Helping one person might not change the whole world, but it could change the world for one person.
Such a nice comment.
Beautifully articulated!! It really is so much more than cleaning up someone's yard.❤❤❤
Plus I ALWAYS say one RANDOM ACT , OF KINDNESS WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN THIS WORLD.
Amen 🙏🏽
That a really lovely words you said, God Bless you too.from Tasmania Australia 🇦🇺. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I'm a therapist, and I just want to say the way you listened and validated him when he came out is top notch. I can tell you genuinely care. Keep up the great work man.
Keep up the good work!!
I'm not a therapist, but having experienced trauma that I had no control over, I know the value of a good listener and validation of feelings. Sean, you did what that man needed that day. He needed his yard cleaned, and you listened and validated how he felt! Good on you🙏❤️
@@MinnieEvans-m6r 😁 I am not a therapist either but I can tell that Sean is such a blessing to his neighborhood. One house/one person at a time. Hope we do the same by Sean's inspiration in our own little way.
❤❤❤
What do you do to the weed tree stumps?
Mine just grow back
Its my honor to do it. Man, you hit it out of the park. You are doing what neighbors used to do for each other. Please continue to post these examples of your helping the community. Blessings on you.
The fact that the neighbors KNOW his situation, yet did nothing to help him with his yard is disheartening.
We as a WHOLE need a front porch like we did back then.
Blessings and good health from the TN Smokies 🕉
Thank you for taking care of random people
I @@AmericanGal_69 I agree with you. When I lost my husband my neighbors jumped in and did my yard for a while. Even though my grandson and SIL told them they would get it.
@@beverlyroyal9838 when my elderly neighbor lost her veteran husband to cancer, I just started mowing her yard. She tried to pay me, but I refused and told her that it was my pleasure and not to worry about that. When I had a foot surgery, my neighbors husband beside her, mowed.
It's sad times where no one gives a crap about anyone other than themselves.
@@AmericanGal_69 his neighbour was helping him he explained at the beginning he also fell ill
I am 76 years old and I remember when neighbors cared about each other. I really appreciate watching you on the net. God bless you young man.
Apart from the fella with the stents, seems John was slowly fading from everyone else's cross the road memories, with their neat n tidy lawns, as his gone wild growths hid him surely from view...
I spent so much time helping neighbors and teaching my kids. They are older now and when I finally needed help everyone had moved out and those who moved in just keep to themselves. I might as well live in the middle of nowhere
It's still that way in Iowa. I hope johns neighbors help when the yard starts getting overgrown again.
Whats the tool you use to trim along tge edge of the sidewalk?
Sean, thank you for helping out in your community. This really helped out Jon. Please use this gift as you see fit. God Bless.
Oh my goodness! I'm so humbled...thank you. Might go get John some outside furniture. THANK YOU
@MidlifeStockman maybe some roofing material?
@@MidlifeStockman Or at least a comfortable chair with arms and a cushion, where he could sit outside and look at his beautiful lawn.
What an awesome and generous gift.
I wish the Rudan Brothers (Roofing) were in your area to help John. Great work! Would love to see a Blessing Boys collaboration with you!
That man really needed your listening and empathatic kindness. You not only cleared his yard, but you put a pep in his step and had a real conversation together. Which he likely needed as much as he needed the grass cut.
Yes! I loved that he had to get up on the mower :) Pep in his step for sure.
Wonderful!
I'm guessing he has no one to talk to. Us seniors suffer from that alot, including myself.
This Day made his Life worth living in all it's fullness. The Heart of Gratitude is Fullness of the ❤️ Heart..🕯️🕯️💯
@@catieprice3179 Perhaps find another senior who needs a friend.
When he hung his head and said he was so ashamed, I just started bawling. You feel so helpless when you start aging and your body starts failing you. God bless you . I'm so happy for the man❤✌️
That part broke my heart 💔😢
I got something in my eye too@@cynthiahowe
That’s a girl?!
Maybe idk
Nvm he’s a guy
There is a man like John in my neighborhood. I passed his house years ago and knew he needed help. It was way more than I could handle so I contacted a local group who tackle all sorts of projects. The group showed up with about 10 volunteers and within a week, the home looked 30yrs younger. Neighbors helping neighbors.
Poor John. He looked so lost and alone. Probably has no family that takes care of him. Thanks for being so kind to him.
The hardest thing in life, is to go through it alone . . and when your health is bad, it's somehow even worse.
So kind of you. Well done. It looks great. John needs some care. Perhaps the neighbor can connect him to community resources?
