So true. Animals are so smart. They sleep when sleepy. Feed/hunt when hungry etc. we are the only species that force work and stress. People are forced to work when they are sick or extremely tired and we think this is normal, this is why everyone is depressed or overtly anxious.
This is why we have to live simple and modest lives. Because part of that stress is creating huge amount of debt that we have created. No one is holding a gun to our heads. We create huge debt to have a lavish life. Then we have to work two, three jobs to pay off this debt that we have created. We. No one else. So we have to take responsibility and stay out of debt and live simple and with less stress. Therefore being more like nature.
I was raised a world traveler & the people who raised me taught me that life is about enjoying the moment & having a good heart. I've lived my entire life in this manner & the world has always tried to break my spirit. I NEED to get back to nature..... It was the only time I was TRULY happy
Very true Timothy. I'm 63 but had problems with feeling the need to be 'productive' etc. until the last few years. Then, quite quickly, those feelings just went away. Now I can be completely idle much of the time without feeling at all guilty, it's very nice, much more relaxing. As you say, I think a lot of it came from needing to worry about surviving.
@@TimothyWard Watching your video, you're great putting this into words. I explored a canyon in germany. Very amazing. Alone. No one around. Personal experience. That's a secret canyon. It's giant. It goes way way back. Has endless forest and places to hide and secret places.
@@rs5570 lucky enough to be able to live a monk type simple life off savings for the present. I still felt the need to be productive anyway though until quite recently when I gradually realised none of us have to do anything but exist, just be.
Spot on, Tim. I've figured the same out in this life. We don't have to do anything. It doesn't matter. You will be forgotten. Life goes on. All this stuff that we have to accomplish some thing is in our heads. It's a delusion. It's all merely ego. That were important. Money, no money. No car, no kids, doesn't matter.
@@larzhillbot1443 Both talking about the same - enlightenment. And trust me, I didn't see it! The fact of trying to avoid 'evil' causes... existence of 'evil' so that is exactly what ego does (Oh irony, it's what christians I know do all day XD). Buddhism helped me to see the truth as I was too biased by my own anti 'christianity' feelings. We should be using this knowledge from enlightened beings as 'manual to human condition', a pointer in the right direction but somehow we don't bother to see that there is a path we have to walk. Instead we discuss what pointer shows without checking first and keep fighting about the colour of it. And that's how we created religion. Sending lots of love :)
Very wisely said Timothy. I live near the beach in Durban, South Africa and take a day or two a month as vacation days. I rent a hotel right on the beach and pretend I'm a tourist and just listen to the constant sound of the ocean waves, it's fabulous! I never bought into the rat race, I'm not a rat. Years ago there were not this many people awake; so glad to see the work you and others do in helping people to see that freedom is our birth right. There is not 3rd world or 1st world or 2nd world; just THE world and we're all in it together. Carry on...
'Succeeding' being a concept not of their own but traditionally thrust upon them, through widely accepted societal expectations and pressure of others. Well... piss on that I've always said. I decide the measure of my success cause it's my life.
Agreed. It’s refreshing to hear someone else say this. I’ve had similar thoughts about nature and humans. Other people think that I’m crazy to have these thoughts! Humans & the earth are only little specs in the universe.
I know, just sitting on the porch with a cup of coffee just looking at the trees, birds and the squirrel 🐿 fighting is wonderful. I noticed how I missed that when it got cold 🥶 I need to leave Wisconsin. 👍🏽❤️✌🏽
Man’s competitive nature causes competition to out achieve the other guy! Drop the need to keep up with our neighbors and love of this great adventure we call life!
Without ever really studying it myself, you are describing my uncollected thoughts on existentialism. I have lived the vast majority of my adult life without goals or ambition. And while I have never known what I was after out of life, I have nearly always been able to figure out what I didn't want. I am the person who mostly said no, because most of whatever was on offer was going to cost me more than I was willing to give. I never discovered anything that really made me want to change where I was, bumbling along in life. I came across your channel about a month ago and worked through a few of your videos and then this one drops in. This is the one I was looking for without knowing it ! I don't _need_ to watch anymore of your videos but of course I will. I am just getting around to making some changes in my life and this video just makes seem a little more worth the effort and it's all down to the waves coming in and out again. I'll let you know more as it all develops. Thanks Tim.
