I am super impressed as there are no cuts or edits throughout the video that I noticed. Not that there is anything wrong with edits and all but your authenticity is evident. Fantastic message. Thank you
This is so so true I attached my whole value and happiness to other people and the minute those relationships ended I lost it. I heavily lost my identity and I didn't know who I was and it left me so depressed. After months of solitude is when I can truly say I did find myself and I feel so complete and content with myself that even the relationships I waited and envied is sth I no longer chase anymore or see the dire need It's so so freeing
Wow! An old soul in a hunks body! I wasn’t going to click on your video when it came up on my feed because I didn’t think it would be meaningful for me but there is a lot of truth, education and empathy in your content. I clicked on the second video when it came on my feed again because, what’s not to love about dogs and lakes. Well, then I realized that these messages are very well thought out and relevant to all types, nationalities and age groups of people. Thank you for what you do. I’m 67.
I'm 72, and thankful to have found your videos. You are a deep well, making me want to go deeper & deeper into refining the use of these truths. THANK YOU, SIR!
"The greatest thing in the world is for a man to belong to himself" My favorite quote from the Montaigne essay "On Solitude". You have a great channel and its great to see young people like you.
Everyone I’ve dated has always tried to dominate me, no matter how good of a person they may be outside of that behavior… It’s exhausting. I’m almost at year two of being single and have progressed more in my personal life than ever before. No dating - just focusing on myself, friends, community, and hobbies. Life is good. It feels like a secret level of bliss very few know about. Thank you for your words, as always they speak to my soul.
@Solman-pr7sk respectfully, I wholly disagree with this notion as a woman trying to peacefully exist within a patriarchy. There’s a reason my life has gotten better the more I’ve prioritized other women instead of men: they treat me with dignity and respect, and I flourish under those conditions. I do my shadow work and am in tune with my animus, but also accept reality for what it is and adjust accordingly.
been going through a hard time feeling completely lost at the phase of "too young to be rushing things, but too old to be wasting time" been following you since the beginning and your videos really helps me keep up with the fast pace world that we live in, even picked up "letters from a stoic" because of you and i can confidently say its changing my life, you are a lifesaver for my mental health thank you.
It's an honor to have come across your channel and to have the opportunity to learn from your wisdom. Your videos inspire me to reflect more deeply on life's profound questions. I'm from Iran, and your message transcends borders, reminding us all of the universal importance of gratitude and introspection. Keep up the fantastic work, and thank you for sharing your knowledge with the world!
Hello, I rarely leave comments on RUclips, but I must admit, I couldn't resist expressing how much I resonate with everything you say in each of your videos, which I've watched multiple times over. Your voice, your profound gaze, and even your silence are so filled with meaning that I've never encountered before. As I listened to you with all my heart, it felt as though you were articulating my own thoughts. Unfortunately, it struck me that I've never come across anyone in our time with such deep and accurate insights. I'm not sure what shaped you into the person you are, but I must say, I feel like you're the only individual (at least that I've seen) truly living in this world! In the midst of the usual habits of people today, most perhaps pretend to have grasped the meaning of life. However, your channel's name, 'Accepting the Universe,' resonates so well because you truly understand life and living on this planet and strive to help others accept the universe. I'm grateful that your channel was suggested to me, and I hope many others have the chance to stumble upon it as well. Keep going strong, and I wish you all the best in life. A small message from someone perhaps far away !
For those of us who have no choice but to be self suficient these insights are bittersweet. I would go a little bit further, noone is waiting for you to keep you company and share your values at the end of your path to owning yourself, you will have to be ok with having noone to see you as special, noone will pat you on the back and say wow you're such a nice person, or even if they do that's not the purpose. Be kind to others even though they might never be there for you, be nice and respectful to yourself because you don't know when you might loose everything and you will have only yourself to count on.
A good sense of humor is an essential life skill, as Viktor Frankl said it's a lifeline to sanity and survival even in dark and bad times, this is true happiness, laughter is good vibrations for the soul what breath is to the body.
