i filmed the sunrise at 7am & did a little open-mind, spoken word about words over the footage! It was just one of those things that was on my mind lately - words & how powerful they can be. If you enjoyed the video, mind click the thumbs up & share it with a friend? It helps a lot & I would really appreciate it :) thanks all!
I met you in MOA in April and the experience was life changing. To see how far you've come from just last year is so inspirational. We will always support you and love you. Keep up the good work
"sticks and stones may break my bones but word will never hurt me"... that's a load of bull, words can have so much power behind them! So artsy, visually and mentally stimulating! Love it Connor!
"I’m not the only kid who grew up this way surrounded by people who used to say that rhyme about sticks and stones as if broken bones hurt more than the names we got called and we got called them all so we grew up believing no one would ever fall in love with us that we’d be lonely forever that we’d never meet someone to make us feel like the sun was something they built for us in their tool shed so broken heart strings bled the blues as we tried to empty ourselves so we would feel nothing don’t tell me that hurts less than a broken bone that an ingrown life is something surgeons can cut away that there’s no way for it to metastasize it does." -Shane Koyczan
This and Life doesn't wait are my two favorite videos from Con... They both make me cry and make me think about the world... And I love how Connor has this artistic eye for the world and through his camera can make everyone else see the world the beautiful way he does. And I love when he does poetry or something else over the footage. It just makes it that much more beautiful. Thank you Connor for making this masterpiece. xx
how can a person be more lovely than love, sweeter and dessert, kinder than kindness, cuter than cuteness and finally more inspiring than inspiration. This is my favorite comment I've written so far.
This video is magic. I don't mean to seem stupid or anything, but could anybody explain what he meant when he said how many different things can be said in many different ways, and then went from "hi" to "love"? Like was he talking about each word individually or hi = hey, hey = hello, hello = what's up ... ?
I think he was meaning that each of those is a different way of greeting someone...but I like the way you are thinking where each word equaled the next one, I hadn't thought of that and that's pretty cool
I think he meant that "I like your shit = "You look pretty today" and "I love you" = "You're my favorite person in the world" are also different sentences but they have the same meaning.
You know what words really meant something to me? All the words in your book. I just finished it today in a restaurant and started crying in front of everybody eating there. Connor, you are such an inspiration and you make me want to be such a better and more beautiful person. I'm going to change how I live and be who I want to be because of you. Thank you for being so great
I know this sounds cheesy but I didn't even watch the video. I just listened and it had such an effect on everything I thought. If one person who made a two minute video could effect a few people imagine what all of us could do if we worked as a team to put the message Connor had in this video out into the world...
ConnorFranta Connor can i just take a moment to thank you on behalf of everyone here for continuing to inspire us everyday to stay positive, live in the moment and to never be afraid to be who we are, lots of love, Georgia (and anyone else who agrees)
I feel like this video is the whole explanation of one Taylor Swift lyric from the song You Are In Love.. "You can hear it in the silence." Great video Connor, I would tell you how much I loved it but I just can't put it into words. :)
'there are moments when silence is just perfect' personally, i dont enjoy silence since it just leads me to thinking. Though at times thinking for a few seconds is calming it would turn into deep emotional thoughts that have me contemplating my life and the point of it, then i'd get very concerned with my thoughts and beg for it to not be true. idk, personally i dont enjoy silence. gREAT VIDEO THOUGH
I don't know how I feel about silence because it leaves me alone with my thoughts. And often when I'm thinking I think bad thoughts about how insignificant and meaningless my life is. But then I try to reason with my self by telling myself that that my family and friends love me and thing my life has purpose. And sometimes I think of good ideas in silence. Sorry for wasting your time with this comment.
me too. i feel more comfortable in a loud filled room than a silent one. it distracts me from reality in a way, because with silence comes sadness. thats for me, at least ^3^
Connor there's something about you that I just can't let go. You're so amazingly artsy and humble and lovely. Thankyou for just being you and inspiring me and countless other teens to be the best they can be
I love these kind of vlogs of yours.... I don't know, they're just so calming to me and it actually makes me happy, to listen to it at night... this was just beautiful.
I'm crying... This moved me in a way no one has ever done before... I had no idea wether to smile or cry. I just love Connor so much and the little videos he makes like this just brings me to tears of joy.
