Although you may not know who Zach Sobiech is now, you will never forget him after you watch this video. But brace yourself before you hit play. I can almost guarantee you’re going to need a handkerchief ready.

As a writer, editor and all-around creative, I know how easy it is to get lost in the minutia. Those who work in the media will understand where I’m coming from. We fret and worry about things that are ultimately trivial and usually beyond our control. We stare at ratings books and analytics reports as if they hold the answers to life’s most perplexing questions. We take criticism too seriously and we carry around life’s trivialities until they become backbreaking weights which we can never seem to shed. But in reality, those things aren’t important. Not a single one of them. Not really.

Watch this video, and you’ll see exactly what I mean. After you spend 20 minutes with Zach, I have a feeling you’ll get renewed perspective. I know I did. And that’s why I felt it was so important to share this with you. Open your heart and your mind, and let the power of this teen’s story change you forever.