You are a wonderful human being! Bless you with all my heart! 🙏😎👍🌺
I was thinking the same thing
I can only imagine, poor John. I feel for him. At least as he looks outside from his windows, he can think of Shawn and what a good job he did for him and that good people do care about the sick and weak out there. It sure was John’s lucky day. I hope this boots his morale for a while…
I’m reclusive myself and the time you took just to listen to this man meant more to him than the clean up. Sometimes being reclusive isn’t a choice. God bless you man. You are a diamond in the rough ❤
He is just a diamond 💎 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
❤❤❤
Yes, I agree, he was a gentleman to do so. He’s a nice guy, that’s clear to all of us…very nice of him to do so…
That is so beautiful. You were so kind and understanding. My heart felt for the homeowner. God continually gives you the strength and courage to help people in need... There are so many elderly that can't do it for themselves¡!! God bless you ❤❤❤
Maybe it would also help you if you could find someone in your community to visit. Maybe just sit outside with them.
you changed that mans life, not only did you clean his place up, when he talked to you, you made him feel seen, you are an inspiration and the world needs more people like you
Well said
You’re a good man, very compassionate and caring
You didn't just cut his yard for him, you help him start rebuilding his life again. His wife's passing left a big hole in him. Thank you for being a blessing!
Those awful, stressful moments when one thinks " I'm too old, too unwell, too useless to mow my lawn, walk outside in Natures beauty and find peace of mind 😢 ", then Sean arrives and the sun shines amongst the shadows of beautiful trees and suddenly life is brighter. Thank you Sean for your kindness and empathy towards others and the joy you feel doing it. Thank you 😊.
Every man, woman and child are falling in love with you on the internet in your videos. You can't be that kind without emitting much love from others. May the world bless both you and your family .
Thank you so much for helping that older gentleman out! What a transformation!!! Thanks again for all you do to help people who definitely need it! God Bless you and your family! love watching you!
This one really hit me in the feels. I’m not elderly but have a progressive disabling disease, and seeing John overwhelmed with emotion-well. Sean, you did so much more than clean up a yard. You made him feel like he still matters to the world. Thank you.
❤👍🙏🇫🇷
❤🙏🙏🙏❤️🇺🇸
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Same here. It's a very scary place to be.
Excellent job. Love the mower.
The way he spoke with such love for his wife, truly broke my heart. You’re an absolute gem for helping him Sean, and so truly kind of the neighbour to help with future maintenance of the yard. Ya’ll are a true blessing.
Of all the channels I watch on UA-cam, I have to say your yard work is the best combination of all of the transformative content makers because you clean up and remove the things you cut, not just cut things down. The trash removal and then fixing things is the sugar on top. It is sooooo satisfying! I love watching you catch your small mistakes and call yourself out on it so humbly, because your attention to detail is incredible. Watching you help this man, I was so moved! If I could click like on this video a million times I would🥰!
I agree❤
*This comment summarizes exactly what I was thinking...an I love the drone coverage to show the fullness of his magnificence*
True
I had to stop @51:35, to acknowledge you for being a true gift to humanity. Many of your projects have seniors living on the premises, and to both see and hear of their true appreciation for your hard work is something special. Thank You, for all you do!
I lost my husband that same year so i feel exactly what John feels. Grief hits in waves every day and then the tsunami hits at night. Im so happy you did this for him...even a healthy older person has trouble keeping up with it all. Please look in on him every now and then. It will bring him such joy.
This is my favorite one!! The city was pleased, the helpful neighbor was overwhelmed and the homeowner’s spirits were lifted. AMAZING
All I wanted to do was watch an inspirational yard transformation and ended up crying. Who would’ve thunk mowing a yard could be so meaningful. Thank you Sean for loving your neighbor
I couldn’t stop crying. Love thy neighbor ❤
me too. very inspirational and emotional. what a wonderful person Sean is. Cleaned his yard, and gave him emotional support and care.
You were where you needed to be at the time he needed you. God bless you and all you do,making a difference.
A man who cuts the lawn of a disabled individual for free exemplifies a profound form of nobility, demonstrating that true greatness lies not in grand gestures, but in the quiet, selfless acts of kindness.
THAT SOUNDS LIKE A PROVERB FROM THE HOLY BIBLE!! SUCH A BEAUTIFUL COMMENT, BROT TEARS TO MY EYES. IN THESE TIMES THERE IS SO MUCH TO BE CONCERNED ABOUT, BUT HELPING OTHERS IS THE KEY!! I DID ELDERLY CARE 12 YRS, CNA, & IT CHANGED MY LIFE, FORMERLY A SECRETARY BANKING 31 YRS, BANKS SOLD . I LOVE WATCHING THIS MAN HELPOTHERS!!❤😂GRMA MAN 83.THANK YOU!!
