Agree! I wonder if he meant to make such an amazing fish pun when he said "it's kind of a fluke"? Ha ha. Either way, dude seems like such a sweetheart, and it's great he's making a business from his passion 🙂👍.
He’s a dude who just found something that gave him zen and that’s what we all want for ourselves. Love what you spend your life doing because if you don’t enjoy your life, what’s the points ?
I think Thoraya's way of filming makes everyone look SO beautiful. Every little freckle and line tells a story about the person she's interviewing. It's so lovely to kinda study their face and wonder what they've seen throughout their life.
i swear i just wanted to ask how she finds all these gorgeous people. Actually its the beauty of vulnerability. of people opening up anout themselves. thats what makes us human and so beautiful!
It's always interesting hearing stories from random people I'll probably never meet. Although the world can be a cruel place, Humanity is still so beautiful.
The Woman who says poeple call her "naive" made me tear up. You can tell she's been through a lot. Her eyes tell a story. Hope she is doing good. Lots of love for her
I am so incredibly happy for the gentleman that found his bliss cleaning fish tanks. What an absolute dream to fall into your passion by SHOWING compassion. Happy for that guy!
"I don't want to save people; I want people to save themselves. Wow. As someone who volunteers tutoring marginalized kids, I feel like it's my word even when I'm not doing a lot. ❤
I relate to the girl who said "people take deer-in-headlights as naive". I read a lot, I think a lot, and I can read people well. I wouldn't trade any of it for social acceptance or for the ability to fit in. I heard a quote once: "The hardest thing for a writer's wife to understand is that when he's staring out the window - he's working." Don't dismiss the quiet wallflowers.They're observing and processing. They're likely some of the more interesting people you will talk to....if you can get them talking. 🙂
@@EternalGalaxies Yes but then the quote would have been different - and the point missed. I actually paused before including that - thinking "how many people are going to take issue with the fact that it's a man thinking and a woman not understanding." But, the quote was what it was - and the point is still a valid one. 🙂
@@Misana It's an obscure reference: I heard it in an interview with Neil Peart - the drummer for the band Rush. He was quoting someone else. I just looked it up and found this: "What no wife of a writer can ever understand, no matter if she lives with him for twenty years, is that a writer is working when he's staring out the window." - Burton Rascoe I think I like Neils version better - with the "he's working" part almost like a punchline. Hope that helps.
love the fish tank guy! really reminds you that you can literally do ANYTHING like there are millions of jobs out there that you've never even heard of
The girl that said people thinking she's naive... I can relate. I really pay attention to people and can read them well. They also think just because I'm helpful and kind, that that is a weakness and they can take advantage of me. Demand respect from people!
I feel this, I really do. People see my kindness and patience as something to take and run with but know that I actively chose and fought myself to be kind and patient through every last painful and harsh event that I have gone through. My kindness and patience are the few things I hold above anything else, because being cold and cruel would only turn me into the people and things that wanted me to be just like them, just so I could be miserable like them. It's okay to feel anger, it's okay to feel sadness, it's okay to feel resentment towards those that hurt or harmed you, but never lose sight of the kindness and patience you possess. That is the one thing others will envy you for that they don't have and will try and do whatever they can to bring you down to their level. As the saying goes, "Misery loves company." Be mindful of that, and as I always say, things will even out as they go along, be patient and you'll see to it that it does.
@smol7224 🌿🌷🌿Beautiful comment. I have the same philosophy... WHY would I act like the person who just dumped so much negativity? Then I would be acting just like them... and I AM NOT THEM. I send light & love to them. I get out of their way... physically & emotionally... so I don't have to experience their crap. 🌿🌷🌿
The fish tank guy made me tear up… I did not expect that and it was as if the world was good and wholesome for a few seconds… bless him and people like him who care for underrated living beings ❤️🩹
If you look at me-nice house,fancy cars, corporate career-you wouldn’t guess that I’m a battered woman who’s divorcing a very abusive man. Neighbors,friends & even some family think that we’re the perfect couple.