I love to watch your videos, I started to read Marcus Aurelius thanks to you and my life is changing for the better. It pulled me out of depression, I don't need meds anymore and I feel like I found some glimpse of happiness which I was looking for for years.
I rarely leave comments but I really enjoy your content. It's refreshing, in the age of influencers and 'sigma males', to see a person just talk and reflect about life in this kind of a format, it feels genuine - something which is sorely missing nowadays.
This is exactly what I have been thinking for the past while!, you need to figure out who you truly are and what your own beliefs are before being with another person full time.
That was truly insightful. The idea that people are attracted to those who seem to have things figured out in order to complete their own meaning really explains a lot. Thank you, you have encouraged me to start living for virtue
I surrendered a question to the universe a short while ago, because it was tormenting me inside, and you provided the clearest, most actionable answer possible. Thank you
I lost my mother 4 yrs ago .. I was completely attached to her and I felt soulless after her disappearance .. I felt displaced,worthless , unrepairable and a walking mesiry ... I guess I did loose my identity and my purpose .. Thank you ! now I am able to understand why I was feeling all that ..
Thank you for helping a lot of us in such a professional way. Because of you I read again Marcus Aurelius and Seneca, in France we used to read that at 17 years old. Now I understand all that at a deeper level. that Jack London’s book cover in your shelve winked at me and I bought Martin Eden. Just saying a big thank you, til the next one.
1. When I see you and listen to you I see a mirror which reflects quite the opposite of my personality… when I'm listening to you I realize how “fast paced” I am and you remind me to slow down and breathe. 2. In regards to this topic, I'd love to hear your thoughts on reasons why people tend to unconsciously find completion in others. 3. Miss seeing your dog around.
Your powerful words led me to purchase “Letters from a Stoic” and I have quickly fallen in love with Seneca’s philosophies. Hearing your well articulated words and seeing them laid before me through Seneca’s letters have endowed me with a sense of fulfilment and contentment I never knew was possible. May you keep inspiring all those that are willing to listen
I'm exactly in this phase that i lost a relationship and therefore lost my identity. And right now all I struggle with is who am I, and what is the anchor in my life? Who do I attach myself to? (however the reality is to find things within ourselves rather that attaching ourselves) And in this journey of self discovery your video gave my some perspective and something to look at: the virtues that made us attracted to others in the first place! Being that kind of person for myself. I think I never thought about this in this way. Thankyou. Thankyou ✨
After disconnecting with three YT Channels …that I no longer resonate with …..you came up today. This is so perfect for me after being in hermit mode for 1.5 years (no actual argument with my group) …and studying Stoicism for a while. Thank You for your work. I am returning to my family within a month and things do feel completely different. ✨💖✨
It is not easy to be a nonconformist, especially in our current social media culture. If you live for others and their acceptance, you can never know the truth of who you really are. “Nothing can bring you peace but yourself. Nothing can bring you peace but the triumph of principles.” ― Ralph Waldo Emerson, on Self Reliance ❤Great topic - thank you.
I'm happy to see this channel is doing well in the youtube algorythms. I've been recommended these videos back in November, and found your videos to be the perfect echo to some of my readings and life experiences. A lot of content on youtube, especially about stoic philosophy, lacks the true humility that you feel by reading Marcus Aurelius, or Epictetus and others. So even though some may help people, they do lack the proper match between the form and the substance, hence creating some dissonance which hinders the message. When I read the Meditations, I feel a profound calmness, a profound humility, and a profound compassion for humankind. He did not need for anyone else but him to read them, so it is stripped bare of any superfluous shape that could get in the way. It feels as if your videos do the same, because you are doing them for yourselves. But you still share them, as it is by sharing knowledge lived and good practices, that humanity progresses. Here is a place of humility, calmness and compassion. And it's a very helpful way to get reminded (or to discover) of the simple ways of living that bring peace back to the mind. I'm glad that this sort of "shape" does work its way through youtube, it shows the whole things isn't entirely broken.
