Found this while in the hospital getting treated for relapsed leukemia. I hope I can find this video again someday when I’m finally healthy. I never thought I would have to go through this again
i’m so sorry to hear you’re going through this. it must be incredibly tough to face leukemia again, but i’m sending all my positive energy your way for a strong recovery. hoping to hear back from you when you're healthy and well. lots of love and strength to you.
I love these checkpoints, you never search for them. They show up on their own. The last time I was on a checkpoint, I was in a very rough spot in my life. It’s much better now. I’m proud of how far I’ve come and I hope you are too, fellow adventurer. Don’t overwork yourself and don’t overthink things, life moves on. the next thing you know you’re somewhere you never thought you would be. Everything will be fine, I promise you. Have a blessed day, week and year. God speed.
youtube checkpoints like these are what help us connect as a community, truly. no drama over celebrities, no arguments, just pure connection and support. just wanted to say, if any of you feel like youre alone in this world, youre not. this stranger on the internet loves every single one of you :) /p (edit: I CANT REPLY TO EVERYONE HERE BUT THANK YOU FOR THE LOVE, I LOVE YOU ALL TOO!!!!)
yeah just wait till that one fatherless prick finds this video and decides to tell everyone in the comment section that their issues dont matter and they're corny for sharing it Humanity is beautiful until the ugly ppl show up, hope the weirdos dont show up
I passed all of my exams today. I made new friends and I'm slowly healing. my soul is healing, and I can feel that. thank you so much. I really needed this.
I made a new friend yesterday after months of isolation. It felt like a breath of fresh air and I think I felt happier yesterday than I have in a long time.
Honestly, i'm just afraid to talk to someone or make new friends. Feel like they will all eventually abandon me like all my friends did in the past. maybe there is something fundamentally wrong with me that's y everyone leaves me.
@@sankalpadas7888 we are all flawed humans, we will meet and seperate from many people in this life. As someone who has lost many people myself please take my advice: Don't let the things or people you've lost rob you of experiencing the gift of something new. instead treasure the good from those experiences and learn from the bad. God created you and me, he created all of us to be social creatures, please don't isolate yourself because of your fears or past experiences, instead go through your fears and work on them, talk to God when you want and invite him to help mend anything that is broken within you, he truly knows what's best for each and everyone of us. Jesus loves you friend and you matter more than you will ever understand.
I’m in my grandpa’s backyard, introducing him to my nephew for the first and last time. We take a picture together, in front of the small, long-unused and faded treehouse. There’s the sound of people playing in the public pool on the other side of the fence. I can’t go back to that place and time but I’m glad that it happened.
My dads getting surgery tomorrow for his cancer. Apparently its a really complicated operqtion and he may not make it so i really needed this. Im so glae for most of ur stories in the comments and so sorry for the other half. Stay safe yall
On the morning of Halloween, my aunt suddenly collapsed from a brain aneurysm, and went into cardiac arrest. For a week the whole family has spent turns visiting her, but despite medical intervention the doctors informed us that the damage was too severe, and she was brain dead. Today we said our goodbyes, and they will be turning off her life support. Thank you for this song. It’s exactly what I needed right now, and I can only hope that wherever my aunt is, it’s as peaceful as this. We all miss you, Julie. You were loved dearly, and still are.
Firstly, I would just like to say that I am so sorry for your loss. Secondly, I had a similar thing happen a few years ago. My aunt (also named Julie) got diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor. I'm so sure that both Julie's are in a better place and I hope you and the rest of your family can heal from this ❤
lying in my dorm room, completely overwhelmed by both my daily life and the happenings of the world around me... thank you for this moment of peace. it made me feel like i was ten years in the future, looking back on now-me and telling them they made it.
I wish I could go back to me in college laying awake in my dorm room. I, too, had so many insecurities and doubts. I made it, I’m happier and healthier than I ever was, and it was so, so worth. Also, please don’t stress unnecessarily. If you can avoid it. Things will work out. You are loved, and you are going to make it, and I’m so proud of you.
I remember that exact feeling, a few years ago i would just lay on the floor of my dorm, feeling overwhelmed and wanting to die… but things are getting better and I’m glad I’m still here. Things will get better for you too, just remember to keep breathing 🫂
this comment section feels like a total safe space, even when we’re all strangers. i’ve read some stories, im proud of you for healing, or trying to heal. it’s a tough process, but you got this. i believe in you
I needed this because it made me realize how far I’ve come. My wife and I brought our beautiful baby girl home today, and I’ve realized that I am now more rich than ever before. I have so many supporters, and a lovely family that I love with all my heart despite having serious trouble with my own emotions. I spent so long not being able to feel a thing, yet now my heart is so full of love and joy that it feels strangely foreign. Life will always get better, you just have to believe in yourself enough to make it past the limitations you’ve either set for yourself or the limitations others have placed upon you. Even though it’s 3am and I am currently dealing with a fussy little girl, I can confidently say that I have overcome my past and am making true strides towards a better future for myself and my wonderful family. I love you all. You will make it. If you can’t believe in yourself, then let me. You are noticed, and you are not alone.
From someone who's lived it twice- you've got a long journey ahead, it will be tough at times, especially being awake all night over and over again for several years, make sure to look after yourself (and your wife, make sure you both give each other a break now and then) and it is all worth it in the end. No idea why this vid popped up, guess it's just time.
Didn't know what this would be, so I clicked it to find out. Found so many people celebrating and mourning and reflecting on their lives, and it reminded me so late in the middle of the night, at least for me, that there's so many people out there, going through their own lives. Hope to see all of you again soon, in these passing moments.
Trying my best lately to remember this, we're all going through complicated things and all living equally complex lives. We should all be kinder and more understanding with each other, as much as we can at least.
had an embarrassing panic attack last night at a concert in front of a stranger who showed me photos of her cat to calm me down. i don’t even know your name but thank you, this reminds me of you
My Dr. taught me to find an object and concentrate. I was afraid to even walk into a target. But he told me to walk in and not think about me having a panic attack. He then told me to walk in and find things to touch if I have thoughts of freaking out. So far I now can walk into any store. If I’m standing in a long line or stuck in traffic is a struggle.
10/30/24 I can’t remember my last checkpoint. I think I avoided them because I didn’t feel like it was the time. But now is good. I did it. I worked hard and I’m happy. I have the things I want. I have loved and been loved. I smile more than ever. I hope for the same from now on and that is good.
I finally have a stable and supportive group of friends that I’ve lacked for most of my life, and this video sounds like the memories I could of had with them if I had just met them sooner.
I love the fact that everyone's talking about what happened to them and what's going on. It's making me cry. Everyone experienced today differently, and it's so beautiful.
I'm currently half-asleep, laying next to the love of my life (who is snoring reaaaaaaal hard rn) .. we occasionally twitch or move and wake each other up by accident.. but then we exchange a few jokes and then fall back to sleep. Life is good. But I also suffered from bad anxiety attacks today, thanks to a nasty disorder I've had for over half my life. It felt so so big and consuming at the time. Now? Not so much. Sometimes a bad day doesn't have to stay bad. Sometimes you can get through the shitty feeling and reach the part where you couldn't be more at peace. Sometimes a day can be both. Even I forget that. So I'm going to leave this here as a reminder.. to me or you reading this. Things can improve. In the simplest of ways.
Sound like me and my SO, I wish you guys the best. I always want to do the most for her because she deserves it, but sometimes it feels like too much for me to handle. But she knows and supports me as much as I lift her up. I love every second with her and it may be rough sometimes when we have to work through her anxiety and her panic attacks but that’s why I’m here. I’m her pillars of Hercules. Thank you for sharing your story and allowing me too as well
"Sometimes a bad day doesn't have to stay bad" is so true. We often get used to the suffering we had in the past and don't even realize we can outgrow it and it doesn't always have to be like that. We can get better and we don't need a permission for that, we deserve it.
We can appreciate the point of this but come on man, life is bullshit for many others, regardless of mindset, outlook, etc. Sometimes, life just sucks and you embrace the suck.
as a content creator, i am absolutely mesmerized and fully moved by the sheer amount of good will projected through this artpiece. i wish everyone who appreciated this stamp in the youtube ether will have a safe and happy life, especially the creator.
11/07/2024 - it’s been a hard few months. My best friend in the world, the best dog on this planet, passed away two months ago and I still can’t deal with it. I recently went to the ER and my partner, two weeks later, nearly went in as well. My friends are struggling with family and financial issues and the election just passed. It’s rough. I’m tired. But this grounded me, even if just for a few minutes. A gentle reminder to be happy with what I have, to cherish it and to live in spite of it all. Thank you for that reminder. We all need one, once in awhile. A reminder to live and to love and to stay grounded for those around us. Thank you.
I am so sorry for your loss. Losing a friend sounds devastating, and losing a furry family member hurts. I will keep you in my mind and heart. Whether you believe in God or not, I would love to pray for you for peace for your soul. So, may I pray for you?
My wife suffers from Endometriosis and is in constant chronic pain. Tonight I am lying next to her in bed and she has fallen asleep first which never happens. She looks so peaceful and rested when the pain isn't keeping her awake and weighing down on her and dictating how she lives her life. Seeing her like this, I can't wait for the day she beats endo and is no longer in pain This video found me in this moment as I lay awake thinking about all of this, so thank you
Not my wife but my best friend/basically domestic partner also has Endo and a list of other pain conditions. I know exactly the look you're describing 💜 she has seizures so when her husband is away for work I facetime her and basically watch her sleep. Don't do it much anymore, her husband changed jobs and she has a service dog now who wakes her up when he smells a seizure coming.
“read everyone’s comments and trying not to cry” challenge. lol seeing everyone be so supportive to strangers makes me happy I’m still here. there’s good in the world, and there’s love to witness. i usually just observe and exit videos without leaving a trace… but to any and everyone that reads this, coming from a girl that has been to hell and back, and still has her fair share of bad days: don’t leave before the end of the movie, you’ll miss all the best parts. stay here a little longer. take a deep breath, and know that you are not alone.
Just found this. Life is pretty good right now. I’m stressed and anxious, but I’m graduating with a bachelor’s degree in May, I’m surrounded by friends and loved ones, and I have a long term partner whom I love dearly… I don’t think I would’ve seen myself in this spot a year ago. It’s going to be okay. It does get better. Take a deep breath. Take it a day at a time. I love you. ♥️
Thanks for this, 26/10/2024 I hope that whoever finds this a couple of years in the future reminds me of this. Because even if you are seeing it, you are going to forget it.
I don’t see how you see a correlation between them feeling certain emotions whilst listening to this and them managing irl issue. From you’re tone, it sounds like you think that they can’t manage problems because they cried at this, which is stupid. Some people are more prone to cry than others. You sound like one of those people who thinks that crying is a sign of weakness, but I digress since the others will reply to you, so argue with ‘em.
@@JauntyWhale crying doesn’t make someone weak - it’s just part of being human. sometimes the simplest things, like music, can tap into emotions we didn’t even realize we were holding onto. maybe it brings up feelings of loss, guilt, or something deeply personal. everyone has their own battles and ways of dealing with them, and emotions aren’t always logical. what might seem small to one person can carry a lot of weight for someone else. it’s important to respect that.
I quit drinking. I’m not an alcoholic, but I feel pretty convicted about this. Haven’t had anything since two weeks ago, and it feels like I lost a headache I’ve never noticed before. Everything is a little brighter, and life feels just a little better
[22/11/24] I dont comment often, but here i am. I was feeling lonely and depressed from past week, and thought this video is just a clickbait but turned out to be a wholesome comment section, it really found me, thanks algorithm! it made me smile.
My mother just recently passed away this Tuesday. She was recovering from a brain aneurysm for around two months, but health complications soon occurred: pulmonary embolisms and stroke, to be specific. She was put on hospice around a week before she passed, and I never got to truly say goodbye. Losing her was always a huge fear of mine, but I never thought I’d have to go through it this young in life. I’m only fourteen, I shouldn’t be burying her. It has been two days since my father broke the news to me, and I found this video. It reminded me that she wouldn’t want me to stop living my life just because she lost hers. She’d want me to keep fighting and doing what I love, and that’s what I plan on doing. She’d want me to pursue my dream career and go to my dream college. I truly hope this video comes back around one day, whether it be when I finally find peace or even when I graduate in the next few years.
i'm so sorry for your loss, we are never really prepared to saying goodbye. I really hope you ca come around and enjoy life as your mother would want for you. Take a lot of care, and I wish you always the best
Sorry you've lost her. It's a fear of mine too. I'm glad you're determined to live your best life. You'll make her proud. ♡ I hope you will find happiness in all the wonderful things you have done and will do, the amazing places you have seen and will one day explore, the extraordinary experiences stored away in your memory and the ones that lie, waiting, still in front of you.
I'm falling into a pretty bad depression again. This is the first time I've actually worded the situation like it is. I really hope I find the strength to be good for my close ones, life has really been testing me and I've started to isolate myself from others. I just try to keep reminding myself of the times I have gotten through before, how even though it felt like the end of the world back then, I'm still here now and that it did get better. Even though it's bad again, it will get better again as well. I just have to give myself mercy and trust that this too shall pass
your not alone. never. be safe partner. seasons change, and with seasons we change. but dont be afraid of whats coming. cheer for it. greet it with open arms. life is hard so that the beauty is even more valuable. be safe now
This feels like swimming with my younger sslf, telling her that im no longer afraid of water and am stronger now, i love swimming and do it when i can. She'd be so happy to hear. I can help her tread the water now. She doesn't have to know all the bad things. She doesn't have to know she wont swim for months due to cysts on her body. She doesn't have to know her alcoholic father becomes worse. She doesn't have to know she'll fail her vision test and her blindness is worse than she thought. She doesn't have to be insecure. She can float. She doesn't have to know how deep that pool is. She can just swim. Thank you for this. I'm not sure why but i feel like crying when i hear this. I needed a moment of reflection and nostalgia. I hope whoever sees this is alright and staying strong. Things are bad a lot, but without bad we wouldn't be able to enjoy the good. I hope you can find some peace. Please stay safe. Theres always somebody that cares. It might even be your future self. Live for them. Take a swim. :) ❤
Swimming helped me get out of a depression.....make sure you eat well to nourish your body, get enough sleep to re-charge your energy. You will find something that brings you out of the way you are feeling 💕
I'm sitting with brother in hospital while he holds his little baby girl in his hands. He's been through alot and it feels really good to see the joy on his face when he looks at the child.
It's 2 in the morning. I haven't been able to sleep yet and this video popped out of the blue. I don't know what to say. I didn't intend on commenting, but reading the comments under this inspires me to leave a piece of myself here. Dear stranger, whatever it is going on in your life, please know that you're not alone. You are loved in so many ways you'll never know of. You are looked out for in this beautiful world. You are not alone. I love you. I love people coming together like this in a UA-cam video's comments section, man. I love humans. We are so beautiful. Love every single one of you all. Thank you for making this world a better place.
3am here. I keep moving forward, because I keep telling myself that it has to get better at some point. Thank you, friend. May your burdens be light and your path be gentle.
Hey everyone, I hope you're all doing well. I wanted to share a gentle suggestion that might help improve your sleep. Consider trying the 3-2-1 rule: stop eating about 3 hours before bedtime, limit your water intake 2 hours before, and avoid screens like computers, TVs, and phones for 1 hour before sleep. It can also be helpful to steer clear of caffeine if you're less than 7 hours away from going to bed. I know how challenging it can be to wind down, but taking these small steps may really make a difference in how well you rest. Take care!
2 am here, far from my home country and having never ending problems. You don’t know how your comment helps me right now 🥲 Sending love to everyone facing difficulties, you’ll make it through ! 🫶🏼
Just got back from an amazing hangout with my boyfriend. We walked, talked and joked for hours. My legs hurt but he was worth every moment. I love him, this tune reminds me of his soul. Thank you.
Girl me too I'm so in love with my boyfriend I'm dying every second with him is so precious I would spend every last one sitting with him talking and being with him it's absolutely consumed me on every level
Relatable. When everyone else is asleep or not home is when im happiest because i cant be screamed at for everything and dont have to listen to them scream at each other.
Dealing with the loss of my love. Still in the process of healing, but I'm patient and I'm fine with the journey. We were deeply in love and I wish for everyone to find what I had and keep it. I love the positivity and the check point/rest spot, thank you for this moment of peace. :)
If you're reading this, hold onto what hope you have in your heart. The sun will rise and you will have a new day to try again. It can be hard to find the strength to keep going, but I know you can do it. There's an army of strangers here rooting for your success. Sending much love to whoever needs it. 💙
Two days ago my 7 year old dog went over the rainbow bridge. He was relatively young, but the illness was too strong. We did our best, vets did their best, but it was too much for him. I hope he forgave me for everything that I could’ve ever done wrong to him. But I believe that he was happy to spend his life with us.
we aren’t perfect, but we are to them ❤ it sounds like you did whatever you could for him and that’s all that matters, aside from loving him. and it’s clear you did that too. i hope you can find peace and heal soon ❤
i’m so sorry to hear about ur dog. i’m sure he felt the love u gave him. he was lucky to have u, and i hope u can find some peace knowing he had a happy life with u. sending u strength during this time
My dog, Igor, also left me a few days ago. I was a wreck. It happened in one of the worst times of my life, one in which I really needed him and now I have to learn to live without his physical presence. I know the love these tiny creatures gave us will forever live in our hearts but it's hard to accept that we don't get to have more than that. We gave them love and that's what they're gonna remember forever, just like us. Sending love❤
This is one of the most wholesome comment sections I’ve ever seen. To everyone doing well here, I’m very happy for you, and to everyone struggling right now, just know things will get better. Wishing success and the best of luck to everyone here!
I have gone 47 days without self harm today. Im so very proud of myself for making it this far, things are going much better now. Thank you for this. Edit- I didn't realize so many people were going through the same thing as me. I have read all of your comments and i about cried- Thank you so so much for caring about me. (Day 48!!)
Heyyyy!!!! I'm so proud of youuu.... So inspired by you, like u r so strong. I really admire ur efforts and courage. Dear stranger, it's really good to have u here:))
Recently hit the age I thought I wouldn’t make it to as a kid. I was so set on it that I even marked it on my calendar as “final” hoping if my parents saw it on accident they would just think it was for school. Thankfully, I’m on medication, I’m recovering from months of being alone during my middle school years and years of trauma I’ve built up with the help of my friends and my mom. Times where I get past my initial expectations make me regret ever doubting myself in the first place. Human life is wonderful, painful, and sometimes confusing; yet somehow, we get through it. To those reading, thank you for making it. Thank you for living another day. Thank you for being strong enough to breathe another breath. And to those who have lost others: I’m sorry that they had to suffer, but at least they held out as long as they had with all the turmoil inside them. I don’t care if you are a total stranger on the internet. I love you. And you are so so valuable and worth every interaction, every conversation, and every breath. Keep fighting, even when all hope is lost.
Having endured trials of hardship and faith, I sit here among gentle souls and feel hopeful for this world. There is still beauty in this world, and I know it is not time to give up. I will see it through because it is correct, I will take the harder road because it is noble. And I will remain loyal and steadfast because it is an honor to serve you.
I woke up today to messages that put nothing but anxiety and fear into me. I was beyond scared that I had lost someone that I loved and cared for so deeply that I spent 2 hours curled up in bed, hoping they were okay. I went to take a shower, anxious and hysterical. Yet some feeling of warmth came over me, a gentle hand on my head to keep my thoughts still. Then, when I sat down and opened youtube, this was the first thing I saw. So here I am, crying over a sound. Not because I'm scared, but because something in me knows that I need this moment to just break. I need to break to be remade even stronger, because I know it's okay to break, to cry, to feel. So even as I may be a sniffling, sobbing mess, this is to you who is reading this, who may need this more than maybe I do in this moment in time: You'll be okay. And if you're not now, that's okay. It's okay to not be okay. 3 deep breaths, start there. Inhale, exhale. Inhale, exhale. Inhale, exhale. It'll be okay. We'll get through this together, we who do not know each other, but we who will stand together regardless. Spiritual brothers and sisters at arms, we will get through this. After all, if you haven't gotten through life up to this point, you wouldn't be reading this, would you?
@@jptheboat Anything is possible, sobbing or not. Just remember, even if you break in this moment, you're never broken. You've got this, I believe in you.
I've recently had to face a reminder of how stupidly cruel life can be, 1 single moment that recently occurred tossing a community into the gutters of hell. Emotionally I'm broken. But nobody else seems to understand or show it, so I hide it from them... but the thoughts of fear and wondering what others are going through... to anyone who understands. I'm sorry. Truly sorry for the loss.
To anyone reading this, I am so so proud of you. For everything. For everything you’ve overcame and everything you have ever done. You are a walking star. You are amazing! I hope you know that. Even though I am a stranger, I deeply love you all. Keep going dears. You have got this. ❤️
It’s 11:53 AM, November 10, 2024, and i needed this. I’ve been struggling for as long as i can remember, but it’s been about 4 long years of feeling depressed. I actually have a trip and a concert im looking forward to in about a week, and im excited. I just hope i can live a long life. ❤❤
Live on, stay strong my friend. There are people in this world who love you, and, if not already, people who depend on you for more than just finances or anything else like that.
You are the man, Braden, you. are. the. man. I too list the exact time and date as a way of grounding myself when it all gets to be too much. We’re in this together, you and I.
I found this while struggling with anxiety and depression, it hadn’t been this bad in years. Some days the only thing I can do is just get out of bed and survive. I’ve forgotten what actually living feels like anymore. And I’m very scared. I have to be strong for everyone else. My mom, my little brother, my friends. But I’m so tired. I know that until death, every defeat is psychological. And I’m not going to stop fighting. There has to be a light at the end of the tunnel. I believe in all of you.
Something my cousin (who is probably one of the toughest people I know, highly intelligent, hardcore military, struggled with depression all his life) said to me when I discussed feeling suicidal with him, he told me “every day you’ve made it, you’ve won.”
you're stronger than you think! The fact you're still here is evidence You will find yourself, it'll take some time, yes, but you'll look back and be glad that you persisted with life Stars shine brightest on the darkest nights
You are not alone know that. You are a beautiful soul here on earth and you deserve to live a happy life. There is always a light at the end of the tunnel. The only way after being in the bottom is UP look for the light in everything and you will find it. Sending you lots of love 💗
I often feel empty in the morning, just repeating the sames gestures like a robot. This morning was one of them. This video gave me a moment of emotion and I feel alive now. Thanks.
Whoever you are reading this, please accept this virtual hug. I don't know you or your struggles, but I know you have them and I know we all need a hug. Life is brutal. It is cruel. But there are people who genuinely care, even if you've never met them. Be safe stranger and with all my heart I hope things improve for you soon
Had a breakdown today, felt like i should just end myself and its hard to deal with those feelings. But a friend helped me thru the night and i feel like there is hope that things get better. Whoever reads this, I wish you everything you want for your life and that all tough times will pay off! ~ Much love from a stranger.
Got this while I’m worrying over whether or not I’ll be able to get through the next 4 years. Hearing this is just reminding me that I’m sitting in a theatre waiting for practice of play to start. I’m still in my budding years. Stay safe people
@@ultimatehusky5481this is a good point but i personally don't like comments like these irl because it feels disgenuine and you're disregarding how this person feels
@@luhmean9922 im??? sorry???? i am one of the ppl at highest risk after this election. i am legitimately terrified for my life. the point of my comment was a reminder that while this whole awful election could be _an_ end, it is not _the_ end. we will survive. we will live; viscerally, beautifully, because that is what life is.
After four years of suffering, mental and physically. I only have a week left. All the pain and torment is over, and now I have a beautiful woman waiting for me back home, my freedom, everything is nearing the end in this dark dark chapter. At many points I considered the void. Things will get better. *dont give up stranger* you got this
No. Dreams stem from life, and life stems from dreams. A dream that came from a part of your life that belongs in the past will seep into the future and keep you from moving forward. It can make you throw your friends and family to the wayside for a goal you may never reach. Respect the balance. Dreams come and go, and to refuse to change or to accept when a dream is harmful will only leave you fighting against a current you can't beat. Flowing like water while remaining yourself is the way to go. Hold onto nothing but kindness. Nothing but life. Unless you are in your Griffith era, of course.
October/27/24 Found another checkpoint, I feel like these things always show up when im the most hopeless and they always give me security even if its just for a few minutes to everyone that sees this video, It will get better and you will get through this. Itll be hard for a while but you will get there I promise
I'm glad the Internet Devs put all these checkpoints before boss fights, even if I haven't needed them so far. Someone may have lost their entire campaign if it weren't for them.
The world is such a poetic place, right now there are people tending to gardens, creating life, getting married, people committing suicide, people losing a loved one, people hurting others, people cheating on their partners. This world has so many pain stakingly harsh contrasts, but in a way it is beautiful. People are being loved right now, people are loving right now. This world may not always be good, but at least we still have good things. I love you
My grandma just passed away. A week ago yesterday. A lot of people in my life are already sick of me talking about it, but its been the only thing I’ve been able to think about since she got to the hospital. It was so sudden. I got no goodbye, I got no left behind notes or letters for me. She was just as much of a parent to me as either of my parents. I grew up in her house, and it will always be home. I miss my home.
You have probably heard this 100 times already, it gets easier, and sometimes it’ll feel like that day again, push through it because, you will feel closer to her again when you’re feeling better. Hope she is watching over you, I lost a grandparent I was close with, and didn’t get the chance to properly say goodbye, I feel for you man. It gets easier
My beautiful cat passed away today. I treasured every single second of our 11 years together. The birds in this video reminded me of when we would sit out in the garden when it was sunny, or when we would stare out of the kitchen window, side by side. I found you in this one, and I’ll find you in the next. See you then, my friend :)
Look mate trust me when I say this, it will get better. I just broke up with my girlfriend but all I can say is that it will get better… eventually. Even if there isn’t a light in the end of the tunnel there will be soon
I’m not going to lie to you at least for me the mental pain is like a scar sometimes it fades completely sometimes only a bit you can reduce it but not always completely remove it and sometimes it’s there to stay or just takes years to fully fade
Hey ik im just a random stranger on the internet, but you’ve gotten through hardship before and you will again, it won’t be ok. It will be more than ok. You are resilient, strong and loved. You make the world a brighter place with it in it. and even if you think you are completely alone, I will be here for you dude. It’s all going to work out soon, just keep pushing foreward ❤️
I confessed to my best friend two days ago and she told me she loves me too. I’ve been really nervous since because we live 3 hours apart and I won’t get the chance to see her again for a little while. We’re planning our first date and I really hope I don’t mess it up. I really needed this moment of serenity.
If you’re ever feel like things are going south just try to talk things out with her, describe how your feeling and be straight forward and try not to overthink things too much, communication is pretty important in a relationship and it’s good to have it early on, I’m sure you’ll do great but thought I’d drop some advice.
I had a panic attack while at a concert the other night because of some bad memories. It was pretty embarrassing sitting in my seat crying while being surrounded by people cheering and dancing. I’ve recently been really overwhelmed and anxious with everything and this sound has made me take a step back and relax for just 2 minutes. Thank you.
My dad passed away a few weeks ago after a short fight to recover from a stroke. This song popped up in my feed randomly yesterday. Upon listening to it, I was sent into tears. It was like he was telling me: “I’m okay now. I’m in a better place now. I’m no longer in pain. Please don’t dwell on my passing as I wish for you to move on with your life and cherish every memory we made together. Move on knowing that I am okay and you will be okay.” Rest easy, dad. I love you❤🕊️
found this at 1 am lying in bed. i’ve had a rough three years and trouble sleeping lately. i guess i needed this. i’m going to try and sleep now. thank you.
i hope u overcome this and have a good sleep. also visit a doctor if possible as improper sleep would lead to many other health issues, both physical and mental.
my dog passed away this year, and every corner of the house seem haunted by her... the pain gets better tho, and the happy memories and feelings remain. Thank you for sharing ♡
It just hit 12 AM for me... I'm eating a small dinner, finished watching half of an anime episode, have two assignments to finish, and feel... a little lonely. It's been three months since I last genuinely hung out with someone I am close to. I remember my best friend and I falling asleep as we talked about our dreams for the future: college major, careers, passionate interests, etc. I told her how I wanted to go upstate with her to walk under green trees, hike hills, and play in the snow. I told her that I am glad she is my best friend. We are still friends, we have been friends for the past 5 years, and we will be friends in the future. God blessed me with her and blessed her with me. There are times I am scared of what the future may bring. However, I believe the future will bring more good experiences we can ever imagine. God bless you all at this checkpoint. You will be okay.
My community was devastated by the hurricane. So many things I loved are changed forever, several of my favorite places gone for good. I feel lucky for being okay and for not having lost anyone, but the survivor's guilt is suffocating. A family member took me away from it all a few days ago for my health. I just got back home and was sitting on the couch all anxious again when I got this in my recommended.
that sounds so heavy to go through. i can’t imagine the mix of relief and guilt u must be feeling. it’s good that u have family there for u, and i hope this piece brought u a little peace. sending strength ur way as u heal and rebuild. stay safe!
Hi friend, i live in wildfire country and have people near to me that lost everything too. Take time to mourn what you lost, it's an important step in rebuilding. There are people here that care so much about you
I sat in a local dumpling shop today, a cup of jasmine tea in hand, just… watching. Listening. Feeling life and the world move around me. A little boy giggling as his mother tried to wipe some broth off his face, an elderly gentleman heartily shook with laughter from something his buddy said, two fresh out of college looking guys cheering their cups of sake for something or other. I felt peace in what feels like years. True peace, almost joyful as the toddler being ushered on a trike by her father outside. It’s fleeting moments that make the most of this journey we all travel
This video found me, and I appreciated its sudden appearance in my recommended feed. Not doing terrible, but not doing as well as I’d like. Thank you for this, stranger. To anyone who sees this: Stay Safe.
@@SickSpaceThank you. The rough patches today are bumps compared to things from my past, so I’m grateful there. May life treat you well, and may you always have people in your corner supporting you. This Dutchman certainly does.
Hey, this is my first ever opening up here about what I'm going through recently. These past few days, I've been alone in my classroom and got no friends 'til I started to skip school due to my unmotivated feeling. And now, I'm back again to restart myself, catch up and remove those negative people in my life. So this is a small reminder to just take a deep breath and start over again, never quit. I don't need them and I don't have to stop myself for them. The God is with me to guide me and love me 💗💗 Thank you for this little checkpoint.
Starting college at 24 after beating a long term illness, going on a date on Wednesday, reconnected with old friends, I'm doing good and this was at the top of my suggested videos
you don't know how much hope that just gave me, i've been struggeling with my health really really hard the last 2,5years and it's getting better right now. thank you i'm wishing you a great life! ♥️♥️
It's 11/03/2024, around 6:25 AM. This was the first video I watched after reloading others multiple times, and it has been so relaxing. I want to sleep again; I've been having more trouble sleeping as the days go on. I've missed my classes and work, but this video hits differently. It's almost at a level I never expected. It resonates with me so much, even though it's so short, just like everyone's lives. This is more than just a video, music, or ambient sound. It's a reminder. Something that people call checkpoints, moments to share stories. So here's mine. My mom's death was unexpected. It happened in the hospital, leaving just me, my brother, and my dad. I didn't grieve like they did. We all had our ways, but as I grew up, it finally hit me hard when I needed her the most. She never showed up, only in memories that felt so real that she appeared in my dreams at times. My dad jokes about her being a ghost or an angel, and so do my brother and I, yet I can never truly feel her presence. I know it's strange to think this way, especially with religious beliefs, but I always believed in many things except what most people believe in America. I visited those places but never felt a connection, and as I'm about to become an adult, I still don't. Sometimes I feel like I never will, and that I won't have that connection with my mom either. I feel guilty, thinking it was my fault, and I never got to tell her that I loved her before she left. I was in shock as a young teen, but once I became older, I finally broke down and cried. I never got to share how I felt about myself, that I wasn't in a good place mentally, and that I should have helped her more around the house. Guilt. Grief. In the end, it doesn't matter since life still moves on and changes. This is what I felt while listening to this video, but in more ways than I can express. I have many more stories beyond this one. This isn't just a piece of media; it’s something I struggle to explain with these limited words. Perhaps, it's how it found me that truly matters. Well, I'm going to rest now. It's currently 6:40 AM. Thank you for listening.
@@Kittienia hey. From what I can tell, you're still young. Not even an adult. I'm 25 now and I feel like I'm still growing as much as I did when I was 19. Life keeps going, but so will you. It'll get better. Take your time. You've got this, and your family and friends will be there along the way. Hugs.
Today I had a meaningful conversation with myself. Unlocked some new achievements. Got a bit stronger. Thank you. And now I'm saying this to you... Hold on to that faith... You will get through it. You will emerge victorious. Hugs.
Found this while I was in a down spiral, glad I found it because it lifted a weight off my shoulders. I hope anybody who reads this has found safety, or gotten better after watching/listening to this video.
I was spiraling yesterday but my mom and my sister dragged me out to a live band and drinks and dinner and in those moments, everything was OK. Its been a while since I've had to live for the moment, one moment at a time, but I've done it before and I'll do it again
its just started to snow where i am and i feel extremely calm in the midst of an anxious period in my life. it’s nice to feel good, even just for now. i’m so proud that even as a group of strangers, we can connect across the world through the comment section of a youtube video. this is nice. i’ve read stories, some sad, some happy, and i hope that whoever sees this will know that things get better, life changes, and you can always find the joy in the things you do. i believe in you. take care and stay safe :]
6/11/24 Was freaking out badly this morning. _Devastating_ news. Finding this has… helped me calm down, some. Distance from the panic. Will be returning tonight, put it on, keep calm.
I found this at a time where I’ve been struggling so much recently with anxiety and panic attacks and just a general struggle. I feel like I can’t thrive within my studies and life and I feel like I’m ridiculed for the way I think because I believe I’m neurodivergent but I’m scared to be diagnosed and be seen as different. But seeing everyone sharing their stories at the same point in time is such a relief and makes me feel so much less alone. I hope everyone is able to find a sense of calm and content at one point and be happy where they are at and who they are. Wishing everyone the best
hello from an internet stranger who was diagnosed with a neurodevelopmental disorder (autism) two or so years ago. i can't say that things in this area have only been positive since then, because internalized ableism is absolutely a struggle, but i've found that my diagnosis has given me more clarity/a better understanding of how i think, allowed me to receive accommodations that have aided my studies, and provided opportunities for me to connect with resources that have helped my symptoms (such as executive skills coaching) and people who have validated my experiences. of course, pursuing diagnosis for any concerns you have is your choice. and while i may not be sure of what access to benefits such as these is like where you live, i can say with certainty that there are people out there who will see you for who you are and empathize with what you’re going through. i'll be rooting for you!
I found this while not really doing anything on my work break. Nothing amazing or terrible has happened lately, but reading all the people sharing their moments of vulnerability, be they good or bad has given me a comfort that I can't describe. Sometimes just a short ambient track can break down barriers in ways that no one really understands. To whoever you are that might be reading this, whatever you're doing and whatever is happening, take a moment to breathe. Reflect on yourself, and remember you were given life for a reason. Even if today sucks, tomorrow will always be there. Even if you feel like you're alone, someone out there is always thinking about you. It can be easy to get dragged down in the tides of life, and get lost in all the noise of today's world, but always remember, people do love you. And you can love other people. They say nothing lasts forever, and that's always true. So make the most of the good in your life, but don't stress if things get bad. It won't last forever, and the sun is always waiting to push away the night. Take care of yourselves, and greet the sun of tomorrow.
this genuinely really grounded me. i closed my eyes, took a deep breath, and realised everything is okay. i’ve been worrying about a life that’s good, worrying about people who love me, worrying about a future that can only get better. this is really beautiful, it felt like a friend that somehow understood deeply, without any words. thank you
I definitely did need this. Thank you, kind stranger who was become a small guiding light in so many people’s lives. I wish you all love and strength, and understanding for all
Found this after realizing I'm switching careers again after underappreciation at work. It's been a crazy year with a big move, the loss of my best friend, and finding out my sister is having her first child. Definitely helped to listen to this and relax for a moment
I was obese from primary school until 2018 when I’ve had enough of it. Lost 110 pounds, the hardest thing I have ever done. Flash forward to 2021 - I was diagnosed with Bipolar disorder and ADHD (which finally made sense why I felt the way I did). I was at the wrong psychiatrist, who drugged me - 30 pills a day - and this caused a weight gain of 130 pounds in 6 months! Those 6 months were a blur, I didn’t even “realize” that I was gaining all the weight back. Been struggling for 3 years with finding the right medication combination, and I’ve finally found it. This week is my first week of eating healthy and exercising - and I have already started to see a change in my body and my mind. I heard this video right now, as I was crying because I felt like I don’t have the willpower to do this all over again, for a second time. But this song reassured me that I will find peace and balance. Thank you! ❤
I always loved places like this, where a bunch of people going through all sorts of stuff just find a common place to be and support each other. Genuinely makes me so happy that they're still around :]
Videos and comments like these make me feel part of this giant club that is humankind. It's so easy to feel alone in a world like this. Stay safe everybody
this year was so turbulent for me. today felt like a culmination of all my relationships, all my career anxiety, on the verge of breaking. definitely needed this .
I've been going through the exact same things verbatim. Not sure if you're religious, but I'm praying for peace and success to come your way. Hope things get better
me too man. this year started off a right mess and I'll never forget how horrible i felt throughout 2024. maybe next year will be better? ill pray for us all ❤
Hey y'all, same verbatim here. Went through a two week long depression episode and a complete meltdown today from the culmination of last year's events. Broke up with my significant other, broke it off with two of my closest ever friends and my academic career got pushed further back due to law changes. I recently got more into religion and faith. I'll also be praying for you guys. Stay safe and please drink plenty of water.
Stay safe stranger
You too
You as well. 💚
You too ❤

