Everything she said was beautiful about catching love close not far away...I took that as look what's around and appreciate the little things bec that's what matters not materialistic things.
Buzzfeed, PLEASE make a series of Kane and his mother traveling together to China, Japan, and wherever else she wants to go. Just let the woman travel. And buy her some lottery tickets, too.

Well he means anything bad happens to her. She is proabably healthy but he is just saying that he wants to say before she gets Some deadly sickness or before she dies of old age. So the mom proabably dosent have a deadly sickness.
Despite not being fluent in English, what the mother tries to share speaks to you in a deep emotional level. With very few words, she was able to say profound things.
My parents both passed away in a motorcycle accident when I was 12, but I am always happy when people actually cherish their parents when they've been blessed enough to still have them. I obviously can't ask my parents these questions, but seeing you ask them, and seeing your mom's responses is a kind thing to share with all of us. I may not have my own mom's answers, but I'll gladly accept and heed your mom's advice in her place. Thank you.
the_andi _Just think they are in better place . Always they will be in your heart. Watching this video is just making me to feel so positive and looking forward you must do the same . I am more than sure your parents with be always on your side . Help yourself and god will help you!
Buzzfeed please send this woman on a wonderful trip!!!! Please God, this woman deserves it! Or set her up a nice fund she can use to do things she loves... I will gladly donate what I can and I'm sure many others would as well!
Meka Malice I completely agree, she has worked so hard most of her life, she just wanted to be happy and relax. I'd donate if they gave her a fund to travel or something that just makes her happy.
“I plant flowers for us to look at... when I see a flower bloom I am happy” Idk why that also works so beautifully as an analogy for how she got her children and raised them to be successful, nurtured them to bloom. *leaves room crying*
I want Buzzfeed to do an video called "Kane + his parents go on a 10 day luxury cruise" cuz I feel like Mama Diep deserves a super nice vacation and also it would be adorable.
That's the point, she finds joy in life, not things. What a wonderful out look on tomorrow. I was happy yesterday, today there was joy and tomorrow there's a hope. I try to live that way, rarely succeed, continue to try...I'm grateful to see the joy in her eyes & smile...that's contentment. That's real...
She said: "Don't chase things that are way out of reach. It makes you unhappy and frustrated. Focus on the things close to you. It's the simple things that make you happy." So much wisedom in those few words
If everyone had the same happiness your mother has the world would be so much better. I wish everyone had her mindset. God truly put her here to be a piece of sunshine in all she comes across
Did you have to insert God into this? Seriously, she's a piece of sunshine without people pushing their religion into things. It undermines the whole compliment.
Kiru Did you really have to comment on this? Seriously, ppl should stop judging others on their own beliefs. We all believe in something or not, that doesn't mean should all hate each other for it. The point is not to criticize and judge others. You're comment undermines this compliment. Sorry for lashing out at you but I'm sure this person wasn't intending to push their beliefs on you. LET US ALL SPREAD POSITIVITY. I know this comment is not positive either & i apologize but I thought it was rude that you posted that when this person had nothing bad to say.
Your mom is too pure for words. Tell her that she is lovely, she is beautiful and we all wish her the best. Please have Buzzfeed sponsor a trip for your parents to go to China. It would be a dope video, like "parents get surprise dream trip come true!"
@@lis7742 just don't stress about bc we are always told we have to maximize our productivity, achievement and live life to its fullest. But living it to its fullest does not necessarily mean the happiest version of your life. Still, the advice is valuable of course. Just don't feel bad for not following it perfectly
@@LI-cg1nr I like to think that when she says "Don't waste time," it doesn't necessarily have anything to do with productivity. Sometimes, we waste time by just harnessing negative energy instead of enjoying what's around us.
Schau Schau my dad is a immigrant from Mexico, I remember when I was little he got shot at. He has no communication with my older brothers or his parents. A few weeks ago he pulled over to help a woman stranded on the street and she got scared saying “don’t rob me, don’t hurt me or I will call the police” hard life being a immigrant
She deserves to go on vacation in style in comfort. No worries about money. Stylish comfy clothes. Every meal paid for. Kane's Dad, too, because they're still a couple of crazy kids in love.
This woman just changed my perspective on things.I'm constantly worrying and complaining about things like college and even silly things like wanting new trendy clothes but I realised life moves on, things will turn out to be just fine and the answer to happiness is simple and is within you.
Being from an Vietnamese immigrant family, these stories really put life into perspective and I'm pretty grateful to have grown up hearing many of them. The little problems we have today are nothing compared to the problems our parents have faced in the past trying to escape war torn countries.. Makes me feel weak when I worry / complain about stuff as well. The stories of my parents are really what keeps me going. Can't give up after all they've gone through...
I remember telling my mum, "You remember that moment when your dad passed away and you could never tell him again how much you loved him? That's how much I love you."
"Don't think far away, far away, how you catch? You catch close." That has so much wisdom. Your mom is truly inspiration. Thank you! Now that I still have the chance, I want to know more about my parents. I might learn a thing or two.