Thank you for this reminder! I find that I have the most peace in my life when I’m single even if it gets lonely. At least I have the space and time to learn to truly value myself the most first and foremost. Being needy also attracts predatory people anyway.
This wonderful mind of yours... Its not just the content, but the WAY you say it. Its calming... And true for that matter... Deep down we all know it. Its just that we have been mislead by the "voices of out ancestors", within and without... The reverberation are there and there is no denying them... But there is a guidance, every now and then, in all this disquietude... I would like to thank you, deeply, for taking the time and sharing the only true knowledge, passing it, like a torch, into our own hands... I would go much deeper, but, for now, that is all I wish to convey... With regards, ND
Oh boy the romantic attachment that’s a long topic. Staying true to yourself with respect and compassion is a must. I love the titles of your videos it make me click 🤗 thank you for the great content 🙏
I’m loving your videos. It’s helping me re-center myself and I feel very calm when listening to you. Sometimes I wonder what you’re like when you’re being silly. 🤪
I wish everybody I love would understand your message. Thank you for sharing the learnings from your reading. Thank God for Philosophy and the art of staying humble. Please keep up the good work. Love from London, UK x
Hi London person - I am in Scotland - have you been able to source a copy of Marcus Aurelius Meditations that is not the new translation by Gregory Hays? I'd very much appreciated a reply. Thank you. 😊
I think being in an abusive relationship for many years taught me that most of us are going to be happier alone enjoying peace and quiet, instead of dealing with another person's baby king bullshit.
I’ve been seeing synchronicities in numbers all day today and the quote by Seneca in your channel’s description is a quote that really just sticks with me and came to me again this evening… and upon seeing this quote the time read 11:11… accepting the universe never ceases to amaze me
So many gems of wisdom in this video, and very relevant to an individual with a psychology like my own, in which I constantly pedestalize others and view them as the only path to meaning in my life. Thank you for sharing this with us.
This is such a breath of fresh air, well said. I really appreciate your wisdom and kindness. ❤ Yes, the things that give us purpose and meaningful lives are a beautiful blessing. ✨️
A wonderful encouragement to "be yourself"..... stand up on my own worth..... I like what you said. It's having something to offer instead of being draining.
Ever since I went through this shift, I have no friends at all, I only know a lot to people. While I am okay with it, my daughter worries about me, but I tell her that it’s better like this than with the wrong company, and that soon I will find my people
This is so true! We have all the answers within and we complete ourselves. I have transcended the need for human companionship in the romantic sense, I have found unconditional love is between child/parent/grandparent/pet/human, etc. It's not to say that unconditional love doesn't happen in a romantic sense, but most likely this is where ego sets in and ruins it.
I hope everyone listened until the end. That bit about happiness is important but too often overlooked. Your message is greately appreciated as I'm currently working on "completing" myself...
This video resonates with me on so many levels - all of your videos bring awareness to important things I am experiencing in my life but they also make me aware that I am aware more than I give myself credit to.
I just light up when you have a new video up, because I know my life is about to be rattled with another truth injection. Thank you for keeping it real and unedited, you're awesome!
This talk reminded me of a past era in my life. I had a 'best' friend who I now realise I liked because I wanted the virtues he showed, but in the end this friend lost all his virtues and took me down with him. The same with an old work place, where I attached my identity to, where I generated my confidence and meaning. I had all of this wrong! Only now do I understand what situations I put myself in.
This is a good video that brings about awareness of oneself. It is actually so simple, yet the mind complicates it. Spend your time doing the things that you enjoy without judgement - and voilà! There YOU are…and there you can be harmoniously with others.