Found this while in the hospital getting treated for relapsed leukemia. I hope I can find this video again someday when I’m finally healthy. I never thought I would have to go through this again
I'm sorry to hear that, best wishes to you 🥺🫂 I hope you recover well
I'm so sorry, I hope so too!! May you heal soon💟
That must be really hard to go through. I wish health for you. Don't despair
i’m so sorry to hear you’re going through this. it must be incredibly tough to face leukemia again, but i’m sending all my positive energy your way for a strong recovery. hoping to hear back from you when you're healthy and well. lots of love and strength to you.
it might be a tough battle but you are strong. dont let us down. you’ve got this!
I love these checkpoints, you never search for them. They show up on their own. The last time I was on a checkpoint, I was in a very rough spot in my life. It’s much better now. I’m proud of how far I’ve come and I hope you are too, fellow adventurer.
Don’t overwork yourself and don’t overthink things, life moves on. the next thing you know you’re somewhere you never thought you would be. Everything will be fine, I promise you. Have a blessed day, week and year. God speed.
i needed to hear someone say this to me today. thank you
The god speed really solidified it for me
God speed 🤝✊
Thanks, ...I wish things get better but I think that it's only gonna get worse...
thank you
Rare to find a comments section full of nothing but positivity, support, and overall humanity
Much love to y'all and keep fighting
Apparently I needed this because it found me

