I don't seem like a small town puppeteer
I look like a big time puppeteer 😂
She does talk like an entertainer^^
Big-time puppeteer energy. 😂😂😂
“I said I was sick, not ugly”. Such a perfect response to the ‘you don’t look sick’ crowd!
I have the same illness as the woman in the clip (ie Sickle-Cell Disease), and am very used to the "you don't look sick" question. As presumptuous and inappropriate as the question is, I also wouldn't want to associate an outwards, physical expression of being sick (such as our extreme pain episodes, for example) as being ugly, either.
Hello sarah
one of my friends have MS & she gets that A LOT lol - it affects people so differently & can be a very “hidden” disease.
I have MS and I get that a lot, as well. I sometimes answer with something like "Stay tuned! If you stick around, you'll notice more"
I have MS too, people constantly say I don't look sick. The girl's so positive, super cool!
In the first one I wondered why Thoraya was laughing at the lady's story before I saw her friend. I thought it was so out of character for her 😂
I'd love to know "What makes you feel safe" or " where do you feel the safest".....? Thank you for this outstanding content.! ♡♡♡
i would love this
Good question.
Wow... I was just thinking about this the other day. I have no idea. I don't think I've ever felt safe and I'm trying to figure out how to connect with that.
Great one. My husband is what makes me feel safe and at peace. We both grew up in abusive homes in a cult that we escaped together 10 yrs ago. We met as babies, became eachothers first and only bf and gf at ages 15 and 16 and got married at 18 and 19. We've spent 17 wonderful years together and faced every challenge life threw at us. He is home ❤
Home is definitely my safest nest,
The two ladies who were friends for 20 years give such homey vibes! I loved them!
The laughing during the first clip 😭
😂😂😂
at first i thought thoraya was laughing and i was like THORAYA NOOOO DON'T LAUGH 🤣🤣🤣 those two have such a sweet friendship ❤️🔥
Thought it was a bird or wild chicken
Offensive 🤷🏽♀️🙍🏽♀️
the married and divorced with three kids lady is so beautiful!
I love looking at the beauty in people’s faces ❤
💯🩵🤍🩵
People won't believe that I have everything together, that I struggle everyday to get things done.
Oh honey! I’m sorry to hear this. I hope things get better for you! 💕🙏🏻❤️
@@sheilamiller6435 oops I just realized I put an extra "don't", now the message is correct 😅. Thank you, I'm doing well, I just think that maybe people could have the perception that I excell in everything and I'm just like everyone 🙂.
We are the same. And when I finally break down everything that’s going on in my life and I’m stared at in shock because people just assume I have it all together. When, no, I’m struggling like crazy. I just don’t have the energy to cry about it anymore.
2:35 whattt just casually ran into brady watt 😂
I love humanity! We should remind ourselves of our connection more often
100% I agree!!!!
"These are a lot more questions than three" I have no doubt this man is mathematically inclined xD
5:21 "Nothing is good or bad unless you think this is good or bad and decide it is good or bad."
What an underrated quote, once you realize this - NOTHING in this world can hurt you unless it's yourself!
That touched me😭
As soon as I heard it watching the movie I started looking for a comment about it - 3rd one from the top - did not have to search long! 😀
This quote is dangerous advice, it's possible people can be bad or good, if they are a danger to you, and you don't perceive them correctly then your actions won't coincide with the actual reality that's occurring, so to conclude much in reality is good or bad or even both, even if you don't think of such.
@@Lee-ws4fr this is also incorrect. You can have the worst people around you, yet there are still other people out here who would disagree with you for hating on a person. This goes the other way around as well, where a charismatic, positive person can be disliked by others.
Your truth is not the truth for everyone else.
the Nazis didn't think it was bad to kill Jews. i'm pretty sure it was.
Aa, " Nothing is inherently goood or bad, unless you tell yourself it's good or bad " This quote resonated with me because oftentimes I overthink things and that makes the situation more complicated than it is. It was a nice reminder to relax and enjoy the process, thank u Thoraya : )
This !
