Everybody is familiar with the feeling that things are not as they should be. That you are not successful enough, your relationships not satisfying enough. That you don’t have the things you crave.
In this video we want to talk about one of the strongest predictors of how happy people are, how easily they make friends and how good they are at dealing with hardship. An antidote against dissatisfaction so to speak: Gratitude.

Ohai! For a change a few personal words. My name is Philipp and I started this channel almost seven years ago - you don’t know my voice but you have heard my words because I write most of our scripts. Oh boy. This was a hard video to make. Gratitude felt vaguely risky to do as a topic. It has this aura of cheap Instagram hashtag self help stuff. Some of you will hate this video deeply, and the thought of that made me pretty anxious writing it. Gratitude was not supposed to be a video topic originally. Just like the Nihilism and Loneliness videos, the script was based on personal struggles and part of the process of dealing with them. And so it felt right to make gratitude a video too. But Kurzgesagt is not a self help channel, so we'll keep this sort of content at roughly one or two per year. We hope they are helpful to some of you. If you care for my take on how to practice Gratitude, we made a Kurzgesagt Gratitude journal to combine the science with practical tips. shop.kurzgesagt.org/ Edit: PRE-ORDER is available again. Please note: You don’t need to buy this or anything else to practice gratitude - you only need a pen, a piece of paper and 5 minutes. Thank you for watching our videos and reading this comment. Being able to do Kurzgesagt means a lot. To me and the whole team. - Philipp
*_[yay, another awesome video]_*
Thank you guys so much for all the effort you put into the videos keep up the good work!
The Black Duck should be called Edgar :3
PD: your videos are amazing! Keep up the good work 🥰
Hope Kurzgesagt sees this
This might be the single most beautiful channel I follow Philipp
Your channel is getting weird. Please stop that.
Kurzgesagt: _reaches 10 minute mark_
Also Kurzgesagt: 0 midroll ads

Gratitude levels: 1000
I have to agree with this will pack guy. RUclips is full of these idiots writing literally nobody:.... Also kurgesagt :.... It makes me angry constantly reading this utterly stupid type of meme in 70% posts of every single video.
"I'm grateful for Kurzgesagt" would be the first thing I write
Damn right
That literarly came to my mind as the first thing to write down.
Shut up
@@defaulttext6346 what do you mean?
Me too
The existence of this channel is a HUGE REASON to be grateful. The animation is soo smooth and comforting! It's beautiful!.
Hmm... Well said 😊
Of ourse it is for your low attention mind. Wont, and can't sit through anything unless it's bright and colorful? Big and slow words? Alot of visuals?
@@shayorshayorshayor What's the point of your comment? Please avoid making these statements when they're unnecessarily mean
@@Alesiloo alright

8:58 is the best sentence any creator has said about their own merch. We made a thing. We made it worth the effort. We made it pretty but you can do without it. Just use regular pen and paper. I love it. Thank you Kurzgesagt team for being such an impactful part of my life.
you are disgusting! 😡😈
Ehhh I'm not so sure. Giving that disclaimer was sort of mandated because of how bad it would look if they didn't.
> Video about how to be happier (something which goes right to the core of what literally everyone wants)
> In the video, explain that the study results show you can improve it on your own with no products.
> We made a book which tells you how to be happier.
It does seem like a bit of an exploitative bit of merch. Playing on everyone's desire to be happier and flying under the banner of study-informed, while not actually adding anything proven to work in those studies. It would not reflect well on them if they didn't address that.
How about thinking it as a point of view? I think no one have to argue about this. Thoguh no one did XD
The problem is bad formation mixed with Marxism and atheist philosophy and Gnosticism which indoctrinated the people through Human Resources at work and through the textbook publishers at university and college with complete funding and donations through your government which sold itself to the devil.
@@TheRABIDdude He did state that practicing gratitude would not solve depression or anything like that, it’s just one piece to the puzzle 6:54. It won’t completely make you immediately happy and that’s not what he claimed in this video. The book is a guide in case you don’t know where to start like a lot of therapeutic practice books.

Unironic username, Non cynical sarcasm Bruh, it's a metaphor. You're either optimistic or pessimistic.