Wow
I think you are one of the most caring men I've ever seen. God Bless you for your hard, and exemplary work. You are a real testament of Charity. Love your videos ❤😊 John was a perfect candidate for this weeks blessing. 😇
Let this be yet another testiment that there are Angels among us🕉
You are an extraordinarily kind person. You make the world a better place every week!
OMG his story is moving, prayers sent up for his healing.
At the end of this video John told you he needed you, and he was right, all these people and properties needed your help. You are doing such good work in your community and we need more people like you in this crazy upside down world. I always believed in paying it forward and look how far your channel has come since the beginning. Just remember to take care of yourself because that was alot of work done in 2 days.
I love that you do small repairs that restore order and aesthetics and not just cut grass. I love it when you cut weed trees away from houses and fences. Way to go Midlife Stockman.
I think this one was extra special. This was an all hands on deck situation, so shout out to Sean's family for all the sacrifices they make to by giving up dad for the weekend to help out this man out.
What a wonderful man you are for helping this gentleman. You are so generous with your time to help people in need. And you such a great and thorough job at that. His property looks amazing!!!🙂❤️👍✌️
Your love of neighbor is exemplary! The joy of helping in your heart is infectious!
When John's voice broke up and he started crying, I lost it crying, too. God bless him and God bless you Sean for being a ray of hope for John. Praying for a complete healing for him physically and emotionally. Thank you for easing his mind and giving him a pleasant yard to look out on.
This world needs more people like you! That poor man needed help and god sent you. Thank you for being so kind and helpful.
Amen! He perked up so much!
Thank you for helping the elderly man. He was so grateful. God bless for what you do .🤩
This had me in tears. You never know what someone is going through in life. You have made such an impact in his life by just caring enough to do this act of kindness. I believe he is going to be more active, sit outside and hopefully begin to enjoy life once again. You are an amazing human 🤗❤️
I’m crying watching this gentleman’s appreciation and listening to his grief. You have surely made a difference in his and many others lives. Thank you and thank you to your family for supporting you doing this. I’m proud to know you through your channel and will continue to watch and appreciate all you do. God Bless ❤
Oh my goodness, I had tears in my eyes when he started crying. Thank you so much for finding John, Sean. You were meant to be there at that time for John. I'm sure he was overwhelmed with gratitude. You gave him back his dignity as he was so ashamed of his yard. He does not look like a well man and my heart goes out to him.❤
This is the third video of your work I have watched this evening. I don't typically watch videos that I have no interest in but I did tonight. All I can say is you are an amazing human being. If only more people were like you. I get great personal satisfaction from helping neighbors out when needed but I have never gone to the great lengths you have. Keep up the great work you do.
Best interaction with a homeowner. Do you know, not only did you give him the best gift ever restoring his yard and fixed his roof area but you put a giddy up in his step to be able to get him outside and walk around. I just found your channel and if this transformation is any indication of your work ethics & kindness towards others, then I for sure will not be disappointed. Thank you Sean what a wonderful thing you're doing. 👍
So glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for being here.
You could see how his spirits and energy level increased when he saw all that you had accomplished. And a new hope prevailed for him. Just having someone to touch and talk with him and to hear that his neighbor cared enough to help too meant so much to this lonely, isolated old gentleman. You are truly God's servant. Bless you and your family and the neighbor also.
I say this every week, but this is my favorite transformation. John was so appreciative. It made me cry when he was talking about his wife. You sir, are truly the best. Such a heartfelt video. Bravo Sean 👏🏻👏🏻
Very nice job! Was truly overgrown. Both sidewalks now accessible to him once again. Was nice to hear his neighbor had been helping before receiving stints. ♥️👍
Man, I get so excited about seeing your post weekly. Such a hardworker and dedicated to be a blessing to everyone you help. Keep doing kingdom work.
I own a senior care business. I go into homes to help seniors with daily tasks. The appreciation from these older folks is unmatched. When I retire next year, I'm gonna continue the work for free. Thank u for doing this hard work.
You did it PERFECTLY DONE!
Thank you for caring.
You rock!
The gentleman needed that and fortunately you were the perfect person who came along to his rescue. Well deserving. Such a great job.
Changing lives one lawn at a time ❤
Bless his heart .I am 60 yrs old and people forget you exist when you age , my children only come for maybe an hour or two each month ,They have such busy lives in their work and children ,People find hasty ways to avoid conversation ,its tough being alone and elderly ,Anyway ,you made his day simply standing there allowing him to vent ,Ty for that
Your lucky your kids come by at all . Mine only live 45 minutes away and can't be bothered. Nor phone calls. Count those blessings, don't count on any help. This is an exception.
