I first watched a video from this channel when I was 13, over four years ago, and I still find myself coming back from time to time. This channel is like that quiet friend in your friend group that you’re closer with than anyone else because they’re the only one who can fully understand and address your problems

[kenrickbautista]

Paying compliments and doing kind (/nice) things for others is one of the only things that distract me from my unpleasant thoughts. Being a good person to those around me brings out the absolute best in me and it made me feel a little better.

For me, I've struggled to accept that I might not have kids of my own. Largely because I'm massively introverted, hyper self-aware to being borderline self-sabotaging, and can come across as blunt or rude in conversation when I get bored of a given topic.

So I decided to try and write a book. IT's been painfully slow, but I want to leave something behind that might help people. And if it's telling the tale of a loyal knight that lived to see retirement, hates it, and re-discovers his purpose in his twilight years, then I'll make it happen!

This video could not have been any more well timed. It’s given a tiny bit of hope during a difficult time for me, thank you 🙏

I have worked for so long already, and only scored nothing to the bare minimum of what I was hoping for. It can get super depressing to not get a single big win out of the millions of big failures, but I have learned to cherish a few small victories. I cannot look in the mirror and genuinely smile, anymore, but I can still help others gain a smile. It's nice being there for others, even if they aren't really there for me. Only problem is that I grow envious, but that's my fault.

I'm glad you made this video. My life isn't a complete waste; I simply wish most of it had brighter days.

I needed this, thank you so much for always being there whenever we need help! ❤️

[Mitski_MARINAenjoyer]

I love these videos, they help me learn about myself and truly inspire me..

[MrLiminalPhoenix]

Life is difficult, hard to trust, and unfair. But remember, you don't start with a life. You make one.

So write the life you want, be the person you want to be. You too can be happy

[heathersaintclaire]

I really needed to hear this. I’m currently in a transitional part of my life and have felt a little stuck getting to the next part of my life

[flamegamer]

This video really helped out. So all that free time I spent for myself was not time wasting. Same goes to figuring things out of what I want to do next. And I realize I can help others before myself.

[TheMCzorro]

Make sure you're careful with helping people with nothing in return. I love it personally, it's when people star taking it for granted, then it becomes a problem

[marionbenson]

Thank you for the video i really needed that

[lanethefroglover]

Hey you made my day even better i was in a foul mood and i calmed down and your voice is also really calming so thank you for just being on my recommended 💙💙

I love the artstyle on this one, and also, I cried! I don't think I cry happy tears a lot but I've been struggling thinking that I will die one day. I love this video so much and I don't know what to say. I haven't watched your channel in a while but I realized I should more often, it helps.