"Don't think far away, far away, how can you catch?" What a lovely way of thinking. I plan to meditate and really absorb her wisdom. I agree that looking past what's right in front of you keeps you from seeing those small beautiful moments. Planning so far in the future creates anxiety and unhappiness. Not to say we should be reckless and financially irresponsible. Just that we should look at the beauty that's right in front of us. Cherish the smiles you pass on to others. Cherish the purest form of love from your children.
I am in the process of writing my dissertation. I am 26 and even though I wasn't born into a war I was born into poverty. I grew up in an orphanage. As soon as I turned 18 I ran away from my country and moved to the UK. I only had about 100gbp (not sure about dollars, but around the same). I lived in the cheapest hostels. I worked the worst jobs. I learned English from the cratch. I managed to go to college and I am now graduating with my doctorate in Psychology. Your mom just inspired me. I am inspired to just feel happy with what I have, and I am inspired to go and finish my goddamn dissertation. Thank you
I wouldn’t confuse her lack of English for innocence. She grew up in war in Vietnam, you don’t leave that with innocence. She is so experienced in tragedy in life that instead of complaining about how hard it was she looks for everything positive in life that’ll make herself smile.
@@rhetthammond6254 by innocent here I meant 'not be informed' so like she does not know what make love means in 'that sense'. But I totally get you point
Your mom brought me to tears. She reminded me there is so much to be happy for. She reminded me that you can find happiness in times when you think there is none to be found.
"happy is close" "if too far, how you catch it?" Some supreme words that really made me think... They also brought tears to my eyes... Great advice she had. Thank you for doing this video
I can’t express how beautiful I thought this video was. Her answers really made me think and humbled me as a person. I realize I’ve spent so much time not appreciating how many blessings I’ve had. God bless your mom. She’s an awesome woman.

When Kane asked his mom how hard was her childhood and she said, “very hard”, already got me tearing up. I can’t imagine the hardships and sacrifices the older generation had to go through growing up. I love his parents, I love this video.
I'm in tears. "Happy very easy. Not try to want to take this, want to take that. Everything around us have the happy. You look your mom's place. Anywhere it hap love. Don't think far away, far away. How you catch? You catch close. See?"
i'm not joking, when your mom was talking about how easy it is to be happy and find happiness in the little things- it literally changed my life. like my perception on things.
Growing up in war times probably is what made Kane's mom appreciate the little things in life and find joy in simple things. It's really easy to forget just how much happiness you can find and experience living a pretty simple life. It's a great life philosophy to live by, tbh.
People of asian culture..Like the safety net of knowing your spouse from the similar environment..Whether it's school friend, college friend, son/daughter of a friend..So we know the background or the behaviour of that person before jump into marriage..Off course, the simplest way is by matchmaking..😂
She’s an absolutely amazing woman and I have so much respect for her. Despite having a hard childhood/teenager time she never gave up and is an amazing & happy woman now.
I don't usually comment on videos but this is awesome. Her outlook on life is so pure. "Everything around us have the happy. You look, your mom's place, anywhere it has love. Don't think far away, far away, how you catch? You catch close. See?"... Damn, Mama Diep has me questioning my whole outlook on life right now 😅
"Happiness is easy. It's in everything around us, it's anywhere there is love." Best advice ever. This woman is so pure. She deserves everything good in the world. ❤
10:20 when she said "see" it got me chills it sounded so genuine and sincere,and it was the best word she said in English too(^^)she is so cute I admire how strong she was for her children they look like really good parents.
Whew, very tough to not get emotional here. This is why I relate so much to people that come from an immigrant family background. So many similarities, it's remarkable.

She's got the right outlook on life, that's for sure. What an amazing woman! I am totally hoping that Buzzfeed will sponser her trip to China and we get a video montage of it!! ^^
I can't stop crying... This was amazing... Just to be able to sit down and talk to your mom is more than enough... Momman Kane is so admirable and reminds me so much of my mom who I love more than words can describe!
The way your beautiful mama describes true happiness reminds me of the book Selected Poems of T'ao Ch'ien. Just finding a few simple things that bring us true joy, and being able to be happy with what we have and not simply looking further or always living in scarcity. Seeing the abundance around us. She has so much wisdom, it's truly amazing.