I wrote about something similar to this in my book. I know a few people that depend on their partners even when that person ends up being bad for them because they’re so scared of being alone. It’s sad really
I love watching your videos, you make SO much sense! Like the whole purpose of me learning English is that I would listen to you someday :D From the other side of the world, you convert my internal chaos into clear and simple words. so thank you🙏🏼 Btw I’d love to hear your thoughts on ‘fate and choice’ one day :) thanks again
Excellent message! You are always putting out messages that are incredibly insightful. There truly isn’t any other way to live. I hope to see everyone becoming their most authentic selves!!!! 🙌🙌🙌🙌🥰
I have been enjoying your videos ever so much Mr. Accepting the Universe. I feel i have discovered these same Wisdoms on my own journey, but i have so much trouble construing my thoughts it becomes frustrating at times. Your videos are very beautifully put, and they help me hear my own thoughts through eloquent words. Thank you.
I love the way you express your thoughts in a very peaceful way, some YTubers can have this wall between themselves and their viewers but yours is presented at a more personal level as though you were speaking to me as a friend. This particular video also got me teary-eyed.
I would like to express my sincere gratitude for discovering your channel. Thank you for being authentic and sharing your insightful thoughts with us. Watching your videos somehow makes me feel seen and understood.
you voice and presentation style is so calming and soothing to my senses.i enter a meditative phase while listening to your videos.your videos are helping someone 1000s of miles away without your knowledge.keep bringing on more videos like these
Thank you for your content! I am currently going through the most difficult period of my entire life due to the end of my relationship. Somehow, your content is giving me strength to focus on myself and heal. Thank you.
your channel is popped up on my feed at the right time of my life which is try to chase everything and to be on others even I can’t give that to myself at this time. I do believe in God and Universe and I read your channel’s name and I realized God and Universe sent your channel to me by the purpose. Thank you so much.❤
No one is completely self sufficient, this is the world we live in, always somewhat co dependent, we give life to each other by working together. This is a matter of a balance, we need to accept what people cannot give us, but still enjoy what they want to give us, providing it reflects our own morality
I strive to be completely self sufficient. I realised 5 years ago that no man can make me happy, regardless of what he brings into my life so I decided to go through life single from now on and it's very liberating..I realised that all I want now is a dog .
Im exactly where you are talking of. Took a lot of pain to get here. I had to die first. Resurrected im sorting myself out and my own happiness. Only today i saw my vision. Not long left! ❤
I just had this dream and in it, I was reading some passages on a book which is unknown to me. Or perhaps I perceived it myself. I can perfectly recall the lines which I later wrote on my notebook --- one source of unhappiness is we have this wish we belong to someone else. We secretly wish we belong to someone else.
I have a very similar vibe to you, though I am a woman. I tend to think I come across as slow and overthinking. Watching your channel I now understand why some people tell me things feel calm and simple to them in my presence. That’s a lovey reflection to experience ❣️ Your videos feel like sitting and talking with a thoughtful friend. Thank you 🙏
To me, happiness is always dependent on something that can be taken away. First and foremost, others. Relationships come and go, they can be taken away from us. And yet i believe happiness is only achievable through sharing. The key to experiencing it without the constant fear is to live in the present. This doesn’t mean that a purpose greater than ourselves shouldn’t be pursued, but at the same time connection and shared emotion is a necessary condition for wellbeing, as fragile as it may be.
Great lecture. You have just explained something I have been wondering about. Needy people are attracted to me. This gives me the validation to keep working on my boundaries. I am grateful to have found your channel.
We humans we tend to seek happiness outside of ourselves. Becoming aware about life is a process sometimes we get hurt a lot before we become aware or become conscious. I lost my mother during my early 20's and it's very painful my enthusiasm lost now I know why things happen.Glad your channel is doing well 👍
I would suggest we do have an innate instinct towards meaning. It’s our proclivity to move towards our natural self, an expression of who and what we are, or as Bill Plotkin, the author of Nature and The Soul, speaks to: ‘our exact place in the world’. The more in harmony we become with this natural self, the less we entertain thoughts of meaninglessness tethered to feelings of inadequacy. The less we feel a need for change, or project an image upon ourselves that perpetuates a lack of self worth and inadequacy. I believe, the intricate weaving of nature and reality, sets fourth a series of encounters and experiences that serve to bring us into harmony with ourselves and those around us. In tapping into this, perhaps it then becomes possible to directly experience a life of which there is no need to question meaning, and to know who and what we truly are.
