While I do think it’s important to know how to move on, I also think there’s a value in today’s culture that is being missed.... and that’s what holds relationships together: devotion. Someone can care deeply about a person, but if the choice hasn’t been made to place that somebody above their own needs, they will eventually give up when dreams are compromised or expectations aren’t met. Humanity is imperfect, and people fail each other all of the time. So then why is the result of disconnecting from someone often bound to an expectation of perfection? That’s what we see here in this short. There’s a lack of commitment from both sides. The man becomes overly stressed and obsessed with work rather than prioritizing his relationship, something that our success-crazed culture has deemed okay. I won’t even dig into why this is an unsustainable way of living (Is it hard to avoid buying into this lifestyle? Yes. But is it worth it? Absolutely. Every time). The woman quickly loses her interest and displays a lack of commitment because the man does not live up to the expectations she has in mind. Friction occurs, but instead of resolving it both give up and allow their love to die in favor of other dreams... So at the end, is the message really something we should live by? The subtle tone that says “Hey. It’s okay. You had a good run, but now it’s time to give up and move on.” Is this how we want to live? Constantly disconnecting from people and breaking hearts because we can’t seem to find reason to try again? I understand that relationships can be hard, painful, or downright frustrating, and I do understand that some relationships are unhealthy and dangerous - so I’m not advocating that you needlessly endure physical abuse or other harmful environments to make something unrealistic happen. But there’s a level of entitlement we shouldn’t carry in our hearts when it comes to relationships. This relationship in the story could’ve easily been fixed, but it was the fact that neither were devoted enough to pick up the pieces and try again. It’s the very same reason why so many marriages struggle to survive in today’s social climate. Instead of leaning into each other, constantly serving one another’s needs, loving and enduring all shapes and forms and hardships as one unit, it becomes a tug of war on who is and isn’t getting what. When the focus is placed on ourselves - our needs, our wants, our desires, our expectations - we lose sight of what a relationship is really all about. Love is an emotion. Love is conditional. But devotion is a choice, one that is inseparable. Devotion is not conditional. So let’s not neglect the value of our relationships when things aren’t perfect or we feel we (or other people for that matter) aren’t getting what we deserve. There is almost always a way to make a turn for the better. Choose to be devoted.
I'm so glad there's still are people who think this way bc is very tiring and sad to know how many care more about the emotional part (love) of the relationship and leave devotion and commitment aside when tbh that's the base and foundation, the roots that hold relationships together in hard times. Love is an emotion and it can change in many situa6if you did not decide to commit towards the other since the beginning then the relationship won't last.
THANK U someone told the true meaning of a real relationship...but lt's sad most people these days are more selfish to get your massege and use it....sad love means nothing these days axcept a fierce flame of passion turning to ashes as the time passes.....
Whoever made this animation deserves an award. I felt everything from this video. I grew up to my parents fighting all the time..so this hit a little hard. I hope whoever made this artwork is okay..
rainylibrarian u grew up to ur parents fighting all the time....I felt that, currently n that situation, in 6 more days I’ll be 18, I can leave after that
Thank you for this insight. A lot of people are commenting on the importance of devotion and how that could have saved them, apparently. I'm with you. A breakup is not an unnecessary ending. Some relationships need to end for the health and happiness of everyone involved.
so basically: the whole nightmare thing was all in his head, and the flower was representing an inevitable wither, (their relationship) that they had to stop holding on to in order to move past/get rid of their tangled roots, or problematic points in their life?
