    I don't know why Rachel's songs don't get that much attention. Her songs focus mostly on hope, resiliency and perseverance.

    To my Sam. I know you are in heaven. I only got to have you for a month. Just long enough to see who you are and help you until it was time for you to leave me. My honor, my privilege to be there with you. You made me stronger. You made my life better. Your light still shines through me. Thank you for everything you taught me about me and the world. I live moving forward because I know I will see you again. RIP my angel. You were wanted, and you are forever loved.

This world is truly a better place she Rachel came along. Her music is about finding the good and reaching out to help our fellow man and woman. Thank you, Rachel.

      Everyone has someone... Don't forget a lover/Significant other isn't the only form of connections necessary to actually live.
      With that being said, if you actually have NO ONE, then go out and find someone else who has no one and you two can be each others someone. It doesn't mean you have to find a significant other. Just someone looking for a connection. You may be surprised who needs you just as much as you desire them.

    This song means the absolute world to me. At the age of 27, I lost all of my eyesight from diabetic retinopathy he, becoming totally blind. Feeling like my entire world is over and I didn't know what to do, then my guide dog, Bryce joined me by my side. This is the song I play every day for him and I. Having Bryce by my side "makes me feel like I've opened my eyes again, the colors are golden and bright again," it is a better place because of Bryce, and I could not be more grateful! Thank you for putting into words my exact thoughts and feelings. Because of Bryce, I finally feel like I belong somewhere again! And what an amazing feeling that is…

      Cao Brian hi, no offense taken! Playing with the amount of technology that is available in the world these days, I have text to speech software installed on my computer, and using any I product, like my iPad or iPhone, there's a feature called voice over which allows all text to be read to me and I can type and dictate everything just like someone who is cited can

      Get a pet, if you can afford one. :) They help with the loneliness. As for human companions, keep trying and be your best self. It's better to be happy with yourself than become someone else for the sake of popularity/love. You can do it. :)

      well, you can try online dating or see if said girl (if she truly doesn't like you anymore) knows anyone. or friends. or if you're in school, sit yourself by someone new and attempt conversation or something; if you work, same sort of concept. it's all about connections and meeting new people. :)

    I'll tell the world, I'll sing a song
    It's a better place since you came along
    Since you came along
    Your touch is sunlight through the trees
    Your kisses are the ocean breeze
    Everything's alright when you're with me
    And I hold my favorite thing
    I hold the love that you bring
    But it feels like I've opened my eyes again
    And the colors are golden and bright again
    There's a song in my heart, I feel like I belong
    It's a better place since you came along
    It's a better place since you came along
    I see the whole world in your eyes
    It's like I've known you all my life
    We just feel so right
    So I pour my heart into your hands
    It's like you really understand
    You love the way I am
    And I hold my favorite thing
    I hold the happiness you bring
    But it feels like I've opened my eyes again
    And the colors are golden and bright again
    And the sun paints the skies and the wind sings our song
    It's a better place since you came along
    It's a better place since you came along
    Now I'm alright
    Now I'm alright
    Everything's alright
    'Cause it feels like I've opened my eyes again
    And the colors are golden and bright again
    There's a song in my heart, I feel like I belong
    It's a better place since you came along
    It's a better place since you came along

But I can tell you one thing, life goes on and while I may still miss him, I have learnt to cope and recovered completely which I’m SURE you will to. I’m so sorry for your loss. I will take time.🤗😸

      I hope today finds you doing even just a little better, B.V. I've been on that roller coaster of emotion twice with pets in the past. I do hope you're doing better. I find myself having one of those emotional days, as I've not been able to see family during this pandemic. Just sending out a little encouragement to random people seems to help me a bit on rough days lately. I'm not looking for anything, just want to send some encouragement to others right now. Chin up, and remember the good times you had with your cat :)

He’s my world, and he’s my Best Friend, I dread the day in the hopefully late future. I’ve never had anything so incredibly happy, and silly in my life. My friends dog died of kidney failure a few months ago, they have a new puppy who is a ball of energy. My puppy is 8 months today, June 1st. In this time of darkness, we all need a little bit of love. R.I.P George Floyd, and others who have lost their lives, their loved ones lives, or even our furry friends.

