Net Buzz

This heartwarming video has the internet buzzing for several reasons: Is it real? Why hadn’t his mother seen him in seven years? And, if he was alive, why didn’t he contact her? Watching it, I can’t help but feel happy for this mother and son. I’ll leave it to others to debate its authenticity.

The Viral Clip

Recently, a short clip appeared on Instagram and TikTok, shared by @mineyprinceyzhakkyloven, who has not confirmed its authenticity, which makes it somewhat questionable. In the video, a U.S. Marine in dress blues arrives at a front door with superimposed text telling the story: his mother thought he was dead and hadn’t seen him in seven years.

Probable Explanations

There could be valid answers to all these questions. The video doesn’t specify that she believed he died seven years ago, only that they hadn’t seen each other in that time. Perhaps she received word recently that he had died, but he had been away for a long time before that.

Embracing the Positivity

I’m sharing this clip because I want to believe it could be real and because of its heartwarming caption, “Have you ever been this happy?” It makes us ponder why it takes thinking your child was dead to feel that kind of joy. Why not celebrate them every day, knowing that one day at least one of you won’t be around anymore?

Focus on What’s Important

Rather than diving into the online debate about the clip’s authenticity, I appreciate it for the possibility it represents and the powerful reminder of what’s truly important. Watch the video above and let us know your thoughts!