I got that towards the end... but at the beginning of the video, I loved how it was so suspenseful, got me wondering about the little flower and why he was protecting so hard it from dangers, almost had me cheering for the flower the whole way through lol But this is very nicely done, a good message. :)
Moving on is a hard thing to do. It doesn’t matter who you are or how you lost it. It just hurts... For most people in pain, they try to cling to the past because they can’t help but hang on to the good memories. But letting go of the past doesn’t have to mean forgetting it. It’s about being able to overcome the pain and evolve from it. To cherish the memories instead of having them chain you to the ground. This was such a fabulous short, depicting great emotions and struggle we all face when we hit a big wall in our everyday lives. While this is mainly based on the emotional turmoil after a breakup, I think you could associate this to all kinds of terrible situations in which you emotionally struggle to overcome. The music and sound effects were amazing. The art and voice acting was lovely. I loved this short through and through! Thank you for the beautiful work!
this show the woman is no good but the man is not it's love. So they boht never go long or be forever. There love life is just on the age of need more watering, more fertilizer, sun shine, and pesticide. They never stay long if it hard time to give more to each othere, in marrage there are a saying of vows. To richer to poorer For ever to worse, to deaht as we part
This is quite an amazing method to show the tangled relationship which the guy was trying to save. How they used flower as symbolism for their relationship and the roots to show the troubles and the light to represent freedom is absolutely amazing. What many people here might not know is that this whole short is done in Unity Game engine and that just make it more amazing.
The storyline is really good, with the animation that shows symbolism of particular things that holds his past. Then I finally understood it when in 10:30 he was running towards the sunlight. The woman was right when she said those words. though many would think they can work things out or maybe if she didn't left the man. But, this is a story where an option had a consequence like that; and one should find a way towards the light as we are humans and not things or beings that can't walk or do things on our own. We have to start anew, even though it might be painful at first, but that will make us grow. Acceptance is the key, letting go of the past, and it's not too late to try again or refresh with life.
I think the flower represented his love for her and his hope for their relationship. No matter how hard he tried to sustain and save it, nothing was ever good enough and all the odds were against him. So he fell into the darkness or depression because their relationship slowly worsened until it died and nothing was left. He couldn't see the light anymore, and even in that darkness, she still saved him, just to leave. But, though he was sad, he understood why it ended and accepted it by stepping into the sunlight
A think one of the points is if you neglect your relationship and dont communicate with one anuther the damage can’t always be undone, a person can feel trapped when they are physically and mentally neglected and betime the other spouse actually realises they are about to lose their partner it’s to late one heart was broke a long time ago an now the other, which is so sad when it happens to relationships
this question always gets to me 'can u save a relationship' in my opinion the answer is simple to how. But that is only if people partners are willing to go that far for each other and if they aren't but still like each other, what is the point if one is willing but the other is not.
Oh man. He really didn't wanna leave her. Yet she wanted to move on. The flower was him trying to bring back the relative they had but instead broke him down more to the point of realisation that he has to move on
Danielle botsch Not all relationships work that way. This animation can only show so much. From what we did see, the couple had a happy relationship, and then after the move, they started growing apart. Of course they tried- but sometimes, trying to save and continuing to build something and having it fail, where each day you two grow apart, those are situations that happen, and it’s no ones fault. It’s not his fault, and neither it is hers. The point of this video isn’t to show how therapy can help a relationship, but how we have to let go of the past and our hurt that burdens us. It requires so much strength, courage, forgiveness and love, for the other person and for you. And it’s worth it. It shows that even if that person may not be in our life anymore, they have affected us beyond measure, and we keep a part of them in ourselves, entangled throughout. And we can go on, deserving a life that is profoundly meaningful. Letting go doesn’t mean betrayal. It doesn’t mean cutting off the past. It doesn’t mean never thinking of that person anymore. It doesn’t even mean letting go of those beautiful moments or the love you have felt. It means allowing yourself and the other the gift of life. It means letting go of the shackles and hurt of the past. It means working through the painful emotions that arise knowing that you can’t freeze time in those perfect moments. Most of all, it means allowing yourself to *move with* the love that you shared. It means gratitude for yourself and your life, and for them and their lives. It means wishing you both the best, trusting each other to take care of yourselves. It may even mean that one day, you believe that you’ll share some sort of existence again, if you don’t believe you already do, through your heart and through time, one that doesn’t expect anything in return, that rests and breathes in appreciation, admiration, gratitude, hope and love. Our hearts are capable of more love and strength than we could possible imagine. Maybe it’s possible to let go of the burden of external circumstances and the longing for times before or past, and rest in knowing you are loved and you do love, and that can be a state of being that not bound by space or time, but just is, always will be and maybe always was.
thank you... for the final words... they choked on me... the words she didn't tell me... when she found someone better.... focus on the road ahead.... things will only get better from here... thank you.
