Having worked as a therapist, teacher and coach with a Masters in Counseling Psychology, there is a fine dance between authenticity and being in touch with our own emotions, aware of our own bias, perceptions and potential projections and transference; as well as remaining a steadfast, safe and professional space for those in need. While I am not the viewer’s therapist in this video, I still strive to find that balance. This song evoked strong emotions within me, that I will speak about a bit (within measure), but there is also a plethora of powerful takeaways we can all gather from this song. Showing our emotions on camera is always a tricky, at times questionable, but apparently an increasingly powerful way to connect in our digital age, as so many seem to long for genuine reactions and connection.

Empathy not sympathy is what my lecturer taught me when I was working in hospital wards. But it’s a fine line.

Sometimes I just lay down with my Grandpa at his grave and listen to this song cause I never really processed his passing all the way.
Been over 12 years and I still find myself opening the floodgates of tears randomly.
Breaks me everytime even though I know the happy ending. It's a gut punch, this and his other song "The girl that never was" are both heartbreaking.
Es una despedida muy inglesa, muy profunda. Cuando dice no soy tu hijo no eres mi padre no es exactamente así que debería traducirse al español. Creo que falta decir en este momento no soy tu hijo. No eres mi padre, creo que “en este momento” sería muy importante. se puede mejorar la traducción.

I’m not sure how you watch this and not cry. Being a therapist and letting this get to you makes you more relatable in my opinion. What kind of psycho doesn’t cry to this song?
God that really got me. First time hearing this song and I had to walk away from my work station to cry.