You use your side piece like a cowboy in the old westerns. I love it.
Thank you for being so kind, loving,and understanding in all the situations that you encounter.
I wish that there was more people like you in the world.
May God continue to bless and keep you.
Love all your videos.
Take care
Be safe
You are such an amazing person, Sean. Even after all that you did and as tired as you were, he asked for more and you didn't even hesitate. God Bless you! I am so grateful for you.
@43:00: "Don't worry, I still love this." That's Priceless, Sean. My teary moment was when you listened to him talk about his wife. You didn't rush him; you heard. Your kindness abounds.
Thank you so much for all you do to help people. You work so hard and go beyond what most other free lawn services do. Your love, compassion and passion comes through in each video. It blesses my heart every time I watch your videos. You always have the best and happiest attitude and its infectious. I know that you are being greatly blessed and that you are one of God's favorites! 😊
A million “Thank yous” for helping our elderly!!
I literally started tearing up before you even started working. I appreciate you Sean. We all do.
Your treat for doing yard work for older people . Thank you!
Amazing! You did more for him than a yard makeover. You gave him motivation and love. And now neighbors will be inspired to help each other out.
You don’t get enough credit for how brilliantly shot, edited, well thought out, technically superb and hyper engaging your vids are. Absolutely thrilling to watch. Appreciate the tiny details !!!
Thank you for this comment. I spend a lot of time making this content as engaging as I can for you all!
@@MidlifeStockman And it's outstanding 👏🏻👏🏻💖
Agreed!!
Yes I definitely appreciate the work that goes on behind the scenes…..just the editing of the videos takes a lot of time
@MidlifeStockman It is REALLY good!
❤ beautiful interaction with John and all of his neighbors that stopped by. I hope they continue to check up on him.
Always blow their doors or storm doors off when there's that much dirt blowing. Thank you for helping him. You're a great young man
WOW! Sean you gave John back his dignity with your kindness and restoring his yard. That was an incredible transformation. Thank you! 🌲💚
Thank you for caring for John. Not just his yard, but HIM. You listened. You provided support. You thought about his safety, and his situation with compassion. You worked with his neighbor to arrange follow up care. You agreed to follow up on his facia board repair. You cared for John. Thank you for loving your neighbor so well. ❤
❤
Grief, loneliness and depression is evident. One never knows what people are dealing with and it surely pays to be kind and be of service. You made this man’s day, week and month. He needs to be have friendships to keep him healthy. Senior centers are good for that I hope he finds more kind people.
Thank you it was heart warming to see this exchange.
Sometimes folks don't want to be lifted out of their familiar surroundings but do appreciate a hand with the garden...
Thank you for giving the old man a fresh start, not only by cleaning his yards, and also by giving him the moral support he need. You are a blessing in disguise to him. God bless you!
Sean ! You’ve done it again , the ease you’ve brought John in his physical ,mental & emotional recovery is tremendous .. plus you inspired neighbours and that’s awesome !
Sean, i do believe you just gave John the desire to begin living again! YOU ARE AN ANGEL!! Man, you make a body want to cry!
that was a labor of love, he needed someone like u I his life to help him out,u go beyond by cleaning and fixing gutters! wow, wat a blessing for him....great job
You are truly a genuine neighbour!bless you!
God Bless YOU Im 85 and watch you on my laptop you are Godsent❤,
That's what I'm talking about ❣ As I get into my late 60's I feel for the elderly. They already feel more isolated. When they have no one to call and help them or are to embarrassed to reach out...the community should be watching to help step in. It's in Jushua....❤ You Sir are amazing ❣ Today you brought me to tears
It's truly amazing how uplifting it can be when an act of kindness like this takes place in one's life. Rejuvenating! Talk about blazing a trail! You are poetry in motion! Can you hear the lawn breathe a sigh of relief?
Hopefully, there is a house cleaning angel in your area to help with the interior.
So glad you are helping others that are actually having a hard time..💯
Prayers for the guy to start getting out and about🙏
That walkway was super satisfying to watch
Mack - boy I've heard a lot about you!! Your subscribers have been loving on me big time these last few days. Thank you for the shoutout. I LOVE your channel. I appreciate you my man. Thanks for doing what you do!
This is possibly the best makeover you have done, a lot of work yes, messy, awkward, difficult and so much of it, but what a joy to see the appreciation of the householder John, and kudos to you for tackling it; as I am sure there were many easier jobs to be found instead, should you have wished to. You are certainly a hero within your communities in my humble opinion.