It' s difficult to forget persons who you have loved sometime. I always think that understanding, empathy, talking to each other could help bring persons together, when they intend to split up from themselves. Unfortunately sometimes there is no chance to repair a relationship. Sometimes it' s better to separate from someone instead of hoping to become good friends again. Nevertheless I would always fight for persons who are important for me first. Sometimes a little flower can help. Never give up persons who are important for you. Otherwise the little flower called love and hope will wilt too quickly. Thank you so much to the animating team which produced this beautiful film " Sonder "! Good health to everyone of you!
I love this video. The ending got me so much tears. If feel so bad for him. I hope he well find someone else. Thank you I never cried for a while and I never let things go. Well.......this helped me so much, thank you. I give this video a tons tons of likes. Thanks for the video! I might share the video to my family
This animation speaks volumes, when ever you lose someone that is so dear to you, you feel crushed, sometimes it a struggle to carry on, when it is your loved one who also leaves this world the greatest gift to give to them is not just the memories but to continue to enjoy your life as they would have wished it,
They lack the support of helping each other and they were more into their own needs and desires. He focused too much on his work and put little value in her. She wanted everything to be focused on her. Neither of them were right or wrong but they could have fixed the problem. Nothing is perfect so you make the best of it. You give it your best. You stand up and help each other no matter how rough the roads are. That’s life. it’s a journey of good and bad things but if you hang on and support each other, the results of the end will be successful. Now days people give up too easily. They don’t have the patience to endure mistakes in a relationship. I understand some relationships can be harmful but for this relationship, they only argue. No physical abuse whatsoever. Anyways, it could have been prevented and I hope that everyone out there who is struggling in their relationship learn to love, devote, and be patient. Learn from your own mistakes and find ways to prevent yourself from making the situation worse with your partner. Help each other because in the end no one else is going help you guys. They might just help you break up your relationship. (We laugh together, we cry together)
im sorry, just this once alright? and I won't do it again promise IF YOU LOVE ME LET ME GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I resisted from crying for the whole time . Then that final scene, with him crying and going out in the sun . I just couldn't . I cried and couldn't stop myself .
They are getting cold to each other, when he climbs to the mountain.. The more he wants to reach his goals, the more their relationship will die. Responsibilities really affects everything, if you can't handle it well.. I hope we find hope and peace through our choices. *OUR CHOICES, DEFINES OUR ACTIONS*
finally this on UA-cam. Who ever mad this, you’re animation is wonderful. I was in a relationship with a guy for almost two years. One day, he told me to come by his place. Walked and we sat down. Explaining.. that he didn’t love me anymore. That day was very emotional and felt so helpless and heart broken. I’m doing so better now till I saw this on Instagram. Reminds me about who my ex and broke up. You gotta move forward and find better opportunities in life.
Such a beautiful message and well made short film!! When we let the demands and chaos of this world get to us and miss out on the love in our heart, life becomes dreary 😔
Tbh, I can relate to the guy so much. Almost a month ago, my girlfriend (my first girlfriend actually) broke up with me after nearly a year of us being together. It was honestly for the best and I know that I have to let her go in order to move on, but I can't help missing her and wanting to reach out again after everything we've been through together. But I realize now how clinging onto those memories of her held me back so much, I even contemplated if anything is worth it anymore since she was the reason why I kept going. But I've also learned not to make the person you love your entire world because if they leave you, you have nothing left, nothing to care for or love anymore; you should never forget to love and care for yourself. Letting go and moving on is your responsibility, not theirs. Don't blame them for making you hold yourself back after the break-up, that is on You. It's your choice to decide whether or not to let go and "keep looking forward". I'm still trying to keep looking forward instead of glancing back to her, but I'm getting there. I hope that anyone who's also in the same situation will get there too ❤️
The best part of youtube: this channel & others like it (not to mention the sleepytime vids that relax you 😊) have good commentary and ppl who care. Thanks for the community 💖
Thank you, thank you very much! My relationship ended today, I felt lost, finished. She left without reason, no fight, just went ... You showed me a light! Thank you...