@@TimothyWard Yes I was in germany then france. Then took the cruise ship back...to new York ( bad place..didn't like it..))) then amtrak to arizona...finally bright sun and great light. Then on to la with nice weather. Bro the best times..i had was when I was export nature away...from all.this madness and industrialism. Had a good time in the hills of france. And the forests of germany. I want to find a place to live..where i can get into nature easily and have great places to explore. Prescott arizona is next ony list.
Timothy Ward! Let me explain something to you, bro. I don't watch RUclips videos over and over and over and over again. But this one? It has been like church to me dude. Thank you so much.
Remember Timothy, that the stage was already set for us and majority of us was trained on how to think and what to do. It took me along time to realize that I was enough. One of my favorite things is having free time with no where to go or things to do.
Right, Tim. Nature is as close to "God", "The Creator", "The Most High", "The Lord", "Jah", (whatever "Title" we use) as we are gonna get. I moved 80 miles away from the ocean because I couldn't afford a house anywhere close to it in Los Angeles. Now I live in the desert which has it's own type of beauty, but I really miss living 15 minutes from the ocean and walking on the shore just like you are doing now. Great video!
i here ya Stay Up , i grew up as a beach kid back in the 60s in florida Now i live in the ozark hills but the Ocean still calls me daily sadly florida has pretty much been ruined by over development .
I love your channel, but it's worth noting that humans desire to "do things " is what lifted us out of the food chain and create things that make life pretty comfortable. For lots of animals, life is quite brutal and stressful. Constant hunt and foraging for food, fleeing predators, etc. You injure a leg or a wing, get hung up on some humans discarded fishing line, or stuck in a wire fence ......you can't move properly, and can't feed yourself. That's it for you. That bit of morbid reality aside, I'm grateful to be human with all of the benefits, despite our shortcomings. Tim makes a lot of good points and I dig his take on the absurdity of our society.
Nature has a pace...and a rhythm that is calming. And that all our ancestors evolved not in littel cubes but out in nature the majority of the time. Nature is endlessly entertaining b/c it has variations but still nurturing.
I am really enjoying your channel and its wisdom. My last two jobs, the bosses felt entitled to my free time, my days off, and even my evenings. All unpaid. I had to fight the fear of, losing everything, of poverty, but i am thankful, i did not compromise and allow myself, to be violated when I wasn't even being aid for it. Humans can be energy vampires, and when they are paying you, can feel falsely entitled to your time, your life. Fuck that. Self love is setting boundaries or just leaving it. Otherwise I am allowing myself to be victimized. And that is priceless
Great message Tim! So true, but so hard at times to practice :) It reminds me of a verse in the Good Book "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own" - Matthew 6:34. Peace!
Thank you for the waves Tim!! I've never been to the ocean. I saw it at the beginning of the video and started to tear up. I completely agree about how none of this stuff really matters. I think the planet gives us everything we need but we just don't notice or we take it for granted. Everything we make our homes from, eat, drink, and wear comes from nature in a way. So I guess you could say that "Everything is Everything"
...but when we express to ppl how pointless chasing status is, they call us depressed, detached, unmotivated, bitter, etc.. We're none of those things. What we are is enlightened.
Wise words Tim, if everyone had to think like this and enjoy the now moment more, I think there would be fewer people walking around depressed here. Thanks for sharing this with us🙌👊Johan from Belgium🇧🇪
Love it Tim. Appreciating the present and the simple things is so important. We put way to much stress on ourselves. I was in that trap until a couple years ago. Keep spreading the good word Tim.
