      This is nice, but i had a personal connection with the first version, you did not have to make the video private. Some of these videos we have saved and visit every so often just to get our lives back together again when things become difficult, making the videos private takes that away from us, that relatability i had with the first version is gone. It really helps me alot when i am down, please bring it back.

    Ahhhh
    This make me want to write about
    “The memory of me”
    Now I am old and grey,
    Had fair share of events of life
    Through thick and thin
    Tasting joy and happiness
    Shocking betrayals of trust
    Pitching pain and agony
    Broken hearts many times
    But still survived and still here
    Now I just want to count goodness
    And precious gift of life
    Highest thrill was 72 birthday on the Mt. Everest base camp
    Brave enough to travel solo any time and any place
    It is my reward from all there was
    That I had to endure
    So I count my blessings

    Dear self,
    You are not early nor late,
    You are right on time,
    You are on the right track in your life,
    You are not in a race,
    You are in your own pace,
    Let them talk,
    Let them mock,
    Let them assume what is not,
    Do not worry yourself,
    Do not compare yourself,
    They have their own path,
    And so are you,
    Do not let yourself astray,
    Pray and have faith,
    Things will be okay.

    Personally, I relate to the eternal age of sultry and youthful lovers! In my soul, childhood has not gone away and nostalgia for the past has filled my whole being.... No matter how hard fate is with its tests of strength, one should live life with dignity. Shakespeare is right. Life resembles a theater, a game, and people are actors. Any game can change the rules. We should not forget about it. I believe in miracles in real life and dream of a fairy-tale future near the person I love with all my heart and soul. So far have only experienced unrequited feelings. I hope that the last love will be mutual.

      Am 36 now, I was 22 when I got heartbroken by love, my advice is if one isn't heartbroken, they will never understand love or life. Don't be afraid to get hurt. Don't waste that precious first love, nothing feels better after it except the pain of being broken. Being heartbroken feels better in my experience. U become a philosopher, a poet, a musician, thinker. It unlocks your mind.

      @@kalsulivani5791 I went through my first breakup last year just before the COVID pandemic in the U.K., she was a Chinese student here and we were crazy about each other. I was utterly heartbroken when we separated but then found poetry and writing in my diary everyday. My life has progressed, but now I think even in heartbreak and death... life still has it’s beautiful moments and beautiful things can manifest themselves in chaos.
