As I sat next to my father the day he passed away, his last words on this earth was "I love you son". He tried to fight but his body could take no more. No longer a son but a father I hope my last words too will be "I love you son". RIP Dad I miss you..
Caner Erten yup. My father was a profoundly good person. His watch stopped within 5 minutes of the time of death. When my grandfather died, clocks stopped in the house. They told me back then it was something that happens in the family. After my father died I looked it up and turns out it’s not uncommon. I have lots of stories like that, many people tell me I should write a book.
My father died last Tuesday, buried with full military honours on Friday and here I am on a very lonely Sunday night revisiting old sad videos to keep his memory fresh. Through 5 forms of ravenous cancer you raged against the dying of the light for so long. Thank you da for everything you have given me in life.
My heart, my rage goes out to you. Be the forked lightning he always knew you would be. Remember that you are not alone, that a day may come when your courage will fail, when forget all bonds of fellowship. Just remember 'it is not this day, it will be an hour of wolves and shattered shields when you come crashing down, but.. It is not this day. This day you fight. By everything you hold dear, I would have you stand!' much love from a drunk man x
The last words I told my father almost 20 years ago was, "The next time you'll see me is looking up from your grave while I'm pissing on it." I can't wait until the day I can hold that promise true.

what if the rage has been abated. how to rekindle that fire of ire i wonder? which way can I enrage the rage. allowing the beast to fight against the Dark. To become full of holy fire?
@@DS-ld8ns it's hard to say. For me, it was the people around me who cared and wouldn't give up on me even when I knew they should have. I have only a spark, but the people I love bring me the kindling to make a roaring flame.
Here is Our Savior YaH The Heavenly FATHER HIMSELF was Who they Crucified/Pierced for our sins and “HERE IS THE PROOF” From the Ancient Semitic: "Yad He Vav He" is what Moshe (Moses) wrote, when Moses asked YaH His Name (Exodus 3) Ancient Semitic Direct Translation Yad - "Behold The Hand" He - "Behold the Breath" Vav - "Behold The NAIL"
to all who are watching these videos, we are all comrades and brothers. I wish you luck in your journey and ask that, may you never surrender when circumstances will oppose to your relationships, to your dreams and plans. Instead of giving, rise. Let the warrior rise within you. The battle of your life is worth fighting for.
Tbh, if my life is deemed shitty by the time I'm 30, I was going to commit suicide. You ah... thank you for these words sir. I'm only 24. It's tough to keep moving forward, but the words you said made me cry after realizing that the glass should always be half full instead of half empty. You saved my life...
@@zacharyperez2427 never stop brother. You are very young and you have a long road ahead of you. You have what it takes, you are and have been created to have infinite potential. No mattter how long it takes or no matter how small your progress is, keep going. Never take the easy path. Its the hard path, the paintful path that leads to growth and self actualization.
@@zacharyperez2427 I agree with thw previous response. You simply are to young to realize why life is worth living. I am almost 30 myself. I have even beaten and bruised. I am almost at wits end myself. I can see no light myself. But I pray for you that you find some and seek it at all cost. For it is your only true salvation.
@@zacharyperez2427 life changes so quickly my friend. I have been at points of absolute despair, then later, absolute happiness and back again. Keep up the fight of being a man. Sending love from Sydney Australia
the last words i heard from my mom as she woke up in pain in the middle of the night. she screamed out " i love you i love you and im so proud of you" i love you too mom
That quote has helped me fight through the hardest moments in my life. Life is a blacksmiths that’ll: beat you, burn you, drown you. But in the end you’ll emerge as a STRONG SHARP blade ready to do unquestionably great things. I ask you my brothers & sisters, do not break under the blacksmith, preserver and become the most beautiful thing ever made
If life is ceaselessly beating you, know this. Survive and be born as a powerful weapon to face all odds and triumph. Metal cannot control its breaking point, but man can.
Ive realised a long time ago that my life is flashing before my eyes, im not really living, just existing, and every day for me is a struggle to change that, along with the depression that feels me. Great video, i´ll keep on fighting
I send good vibes Dhdeadman the struggle is part of your book. Don’t let the last page of your book end without a Good ending. I had my worst struggles and trust me when that passes you will know why you are here. Keep pushing even if you have to crawl at first , love yourself.
i feel like i have already wasted all of the years that i have been alive.. i keep telling myself the same story over and over again that i have to change myself. its just like the addiction for the things that is holding me back are too strong
History Is Violent Nothing is easy because there is not such a thing as something being easy . If such a thing ever existed EVRYONE would do it .Stay determined the world belongs to you, you can surpass your difficulties if you just want to.
I think this is the first time I have seen a TH-cam comment section full of actually genuine comments and not just memes and shitposts. Great poem, excellent video. Thank you.
Just before my sister passed she told me she wasn't worried about hell because she had been there for many years. Her words will forever haunt me. I miss her so much.
As someone who’s been consumed by depression and anxiety it’s so hard to go forward when w every day it seems like your mind is giant black storm cloud with no clarity in sight.
@Liam O’Neil I'm afraid this is the very issue with those who suffer like this. It isn't a conscious choice to entertain those thoughts nor is it an option to think any other way whether it be positive, assertive etc.. For most, there is an inherent knowledge that this is a sickness. They think and feel like any "normal" person except they are interrupted by invasive thoughts which hijack and otherwise healthy brain and a good day - things fall south quickly onward from there. Getting over yourself is applicable in, say, moments of grief, trivia, conundrums. Here is an issue whereby the affected party aren't struggling to get over themselves, but struggling to understand how to think with clarity without being invaded by thoughts of the contrary. With that clarity, it's hoped, will come understanding and, in that, remedy.
I've been there brother. There were months on end where I only lived to fall asleep again and not have to be conscious. It gets better. You can claw your way out of that pit. And by god it's worth fighting for.
Keep fighting. Find the source of your fears and depression and your life will change. Learn to like yourself and know that you matter, then you can start to heal. Best of luck to you, I’ve been there and there is a way out.
Just wanna make sure your okay I... have those thoughts sometimes too, something that has helped me is to pick up a hobby of some sort, something that makes you think “I can’t die, I want to _____ and live”
I was vaguely aware of this poem in my teen years but I heard it shortly after my father died in Grade 12 and wept. A few years after a quadrupel bypass operation he was diagnosed with lung cancer. He worked every day until he literally couldn't any more, fighting to support his family and only when it was clear that there was no way to continue did he stop. He signed his DNR, he wrote a letter to each of us to be opened once he was gone and he went. I was sitting next to him when he breathed his last breath and this poem comprises everything I wish I could have thought to say then.
Shawn McRoberts May he RIP my brother.. it sounds like he was a good man. I have depression and have thought of ending it but when someone like your dad has a terrible illness like he does what right does it give me to want to stop living when your dad and others like him only wished they had more time. Thank you for your comment.
Anyone else reading this ignore poetry in school, but now when you are older… find yourself going back to all the poems you overlooked finally able to appreciate and understand their true value?