Yes. He has hope and loves her ,but more he tries ,worse it gets. And then there is the ending where she still saves him and tells him to continue with his life and focus on his future , not past.
you guys put everything in going through in this wonderfully animated and beautifully crafted work i love it and my heart broke over and over thank you so much i needed this
Wow. That was. Wow. I am finally kind of on time to see it. And not late. Anyway, I thought it was fantastic. I didn't get it at first, but I read about it in the description, and it makes sense now! Fantastic piece of art
I dont understand how anybody can dislike this. people are full of hatred, love, heartbreak, sadness, and most important fear. all this Is stating is that it's hard. but u can get through it. I like everyone else am going through hardships. but one can only hope right... I mean it's about trying. I try and I dont give up. things that seem inevitable sometimes can be helped. like the man who becomes obsessed with his job.
My wife and I have been married 46 years. I thought I lost her today from a heart attack. But she is going to be fine. This short film is how I felt, lost, scared, alone, unable to fight for who I love more than life it's self. All I could do was stand by and pray. I hope no one has to feel this way, ever.
Mimau, hay tantas cosas que quise decirte y que no pude, nunca supe encontrar las palabras correctas. Se que las cosas siempre han sido dificiles para ti, y por ello te comprendo... A cuando nuestra relación haya terminado, tu siempre seras parte de mi. Solo tu sabes cuan maravillosa y cuan fuerte eres.. Es muy duro dejarte ir, pero debemos separarnos para encontrarnos a nosotros mismos. Deja ir el pasado y mira hacia adelante, enfocate en el camino que tienes por delante. Todo mejorara desde aqui...
I totally inspired by this story of sonder and therefore I did a series for sonder . I wish the world to see this animated movie they did..I hope my songs will bring a lot of people to watch this movie.. thanks for such a creative movie you guys made .. sonder inspired
I honeslty hate this kind of logic. The whole I love you but we can't be together bs. A relationship is like anything else in life you get what you put into it. If you truely love someone then you would do anything for them. If you claim you love someone but are not willing to compromise and work for that relationship then it is all just empty words. True love is not something you say it is something you work at everyday. If people cant understand the devotion needed to maintain true love or the will to fight for it then they will never be lucky enough to find it.
Well that "BS" Is real life and when someone says "I love you but we can be together" Means "I love you but we can't be together until you fix yourself or until I fix myself" Like in the video he was so focused on work and neglected her and you can see they fought over it multiple times it wasn't just once and "oh I'm leaving" No they had that convention multiple times, the lady said it herself "Our roots got tangled as we grew" She needed time to reflect and he needed to look at his priorities
@@f_society1550 No that is not real life that is the bs. That is literally the ramblings of someone who does not understand true love. " I love you but we cant be together until you fix yourself" Are you kidding me that is the most condescending interpretation of love I have every heard. Sorry I love you but we cant be together until you act the way I want or until you make yourself worthy of my love. Love is not about forcing people to conform to your whims or needs. It is about accepting the faults of the one your love or helping them better themselves to over come those fault. It is not some "oh I love you but this is to hard so I am out" Also the man was busting his ass at his job. What you think he was just doing that cause he loves to work. I mean the dude broke down after she left. The simple things he use to do become like hard quests it was literally expressing this in the depictions of his grief. I mean he could not have been working for his future with her or anything. I mean she was clearly torn up about it. It must have been that she loved him so much that she had to let him go. I will say this again love is something that takes hard work and dedication. It comes with a lot of good times and a lot of bad times but if you truly love someone then you put forth the effort to make it work because you love them. If you are not willing to put forth that effort, one you did not love the person as much as you claim or two you do not have the will to weather the journey and build a connection that will last decades.
