There is just no life's mission guys...life is a given. THE question seems casual, but in fact, is important to me, looking for answers to avoid loosing precious time. My personal findings : spirituality (looking for inner happiness first) hiking (done the GR20 this summer) putting job at the right place (just for money and just when needed). I was curious to discover Madeira, looking for a new start...and subscribed your Chanel because it seems real and refreshing...you are such a nice couple, love in your eyes...in fact it is so simple to be happy :)
The reason life does not seem full is because there is a perfect explanation for that. God puts the searching in our heart so that we will search for the answer and find him. A loving, gracious God who yearns for his children to have a relationship with him.
Life is an organism. It has a bell curve of random existence. It's cognative, emotional, and physical. Every living being is driven by their capacity to cope with their circumstances and to evolve or not. In the end, there is a short legacy and we are forgotten. Live it well.
Sad to see a couple that on the face of it are so successful and live what looks like a wonderful life in a wonderful place seem so malcontent. I mean, what hope is there for the rest of us plebs?!
Im sorry you think we feel sad and miserable. Thats really not the case. We are just addressing a lot of the conundrums of life - like money not buying happiness which seems to be your belief based on your comment 😃. We have a great life but the idea that we have a perfect life just bc we have this and that is flawed - unfortunately
@@joenandamalie I get that you seem unfulfilled and lacking in purpose, I certainly have never thought that money brings happiness but it does buy you time to to self contemplate and analyze. Appreciate it's oversimplifying things when attempting to judge someone elses contentment from their social media output as it's obviously heavily edited(mostly) and nobody has a perfect life. Just a bit confused after the previous upbeat video about your new venture, I thought this was the direction you were going in after lots of navel gazing.
Why do we always think that life has to make sense? We waste so much time with such questions and become depressed, because we don't find an answer. Everything you do probably makes no sense to others and opposite. Our whole system is made for overthinking and questioning everything. Like this, we constantly are afraid to risk our existence for maybe better and have to leave our comfort zone, which sometimes seems impossible! I see myself often hesitating and overthinking everything. Until I made a decision, the train was long gone. I'm quite sure if you bring forward all your wonderful goals you were talking about in some of your last videos, you'll find your sense in life, and you both will feel fulfilled and happy. I wish it to both of you very much. Stay how you are. You make everything right!
It's good to ask questions. Big questions. Small questions. It's what makes life fun even if we don't have the answers. Overthinking is definitely a by-product of our system and thinking too much is never good. Our goals still stand, but as we have learned already in life, meeting our goals won't fill the bucket. When we hit 100.000 subscribers it changed nothing. It was almost a disappointing feeling 😂, so what difference will one million subs make? Or building our retreat? Happiness and joy is in the present moment, but it's hard to rewire your brain to really believe that.
@joenandamalie the excitement is the way, the process to reach your goals on your bucket list. One time achieved, it feels quite normal, how you say it's almost a disappointing feeling.
@@joenandamalie Cheer up, you're living the dream, there's millions who have it much worse then you and me, live and enjoy we're only here for a short time, after 50 everything starts going down hill.
Really it's why they don't turn the wheel all the way while reversing out of a spot... it makes no sense. Even my wife calls out other women, like why don't you turn the wheel?
Life was simpler in the middle ages. There was no need for overthinking, because all big questions have been answered by religion and a hierarchy of privilege and responsibilities that "always" existed.
To get 1M followers I think you would need one big theme like other +1M channels have. You just need to decide what is your specialty. Your videos are allways very entertaining and high quality so I believe 1M is quite possible.
"Action that is inspired from aligned thought is joyful action. Action that is offered from a place of contradicted thought is hard work that is not satisfying and does not yield good results. When you really feel like jumping into action, that is a clear sign that your vibration is pure and you are not offering contradicting thoughts to your own desire. When you are having a hard time making yourself do something, or when the action you offer does not produce the results you are seeking, it is always because you are offering thoughts in opposition to your desire." ~ Abraham-Hicks

We have done some charity already, but we are always busy with our own job, so it's hard to squeeze more in. We are soulmates, and don't find the institution of marriage important. We have each other and that's what matters! :)
@@joenandamalie Yes, but God established marriage between one man and one woman from the Garden of Eden. We honor Him, by honoring His Word. God bless. ✝️
Thanks for this video. It did make me think about life and finding contentment. As someone who does believe in God, it made me think of this quote by CS Lewis, "Creatures are not born with desires unless satisfaction for those desires exists. A baby feels hunger: well, there is such a thing as food. A duckling wants to swim: well, there is such a thing as water. Men feel sexual desire: well, there is such a thing as sex. If I find in myself a desire which no experience in this world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that I was made for another world."
God has a purpose for each and every one of us. If you know God and have a relationship with Him, he will show you the path. Getting married and having a family gives your life meaning and purpose.
A bit like Golf it makes no sense......yet remember we are not of this world and this life is only about a key and very key reason, be sure to understand this. And shave and get married, get out of that shell. Now all the bashing as one is not allowed to have opinion in this world get out of your confirmation and normalcy bias and a lot will make more sense. Great vid!
Guys I love your channel and watch all your videos, but that phone that kept asking all the questions........Ouch, I'm sorry but after 8 minutes it was annoying the s**t out of me. Please don't use the endless-questions-phone again in another video. Looking forward to the next video as always. Cheers!

pff so many useless questions . there is no need to overcomplicate everything. life it s meant to be lived with a higher deeper long term goal or purpose. happiness it s not the objective , meaningful life it s the main goal. happiness and misery come as byproduct of pursuing your goals. achieving an objective/goal/target which you thought will make you happy it s actually not so fullfiling but the the pursuit of that goal with ups and downs it s what gives you happiness!, aim higher! comfort and easy life will never make anyone happy, just content
Life will make sense when you start having babies and start sharing the beauty of God's creation with your children. Remember, "Go forth and multiply." Humanity's fallen nature is rooted in selfishness.