*Frodo* : "I wish it need not have happened in my time," *Gandalf* : "So do I, and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us. Rage, brothers and sisters, rage, against the dying of the light.
I remember seeing my mother cry heavily for my grandpa (a man who fought through WW2 in the Army, Korea in the Air Force, Marched and supported civil rights, fought hard to feed his 3 kids and wife) and she never heard his last words or moments but that wasn’t the hardest part to see. It was my uncles who I knew as the toughest men other than my own father, balling their eyes out along with their sons and daughters where I was the youngest out of all of them. All of us knew and felt his touch our lives and I never knew just how much. R.I.P I love you Grandpa and you’re sons and daughter need you
I've medically died twice. I don't want to encourage anyone to rush towards death, but it is the sweetest bliss I have ever known. We should not fear death; however, it will come for us all. We will have our peace, but until then... rage, rage against the dying of the light.
I am sincerely curious to know, if I may ask, what was it like? I actually believe you. I have faith and believe in the afterlife. I had a life-threatening disease myself. I can honestly say, I was ready to die and left it in God's hands, but He it was not my time. I am sincerely and humbly just curious what it was like? If you would rather not share, I understand. Thank you.
@@MacLooken9019i'm not the person who originally posted this, nor have i experienced death at any point, however from what i've heard it's like being put in the deepest, most peaceful and comfortable sleep you can ever imagine. like, the kind of sleep you'd never want to wake up from. if i had to guess, that's what he meant with that

The older I get the more I value my loved ones but the more they drift away, the pain I walk with is crazy, I'm awake all night trying to figure out why i feel so out out of place, I just don't know what god has in store for me. Life hurts.
I'll day this to a comment that is now a year old, it doesn't matter what God, your family, or anyone around you has in store for you, what matters is how you wish to push on, how you wish to be among them again. To put it simply, your fate is your own, keep raging and find something to scream for, to fight for and a dream to die for this very moment
Was walking to work, started balling. Had to go sit down before going in. Thankful to be alive. Thankful to still rage and rage every day. Against the dying of the light
Maybe it's just me but I feel like it's about fighting for good since we are light... don't let the darkness overcome. Do whatever to keep the light shining in this world who seems to get darker day after day...with love and hope for all reading this...stay blessed y'all. Jesus saves
I think it’s about dying with grace, and not giving up in old age. Be the fire you felt in youth, weakness is a circumstance and rage is there to help you through.

I always come back to this narration of this poem, play it on repeat as tears stream down my face, then I attack life with ferocity until I need to hear this again.
I first watched this and discovered this poem, moments before I got the call that my brother passed. I felt it, without knowing he was gone. Not sure what to make of it, but just wanted to share.