Tim......I'm picking up what you're putting down mate. Spent a lot of my working life in nature as a geologist and often found myself thinking......what is this working all for, when there is so many beautiful things to discover & experience out here......"off the beaten track"....as us Aussies say. I think we're kindred spirits, but you are a bloody good orator mate so, keep up that excellent work. See, you are working, but you never feel like it's work if you love what you do. Keep 'em coming mate.
Nice perspective reminding all of us about the importance of how whats happening w the waves, birds, etc is no more or less important than anything else . It's really true, when ya boil it down, that it's just important to be happy and let the stress go
Love the content Tim! No more sleepwalking, awakening is a beautiful thing! Keep up the great content! I myself am in the process of installing a completely new operating system during this experience. Hopefully more and more humans are awakening, and this is why no one wants to work anymore. The strength is at the bottom of the pyramid!
These are my favorite videos because we always need to be reminded. Also once you hear the wisdom of Nature/Mama Earth she will continue to teach you. Its a beautiful journey that I am currently on. Welcome 🙏
Great message. Came right on time. It snowed overnight where I live and while I despise shoveling snow, there is a peace and calm that snow brings that I was fortunate to appreciate this morning.
I wish I was at the beach 🏖 at the moment. I’m working tomorrow as a cashier at Wegmans. I really hope the next 2 days will go well without any major drama 🎭 or problems.
Life lesson- be a seagull:) I live in St Pete and the most relaxing thing in the world to me is an early am spent sitting on the beach listening to the waves. Humbling
I often think that the universe has birthed humanity so that humans can consciously look at nature and the vastness of what is with awe. We strive for knowledge out of joy but a dark force has entered our 'domain' to divert us . Good job Timothy.
Yeah growing up everyone told me i have to do this and that, i had no autonomy, basically felt like a slave to others. i wasn't allowed to have fun and didn't have friends because they thought i was weird/i was not socially calibrated like other kids were. as i get older i realize i don't have to do anything i dont want to do.
Thank you Tim for the lovely message ...🙏 According to me ,we are so fortunate to get stuff all readymade.when we are supposed to hunt for it ... The problem however;is that we forget nature when we are designed by the creator to be with close proximity...not away .. life is meaningless.
I’ve been living in Las Vegas now for 2 1/2 years. when I first moved here coming from such a different environment, I immediately noticed the “culture shock.” What was so normalized to other people was very disturbing to me. A city where everyone is chasing nothing but money. I had this moment where I was sitting there looking at the city and wondering what was the point of it all. I was also there for the same reason. I just had this moment like there was no point to any of it. What is the point of hustling so hard and working nonstop in order to acquire certain things? It all comes at a cost. 2 1/2 years later and I find myself being like the desensitized people I was questioning when I first came here. We are coming to a pivotal point in time where we need to go back to the basics. Materialism is not fulfilling anymore. We need to focus on sustainability because the “simple things” are no longer simple. The standard way of life for the past millenia is now an anomaly. I just want to grow my own food and not be a slave to paying bills and funding the government. I just want to be self sustainable and not be a slave to this matrix anymore. Materialism is an illusory simulation. It only holds value because we give it value.
My father always taught me to appreciate nature. He taught me, I didn't need to go to church to find God. Native Americans "way of life" is how I would like to live.
I feel as though you're teaching about the law of attachment in Buddhism. Attaching ourselves to thoughts, things, people, etc. As long as we are attached, suffering will continue.
I feel the same way feeling connected to the earth and nature than the human race. I think it's reaching a state very few in out current world experience. Certain places call me back. I crave them.
Well said. Life need only be complicated if you choose it to be. I am sitting next to a river just outside a tiny town in the middle of nowhere with a population of 40.... (that's why I have internet today). No neighbours today, just chilling out with nature. Walking, fishing and relaxing. That's living.