You made a brave decision to leave an abusive relationship, and I know that you are a strong woman. I wish you all the best in the future, and I am sorry you had to go through this.
🌿🌷🌿 Thank you, Thank you, for leaving your comment. ❤ Our minds, spirit & Selves are our super powers. ❤People need to see that others, like you, use their personal power to move away & move on. ❤ Sending best wishes & Light & Love your way. 🌿🌷🌿
True, and they do not deserve being forced into a small prison, even if it is a really well-kept and clean one. If you love fish please do not keep them as pets.❤
@@koellekind As a marine biology student I can assure you that keeping fish as pets can be done very well. Fish will be happy if all their natural needs are met, such as ample space, stimulation, hideouts, adequate nutrition, scavenging hunting and to some extent possibility to mate. The fish will not feel trapped or sad if all these needs are met. I can agree that the aquarium industry can be very disgusting and harmful which is why I encourage people to buy from local, small scale breeders. But fish can most definitely be kept successfully as pets with enough knowledge and interest. I'd say you have a bigger possibility of giving fish a happy and fulfilling life in an adequate habitat than doing so for a dog or a cat
@@elixs5380You definitely know your stuff! 👏💯 I wish everyone was as good and knowledgeable as you, especially before owning fish.💙🐠🐟🩵 P.S. There’s this fish girl on RUclips (if I can remember and find her I’ll come back and comment her profile name here). Anyway, she rescues fish. I’ve seen her go to pet stores and she’ll buy the fish that are knocking on death’s door… Then she brings them home and nurses them back to health. She treats their water with the right PH/acidity, salts, and chemicals, identifies and treats their health issues, gives them adequate tanks with everything you described, all their needs and comforts are met. Anyway, it’s so incredible to see these little fish do a 180! I’m talking about one fish was floating upside down and he was white/grey (when he was supposed to be vibrant orange. They had him in the wrong water at the store… slowly and painfully killing him 🤬🥺) and she somehow nursed that fish back to health! She’s awesome. Plus she teaches us while posting the videos. It’s great to gain the knowledge. Cheers, to all the animal lovers!🐾🌎🥂
This was so surprisingly positive!! Everyone seemed so proud and self-confident about their answers. Each person showed great growth and I appreciated that so much!!!!
I love these types of videos. They remind me that not all people are monsters and some are just actually human beings trying to live a normal life or trying to make a better person of themselves. Beautiful souls.
“I want people to be able to save themselves” So beautiful, true, and deep. Loved that. I feel like these days people want to be saved by others, but you are the only one who can truly save yourself. Not someone else.
To that woman who helps victims of crime you'll probably never see this but you are amazing sheca t afford some things in her own life but she'll go out to help others truly beautiful ❤
These are always my favorites of yours to watch. I feel like a lot of people don’t give time to know someone and just end up judging them from their appearance. Everyone here is far too complex to just judge by their cover, everyone has a story, and personally, your videos have made me truly intrigued by the people around me. Thank you for the work you do.
If you met me you wouldn't believe that I worked almost two decades with inmates and parolees, as a counselor. I really identified with the "naive" girl and the woman who wanted people "to save themselves". Service is the glue that holds Community together. If you don't do it, who will?
To the FOREST FIRE dude, i assure you that mother nature has forgiven you, you were just a child, forgive that child. and to the TANK CLEANER...so great to find someone that loves fish, you are right there isnt many of them,
Hi guys. Sorry for this unnecessary comment but I've just been feeling my lowest especially today. If anyone else is struggling, I want you to know I'm down there with you even though I can't be the one to save you or save myself.. I feel so withered and so out of place. I don't know how to find myself again if I ever even had 'self' to begin with.. I wish noone else felt this alone and so inadequate as I did. It's truly a isolating feeling in this vast world.