I've known of and read most of the Dylan Thomas poem several times in my 66 years, but this is the first time I've heard it in toto, read beautifully by Sir Anthony Hopkins. Thank you for posting this.
This poet is a craftsman of words, an artist of language, a sculptor of profound meaning, who shows that life is, but a dimming flicker of light as quickly extinguished as it once was lit. Each sentence is like a concussive, yet alluring shell of pathos and mourning, that is sadly sobering, but life affirming.
I love this because it’s about fighting against the “dying light” which can be a symbol for just about anything in our lives. My grandmother passed away on September 1st, 2022; and exact week from my birth day. It destroyed me that I couldn’t spend one last birthday with her but I started thinking back on the whole experience. She was diagnosed with terminal cancer in October of ‘21 and was given 6-10 months to live. Looking back at she had lived longer than 10 months by technicality since it would’ve been 10 months on August 20th. Since she passed on September 1st she had lived longer than what she was told she would… in a sense raging against the dying of the light.
I'm passing through a hard, hard time. This poem makes me reflect of all things that is going to happen. I know that mistakes happen and it's normal, problems are normal, but, I'm overwhelmed with guilt, sadness and loneliness. I'm not complaining, but, I wish to go back in time and change everything.
We are walking in the same shoes, the EXACT same shoes, but please remember.. "Hardships often prepare ordinary people for an extraordinary destiny" Stay strong Tommy Yan.
Couldn’t have found this at a better time. For several months I’ve been dealing so much guilt, shame and self-penance. For hurting the woman I was going to marry, and now gone. Self-forgiveness has not come easy- been living in a prison-like life. Although you’ll always have others tell you you’re a good person and that it’s ok to make mistakes, no matter how terrible, doesn’t make it any easier to cope with the process of getting better and move on. I’ll make sure I watch this more often, and to any of you out there, if you truly love someone, you do right by them!
This poem has saved me from suicide multiple times. Actually, it's given me the strength to save myself from it. Dylan Thomas was a genius. The man was so right about death and how it should be approached. With fists up, screaming and clawing for breath.
Some times knowledge can make you depressed if you are not ready for the truth like me. we are inside a prison and on a big wide second prison I pray for those in a third prison lol 😂😂
I used to love this poem and many of his poems .. but now.. I see it so differently... Dylan was 'raging' alcoholic.. the 'dying of the light' in his life was caused by his drinking, the disintegration of his optimism and creativity by his disease. Maybe he needed his rage to keep going and not fall down .. but ..not everyone does.. and although I love his work with words.... I don't look to him as a source of wisdom or direction for a life of wholeness or instruction for a good death.. so this whole poem is just something that many people accept because it kinda sounds right to them without really deeply examining what is means.. 'raging' against death has become kinda pervasive. I'm an icu nurse and I have seen hundred + of people die during my career.. and the ragers are like a kid kicking an elephant...
I watched this at schools today. Some said this was a weak motivational video. I said maybe it's cuz you missed the meaning behind it. Just cuz it's not someone aggressively telling you stuff about sports and hard work doesn't mean it's weak. I found this the most beautiful and the most powerful motivational video ever. I never accept what motivational videos and/or speeches have to say. I guess I'm too stubborn but this one caught my heart. It caught me in a time of darkness. I will hold this in my heart.
It took my whole life to face what had been done to me as a child and now at 61, I am a lightning bolt in a herd of cattle, more unsettling to the walking dead around me than ever. Get strong, stay strong, need approval from no one. There is a god like power under your skin. Shine, do not diminish your light for anyone or anything.
I lost my father a few months ago. We had a complicated relationship; I do love him and I know he loved me. I've listened to this video probably 100x since he died, and I read the last few words at his funeral. I love you, Dad ❤
I had seen the death very near 2-3 times....(accident ... Heart problem.... breathing problems) But when we get normal health again...we always forget the value of what we do have...
the rage i feel is ready to come to the surface, this energy has been building... I can feel it as it sneaks out my pours....I am going to go on the rage!!!!

I’ve been through so much but I know every day I get stronger, I can’t be stopped by any demons in my mind. I no longer fight against sadness, I fight for more love and happiness
I've been in a bit of a rough spot lately, and this video really helped keep my motivation up. Thank you for posting this, I always get a bit excited when I see a notification for your videos!
My father has uttered no words glancing or breaming on such green bays; But hearing the words that speak courage, and force. Speaking of fortitude and courage against that which befalls us all, in our moment of triumph and our moment of fall...Rage. rage...against the dying of the light...
The sound of the matchstick flicker gave me chills... RedFrost Motivation has transcended the quality of motivation that one video delivers. Thank you so much RedFrost...Hope you keep doing the great stuff for the years to come.
My younger brothers father had a stroke the day after Christmas and after 9 days of being in hospital, with the worst aphasia, they’ve just confirmed they’ve found terminal lung cancer. My heart is so broken and shattered my two younger brothers who also went through losing our mother 5 years ago while they were 14 and 16. I am so unbelievably scared for them so I can’t begin to imagine how frightened they are. I don’t know what to say, but I know these videos are helping. I just wanna support them as much as I can from here on out. Life is so painful and tragic right now, but I am praying and I am hoping and I am going to work through this.
After my father being diagnosed with cancer and there was only few months to live, my father told me “When I will leave this world, Remember this to tour self, if you want me to be happy, be happy”.
What an inspiration this work provides! Thank you for making this video. I come back to this every few days so I don’t slip back to living without purpose and fire in my actions.

Kevin Roberts everyday I fight my ptsd I’m on such high amount of medication but still I don’t sleep because of nightmares and in the day I sit waiting for my personal war to being
Due to some life challenges I missed the last few years of my fathers life. I made it home a week before he passed, holding his hand, myself raging against those that tainted his thoughts of me, keeping me from him. Never able to have a moment with him and my daughter. We were a large family and someone was always at his bedside. He was such a tough , gritty man , with the warmest heart and sweetest soul. Every day the nurse would say, this day would likely be his last, after a few days she said, I’m not saying that anymore. We finally left his room a few hours with no one there. And then he passed. Like protecting us as children, he didn’t want to leave us or didn’t want our last memory of seeing him go. I wasn’t able to attend his funeral and a part of me died that day. What a great man. I have some solace in that he now knows the truth of my last few agonizing years and y I wasn’t there. . I pray that someday my Ellie will be home and I can heal this bitter heart while sharing ur life. I wish I had ur strength. I love u Dad
When my Father died,for years i felt i was drifting, without an anchour or compass in life. But a few years affter he had died, i looked at some of the mannerisms and expressions on my Two year old daughters face, and recognised them. I felt myself saying things, and upholding values my father had tried to teach me. I realised he had never died, he just had to leave us. some things cant be just killed off.