I am super impressed as there are no cuts or edits throughout the video that I noticed. Not that there is anything wrong with edits and all but your authenticity is evident. Fantastic message. Thank you
It’s so refreshing
All his videos are like that and it’s great. Proves the message and who’s presenting it matters most!
I like youtubers like this who goes straight to the point, no edits, no ads or self promotions. Nothing but wholesome content.
"I don't aspire to be a good man. I aspire to be a whole man."
- Carl Jung
I think it is through being a good man that you become whole. Try every other way and it simply doesn't work.
This felt less like a YT vudeo and more of a face to face conversation from a very close and kind friend. Thank you.
I love the pace of your presentation. It is soothing and provides time for contemplation and comprehension.
1000%
Same. It’s a really peaceful pace.
This is so so true I attached my whole value and happiness to other people and the minute those relationships ended I lost it.
I heavily lost my identity and I didn't know who I was and it left me so depressed.
After months of solitude is when I can truly say I did find myself and I feel so complete and content with myself that even the relationships I waited and envied is sth I no longer chase anymore or see the dire need
It's so so freeing
Me too true happiness has to come from me. Then I won’t be so eager to get it from others and get hurt again. I wish you the best friend
Me too I saw others on the pedestal and put up with the shortcomings.Even in childhood friendships.
Wow! An old soul in a hunks body! I wasn’t going to click on your video when it came up on my feed because I didn’t think it would be meaningful for me but there is a lot of truth, education and empathy in your content. I clicked on the second video when it came on my feed again because, what’s not to love about dogs and lakes. Well, then I realized that these messages are very well thought out and relevant to all types, nationalities and age groups of people. Thank you for what you do. I’m 67.
I'm 72, and thankful to have found your videos. You are a deep well, making me want to go deeper & deeper into refining the use of these truths. THANK YOU, SIR!
I can't express how much your videos are helping me through one of the toughest times of my life
More strength to you and all the best to sail through this toughest phase of your life.
it’s kind of poetic that one of youtube’s finest channels is just a guy, sitting there, talking calmly into the camera
✌️🫠Like this guy with calming voice and talking about smart things from our lives 🌈🌹👍🙏✨💫
"The greatest thing in the world is for a man to belong to himself" My favorite quote from the Montaigne essay "On Solitude". You have a great channel and its great to see young people like you.

@Solman-pr7sk respectfully, I wholly disagree with this notion as a woman trying to peacefully exist within a patriarchy. There’s a reason my life has gotten better the more I’ve prioritized other women instead of men: they treat me with dignity and respect, and I flourish under those conditions. I do my shadow work and am in tune with my animus, but also accept reality for what it is and adjust accordingly.
Stay on this path, in modern dating people will play games within days or hours .. focus on yourself and everything WILL fall into place
‘Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path
and leave a trail…’ Always looking forward for your videos cheers!
been going through a hard time feeling completely lost at the phase of "too young to be rushing things, but too old to be wasting time" been following you since the beginning and your videos really helps me keep up with the fast pace world that we live in, even picked up "letters from a stoic" because of you and i can confidently say its changing my life, you are a lifesaver for my mental health thank you.

Thank you sir. It is nice to meet you on RUclips
Wow - Thank you for sharing this. Your talks nourrish my days 🌞💜
I’ve been seeing synchronicities in numbers all day today and the quote by Seneca in your channel’s description is a quote that really just sticks with me and came to me again this evening… and upon seeing this quote the time read 11:11… accepting the universe never ceases to amaze me
You are like a good friend. Much respect to you.
