    As I always say, these videos are like a reset on my brain, always forcing me to breathe and bring me back to where I belong. I get so emotional watching these beautiful works of art. I wish I could sit down and have a cup of tea with every single person in each of these videos, sharing life stories and wisdom. This channel is so necessary and I try to share it with everyone I know. Thank you so much for the important work you are doing for the world. ❤️

    I totally relate. I was tormented by my drunken stepfather from 5 to 17. My mother never protected me. At 17 I joined the Army. The Army transformed the anger and hate and transformed me into a man capable of extreme violence. At 27 I was an alcoholic and passively suicidal. I left the Army did a 180 and became a nurse. I met a woman who saved me. She helped me untangle my jumbled up past one string at a time. Now at 58, I'm grateful for life, family, and the gift of life. I love this channel and stories/wisdom that it brings. Thank you.

    My little boy is still alive today. He had it rough, but at the point the choice to live or die came, I chose to keep him alive, no matter what. I take care of him, I nurture him, and I give to him, what he is missing. He still yearns to know the why ?? And I don't have those answers, and I don't think we will ever know why, but I have pieced together all the information I have to paint him the partial picture of the why. This message is poignant. Yes, I am grateful every day that I wake up, because that little boy gets another day to see the world.

    Kent’s message, and his "presence of being" is so powerful and inspiring it almost takes your breath away. To be grateful for everything; wow, so much easier said than done! But it rings true when Kent says it; doesn’t seem like just words for the camera. So many of us with so much more seem to struggle with finding that gratitude. Kent's a survivor, but he seems to not only have survived, but thrived. He only hints at some of the things he’s gone through to get to the place of joy, acceptance, and gratitude he’s at today. The journey was no doubt tough, but he made it. Makes me think of the quote by Winston Churchill, “when you’re going through hell, keep going.”

    Such beautiful wisdom about unburdening from our past traumas! Marshall Vian Summers writes about this process of letting go so that we can give our true gifts to the world. "How can you be angry when the world serves you? When you recognize how much the world is serving you, which can only be recognized in the context of Knowledge, you will then end all of your hatred towards the world [and] all of your condemnation... and resistance to the world. This will confirm your true destiny, your true origin and your true purpose for being in the world. You have come into the world to learn and to unlearn. You have come into the world to recognize what is real and what is not. You have come into the world to be a contributor, [which] is the real nature of your presence here." (Steps to Knowledge, Marshall Vian Summers)

    Thank you so so much for sharing his story with us.💚Fell in love with him the moment he got up to open the door for his cat. His words filled my eyes with tears, and my heart, with gratitude. I know how it feels like to hide the pain. How helpless it is when we cannot see a reason to be happy. But later, I found how beautiful this life is. The more we get, the less we see. The less we get, the more we see.😊🌼 Simplicity is the best way to happiness. Giving is the best thing that can bring us happiness. Loving is the best thing that exists in this world. Life can be so beautiful when we let go. This man's words inspired me in a way that words cannot explain. Hats off for Green Renaissance. This channel is an eye-opener. Hope we all can find that inner peace within ourselves.❤🌸

    Carrying around the Wound of my Mums Suicide weighs heavy on my soul, I was 3 years old when she took her life and I'm now in my late 30s and the wound has got harder to deal with the older I get which upsets me massively. This life is beautiful but the dark thoughts are always waiting to resurface and pull me back into myself and it's a daily struggle to see the beauty of this life. Thank you for this video this man seems like a wonderful soul.

    A beautiful soul. I loved listening to him. He hasn't allowed someone else to define how his life will be, he has taken control. His cat is very lucky to own him. 😊

    This is probably the most beautiful one yet. This man could be telling my story, but my childhood abuse came from my grandfather. I'm now in my 60's and still trying to figure out my life. His words spoke so deeply to me. Thank you so very much.

    Such a beautiful story, and such a beautiful life. A man who has found the courage and wisdom to live his life - to accept, embrace and learn from and within his own being. Remarkable, inspiring, deeply moving. Who amongst us has not had passages of pain and darkness, particularly in our childhoods? Yet, who amongst us has returned to embrace that darkness in order to live in the light, as this gentle, brave man has? His life is a celebration of living, of gratitude, of awareness and presence.
    Thank you to him for illuminating the hope and living a life of profound and gentle meaning. Thank you to you all, once again, for your incredible ability to capture personal stories in such beautiful, respectful and life-changing ways. The photography, the music, the editing - beyond breathtaking and so needed by each of us; by the world itself. We are grateful, so grateful. Justin and Kathleen, USA

    Rarely in life I’ve gotten a message ingrained so deeply like this one. It’s not his words and I wasn’t really looking at the video as I got busy … his soul connected to my soul and I listened to what I needed desperately to listen to. I don’t have the right words to express my gratitude for these videos. I know this was for me. Thank you for caring about human beings the way you do. ❤️🙏🏻

    This is what a “real” teacher/guru sounds like and lives like. Simplicity. Transparency. Close to nature. “Here to make this world beautiful.”