    Rachel Platten, I get so emotional whenever I watch this video. All you have to do is sing with your angelic voice, and my emotional walls just crumble. Add on the fact that you had people listen to this at a studio, no matter if they were gay, interracial, mother/son, mother/daughter, or owner and dog, you made this entire thing just... absolutely beautiful. Thank you for making this wonderful song and video. 😭😁

      Same for me, I have to get a box of tissues every time I play it. It's so moving and beautiful that I'd like it to be played at my funeral. It's a nice reminder that most everyone who stands by you until the end likely made the world a better place for you, just as you did for others, regardless of race, gender, religion, etc..

      I want to look into the eyes of my wife as we have our first dance together while this song is playing. This song has such a deeeeeep meaning to me and harkins back to memories of a very dear friend of mine who was taken from this world way too soon a year before this video was posted... I would give anything to be able to see her again, to hear her call me Toddster just one more time... She was one of my most favorite people in the whole world... I want to look down into my future wife's eyes, our foreheads pressing together, seeing her smile up at me as we slowly sway to and fro to this wonderful tear-jerker of a song and I know I'm going to cry because I know I will have found my Better Place 😭❤

    I have recently become a big fan of Miss Platten. This song brings tears to my eyes every time I watch the video. When you hit 70, you seem to cry a little easier. The little girl holding her mom's hand while looking into her eyes, blew me away. . I think Rachel needs t write an anthem for men, kind of like fight song for women. Maybe something like, " Old men are real cool. They are an old fool, we love our old school..." LOL

Then our little bundle of joy came, our daughter, and every lyrics fit perfectly. I used to play this song when she was still in my womb and she would instantly calm down and settle inside me. Maybe it's just a conincidence but even after she's born, I'm still playing this song to her and it seems like she can remember. She will instantly calm down and sleep on my arms🥰. Now, I can't finish this song without having to cry because it has a whole new meaning into it.

    I met my girlfriend coming off a highly emotionally abusive relationship. My ex was an alcoholic and even prior to that had a personality disorder. I had gotten used to a way of being where I felt ashamed of liking the things I liked, where I genuinely felt like I didn't deserve love. Men can be abused and emotional abuse is horrific. I got out of that relationship and years passed before I met the girl I'm with now. The difference is night and day and I remember hearing this song a few months after we got together. For me it really is true, this world is a better place with her in it. She's shown me what a healthy relationship is and loves me for all my nerdy/geeky/whacky self. This song totally encapsulates what that transition felt like for me. Thank you for this song.

      I have BPD. There are rumors about ppl like me. But it doesn’t make me a bad person. I struggle emotionally and mentally and I’ve been through some of the roughest patches in my life, and I don’t blame anybody, but then me, and other BPD ppl shouldn’t be blamed either. BPD is a disorder, not a choice. I’m working on improving myself and feeling better, I’m truly grateful for my boyfriend to always supporting me through the worst days, and not only laughing with me, but also crying with me, to this very day. When you love somebody you dont make excuses and you would be with the person all the way. Love doesn’t know obstacles. If you truly love somebody, you wouldn’t call them “abusive”. You would see the love behind their anger, and fear through their arrogance mask because you do have a choice to. It’s easy to blame ppl, put all the weight on them and/or leave them but try and stay with ppl through their worst effing times! You will see that they just need love, support and understanding, and that can help them heal and be better partners. I wasn’t always my greatest, but my boyfriend loves me and chooses to walk the path with me no matter what. I’ll always be grateful and love him for that, and for being himself, because the best person you can be is yourself. I’m not justifying myself; I’m just saying BPD can be living hell for the ppl who are diagnosed with it, too. Another difficult thing is that disorders are not diseases. They cannot be cured. There has been researching about BPD but no cure was still found. So think this through before just branding ppl with titles and judgments.

      @@elinatuktarova6725 I recognize that people with BPD are suffering as well and my heart goes out to them.

No one is morally obligated to stay with an abuser nor are they committing some kind of sin by leaving them.

    "I see the whole world in your eyes

    The message of this song is very profound, and to actually expirience this feeling through connecting with others as friends, love partners, or just creating bonds and moments. It's changes people for good, hopefully we all get to expirience this at least once in our lifetime and not endure the destructive energy as we often see it around us!

    Four years ago I’d listen to this song and enjoy it, now, that my brother is nearly three and I get to listen to it all over again I can’t help myself but cry. I’m so lucky to have his love, he’s my absolute favorite person. I’m sure our love is beyond this life, it’s beyond anything I’ve ever felt, and I know it is evergreen! This song means my brother to me ❤️❤️

      I am laughing because of this Chisolum, you commented about her teeth, not her music. This isn't meant to offend.
