I am also an older dude, this beautiful young man comes along once in a generation. I am a huge fan& need my daily fix of him. Thank you REN for what you are giving us& helping people around the world. ❤🙏
I'm an old guy, and Ren is one of the wisest people I've ever seen. The world needs as many like him as we can get, so I hope his message is heard and heeded by many. Thanks for this reaction.
I'm 39 and he's taught me a lot. I could listen to his music all day, but also listen to a podcast of him talking for hours. Can't wait until he writes a book. He could. I have many of the same thoughts, but can't get them out like he can
64 y.o. here, and I feel the same way. I feel it in my bones that Ren is a touchstone kind of person who really will help "raise all ships." (Mixed metaphors, lol.) Seeing how people of ALL ages are reacting to him and his art in a positive, thoughtful way gives me a great sense of hope. Edit: "Touchstone" isn't quite the right word. Maybe "talisman" is better.
I'm 60 and Ren has taught me so much too. My 21-year-old can't get into him because Dad recommended him first. We are the opposite about creating an image. Between Ren and Dimash, The 2 GOATS, in Dad's opinion, can't be on any "Top 10" list of son.
4:27 (cdt) It is apparent that Ren lives outside of himself. That seems to be where his strength comes from. Every time I hear him talk he is giving some of his strength away to someone less healthy than he. Ren you are a good dude, my friend.
He's a gem. I am a 39 year old that can't afford therapy, so this helps a lot. Ren is so human, yet an angel. I know he's not prefect, but he's trying so hard and that helps me.
@@suzannebaxter2888 yeah, I'm in that in between where I can't qualify for free insurance, but can't afford it either. Paycheck to paycheck working full time/ wife working full time. It sucks
Ren wasn't even singing and he still made me cry. Ren has had to find his core, his strength and he is using it now to share good things... it's a beautiful, rare and wonderful gift.
I know what you mean. I cannot remember in my 310 years of life any artist ever triggering so many emotions in me so often and so easily. He just walks right into our hearts each and every time. He is nothing short of utterly remarkable.
He has learnt wisdom the hard way, at an early age. He is sharing it with incredible generosity. We owe it to ourselves, and to him, to also learn from it, and to share it with others
I think he is an old soul, wise beyond his years. He is also very intelligent, reminds me of someone with a high IQ. I think he would of been just as great without being sick, but the sickness gave him strength and empathy in another direction.
As I genuinly love every sentence REN said, I really love someone has opened/started a youtubechannel like this. Thank you Lower the Shield Love from Norway
Thank you for your reaction - also a mental health provider in NC . Fell in love with Ren and his music a few months ago and am along for this amazing ride with Ren and the Renegades.
Ren is one of those influential life forces, that change the world and ripples thru the universe for good. From all his suffering, he brings hope and tolerance. Love and patience. BLESS YOU REN. AND THANK YOU SIR, FROM LOWER THE SHIELD, for spreading this message. Peace to you all, out there! ❤
My siblings and I grew up with a mentally ill Mother. We learned to cope with her illness. I wish there were artists like Ren back in the day. He is an inspiration. Our Mother left this world 8 years ago, RIP.
Beautiful words man, I don’t know you, I just arrived here because I follow REN, I just subscribed to your channel, I’m constantly surprised to see how many mature people are inspired by this young man, I believe REN is wise beyond his years. I’m more than 20yrs older than he is (12/8/67) and he is teaching me how to be a better human. Take care man Daz
In the UK we're mainly directed toward counselling or CBT for mental health care, but I think Ren is a great example of how ACT may sometimes be more beneficial - especially those with chronic illnesses who cannot change our situations. One of my most important lessons was that acceptance of my illness and its limitations did not mean I had given up on hope of recovery. Quite the opposite; it was the only way to heal.
I have been leaning this way more and more, I don’t want to think about my health every day, i just want to accept it and move in and I think I’m getting there. Ren is a hugely therapeutic person at every level, even the lighter tunes are absolute fire. He makes me laugh cry dance. No one like him.
I love your line of acceptance of my illness does not mean I've given up hope for my recovery. That is brilliant and a message I needed to hear. Thank you internet stranger ❤❤❤
I’m so glad that people or all ages are hearing, loving Ren. Everyone struggles mentally, physically and just surviving. The way Ren put himself out into the world is brilliant and it must have been scary. Brave Ren ❤
Ren truly has such a maturity and understanding of the human experience, and he tells, us through his songs, videos and his art that we are all not alone in our experiences, how every they affect us. And himself. He shows his vulnerability, so we can see and show our own. This is why Ren is loved by many.
Thank you for doing this. I had already listened to Ren but I needed to hear it again. And I enjoyed your reaction. Again, thank you. …Still thinking.✨❤️✨
Ren is an incredibly interesting artist. His tough life experience and ability to talk so openly will help and inspire many. His success is so well deserved.
You are so correct, it's helping even one person. If that's what our story of pain or trials or struggles does, if it helps someone else on their path, then it is all worth it. To make something good come from our pain, and suffering is the true gift. Thank you for this beautiful reaction.
This is why i love this man. His music, his artistry, his humbleness and humility, his beautiful and deep words of genius is therapy for me and from what ive read in many reactors videos comment, many others. Thank you doing this video. Ive watched several others react to this and with your and the others visions of this celebration is also therapy for me
Ren, your Magnificently Triumphant Dance in the Darkness of your Pain is a Truly Inspiring Light that Can and Has led many others out of a similar Darkness. Your Willingness and Ability to reach into your Darkness and bring it into the Light and to touch so many Hearts with your Music, Words, and Portrayals shows your Unparalleled Success! We Desperately need more people of your Integrity in this Crazy World of Ours! Keep Shining My Friend!
We all couldn't be more thankful or love him more - especially after this video... He ist so real and touched, that he even stumbles through words and He ist a master of speech... THANK YOU, Ren 🥹🩵🙏🏼 Besides, I'm 58, music addicted since 50 years and have never been so overwhelmed by talent, depth and wisdome... What a beautiful RENaissance!!! His music is the most important discovery for my personal life, since I came to know the musicians, poet and clown Herman van Veen in 1977...
🤩🤩🤩An Old Soul with New Values & Understanding- Challenges help us Grow into Our Best selves by urging & pushing us to survive, which then sets us up to Thrive💫💫💫
There are too many things wrong with humanity to convey in this post but Ren is a shining light out of this darkness. There is no virtue greater than humility, Thank you Ren. ❤
First time your channel has come up in my feed (prob bc it has 'Ren' in it). I watched and my thoughts are the same. Thank you for the response to it, it serves as another positive ripple in the world's consciousness.
So you popped up as a recommendation on my UA-cam page, and having seen Ren's video earlier today, and with his having mentioned the reaction community's support helped him to connect with more people, I thought I'd give you a spin. I'm glad I did. I enjoyed your words and insights, for I found them enlightening and affirming. Ren is a very special person who stands to have an enormous impact on the world, and people like you help him to spread his message, and I am genuinely grateful for that. I've subscribed to your channel and will check out some of your other videos. If this video is any indication of your work, I suspect I will be checking out many of them. Thanks for your wise words.
thank you again for your reaction, you help me stay grounded and focus on what's really important in my daily life. Just confirming what I thought and reminding me I am not alone. I lost my best friend of 30+ yrs in July and I was starting to drift towards that dark solitude. Thanks again to both you and Ren for pointing out the light... it is always there but sometimes it just harder for you to see when you are pointed in the wrong direction. For me anyway...
I continued to be amazed how we can find motivation or inspiration in the most unanticipated places to take new paths in life. May you move forward with strength of heart
What do I do with that struggle that may seem strange, self seeking attention, supernatural, bizarre, mental... I have to ingest it and it turns my skin on fire until hopefully the embers lesson lessens. It doesn't go in that direction though, seems worse the more I try, but that's all I have is to try.
People living in cities that become disconnected with nature maybe do not realise what damage is being done. The way we think of the small picture and not the future for our children and grandchildren etc.A completely throw away society is so distructive. We have lost the art of making things that are beautiful and last or can be mended.
Ren is fantastic and although I believe all he does and know his intentions are right this is a bit to much (for me personally). The message is fully included in his art no need to do this Ren with all due respect I love you and cry a lot when you hit me again and again with Hi Ren. You make me proud and thankful I lived in the time Ren finally got his well deserved stage. Keep the magic in the art. Show yourself in interviews and avoid overdoing things aside like this. I really hope this feedback does not offend anyone it's my opinion (or feeling).
@renmakesmusic. Deep gratitude to Ren for giving so much of himself for us in his communities to benefit.
❤REN! As a Health Professional I accept the Challenge
Thank you, Mark for the thoughtful analysis. God bless...Bob Clark

