I made this video during a time when my mind was panicking and believing it was about to lose something without any chance of fixing it, because at the time I was worried as to whether or not I was capable of fixing it before things fell apart. I decided I wanted to put a particular energy into a video, and it was simple.
The definition of love and how I felt about my friends and my loved ones.
If the only way I knew how to communicate was to put emotions into a video, this was the only way to send the message out of how love was viewed by me. And though this video ends on a rather dark and mysterious note it also represents how love can and will always lead into bad things. It's just following the love to continue to make more good things.

DEFINITION OF HIGHER SELF:
The Higher Self is the version of yourself with no humanly emotional/mental blockages so you are fully yourself without any taint.
"Love is the unconditional acceptance of the higher self" means when you love yourself or another for who they are deep down, who they truly are despite any problem they face while trying to be themselves, or any faking personalities they do
To love the higher self is the deepest of loves.
There aren't any words throughout this because I've realized most of my videos lately have words telling you what to feel when you watch. I had to make you feel with just clips this time and let the images speak.
Here is an explanation of the video as written by my very intelligent friend Valerie who can somehow figure out the deepest of deepness in a video.
This was written before the video was finished and I had about 6 seconds to fill at the end.
"I meant what I said about it being just as powerful each time I watch it as if I'm seeing it for the first time all over again. To start with, I personally love how you started off with Vincent and Lucrecia, like at the beginning, where it all began, with Hojo and glimpses of Sephiroth. It draws you in to not only their story but the story that soon follows, Sephiroth's. Then I love how you ease into Zack's story by showing Angeal's death, the person whom they both had a huge connection to. So it shows their stories intertwined and helps it all connect and make sense. Seeing Zack's own heartache and inner turmoil through all this was really well done. To me the dumbapple that keeps appearing symbolizes all of their connections across time, the outcome of their decisions and lives carrying over to characters yet to show up, such as Cloud. Cloud's introduction to the video was perfect to me, it really showed him carrying the weight of Angeal and Zack, and through them Sephiroth. Tifa playing the new Aerith role for the 'new Zack', but also shows how Zack differs from Cloud and she from Aerith. So it gives them individuality, between him wanting to handle things alone to her waiting patiently yet wanting to help him but not knowing quite how. In a way it reminds me of you and Adam from some of what I hear at least. Then the moment of Cloud's sort of revelation, finding his will to go on so to speak, still gives me chills. Of when he sees the three of them and smiles, as if it just hit him on what he has to do. Which brings us to Sephiroth and his struggle with his own self truth and Jenova, later bringing about Kadaj who Cloud has to face. As Kadaj was returning to the Lifestream I love how the dumbapple appears and Sephiroth shakes his head as if to say it won't end this way, that he needs answers. The flashbacks and showing how Genesis who went down an alternative road to truth, sort of, turned out made me root for Sephiroth even more if possible for a few reasons, but at the same time I don't want Cloud also meaning Zack and Angeal to lose either. It's an incredible thing to want both sides of the fight to be victorious. So then the way you brought in those scenes and their voices really struck home and did it's job well. It made me, as the viewer, not get swept up in their own conflict and remember all that happened throughout this video and what it taught me about these special characters. So I'm honestly not sure how it should end, I'm very curious how you'll do it. and there you have my very LONG judgment of your video."