The most amazing thing about Connor Franta,I think, is his mind and his heart. He's so intelligent and clever and shows us simplicity at its finest. That is truly phenomenal.
Dear Connor, You are my role model in life. I'm just a few chapters from finishing your book, and let me tell you it's fucking amazing. You have such an amazing mindset, such beautiful, human thoughts. You're very young, but i feel like you've experienced a lot. I want to some day in life be like you. I don't mean being a big famous youtuber, more like, having amazing thoughts, being creative, being myself and being able to do what I want in life, and be happy with it. By this point, you're the person that has changed my mind the most, and changed for good. I started your book thinking my life is unextraordinary, and I finished it (almost) with a whole new life perspective. You taught me so much even though you don't even know I exist, and that is mind blowing. You taught me to do whatever makes me happy. To be racional, to be humble, to be honest, to be open, to be myself. And as much as I thought I was myself before I started your book, now I know I wasn't. My life still has a lot to go through. I know I'm young, but I get this one life, and I want to spend it as happily as I can. I want to follow my dreams, I want to express myself, so why not start now? They said "oh, you're too young to sell your artwork", "you're too young to have such mature thoughts" and I always listened, I always said "okay, sorry", and I always accepted I'm too young. But you, Connor, you changed my mind. You taught me to do whatever I want to in this life. And ever since I learned these things from you, I started feeling a lot better. I started appreciating the little details, I started expressing myself in many ways, I started to cut off those friends i thought were worth my time, even though they weren't, I started to surround myself with a much more supporting and happier enviornment. And all of this thanks to you. This letter can't explain even the slightest bit of how grateful I am to stumble across you in the internet. Thanks to you, I've been more appreciative and open minded. You're the best human I've ever known of. Keep doing what you're doing. Keep inspiring. Sincerely, Mel. xx
I love to hear Connor sound so inspirational. I've seen this video seven times today and I'm gonna watch it again. I think you really should make these a lot.
Aiyana HoranStyles I agree and I think he will! I make similar videos in this style so if you want to check them out, feel free! Have a wonderful day :)
in the absence of words, in moments passed by silence... feelings could be conveyed more than you could imagine... this is beautiful connor, thank you for sharing
Omg I'm so early yaaas. Perks of refreshing your channel for the past hour. But this video is amazing. I loved your voice over and all the nature and stuff you recorded. It's beautiful. I see why it's potentially your favorite of 2015 ^~^
It'd be cool to see more youtubers do videos like this. Lately I haven't been as content with the kind of content that vloggers make, which is a shame because I'm all for #TeamInternet and all.
More than anything, silence is key. Sometimes if you speak it would end a friendship. Sometimes silence is what keeps people going. Sometimes... silence is needed more than any words on this planet. This video was really uplifting and powerful to me. It was just simply beautiful.
This was so inspirational. I wish that there was more content like this. It's the only time when I think about the things truly because in a video where its very hyper (this isn't just exclusive to Connor, its quite a lot of people) it just feels like at some point you kinda lose the whole meaning of some videos. This was just so amazing and I didn't just see it as some tumblr style video, I saw it with a different meaning. This just made me listen and forget everything manic. at one point, it made me quite emotional and I don't know why. I just think that Connor, never stop doing what you are doing, and that goes for everyone. ~Olivia. Aged 12.
Also I just wanted to thank you Connor :) when you made the video ‘Coming Out’ I literally cried because there were more LGBT people in the world. I'm bisexual, and even if my family are against LGBT rights I don't mind, because I know that there are even more people who will support me. Thanks so much for giving me courage to tell everyone about my sexuality. It feels so good to get it off my chest. I hope you see this comment and reply because it'll mean the world to me. Because indirectly, you've helped me cope with my depression since my sexuality was what caused it. THANK YOU CONNOR!
I'm 50% sure Connor just sits down for like 30 minutes and types a bunch of these in his notes on his phone and these are the few of many we get to see on what goes through his mind off camera.