Truly agree. I stopped watching TV like 5-6 or more years ago. As a matter of fact, I don't have a TV. I try get out everyday and get in Nature. I realized, that nothing matters except the present moment and watched how nature does what it does, the isness of everything is and it's soooooooo beautiful, loving, peaceful, etc. Thanks for this video. Blessings and Love 💖
Tim, welcome to my World. I grow most of my own food, I help my fellow humans, have travelled to 173 countries, driven across both the USA and Canada more than once. The more I see of the World, the closer I feel to it, and like you, the further I feel from most human constructs and hype. Living harmoniously with the rest of the natural World is an amazing experience with less stress, more fulfillment, and happiness.
Yes, the beach gives you strange ideas, like wanting to live by ocean, return to our roots. The waves will talk to you! Update! , the worms crawl in, thecworms crawl out.
I love hiking 😊❤. I feel so much better after hiking and also sitting on the beach by myself. It feels great! Thanks for the awesome video. By the way take unsolicited advice with a grain of salt.
You took the thoughts right out of my head when you talked about nature and how we think we, as humans, are smarter. I never really believed that. I always thought nature/animals/Earth Mama, was smarter because it is simply present and going with the flow. It is truly connected. Humans, many of us, are disconnected. It's time to reconnect.
So true. Animals are so smart. They sleep when sleepy. Feed/hunt when hungry etc. we are the only species that force work and stress. People are forced to work when they are sick or extremely tired and we think this is normal, this is why everyone is depressed or overtly anxious.
EXACTLY!!!
Truth!!
This is why we have to live simple and modest lives. Because part of that stress is creating huge amount of debt that we have created. No one is holding a gun to our heads. We create huge debt to have a lavish life. Then we have to work two, three jobs to pay off this debt that we have created. We. No one else. So we have to take responsibility and stay out of debt and live simple and with less stress. Therefore being more like nature.

Hi Tim!!! I have always believed in the serenity of nature, the water, the woods, the mountains. Your videos are calming and insightful. Thank you
Totally agree
Society’s pressure many for a legacy, a title, status! 😔 heck with that.
I love your channel, but it's worth noting that humans desire to "do things " is what lifted us out of the food chain and create things that make life pretty comfortable. For lots of animals, life is quite brutal and stressful. Constant hunt and foraging for food, fleeing predators, etc. You injure a leg or a wing, get hung up on some humans discarded fishing line, or stuck in a wire fence ......you can't move properly, and can't feed yourself.

When you said, “between womb and tomb” that got me cracked up 😂
Nature has a pace...and a rhythm that is calming. And that all our ancestors evolved not in littel cubes but out in nature the majority of the time. Nature is endlessly entertaining b/c it has variations but still nurturing.
I need friends that I can talk to about stuff like this
It's nice to know that whenever you feel worried or anxious, you can remind yourself of the waves, let it all go and move on
You hit it out of the park with this one brother! 💯

Nature can teach us so much by just observing and being a part of it. I have learned so much from the ocean, the mountains and the trees.

It's so true. It isn't just a breath of fresh air (literally), it also clears your mind, and is vital for mental health.

Hopefully you'll be able to get out of the city and enjoy some time in Nature soon!
@@TimothyWard Thanks dude
Thank you Tim for the lovely message ...🙏
According to me ,we are so fortunate to get stuff all readymade.when we are supposed to hunt for it ...
The problem however;is that we forget nature when we are designed by the creator to be with close proximity...not away .. life is meaningless.
I love this video. Thank you! Such wise words
What a beautiful walk and talk. Love the ocean waves 🌊 and wise words.
In our narcissistic culture, success is money, fame and how much we achieve...so we can show it off!

Your messages keep me sane and inspired. 🙏 I am working on transforming my thinking and will pay it forward.
How are you man?
Wonderful!
I love nature...very soothing and healing for me.
You’re my spiritual brother. I’m glad you’re doing what you doing. I enjoy your monologues and reflections a lot.
Just the vibes made me like this video right away. This positivity is awesome Tim
I’ve been living in Las Vegas now for 2 1/2 years. when I first moved here coming from such a different environment, I immediately noticed the “culture shock.” What was so normalized to other people was very disturbing to me. A city where everyone is chasing nothing but money. I had this moment where I was sitting there looking at the city and wondering what was the point of it all. I was also there for the same reason. I just had this moment like there was no point to any of it. What is the point of hustling so hard and working nonstop in order to acquire certain things? It all comes at a cost. 2 1/2 years later and I find myself being like the desensitized people I was questioning when I first came here.