@@MisterK9739 your missing the point. It's a great quote, but there are bittersweet things, and while the general gist of it's true, there are many things that you should be optimistic about, and things that if your not pessimmistic about, your clearly not understanding it correctly. You can be both, and be correct about life.
I can hear his voice, very calming
Kurzgesagt:
- how to destroy the whole planet
- how to explore the galaxy
- how to improve your life
You guys are the mvp of channels.
Yeah, and lets not forget the "you're driving down a road when you're suddenly involved in a car crash that ends your life" not even 1 min into the video video.
Not that it means anything but they were in YT Rewind this year (YT Rewind is shit tho but nice shoutout)
1) destroy the Earth
2) explore the rest of the Galaxy
3) become a God

Man i remember an event when i was young and had a very narcissistic mind and thought of me as a tough guy, i was studying to be a Chef in an small institute...and we had this French culinary teacher, that was really a pain in the ass, i mean it, she was extremely severe and calculating in how she directed and looked at students, she was frightening, but one day, she talked to us in a very different way, she started to talk about how grateful we all should be of having studies, having the opportunity to be in an institute that was prestigious, and then she started to talk about her life, the only thing i remember is she saying: "when i open the shower knob in the morning and water starts flowing and splashing my face and pour all my body...i thank God and life, for having this...". And i was like: "but its just water" At that time...i took it for granted, i was still young and immature to know what it meant...until it hit me later, as there was a severe drought in one part of Africa in the news and i saw how people were dying because there was no water...it might sound silly but that made me redefine my whole mindset, i was starting to feel..grateful for being able to breathe, for the sunshine, for the rain, for the water, for having full organs, and healthy, for having a family and some friends (as i was not that social) and for being able to have electricity and playing in my small PC, this sole idea changed me forever and was finally solidified when i read a quote from Cormac Maccarthy´s the great american writer: "“You never know what worse luck your bad luck has saved you from.” ― Cormac McCarthy, No Country for Old Men". Your life can always be turned upside down, don´t take it for granted, enjoy it with a humble and grateful mindset and you will apreciate every bit of it...

theyre dialogue always comes off as informative and gentle, they never sound forceful or lecturing; the scriptwriters know what they're doing and the narrator executes it well. i love this channel
*Sooo whats my bank account like?*
"In the end, how you experience life is a representation of what you believe about it."
This is a major concept of why one should strive towards and keep a positive mindset and that is where gratitude kicks in in maintaining that too.

A couple of months ago, I found myself feeling dissatisfied, bored, and a bit lonely. So I started to make a conscious effort to express gratitude for everything. Since I started doing that, I found myself noticing more and more things to be grateful for. Gratitude is an amazing thing and no one should ever doubt its power and effect on both yourself and others. I am so grateful for this channel and everything they do to help spread knowledge and information that I find so intriguing and interesting.
Thanks for the video. I grew up very poor, but every night my mother made us say our "gratefuls" during dinner. You can always find something, even if it is "I'm grateful I didn't get hit by a bus today."
"Being a human is hard, but it doesn't need to be _as_ hard"

@@MichaelAbreu I own the old Odyssey and the Quest. The Odyssey has many better features when comparing:
+ Resolution on PC VR titles
+ FOV
+ More comfortable for long play sessions
+ Extremely easy to use as Windows 10 has it's integration built in.
+ Sim racing and flying games, this is the best hands down.
The Quest is a beast though:
+ Mobility with no wires (Cannot stress enough, it's another level going wireless)
+ Tracking and tracking volume is much better than Odyssey (more cameras and dedicated processor onboard)
+ Recent addition of PC VR support (works unbelievably well but res is definitely lower when directly comparing)
+ Future updates (maybe wireless PC VR, hand tracking etc)
+ Cross buy with Oculus Rift games (not all but quite a few) along with SteamVR etc
The above is a quick comparison but if you can afford it, the Quest is the better choice for value and future extensibility. If you cant afford the extra, the Odyssey is a fantastic entry into the market. If you're a sim person, Odyssey is the hands down winner though.

I did too! Glad they had it after, but now it auto plays the one about us being at the beginning of humanity and it’s really inspiring! 🤩

honestly it just occurred to me that I stopped practicing written gratitude about a year ago and then slowly stopped practicing grattitude in its entirety to the point where ive been downgrading positive achievements with everything that I have not achieved. This was like a reminder to do that again and is probably a crucial point as to why im bringing myself down so much atm. Thanks for the reminder and a great time to everyone!