Bella Mateo I think he does that too! I have some videos in this similar style and that's my process in doing it, although he might be winging it for all we know lol
Connor has my dream job. I want to make videos like this and just be a photographer. Out of all the little things in my life I want to be famous my way, I want to be famous for being me. I want to be famous a different way from everyone else. I want to be famous for being myself and taking photos or nature and videos just like these ones. I don't want to be famous for talking about makeup or "What's it my purse" or even back to school halls. I don't want to be famous for singing or dancing and I don't want to be famous for just being the biggest idiot and making fun of people. Connor has inspired me and I'm very happy he did, He made me proud of myself. I proud of myself for being a girl and not liking girly things, I'm proud of my self for having best friend and just having friends in general even though most of my friends are boys I still have fun with them. I still talk about the same things, I say the same way, and I'm proud of that and I'm proud of Connor. I love you Connor and thank you so much. If you read all of this thank you so much.
Yeah, then do it now. Because life won't ask you what you want. You'll need to work out your way. So stop talking about your dream job. If it is your actual dream, prove it.
Thank you! I never believed in myself doing this kind of stuff until I found Connor and after a year he did this kind of stuff on this channel I also then bought his book witch has inspired me in so many different ways. I am honestly in love with these videos It gives me a feeling, the feeling when you finally believe in yourself. And it's the best feeling in the world, just to believe in yourself.
TheShadowknows1964 I agree with you - I want to be famous for me. And for my creative ways. I want to inspire people and move them. Connor does such an excellent job doing this and it keeps me pushing forward. It keeps me believing in myself to continue making videos, to continue being creative, to keep expressing who I truly am.
I freaking love this videos, they make me want to do new stuff, meet new people, visit new places, find beauty in little things, and just achieve my dreams. And make me remember that life, is not to be spent stressing over things, and being sad, but being the best you can be, have fun and be happy.
Before I found Connor, I didnt know what I love to do, I didn't know what I am passionate for, and I didn't know what am I going to be when I grow up. I felt like I needed to think about this now before time passes by. When I knew Connor has a passion for photography, I immediately thought about my love for photography too. I've always wanted to be a photographer as long as I can remember. And by his personality and passion, I found out of who I wanna be when I grow up. I wanna be a photographer but I also want to share a lot of things in mind on the Internet. And that's why I also wanna be a TH-camr. I'm glad that I found out what I am passionate about, but for now on, I feel like taking beautiful picture is what I'm working on right now. I know that this comment might be a non sense to some of you, but all I want to say is thank you so so much for inspiring me and for being such a change in my life. I couldn't thank enough for all that you did. Love you lots x
I have been having these exact thoughts lately.... Recently I went sailing with some friends and after a while I realized that no one was talking.... but it wasn't awkward, it was nice, it was comfortable, it was peaceful. In that instant I realized that those were the moments to hold out for...
These kinda videos are cool and have a unique thing on its own. I loved it. It felt like another world and the words and how you said it with the imagery you showed was epic. Lovely too. You should make videos like this. There was another one too if I remember well. I love it. Keep making more. Look forward to it. LOVE YA CONNOR xoxox
I love how you compare things, and how you point out things, and how you are so incredibly inspiring. Thanks Connor, even though you will never know me or see this, still, I just want to say, thank you.
It is weird that I've seen connor so many times and I love him so much that I could visualize him and his way of saying and expression and everything during every moment of this video?
i filmed the sunrise at 7am & did a little open-mind, spoken word about words over the footage! It was just one of those things that was on my mind lately - words & how powerful they can be.
If you enjoyed the video, mind click the thumbs up & share it with a friend? It helps a lot & I would really appreciate it :) thanks all!
I love you !

Me 2
those are my favourite kind od Connor's videos. I just love them.
same
Same, but also his videos where he seems drunk but he’s not drunk. Lol
"sticks and stones may break my bones but word will never hurt me"... that's a load of bull, words can have so much power behind them! So artsy, visually and mentally stimulating! Love it Connor!
AJ Sanchez
AJ Sanchez dude you replied to yourself. lol ♥
The sticks and stones they through at me but me an empire so don't even try 🎵🎵👌
I think that's the point not that words can never hurt but standing up and not letting them hurt that's what it's always meant to me anyways
"I’m not the only kid
who grew up this way
surrounded by people who used to say
that rhyme about sticks and stones
as if broken bones
hurt more than the names we got called
and we got called them all
so we grew up believing no one
would ever fall in love with us
that we’d be lonely forever
that we’d never meet someone
to make us feel like the sun
was something they built for us
in their tool shed
so broken heart strings bled the blues
as we tried to empty ourselves
so we would feel nothing
don’t tell me that hurts less than a broken bone
that an ingrown life
is something surgeons can cut away
that there’s no way for it to metastasize
it does."
