A Father's Love (Emotional Thai Insurance Ad)

*Disclaimer*: This is a random post.

So I recently learned that an insurance company in Thailand has been producing extremely emotional commercials that, thanks to YouTube, are reaching a global audience. The commercials depict the joys and pain associated with the human experience, while reminding potential customers of the company's desire to be there in their time of need.

I've read comments that the commercials shouldn't pull at consumers' heart strings to get them to purchase products, while other commenters are simply overwhelmed at the ingenuity of the company's PR team.

This is the one that really stood out to me. I cry pretty easily at "sad" commercials, but I didn't with this one because it warmed my spirit more than creating a sense of melancholy.

I'm a sucker for most things that deal with family closeness and bonding, so I wanted to share this. No other reason for it.

I just find it stunning is all.