I disagree.
“There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so” is a quote from William Shakespeare’s tragedy, Hamlet. It appears in Act II, Scene 2 and is spoken by Hamlet.
@@Narwhaltat I still disagree.
"It is a bit windy for my liking" 😅 love it.
I always look forward to Miss Thoraya’s most recent creative challenge … thank YOU for what you do
Every time I watch your videos, I heal a little more.
1st guy is so handsome I would of thought he was in his 20s and that ladies shades & lipstick was serving looks so good on her!!
The puppeteer woman right in the beginning just became my absolute stranger-crush. Something you wouldn't believe about me: About 15 years ago, little gay me used to create my "dream woman" on Sims and she actually looks exactly like her. If you’re reading this and you’re a lesbian, feel free to move to Germany and marry me 😂 (I'm not as serious and creepy about this as I might sound. Just wanted to make your day because I think you’re really cute and you have great charisma 🤗)
This is so cute 🥹
Hopefully the lord can set you free. 1 Corinthians 6:9

Very sweet. Thanks for sharing.
@@methemusicwitchmelissa9838 what does that line say?
I really enjoy your channel. I think we need more people like you in our world.
How beautiful all these human beings are...
something about her catching everyone’s beauty
This was great confirmation of a worldwide heart opening experience. This was a very nice compilation. People are waking up to the divine power of holiness=wholeness=health
✌🏽❤️🙏🏻 people judge all over the place…. We don’t have to believe it. That’s the power of loving self first and foremost.
May peace be with everyone’s hearts. ❤
Something you wouldn't believe about me: I speak 9 languages. Not only speaking, but also reading, writing, conjugate verbs in the proper form, also the correct grammar. French, English, Russian, Ukrainian, Czech, Arabic: Iraqi, Saudi, and Egyptian dialect.
Last guy. Such a lovely soul! See a place for yourself before taking other people's opinions/prejudice about it. Also.born and raised in a big city. I feel it also as an ambassador of my country in my new country. Learn, travel. You will be surprised.
I’m 59 years old and have been living in what seems like a loveless marriage for nearly 30 years and am trapped because I can’t afford leave.
That's sad😢
@@ProudtobegermanI am, I’m tired.
Im very sorry to hear that ! Nothing worse than being with someone and feeling completely alone. Please some how some way make an exit strategy for yourself. A healthy one. Time isn't up. There are a lot of us in bad relationships. Most just hold it in.
@CRJR94 Sending you Love & Light 💛 💫 🌟 🫶
You only live once so don’t waste any more time of your life being unhappy. Get out!!! You will be proud of yourself later! I mean it!
YOU CAN DO THIS!!
Something each of you may not believe about yourselves is that you're all beautiful!
That's so cliché.
Everyone has something beautiful about them. @@MS-br3ir
I had a similar experience to the girl who went to juvie but never got to smoke her pot. I went to a correctional program for truancy when I was young because I missed a lot of school for general health problems. Next thing I know I'm going from an innocent 13 year old who had never done anything to hanging out with kids who stole motorcycles and did drugs. I never would have ended up meeting those people had the government not decided I was a truant. It really changed the trajectory of my life.
I'm so sorry you had to go through that...didn't your parents explain to the authorities why you couldn't go to school?
Hope you're doing fine now ❤
I loved this Thoraya,thank you so very much
5:40 👏👏 yes instead of looking and focusing on the “bad” why not just see it the way you want and ultimately believe it & therefore achieve that.
What you think about you bring about. What you focus on grows. What you believe you will achieve. You have the power to choose these things ❤
Loving the near death experience! Transformed her life!
I wanna know why that lady is banned from Canada😂
Obvious speculation but they take certain charges v seriously over there. For example, 1 OVI conviction= 10 years banned from entering Canada
@@courtneysmith2917 Wow!
But that would apply to non-Canadians, right?