We are coming to a pivotal point in time where we need to go back to the basics. Materialism is not fulfilling anymore. We need to focus on sustainability because the “simple things” are no longer simple. The standard way of life for the past millenia is now an anomaly. I just want to grow my own food and not be a slave to paying bills and funding the government. I just want to be self sustainable and not be a slave to this matrix anymore. Materialism is an illusory simulation. It only holds value because we give it value.
I totally agree 👍🏾 a perfect video to start my day. . Getting ready to walk up Stone Mountain ⛰️
Have fun on your walk! I remember going to Stone Mountain with my family when I was a kid.
There is nowhere you need to go, and nothing you need to do. #present #life #freedom #peace
My father always taught me to appreciate nature. He taught me, I didn't need to go to church to find God. Native Americans "way of life" is how I would like to live.
Same here! I always say Nature is my church
I feel as though you're teaching about the law of attachment in Buddhism. Attaching ourselves to thoughts, things, people, etc. As long as we are attached, suffering will continue.
Refreshing view and a breath of fresh air. I have plenty of coworkers that could use this mindset
was feeling a bit down. this video gave me some hope now when i really needed it! much appreciated Tim. peace bro
I feel the same way feeling connected to the earth and nature than the human race. I think it's reaching a state very few in out current world experience. Certain places call me back. I crave them.
Love the beach i live in Puerto Rico for the first 18 years of my life i really love nature hi tim!!!!🖤
Well said. Life need only be complicated if you choose it to be. I am sitting next to a river just outside a tiny town in the middle of nowhere with a population of 40.... (that's why I have internet today). No neighbours today, just chilling out with nature. Walking, fishing and relaxing. That's living.
My boy Tim on another level. In a spiritual sense
Thank you for enlightening us. I agree with your thoughts. Enjoy life my friend!
Profound perception.
Truly agree. I stopped watching TV like 5-6 or more years ago. As a matter of fact, I don't have a TV. I try get out everyday and get in Nature. I realized, that nothing matters except the present moment and watched how nature does what it does, the isness of everything is and it's soooooooo beautiful, loving, peaceful, etc. Thanks for this video. Blessings and Love 💖
Nature and animals are by far more intelligent than most people.
Wow this really hit me hard....so so so true thank u Tim for this beautiful message today!
Tim, welcome to my World. I grow most of my own food, I help my fellow humans, have travelled to 173 countries, driven across both the USA and Canada more than once. The more I see of the World, the closer I feel to it, and like you, the further I feel from most human constructs and hype. Living harmoniously with the rest of the natural World is an amazing experience with less stress, more fulfillment, and happiness.
I always say the closer that I get to Nature, the more I feel God's presence.
The best video this far from you. Important realization! 🙏🏻❤️
Yes, the beach gives you strange ideas, like wanting to live by ocean, return to our roots. The waves will talk to you!
Update! , the worms crawl in, thecworms crawl out.
No truer words spoken regardless of what lifestyle we live...it all goes back to our natural state, like Mother Ocean. Thank You for the reminder Tim.
I love hiking 😊❤. I feel so much better after hiking and also sitting on the beach by myself. It feels great! Thanks for the awesome video. By the way take unsolicited advice with a grain of salt.
Welcome to the Planet! We are here to balance the Universe
Outstanding video - thank you!
I love the beach and ope fields...clears the mind....I don't watch tv...
Love your beach 100+ days sober 🙏 very good info
You took the thoughts right out of my head when you talked about nature and how we think we, as humans, are smarter. I never really believed that. I always thought nature/animals/Earth Mama, was smarter because it is simply present and going with the flow. It is truly connected. Humans, many of us, are disconnected. It's time to reconnect.