To me, Rage was a familiar spirit that I often went back to, to put those around me into submission. Love is the spirit that I’m learning to turn to now. It’s fruits don’t rot on the vine and leave me in a state of regret.
I was moved by the profound wisdom shared in this video. It teaches us not to resign ourselves to mediocrity but to strive for excellence, even when faced with the inevitability of aging and the trials of life.
I always toke this poem to mean not to give up hope. That even in your deepest, darkest moemonets, you should claw and fight and struggle your way towards hope, even if it is just a small flickering thing. But, after my mom passed away, and seeing her spened her final days on this earth with her family and grandkids, I think I have a better understanding of it.
I did CPR on my father for 17 mins when he had a cardiac arrest. He got to hospital still alive but unconscious. I managed to talk to him once again only for him to have two more cardiac arrests a week later. I then had the decision to turn his life support machine off. I was grateful now to able to speak to him once last time.I play this often sat on my own and can see his face looking back it brings tears to my eyes every time. RIP Dad you are missed every day xxx
Rich M My friend I can feel you..I almost lose my dad from cardiac arrest and cardiac attack at the same time.The days that I watched him laying at the hospital bed in the emergency room was awful even though he was unconscious for some days I was sitting next to him and trying to talk to him with the hope he was listening I was telling him to do his best and wake up because I didn’t want to lose him.The next day he opened his eyes and I cried of happiness.Anyways I wish you best and have strength
It's not about hopelessly fighting against the inevitability of death. It's about having a reason to want to fight. To be one who truly appreciates life. To appreciate your own experience, to appreciate yourself and what you can offer the world, and to appreciate the world and the chance that you have to know it. There is nothing to come of raging against the dying of the light. But to have a will to rage speaks volumes about you and the life you've lived.
Rage rage, against the dying of the light. Surely that must mean the old age that encompasses and circumvents us all. May we not falter even though it is inevitable, but shine even brighter than we ever did before. One last time
For my dear friends John; Jacob; Lachy and Giovanna. Keep this with you always. And to Jordan; you inspired me to be a better person. This poem has always kept me safe
Keep fighting. If you are looking at this comment. I want you to know that you’re special. You’re amazing. You may be in a dark cloud right now. But when the storm passes, light comes out, and you will realize how much stronger you really are. You will feel unstoppable. I believe in you. Never give up.
Dylan Thomas was a master, who died too young. He wrote this for his dying father, and used the very strict form of this style of poem, called a villanelle, to help himself arrange his thoughs. Thomas wrote for his words to be spoken and heard. This is a great reading... such gravitas and majesty, coveying the intention of the author for sorrow and joy to be experienced together. For any who haven’t, find Dylan Thomas’ reading of this.
Best speech ever created. Lyrics: Do not go gentle into that good night Old age should burn and rave at close of day Rage, rage against the dying of the light Though wise men at their end know dark is right Because their words had forked no lightning they Do not go gentle into that good night Good men, the last wave, by crying how bright Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay Rage, rage against the dying of the light Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight And learned too late, they grieved it on its way Do not go gentle into that good night Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay Rage, rage against the dying of the light And you, my father, there on the sad height Curse, bless me now with yourt fierce tears I pray Do not go gentle into that good night Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Here Is a Poem I wrote called... Love Reborn It Is a night of sorrow, A song of dark desire, Wolves vent their loneliness, The beautiful one awakes. Wisps of death shrouds her deathly form, a timeless fear Her face Is paler than white, Dark circles surround her eyes, Her eyes were sinister & lifeless, Veiling her pain & silent cries, Her raven black hair cascades over milk-white shoulders, She walks to approach me, & her full rep lips slightly part to gently touch mine, As we share a kiss under the dark, shining, moonlight sky, After a night of sharing, I remember her.
I was in the stage where my motivation dropped extremely low because I failed in what I wanted to do and there was no way to redeem myself. I now must start from the very basics again, step by step. I had forgotten how hard it is to keep going. Good times indeed
As I sat next to my father the day he passed away, his last words on this earth was "I love you son". He tried to fight but his body could take no more. No longer a son but a father I hope my last words too will be "I love you son". RIP Dad I miss you..
rest in peace. ironic but what a lovely end.
i hope you both meet up in other world.
I guess it's a happy end. To be with people you love.
My father said "enjoy your life". His watch stopped when he died, just like his father
@@michaelbeary really?
Caner Erten yup. My father was a profoundly good person. His watch stopped within 5 minutes of the time of death. When my grandfather died, clocks stopped in the house. They told me back then it was something that happens in the family. After my father died I looked it up and turns out it’s not uncommon. I have lots of stories like that, many people tell me I should write a book.
My father died last Tuesday, buried with full military honours on Friday and here I am on a very lonely Sunday night revisiting old sad videos to keep his memory fresh. Through 5 forms of ravenous cancer you raged against the dying of the light for so long. Thank you da for everything you have given me in life.
My mom passed away four months ago...I see you, I hear you, I feel your pain
I'm so sorry for your loss, the world's loss. God bless you and comfort you❤️🙏
My heart, my rage goes out to you. Be the forked lightning he always knew you would be. Remember that you are not alone, that a day may come when your courage will fail, when forget all bonds of fellowship. Just remember 'it is not this day, it will be an hour of wolves and shattered shields when you come crashing down, but.. It is not this day. This day you fight. By everything you hold dear, I would have you stand!' much love from a drunk man x
The last words I told my father almost 20 years ago was, "The next time you'll see me is looking up from your grave while I'm pissing on it."
I can't wait until the day I can hold that promise true.
I am sorry. Really I am.
"Death smiles at us all, but all a man can do is smile back"

