To This Day is a project based upon a spoken word poem by Shane Koyczan, who was taunted and bullied as a kid. Animators were invited to illustrate 20 seconds of the poem, which was woven together to create this masterpiece.
If you were bullied as a kid, how do you feel about this project?
How did you cope with being bullied?
What was it, in your life, that helped you believe that the bullies were wrong?
“You have to believe that they were wrong.”
As someone who was relentlessly bullied–and who, to this day, hates bullying more than anything else–my thought would be that the wounds never heal completely. And this is beautiful.

I actually wrote about how the past still rules me and how much this video effects me. http://www.losingtheshadow.com/2013/02/letting-past-rule-today.html
I still believe what I was told. It has been a big battle with me.