Essa história lembra muito o que eu vivi a algum tempo atrás, até hoje me encontro da forma qual ele terminou no filme arrasado, foi tudo tão incrível e... Por falta de cuidado tudo acabou

Moving on is a hard thing to do. It doesn’t matter who you are or how you lost it. It just hurts...

Some relationships are not ment to be saved. But to learn in respect of the loss. So that one could grow.

TP_Toby it’s messed up. She’s a bitch. She gave up. She didn’t communicate she didn’t try. She just argued and got quiet.
@@dee7414 I wouldn't call her that, but yes. Both gave up on their relationship, but the man, at the least, tried to hold on for as long as he could.
Sometimes no matter how much you try to hold on, it always ends up killing you more and more everyday
Huh
Danielle botsch
Not all relationships work that way.
This animation can only show so much. From what we did see, the couple had a happy relationship, and then after the move, they started growing apart. Of course they tried- but sometimes, trying to save and continuing to build something and having it fail, where each day you two grow apart, those are situations that happen, and it’s no ones fault. It’s not his fault, and neither it is hers.
The point of this video isn’t to show how therapy can help a relationship, but how we have to let go of the past and our hurt that burdens us. It requires so much strength, courage, forgiveness and love, for the other person and for you. And it’s worth it. It shows that even if that person may not be in our life anymore, they have affected us beyond measure, and we keep a part of them in ourselves, entangled throughout. And we can go on, deserving a life that is profoundly meaningful.
Letting go doesn’t mean betrayal. It doesn’t mean cutting off the past. It doesn’t mean never thinking of that person anymore. It doesn’t even mean letting go of those beautiful moments or the love you have felt.
It means allowing yourself and the other the gift of life. It means letting go of the shackles and hurt of the past. It means working through the painful emotions that arise knowing that you can’t freeze time in those perfect moments. Most of all, it means allowing yourself to *move with* the love that you shared.
It means gratitude for yourself and your life, and for them and their lives. It means wishing you both the best, trusting each other to take care of yourselves. It may even mean that one day, you believe that you’ll share some sort of existence again, if you don’t believe you already do, through your heart and through time, one that doesn’t expect anything in return, that rests and breathes in appreciation, admiration, gratitude, hope and love.
Our hearts are capable of more love and strength than we could possible imagine. Maybe it’s possible to let go of the burden of external circumstances and the longing for times before or past, and rest in knowing you are loved and you do love, and that can be a state of being that not bound by space or time, but just is, always will be and maybe always was.

lol so true
thank you...
for the final words...
they choked on me...
the words she didn't tell me...
when she found someone better....
focus on the road ahead....
things will only get better from here...
thank you.
It is not about better, it is about different, I think. 🙂
A flower cannot survive without care, as with a relationship.
It' s difficult to forget persons who you have loved sometime.
I always think that understanding, empathy, talking to each other could help bring persons together, when they intend to split up from themselves.
Unfortunately sometimes there is no chance to repair a relationship.
Sometimes it' s better to separate from someone instead of hoping to become good friends again.
Nevertheless I would always fight for persons who are important for me first. Sometimes a little flower can help.
Never give up persons who are important for you.
Otherwise the little flower called love and hope will wilt too quickly.
Thank you so much to the animating team which produced this beautiful film " Sonder "! Good health to everyone of you!
Just Keep Moving Forward!!
These is my favorite Animated Short Film ..
This is the best CGI SHORT FILM I'VE EVER SEEN!
What a heartbreaking story
I love this video. The ending got me so much tears. If feel so bad for him. I hope he well find someone else. Thank you I never cried for a while and I never let things go. Well.......this helped me so much, thank you. I give this video a tons tons of likes. Thanks for the video! I might share the video to my family
Bella Rose so her wife left him??
I’m not lying, but sad animations don’t make me cry. I get sad, but I don’t cry. This made me cry 😭
That's every thing! Really !
