Think again! This is a powerful video that was submitted in a contest by a 20 year old. The contest was Titled “u @ 50.” This video won second place. When they showed it , everyone in the room was awe-struck and broke into spontaneousapplause. So simple and yet so brilliant. Click here to watch this video.