@@courtneysmith2917 What is an OVI conviction?
Me too 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Out of the blue, but I'm so glad it wasn't Thoraya laughing at be beginning.
Me too. I was taken aback. Just the woman's friend being a mess.
thank you thoraya for lighting up our day 🧚
Thank you Thoraya
Thank you Thoraya!
Thank you for this 👍🏼
Loved this video! ❤
Beautiful Unique Wonderful People! Love this. Thank you ❤
I prevented an explosion at an airport when I was sixteen
I did it by extinguishing flames inside the cab of a fuel truck that had 8,000 litres of 100 octane avgas in its tank
I wasn't even scared;
I just knew I had to put out the fire and that’s all I did
Always a good day when you post❤
Love your videos!
Our uniqueness and experiences in this world are what make each of us special.
Love the man with the beard. Beautiful sense of humor.
Love love your videos
That I'm not gay, just a really sweet/compassionate straight person.
I think I would like to marry you!
Wow 10 minute felt like a minute. 💜 i love these interviews
I really vibed with the puppeteer ❤
The last guy seems so nice, I want to meet him :)
The two best friends❤️Beautiful friendship.
Hi, Thoraya❤
This is actually my first comment from Japanese girl.
Thank you for always putting out an amazing videos.
You are definitely the sweetest person i've ever seen.
And everytime i see your videos, that makes me kinda emotional or gives me a lot of emotions and perspective.
Thank you so much for your efforts and i appreciate it and admire you so much❤
I'm always here for you when you are going through something tough☺️
3:04 Her story had me dying 😂
The guy that said he doesn't drink or gamble. Me either. They are both losing propositions. Not made to enhance your life in any way. And the lady that says perspective, that is a true statement. Its all in how you see things. If I am chosen to do the big project, cool, I get to be a part of something huge. If I am not chosen to do the big project, cool, I will have time to catch up on much needed things at home this month. Its how I see it. I try to not set myself up to be disappointed. Keeping it real.
You are very articulate. Being level headed is under rated in these times. Keep reaching out. The rest of us need you.
I’m fairly certain that guy was lying to be funny… he said he was thin too
I wanna be friends with so many of these people
The first lady is so effortlessly cool. lol
That my soul has experienced life on some other planets and galaxies - That I had one of my Star Families come to visit me.
Hey Thoraya, loving the vids 😊. Could you let me know when the merch will be available again?
❤ from India
Everyone has a story. There is always more to people than you would guess. And the older a person is, the truer this is.
I guess people wouldn't believe about me that I'm deeply wary of others. A small thing you say or do will make me consider you not a trustworthy person that can never be a true friend. But I will not show it and still act the same around you afterwards, even though I'll never forget that one moment. Don't know if that's healthy, but I've been burned twice by people I considered best friends and both times I did not listen to my gut, so this is kinda my way of learning from it. It's lonely sometimes though
I'm similar, except with character flaws. I can be close with someone for years until I see a moment of them that is so unhealthy that no amount of good will thereafter will erase what I saw. It's happened a few times and I have a difficult time getting that moment to stop replaying in my mind. For example, never had a problem with my bff's boyfriend until he got drunk and hit her [roughly!] across the face with a coat and pushed her off the sidewalk. That's forever burned in me. Drunk or not, that was in him and I can't get past it.
i can relate to you!
I hope I run in to you omg I love your work
8:52 wish i could mimic this laugh at will- it's so melodically dope❤
To the lady with the 9.5 toes, I think that’s actually kinda cool!
"If you only had 1 day left to live and you could do whatever you wanted, what would that day look like for you?"
No different than today ❣️🫶
And I knew I was dying? I'd pray, eat a wonderful meal if I could stomach it, make many phone calls. I'd also write a will and have it notarized and email it out. And I'd write very lengthy letters to my husband, children and mom. Then cry myself to sleep.
Okay, I want a full storytime with the woman who went over the waterfall! Was it an NDE as in you experienced something other-wordly? If so, what was that like? What job did you leave? What are you doing now? So many questionssssss!!