This animation speaks volumes, when ever you lose someone that is so dear to you, you feel crushed, sometimes it a struggle to carry on, when it is your loved one who also leaves this world the greatest gift to give to them is not just the memories but to continue to enjoy your life as they would have wished it,
Ahhh I love it ❤ absolutely beautiful and perfect. Thank you
They’re portraying the stages of grief.. that’s quite amazing..
They lack the support of helping each other and they were more into their own needs and desires. He focused too much on his work and put little value in her. She wanted everything to be focused on her. Neither of them were right or wrong but they could have fixed the problem. Nothing is perfect so you make the best of it. You give it your best. You stand up and help each other no matter how rough the roads are. That’s life. it’s a journey of good and bad things but if you hang on and support each other, the results of the end will be successful. Now days people give up too easily. They don’t have the patience to endure mistakes in a relationship. I understand some relationships can be harmful but for this relationship, they only argue. No physical abuse whatsoever. Anyways, it could have been prevented and I hope that everyone out there who is struggling in their relationship learn to love, devote, and be patient. Learn from your own mistakes and find ways to prevent yourself from making the situation worse with your partner. Help each other because in the end no one else is going help you guys. They might just help you break up your relationship. (We laugh together, we cry together)
This short film is fantastic actually everyone has a broken heart need to watch it
It's not about how intense you are, But about how intent you are! 😊
I couldn't sleep after watching this, cos this is just my story
Stay strong doug.
Same here...
A young man's grief and eventual emerging from it. Beautifully told.
im sorry, just this once alright? and I won't do it again promise
IF YOU LOVE ME LET ME GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Derpthing, lol
then i would say kill me & then leave if u really love me
OK I forgive you, but if you do it again I’m gonna puke.
i am human, i do mistakes.. that doesn't mean full breakup.. just take a break like one month.
thats enough punishment
Derpthing omg i was thinking about that song during this video
Guy: *loses a darn flower*
Clip: DUNNN DDUUnnN DDuuNNN!!!
but its a really good animation :)
After an amazing story, with great animation; I'm still waiting for a stronger finish............????
Ron Migatz yet, life in its truth, is underwhelming..we lose our bonds and hv to learn to carry on.,
Just flex
who makes these animated short films because I got some ideas they could use.
Every relationship needs warmness of love and affection to grow .
I resisted from crying for the whole time . Then that final scene, with him crying and going out in the sun . I just couldn't . I cried and couldn't stop myself .
They are getting cold to each other, when he climbs to the mountain.. The more he wants to reach his goals, the more their relationship will die. Responsibilities really affects everything, if you can't handle it well.. I hope we find hope and peace through our choices. *OUR CHOICES, DEFINES OUR ACTIONS*
Hi
finally this on UA-cam. Who ever mad this, you’re animation is wonderful. I was in a relationship with a guy for almost two years. One day, he told me to come by his place. Walked and we sat down. Explaining.. that he didn’t love me anymore. That day was very emotional and felt so helpless and heart broken. I’m doing so better now till I saw this on Instagram. Reminds me about who my ex and broke up. You gotta move forward and find better opportunities in life.
and now i've looked up the meaning of "sonder". thanks.for bringing this word to my attention.
Such a beautiful message and well made short film!! When we let the demands and chaos of this world get to us and miss out on the love in our heart, life becomes dreary 😔
Super inspiring. Never getting into a relationship again from this day forward.
When you're asking yourself "Is it worth it?" answer is NO.