Sorry to hear that you're struggling. I wish you love, healing, & the energy to pull yourself out of this low you're experiencing. If I can offer 1 tip that helped me, it would be to start going on daily walks. Nature is so healing and you can start with just getting 10 minutes of Sun a day and work up from there.
Same! But you are never truly alone in this vast world, and even though you may feel like you are, someone, somewhere, is feeling the same way that you are. I'm grateful that you chose to reach out, if only in the comment section of Thoraya's video. I've had many dark days, of feeling alone, too. It helps to know that we aren't alone. You are amazing and beautiful and wonderful! You are wanted and needed. You are worthy of love, kindness, respect, and all of the good things and great people in this world! Like another person said in their beautiful comment, "go for a walk in nature" There is beauty all around us. We just have to look for it. Be well and be blessed!
Trust man I've been through it of the same thing and this is what makes life fun and worth living cos of the amazing journeys we go through even if it isn't nice and the same as others
Shoutout to the community resource worker for naming a challenge that some many of us our shamed into not admitting or go into debt to avoid. We need you! So many narcissist personalities are in recovery or community work for all the wrong reasons. So nice to hear someone that isn’t a “hero” but realistically wants to support others while humbling admitting you need the same services. This work deserves better pay!
There's nothing i hate more than people who start fires in forests... but you got to have respect for a person who has put action (not just words) into redeeming himself. Keep going! Also the fish guy - love that! You're right, fish deserve to have a nice home too. Thats cool man.
I connect with 0:53, 2:22, and 4:25 my mother had me at 15 still to this day she don't know who my father is. That's what people don't know about me.🤷🏾
I love the way she is able to speak highly of herself and be confident knowing others see her as naive. Beautiful soul ❤ I bet people say & do the most around her thinkn she doesn't understand just imagine others think she has a look of naivety to where she see true colors of so many cause they suspect she isn't aware. Wow
The woman in social services who also uses services - I get it. I'm homeless now but was a social worker who worked with homeless women. It's an odd experience to be on both sides of the fence, esp bc a lot of people demonize the homeless.
I’m just stumbling on this video and reading your comment. I know it’s been a year, but just checking on you to see how you’re doing. I sure hope things are looking up for you 🫶🏼
I had an abortion at 18. I was into heavy drugs from 13 to 18. I was into the punk lifestyle. Now im an accountant who doesnt even drink. People think im sweet and innocent
When ever I see a big crowd of people sometimes I kinda just think to myself how amazing it is that every single one of them has had there ups and downs worrys happy times etc, its interesting how in your own mind you can get sometimes and it feels great to be able to realize that sometimes
I don't get shocked to learn anything about people. Everyone has amazing stories and it's just a matter of asking and being open to listening. What I don't understand is how some can be cruel or close-minded to people without truly knowing anything about them and just based on their appearance.
Very interesting….I’ve always been fascinated by the fact that every single person has something surprising about them you would never guess by looking at them. Everyone has a secret, uniquely beautiful story.
I remember crying when my goldfish died. I called him "Fishy". I didnt flush him down the toilet, I brought him to a little stream nearby and let him float to his heavenly place.
i love people who love their job, u can really see the fish tank man have a really good life he ever lived and always grateful for it. love ur energy man keep up the good work
The guy who is making amends for the forest fires.. You can see the remorse in his eyes. So great he is working to set things right and learn from his childhood mistakes.
That person who said bc they space out and look like a deer in the headlights so people think they’re naive…. I resonate with everything that they said
As always the extended cut for this episode is on my Patreon! If you're interested, here's the link: www.patreon.com/thoraya Your support on there will help me make episodes like this more often!
The final woman made me smile. Her energy is so genuine and infectious! And a beautiful reminder that we are all children of the world. Russian, Ukrainian, Chinese, American, Canadian.... we are human first and foremost ❤
Interesting question to pose, Thoraya. I often listen to Utube in the background whilst doing other things, but with these I like to give them 100% of my attention, so I can take in the lovely faces of the contributors. People are so sweet, and so impressive.