Much gratitude!
Hi, just wanted to share my story, bc maybe it helps me. Last year my mother got infected with covid, she didn’t have and previous diseases, she was sporty, healthy and not old. I was 18 by that time and within 1 week she got intubated, put into artificial coma, and stayed like this for 2 months. I was given the autority for her, I was grateful for that, my parents are divorced and nobody knows my mother like I do. The doctors told me horrible things, that she wouldn‘t make it and that they don’t know what to do anymore. It was hard to watch my strong mother like this, but during this time no matter what the doctors said, I stayed positive, it was no option in my head that my mum wouldn‘t wake up and become healthy again. So somehow the doctors managed to save her life, after 4 months she was extubated and awake. She was allowed to come home. We were more than grateful. But 1 week later she got an sepsis And needed to go to the hospital again. She stayed there another months and needed surgery. But than she came home and was able to do everything normally again. It was and is like a miracle. But then a thought popped to my mind, she was healthy and strong and still covid almost killed her what if she gets infected again, so I stopped meeting my friends and my boyfriend, it was all my desicion, my mother told me to do everything normally but I‘m just too afraid to loose her. I would live in another apartment for 2 weeks to meet friends and then do 10 days or More of quarantine and several pcr tests to make sure I don’t have covid and than go back to my mum. But it‘s not the same, because I‘m not free in my desicions, there‘s always the thought of loosing her, but it‘s also tearing me apart to live like this. This year I‘m moving to another country for studying, so I will be able to do whatever I like, but I won‘t have my mother by my side. I‘m stuck in a dilemma on one side I‘m very grateful on the other side I keep asking myself why this happend to us. And I‘m sad that I missed out on so many things with friends, especially now where I know how precious time is and how wisely you should use it. Please be kind, it‘s a very personal story for me. Thank you
I hope you're doing well
Please be kind - to oneself - to each other. One of the most important ways to be.
Thank you.
Be kind to yourself.
Wow you are so strong at your young age. You have decided the very best for your Mom and your family and you should be very grateful to yourself and also for life that she survived 😊think you should now take the good decision for you to enjoy your year abroad to the fullest. I think your Mom is now strong enough she is maybe more immune than a lot of us to the virus after her strong infection and probably vaccinations too. You dont have to fear for her anymore and can now concentrate on yourself! ❤
i am grateful because i found this channel
kurzgesagt: GRATITUDE
also kurzgesagt: how to destroy the universe

My wife and I saw this video when it first released. COVID and return to a new-normal changed the way we saw life for the worse. We've tried to journal, but it didn't stick. However, 4 years later, we recognize that we need to practice gratitude because we don't like the bad habits that developed during lockdown. We are optimistic about doing these exercises and thank Philipp for reminding us that small steps (like gratitude) can lead to big things.

This was exactly what I needed! I was abused for many years, and I finally found the "root" of my trauma. I would basically ask for help from anyone that would listen, and yet, no help ever came. As a teenager and in my twenties, I lost hope in everything, including life. But now I'm trying to find hope again and build a life that's worth living. I think gratitude journaling will help me find what I'm looking for, and I'm grateful for this video.

Having a habit of gratitude should smooth the way - not hinder it. With this I mean that you don't have to feel gratitude about everything. Some days are awful. Some events are horrible. Some people are bad for you.
Recognizing this makes gratitude a helpful tool, not a yolk wheighing you down.
I like that he said that 'you don't need to buy anything for gratitude journaling' 😊

My dad once told me an amazing thing... "Son, you're smart. You ask questions at an age where others choose to play games. Don't think this is a good thing from all perspectives. You'll see more of the shit in the world than other people. It'll be harder for you to find love, harder to tolerate injustice. Ultimately, there's a chance you'll be less happy than the person you call stupid. Don't judge people. Live your life, and try to relax. Turn on your aggressive and analytical mind only when it is necessary, or you will burn out. And if you ever meet someone who you feel a connection with, a friend or more, don't let them go. It'll be much harder for you to replace them. People are different, most are already set on a path they will walk to their grave. Don't try to change strangers, don't judge them either. Waste your breath and time, on the people that matter."
God, I'm only starting to understand...

Really useful, plain and simple. Self help videos like this 'more' than once a year would be helpful to quite a number of people, younger ones especially.
My former driving instructor said that out of her current 26 pupils, 24 had been diagnosed with anxiety issues to varying degrees. That is an astonishingly high proportion.
Anxiety is a serious modern problem and there are going to be a significant number of subscribers to this channel that would benefit from gentle hints on how to help combat this issue.