to all who are watching these videos, we are all comrades and brothers. I wish you luck in your journey and ask that, may you never surrender when circumstances will oppose to your relationships, to your dreams and plans. Instead of giving, rise. Let the warrior rise within you. The battle of your life is worth fighting for.
Tbh, if my life is deemed shitty by the time I'm 30, I was going to commit suicide. You ah... thank you for these words sir. I'm only 24. It's tough to keep moving forward, but the words you said made me cry after realizing that the glass should always be half full instead of half empty. You saved my life...
@@zacharyperez2427 never stop brother. You are very young and you have a long road ahead of you. You have what it takes, you are and have been created to have infinite potential. No mattter how long it takes or no matter how small your progress is, keep going. Never take the easy path. Its the hard path, the paintful path that leads to growth and self actualization.
@@zacharyperez2427 I agree with thw previous response. You simply are to young to realize why life is worth living. I am almost 30 myself. I have even beaten and bruised. I am almost at wits end myself. I can see no light myself. But I pray for you that you find some and seek it at all cost. For it is your only true salvation.
God bless you brother

You should be proud your mother truely love you.

That quote has helped me fight through the hardest moments in my life. Life is a blacksmiths that’ll: beat you, burn you, drown you. But in the end you’ll emerge as a STRONG SHARP blade ready to do unquestionably great things. I ask you my brothers & sisters, do not break under the blacksmith, preserver and become the most beautiful thing ever made
Wow that was very deep❤
If life is ceaselessly beating you, know this. Survive and be born as a powerful weapon to face all odds and triumph. Metal cannot control its breaking point, but man can.
This is beautiful
Beautiful analogy, my friend.
Here here brother! I am with you!!
Ive realised a long time ago that my life is flashing before my eyes, im not really living, just existing, and every day for me is a struggle to change that, along with the depression that feels me.
Great video, i´ll keep on fighting
Keep fighting:)
Rooting for you brother!! ✊

I send good vibes Dhdeadman the struggle is part of your book. Don’t let the last page of your book end without a Good ending. I had my worst struggles and trust me when that passes you will know why you are here. Keep pushing even if you have to crawl at first , love yourself.

I hope she had some happiness as well
sometimes others eyes can help tell a great story. I'm sure she had a heck of a one!
Sounds like she was a fighter. Respect.

As someone who’s been consumed by depression and anxiety it’s so hard to go forward when w every day it seems like your mind is giant black storm cloud with no clarity in sight.

@Liam O’Neil I'm afraid this is the very issue with those who suffer like this. It isn't a conscious choice to entertain those thoughts nor is it an option to think any other way whether it be positive, assertive etc..
For most, there is an inherent knowledge that this is a sickness. They think and feel like any "normal" person except they are interrupted by invasive thoughts which hijack and otherwise healthy brain and a good day - things fall south quickly onward from there.
Getting over yourself is applicable in, say, moments of grief, trivia, conundrums. Here is an issue whereby the affected party aren't struggling to get over themselves, but struggling to understand how to think with clarity without being invaded by thoughts of the contrary. With that clarity, it's hoped, will come understanding and, in that, remedy.
I've been there brother. There were months on end where I only lived to fall asleep again and not have to be conscious. It gets better. You can claw your way out of that pit. And by god it's worth fighting for.
Keep fighting. Find the source of your fears and depression and your life will change. Learn to like yourself and know that you matter, then you can start to heal. Best of luck to you, I’ve been there and there is a way out.
The amount of times this video and this speech has kept me from offing myself genuinely terrifies me. Thank you.
Just wanna make sure your okay
I... have those thoughts sometimes too, something that has helped me is to pick up a hobby of some sort, something that makes you think “I can’t die, I want to _____ and live”
Hey Jon, just wanted to say hello and tell you that you’re not alone. Keep fighting that good fight, I’ll be in that trench with you brother.
Please be okay... The world has soo much more to offer ... And you ARE a part of this world. ❤️
Stay on.
do not go gentle into that good night.. rage.. rage.. rage against the dying of the light!
I was vaguely aware of this poem in my teen years but I heard it shortly after my father died in Grade 12 and wept. A few years after a quadrupel bypass operation he was diagnosed with lung cancer. He worked every day until he literally couldn't any more, fighting to support his family and only when it was clear that there was no way to continue did he stop. He signed his DNR, he wrote a letter to each of us to be opened once he was gone and he went. I was sitting next to him when he breathed his last breath and this poem comprises everything I wish I could have thought to say then.
Shawn McRoberts May he RIP my brother.. it sounds like he was a good man. I have depression and have thought of ending it but when someone like your dad has a terrible illness like he does what right does it give me to want to stop living when your dad and others like him only wished they had more time. Thank you for your comment.
Shawn McRoberts Bravo! 👏
Nearly identical to me brother
Anyone else reading this ignore poetry in school, but now when you are older… find yourself going back to all the poems you overlooked finally able to appreciate and understand their true value?

