You summed up what my Dad thought about cats. He said that in his next life, he wanted to come back as a cat. Tonight, a neighbor I grew up with, sent a memorial of him from his alma mater. Dad's name was Bob.
I love my job, but it requires my attention seven days a week, even while on vacation. It amazes me how much my cat absorbs my stress. I come home, and the cat jumps on my lap and begins to purr. Suddenly, my mind changes gears, and I'm happier.
Bob looks like he's having the best time. He's a comfy cat and that's just nice. Also, I adore the tiny Christmas tree and the fairy lights. Festive hut!!
He really does have it all. Unlimited food and freedom, heated bed...the only thing he can ever find to complain about is boredom, when the weather's bad and I don't do the chase toy non-stop. 😂
Your post about your lost and found cat drew me in… you are spot on about going on instinct and intuition because that is the flow. Humans mainly live in effort/thinking/analysis. At some point we will return to nature (because we are nature) and the flow more completely. Your video is very “timely”. Interesting… balance! Thank you!
Dude i have 8 trees lit year round with solar Christmas lights! The joy i have every night when the lights come on is priceless! Im stoked to see this is a universal joy. At least two of us have offgrid! Love this channel you and Bob.. omg bob❤
Charlie Brown Christmas tree lol i think Bob is living the ultimate cat life. I pray you have a safe and enjoyable holiday in your "cabin in the woods". I love your videos, they are enjoyable. Little life misadventures. How i wish i could stop and break free, my artistic side is like a caged bird. If i didnt have to be where im at at this moment in life, i would certainly run to paradise. 😊
Merry Christmas to you and Bob! Thank you for the wonderful videos, I've found myself really connecting to them, and everything from the narration, music, videos, humor, all amazing. I really look forward to seeing more of the journey in the future, whatever it may be.
These videos are kind of my way of staying connected to the world and sharing my lonely life out here, little messages in a bottle, so it makes me happy to hear someone's connecting with them!
@@OuterEdgeOutpost I see that. I think the one is an old pane! Wagon. Crazy how things get where they are. It's sure testimonial to how people abandon things.
I decided to get old school incandescent bulbs for nostalgia feels. I was surprised to see they even made those anymore. It really looks so different than LEDs.
LEDs have improved a lot, I absolutely refused to use the first few generations but they're now PRETTY CLOSE to incandescent warmth. There's still a faint "thinness" to the light though, where incandescents are thicc.
I found your channel by watching that video on Watson/Sebastian, and I hope you and Bob had a nice Christmas and New Year! I really like the sentiment of doing something pointless just for the fun of it. Thanks for that, and thanks for letting us peek into your shed life and part of your creative life too!
I would love to read a biographic novel about you and watson, your loss, your hope and how life moved on without him, to how you met your new cat. To your struggles and feelings as an individual.
It's so interesting that both Watson and Bob are strikingly similar in looks. ❤ Also, my parents live in Anacortes. Not sure where you are out there, but Washington and Oregon are my favorite states. I hope you and Bob have amazing and simple lives. I think cutting out all the extra clutter and connect instead with nature is the most healthy option.
Merry Christmas! The lights and your Christmas tree are so joyful! I didn’t have the energy to do much decorating this year, but I do find that mindless joy in looking at the twinkly lights and festive sparklies that other people put up 💖
This is the first time I've done one single Christmas decoration in my entire adult life. Literally never had my own Christmas tree, never put up lights. Kinda hilarious that NOW I get around to it when I'm living in a trash box in the wilderness. 😂
Hey Isaac, this was a great video. This is a great reminder to be silly once in a while and just have fun. We live in such high stress environment constantly thinking about the future and our "plans" people lose sight of what truly matters. I stumbled upon your videos because of cats. My cat, Boba, looks just like Bob, and their names are only one alphabet apart. Anyway, take care of yourself out there in the wilderness. You may not be "rich" by conventional standard but I am certain you are living the best version of yourself out there, free from all the distractions.
As a totally meaningless comment, I just *have* to say that Bob has such a perfect nose! Pink, delicately rimmed in black, to accentuate all the curves and straights...😻
It’s a wonderful thing you are doing and experiencing. I have watched almost all of your episodes and somewhere i know we all crave to do the same but have no guts to do it. Keep enjoying your time as a hermit. It’s the best. I heard in one of your videos about your psychedelic experience. For that I would suggest , try meditation. It will also take you to the levels of different realities, curtain raiser for what life is .Waiting for your next video. Btw i too love Cats! They are our spiritual animal. I do believe in that. Love from India.
Thank you! I have been practicing meditation lately, though I have not gotten very deep with it yet. It's part of the overall lifestyle I'm working toward out here, step by slow step.
oh hey. i thought that terrain looked familiar. i'm your up neighbour here in BC Okanagan valley. Commented about Watson the cat and admire your solitary building adventure.
Howdy neighbor! I love it when Okanogan folks find me here. I haven't ventured over the border yet but I've been up to Oroville. I love the feeling of that "no man's land" gap between the last US town and the first CA one. Looking forward to exploring more up that way.
@@OuterEdgeOutpost . Hello Sir. Yes Oroville is a kooky, sad little town. I'm in Osoyoos, just a hop over the border. As in 5 minutes from, and we share the lake. Everyone from here skips over to there to buy butter and cheese and gas. haha. If you ever stumble across the line do pop in to Elvis' shop on Main street and say hello. He's my brother and that's where i work. There is something unmistakable about the terrain which we share. I enjoy that Universe pointed me to your work. Happy holidays to you and Bob. Saturnalia?.lol.
This is very relevant to me....I spend my time thinking, Do I need this? Is it worth it? I wish I can be carefree like others.... at least sometimes..... Merry Christmas to you & Bob! 🎄🐈⬛
It's fun to just be. It's so easy to talk yourself out of fun things. It's too expensive. Is it though? Not really. Starbucks is having half off all drinks on Thursday til the 1st of January. Little things, like going to Five below, buying $5 pusheen pins to motivate you to keep going at your job. Love you, Bob. Merry Christmas to you and everyone🎄🕊
