      I'm so sorry to hear about what you're going through, but I'm really glad that the stories help you find some comfort and relaxation. It’s amazing how stories from the past can offer a bit of peace when life feels tough. How do you feel about using these stories to reflect on strength or resilience? Do any of them remind you of a time or person who inspired you to keep going?

    The dog stories warmed my heart. Back in 2019 I worked as a flight nurse in Kayenta, AZ on the Navajo Nation. We responded to a horrible car accident in Monument Valley. It was very sad. Bystanders were trying to catch a black Dog named Obi, who ran away. His owner was transported by ground, 40 miles away to a small IHS hospital. A week later Obi showed up at a junkyard by the hospital, where is owners car was located. That amazing pup traveled through the unforgiving Arizona desert for 40 miles to track his owners. Owner and dog were eventually reunited! It was a heartwarming ending to a terrible accident. Yall can google it!

      It is not an insult to tell someone their work helps you to relax and go to sleep...it is basically like a bedtime story and his voice is soothing. All he cares about is that people ENJOY his work, no matter if they sit on the edges of their seats or use it for relaxing at bedtime.

    • @Annie_Annie__

      Sometimes I tune out if I’m working on a project while listening because his voice is such a lovely background hum that isn’t overly distracting.
      But that just means I get to rewind several minutes back and re-listen to the part I tuned out on.
      I’m pretty sure that when I listen to some parts multiple times, it just increases his watch time by that little bit, lol.

      It's so true that life often doesn't give us a second chance, and yet sometimes we do get a rare opportunity to make things right. I think it's easy to get caught up in fear of failure or regret, but the idea of taking a chance can be so freeing. What do you think holds us back the most from seizing those moments when they do come around? Does it take something extraordinary to push us into action, or is it more about the small steps we choose each day?

    Dear Mr. Brodie as I ready for bed, I tune into your weekly video to hear your wonderful stories. Your excellent Scots brogue takes me back to my 16th century 18th Grandfather, John Morrison of Lewis Island off the West coast of Scotland. Through you I can imagine what he looked and sounded like! He must have prospered in whatever business he had because at one time he owned Dairsie Castle and lost it to hs creditors. Thank you for bringing me so much pleasure in my old age. I will be 87 years young next November.

    The segment about the dogs illustrates well that we do not deserve them. One was murdered by a human, another one abused, third lost and obviously not looked for.

      1st is pure Victorian fiction, that us Welsh well know was imagined to bring in tourist £££s. The story is attributed to a local hotelier & really would a medieval prince leave his son & heir alone? where were the guards + servants + women? They know the year this story appeared 19C, though a good tale!! Bye & good luck.

    Good evening, Paul. I'm more of a cat person, but absolutely loved your "Tales About Tails" segment. Heartwarming and always lovely to hear good news for a change, instead of the typical doom and gloom that is the present state of our planet. Occasionally, I see a heroic kitty or bird story(those are fun as well 😺). Thx for another video and keep up the good work, Paul!