Out of all animations i've watched on this channel so far, this one is probably one of the best
You dont know how badly I needed to see this video mentally and emotionally
Tbh, I can relate to the guy so much. Almost a month ago, my girlfriend (my first girlfriend actually) broke up with me after nearly a year of us being together. It was honestly for the best and I know that I have to let her go in order to move on, but I can't help missing her and wanting to reach out again after everything we've been through together. But I realize now how clinging onto those memories of her held me back so much, I even contemplated if anything is worth it anymore since she was the reason why I kept going. But I've also learned not to make the person you love your entire world because if they leave you, you have nothing left, nothing to care for or love anymore; you should never forget to love and care for yourself. Letting go and moving on is your responsibility, not theirs. Don't blame them for making you hold yourself back after the break-up, that is on You. It's your choice to decide whether or not to let go and "keep looking forward". I'm still trying to keep looking forward instead of glancing back to her, but I'm getting there. I hope that anyone who's also in the same situation will get there too ❤️
Kimmy Co thank you for taking your time writing this paragraph ♥️
Well said 👍👍👌💝💝
It’s been one month since me and my now ex boyfriend have broken up, reading this was nice cause it reminded me to let go so thank you for sharing!
The best part of youtube: this channel & others like it (not to mention the sleepytime vids that relax you 😊) have good commentary and ppl who care. Thanks for the community 💖

The words that the girl said was so meaningful and made so much sense to me now! It had bought a different side of life out !!
Letting go of someone you loved is the hardest decisions ever..
#relate
SO SHWEEEETTT...much love Tee with LIONS NAMED LEO.[the music worldwide}
and soooo cool.!!
that got dark and emotional so fast. I still don't see why they broke up. He was dying and left to pick up the pieces. Those dang onions!
That line is very true at the end"We had to seperate to find ourselves"
I love how much meaning these animations have
This movie is deserve Award.
Honestly.
background music I really liked 🎶

Thank you!
DAMN Now thats a work of art .
I really want to make video like these :(
You cna do it
@@ryannixon4138 i really hope so, thank you so much 💕
Good luck, if you want, you can
@@ludoviccustos8831 thank youu, i appreciate that 💕
It wont hurt to try😄😄
Thank you, thank you very much! My relationship ended today, I felt lost, finished. She left without reason, no fight, just went ... You showed me a light! Thank you...
OUR PAST IS OUR STRENGTH AND WEAKNESS BOTH..ITS DEPEND ON US "HOW WE TAKE IT IN OUR PRESENT LIFE"😊.
So incredibly well done!! Such deep emotion as to how difficult it is to loose someone you love.
I havent finished it, but is he "traveling" through the stages of grief?
Yes. He has hope and loves her ,but more he tries ,worse it gets. And then there is the ending where she still saves him and tells him to continue with his life and focus on his future , not past.
Floddy
I’m going to cry:(
Amazing uses of symbolism throughout, beautifully visualized and artistically rendered. A fine work of very relevant art!
you guys put everything in going through in this wonderfully animated and beautifully crafted work i love it and my heart broke over and over thank you so much i needed this
What!! A love story.. Its amazing....
I like how her eyes are blue, the same color as the flower.
Can't believe it's *MADE WITH UNITY*
It's weird how your life can change in just a second
yea because she faund a big black cook! :)) like Eva faund a "big apple in a tree"!!
Sometimes, no matter how hard you try, it's just not meant to be. And that's okay. But that's a realization many of us have to learn on our own.
Amazing video
Wow. This was so meaningful. And very timely for me as well...
So it was basically just about letting go of the past and moving on.
this is when the happiest moment to your life shredded to ashes and you can step forward to what happen.
i feel so emotional watching this one
Good video
You always do great👌
Straight up broke my heart. Phenomenal music, animation and story
Wow. That was. Wow. I am finally kind of on time to see it. And not late. Anyway, I thought it was fantastic. I didn't get it at first, but I read about it in the description, and it makes sense now! Fantastic piece of art
I dont understand how anybody can dislike this. people are full of hatred, love, heartbreak, sadness, and most important fear. all this Is stating is that it's hard. but u can get through it. I like everyone else am going through hardships. but one can only hope right... I mean it's about trying. I try and I dont give up. things that seem inevitable sometimes can be helped. like the man who becomes obsessed with his job.
So amazing and also I've already seen this already
Okay, this is by far the best CGI animation that's not made by a major company I've ever seen.