youtube checkpoints like these are what help us connect as a community, truly. no drama over celebrities, no arguments, just pure connection and support.
just wanted to say, if any of you feel like youre alone in this world, youre not. this stranger on the internet loves every single one of you :) /p
(edit: I CANT REPLY TO EVERYONE HERE BUT THANK YOU FOR THE LOVE, I LOVE YOU ALL TOO!!!!)
Sorry if this is off topic but is your pfp a tv girl reference 🔥🔥
+ laufey n mitski! ur like the 7th person to notice, but i love it, thank you!!!
also i love off topic topics hehe :)
I love you too. Take care
Thank you, goes out to you as well
Love you, and everyone here, not here, all between that and beyond that 🤍🌺🪷
I like that we're all showing some of the deepest parts of ourselves to strangers because a sound spoke to us. Humanity isn't that bad sometimes.
Idk why but my eyes are filled with tears...
Humans connect through music a lot. It’s one of the greatest gifts we could’ve ever received.
yeah just wait till that one fatherless prick finds this video and decides to tell everyone in the comment section that their issues dont matter and they're corny for sharing it
Humanity is beautiful until the ugly ppl show up, hope the weirdos dont show up
Humanity is pretty great. Most of the jerks are just in pain and handling it poorly.
I tried to open up a wee bit on here a few days ago and someone commented 'Go kill yourself" wow. Lol. Can't win. ❤❤
My eyes are filled with tears now. No negativity here, just positivity. I wish everyone was just as kind as people here.
I passed all of my exams today. I made new friends and I'm slowly healing. my soul is healing, and I can feel that. thank you so much. I really needed this.
you’re gonna be alright :’), everything will be alright 🫂
i’m in the middle of mock exams rn too!! so glad you’re doing well
Congratulations ❤ I'm so happy for you
Thank you for staying 🫶🏼
I'm so proud of you
I made a new friend yesterday after months of isolation. It felt like a breath of fresh air and I think I felt happier yesterday than I have in a long time.
I feel you man. Stay safe!
ME TOO i made a new friend after 3 years of not having any and its the best thing ever!!!!
I found this while using the bathroom….
OMG WAIT THAT MEANS IM DESTINED TO MEET SKIBIDI TOILETTT 😱😱😱😱😱😨😨😨😨
Honestly, i'm just afraid to talk to someone or make new friends. Feel like they will all eventually abandon me like all my friends did in the past. maybe there is something fundamentally wrong with me that's y everyone leaves me.
@@sankalpadas7888 we are all flawed humans, we will meet and seperate from many people in this life. As someone who has lost many people myself please take my advice: Don't let the things or people you've lost rob you of experiencing the gift of something new. instead treasure the good from those experiences and learn from the bad. God created you and me, he created all of us to be social creatures, please don't isolate yourself because of your fears or past experiences, instead go through your fears and work on them, talk to God when you want and invite him to help mend anything that is broken within you, he truly knows what's best for each and everyone of us. Jesus loves you friend and you matter more than you will ever understand.
I’m in my grandpa’s backyard, introducing him to my nephew for the first and last time. We take a picture together, in front of the small, long-unused and faded treehouse. There’s the sound of people playing in the public pool on the other side of the fence.
I can’t go back to that place and time but I’m glad that it happened.
lots of blessings to u and ur family!
poetic as fuck. love this. ❤