Very moved by the first 2 gentlemen, and the second young woman, I relate - my childhood was intense and I recognize red flags in people incredibly quickly, love the self-awareness of sports guy, much respect for the multi-lingual guy, bravo for weight loss guy,
2:22 i realate to her so much. People think I'm a little clutzy or airheaded. I just process things differently. I'm creative, unique, and intelligent. I'm very good at understanding and reading people because of my life challanges. Unfortunately that skill doesn't help when a girl flirts with me. either...
Bob's a great Soul. He receives what he puts out. Animals are beautiful and vibrate Love at frequencies that are difficult to perceive; they know our intentions and bless us at all times. Also, eyes truly are a window to the Soul. Many who share themselves through these videos have such bright Light in their eyes.
To anyone struggling, I feel you, it will get better, we are all brothers and sisters, be kind to each other!!! Don’t take the kindness of others as weakness. And if you are unhappy, leave

I love the dude that loved cleaning fish tanks. He has an incredible vibe
His eyes are incredible
@@bellagray8837 Im wondering if maybe he was a fish in a former life, because of those eyes!!!😃
Agree! I wonder if he meant to make such an amazing fish pun when he said "it's kind of a fluke"? Ha ha. Either way, dude seems like such a sweetheart, and it's great he's making a business from his passion 🙂👍.
He’s a dude who just found something that gave him zen and that’s what we all want for ourselves. Love what you spend your life doing because if you don’t enjoy your life, what’s the points ?
I think Thoraya's way of filming makes everyone look SO beautiful. Every little freckle and line tells a story about the person she's interviewing.
It's so lovely to kinda study their face and wonder what they've seen throughout their life.
Beautifully written❤️And true
I agree ❤
Hard agree. Each vid gives such colour and humanity to a complete stranger, it's such compelling viewing.
i swear i just wanted to ask how she finds all these gorgeous people. Actually its the beauty of vulnerability. of people opening up anout themselves. thats what makes us human and so beautiful!
So true ❤
Fish are ver overlooked and their suffering is not only ignored, its accepted. Bless you, Bob.
His part was so frickin' wholesome, I had so smile for the whole scene
He's one of a kind🤩
He was so pretty and a pure soul 😭 I had 5-6 fishes and I always strive to keep them alive but through experience I know what not to do.
Vegan for the voiceless 💚
👏
Lesson: everyone has a story. And don’t judge a book by its cover ❤
Facts ❤
💯
Absolutely
Well said! We all need to open our hearts to our fellow humans because most people are relatable and have a kind soul.
If the story is about how someone is trying to make up for setting fires...that book done been burned
It's always interesting hearing stories from random people I'll probably never meet. Although the world can be a cruel place, Humanity is still so beautiful.
It’s our differences that brings beauty. The world would be pretty mundane if we were all the same
Absolutely, yes. The media wants to feed us filth, but there are plenty of beautiful people. We just need to pay attention.
People you never meet seem to care more in my experience imagine if you could choose your own family Lol
And so much more powerful❤
The Woman who says poeple call her "naive" made me tear up. You can tell she's been through a lot. Her eyes tell a story. Hope she is doing good. Lots of love for her
Yeh I paused on her face at the end like a reflex, her eyes and that smile ooze history.
no deer is naive even in headlights.
I felt for her too. Wish her the best.
for real! i love her and i don’t even know them, i can tell she’s a very kind and caring person 🫶🏻
She was so relatable for me
The woman who has six grandchildren glows. I love the energy she emits through the screen.
Regards to the woman that helps victims of crime: 'those who don't have much, give the most'
it is not a shame, it is noble! ✊
She spoke to me in this video. I've been where she's been
I really am praying she changes lives xoxo
Agreed
Yes, that cool. Working both
I am so incredibly happy for the gentleman that found his bliss cleaning fish tanks. What an absolute dream to fall into your passion by SHOWING compassion. Happy for that guy!