Let go the past and look forward 💕
This was a good story,it also kinda makes me understand people more in a way that makes me balance out relationships as well
My wife and I have been married 46 years. I thought I lost her today from a heart attack. But she is going to be fine. This short film is how I felt, lost, scared, alone, unable to fight for who I love more than life it's self. All I could do was stand by and pray. I hope no one has to feel this way, ever.
steven F I hope you and her are okay 💛✨🤍😔
@@muchlovelola4419 Thank you so much!! We are doing better every day.
Very Outstanding. Great Message of FORGIVENESS. I LOVED IT.
I love this video very much ♥️♥️🎯
Me too
This story is beautiful. 😱
This short actually makes me feel more depressed that’s I was before...
While I personally don't agree with the 'moving on' and 'letting go' thing, I still thought this movie was beautiful.
Mimau, hay tantas cosas que quise decirte y que no pude, nunca supe encontrar las palabras correctas.
Se que las cosas siempre han sido dificiles para ti, y por ello te comprendo...
A cuando nuestra relación haya terminado, tu siempre seras parte de mi.
Solo tu sabes cuan maravillosa y cuan fuerte eres..
Es muy duro dejarte ir, pero debemos separarnos para encontrarnos a nosotros mismos.
Deja ir el pasado y mira hacia adelante, enfocate en el camino que tienes por delante.
Todo mejorara desde aqui...
You created a MASTERPIECE. 💐
all i have to say after watching that is.. *tuff*
Been watching yr channel for years 😎... Pixar who ? Hats off to yr team of artists 👍🦚😳
When will the day come where I dont cry...
PanaMay it’s been a while now, I see. How are you these days?

I really really really REALLY recommend seeing a therapist. It can be so beneficial and healing, to be heard and your pain validated.
I totally inspired by this story of sonder and therefore I did a series for sonder . I wish the world to see this animated movie they did..I hope my songs will bring a lot of people to watch this movie.. thanks for such a creative movie you guys made .. sonder inspired
I honeslty hate this kind of logic. The whole I love you but we can't be together bs. A relationship is like anything else in life you get what you put into it. If you truely love someone then you would do anything for them. If you claim you love someone but are not willing to compromise and work for that relationship then it is all just empty words. True love is not something you say it is something you work at everyday. If people cant understand the devotion needed to maintain true love or the will to fight for it then they will never be lucky enough to find it.
Facts.
Well that "BS" Is real life and when someone says "I love you but we can be together" Means "I love you but we can't be together until you fix yourself or until I fix myself" Like in the video he was so focused on work and neglected her and you can see they fought over it multiple times it wasn't just once and "oh I'm leaving" No they had that convention multiple times, the lady said it herself "Our roots got tangled as we grew" She needed time to reflect and he needed to look at his priorities
@@f_society1550 No that is not real life that is the bs. That is literally the ramblings of someone who does not understand true love. " I love you but we cant be together until you fix yourself" Are you kidding me that is the most condescending interpretation of love I have every heard. Sorry I love you but we cant be together until you act the way I want or until you make yourself worthy of my love. Love is not about forcing people to conform to your whims or needs. It is about accepting the faults of the one your love or helping them better themselves to over come those fault. It is not some "oh I love you but this is to hard so I am out"
Also the man was busting his ass at his job. What you think he was just doing that cause he loves to work. I mean the dude broke down after she left. The simple things he use to do become like hard quests it was literally expressing this in the depictions of his grief. I mean he could not have been working for his future with her or anything. I mean she was clearly torn up about it. It must have been that she loved him so much that she had to let him go.
I will say this again love is something that takes hard work and dedication. It comes with a lot of good times and a lot of bad times but if you truly love someone then you put forth the effort to make it work because you love them. If you are not willing to put forth that effort, one you did not love the person as much as you claim or two you do not have the will to weather the journey and build a connection that will last decades.
Preach. 🙏
@@hideki423 shiiiiii we got a poet lmao

Essa história lembra muito o que eu vivi a algum tempo atrás, até hoje me encontro da forma qual ele terminou no filme arrasado, foi tudo tão incrível e... Por falta de cuidado tudo acabou