I remember seeing my mother cry heavily for my grandpa (a man who fought through WW2 in the Army, Korea in the Air Force, Marched and supported civil rights, fought hard to feed his 3 kids and wife) and she never heard his last words or moments but that wasn’t the hardest part to see. It was my uncles who I knew as the toughest men other than my own father, balling their eyes out along with their sons and daughters where I was the youngest out of all of them. All of us knew and felt his touch our lives and I never knew just how much. R.I.P I love you Grandpa and you’re sons and daughter need you
I've medically died twice.
I don't want to encourage anyone to rush towards death, but it is the sweetest bliss I have ever known. We should not fear death; however, it will come for us all. We will have our peace, but until then... rage, rage against the dying of the light.
I am sincerely curious to know, if I may ask, what was it like? I actually believe you. I have faith and believe in the afterlife. I had a life-threatening disease myself. I can honestly say, I was ready to die and left it in God's hands, but He it was not my time. I am sincerely and humbly just curious what it was like? If you would rather not share, I understand.

I'll day this to a comment that is now a year old, it doesn't matter what God, your family, or anyone around you has in store for you, what matters is how you wish to push on, how you wish to be among them again.

I think it’s about dying with grace, and not giving up in old age. Be the fire you felt in youth, weakness is a circumstance and rage is there to help you through.

I've known of and read most of the Dylan Thomas poem several times in my 66 years, but this is the first time I've heard it in toto, read beautifully by Sir Anthony Hopkins. Thank you for posting this.
I don't why, but everytime I feel low and lonely, I come here and listen.
Same
Death is guaranteed - don't be afraid of it.... be afraid of the time you have left.
So true
True.
Fear will only hold you back at life
False. Fear of death is vital for life.
The true shower thought is always in the comments.
This poet is a craftsman of words, an artist of language, a sculptor of profound meaning, who shows that life is, but a dimming flicker of light as quickly extinguished as it once was lit. Each sentence is like a concussive, yet alluring shell of pathos and mourning, that is sadly sobering, but life affirming.
I love this because it’s about fighting against the “dying light” which can be a symbol for just about anything in our lives. My grandmother passed away on September 1st, 2022; and exact week from my birth day. It destroyed me that I couldn’t spend one last birthday with her but I started thinking back on the whole experience. She was diagnosed with terminal cancer in October of ‘21 and was given 6-10 months to live. Looking back at she had lived longer than 10 months by technicality since it would’ve been 10 months on August 20th. Since she passed on September 1st she had lived longer than what she was told she would… in a sense raging against the dying of the light.
" Do not enter gently into that good night ". I want this phrase in my stone.
I'm passing through a hard, hard time. This poem makes me reflect of all things that is going to happen. I know that mistakes happen and it's normal, problems are normal, but, I'm overwhelmed with guilt, sadness and loneliness. I'm not complaining, but, I wish to go back in time and change everything.
We are walking in the same shoes, the EXACT same shoes, but please remember..
"Hardships often prepare ordinary people for an extraordinary destiny"
Stay strong Tommy Yan.
I sincerely hope things are better Tommy! And if they are not i am hoping for the best for you brother :)
I feel you bro i'm in a similar position too, but RAGE, RAGE, against the dying of the light!
I needed this. I thing everyone needs this right now, more people need this.
Couldn’t have found this at a better time. For several months I’ve been dealing so much guilt, shame and self-penance. For hurting the woman I was going to marry, and now gone. Self-forgiveness has not come easy- been living in a prison-like life. Although you’ll always have others tell you you’re a good person and that it’s ok to make mistakes, no matter how terrible, doesn’t make it any easier to cope with the process of getting better and move on. I’ll make sure I watch this more often, and to any of you out there, if you truly love someone, you do right by them!
I feel Goosebumps every time I hear this, it hits harder as I get older. Makes me wonder really living your best life.
This poem has saved me from suicide multiple times.
Actually, it's given me the strength to save myself from it.
Dylan Thomas was a genius. The man was so right about death and how it should be approached. With fists up, screaming and clawing for breath.
You are not alone life sucks
poor... war...death....loss of the one we love... sickness... illness... it pure's the soul
Some times knowledge can make you depressed if you are not ready for the truth like me. we are inside a prison and on a big wide second prison I pray for those in a third prison lol 😂😂
I used to love this poem and many of his poems .. but now.. I see it so differently... Dylan was 'raging' alcoholic.. the 'dying of the light' in his life was caused by his drinking, the disintegration of his optimism and creativity by his disease. Maybe he needed his rage to keep going and not fall down .. but ..not everyone does.. and although I love his work with words.... I don't look to him as a source of wisdom or direction for a life of wholeness or instruction for a good death.. so this whole poem is just something that many people accept because it kinda sounds right to them without really deeply examining what is means.. 'raging' against death has become kinda pervasive. I'm an icu nurse and I have seen hundred + of people die during my career.. and the ragers are like a kid kicking an elephant...
@@justniobe Thank you for the insight but why would you comment that on someone’s who prone to suicidal tendencies and how does this help him?
Same.
This causes my heart to clench, in happiness, in sadness, and in so many emotions. It’s amazing what simple words can do.
I watched this at schools today. Some said this was a weak motivational video. I said maybe it's cuz you missed the meaning behind it. Just cuz it's not someone aggressively telling you stuff about sports and hard work doesn't mean it's weak. I found this the most beautiful and the most powerful motivational video ever. I never accept what motivational videos and/or speeches have to say. I guess I'm too stubborn but this one caught my heart. It caught me in a time of darkness. I will hold this in my heart.
This is an old poem by Dylan Thomas.
It took my whole life to face what had been done to me as a child and now at 61, I am a lightning bolt in a herd of cattle, more unsettling to the walking dead around me than ever. Get strong, stay strong, need approval from no one. There is a god like power under your skin. Shine, do not diminish your light for anyone or anything.
I lost my father a few months ago. We had a complicated relationship; I do love him and I know he loved me.
I've listened to this video probably 100x since he died, and I read the last few words at his funeral.
I love you, Dad ❤
People don't realize the value of life until their moment of death we must prepare for death by raging everyday against the dying of the light.
Never alive unless in combat
@@bomcstoots1 dude stfu.
Time is not a commodity, we don't spend it. Make sure you're happy. That's all that matters
im tired of raging
I had seen the death very near 2-3 times....(accident ... Heart problem.... breathing problems)
But when we get normal health again...we always forget the value of what we do have...
the rage i feel is ready to come to the surface, this energy has been building... I can feel it as it sneaks out my pours....I am going to go on the rage!!!!