So many gems of wisdom in this video, and very relevant to an individual with a psychology like my own, in which I constantly pedestalize others and view them as the only path to meaning in my life. Thank you for sharing this with us.
Thank you for being so real. I am struggling with my mental health lately, your channel feels like a gift to me!
Plus your voice is not less than ASMR
This is such a breath of fresh air, well said. I really appreciate your wisdom and kindness. ❤ Yes, the things that give us purpose and meaningful lives are a beautiful blessing. ✨️
A wonderful encouragement to "be yourself"..... stand up on my own worth..... I like what you said. It's having something to offer instead of being draining.
love how it feels like sitting with someone and listening to them talk about a certain topic, thank you
Congratulations! A job well done, you have done, especially with this video. Really interesting approach !
Super impressed...struggling with something that I could resolve, but your out of the box thoughtful analysis has made me understand. Beautiful
Ever since I went through this shift, I have no friends at all, I only know a lot to people. While I am okay with it, my daughter worries about me, but I tell her that it’s better like this than with the wrong company, and that soon I will find my people
This is so true! We have all the answers within and we complete ourselves. I have transcended the need for human companionship in the romantic sense, I have found unconditional love is between child/parent/grandparent/pet/human, etc. It's not to say that unconditional love doesn't happen in a romantic sense, but most likely this is where ego sets in and ruins it.
Absolutely beautifully said! I’m applying this to my life, and I will continue to, I am whole
Thank you so much for your words of wisdom, Norman Osborne.
I hope everyone listened until the end. That bit about happiness is important but too often overlooked. Your message is greately appreciated as I'm currently working on "completing" myself...
This video resonates with me on so many levels - all of your videos bring awareness to important things I am experiencing in my life but they also make me aware that I am aware more than I give myself credit to.
Thanks a lot for the video!
I just light up when you have a new video up, because I know my life is about to be rattled with another truth injection. Thank you for keeping it real and unedited, you're awesome!
Wonderful explanation
I have found my meaning in life without attachment....it was a lot of work....
resonates, much appreciated.

I came across him when his channel was at 20k and that was not to long ago. His channel is growing at a pretty good pace thankfully.
It’s impossible to miss when your aim is true.
What a calm and soothing voice
@@MeadeFatLoss lol okay sir
This talk reminded me of a past era in my life. I had a 'best' friend who I now realise I liked because I wanted the virtues he showed, but in the end this friend lost all his virtues and took me down with him. The same with an old work place, where I attached my identity to, where I generated my confidence and meaning. I had all of this wrong! Only now do I understand what situations I put myself in.
This is so beautiful, thank you!
This is a good video that brings about awareness of oneself. It is actually so simple, yet the mind complicates it. Spend your time doing the things that you enjoy without judgement - and voilà! There YOU are…and there you can be harmoniously with others.
I wrote about something similar to this in my book. I know a few people that depend on their partners even when that person ends up being bad for them because they’re so scared of being alone. It’s sad really
Wow. This is so relevant for me. Very well articulated. Thanks.
I love watching your videos, you make SO much sense! Like the whole purpose of me learning English is that I would listen to you someday :D
From the other side of the world, you convert my internal chaos into clear and simple words. so thank you🙏🏼
Btw I’d love to hear your thoughts on ‘fate and choice’ one day :) thanks again
Excellent message! You are always putting out messages that are incredibly insightful. There truly isn’t any other way to live. I hope to see everyone becoming their most authentic selves!!!! 🙌🙌🙌🙌🥰
You are such a beautiful being, thank you so much for your words! 💖
I have been enjoying your videos ever so much Mr. Accepting the Universe. I feel i have discovered these same Wisdoms on my own journey, but i have so much trouble construing my thoughts it becomes frustrating at times. Your videos are very beautifully put, and they help me hear my own thoughts through eloquent words. Thank you.