@@SickSpace what they said
Almost cried. Just recently lost my grandpa.
My dads getting surgery tomorrow for his cancer. Apparently its a really complicated operqtion and he may not make it so i really needed this. Im so glae for most of ur stories in the comments and so sorry for the other half. Stay safe yall
I hope your dad is alright. Prying for him. Stay strong❤
I wish you all the best, and him all the best.
I hope he is okay praying for you guys
Is he alright?
Stay strong ❤
On the morning of Halloween, my aunt suddenly collapsed from a brain aneurysm, and went into cardiac arrest. For a week the whole family has spent turns visiting her, but despite medical intervention the doctors informed us that the damage was too severe, and she was brain dead. Today we said our goodbyes, and they will be turning off her life support.
Thank you for this song. It’s exactly what I needed right now, and I can only hope that wherever my aunt is, it’s as peaceful as this.
We all miss you, Julie. You were loved dearly, and still are.
I’m sorry for your loss but I know she is in a better place now, but will forever in your heart and memories ❤
Firstly, I would just like to say that I am so sorry for your loss. Secondly, I had a similar thing happen a few years ago. My aunt (also named Julie) got diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor. I'm so sure that both Julie's are in a better place and I hope you and the rest of your family can heal from this ❤
May her memory be a blessing
I’m so sorry for your loss :( I really hope what your going through gets better ❤
My deepest condolences to you and your family 😢
lying in my dorm room, completely overwhelmed by both my daily life and the happenings of the world around me... thank you for this moment of peace. it made me feel like i was ten years in the future, looking back on now-me and telling them they made it.
Praying peace over you and your mind now in the name of Jesus 😊
Thank you for some hope :)
I wish I could go back to me in college laying awake in my dorm room. I, too, had so many insecurities and doubts. I made it, I’m happier and healthier than I ever was, and it was so, so worth. Also, please don’t stress unnecessarily. If you can avoid it. Things will work out. You are loved, and you are going to make it, and I’m so proud of you.
We're gonna be OK. It'll be chaos. But we're gonna be OK. :)
I remember that exact feeling, a few years ago i would just lay on the floor of my dorm, feeling overwhelmed and wanting to die… but things are getting better and I’m glad I’m still here. Things will get better for you too, just remember to keep breathing 🫂
this comment section feels like a total safe space, even when we’re all strangers.
i’ve read some stories, im proud of you for healing, or trying to heal. it’s a tough process, but you got this. i believe in you
Thank you stranger, have a safe day.
I needed this because it made me realize how far I’ve come. My wife and I brought our beautiful baby girl home today, and I’ve realized that I am now more rich than ever before. I have so many supporters, and a lovely family that I love with all my heart despite having serious trouble with my own emotions. I spent so long not being able to feel a thing, yet now my heart is so full of love and joy that it feels strangely foreign. Life will always get better, you just have to believe in yourself enough to make it past the limitations you’ve either set for yourself or the limitations others have placed upon you. Even though it’s 3am and I am currently dealing with a fussy little girl, I can confidently say that I have overcome my past and am making true strides towards a better future for myself and my wonderful family. I love you all. You will make it. If you can’t believe in yourself, then let me. You are noticed, and you are not alone.
@@Raijuo how wonderful!! Congratulations!! God bless you & your family 🙏🏼❤️
Thnk u ❤❤ I'll pray 4 ur family health ❤❤
From someone who's lived it twice- you've got a long journey ahead, it will be tough at times, especially being awake all night over and over again for several years, make sure to look after yourself (and your wife, make sure you both give each other a break now and then) and it is all worth it in the end. No idea why this vid popped up, guess it's just time.
Didn't know what this would be, so I clicked it to find out. Found so many people celebrating and mourning and reflecting on their lives, and it reminded me so late in the middle of the night, at least for me, that there's so many people out there, going through their own lives.
Hope to see all of you again soon, in these passing moments.
Trying my best lately to remember this, we're all going through complicated things and all living equally complex lives.
We should all be kinder and more understanding with each other, as much as we can at least.
Same
This was such a blessing to come across! Your comment & this video. I love this World, sometimes 😂❤
Things like this I feel are very deeply Human
Sonder.
had an embarrassing panic attack last night at a concert in front of a stranger who showed me photos of her cat to calm me down. i don’t even know your name but thank you, this reminds me of you
Thats so sweet
I'm glad someone stepped up and was able to help you.
I had a panic attack a few weeks ago on Farris wheel thank fully my friend was there
My Dr. taught me to find an object and concentrate. I was afraid to even walk into a target. But he told me to walk in and not think about me having a panic attack. He then told me to walk in and find things to touch if I have thoughts of freaking out. So far I now can walk into any store. If I’m standing in a long line or stuck in traffic is a struggle.
she'll never read this. There is no hope for you.

