This is how I realistically romanticize my life 💕 (it will change your perspective!)

  • The key to romanticizing life is to see the beauty in your own life, instead of trying to make your life aesthetically perfect or comparing it to someone elses' seemingly perfect life.
    “But if you knew you might not be able to see it again tomorrow, everything would suddenly become special and precious, wouldn’t it?”
    ― Haruki Murakami

    We are so used to seeing edited lives on social medias that we're forgetting that that's not real life.
    It's taking away the joy we can experienced in our tiny daily mundane moments 😊

    Dear Sophie, I’m the silent type of audience who love watching your videos without making comments. Yet this video inspires me so much to do so. Your message came at a perfect time when I’m hoping to make changes in some aspects of my life. While there is much to be grateful for, I noticed myself subtly looking at the lack or imperfections either in myself or in my environment based on the externalities projected by others. Thank you so much for bringing this message to clear light so that we could live the life true to our heart and soul. Love from Singapore 💕

    I love the idea of treating more moments like “first times”. You’re right that going on a walk with a dog or a toddler, even if it is the same walk you take every day, is always exciting. There is this huge anticipation of finding a new leaf, a new scent, a new person, or a new experience that keeps them moving forward ready to explore. This idea also helps us all slow down and pay attention. Such an important reminder!

    Your video reminded me of one of my favourite quotes. "If the stars should appear one night in a thousand years, how would men believe and adore; and preserve for many generations the remembrance of the city of God which had been shown." It always reminds me to appreciate the beauty around us with that childlike wonder, instead of taking it for granted!

    This really hit the spot today, thank you. Have been feeling pretty bummed out, because I want changes but currently have to accept what is. I think we all only look at the lives of others when we’re dissatisfied in some way. What I like about your videos is how much you remind us all of the power we have to curate each moment. Knowing the power to create is always with me just makes my soul melt. 💕💐 ps hope you feel better now. I’m recovering from an awful cold and wonder if it’s my body’s way of making me just take stock of the magic of having good health over anything else.

    I choose not to compare. When I feel myself comparing, I try to go do something else. It's REALLY hard not to it's so human to do that but honestly? Comparison is the thief of joy as they say. I'm a lot happier using social media less. I'm happier just enjoying the little things and feeling gratitude as much as possible. Life is hard but it could be SO MUCH WORSE. And HAS been for me specifically!

  • @craignovy2090
    @craignovy2090 19 годин тому

    I really enjoy taking walks and just wander around but sometimes my anxiety pops up and makes me feel stuck. But I discovered what helps me get out of my head in these moments is taking reference pictures for my art. I then shift from worriyng to really seeing my surroundings, trying to get an nice angle and planning which elements I might want to change or add for a future illustration! This little mindfulness exercise really helped me and maybe it will help another creative soul out there as well. Lots of love and appreciation from a German art girl

    I started my minimalism/de-cluttering journey during the pandemic and was not even aware there was such a thing called "minimalism". However, seeing your videos inspire me more on living my life simply and intentionally. My life has changed so much since I have learned to detach myself from things (and even some people) and started to create a more meaningful life outside the culture of consumerism.

  • @lindsayhone5862

    I don’t know why but it was so helpful that you said that most days your not at the ocean or outsite but also at home as everyone. Because many UA-camrs tell that their life is normal as well but while saying that, they’re doing fancy stuff and everything is so beautiful. I don’t mean it as an accusation; I would also just want to show the bright side. But I think it’s important to show that life is simple. Beautiful, but simple. So I’m really thankful that you said that. I wish everyone the best 🤍

    I really like that you stress the importance of perspective and I'd also add a matter of mindset that allows us to enjoy our life and not chasing shadows of someone else's
    Three to four years ago, my ideal self was someone who exercised regularly, saved money, worked with people and not only with technology, spent winters in sunny places (I have seasonal depression), owned only necessary things, and was a loving and appreciative partner. Today, I am that person, and I am truly happy, even though I gave up a career, steady salary, and comfort. Sometimes I think I couldn’t be happier living my life the way I feel and see it.

I appreciate you share a lot of your thoughts, phylosophy of your life and show how to enjoy life.

    Hey Sophie good to always catch up with your relaxing videos. With what you said that's why in the commandments of God it says we must not envy anyone's life because in real sense we don't know how they got or had to do to get all those things. Some had to work hard and honest passing through difficult challenges to get there and some had to do things related to the dark side to get there. Although it's not easy not to envy but we try. Well said find the personal reason to keep going. And for me what one thing that would bring joy is to be grounded in Christ because He surely brings stability in this chaotic life.