I've been watching Kurzgesagt since many years ago and have always been impressed by the quality of the videos and surprised by how it connects to me. I remember watching this video before years back and how it captivated me but watching it back now almost brought tears to my eyes same with the Tail End video where mortality is discussed. Your videos have really changed the way I think about things and made me realized just how powerful is the human brain actually is. And so, to that, I am very much grateful that you guys are putting out these contents that I have really needed desperately for. Life has been a bit hard for a while now and I've been quite discouraged but this video has helped me open my eyes once again. I'm truly grateful, thank you.

When objective, scientific videos are more motivating than motivational speakers
Yes 👏 If anything motivational speeches just sound like the same things being repeated over and over again, and it’s honestly annoying. This video was 10X more informative and motivational than any motivational speeches I’ve heard. For me, motivational speeches just hit for the moment and fizzle out after a while. I think this video is different.
As it should be 😋

I found this video late, I think around 5-6 months ago, but I'm so glad I found it when I did. I come here in this moment to say thank you. Ironically and so perfectly I guess to say I'm grateful. Beyond grateful. Whatever went into this video, whatever conversations were had, doubts that got pushed past, the decisions that were made in yalls lives to get here; shout out to those too. I can't stress how much this truly has shaped the last few months of my life, and in turn also the people I love the most. Which is all I could ever, ever ask for. Theres so much more I want to say here, but for now I gotta keep riding out what yall gave me, and piece together what the last 6 months have been.I had to at the very least give a quick, sincere, giant thank you.
Thank you so much Kurzgesagt, I loved this video ❤ I just got rejected on a job offer today but Im still grateful for the application process experience. 😊
This isn’t said enough: those videos are absolutely beautiful. A huge, grateful thank you to the artists who did an amazing job
The Escherian question mark image near the beginning got me
And also to the narrator, thanks for your voice
Also for all the research and care put into it.
These videos are just further conditioning by the state, trust the government, trust science, go out to work everyday and pay your taxes, buy their goods, eat, sleep, obay, consume, repeat. Open your eyes, the symbolism in these videos is shocking.
@@redwheelbarrow9729 Honestly feel bad for people who have to live their life like you. Fearful and distrustful of everything government and science.
I feel satisfied when a Kurzgesagt notification buzzes my phone though.
Same
i feel grateful haha
@Nathaniel Wingti hell yeah, exactly.
@@DarkPotatoRus Shit I was gonna say that but I feel grateful for you.
True story
Starting my gratitude journal here:
• I love my hometown and I'm grateful that I live there
• I'm grateful for my amazing family
• I have a few friends but I'm grateful to have them in my life
• I'm grateful that my life is going in the direction I want
• I'm grateful for all the wonderful experiences in my life
• I am grateful for my peaceful life
Amen
2:50 "... felt gratitude towards them and a bond to return the favor in the future".
Sadly I just realize that some people have erased that behavior in their genes.
This is seriously the best channel on RUclips...
Correct
Yes
Give exurb1a and pursuit of wonder a look if you like these kind of vids
I agree, it's one of the best.

Hello, and welcome to the timezone!

With every video from this channel that I watch, my brain grows
1. 헤어졌지만 눈물이 안나는 것에 대한 감사
2. 맛있는 음식을 먹을 수 있음에 감사
3. 불안한 공허한 마음을 인지하고 해결하기 위해 영상을 보는 나의 행동에 감사
4. 가족이 건강한 것에 감사
5. 오늘 날씨가 좋고 저녁에 계획이 있다는 것에 감사

7. 좋은 채널을 발견한 것에 감사
8. 내가 나를 더 좋은 사람으로 만드려는 노력이 감사

Kurzgesagt: We don't wanna be a self help channel
Also kerzgesagt: completely changes my world view and mindset making my like way better
Ikr right!

