When the lady came back to the bench he no longer ignored her reading his newspaper. He realized no one is too old for love and began talking to her. Shows you're never to old to learn even from a child. Such an inspiring story.

What did learn from that annoying little prick exactly?

[@rosemondfernand1798]

This is very piercing story.

[@user-dp9ym3dl8r]

At first, I thought the boy was a kind of meddler, who was seeking a human relationship with someone. Then I started to think he was a kind of an angel sent by the old man's wife in heaven. Joseph, the old man was at first grampy as the kid described, but then eventually he started to look for the small joy in life thanks to the small conversation led by the kid. This short film made me realize how important to break the ice between people through small talk. Thank you.

While watching this, i was in my dorm room alone whilst others were chilling in the kitchen. I realised that I'm exactly like the old man, always keeping to myself just because that's the introvert stereotype or it's how God made me. After watching I left my room and joined my dorm mates, we ended up taking a walk together and shared great stories. These short-films are something else, what a beautiful message.

The innocence of a child has nothing but sheer clarity to it. The child brought back honey to the grandpa soul!

Sometimes you think you are a gumby boring person, everyone cannot talk with you. But you forget that just open your heart, the good thing will come. And your life, of course, is not bored. Thank for the short video, inspired me to get a good day ahead.

[@ansh912]

You can get inspiration from anywhere and from anyone......even from younger ones. Truly a beautiful video.

great ending, no matter how old we get, we can still learn to be a little more wiser

[@teach4him2]

This touched my heart SO deeply!

[@jasonvoorhees5640]

why? because you hated the kid so much and you were happy when he stopped persecuting the old man?

Start conversation by Just appreciate his/her attire or anything u like most and ask about fr detail like shops or anything just tell them m new shifted here I hv no frnds can you go along with me if you don’t mind..!

[@happydays3678]

Ask them about themselves. People love to talk about themselves. Gets the conversation going, and hopefully they will reciprocate.

the kid doesn't judge that what keeps a live a fruitful conversation. he doesn't care wheb he gets told because he's so genuine and pure

[@iremgunes3137]

Now the child is 18 years old :)

[@sanimgulorazgulova7821]

after I had watched this short story I realized it’s never late to get a new relationship after losing your closest person, sharing your own life with someone is better way to forget about a loneliness

[@azizbekqosimov3530]

Forgetting sometimes leads a better life

[@liudmylapanasievych8891]

I think older people must tolk youth. Young people help seniors have a fresh outlook on life. It is good idea when children or teens can be volonteer and attend seniors in nursing home or spend time with their grandparents. Seniors share their wisdom and youth reminds of how simple life is.

[@princee6434]

Fantastic Short Film

[@kennymerilus1877]

After watching this instructive video. I understood two things. First, sincere dialogue could restore hope in despair and prevent human beings from some mental problems. Second, the possibility of learning doesn't depend on time or appearance.

[@displayer6048]

Learning never ends . And it is fact that to acquire knowledge age doesn't matter .

I thought this was a complete pile of crap... right up until the very end. Then I suddenly got it. Thank you for sharing. ❤

In my view this short film made me realise that there is always enough time to create love and relationships and meet new people Besides I didn’t really like the boy’s behaving because I believe that he is too young for this stuffs I mean he is only 8 🤷‍♀️.

I cried, a medium cry or medium hard. Great message in such a short vid. Just think, this is like a movie in 5 minutes, the whole point is conveyed in 5 minutes. Beautifully done. What a figity kid tho, LOL. Well done to the maker. I really wanted to see alot more. Like a whole movie of this. If this was a full length movie, this could be the scene like in th emiddle of the movie after the old man being disliked and grumpy, then this scene would happen then the man would learn what nobody else told him.