I can’t remember my last checkpoint. I think I avoided them because I didn’t feel like it was the time. But now is good. I did it. I worked hard and I’m happy. I have the things I want. I have loved and been loved. I smile more than ever. I hope for the same from now on and that is good.
i’m glad u’re in a place where hard work, love, and happiness all line up. may this be just the start of even more good things ahead!
you don’t know me, but i’m still so proud of you 🩵
You deserve to take a break. And you deserve all the love that comes your way.
Cheers,
a stranger
And you’ve got so many people who appreciate your content, your art inspires me so much thank you
I finally have a stable and supportive group of friends that I’ve lacked for most of my life, and this video sounds like the memories I could of had with them if I had just met them sooner.
I love the fact that everyone's talking about what happened to them and what's going on. It's making me cry. Everyone experienced today differently, and it's so beautiful.
we all tryna find the good, in one way or another
Bless you both ❤til we meet again! 😊
The funny thing is, I think we all need this. If you clicked, this made you think of something you needed to think about.
I wish you all the best.
Nothing? Why nothing tho?
Curiosity
Everyone is curious. :)
I had a flashback of like the last 9 years, and I don't know how to feel.
You, too, stranger.
I'm currently half-asleep, laying next to the love of my life (who is snoring reaaaaaaal hard rn) .. we occasionally twitch or move and wake each other up by accident.. but then we exchange a few jokes and then fall back to sleep. Life is good.
But I also suffered from bad anxiety attacks today, thanks to a nasty disorder I've had for over half my life. It felt so so big and consuming at the time. Now? Not so much.
Sometimes a bad day doesn't have to stay bad. Sometimes you can get through the shitty feeling and reach the part where you couldn't be more at peace. Sometimes a day can be both. Even I forget that. So I'm going to leave this here as a reminder.. to me or you reading this.
Things can improve. In the simplest of ways.
Sound like me and my SO, I wish you guys the best. I always want to do the most for her because she deserves it, but sometimes it feels like too much for me to handle. But she knows and supports me as much as I lift her up. I love every second with her and it may be rough sometimes when we have to work through her anxiety and her panic attacks but that’s why I’m here. I’m her pillars of Hercules. Thank you for sharing your story and allowing me too as well
"Sometimes a bad day doesn't have to stay bad" is so true. We often get used to the suffering we had in the past and don't even realize we can outgrow it and it doesn't always have to be like that. We can get better and we don't need a permission for that, we deserve it.
Made me cry fr 😢
honestly, i hope this is me sometime in the future. Thank you for this comment.
We can appreciate the point of this but come on man, life is bullshit for many others, regardless of mindset, outlook, etc. Sometimes, life just sucks and you embrace the suck.
as a content creator, i am absolutely mesmerized and fully moved by the sheer amount of good will projected through this artpiece. i wish everyone who appreciated this stamp in the youtube ether will have a safe and happy life, especially the creator.
11/07/2024 - it’s been a hard few months. My best friend in the world, the best dog on this planet, passed away two months ago and I still can’t deal with it. I recently went to the ER and my partner, two weeks later, nearly went in as well. My friends are struggling with family and financial issues and the election just passed. It’s rough. I’m tired. But this grounded me, even if just for a few minutes. A gentle reminder to be happy with what I have, to cherish it and to live in spite of it all. Thank you for that reminder. We all need one, once in awhile. A reminder to live and to love and to stay grounded for those around us. Thank you.
I'm very sorry, I know how you feel. Look after yourself 🫶
I’m glad you’re still here ❤
You have a beautiful mindset
I’m still struggling to cope with the loss of my beloved dog on January 26th of this year ❤ I know how you’re feeling and I’m so sorry.
I am so sorry for your loss. Losing a friend sounds devastating, and losing a furry family member hurts. I will keep you in my mind and heart. Whether you believe in God or not, I would love to pray for you for peace for your soul. So, may I pray for you?
My wife suffers from Endometriosis and is in constant chronic pain. Tonight I am lying next to her in bed and she has fallen asleep first which never happens. She looks so peaceful and rested when the pain isn't keeping her awake and weighing down on her and dictating how she lives her life. Seeing her like this, I can't wait for the day she beats endo and is no longer in pain
This video found me in this moment as I lay awake thinking about all of this, so thank you
Hope she gets better soon
As a fellow husband to a chronic pain wife, seeing someone you love suffer day after day is the worst. You've both got this and will make it through ❤
Not my wife but my best friend/basically domestic partner also has Endo and a list of other pain conditions. I know exactly the look you're describing 💜 she has seizures so when her husband is away for work I facetime her and basically watch her sleep. Don't do it much anymore, her husband changed jobs and she has a service dog now who wakes her up when he smells a seizure coming.
I’m sorry, I hope her pain gets better soon
She’s lucky to have someone like you.
“read everyone’s comments and trying not to cry” challenge. lol
seeing everyone be so supportive to strangers makes me happy I’m still here. there’s good in the world, and there’s love to witness.
i usually just observe and exit videos without leaving a trace… but to any and everyone that reads this, coming from a girl that has been to hell and back, and still has her fair share of bad days:
don’t leave before the end of the movie, you’ll miss all the best parts. stay here a little longer. take a deep breath, and know that you are not alone.
Just found this. Life is pretty good right now. I’m stressed and anxious, but I’m graduating with a bachelor’s degree in May, I’m surrounded by friends and loved ones, and I have a long term partner whom I love dearly… I don’t think I would’ve seen myself in this spot a year ago. It’s going to be okay. It does get better. Take a deep breath. Take it a day at a time. I love you. ♥️
Thanks for this, 26/10/2024 I hope that whoever finds this a couple of years in the future reminds me of this. Because even if you are seeing it, you are going to forget it.
thanks for ur wonderful comment
What month is 26?

It sounds extremely familiar but I can’t quite place it. Like an ambient track in a Sigur Ros album I could swear I have heard before.