Most of the things that bring me joy aren't expensive at all, (all these lights cost me 15 bucks) it's more about the time and energy cost, which I tend to fixate on too much when living in desperate circumstances like I do currently. Takes effort to force myself to set the work aside once in a while and restore myself for a moment.
We are what we are. Dogs bark, cats meow, humans think. The price of thinking is emotional pain, due to how it binds us to the past and the imagined future. There's no escaping it, no matter how much we might want to have the cake and eat it too. As I see it, might as well just enjoy the ride - time will take care of the rest.
Watching your video reminded me of a book I was reading lately, called “The feline philosophy: Cats and the meaning of life ” by John Gray (not the one who wrote “Men are from Mars and women from Venus). “ In Feline Philosophy, the philosopher John Gray discovers in cats a way of living that is unburdened by anxiety and self-consciousness, showing how they embody answers to the big questions of love and attachment, mortality, morality, and the Self: Montaigne's house cat, whose un-examined life may have been the one worth living”. Greetings from the Eastern part of Europe.
This is your second video I watched. The first one is when you united with your lost cat. I want to be your friend!! You are so cool!! We have alot in common!!
Lol. Joker. Maybe u should move to Peru. There are at least 20 uncontacted tribes living in the Peruvian Amazon. This is beyond unusual & mildly interesting.
It's too late for me, the damage has been done! Would take decades to remove all the thoughts jammed in my head. I do want to move in that direction though, toward a much simpler way of life. Actually two friends of mine did move to Peru for that exact reason. They built huts in the jungle and they're over there trying to transcend. I plan to check it out eventually.
The only medicine I've ever found for that kind of pain is work. Make yourself too busy to pick at the wound. Lose yourself in a project of some kind. Specifically something productive, not just passive entertainment, because that allows the wound to fester. Productive effort tends to invigorate you and help force the poison out of you like sweat. Of course it's also worth spending some time sitting with the loss, asking yourself why it happened, if there might be lessons to learn that will help prepare you better for your next relationship. That's part of the healthy healing process. But ultimately it just takes time, and redirecting your focus into productive projects can be a nourishing anesthetic to keep life bearable while you wait for the pain to run its course. Good luck!
@@OuterEdgeOutpost Thankyou so much for your reply, i will try that soon, i have found some new hobbies and managed to keep going for now, still light at the end of my tunnel so i must go on.
Animals do live in the now... not to be confused with "not having memories." I have multiple experiences that prove - to me - beyond a shadow of a doubt that some critters retain some linear memories. Also, the Newtonian Universe is "13 billions years old" and the Newtonian Earth is "3.4 billion years old," both of these figures give or take multiples of ten to infinity. So it would be far more amazing that that no "intelligent" life - aka poetry makers - ever existed before the likes of us. As far as I'm concerned, the Great Gaza Pyramid was a bomb shelter - at least at the end of its usefulness - that more or less worked - yet most life was wiped off the chalkboard nonetheless... aka time to split and do a Elon-move inside the new moon we/they just parked nearby! Think outside the spiral friends, and GOD BLESS EVERYONE HERE WITH UNEXPECTED EXPERIENCES OF LOVE AND EXPANDED CONSCIOUSNESS! PS Bob for President!
By the way, you seem like a very good guy. Why haven't you found a significant other yet? Are you brokenhearted from any of your past failed relationship? You were successful in your recent past. Why didn't you invest your money for passive income?. What makes a man live completely alone without seeking shelter in another human? I'm eager to hear your response. I didn't mean to offend you with my blunt questions.
These are very "mom" questions. 😂 But ok I'll bite. The quick answers are: the kind of success I had doesn't pay nearly as much as most people assume. I invested most of it in a house, but equity alone isn't enough to live on forever. It kept me afloat for about 10 years before I put the last of it into these 20 acres and the shed. I've never had enough liquid assets to risk tying tying it up in "investments." And I don't have a "significant other" because I am not very interested in traditional partnership. I have explored that and found a desiccating effect on my soul. At least for this phase of my life, until I meet someone who Changes Everything, I prefer to be adrift. I do have relationships of different kinds, I am not ultimately Alone, I just don't parade that part of my life online.
Human intelligence us not à mistake. You only think like that because you believe in évolution. Funny how the human intelligence that God gave you allows you to live and experience and benefit from all the various situations un life you have been privileged to know. Now I pray that that same intelligence can help you be grateful and find your higher purpose it would bless you. May God surround you with His love
I don't know man, I grew up surrounded by God's love and searching for that "higher purpose." It didn't do much for me. Christian theology removes all meaning from life, because Earth is just a brief experiment that will be wiped out when God pulls the plug, and none of our efforts here can ever improve anything because God's plan is for it to get worse and worse until he nukes it. I never felt any trace of meaning in life until I abandoned that theological nihilism and started believing in human possibility. Our intelligence comes with great possibilities, but I don't think anything we typically use it for is worthwhile. Civilization, technology, etc, all just accelerating the birthing/eating/shitting/dying cycle without fundamentally changing it. The only time I experience anything that feels meaningful is in the tiny, quiet moments in the cracks between intelligent activities. Usually it's the stuff that gets me closer to feeling like an animal, that simple, wordless connection to other beings and to the universe. Intelligence does allow me to communicate those feelings, though, like I am right now, which is one perk and the main reason I became a writer.
Awww, I looove cats! They’re the sweetest! I have a cat myself and his name is BunBun. Sometimes I think about what he’s thinking too and like you a lot of the thoughts drift to how he perceives his surroundings and if he has memories like we do.
Yep cats are wonderful beings, fluffy bundles of love & joy. We have Bear & Husty manx cats, like Bob they follow us every were on our 14 hectares, even down to the river beach. When they hit the sand they flop over & roll & roll. Pure freedom in nature, how I wish everyone could live in this world. Have a lovely Christmas fm New Zealand 😊
I wish all cats could live in the country where they can be free to live natural lives. Indoor cats make me sad, though I understand why it's necessary in some places.