I lost my bride 7 years ago, I understand fully how John feels. It's a slow process getting over the loss of a loved one. The yard looks awesome, I'm so thankful that folks like you still exist and are willing to help those who are less fortunate.
From UK: I remember the 'impression' of America from 6ts TV... the days when the paper youth would cycle by and throw an issue on to the doorstep, sort of thing, I thought this was how folks over there looked out for each other, b b before the weeds began to creep willy nilly and the sparkle began to dull 😢. Good on Sean for your selfless helping hands. 😊
That man will recover quickly when he sees his yard. 🎉🎉🎉
What you did for John was simply to give him a fresh start, a reason to move, to show interest and to likely live beyond being a hermit! You likely saved his life. You are and should be recognized as a savior. God bless.
The break in his voice at the beginning. This man has needed someone to share the burdens of his life, and to help him for a long time! Thank you for being that someone Sean! I wish I could help your work more.
This one is my favorite! I know someone just like John that lost their way after their wife passed away. Thank you for giving him the boost he needed to feel better about his home and hopefully give him the boost to get himself back out there. Kudos to the neighbor who stepped up to try to help John maintain the lawn now that you have it cleared. Sounds like he had health issues of his own but was still willing to give what he could. Thanks for doing this for John. You were right where you needed to be.
I hope the neighbors help him out now that the hard part is done ❤kudos to you I watch all you guys in full as I am not well to do and I was told by liking and watching in full I am in a way supporting you guys xoxo you guys rock for real
May your health and strength multiply as you help the helpless ❤
Your community is so lucky to have someone like you with such a huge heart. Love your work, keep it up.
You are a Godsend. You can tell how appreciative this man was of your work.
Great hurricane watch. No electricity, high water, high wind and Midlife Stockman. What a great Monday.
I started mowing our community ballpark 27 years ago,for free, several neighbors started helping, we still mow it every week.
Makes me feel good to see it neet and mowed.
I am 81. This made me cry (happy tears).
You gave this man renewed strength and to come out and live again. GOD BLESS YOU SIR!😊
Sean, this one almost made me cry. You are a special kind of a man. So kind, so giving, so compassionate. Thank you for helping out everyone but especially this frail elderly man. I bet this gave him a new spark of life. God bless you!😊
What an amazing and awesome way to give back to your community. May God bless you.
Thank you, Sean! Cleaning that yard, not only you made it look nice, but it is safer for him to walk around. It was very nice of the neighbor to offer to keep the yard clean in the future. (I'm a cry old baby, so i had to use more than one tissue to wipe my tears. 😊) Take care of yourself, dear heart. May God continue blessing you and your whole family.
This world needs more people like you. Your kindness is unmeasurable. ❤😊❤
Even though you said you're set for equipment I just bought you a coffee. Thanks so very much for all you do.
Its my honor to do it. Man, you hit it out of the park. You are doing what neighbors used to do for each other. Please continue to post these examples of your helping the community. Blessings on you.
Good morning everyone Happy Monday!!!🌞 Sean, I just want to say God broke the mold when he created you. You are a spectacular human being. This segment broke my heart today. You showed up and showed out. Please continue to check up on this senior. I think his name is John. I can't imagine what the inside looks like. He really needs help. Maybe you could try and get him some assistance with home care assistance. You are truly a man of God. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart!! Peace and Blessings to you and your family! Blessings on top of Blessings!!!
Your kindness to this man may be all it takes to start the road to healing after the loss of his wife. Awesome transformation.
Yes, we never know how much one simple kindness can affect someone.
I literally have had tears in my eyes throughout this transformation. Sean you have changed this mans life. This looks amazing.
You sir are a wonderful human being. You cleaning this man's property also seemed to help heal his heart. God bless you in everything you do. Thank you for also making my day with your kindness and hard work.
. Marvelous job, it was so nice watching you do this yard, you are always so positive with your comments and when talking to the owners and those who pass by. God bless you and you take care of yourself.
You deserve a medal.
Well, you finally reduced me to tears this time. My husband died in 2018. I know exactly how he feels. It’s lovely and wonderful that what you did had John talking and energized when you finished. Kindness is an amazing tonic. Bless you
Man you make me smile. This is what we are born for, to be kind, do good and for nothing in return. You’re my kind of people xx
6 bags...My husband died 10 years ago & if I talk about him I cry....God Bless Him
I loved how he asked the neighbor and he encouraged him to do it. That's a kind soul