Hey Rachel
I would love to know the full story too. I hope she sees this comment!
Hi Rachel and Kelcey, that was me! My NDE happened when I passed out (because I actually got stuck on the tree for 15 mins). I saw the light at the end of the tunnel and thought “so that’s what it looks like.” It really is beautiful. I then had a vision of my family sitting around my parents family room and it was so sad. I knew that wasn’t how I wanted to leave this world. That’s I woke up and decided I had to get “unstuck.” Eventually I was able to shift my footing and pull my foot out of my shoe and a group of people who had come to help me pulled me out. They stayed with me until the helicopter came.
I DO believe that experience has connected me deeply to “otherworldly” realms as well as my own spiritual nature.
At the time I was the Director of an English Language school and my supervisor was extremely difficult to work with. I hated it. I decided when I came out of the waterfall that I would only do things in life that I absolutely loved. I am now a fitness & wellness coach and also work in the cannibas industry (shoutout the the girl who got sent to Juvi 😂)
I recently did an AMA on my instagram account and posted it to my highlights. You can find it on my profile @jenjnyjnfr titled “nde”
@@jfrodsham87 oh wow, that is absolutely fascinating!! Thank you so much for your explanation! I'm glad you're living your best life now 🥰 And I'll def check out your AMA!
Something you wouldn't believe about me: I had a stroke and I have aphasia (loss of ability to understand or express speech, caused by brain damage). I can talk, read, and write a little.
And here you are. Sharing. Thank you. Something tells me, you are a beautiful person who loves life more than most. Peace
@@seandunn1128 thank you 🥹
That Michael W. Smith song is soooooooo good!
People wouldn’t believe that I actually HATE being around other people because I have learned to be a pro pleaser due to childhood trauma. It’s called acting…sometimes I even get caught in the act. #exhausting
Bro this!
I miss your podcasts Hey Stranger thoraya😭
just checked - i can do the sock thing too. it's pretty easy, i can't believe most people wouldn't be able to do that
5:50 Inspiring. ❤
To the “black” Latina, I feel you girl! I’m “el gringo” 😂
Speaking Spanish doesn’t mean she isn’t black though. It’s an ethnicity not a race. She’s “black” 😳
She was saying that people portray her as a black woman who probably couldn’t speak spanish, but she is not black she’s spanish/latina. She said it correctly. Same thing with me, I go somewhere and people think I’m some white boy who don’t know spanish, but if they only knew I am from Honduras and fluent in spanish they wouldn’t try to talk mess. Which is why I say I feel what she sayin.
To the 1st generation Jordanian: sister, as a second generation Syrian, I promise it only gets weirder.
the woman with 9 and a half toes made me cry a little
I'm an amateur interviewer, and I'm curious how everyone is so comfortable and open in their answers. Is it the way you ask them to do the interview? Do you just include the people who happened to be open in the video?
Its a reflection of her own openess. Every sentence is grounded on a deep friendship. Even though its planned and lasting maybe only for a few minutes ...
You got to love each and everyone in front of you. And love (which includes security) finds love, recognizes love.
@@aenimalis8079 thats such good advice, thank you
I love the story about the gal who bought weed and got caught.
So funny!
Thoraya, you moved to NYC?? I have loved all your Balboa Park videos. California misses you.
Puppeteer lady: I remember seeing you in the early 90s as an Assemblies of God church in Missouri. Can confirm nobody would believe I was a conservative Christian, either.
Nothing wrong with conservative Christianity. It’s not an easy way to live but nothing true is easy.
@@srodriguez721 - "nothing true is easy" - oh honey, my heart truly breaks for you and I hope you find your way out one day like we did.