Aww Bob.......he's so darn cute sleeping with his mouth hanging open. Cats are the absolute best companions -- so says my 14 month old Siamese cat.
Merry Bobmas!
Bob loves you sooooo much, just look at that face.
Merry Christmas to you both and a Wonderful New Year.
He really does love his whole life, I've never had a more contented pet. He found his niche and he's luxuriating in it.
His blissfully happy sleepy little smile, as he's dozing in your arms, is just everything. :-)
I love the way you express your thoughts. That is why I love your books. Happy Holiday.
"Merry Christmas you filthy animal" lmao
What a fabulous video to spend my ‘just being’ time with. Thank you.

Extremely gratuitous Bob footage in this one! Consider it a holiday treat.
Love it. I'm a natural wilderness and animal lover.
Absolutely love the lights! And just the look of pure content on Bob's face is delightful! Great lessons to learn and practice.
I decided to get old school incandescent bulbs for nostalgia feels. I was surprised to see they even made those anymore. It really looks so different than LEDs.
@OuterEdgeOutpost it is a lot warmer light in general and isn't so harsh on the eyes. LEDs can be cool, but the OS just hits different.

@@OuterEdgeOutpost Thicc is the best way to put it honestly. Just a heavier light that's nostalgic.
What a great find was this channel
Merry Christmas to you and Bob. Hoping the New Year will be your best yet.😊

hey man, looking for some life advice as a 22 year old, how do you deal with the pain of women leaving, especially when your at home by yourself ?

I wish all cats could live in the country where they can be free to live natural lives. Indoor cats make me sad, though I understand why it's necessary in some places.
