    I have never wished I could sit down and have a discussion with a reactor so much in my life. I’m only going to talk about the “questioning God” part even though I have so many thoughts on other things you discussed. I believe you are a parent? I was taught to view God as a father. If one of your children was hurting and crawled in your lap asking why they have to hurt I don’t believe you would look at it as a disrespectful questioning of your authority or parenting. They ask because they trust you with their pain and believe that you have the ability to lead them forward. Also, God already knows you have questions. As long as you aren’t approaching it with disrespect in your heart I don’t view it as wrong. I view it as desperately needing your daddy. Also I was taught to watch out for wanting to have good character or do right only because you fear God’s vengeance. You want to do it because you love Him and you know He loves you and wants what is best for you. I found living in fear of my creator to be restrictive to my growth as a person on earth and a child of God. Just my two cents on that subject. Loved this reaction as always. Stay real and Bless Your Life my friend ❤

    Wow, what an incredible sunset. Thank you for sharing such a beautiful backdrop.
    I use to be an over thinker. I’ve done a lot of work on learning how to be more present. Just coincidentally I listen to an old podcast with a woman who defected from North Korea literally listen to it this morning. She mentioned how in North Korea they don’t think for themselves. Everything is decided for you. She said the hardest thing she had to learn after she escaped was how to think for herself. I felt really grateful to have the freedom to think. So many times in the past I just wanted to shut off my thoughts. Listening to her gave me a whole other perspective. Great reaction. Thank you

    One of the things that attracts me to Ren is his use of language … mixing the words between the street and proper … Ren is an old soul, but very fresh and new… he gathers things from everywhere and everyone and adds his unique perspective… he reminds me a lot of my other favourite artist the late David Bowie.. he was also a great collector and genre bender with a very interesting way of wording things.. Thank you my friend… I appreciate your effort’s tremendously and the scenery and things were a nice touch. ❤

    Fantastic reaction, my friend! I can relate to this song so much. As far as questioning god, I think it's healthy. Now, I am not a religious person, so what I have to say, you can take it or leave it. Questioning things is how we learn. It's how we become better people. It's how we move forward. A curious mind is beautiful. 💛💛💛

    the constant conscious questioning of my conscience is so frequent the more I see and live with the in real time deterioration of my moms losing battle with schizophrenia and her absolute denial that there is anything wrong. Her delusions make me wanna shake a Christmas tree in frustration. I feel the need to "audit" my awareness of reality and conscious decision making is truly made on facts and verifiable information because that crazy women sees none of her crazy. I fear being blind to it.

    Great reaction! I think when it comes to music like this, what you get out of it at the time is what's important. Not about right or wrong, interpretation matters most. Your next one should be Ren's Dear God. I don't believe God will strike me or anyone else for questioning things or even for not believing. About Insomnia, Ren has been recently struggling with it since he left Canada as he also quit smoking the devils lettuce. He talks about it towards the end of this clip. ruclips.net/video/XWTt4WJY2fY/видео.htmlsi=Jo2E0lIGMmEI3K_k

    Ren was unable to get any real sleep for the best part of 7 years! Largely duto being in constant, unrelenting, 24 hour, excruciating, chronic pain. Which, in turn meant he had zero energy to do anything at all. He couldn't socialise, read, watch tv or films. He just lay there, totally and utterly exhausted, in never-ending pain.

I too been self medicating with cannabis since teenage years and just recently stopped (to catch up on my emotional development lol and also since they messed up the plant with all this excessive THC-levels). Now I take magnesium and omega 3 (to slow down the mind - also very helpful) and it changed my life for the better. You might need to test your way with the magnesium - there are different oxides and doses and it could mess with your stomach a little before you find the right one for you.