He’s adorable omgosh

Pretty much how I’ve felt my entire life
"people look at me and think that i'm naive, but i've been through a lot and i notice patterns that people wouldn't think i would think."
Bob wanting to give fish a clean home is so wholesome
I liked that one, this question makes me think on it

You all say that yet eat fish lol

As an aquarist with 6 tanks and 10+ years in the hobby bobs fish services made me very happy. Fish are amazing animals!

I also like the video's where they have to read another perons' secret. Very humbling.
Bob was such a sweetheart. Thank you for caring so deeply about fish. They are sentient too 💙
The veteran girl indeed people will not know and the guy from Norway accent is perfect
We love bob cares alot for fish ❤
“I want people to be able to save themselves”
So beautiful, true, and deep. Loved that. I feel like these days people want to be saved by others, but you are the only one who can truly save yourself. Not someone else.

It does for me too, when guys flirt. I like some of them back but I don't tell them
The fish tank guy is awesome! I love that he wants fish to be happy and healthy 😊
The fish guy was so unexpectedly inspirational. Respect
The girl who is seen as a deer in headlights seems like she might be a Highly Sensitive Person.

that dude that started the forrest fires will probably never be able to make up for the net loss of what he did as a kid, thats super sad.
Shoutout to the community resource worker for naming a challenge that some many of us our shamed into not admitting or go into debt to avoid. We need you! So many narcissist personalities are in recovery or community work for all the wrong reasons. So nice to hear someone that isn’t a “hero” but realistically wants to support others while humbling admitting you need the same services. This work deserves better pay!
Thoraya videos makes me fall in love with humanity over and over again
🌿🌷🌿 Yes... same here. 🎯
There's nothing i hate more than people who start fires in forests... but you got to have respect for a person who has put action (not just words) into redeeming himself. Keep going!
Also the fish guy - love that! You're right, fish deserve to have a nice home too. Thats cool man.
The second woman seems very sweet!! Helping other people to save themselves is awesome!! ❤
I would hire Bob in a heart beat! I can feel his love for the fish thru his energy. That’s the kind of love you want put into your pets. ❤
The third girl explaining how her brain works, and how she can read people so well because of trauma resonates so much with me. I love this videos
I hate how people treat one another...How we are so divided by money ,looks...How we struggle to be kind ...
I really liked this! I am always amazed at how you can get folks to open up so completely.
This video made me realize that there’s still good people in the world.
I like that that guy loves cleaning fish tanks. I agree, they need a fresh tank. Also that lady that had a child at 15 woweee!!!
I connect with 0:53, 2:22, and 4:25 my mother had me at 15 still to this day she don't know who my father is. That's what people don't know about me.🤷🏾
These people all seem so sweet and genuine and it really demonstrates how everyone has a story to tell.
I love the way she is able to speak highly of herself and be confident knowing others see her as naive. Beautiful soul ❤ I bet people say & do the most around her thinkn she doesn't understand just imagine others think she has a look of naivety to where she see true colors of so many cause they suspect she isn't aware. Wow
The woman in social services who also uses services - I get it. I'm homeless now but was a social worker who worked with homeless women. It's an odd experience to be on both sides of the fence, esp bc a lot of people demonize the homeless.
You'd 🤔 there would be somewhere she could get some decent clothes. Best to her.
I’m just stumbling on this video and reading your comment. I know it’s been a year, but just checking on you to see how you’re doing. I sure hope things are looking up for you 🫶🏼
@@WGrind0687 gosh, thanks so much. And no, things aren't better since I made the comment... but I've learned a lot and continue to learn a lot.