I don't know why I started crying when I heard this. There is something magical about this, that makes me feel like everything will be okay. Thank you
Same
As if living was beautiful
Istg. I didn't cry but I was definitely close
What are you people on about? If this makes you cry how do you manage any real issues life throws at you?
I don’t see how you see a correlation between them feeling certain emotions whilst listening to this and them managing irl issue. From you’re tone, it sounds like you think that they can’t manage problems because they cried at this, which is stupid. Some people are more prone to cry than others. You sound like one of those people who thinks that crying is a sign of weakness, but I digress since the others will reply to you, so argue with ‘em.
@@JauntyWhale crying doesn’t make someone weak - it’s just part of being human. sometimes the simplest things, like music, can tap into emotions we didn’t even realize we were holding onto. maybe it brings up feelings of loss, guilt, or something deeply personal. everyone has their own battles and ways of dealing with them, and emotions aren’t always logical. what might seem small to one person can carry a lot of weight for someone else. it’s important to respect that.
I quit drinking. I’m not an alcoholic, but I feel pretty convicted about this. Haven’t had anything since two weeks ago, and it feels like I lost a headache I’ve never noticed before. Everything is a little brighter, and life feels just a little better
I'm so proud of you mate. Everything gets better.
well done. that is such a massive step in the right direction, you should be really proud of yourself
If there is a god he interviend
Super proud of you mate
I’m proud of you 🫶
[22/11/24] I dont comment often, but here i am. I was feeling lonely and depressed from past week, and thought this video is just a clickbait but turned out to be a wholesome comment section, it really found me, thanks algorithm! it made me smile.
My mother just recently passed away this Tuesday. She was recovering from a brain aneurysm for around two months, but health complications soon occurred: pulmonary embolisms and stroke, to be specific. She was put on hospice around a week before she passed, and I never got to truly say goodbye. Losing her was always a huge fear of mine, but I never thought I’d have to go through it this young in life. I’m only fourteen, I shouldn’t be burying her. It has been two days since my father broke the news to me, and I found this video. It reminded me that she wouldn’t want me to stop living my life just because she lost hers. She’d want me to keep fighting and doing what I love, and that’s what I plan on doing. She’d want me to pursue my dream career and go to my dream college. I truly hope this video comes back around one day, whether it be when I finally find peace or even when I graduate in the next few years.
i'm so sorry for your loss, we are never really prepared to saying goodbye. I really hope you ca come around and enjoy life as your mother would want for you. Take a lot of care, and I wish you always the best
i lost my dad two weeks ago, so i get it, though i’m 6 years older. but we’ll get through this together, i promise
@@RabidVegas Hoping you're doing better now, wherever he is he's proud of you! Stay strong and may your dad rest in peace ♥
Sorry you've lost her. It's a fear of mine too. I'm glad you're determined to live your best life. You'll make her proud. ♡
I hope you will find happiness in all the wonderful things you have done and will do, the amazing places you have seen and will one day explore, the extraordinary experiences stored away in your memory and the ones that lie, waiting, still in front of you.
im so sorry ❤
I'm falling into a pretty bad depression again. This is the first time I've actually worded the situation like it is. I really hope I find the strength to be good for my close ones, life has really been testing me and I've started to isolate myself from others. I just try to keep reminding myself of the times I have gotten through before, how even though it felt like the end of the world back then, I'm still here now and that it did get better. Even though it's bad again, it will get better again as well. I just have to give myself mercy and trust that this too shall pass
I'm right here with you 🤍 we'll get through this
your not alone. never. be safe partner. seasons change, and with seasons we change. but dont be afraid of whats coming. cheer for it. greet it with open arms. life is hard so that the beauty is even more valuable. be safe now
🫂🫂🫂
Remember: everything is temporary. Your pain will not last forever. 💙
I’m there too. We can get through to the light. Keep your eyes and mind on what’s true. 💜
This feels like swimming with my younger sslf, telling her that im no longer afraid of water and am stronger now, i love swimming and do it when i can. She'd be so happy to hear. I can help her tread the water now. She doesn't have to know all the bad things. She doesn't have to know she wont swim for months due to cysts on her body. She doesn't have to know her alcoholic father becomes worse. She doesn't have to know she'll fail her vision test and her blindness is worse than she thought. She doesn't have to be insecure. She can float. She doesn't have to know how deep that pool is. She can just swim.
Thank you for this. I'm not sure why but i feel like crying when i hear this. I needed a moment of reflection and nostalgia.
I hope whoever sees this is alright and staying strong. Things are bad a lot, but without bad we wouldn't be able to enjoy the good. I hope you can find some peace. Please stay safe. Theres always somebody that cares. It might even be your future self. Live for them.
Take a swim. :) ❤
This is beautiful, thank uou
We can swim together to survive this hard time, hope that things get better for you and us.
i relate a lot to your story in my own way, youre not alone, ty for reminding me stranger.
Swimming helped me get out of a depression.....make sure you eat well to nourish your body, get enough sleep to re-charge your energy. You will find something that brings you out of the way you are feeling 💕
I'm sitting with brother in hospital while he holds his little baby girl in his hands. He's been through alot and it feels really good to see the joy on his face when he looks at the child.
It's 2 in the morning. I haven't been able to sleep yet and this video popped out of the blue. I don't know what to say. I didn't intend on commenting, but reading the comments under this inspires me to leave a piece of myself here. Dear stranger, whatever it is going on in your life, please know that you're not alone. You are loved in so many ways you'll never know of. You are looked out for in this beautiful world. You are not alone. I love you.
I love people coming together like this in a UA-cam video's comments section, man. I love humans. We are so beautiful. Love every single one of you all. Thank you for making this world a better place.
3am here. I keep moving forward, because I keep telling myself that it has to get better at some point.
Thank you, friend. May your burdens be light and your path be gentle.
Oh shi, me too
Hi from the land of whites, butter on everything, and guns
1 am here , I love that we are strangers and may never meet, but I do love these little glimpses of life we so scarely get.
Hey everyone, I hope you're all doing well. I wanted to share a gentle suggestion that might help improve your sleep. Consider trying the 3-2-1 rule: stop eating about 3 hours before bedtime, limit your water intake 2 hours before, and avoid screens like computers, TVs, and phones for 1 hour before sleep. It can also be helpful to steer clear of caffeine if you're less than 7 hours away from going to bed. I know how challenging it can be to wind down, but taking these small steps may really make a difference in how well you rest. Take care!
2 am here, far from my home country and having never ending problems. You don’t know how your comment helps me right now 🥲 Sending love to everyone facing difficulties, you’ll make it through ! 🫶🏼
Just got back from an amazing hangout with my boyfriend. We walked, talked and joked for hours. My legs hurt but he was worth every moment. I love him, this tune reminds me of his soul. Thank you.
Girl me too I'm so in love with my boyfriend I'm dying every second with him is so precious I would spend every last one sitting with him talking and being with him it's absolutely consumed me on every level
How beautiful ❤
I hope you two live happily together. Don't let anything stop you.
YAY!!!!
K
it's dark and rather cold, everyone in the house is deep asleep. it's one of the rare moments when i feel at peace
thanks, i needed that
Relatable. When everyone else is asleep or not home is when im happiest because i cant be screamed at for everything and dont have to listen to them scream at each other.
I love the way that these fleeting moments are ways for everyone to connect and be related to
Dealing with the loss of my love. Still in the process of healing, but I'm patient and I'm fine with the journey. We were deeply in love and I wish for everyone to find what I had and keep it. I love the positivity and the check point/rest spot, thank you for this moment of peace. :)
If you're reading this, hold onto what hope you have in your heart. The sun will rise and you will have a new day to try again. It can be hard to find the strength to keep going, but I know you can do it. There's an army of strangers here rooting for your success. Sending much love to whoever needs it. 💙

Grazie!
I confided in someone new today. He took me seriously, validated what I felt, treated it with kindness.
Thank you George
From one George to another (Kinda) Hope all goes well.
George sounds wonderful:)
George must be a real caring man, I wish more people in the world were impartially kind like him.
Two days ago my 7 year old dog went over the rainbow bridge. He was relatively young, but the illness was too strong. We did our best, vets did their best, but it was too much for him. I hope he forgave me for everything that I could’ve ever done wrong to him. But I believe that he was happy to spend his life with us.
we aren’t perfect, but we are to them ❤ it sounds like you did whatever you could for him and that’s all that matters, aside from loving him. and it’s clear you did that too. i hope you can find peace and heal soon ❤
i’m so sorry to hear about ur dog. i’m sure he felt the love u gave him. he was lucky to have u, and i hope u can find some peace knowing he had a happy life with u. sending u strength during this time
My dog, Igor, also left me a few days ago. I was a wreck. It happened in one of the worst times of my life, one in which I really needed him and now I have to learn to live without his physical presence.
I know the love these tiny creatures gave us will forever live in our hearts but it's hard to accept that we don't get to have more than that.
We gave them love and that's what they're gonna remember forever, just like us.
Sending love❤
i’m sure he left knowing that you did the best you could for him and is immensely grateful for that
I’m so sorry and sending you lots of love! So hard losing our babies.💕
This is one of the most wholesome comment sections I’ve ever seen.
To everyone doing well here, I’m very happy for you, and to everyone struggling right now, just know things will get better. Wishing success and the best of luck to everyone here!
I have gone 47 days without self harm today. Im so very proud of myself for making it this far, things are going much better now. Thank you for this.
Edit- I didn't realize so many people were going through the same thing as me. I have read all of your comments and i about cried- Thank you so so much for caring about me. (Day 48!!)
I love u...
Will u plz reply me tomorrow??
Stay Strong buddy 💗💗I will pray for you

I like to think that this video will find us again, all of us in places we never expected to be, and better
I hope so, who knows what will happen to us in the future..
Recently hit the age I thought I wouldn’t make it to as a kid. I was so set on it that I even marked it on my calendar as “final” hoping if my parents saw it on accident they would just think it was for school.
Thankfully, I’m on medication, I’m recovering from months of being alone during my middle school years and years of trauma I’ve built up with the help of my friends and my mom. Times where I get past my initial expectations make me regret ever doubting myself in the first place. Human life is wonderful, painful, and sometimes confusing; yet somehow, we get through it.
To those reading, thank you for making it. Thank you for living another day. Thank you for being strong enough to breathe another breath. And to those who have lost others: I’m sorry that they had to suffer, but at least they held out as long as they had with all the turmoil inside them.
I don’t care if you are a total stranger on the internet. I love you. And you are so so valuable and worth every interaction, every conversation, and every breath. Keep fighting, even when all hope is lost.
i love you too i’m glad ur still here 💗
That's deep
I'm in my mid 20s and never imagined I'd turn 18. It's so surreal
Blessings to you brother.An to all in need.Jesus loves you if you think nobody does.Hang in there,it gets better witu time an some effort.