I just wont like it cuz otherwise I would destroy beauty but I liked ur comment
@@yagzkerimcnar7356 my last brain cell just died
@@genius6084 same, but with the first reply " ikr right", ... like wtf
Those 10 millions subs are earned in the most truthful way.
This channel literally deserves them
@@RegoXera in a more grateful world they'd have reached a couple billion at least !
I read this quote last year . It's really helped me alot . Want to share ...."Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow.”
goshhh so it's been a few...years since i came back to this channel and for some reason this video has me on verge of happy tears 🥺 i am so grateful that this channel exists!! 💜
You know. I'm grateful that this channel exists. This alone has taught me so much about the world, science, and the human body all at once. It's really boosted my passion for knowledge. Thank you guys, keep it up, I love your work.
Sneeki Soviet thank you for thanking them, now i dont have to to write haha
Big facts
Truth right there
damn straight
Yeah, they got a well deservedplace in rewind
Started practising gratitude a few years ago and it really is life changing. started with strawberry jam on toast, then coffee, a warm bed on a cold night, a friend, a car that starts, living in New Zealand, a hot shower after a tough day at work, having work, my favourite t-shirt, music, red wine and dark chocolate and literally a thousand other things.
can you elaborate how it was "life changing"? Thank you from Germany
Julio Chao hi, I began to find joy in things I had previously overlooked. I realised how privileged I am compared to many others in the world which opened my eyes to to the needs of others. I started expressing my gratitude to others for even small acts of kindness and found that it’s a contagious attitude. I no longer get overwhelmed by the difficulties of life. Life is generally more exciting. I could go on but I’ll leave there. Thanks for asking.
@@everexpanding1 > living in New Zealand
I am to understand that the views are spectacular out there. And that Trump's not your president. Heck, I'm prepared to feel grateful on your behalf. xD
Same! I have been doing a nightly gratitude journal and it has caused an "upward spiral" that has led to me dropping a lot of bad habits, picking up good ones, having more ambitions, and executing more of them. I learned about it in my undergrad, implemented it, and it works just like my prof (and this video) said it would.
*living in New Zealand*
thank you for always sharing in such a considerate and conscientious manner. I love all the videos you do because they way you guys make and share them is so lovely and humane!!! thanks for being awesome, that’s what i’m grateful for today!
I'm grateful for this RUclips channel!!! Thank you! 💯
Went to school today and two of my friends were like "Hey did you see Kurzgesagt's new video?"
I am proud.
hell yeah dude, their awesome messages are spreading!!! :)
This video, along with the vibe of the “Loneliness” video are so absolutely wonderful. Phillip you do wonderful work, as does everyone else who brings these videos to life. Thank you, your work makes me better.
Garrett Watts GARRETT I LOVE YOUUU
Garrbearrrr!!
Oh my gOD GARRETT!!! I see that you have came across the same Goldmine :>
Also, I don't wanna ruin ur 333 like count so yeah
OMG I was just loving this video and reading comments and I see you here! Glad to know you liked this video too!
They really do amazing work and it seriously feels like using such a great platform and knowledge to help change the world
Thank you.
Such simple words, with profound effects we’ll never know.
It is possible to say thank you forever. Over n over again. Whenever one notices this moment is happening. Thank you.
It is forever.

これなんて言っているか分かりましたか?
Dear Diary,
Today I watched a video of Kurzegesagt and I'm very grateful to them about it.
Yo this made me tear up
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 same
hell yeah
Really foo
It's amazing how we get these kinds of content for free. People badly need this, a therapy, since people usually wouldn't go into an actual session because either: too expensive or wouldn't want to waste their time on it. Honestly, I'm grateful that there are groups like Kurzgesagt who makes such contents for everyone.
What a Name weil i pay taxes for it
True wise words!)
Yeah totally dude, this helps a lot. 😄

This is not a governmental program - this is a RUclips video done by several individuals. Your taxes do not sponsor them in any way...
This helps so much. Thank you. All of the team that worked on this. Thank you all
GRATITUDE🙏, This is the solution for the biggest problem in my life and thank you🙏❤ very much for helping me to find it.
Kurzgesagt most of the time: "What if we BLOW UP THE EARTH with EVERYTHING WE CAN POSSIBLY THINK OF!!!?????”
Kurzgesagt every once in a while: "But what is happiness, really?"
XD so true.
Let me fix that for you:
-Kurzgesagt every once in a while: "But what is happiness, really?"-
Kurzgesagt in a US presidential election run-up where several candidates are actively talking about taxing billionaire wealth: "Money doesn't buy everything--so write down what you're grateful for in our €24.95 gratitude journal!"
... to blow the Earth with everything we can possibly think of!
Obviously!

