's a subject he wont talk about from my mom, who asked him several times, all he would say is "I did terrible things, and wrecked so many people's lives, war is a terrible thing." Always stuff along those lines, but he'll tell you some things like what rank he was, or what branch he was in, I never asked though, but this just makes me wonder (about details he would NEVER share) did he know Mark, or other people who didn't know what they were doing, and died for no reason? One thing he will tell us though, is that as soon as he arrived back in America, a blonde woman spit in his face and called him a murderer, he said it took all of the strength he had to not yell at the woman, he would tell us (again only a little bit) he didn't even know exactly what the war was even for, to be honest, I don't know why America was involved either, I agree with him though, war IS terrible, war wrecks lives, rest in peace to everyone who died in 'Nam or any other war, thank you for your service to anyone else who survived wars. You may have done terrible things against your will, but we thank you, for all you have done, I'm sure you want to forget the details that may haunt your dreams, but remember, your loyalty to your country is truly inspiring, unlike Donald "Captain Bone Spurs" Trump who bought his way out of the war, and was then elected president, you are truly American heroes. We thank you for your service, and we solute you.

I wish we could read the rest of the last picot. There are two things in the way.

I'm confused what should I be learning here please help me to understand This. Thank You Very Much. Sencerly Your's Valeria Ruff

Maybe some bit he’s in high school really do soften up and are generally nice people later in life. Rest In Peace Mark and May you never be forgotten.

That is so lovely. I am sure most people have doubts what other people think of them. If they realised that people think highly of them life would be a little easier.

my son very good same boy pkease help me

People have such great imaginations. Great tearjerker!

What a wonderful teacher. A really a sad story. 😭

That was beautiful story. Thank you,!

This stupid video started showing up on videos that I have saved. Also I am now getting advertising before most of the things I try to watch. I am a Vietnam vet and a senior citizen. I enjoy KZfaq but you are charging $12.00 monthly to get rid of the ads. That is ludicrous!!! I guess I'll have find something to replace your app!!!!

How awful to tape a child's mouth. I hope it haunts you. And what if the class had bullied him and all written nasty things?

Omg this was beautiful, sad and loving. What an Angel he is. God bless him and his family. God bless the wonderful teacher. 🙏🙏🙏

Be tolerant of others and strict with yourself.

Awe inspiring how LONG ago he said these truths & how more applicable they become with age.

How you learn two life is do to you but remember that you have a lot more money than you no.i want to talk to me about why

Why why did he speak why o why

This is happy and sad "but"

What a pile of Sacarine Sentimental Tosh. If Yankee Land kept its nose out of other countries affairs and abolished gun carrying in their own country, life would be much longer for all of us.

What a Blessing this young man was.💝💝💝

It just shows...how a human being... touched another being to be a human. Thank you for this but my tears won't stop falling...it pains me a lot when we lose someone we loved because there is no replacement not even a replica...thank you...again

😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢

loved the video and what it was about but the last few minutes were ruined by your ads that popped up and covered the words so I couldn't see the rest of it

Wow. That was uplifting.

It would've been the last thing she did if it was my kid.

The Moral is simple enough here. Never stop anyone from speaking or making their mark, as an individual they have both the Right and Duty to speak. Furthermore, Never go to war and fight for politicians or any flag. Did they really respect him ?

What an amazing teacher you are .

I am annoyed that I have not been able to read the text till the end. In case you want to advertise your other videos, kindly prolong each video by a few seconds of 'irrelevant' data and add to your end screen.

This is an amazing video. Just one thing. It is a bit hard to read it at 7:06 because of there being a video link. Could you maybe move it abit. Like I said amazing video and thanks for the upload.

I always call my mom at 10AM and one day I was with my daughter in law and she has always heard me say goodnight and asked me why I say that I told her because I say I love you and goodnight because I never want to say goodbye

too bad interrupted at the end with advertisement, hard to share it like that, it ruins the story and if based on a true story, then it didn't serve him full justice although started off as beautiful and touching

You made me cry. So sad, so beautifull.💖

I love hearing how teachers influenced our lives. This one is definitely a five star. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 My grade seven teacher really influenced me. I wish that I could tell her today. I do think that she knows it. Thank you to her,she was "The Best". ❤

I AM SPEECHLESS. Very moving. ♥️🕯

I agree with Barbara. It was wonderful but I couldn't see the end because of the ads!!! I'm a retired teacher and wish I had thought to do something like this!

Our community is a very wonderful complex of human love and understanding - sometimes in the 'shadow'.

I cried.

I'm sure Marcus Aurelius quotes are wonderful to read but the stupid pop up at the end of the video made it so I couldn't read the last several lines. Aside from that it was a wonderful video thank you for sharing that. Peace and love from Atlanta

The ads at the end sucks, since they cover the text...

Great story, really. I'll try that with my classes. Unfortunately, at the end the text is blocked by the pop-up ad, and I couldn't see the final messages. What a shame!

I didn’t get to see the end because of that darn ad!