Anthony Hopkins has become one of my favorite actors. It's more than acting, it comes from the heart. Bravo Sir Anthony, Bravo!
I’ve been through so much but I know every day I get stronger, I can’t be stopped by any demons in my mind. I no longer fight against sadness, I fight for more love and happiness

I'm not much of poetry buff myself but the power in these words are so palpable.
The perfect video for June - Men’s mental Health awareness month ! “Rage, rage…”
My father has uttered no words glancing or breaming on such green bays; But hearing the words that speak courage, and force. Speaking of fortitude and courage against that which befalls us all, in our moment of triumph and our moment of fall...Rage. rage...against the dying of the light...
The sound of the matchstick flicker gave me chills... RedFrost Motivation has transcended the quality of motivation that one video delivers. Thank you so much RedFrost...Hope you keep doing the great stuff for the years to come.
Many people watched this video and felt inspired by it, but only few will actually rage against the dying of the light.
But don't be worried just because you feel like you're not one of those "few". Do what you feel makes life worth every cent
My younger brothers father had a stroke the day after Christmas and after 9 days of being in hospital, with the worst aphasia, they’ve just confirmed they’ve found terminal lung cancer. My heart is so broken and shattered my two younger brothers who also went through losing our mother 5 years ago while they were 14 and 16. I am so unbelievably scared for them so I can’t begin to imagine how frightened they are. I don’t know what to say, but I know these videos are helping. I just wanna support them as much as I can from here on out. Life is so painful and tragic right now, but I am praying and I am hoping and I am going to work through this.
Your brothers are lucky to have you Michael. I don't know you, but, my heart is pulling for yours... Rage brother, rage... keep going!
Cheers,

Anthony Hopkins has a comforting and convincing voice...i can listen to his voice for hours.
Due to some life challenges I missed the last few years of my fathers life. I made it home a week before he passed, holding his hand, myself raging against those that tainted his thoughts of me, keeping me from him. Never able to have a moment with him and my daughter. We were a large family and someone was always at his bedside. He was such a tough , gritty man , with the warmest heart and sweetest soul. Every day the nurse would say, this day would likely be his last, after a few days she said, I’m not saying that anymore. We finally left his room a few hours with no one there. And then he passed. Like protecting us as children, he didn’t want to leave us or didn’t want our last memory of seeing him go. I wasn’t able to attend his funeral and a part of me died that day. What a great man. I have some solace in that he now knows the truth of my last few agonizing years and y I wasn’t there. . I pray that someday my Ellie will be home and I can heal this bitter heart while sharing ur life. I wish I had ur strength. I love u Dad
You are stronger than you believe.
When my Father died,for years i felt i was drifting, without an anchour or compass in life.
But a few years affter he had died, i looked at some of the mannerisms and expressions on my Two year old daughters face, and recognised them.
I felt myself saying things, and upholding values my father had tried to teach me.
I realised he had never died, he just had to leave us. some things cant be just killed off.
Dennis. Listen to the song The Things We Have Handed Down by Marc Cohn. I think it will resonate with you with regard to your father and daughter.