I love the way you express your thoughts in a very peaceful way, some YTubers can have this wall between themselves and their viewers but yours is presented at a more personal level as though you were speaking to me as a friend. This particular video also got me teary-eyed.
I would like to express my sincere gratitude for discovering your channel. Thank you for being authentic and sharing your insightful thoughts with us. Watching your videos somehow makes me feel seen and understood.
😊 from Scotland.
you voice and presentation style is so calming and soothing to my senses.i enter a meditative phase while listening to your videos.your videos are helping someone 1000s of miles away without your knowledge.keep bringing on more videos like these
enjoy listening to you, you should make a podcast!
Thank you for your content! I am currently going through the most difficult period of my entire life due to the end of my relationship. Somehow, your content is giving me strength to focus on myself and heal. Thank you.
your channel is popped up on my feed at the right time of my life which is try to chase everything and to be on others even I can’t give that to myself at this time. I do believe in God and Universe and I read your channel’s name and I realized God and Universe sent your channel to me by the purpose. Thank you so much.❤
No one is completely self sufficient, this is the world we live in, always somewhat co dependent, we give life to each other by working together. This is a matter of a balance, we need to accept what people cannot give us, but still enjoy what they want to give us, providing it reflects our own morality
I strive to be completely self sufficient. I realised 5 years ago that no man can make me happy, regardless of what he brings into my life so I decided to go through life single from now on and it's very liberating..I realised that all I want now is a dog .
Your videos are amazing, and thank you for passing this knowledge to everyone! I hope you know how impactful your videos are.
Im exactly where you are talking of. Took a lot of pain to get here. I had to die first.
Resurrected im sorting myself out and my own happiness. Only today i saw my vision.
Not long left! ❤
I just had this dream and in it, I was reading some passages on a book which is unknown to me. Or perhaps I perceived it myself. I can perfectly recall the lines which I later wrote on my notebook --- one source of unhappiness is we have this wish we belong to someone else. We secretly wish we belong to someone else.
Like a breath of fresh air. Thank you
I have a very similar vibe to you, though I am a woman. I tend to think I come across as slow and overthinking. Watching your channel I now understand why some people tell me things feel calm and simple to them in my presence. That’s a lovey reflection to experience ❣️ Your videos feel like sitting and talking with a thoughtful friend. Thank you 🙏
This is beautiful.
To me, happiness is always dependent on something that can be taken away. First and foremost, others. Relationships come and go, they can be taken away from us. And yet i believe happiness is only achievable through sharing.
The key to experiencing it without the constant fear is to live in the present.
This doesn’t mean that a purpose greater than ourselves shouldn’t be pursued, but at the same time connection and shared emotion is a necessary condition for wellbeing, as fragile as it may be.
Great lecture. You have just explained something I have been wondering about. Needy people are attracted to me. This gives me the validation to keep working on my boundaries. I am grateful to have found your channel.
I look forward to your video every week! Looks like I’m not the only one ❤
We humans we tend to seek happiness outside of ourselves. Becoming aware about life is a process sometimes we get hurt a lot before we become aware or become conscious. I lost my mother during my early 20's and it's very painful my enthusiasm lost now I know why things happen.Glad your channel is doing well 👍
I would suggest we do have an innate instinct towards meaning.
It’s our proclivity to move towards our natural self, an expression of who and what we are, or as Bill Plotkin, the author of Nature and The Soul, speaks to: ‘our exact place in the world’.
The more in harmony we become with this natural self, the less we entertain thoughts of meaninglessness tethered to feelings of inadequacy.
The less we feel a need for change, or project an image upon ourselves that perpetuates a lack of self worth and inadequacy.
I believe, the intricate weaving of nature and reality, sets fourth a series of encounters and experiences that serve to bring us into harmony with ourselves and those around us.
In tapping into this, perhaps it then becomes possible to directly experience a life of which there is no need to question meaning, and to know who and what we truly are.