"Everything around us have the happy. Everything around us has love Don't think far away, how you catch? You catch close. Everyday we thank you. That means happy. If you can't catch you feel upset and boring. Around us everything's easy to enjoy and feel happy." This part got me so choked up.
this made me cry, just thinking of the way good parents struggle to give their kids everything and never have enough time for themselves or they sacrifice their dreams to give more to their family. she should be retired but is still doing for others. this is admirable but i feel sad for her as well. i think Kane realized that although she's happy, she deserves more than just an average life. She should get to travel to some place unexpected, beautiful and magical.

Recommendation: you should conduct these interviews with her entirely in her native language and provide subtitles for the audience. I did a historical project in which I interviewed my mum and I had her speak in our native language, in which she is very well versed and she provided more information and depth about the topic than when we tried it in English.
this is actually make me cry.. i lost my mom 3 dyas before my 20th birthday, i never say anything meaningfull to her and i wasnt even able to make her happy yet to see you at least have a chance to do this with your mom, u're already blessed dude
Well of course you made her happy my dear. She had 20 yrs of happiness with you just by being her child. My deepest condolences to you and your family.
You being born was her happiness... you made her the happiest woman in the world without even trying 💕 You're an incredibly strong human being, don't forget that 😓👊
I cried when she said everything about being happy, catching what is close. I got that she was trying to express that you should be happy of what you have. She is so wholesome and generous to everything around her, that is how I aspire to be.
Her English was not perfect but what she said was perfect
And THAT was the PERFECT comment ❤
gee rudolph and that was a perfect reply
@@RealJairoSantos and that was also a perfect reply❤️
And these are perfect people ♥️
Everything she said was beautiful about catching love close not far away...I took that as look what's around and appreciate the little things bec that's what matters not materialistic things.
I love her logic on the phrase "make love"
Kane is an adult now and still doesn't know how he was marked.
❤
adorable 😘
I like it much better than the typical usage. I wish it was more universal!
Supreme WarLord me too it’s beautiful real love 40 years
Buzzfeed, PLEASE make a series of Kane and his mother traveling together to China, Japan, and wherever else she wants to go. Just let the woman travel. And buy her some lottery tickets, too.
Diva380 and Dad. This couple is so in love after all they have gone through. They deserve the rest and the excitement together.
Diva380 yas,
Diva380 I agree
BuzzFeed better pay for this woman to travel, I'd love to watch that. She definitely deserves it
The least they can do is buy her some plane tickets, since they have probably gotten so much money from the videos his mom has been in
"I see a flower bloom, I am happy"- beautiful.
Courageous, never complaining, hard working, dignified, your mother is a treasure.
Yep 😃
😭❤
She put such a smile on my face in this video.
"But mom, you need time for youself too."
"I plant flowers for us to look at. Isnt tgat for myself?"
This woman is blessing

She said find joy in the little things. Dont have to look far for happiness, its all around you. Wow.
Yeah, people these days get triggered for the smallest of things..
That's a game changer for me, I've never thought of things like that
Yea I felt that!
I have a lot to learn from your sweet Mom and I'm a Grandma myself. 😍
That’s so wise!
“Before it’s too late”
I’m not crying, you are. 😢😢
that goo goo dolls song
Hooold on, before its too late"
No my eyes are sweating
No, you.
You cry-baby.
Well he means anything bad happens to her. She is proabably healthy but he is just saying that he wants to say before she gets
Some deadly sickness or before she dies of old age. So the mom proabably dosent have a deadly sickness.

lets do it!!
"When I see a flower bloom, I am happy" - what a sweet and wonderful woman she is. 🌹🏵🌸🌹🏵🌷⚘🌼🌻🌺🌱
That is the most innocent sentence I read today. Lol
And what a terrific green thumb she has. Even if that tree didn't 100% look like a turtle, it looked darned healthy.
Almost like the teachings of Thich Nhat Hanh. The flower holds my smile.
She sounds like my parents 😢 I always ask why they garden so much and they say " it's something beautiful. Dont we all like something beautiful? "

Don't leave the room, just watch through the tears like me.
i want to like but don't want to ruin the 444

So true.
Made me cry.

