I discovered this musician last night. After listening and watching to this clip and others, I was almost ready to just quietly give my guitars away and never admit to touching the instrument.

This clip also has this incredible bit of text with it.
"Have you ever felt invisible? In a world of 7.6 billion people it’s extremely hard to be noticed. There are so many amazing people who have a lot to say but they don’t manage to make themselves heard, because their voices are too gentle and this world is too loud. How many times have you felt like no one wants to listen to what you have to say? It doesn’t feel very good, that’s for sure. You might feel like it’s not even worth to go on. You try to scream your message until you burn out and you lose your voice, and still no one hears you. Some people give up. I decided to dig into this topic by playing my latest arrangement in a crowded and chaotic place. To simulate how the world works, I decided not to use any amplification. Of course there was simply too much noise so barely anyone stopped. But instead of feeling discouraged I learnt something important. You should never stop giving the best of yourself to this world. Don’t let the world silence you. Keep spreading beauty even when you don’t get recognition for it. You are not invisible if you can see yourself."