Having endured trials of hardship and faith, I sit here among gentle souls and feel hopeful for this world. There is still beauty in this world, and I know it is not time to give up. I will see it through because it is correct, I will take the harder road because it is noble. And I will remain loyal and steadfast because it is an honor to serve you.
I woke up today to messages that put nothing but anxiety and fear into me. I was beyond scared that I had lost someone that I loved and cared for so deeply that I spent 2 hours curled up in bed, hoping they were okay. I went to take a shower, anxious and hysterical. Yet some feeling of warmth came over me, a gentle hand on my head to keep my thoughts still. Then, when I sat down and opened youtube, this was the first thing I saw.
So here I am, crying over a sound. Not because I'm scared, but because something in me knows that I need this moment to just break. I need to break to be remade even stronger, because I know it's okay to break, to cry, to feel. So even as I may be a sniffling, sobbing mess, this is to you who is reading this, who may need this more than maybe I do in this moment in time:
You'll be okay. And if you're not now, that's okay. It's okay to not be okay.
3 deep breaths, start there.
Inhale, exhale. Inhale, exhale. Inhale, exhale.
It'll be okay. We'll get through this together, we who do not know each other, but we who will stand together regardless. Spiritual brothers and sisters at arms, we will get through this.
After all, if you haven't gotten through life up to this point, you wouldn't be reading this, would you?
Hi, hysteric sobbing to your comment. I've been better, but this takes the load off a bit. Thank you.
@@DuckyBoi0
@@jptheboat Anything is possible, sobbing or not. Just remember, even if you break in this moment, you're never broken. You've got this, I believe in you.
I've recently had to face a reminder of how stupidly cruel life can be, 1 single moment that recently occurred tossing a community into the gutters of hell. Emotionally I'm broken.
But nobody else seems to understand or show it, so I hide it from them... but the thoughts of fear and wondering what others are going through... to anyone who understands. I'm sorry. Truly sorry for the loss.
To anyone reading this, I am so so proud of you. For everything. For everything you’ve overcame and everything you have ever done. You are a walking star. You are amazing! I hope you know that. Even though I am a stranger, I deeply love you all. Keep going dears. You have got this. ❤️
Thanks I wish the same for you stranger❤
Thank you :(
Thank you..
This made me cry. Thank you.
Thanks but, I'm only getting started. Thanks for getting me hyped up. ❤️
It’s 11:53 AM, November 10, 2024, and i needed this. I’ve been struggling for as long as i can remember, but it’s been about 4 long years of feeling depressed. I actually have a trip and a concert im looking forward to in about a week, and im excited. I just hope i can live a long life. ❤❤
Live on, stay strong my friend. There are people in this world who love you, and, if not already, people who depend on you for more than just finances or anything else like that.
hell yeah we’re going to be the best old people ever, ya hear me?
So proud of you for taking your journey one day at a time ❤ I hope you have a long and beautiful life
You are the man, Braden, you. are. the. man. I too list the exact time and date as a way of grounding myself when it all gets to be too much. We’re in this together, you and I.
stay strong man, even with all the difficulties, life Is truly magnificent
After suffering from depression for the past few months, I finally found the person who made me feel like me again. Thank you, A.
I found this while struggling with anxiety and depression, it hadn’t been this bad in years. Some days the only thing I can do is just get out of bed and survive. I’ve forgotten what actually living feels like anymore. And I’m very scared. I have to be strong for everyone else. My mom, my little brother, my friends. But I’m so tired.
I know that until death, every defeat is psychological. And I’m not going to stop fighting. There has to be a light at the end of the tunnel. I believe in all of you.
Always remember you don't have to be strong for everyone else. You have to be strong for you. And we're routing for ya
I’m proud of you 💙
Something my cousin (who is probably one of the toughest people I know, highly intelligent, hardcore military, struggled with depression all his life) said to me when I discussed feeling suicidal with him, he told me “every day you’ve made it, you’ve won.”
you're stronger than you think! The fact you're still here is evidence
You will find yourself, it'll take some time, yes, but you'll look back and be glad that you persisted with life
Stars shine brightest on the darkest nights
You are not alone know that. You are a beautiful soul here on earth and you deserve to live a happy life. There is always a light at the end of the tunnel. The only way after being in the bottom is UP look for the light in everything and you will find it. Sending you lots of love 💗
I often feel empty in the morning, just repeating the sames gestures like a robot. This morning was one of them. This video gave me a moment of emotion and I feel alive now. Thanks.
have a good day!
Whoever you are reading this, please accept this virtual hug. I don't know you or your struggles, but I know you have them and I know we all need a hug. Life is brutal. It is cruel. But there are people who genuinely care, even if you've never met them. Be safe stranger and with all my heart I hope things improve for you soon
🫂🫂🫂
Thank you. Hugs to you too.x
Had a breakdown today, felt like i should just end myself and its hard to deal with those feelings. But a friend helped me thru the night and i feel like there is hope that things get better. Whoever reads this, I wish you everything you want for your life and that all tough times will pay off!

Got this while I’m worrying over whether or not I’ll be able to get through the next 4 years. Hearing this is just reminding me that I’m sitting in a theatre waiting for practice of play to start. I’m still in my budding years. Stay safe people
things are really scary right now, but we will be okay. we will find a reason to get up each morning, despite it all. you stay safe too

@@ultimatehusky5481this is a good point but i personally don't like comments like these irl because it feels disgenuine and you're disregarding how this person feels
@@luhmean9922 im??? sorry???? i am one of the ppl at highest risk after this election. i am legitimately terrified for my life. the point of my comment was a reminder that while this whole awful election could be _an_ end, it is not _the_ end. we will survive. we will live; viscerally, beautifully, because that is what life is.
You’ll literally be fine. Calm down ffs
After four years of suffering, mental and physically. I only have a week left. All the pain and torment is over, and now I have a beautiful woman waiting for me back home, my freedom, everything is nearing the end in this dark dark chapter. At many points I considered the void.

Check the lamp
Let your dream devour your life, not your life devour your dream
Very well said bud very well said.
I've let my dreams and imaginations devour my life. And now my life and responsibilities are devouring my dreams
No.
Dreams stem from life, and life stems from dreams. A dream that came from a part of your life that belongs in the past will seep into the future and keep you from moving forward. It can make you throw your friends and family to the wayside for a goal you may never reach. Respect the balance.
Dreams come and go, and to refuse to change or to accept when a dream is harmful will only leave you fighting against a current you can't beat. Flowing like water while remaining yourself is the way to go. Hold onto nothing but kindness. Nothing but life.
Unless you are in your Griffith era, of course.
It isn’t always what it seems. When you cling onto a dream it isn’t always there to please you.
Yes
Found this on a rainy night in November. This plus the rain really helped clear my head a bit.
I needed this. perfect music to sit down and start studying chemistry. No more ignoring my problems, no more running away.
You are doing great buddy
Speaking of which...
Imma stop procrastinating. A bit too late but, I'll plan tomorrow.

Found another checkpoint, I feel like these things always show up when im the most hopeless and they always give me security even if its just for a few minutes to everyone that sees this video, It will get better and you will get through this. Itll be hard for a while but you will get there I promise
Sometimes the algorithm hits just right, not very often, but it does.
Thank you, you're so cute
I'm glad the Internet Devs put all these checkpoints before boss fights, even if I haven't needed them so far. Someone may have lost their entire campaign if it weren't for them.
it will get better. you will get through this
Me too
I recently lost my motivations on everything and this found me. I hope everything will be better from now on.
Wishing you all the best, stranger! 🙏
Me too...but we're here now, tomorrow Will be a Better day, from now on things will be good, bless your heart
It will, stranger. If you need it, don't be shy to get professional mental help.
Me too. We’ll get through the rut together!
I’m struggling with motivation too…but I know that better days are ahead with more opportunities. Sending well wishes your way, dude
Finally embracing who I am as a person and doing my best for those around me, I hope my future will be one of meaning and love
The world is such a poetic place, right now there are people tending to gardens, creating life, getting married, people committing suicide, people losing a loved one, people hurting others, people cheating on their partners. This world has so many pain stakingly harsh contrasts, but in a way it is beautiful. People are being loved right now, people are loving right now. This world may not always be good, but at least we still have good things. I love you
exactly!
sun tzuah
I love you more. I love more than you might ever know
People couldn’t live without things like tending to a garden, you know what I mean. Thank you
the sudden cut from marriage to suicide caught me off guard
My grandma just passed away. A week ago yesterday. A lot of people in my life are already sick of me talking about it, but its been the only thing I’ve been able to think about since she got to the hospital. It was so sudden. I got no goodbye, I got no left behind notes or letters for me. She was just as much of a parent to me as either of my parents. I grew up in her house, and it will always be home. I miss my home.
I'm so sorry for your loss ❤
So sorry for your loss, stay strong!
You have probably heard this 100 times already, it gets easier, and sometimes it’ll feel like that day again, push through it because, you will feel closer to her again when you’re feeling better. Hope she is watching over you, I lost a grandparent I was close with, and didn’t get the chance to properly say goodbye, I feel for you man. It gets easier
My Grandma passed in July of this year, that bond will never break but the memories will always stay, sorry for your loss
❤❤❤