Eli mtz yes! their fanbase is so big, if they make this trip into a series itll be worth it for buzzfeed. everyone wins!
Eli mtz Aren't they from Vietnam? She is speaking Vietnamese. He also referenced the Vietnam War.
At 11:10 they talk about how she's Chinese and has never been to China. The family may be from Vietnam but they're ethnically Chinese
Yeah she's speaking Cantonese so her family is most likely from a Cantonese speaking part of China like the Guangdong region
They are speaking Cantonese which is originated from China - GuangDong. It’s currently the main language in Hong Kong

Dude, you're mom is the best. Shes just the best. Your mom is the human embodiment of love. Just a big loving heart walking around among us. 💚💚💚
Silver Hiker you used the wrong your LOL
Your
Silver Hiker your*
Eyes on your own paper, trolls.
I started crying when you said you were proud of your mum for going to school. I hope you've told her
Shes so innocent omg.
"Make love" 😭
I wouldn’t confuse her lack of English for innocence. She grew up in war in Vietnam, you don’t leave that with innocence. She is so experienced in tragedy in life that instead of complaining about how hard it was she looks for everything positive in life that’ll make herself smile.
@@rhetthammond6254 by innocent here I meant 'not be informed' so like she does not know what make love means in 'that sense'.
But I totally get you point
That's so cute she said it straight forward.
I’m crying what the hell I love her
taryn w 666 LIKES AHHH
Where can I put money towards her travel fund?
This sweet woman deserves a surprise vacation. I don't have much but I'd love to send $20 to help fund a trip.
Right??? I'd happily donate to such a worthy individual!
Kimchi Mama you could probably contact Kane in some way and he might help you?
Yesss let's start up a gofundme!!
This comment made me cry man, god
I’m in my late 50s. Your mom is a remarkable woman... someone to be admired. She’s brave, wise, and beautiful! A treasure ❤️
Your mom brought me to tears. She reminded me there is so much to be happy for. She reminded me that you can find happiness in times when you think there is none to be found.
I couldn't have watched this at a better time. Your mom is so precious
Everyone’s moms are precious
- Grim Reaper - tru tru truu
Loom Geek yep. Moms are everything to live and work for!
She is adorable.❤ So sweet! Reminds me of my mom too.
God, I didn't expect to bawl my eyes out. Kane's mom is so precious
"happy is close" "if too far, how you catch it?" Some supreme words that really made me think... They also brought tears to my eyes... Great advice she had. Thank you for doing this video
how many people love their mom
👇
*me* !!!
Why should I?
I do
Noirr I do...and she’s 88 years old!savoreach moment!
Likebait
this is so touching, she is so caring and its beautiful that she find happiness in the simple things surrounding her ❤️
I can’t express how beautiful I thought this video was. Her answers really made me think and humbled me as a person. I realize I’ve spent so much time not appreciating how many blessings I’ve had. God bless your mom. She’s an awesome woman.

When Kane asked his mom how hard was her childhood and she said, “very hard”, already got me tearing up. I can’t imagine the hardships and sacrifices the older generation had to go through growing up. I love his parents, I love this video.
'let ur parents enjoy'
'take care of ur grandparents'
all in cantonese. this hits close to home.
Yes, Nick, it does!
I'm in tears.
"Happy very easy. Not try to want to take this, want to take that. Everything around us have the happy. You look your mom's place. Anywhere it hap love. Don't think far away, far away. How you catch? You catch close. See?"
Definitely what stood out to me the most :)
i'm not joking, when your mom was talking about how easy it is to be happy and find happiness in the little things- it literally changed my life. like my perception on things.
Oh my goodness
Growing up in war times probably is what made Kane's mom appreciate the little things in life and find joy in simple things. It's really easy to forget just how much happiness you can find and experience living a pretty simple life. It's a great life philosophy to live by, tbh.
Kane: why did u fall in love
His mom and every other asian person: *because we neighbors*
People of asian culture..Like the safety net of knowing your spouse from the similar environment..Whether it's school friend, college friend, son/daughter of a friend..So we know the background or the behaviour of that person before jump into marriage..Off course, the simplest way is by matchmaking..😂
She’s an absolutely amazing woman and I have so much respect for her. Despite having a hard childhood/teenager time she never gave up and is an amazing & happy woman now.
Having parents who are immigrants made me so damn emotional. Parents are such a blessing.
When he tells the story of his mom pouring tea over his leftover rice I cried
What I love is the son being so grateful,and so mature to realise how privileged he is,and the sacrifices the parents had to make. 💗
This video took me from laughing uncontrollably to actually sobbing trying to hold back tears. Kane, you and your mom's relationship is so pure.
Traci Wallace same 🤷🏻♀️
SHOUT OUT TO ALL PARENTS WHO SACRIFICED SO MUCH FOR THIER CHILDREN!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️
SOMEONE INVITE HER ON TED TALK PLEASE! I swear she can change lives.
This made me really put my life into perspective, thank you
Wow. So moved by her advice to look for happiness in the small things and not to try to catch/chase after too much
Ikr!
Gratitude in waking up
Bobby Boo no
Yes that is wise advice !! Take joy in beauty of nature around you 🌸🌸🌸
I don't usually comment on videos but this is awesome. Her outlook on life is so pure. "Everything around us have the happy. You look, your mom's place, anywhere it has love. Don't think far away, far away, how you catch? You catch close. See?"... Damn, Mama Diep has me questioning my whole outlook on life right now 😅
Asian Philosphy, buddhism.
"Happiness is easy. It's in everything around us, it's anywhere there is love." Best advice ever. This woman is so pure. She deserves everything good in the world. ❤
10:20 when she said "see" it got me chills it sounded so genuine and sincere,and it was the best word she said in English too(^^)she is so cute I admire how strong she was for her children they look like really good parents.
Whew, very tough to not get emotional here. This is why I relate so much to people that come from an immigrant family background. So many similarities, it's remarkable.
KayNaturals truly. We all have a certain bond.
No
agreed!!!
Same there’s just always something there we will all understand
Being Vietnamese I feel like this affects me too
What a beautiful perspective on life this sweet lady has! Absolutely precious conversation. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

