  1. I make a motion that this blog institute a tissue warning system. 5 tissues mean sobs and wails, 4 tissues mean a good cry, 3 means tears in your eyes, 2 means a solid "awwwwwwww" and you feel like a cry, 1 means no tears but it is still very moving and 0 tissues mean that it is a comedy. I had to break open a new box of tissues while watching.

    This is an amazing video. What is the video's story? How did this come about? Who did this and why? What is "Inspired by Ian"? When was it done?

    Thank you! Bullying is epidemic and people need to take a stand.

    1. I'm not really sure of the story behind the video. Sean had posted that pic of him a while ago at the request of one of his twitter followers. Inspired by Ian is a nonprofit that supports various human and animal rights issues. http://www.inspiredbyian.org/p/about.html

      Yeah, it makes me cry too. Bullying is one of those things like spousal abuse or child abuse that too often remains hidden and unacknowledged. We need to recognize it and do more to prevent it.