Yeah, same place. I'm 55 and he's changed the way I see the world.
I'm 39 and he's taught me a lot. I could listen to his music all day, but also listen to a podcast of him talking for hours. Can't wait until he writes a book. He could. I have many of the same thoughts, but can't get them out like he can
I got you, old man. I, too, am an old man. I wish if I had a son, he would have someone been like Ren.
***heaviest of sighs***

I’m a RENegade! Glad I found your reaction. Thank you for appreciating REN as we do! Spreading love. Likes and Sub!
Wisdom, hard earned, and so well articulated. Ren is a Brilliant Diamond, and an even brighter shining role model.

That's the saddest part you can't afford the therapy. We don't pay for any of that in the UK.

This is redefining success. True success is when we ALL benefit. And that is what ren shows us here.
Ren is so wise beyond his years, you are loved Ren by all of us ❤

He’s such an incredible human.
The most important thing we have to give to one another is our humanity.

thank you again for your reaction, you help me stay grounded and focus on what's really important in my daily life. Just confirming what I thought and reminding me I am not alone.

I'm old and I love ren
Thank you.
Welcome!
Thanks
🙏
Tomorrow I will be going to my first session of therapy... it might not have happened if not for a rather throwaway line in the song Hi Ren..
I continued to be amazed how we can find motivation or inspiration in the most unanticipated places to take new paths in life. May you move forward with strength of heart
❤
❤❤❤❤
Someone private... has seen your post and thanks you.
From 🇮🇪 ❤
Wow
Ren has a beautiful soul, but I worry about the strain of carrying the weight of rising the tide. He's emotionally taken on a lot.
❤️🩹🤍🏴✌️
Community and connection to other humans is something I don't have. He is so very lucky to have found that connection.
Courageous suffering begets fierce joy
What do I do with that struggle that may seem strange, self seeking attention, supernatural, bizarre, mental... I have to ingest it and it turns my skin on fire until hopefully the embers lesson lessens. It doesn't go in that direction though, seems worse the more I try, but that's all I have is to try.