She's got the right outlook on life, that's for sure. What an amazing woman! I am totally hoping that Buzzfeed will sponser her trip to China and we get a video montage of it!! ^^
Dollightful IM A BIG FAN OF YOUU
But she was from Vietnam, so maybe buzzfeed can sponsor her trip to Vietnam😂
Dollightful, you've got a great idea with Buzzfeed. Someone get that going! I love with this sweet lady!
Omg dollightful I love your vids!
Peachy Gals she is from Vietnam, but she IS Chinese and said she wants to visit China 'cause she's never been there.
I can't stop crying... This was amazing... Just to be able to sit down and talk to your mom is more than enough... Momman Kane is so admirable and reminds me so much of my mom who I love more than words can describe!
The way your beautiful mama describes true happiness reminds me of the book Selected Poems of T'ao Ch'ien. Just finding a few simple things that bring us true joy, and being able to be happy with what we have and not simply looking further or always living in scarcity. Seeing the abundance around us. She has so much wisdom, it's truly amazing.

It's remind me of Harry Potter

This woman is very wise, and the son is lucky to have her.
Kane: why did you fall in love?
Mum: because we are neighbours!!!
Kane: blank stare
Old Asian relationships be like
Your mom is soooo adorable. Please take good care of her
"your daddy said "love me" and i fell in love with your daddy."
so...
can someone love me?
ew no
Yes, lmao
you have chan in ur pfp so yes i love u
I love you
Love me! :D
"Everything around us have the happy. Everything around us has love Don't think far away, how you catch? You catch close. Everyday we thank you. That means happy. If you can't catch you feel upset and boring. Around us everything's easy to enjoy and feel happy."
This part got me so choked up.
Anna Mateo Saaammmee oh my gosh I didn’t think I would cry but here we are
this made me cry, just thinking of the way good parents struggle to give their kids everything and never have enough time for themselves or they sacrifice their dreams to give more to their family. she should be retired but is still doing for others. this is admirable but i feel sad for her as well. i think Kane realized that although she's happy, she deserves more than just an average life. She should get to travel to some place unexpected, beautiful and magical.

I love that she says ‘express love’ or ‘spread love’ as “make love”
Recommendation: you should conduct these interviews with her entirely in her native language and provide subtitles for the audience. I did a historical project in which I interviewed my mum and I had her speak in our native language, in which she is very well versed and she provided more information and depth about the topic than when we tried it in English.
this is actually make me cry.. i lost my mom 3 dyas before my 20th birthday, i never say anything meaningfull to her and i wasnt even able to make her happy yet
to see you at least have a chance to do this with your mom, u're already blessed dude
Well of course you made her happy my dear. She had 20 yrs of happiness with you just by being her child. My deepest condolences to you and your family.
You being born was her happiness... you made her the happiest woman in the world without even trying 💕 You're an incredibly strong human being, don't forget that 😓👊
I wish u get happiness with ur own children ...
I am so so so so.... Sorry.
Same, I didn't get a chance to really talk to her ,and tell her how much I love her.
She dropped some true wisdom. Happiness can be attained, if we stop chasing. So true
I cried when she said everything about being happy, catching what is close. I got that she was trying to express that you should be happy of what you have. She is so wholesome and generous to everything around her, that is how I aspire to be.