-Shane Koyczan
This and Life doesn't wait are my two favorite videos from Con... They both make me cry and make me think about the world...

Faith O Brien So agree!
how can a person be more lovely than love, sweeter and dessert, kinder than kindness, cuter than cuteness and finally more inspiring than inspiration. This is my favorite comment I've written so far.
Preach
You're very eloquent, that was beautiful. Describes Connor perfectly.
Eliana 22 i
This video is so well edited! Tumblr AF
:)
Ya it was super tumblr
why don't u listen to what he's actually saying instead of being like "tumblr 😋"
Connor's artsy videos are literally *life*. He's so good at making them.
These videos are my favorite to watch on his channel!
Love your videos as well Theresa :) Your subscriber 💕
Name buddies
This video is magic.
I don't mean to seem stupid or anything,
but could anybody explain what he meant when he said how many different things can be said in many different ways, and then went from "hi" to "love"? Like was he talking about each word individually or hi = hey, hey = hello, hello = what's up ... ?

LoveTheShortestOne Thank you! And thanks for the explanation. Have a great day
You could say those words as greetings to mean so many things. You can say I love you to a close friend, or a significant other, or a family member.
Meg Renee Oh okay that's a third theory. A lot of thinking involved with this video but love it lol, thanks :)
I think he meant that "I like your shit = "You look pretty today" and "I love you" = "You're my favorite person in the world" are also different sentences but they have the same meaning.
I truly love videos like this! Connor my wish is for you to do more videos like this because they are so meaningful and i love them!
Nicky & Annie like this s connor sees!!!
Nicky & Annie they're super difficult to make, so i can only manage to make them every couple of months if i'm lucky
Nicky & Annie Same! I've tried to make some videos in this style but idk if they even come close to his
ConnorFranta aww i am so happy you took my comment into consideration and replied!
You know what words really meant something to me? All the words in your book. I just finished it today in a restaurant and started crying in front of everybody eating there. Connor, you are such an inspiration and you make me want to be such a better and more beautiful person. I'm going to change how I live and be who I want to be because of you. Thank you for being so great
This is the most perfect video ever
Jess Lloyd AGREE!!
Literally crying like a little baby

I feel like this video is the whole explanation of one Taylor Swift lyric from the song You Are In Love..
"You can hear it in the silence."
Great video Connor, I would tell you how much I loved it but I just can't put it into words. :)

Only Connor can film random things and make it artistic...
That's true
You might like Christian Novelli :>
Dakota Wint, too
Will Darbyshire is pretty darn good at it
'there are moments when silence is just perfect'
personally, i dont enjoy silence since it just leads me to thinking. Though at times thinking for a few seconds is calming it would turn into deep emotional thoughts that have me contemplating my life and the point of it, then i'd get very concerned with my thoughts and beg for it to not be true. idk, personally i dont enjoy silence. gREAT VIDEO THOUGH
hesitant meme same(that Gerard tho..)
I don't know how I feel about silence because it leaves me alone with my thoughts. And often when I'm thinking I think bad thoughts about how insignificant and meaningless my life is. But then I try to reason with my self by telling myself that that my family and friends love me and thing my life has purpose. And sometimes I think of good ideas in silence. Sorry for wasting your time with this comment.
I loved the video. It was really inspiring and creative. :) @(^_^)@
nah brah its cool! totally agree,
me too. i feel more comfortable in a loud filled room than a silent one. it distracts me from reality in a way, because with silence comes sadness. thats for me, at least ^3^
I love when he makes videos like this!

DivergentDemigod obviously it was a mistake that wasnt corrected by the commenter themselves
Teija Purvis sorry didnt mean to offend anyone... just noticed.
DivergentDemigod it's okay so did I just kinda trying to clarify
The shots are so beautiful, the quotes so inspiring and the music so relaxing. This is just perfect!
I love these kind of videos so much they just kind of take my mind to that 'different world' ppl talk about but never understand
I love it when he makes these videos

oh my gosh.. I'm crying. that made my day, Connor. I love you so much❤️❤️❤️
The most amazing thing about Connor Franta,I think, is his mind and his heart. He's so intelligent and clever and shows us simplicity at its finest. That is truly phenomenal.
