“That’s just me ranting” *casually drops the most beautiful and poetic words that have ever graced my soul*

[twoleggedhijabi]

Thank you for existing and shown women that change is possible and beautiful and not scary at all I love you so much Hitomi

[Nitengohain]

Cannot describe in words how much calm and gentle this video is. Being here is just like a paradise to me. Tons of love and hugs to you Gorgeous 🦭

The ending chat feels so sacred. I feel like your vulnerability is what sets you apart from other creators. I dont know, i just keep hearing the phrase “someones gotta do it” and im glad you chose to be that one. Thanks for opening your heart

[jeehhtk]

"I wonder why time has to run out when I have found the right words to say". Gosh, that hit me like a train. Your poetry is so profound and I completely hear what you're saying. It's bittersweet when we finally become these loving, understanding adults that have the skills to heal past traumas but those that we want to heal with can't heal with us.

[janellepaige]

"there was love that could have happened that never happened" ! wow. that grief processing is extremely relatable

[aabarrientos]

21:07 “I wonder why time has to run out right when I have found the right words to say” this line brought me to tears. I empathize with this sm having lost my dad so early on and not being able to talk to him about all the trauma tht was caused. It’s such a heartbreaking thing to feel this and mastering the art of surrender isnt an easy journey. Thank you sm for sharing your beautiful words and letting us be a witness to your soul ✨ I wish you more healing. ♥️

mother wounds are so difficult to talk about... but u create an open and safe space for all of us to open up about it. thank u for being so brave and loving

[amyc]

You're not being "extra" at all!! You describe the human experience so beautifully, in a way that I relate so closely to, and I admire your ability to put it into words.
Men have 3+ hour podcasts on their half baked/adapted philosphies - you don't have to preface your musings on the world. Your voice is vital to the community and you are entitled to share your art with them!

Typewriting outside in the rain is as romantic as it gets. This whole video is such a vibe and helped me stay calm on a rough day. Thank you Hitomi❤️

There is actually some scientific evidence that "savoring" certain experiences can elevate dopamine levels and reduce depression - it's actually super healthy. I think this idea of romanticizing only seems a bit problematic because of the word we use to describe it. There is a big difference between dissociating/fantasizing and savoring - it definitely sounds like your idea of romanticizing falls into the latter!

[jennasykes]

My anxiety has been crippling the past couple days & this helped me catch my breath. Thank you 🖤

[NYKIRA]

Really enjoying the reflection at 19:05 Hitomi, just being able to witness yourself in whatever may come up and allowing it to pass, tapping into that inner knowing that you'll be okay, this is truly so wise and beautiful to see 💖

[elenavillegas]

The way you write and create stories through journaling is so beautiful and poetic❤️

[lovelifementoring]

The same happened with my mum, she forgot everything and became so extra sweet and had an appreciation for me. I was told that despite this I should speak my truth to her, so both she and I can clear it ready for her to move on. I never did, so I have been releasing this since. ❤ I would love to get a typewriter. Thank you for all your reminders x

[myfunstuff]

I love how you show up. Keep romanticizing life, I am here for it. And now you can do it from a place of healing verses when you were doing it for survival. I enjoy doing it as well and love the beauty of the simple things that we can romanticize.

[Olitoia]

how boring life would be if we didn't romanticise every moment to the fullest. it doesn't make you out of touch with reality, quite the opposite!! you endlessly inspire me to find joy and sacredness and ease in the simplest of pleasures

[nochannel]

It took me a while to acknowledge that the reason why I sometimes had violent or agressive thoughts would be because I felt angry all the time. I used to feel angry because of the suffering I had endured and the feeling of unfairness. But today I mostly consider myself lucky because I have a depth of experience and an outlook on life that not everybody has.

[evamilthers]

Wow, you really have a writing talent! That text you wrote and read aloud in the end was incredibly touching and beautiful. I hope you collect your poems and written thoughts in a book some day <3 I would love to read it!

[sophiamorales]