I wish u well too OP
Take care guys
My beautiful cat passed away today. I treasured every single second of our 11 years together. The birds in this video reminded me of when we would sit out in the garden when it was sunny, or when we would stare out of the kitchen window, side by side. I found you in this one, and I’ll find you in the next. See you then, my friend :)
It’s 140 A.M. and I’ve been in constant pain for years and I’m not even 20. This is helping me get through another night of not sleeping. Thank you
I believe you can even get through multiple nights with sleeping! See a doctor if you need to. Be well stranger ❤
I'm just in my "it hurts" phase rn...but I know everything's gonna be alright soon .. thankyou for this
yup, everything will be okay, soon!
Look mate trust me when I say this, it will get better. I just broke up with my girlfriend but all I can say is that it will get better… eventually. Even if there isn’t a light in the end of the tunnel there will be soon
@@bobtheuselessengineer5374 so sorry you've to go through that. Thankyou for your kind words! Hope you heal from this soon
I’m not going to lie to you at least for me the mental pain is like a scar sometimes it fades completely sometimes only a bit you can reduce it but not always completely remove it and sometimes it’s there to stay or just takes years to fully fade
Hey ik im just a random stranger on the internet, but you’ve gotten through hardship before and you will again, it won’t be ok. It will be more than ok. You are resilient, strong and loved. You make the world a brighter place with it in it. and even if you think you are completely alone, I will be here for you dude. It’s all going to work out soon, just keep pushing foreward ❤️
I confessed to my best friend two days ago and she told me she loves me too. I’ve been really nervous since because we live 3 hours apart and I won’t get the chance to see her again for a little while. We’re planning our first date and I really hope I don’t mess it up. I really needed this moment of serenity.
That's so nice! Everything will be fine, and I hope you two are very happy.
That’s great! Wishing you the best, hoping you both have a wonderful time.
If you’re ever feel like things are going south just try to talk things out with her, describe how your feeling and be straight forward and try not to overthink things too much, communication is pretty important in a relationship and it’s good to have it early on, I’m sure you’ll do great but thought I’d drop some advice.
Nice one! We're all real proud of you
I had a panic attack while at a concert the other night because of some bad memories. It was pretty embarrassing sitting in my seat crying while being surrounded by people cheering and dancing. I’ve recently been really overwhelmed and anxious with everything and this sound has made me take a step back and relax for just 2 minutes. Thank you.
I'm sending you virtual hugs ❤ Hope you will find ways to cope with anxiety, because I know how hard it might be
My dad passed away a few weeks ago after a short fight to recover from a stroke. This song popped up in my feed randomly yesterday. Upon listening to it, I was sent into tears. It was like he was telling me: “I’m okay now. I’m in a better place now. I’m no longer in pain. Please don’t dwell on my passing as I wish for you to move on with your life and cherish every memory we made together. Move on knowing that I am okay and you will be okay.” Rest easy, dad. I love you❤🕊️
Sending you all my love and strength 🫂💓
I really hope you feel better soon and I’m sure your dad would be so incredibly proud of you. ❤
found this at 1 am lying in bed. i’ve had a rough three years and trouble sleeping lately.
i guess i needed this.
i’m going to try and sleep now.
thank you.
i hope you sleep well
rest well stranger
Get some sleep bud, you are loved 🤍
this is exactly the same as me. rest easy.
i hope u overcome this and have a good sleep. also visit a doctor if possible as improper sleep would lead to many other health issues, both physical and mental.
My dog passed away. I loved him so much. He was the best boy ever. I am glad I could share it with y’all here. Y’all would have loved to see him.
sorry to hear that :( may he rest in peace 🙏
I understand being someone who befriends every nearby dog it's hard, not a day goes by when I don't wanna join all those pet/street dogs I lost.
May he be at peace 🕊️
my dog passed away this year, and every corner of the house seem haunted by her... the pain gets better tho, and the happy memories and feelings remain. Thank you for sharing ♡
Mine will tomorrow... Sorry for your loss and soon mine.
It just hit 12 AM for me... I'm eating a small dinner, finished watching half of an anime episode, have two assignments to finish, and feel... a little lonely. It's been three months since I last genuinely hung out with someone I am close to. I remember my best friend and I falling asleep as we talked about our dreams for the future: college major, careers, passionate interests, etc. I told her how I wanted to go upstate with her to walk under green trees, hike hills, and play in the snow. I told her that I am glad she is my best friend. We are still friends, we have been friends for the past 5 years, and we will be friends in the future. God blessed me with her and blessed her with me.
There are times I am scared of what the future may bring. However, I believe the future will bring more good experiences we can ever imagine. God bless you all at this checkpoint. You will be okay.
My community was devastated by the hurricane. So many things I loved are changed forever, several of my favorite places gone for good. I feel lucky for being okay and for not having lost anyone, but the survivor's guilt is suffocating. A family member took me away from it all a few days ago for my health. I just got back home and was sitting on the couch all anxious again when I got this in my recommended.
that sounds so heavy to go through. i can’t imagine the mix of relief and guilt u must be feeling. it’s good that u have family there for u, and i hope this piece brought u a little peace. sending strength ur way as u heal and rebuild. stay safe!
I’m glad you’re okay, I can’t imagine strength needed to keep on in such a situation
Hi friend, i live in wildfire country and have people near to me that lost everything too. Take time to mourn what you lost, it's an important step in rebuilding. There are people here that care so much about you
I sat in a local dumpling shop today, a cup of jasmine tea in hand, just… watching. Listening. Feeling life and the world move around me. A little boy giggling as his mother tried to wipe some broth off his face, an elderly gentleman heartily shook with laughter from something his buddy said, two fresh out of college looking guys cheering their cups of sake for something or other. I felt peace in what feels like years. True peace, almost joyful as the toddler being ushered on a trike by her father outside. It’s fleeting moments that make the most of this journey we all travel
What a vibe you can be a great story teller
That truly is life incarnate.
This video found me, and I appreciated its sudden appearance in my recommended feed. Not doing terrible, but not doing as well as I’d like. Thank you for this, stranger.
To anyone who sees this: Stay Safe.
stay safe too. u will be fine :)
@@SickSpaceThank you. The rough patches today are bumps compared to things from my past, so I’m grateful there. May life treat you well, and may you always have people in your corner supporting you. This Dutchman certainly does.
Hey, this is my first ever opening up here about what I'm going through recently. These past few days, I've been alone in my classroom and got no friends 'til I started to skip school due to my unmotivated feeling. And now, I'm back again to restart myself, catch up and remove those negative people in my life. So this is a small reminder to just take a deep breath and start over again, never quit. I don't need them and I don't have to stop myself for them. The God is with me to guide me and love me 💗💗 Thank you for this little checkpoint.
Just keep going. It’s always worth the effort.
Hope you will be strong to keep going ❤ I've also struggled with relations at school, I know it may be hard, but it's worth to pursue education.
Starting college at 24 after beating a long term illness, going on a date on Wednesday, reconnected with old friends, I'm doing good and this was at the top of my suggested videos
Thats so incredible I dont know you but im Proud!
Good luck to yous!
you got this!
Like a hand on your shoulder telling you it'll be alright.
you don't know how much hope that just gave me, i've been struggeling with my health really really hard the last 2,5years and it's getting better right now. thank you i'm wishing you a great life! ♥️♥️
Wishing nothing but the best for whoever finds this video and its creator
wishing the best for u too
The positivity of these comments is immeasurable. I wanna stay here forever😌
It's 11/03/2024, around 6:25 AM.
This was the first video I watched after reloading others multiple times, and it has been so relaxing. I want to sleep again; I've been having more trouble sleeping as the days go on. I've missed my classes and work, but this video hits differently. It's almost at a level I never expected. It resonates with me so much, even though it's so short, just like everyone's lives. This is more than just a video, music, or ambient sound. It's a reminder. Something that people call checkpoints, moments to share stories. So here's mine.
My mom's death was unexpected. It happened in the hospital, leaving just me, my brother, and my dad. I didn't grieve like they did. We all had our ways, but as I grew up, it finally hit me hard when I needed her the most. She never showed up, only in memories that felt so real that she appeared in my dreams at times. My dad jokes about her being a ghost or an angel, and so do my brother and I, yet I can never truly feel her presence.
I know it's strange to think this way, especially with religious beliefs, but I always believed in many things except what most people believe in America. I visited those places but never felt a connection, and as I'm about to become an adult, I still don't. Sometimes I feel like I never will, and that I won't have that connection with my mom either. I feel guilty, thinking it was my fault, and I never got to tell her that I loved her before she left. I was in shock as a young teen, but once I became older, I finally broke down and cried. I never got to share how I felt about myself, that I wasn't in a good place mentally, and that I should have helped her more around the house.
Guilt. Grief. In the end, it doesn't matter since life still moves on and changes.
This is what I felt while listening to this video, but in more ways than I can express. I have many more stories beyond this one. This isn't just a piece of media; it’s something I struggle to explain with these limited words. Perhaps, it's how it found me that truly matters.
Well, I'm going to rest now. It's currently 6:40 AM. Thank you for listening.
@@Kittienia hey. From what I can tell, you're still young. Not even an adult. I'm 25 now and I feel like I'm still growing as much as I did when I was 19. Life keeps going, but so will you. It'll get better. Take your time. You've got this, and your family and friends will be there along the way. Hugs.
This comment relates to me much more than I want to admit.
Today I had a meaningful conversation with myself. Unlocked some new achievements. Got a bit stronger. Thank you.
And now I'm saying this to you... Hold on to that faith... You will get through it. You will emerge victorious. Hugs.
Found this while I was in a down spiral, glad I found it because it lifted a weight off my shoulders. I hope anybody who reads this has found safety, or gotten better after watching/listening to this video.
@@twigperson6429 Hopefully we can find safety together. Good luck, friend.
I was spiraling yesterday but my mom and my sister dragged me out to a live band and drinks and dinner and in those moments, everything was OK. Its been a while since I've had to live for the moment, one moment at a time, but I've done it before and I'll do it again
its just started to snow where i am and i feel extremely calm in the midst of an anxious period in my life. it’s nice to feel good, even just for now. i’m so proud that even as a group of strangers, we can connect across the world through the comment section of a youtube video. this is nice. i’ve read stories, some sad, some happy, and i hope that whoever sees this will know that things get better, life changes, and you can always find the joy in the things you do. i believe in you. take care and stay safe :]

Was freaking out badly this morning. _Devastating_ news. Finding this has… helped me calm down, some. Distance from the panic. Will be returning tonight, put it on, keep calm.
Don't be scared, be prepared
god i cant believe this got recommended to me in the middle of the night, on my phone, can't sleep. listening to this at 1AM is a vibe

I found this at a time where I’ve been struggling so much recently with anxiety and panic attacks and just a general struggle. I feel like I can’t thrive within my studies and life and I feel like I’m ridiculed for the way I think because I believe I’m neurodivergent but I’m scared to be diagnosed and be seen as different. But seeing everyone sharing their stories at the same point in time is such a relief and makes me feel so much less alone. I hope everyone is able to find a sense of calm and content at one point and be happy where they are at and who they are. Wishing everyone the best
hello from an internet stranger who was diagnosed with a neurodevelopmental disorder (autism) two or so years ago. i can't say that things in this area have only been positive since then, because internalized ableism is absolutely a struggle, but i've found that my diagnosis has given me more clarity/a better understanding of how i think, allowed me to receive accommodations that have aided my studies, and provided opportunities for me to connect with resources that have helped my symptoms (such as executive skills coaching) and people who have validated my experiences. of course, pursuing diagnosis for any concerns you have is your choice. and while i may not be sure of what access to benefits such as these is like where you live, i can say with certainty that there are people out there who will see you for who you are and empathize with what you’re going through. i'll be rooting for you!
I found this while not really doing anything on my work break. Nothing amazing or terrible has happened lately, but reading all the people sharing their moments of vulnerability, be they good or bad has given me a comfort that I can't describe. Sometimes just a short ambient track can break down barriers in ways that no one really understands. To whoever you are that might be reading this, whatever you're doing and whatever is happening, take a moment to breathe. Reflect on yourself, and remember you were given life for a reason. Even if today sucks, tomorrow will always be there. Even if you feel like you're alone, someone out there is always thinking about you. It can be easy to get dragged down in the tides of life, and get lost in all the noise of today's world, but always remember, people do love you. And you can love other people. They say nothing lasts forever, and that's always true. So make the most of the good in your life, but don't stress if things get bad. It won't last forever, and the sun is always waiting to push away the night. Take care of yourselves, and greet the sun of tomorrow.
Hope I’m finally free someday
you are now free
You’ve always been free brother
I lost my ice cream m(
You are.
@@clurgee4923 not the way i dream about
this genuinely really grounded me. i closed my eyes, took a deep breath, and realised everything is okay. i’ve been worrying about a life that’s good, worrying about people who love me, worrying about a future that can only get better. this is really beautiful, it felt like a friend that somehow understood deeply, without any words. thank you
really happy it sent positive feelings and made u calm! everything will be fine, with time. keep pushing and living each moment. blessings
@ thank you, you’re right!
I definitely did need this. Thank you, kind stranger who was become a small guiding light in so many people’s lives. I wish you all love and strength, and understanding for all
thank you! wishing the best for u too!
Found this after realizing I'm switching careers again after underappreciation at work. It's been a crazy year with a big move, the loss of my best friend, and finding out my sister is having her first child. Definitely helped to listen to this and relax for a moment
I was obese from primary school until 2018 when I’ve had enough of it. Lost 110 pounds, the hardest thing I have ever done.
Flash forward to 2021 - I was diagnosed with Bipolar disorder and ADHD (which finally made sense why I felt the way I did). I was at the wrong psychiatrist, who drugged me - 30 pills a day - and this caused a weight gain of 130 pounds in 6 months! Those 6 months were a blur, I didn’t even “realize” that I was gaining all the weight back.
Been struggling for 3 years with finding the right medication combination, and I’ve finally found it.
This week is my first week of eating healthy and exercising - and I have already started to see a change in my body and my mind.
I heard this video right now, as I was crying because I felt like I don’t have the willpower to do this all over again, for a second time. But this song reassured me that I will find peace and balance.
Thank you! ❤
You are doing so good. Good luck in your journey, it might be hard but dont give up. You can do it champ.
This feels like a song that if you accidentally skip a couple of seconds ahead, it feels like you've missed out on so much. Love the tune btw
I always loved places like this, where a bunch of people going through all sorts of stuff just find a common place to be and support each other. Genuinely makes me so happy that they're still around :]
Videos and comments like these make me feel part of this giant club that is humankind. It's so easy to feel alone in a world like this. Stay safe everybody
this year was so turbulent for me. today felt like a culmination of all my relationships, all my career anxiety, on the verge of breaking. definitely needed this .
I've been going through the exact same things verbatim. Not sure if you're religious, but I'm praying for peace and success to come your way. Hope things get better
me too man. this year started off a right mess and I'll never forget how horrible i felt throughout 2024. maybe next year will be better? ill pray for us all ❤
Hey y'all, same verbatim here. Went through a two week long depression episode and a complete meltdown today from the culmination of last year's events.
Broke up with my significant other, broke it off with two of my closest ever friends and my academic career got pushed further back due to law changes.
I recently got more into religion and faith.
I'll also be praying for you guys.
Stay safe and please drink plenty of water.
Another voice to echo our anxiety and fear, May we all overcome this and find stability and peace