Dear Connor,
You are my role model in life. I'm just a few chapters from finishing your book, and let me tell you it's fucking amazing.
You have such an amazing mindset, such beautiful, human thoughts. You're very young, but i feel like you've experienced a lot. I want to some day in life be like you. I don't mean being a big famous youtuber, more like, having amazing thoughts, being creative, being myself and being able to do what I want in life, and be happy with it.
By this point, you're the person that has changed my mind the most, and changed for good.
I started your book thinking my life is unextraordinary, and I finished it (almost) with a whole new life perspective. You taught me so much even though you don't even know I exist, and that is mind blowing. You taught me to do whatever makes me happy. To be racional, to be humble, to be honest, to be open, to be myself. And as much as I thought I was myself before I started your book, now I know I wasn't. My life still has a lot to go through. I know I'm young, but I get this one life, and I want to spend it as happily as I can. I want to follow my dreams, I want to express myself, so why not start now? They said "oh, you're too young to sell your artwork", "you're too young to have such mature thoughts" and I always listened, I always said "okay, sorry", and I always accepted I'm too young. But you, Connor, you changed my mind. You taught me to do whatever I want to in this life. And ever since I learned these things from you, I started feeling a lot better. I started appreciating the little details, I started expressing myself in many ways, I started to cut off those friends i thought were worth my time, even though they weren't, I started to surround myself with a much more supporting and happier enviornment. And all of this thanks to you.
This letter can't explain even the slightest bit of how grateful I am to stumble across you in the internet.
Thanks to you, I've been more appreciative and open minded.
You're the best human I've ever known of. Keep doing what you're doing. Keep inspiring.
Sincerely,
Mel. xx
I love to hear Connor sound so inspirational. I've seen this video seven times today and I'm gonna watch it again. I think you really should make these a lot.
Aiyana HoranStyles I agree and I think he will! I make similar videos in this style so if you want to check them out, feel free! Have a wonderful day :)
Aiyana HoranStyles I wish he made more of these!
Jessica Spencer I know right
THE CINEMATOGRAPHY IS SO BEAUTIFUL
in the absence of words, in moments passed by silence... feelings could be conveyed more than you could imagine... this is beautiful connor, thank you for sharing
Omg I'm so early yaaas. Perks of refreshing your channel for the past hour.
But this video is amazing. I loved your voice over and all the nature and stuff you recorded. It's beautiful. I see why it's potentially your favorite of 2015 ^~^
Anyone else wish they could thumbs this up x100000
Kara Wilson ?
It'd be cool to see more youtubers do videos like this. Lately I haven't been as content with the kind of content that vloggers make, which is a shame because I'm all for #TeamInternet and all.
More than anything, silence is key. Sometimes if you speak it would end a friendship. Sometimes silence is what keeps people going. Sometimes... silence is needed more than any words on this planet. This video was really uplifting and powerful to me. It was just simply beautiful.
such a powerful and beautiful message - loved this video connor 💕
2:12 What if his camera fell off the edge
Blupee thats what i was thinking
the thing he had his camera on looked pretty thick to me
Blupee I thought the same, I would not be able to film this :p
Troye was probably holding it 😂
Blupee art is risk
Connors content is pure inspiration.
This is so well done. The commentary is thought provoking, the images are beautiful, and the editing really pulls it all in. Amazing work, Connor!
This was so inspirational. I wish that there was more content like this. It's the only time when I think about the things truly because in a video where its very hyper (this isn't just exclusive to Connor, its quite a lot of people) it just feels like at some point you kinda lose the whole meaning of some videos. This was just so amazing and I didn't just see it as some tumblr style video, I saw it with a different meaning. This just made me listen and forget everything manic. at one point, it made me quite emotional and I don't know why. I just think that Connor, never stop doing what you are doing, and that goes for everyone. ~Olivia. Aged 12.