@@srodriguez721 I have nothing against Conservative Christianity, but growing up in it truly was one of the hardest things ever. The expectation to be Godly and Biblical, the judgement, the fear, etc. Yes, there are many Christians who are not like this but there are many who are unfortunately. My parents believe I had spirits in me during my teenage years and still do, even though its normal to be rebellious during that time and develop my own beliefs. I hardly ever talk to my parents about what I am struggling with and though it is tormenting I would rather deal with that than constantly being judged for failing to know better. My parents expect me to have an almost identical relationship with God to them even though its not like that at all. If my parents knew I was gay they would disown me without question.
@@somethingliken You spoke the truth when you said not all Christian people are like this. There are people who misinterpret the Bible and become abusive… this is not true Christianity. That being said, I hope that you have healed from the things you suffered as a kid and hopefully have not walked away from God’s truth because of people😔🙏🏻
@@Angela-ne9cy Your heart breaks for me… why is that?
People wouldnt guess i hate my life and am depressed bc im so bubbly around others. I think money would solve many of my issues. Im sad bc of a failed marriage, a special needs son that i cant send many therappies bv of no money, clubs my kids cant join bc i have no money, things like that
I hate to see the New York accent disappearing. People nationwide are adopting the California accent or some facsimile thereof.
I’m African American and my family is from the northern east coast since we got off the boats from Africa and the Caribbean in the Colonial era during slavery. We’re from Philadelphia, Connecticut, Massachusetts, and mostly, New York City.
My grandmother, born in 1910, had that old New York Jewish accent a la George Burns. My mom, who was born in 1933, spoke classic “Brooklynese”. Think, a young Barbara Streisand or a young Diahann Carroll. I remember growing up in the 60s listening to her use words like “frankfurter”, “dungarees”, and “sneakers”, words no one else we knew ever said.
My siblings and I were born and spent our formative years in the Ocean Park neighborhood of Santa Monica, CA. We had that classic, post-war, white-kid L.A. accent. You can hear it in kids from predominantly white L.A. areas who were born here in the 40s, 50s, and 60s. A perfect example is Tony Dow who played Wally on Leave it to Beaver and Greg, Marsha, Jan, and Cindy Brady and some of the other youngsters who were guest stars on the Brady Bunch. The accent eventually became synonymous with surfers and young people from the Valley (the San Fernando Valley in particular). Today, the accent is slightly different than its mid-century version. But for some reason, as of late, everyone thinks it’s the accent to have and they’ve decided to adopt some version of what they think it’s supposed to sound like.
In New York, only small pockets of people still speak with a New York accent. Mainly, it seems, it’s an expression of their neighborhood and ethnic identity. Jews, Italians, Puerto Ricans (who in the old days were referred to as “Spanish”), and African Americans all had their own versions of the New York accent which also varied by burrough.
Elderly New Yorkers still have accents, but as the City gentrifies and more transplants move in, the New York accent is rapidly going extinct. 😢
Noone would believe that I survived a really horrible situation including dv and had to claw my way out during the thick of the pandemic and lock downs. ✌️
I am glad you got out!
If I saw him somewhere I think I would be drawn to Mr Divine, the seeker. Everyone here seemed to have a magnetic personality though 😊

This is why you don't assume shit about people. Just focus on yourself being a decent human being, mind your business and extend decency to others.

NAHHH COME BACK I WANT THE CANADA STORY
@Thoraya please come to indiana
Gonna check out the music mr watt
Something you wouldn’t believe about me is that I wasn’t the favorite child. I am the youngest and I’ve got my shit together, so people always assume I’ve been handed everything. Truth is, I got ignored a lot growing up and my parents didn’t really care about me. I had to figure out stuff myself since they never had my best interest in mind and were always trying to manipulate me.
Congratulations on being your own best friend! Proud of you 🥰 ❤️ 🫶
come on Micheal w. Smith puppeteer!! lol never thought of that to spread the gospel 😭💗
Is that the actress from claws the 1st lady? You can tell they are fun friends!!!
9:31 many of us that hand incline towards STEM careers believe at some point that arts and creative expression are not for us, let alone having a spiritual side, since it's not scientific.