@Fuert Neigt Something tells me maybe this internet video isn't aimed at people who are barely surviving. You could learn a thing or two from these videos, maybe do something positive to help instead of being negative online.
@Student Samuel Ma no no it's "Reality is in the eyes of the beerholder."
Wholesome graffiti.
Thank you, I needed this today. I'm having some problems in my family, my relationship with my parents hasn't been so good lately, and this video gave me an important incentive. Thank you Kurzgesagt, you make my life better everyday.
This channel has the most insightful and helpful videos on the Internet👏
"We don't want to be a self-help channel..."
Next week on Kurzgesagt: "15 ways death from space might already be on its way and we are laughably helpless to stop it"

The week after: “what if we dropped every nuclear bomb ever created on your house?”
I'm grateful for this comment.

I love how Kurzgesagt doesn't push their merch onto you at the beginning of the video, and just slightly advertise their merch in a most humble and kind way at the end of the video after covering all the subjects within the video
@@gumbymofugga Yeah.
I really don't mind if he puts it infront of the video either cuz they put their effort into it
@@dr.downvote I don't mind, cus it's Kurzgesagt and they deserve any good that comes to them, but I'm just saying that I love how even though they could do it, they don't, so even though the viewer attention will be reduced at the end of the video, they still do it at the end for the viewer. It is very very thoughtful of them
I love how he states in the beginning that there are all kinds of pundits trying to sell you stuff that makes you feel better, and in the end, he tries to sell you something to make you feel better:)
@@TheSteinbitt at least his stuff actually work lol
It seems like for many of us, this channel has been a safe place that has only helped us improve the quality of our lives more 🤍 coming out of a cycle of depressive episodes over the years, this channel, and this video, truly made a difference for me. Even 3 years later the knowledge that’s been shared is life changing. True success is a legacy of adding good to the world. Congratulations Phillip.
I have been taught to gratify everything by my parents and I have done it for a long time, my life become more colorful and stress free. You can be changed your life for you by yourself I thought 💭
from🇯🇵
"We hope they are helpful to some of you"
It changed my life, man.
I agree. The way I think changed a lot after practicing this. I'm able to be a lot more positive now.
I tried this by being grateful. And I also read that if you start you day good and early, the rest of the day will be amazing.
And guess what? That exactly happened. It was such an amazing experience, I even learned doubled in school and held my self much more advanced.
It's hard to explain but just start the day by being grateful for every second your living, every food you eat and much more. Be grateful to God and you will surely succeed
“How you experience life is a representation of what you believe about it”
Pretty spot on, a lot of Truth in it (excluding extreme scenarios)
well this quote was a slap in the face
@@l9324 So many people are full pessimism, indifference, and just to the brim with hopelessness. It says a lot about someone's beliefs, despite what they truly long for.
@@Eddi3Pwns i've longed for death for awhile
@@l9324 Humans are capable of amazing feats. I'm sorry that's how you've felt for a long time, it's not something anyone should long for. Life can get better, and I hope you continue being a strong person as you are, and beat this soon
This is how a video should be made: away from controversial themes.
I'd forgotten about how much my gratitude lists helped me in my first 8 months of sobriety. These past 8 months have been much harder without those simple lists. I didn't even do them everyday, but they made me feel better overall and immediately, in the moment.
Kurzgesagt: "Being a human is hard"
Everybody Liked That
it makes me feel a lot better with myself
Shut the fuck up reddit
@Boots Jew Are you ok man? I worry about yout mindset toeards African Americans.
@Boots Jew Why are you replying to every comment with something negative about black people?
Guys give him a rest. He's just a teenager who likes to troll. Don't let someone trolling make the entire comment thread toxic.
I'm grateful for having a device that connected to internet that making me watch this video.
are you really. or have you taken it for granted? i know i have.
@@Zahnpuppy i've taken it for granted. but now im going to appreciate the fact that i have wifi, and a device, and minecraft, and online friends... the list goes on
kurzgesagt said there are no pills for happiness
also too many hoomanz. give us back the ari army!
WRITE IT DOWN!
This video found me at just the right time. Wonderful content and I'm grateful I was introduced to this channel and am always thankful for your hard work, time, and research y'all put into each of your videos! much love!
I am very grateful for Kurzgesagt. Watching your videos is always inspiring, and always in new and different ways. Thank you for all the hard work!