Olivia Bellamy Amazing message! I agree 100%!I make similar videos in this style so if you want to check them out, feel free! Have a wonderful day :)
i still come back to this
me too :)
Also I just wanted to thank you Connor :) when you made the video ‘Coming Out’ I literally cried because there were more LGBT people in the world. I'm bisexual, and even if my family are against LGBT rights I don't mind, because I know that there are even more people who will support me. Thanks so much for giving me courage to tell everyone about my sexuality. It feels so good to get it off my chest. I hope you see this comment and reply because it'll mean the world to me. Because indirectly, you've helped me cope with my depression since my sexuality was what caused it. THANK YOU CONNOR!
It's beautiful....the empty streets and the colours playing in the sky...beautiful!
I'm 50% sure Connor just sits down for like 30 minutes and types a bunch of these in his notes on his phone and these are the few of many we get to see on what goes through his mind off camera.
Bella Mateo I think he does that too! I have some videos in this similar style and that's my process in doing it, although he might be winging it for all we know lol
Connor has my dream job. I want to make videos like this and just be a photographer. Out of all the little things in my life I want to be famous my way, I want to be famous for being me. I want to be famous a different way from everyone else. I want to be famous for being myself and taking photos or nature and videos just like these ones. I don't want to be famous for talking about makeup or "What's it my purse" or even back to school halls. I don't want to be famous for singing or dancing and I don't want to be famous for just being the biggest idiot and making fun of people. Connor has inspired me and I'm very happy he did, He made me proud of myself. I proud of myself for being a girl and not liking girly things, I'm proud of my self for having best friend and just having friends in general even though most of my friends are boys I still have fun with them. I still talk about the same things, I say the same way, and I'm proud of that and I'm proud of Connor. I love you Connor and thank you so much. If you read all of this thank you so much.
And thank you so much you inspired me into all of this and also if anyone read all of this. Thank you so much :)
Go ahead and do just that. With that kind of attitude, you'll be able to fight through any battles that come your way. :)
Yeah, then do it now. Because life won't ask you what you want. You'll need to work out your way. So stop talking about your dream job. If it is your actual dream, prove it.
Thank you! I never believed in myself doing this kind of stuff until I found Connor and after a year he did this kind of stuff on this channel I also then bought his book witch has inspired me in so many different ways. I am honestly in love with these videos It gives me a feeling, the feeling when you finally believe in yourself. And it's the best feeling in the world, just to believe in yourself.
TheShadowknows1964 I agree with you - I want to be famous for me. And for my creative ways. I want to inspire people and move them. Connor does such an excellent job doing this and it keeps me pushing forward. It keeps me believing in myself to continue making videos, to continue being creative, to keep expressing who I truly am.
some idiot: Connor Franta is just a youtuber he just talks to a camera
Me: *shows this video*
I freaking love this videos, they make me want to do new stuff, meet new people, visit new places, find beauty in little things, and just achieve my dreams. And make me remember that life, is not to be spent stressing over things, and being sad, but being the best you can be, have fun and be happy.
Before I found Connor, I didnt know what I love to do, I didn't know what I am passionate for, and I didn't know what am I going to be when I grow up. I felt like I needed to think about this now before time passes by. When I knew Connor has a passion for photography, I immediately thought about my love for photography too. I've always wanted to be a photographer as long as I can remember. And by his personality and passion, I found out of who I wanna be when I grow up. I wanna be a photographer but I also want to share a lot of things in mind on the Internet. And that's why I also wanna be a TH-camr. I'm glad that I found out what I am passionate about, but for now on, I feel like taking beautiful picture is what I'm working on right now. I know that this comment might be a non sense to some of you, but all I want to say is thank you so so much for inspiring me and for being such a change in my life. I couldn't thank enough for all that you did. Love you lots x
this song is my life.
jordeecakes jay hey what song is it? :)
I loved this so much, Connor
cyandanjou so much words can't even explain
I have been having these exact thoughts lately.... Recently I went sailing with some friends and after a while I realized that no one was talking.... but it wasn't awkward, it was nice, it was comfortable, it was peaceful. In that instant I realized that those were the moments to hold out for...
These kinda videos are cool and have a unique thing on its own. I loved it. It felt like another world and the words and how you said it with the imagery you showed was epic. Lovely too. You should make videos like this. There was another one too if I remember well. I love it. Keep making more. Look forward to it. LOVE YA CONNOR xoxox

It is weird that I've seen connor so many times and I love him so much that I could visualize him and his way of saying and expression and everything during every moment of this video?