Love this concept. Nice to have the variety of how heavy the topics are, this was perfect for today. ❤
I had an abortion at 18. I was into heavy drugs from 13 to 18. I was into the punk lifestyle. Now im an accountant who doesnt even drink. People think im sweet and innocent
"I'm not trying to save people, I want people to save themselves" is deep
When ever I see a big crowd of people sometimes I kinda just think to myself how amazing it is that every single one of them has had there ups and downs worrys happy times etc, its interesting how in your own mind you can get sometimes and it feels great to be able to realize that sometimes
I don't get shocked to learn anything about people. Everyone has amazing stories and it's just a matter of asking and being open to listening.
What I don't understand is how some can be cruel or close-minded to people without truly knowing anything about them and just based on their appearance.
Very interesting….I’ve always been fascinated by the fact that every single person has something surprising about them you would never guess by looking at them. Everyone has a secret, uniquely beautiful story.
I remember crying when my goldfish died. I called him "Fishy". I didnt flush him down the toilet, I brought him to a little stream nearby and let him float to his heavenly place.
I absolutely love this channel. I love seeing real people being themselves
The fish tank guy was my fav❤🐡🐠🐟
Me too! 🙋🏻♀️
💙🐟🐠🩵
My favorite thing about this channel is you learn not to judge a book by it's cover.
i love people who love their job, u can really see the fish tank man have a really good life he ever lived and always grateful for it. love ur energy man keep up the good work
the fish tank reply was beautiful.
The guy who is making amends for the forest fires.. You can see the remorse in his eyes. So great he is working to set things right and learn from his childhood mistakes.
These videos are so beautifully human!!🌍💖
That person who said bc they space out and look like a deer in the headlights so people think they’re naive…. I resonate with everything that they said

Yess sis! Keep it up I'm rootin for you!
@thorayaa great video! It was cool to be apart of it. Remember never to trust them spiders!
The final woman made me smile. Her energy is so genuine and infectious! And a beautiful reminder that we are all children of the world. Russian, Ukrainian, Chinese, American, Canadian.... we are human first and foremost ❤
Interesting question to pose, Thoraya. I often listen to Utube in the background whilst doing other things, but with these I like to give them 100% of my attention, so I can take in the lovely faces of the contributors. People are so sweet, and so impressive.
"Easier to blend in, than to stand out"... so true
Very moved by the first 2 gentlemen, and the second young woman, I relate - my childhood was intense and I recognize red flags in people incredibly quickly, love the self-awareness of sports guy, much respect for the multi-lingual guy, bravo for weight loss guy,
Love the fish tank guy! 😂
He’s great!
protect that man advocating for pet fish
The fish tank guy, so wholesome and such a needed role!! ☺️
2:22 i realate to her so much. People think I'm a little clutzy or airheaded. I just process things differently. I'm creative, unique, and intelligent. I'm very good at understanding and reading people because of my life challanges. Unfortunately that skill doesn't help when a girl flirts with me. either...
Its easier to blend in than stand out...that got me
Thank you for taking the time to capture the beauty of people. ❤️
Love these Thorayah. Keep it up. Much love
Please can someone tell the second guy to forgive himself ~ he's doing more than enough to right his childhood mistakes... more than most would do...
This videos might be the only thing restoring my faith in humanity
aww the fish guy is so cute
I've always wanted fish tank full of fish
Fish tank guy was wholesome, dude who saved 3 lives is just like my dad's story! Absolutely awesome how unique people are.
Bob's a great Soul. He receives what he puts out. Animals are beautiful and vibrate Love at frequencies that are difficult to perceive; they know our intentions and bless us at all times.
Also, eyes truly are a window to the Soul. Many who share themselves through these videos have such bright Light in their eyes.
To anyone struggling, I feel you, it will get better, we are all brothers and sisters, be kind to each other!!! Don’t take the kindness of others as weakness. And if you are unhappy, leave
The last lady is a LEGEND. Kinda goals too :P
We need more of these, I love this topic ❤