Dylan Thomas. I've loved this poem for many years.
I was moved by the profound wisdom shared in this video. It teaches us not to resign ourselves to mediocrity but to strive for excellence, even when faced with the inevitability of aging and the trials of life.
Without a doubt, the greatest rendition of this incredible poem that I’ve heard.
I definately know after 20 years also someone will be watching this masterpiece.. just a small message- do not go gentle into that good night!
Thanks brother
I always toke this poem to mean not to give up hope. That even in your deepest, darkest moemonets, you should claw and fight and struggle your way towards hope, even if it is just a small flickering thing. But, after my mom passed away, and seeing her spened her final days on this earth with her family and grandkids, I think I have a better understanding of it.
Kudos.
This is one of the videos that has helped big time over the last 7 painful year's. Had to get angry enough to keep on fighting.
This is the strongest, moving, most poetic thing I’ve ever heard.
"success is not final. Failure is not fatal. It is the courage to continue that counts"
Never seen or heard a motivational video put together like this one before... absolutely perfectly done..beautiful.
I did CPR on my father for 17 mins when he had a cardiac arrest. He got to hospital still alive but unconscious. I managed to talk to him once again only for him to have two more cardiac arrests a week later. I then had the decision to turn his life support machine off. I was grateful now to able to speak to him once last time.I play this often sat on my own and can see his face looking back it brings tears to my eyes every time. RIP Dad you are missed every day xxx
Rich M My friend I can feel you..I almost lose my dad from cardiac arrest and cardiac attack at the same time.The days that I watched him laying at the hospital bed in the emergency room was awful even though he was unconscious for some days I was sitting next to him and trying to talk to him with the hope he was listening I was telling him to do his best and wake up because I didn’t want to lose him.The next day he opened his eyes and I cried of happiness.Anyways I wish you best and have strength
Hang in there bros. You'll be alright.
I know this is late but i just wanted to say im sorry for your loss. God bless
The fact that you did CPR for 17 minutes straight to at least try to save your father is an awesome feat!
Giving my condolences though, brother
It's not about hopelessly fighting against the inevitability of death. It's about having a reason to want to fight. To be one who truly appreciates life. To appreciate your own experience, to appreciate yourself and what you can offer the world, and to appreciate the world and the chance that you have to know it.
There is nothing to come of raging against the dying of the light. But to have a will to rage speaks volumes about you and the life you've lived.
For all the important strong ppl we lost and will lose in this great game of life
Rage rage, against the dying of the light. Surely that must mean the old age that encompasses and circumvents us all. May we not falter even though it is inevitable, but shine even brighter than we ever did before. One last time
2:12 The way he looks at the sky as if he flashes his entire life infront of his eyes and felt no regret, if he dies, he will die a happy man.
Is this a scene from a movie?
Exactly
"Our hearts were drunk with a love our eyes could never see. "
For me, one of the best movies AND poem ever.
My father passed right beside me, and his last words were "The fight is worth it, son."
Out of all these comments and the video your comment is the one that Made me tear up
I bet he's proud of you Adrian... Keep raging brother; it is the only good fight.
xoxo,
Dick
For my dear friends John; Jacob; Lachy and Giovanna. Keep this with you always. And to Jordan; you inspired me to be a better person. This poem has always kept me safe
It's one of the most beautiful, encouraging and moving words that I've ever heard. Thank you so much for doing this video.
On vacation I'm listening to this before hitting the gym today. Thank you 💪
Keep fighting. If you are looking at this comment.
I want you to know that you’re special. You’re amazing. You may be in a dark cloud right now. But when the storm passes, light comes out, and you will realize how much stronger you really are. You will feel unstoppable.
I believe in you. Never give up.
This is my favorite poem. This brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it.
Dylan Thomas was a master, who died too young. He wrote this for his dying father, and used the very strict form of this style of poem, called a villanelle, to help himself arrange his thoughs. Thomas wrote for his words to be spoken and heard. This is a great reading... such gravitas and majesty, coveying the intention of the author for sorrow and joy to be experienced together. For any who haven’t, find Dylan Thomas’ reading of this.
Best speech ever created.
Lyrics:
Do not go gentle into that good night
Old age should burn and rave at close of day
Rage, rage against the dying of the light
Though wise men at their end know dark is right
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night
Good men, the last wave, by crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay
Rage, rage against the dying of the light
Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight
And learned too late, they grieved it on its way
Do not go gentle into that good night
Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay
Rage, rage against the dying of the light
And you, my father, there on the sad height
Curse, bless me now with yourt fierce tears I pray
Do not go gentle into that good night
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
We didn’t have the greatest relationship Dad and I , I do wish I could hear his voice and see him smile
Cheers Bou... I have a similar wish with my old man.
Cheers,
Dick
Here Is a Poem I wrote called...
Love Reborn
It Is a night of sorrow,
A song of dark desire,
Wolves vent their loneliness,
The beautiful one awakes.
Wisps of death shrouds her deathly form,
a timeless fear
Her face Is paler than white,
Dark circles surround her eyes,
Her eyes were sinister & lifeless,
Veiling her pain & silent cries,
Her raven black hair cascades over milk-white shoulders,
She walks to approach me,
& her full rep lips slightly part to gently touch mine,
As we share a kiss under the dark, shining, moonlight sky,
After a night of sharing,
I remember her.
Game over...
It was beautiful
Nicley done
I was in the stage where my motivation dropped extremely low because I failed in what I wanted to do and there was no way to redeem myself. I now must start from the very basics again, step by step. I had forgotten how hard it is to keep going. Good times indeed
This is IMO the most important speech ever written, everyone needs to hear this.
