I know I'm biased, being a huge fan of Michaels, but I so wish that everyone on this planet had a heart and mind like his. There would be no injustice in the world, and everyone would be trying to lift each other up instead of beating each other down. When a man comes from almost nothing and goes on to gain massive success, and THEN goes back to help others with almost nothing, and becomes a voice in their fight for justice, he really is the best of mankind. With so many fights for justice in the world, we need many more like him

[@joel4367]

Sharon Holy shirt (not a typo) I thought it was just me who got sad about all of the poverty in this world...

[@thegingergyrl455]

I agree. He is wonderful and we need way more humans like him.

[@lulu480]

I have thought him to be a brilliant, versatile actor. And then to discover his activism and the opportunity to help his country and home town… well, he practically walks on water. 😉

[@livb6945]

I love Michael Sheen, and seeing his glorious curls is a great bonus 😊 Strange cut at the end though

'The Welsh part of the world called Wales' 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

[@KootFloris]

I assume there's also Welsh parts not called Wales?

[@HaifaaAmni]

@@KootFloris I don't think so LMAO

[@KootFloris]

@@HaifaaAmni Haha.

[@ladywiththecats]

@@KootFloris Well...there's Patagonia? It's not hugely Welsh, but Welsh settlers travelled there in the 19th century and there are still Welsh communities and even Welsh speakers there. So technically yes, there is a Welsh part of the world not called Wales!

[@leeduncan7881]

The homless world cup is truly an amazing thing. It's a dream of mine to play for team england at the homless world cup. I was homless for 3 years. Found football again during addiction. Now clean for nearly 3 and half years.

[@judyloukides]

I saw some interviews with players. It was so moving! I don't really care about sports, so I didn't understand the point. But for some of the players and coaches, it's the difference between life and death. I live in the US, and I plan to support the US teams in 2021.

[@leeduncan7881]

@@judyloukides Football isnt just a sport it's a way of life for a lot of people. I'm asd and find it hard to express myself in the right way. Football is my way of expressing myself. I use what I do on a football pitch or in coaching as I do in life. Like if I put 110% on the pitch, I also put 110% into life and always wanting to better myself. With the homeless world cup its helping to stop homelessness around the world. Being on 1 of the projects late last year. They really care and want to see you succeed and be the best version of your self. Not only that the people you meet on the way are so inspirational

[@Canuckmom128]

Love Michael Sheen. Such a great Actor and human. Very glad that he found a true love and has a daughter. ( I was hoping he and Sarah S. would end up as a fairytale couple, but it wasn't meant to be). When he speaks Welsh...well...just so lovely. Good on you, Michael, for going home and working to improve conditions there. Love the Covid hair ( mine is a slightly longer version of that, curls et all) and beard. 😂😂

[@KootFloris]

I've seen what happened to homeless people joining this cup, when it was in the Netherlands, and it was amazing. From feeling out of society, they turned heroes, they feel meaning and joy!

[@thegingergyrl455]

Oh, I love Michael. I needed this today. Thanks, James.

Well, when you're situated between Ireland and England!? But in all seriousness. Wales is great, as is the people who live there. So down to earth....and let's not forget for a little country. They have done some amazing things such as.... Create the NHS, invent the first fuel cell, Ball bearing, Inter-varsity sports, Queenbury rules, Mail Order, Packet Switching, The Longbow.

The village that Michael lives in, I will not give the real Welsh name (I will translate to a English as 90% of the places in Wales are in Welsh) Head of Valley to the Wild Boar

[@CTGrell]

So there was a wild boar around there? I would like to know the story behind that. I like the way places are named there. Sounds like how people describe places in fairytales

[@ja102346]

This entire commentary makes me sad. I am sure the my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ would NOT have suggested that anyone humiliate or make fun of people trying to share his word by pointing out their lack of knowledge of the Torah for example. In fact, I'm sure many scriptures can be found to the contrary of the disciples drawing people closer and encouraging their efforts no matter how small. I also would bet that many of these individuals have experienced humiliation at the hands of others and know how that feels. Why would any of them take part in a "ridicule" session???
