It’s easy to forget that everyone else is living their own individual lives just as real as ours
Yep, its too easy to fall into our own hell, rather than get out there helping everyones little heaven
Sonder
Oh I think about it constantly and it makes it harder to hate people but also I overthink everything
What do you mean? Aren't you all just NPCs, going around randomly?
@@Miki_Naz *we. Seriously everyone including me is an NPC to someone else what even is consciousness
"People aren't against you. They're for themselves."
Except when they're being malicious.
Everyone has problems so at the very least, try being nice.
yeah... NOT against you...
..at your expense... for "themselves"...?
Not mutually exclusive. A lot of people are for themselves and do it at other people’s expense. Nevertheless a valuable message about everyone having shit going on in their individual lives. Still tho...
This pandemic is a pretty good example. non one expects anyone to sacrifice their well being, buuut some people take reasonable self preservation to an extreme level and hoard and OD on supplies because they’re “for themselves”.
D L
So I got just a lil carried away typing this cause I’ve spent so much time thinking about all this lately, just some shit I got into but it’s def worth reading..
So I literally realized that shit while playing a battle royale game.. kept losing in what could be considered unlucky ways n I was pissed, for most of life I used to feel like life is out to fuck me over so naturally I’d feel like that when some unlucky shit happens, then the realization just fuckin bodyslams me like “naw, these people are people too, living their own lives. They’re not just tryna fuck me over, they don’t even know who I am. It’s not that anyone else wants me to lose, it’s that they want to win for themselves, because just like me, they’re an at least somewhat normal fuckin person and they’re playing the game, they want to win.” Same in life. nobody else (for the most part) wants you to lose, it’s that they don’t want to win. We playing COD, I don’t necessarily want u to lose but I’m tryna win so I’m gon kill your ass 😂 same in life. The reason lots of bad shit happens to you is, hear me out. It’s not because you are you, but it’s because of who you are, if that makes any sense. You can’t change anything associated with you without changing who you are because what you do and have IS ultimately an extension of who you are regardless of what the religious people may tell you. Sayyyy Idk you always have shitty relationships. Girls seem to lose interest in you after a while of being in a relationship and they leave you. This is literally LIFE FEEDBACK telling you that that is the kind of person you are. You get into relationships with girls n they lose interest and leave you. So IF you want to CHANGE that YOU need to become the kind of person that girls DONT lose interest in. Here’s the thing, I wouldn’t say life is a game, (life is life but of course don’t take it too seriously) but things work how they work and whether you believe it or not, everything is (everything works) exactly the way it’s supposed to. Of course there are situations that really shouldn’t be, but that’s how it’s supposed to be. Meaning you have to be accepting to change, if you’re trying a certain way to do something and it’s not working it’s NOT because you are you, it’s because if you want to create a certain outcome or result, the way you are trying to do it just is not the way to do it, that’s not how it works. So this is why I disagree with people that are like “just throw shit at the wall n hope it sticks”, just a little bit of digging into the principles of whatever you’re tryna do you would’ve figured out that that shit wouldn’t have stuck without even throwing it. Keep in mind I said principles of how the game works, not everyone’s opinions of their perceptions of why it should work the way they think it should. I’m talking the core principles of how the shit really works.
Anyway, If you want to change anything in your life, think about it. You have to change who you ARE. Like if you wanna become rich, or fit, or great at a hobby or anything, any kind of change you want, you have to change yourself, you have to become the kind of person you want to be. Put it this way. A person that is a shitty fortnite player isn’t gonna win any matches regardless of how bad they may want it. They have to become a great fortnite player, (which does stem from the desire of wanting to win matches), then they’ll win matches. see what I’m getting at? But the person losing matches loses em because of WHO THEY ARE, BECAUSE they are a shitty player. But the dud who’s WINNING em, it’s cause he’s a good player, it’s cause of WHO HE IS. So basically, ultimately, who you ARE does create your life. Someone who doesn’t make a lot of money, can’t make a lot of money. They have to become someone that CAN make a lot of money, aka learning about money and how to earn a lot of it, and then they can make a lot of money. The way life works is fair, but shit still ain’t fair. Cause yea, shit works how it works regardless of who you are or how you might think it works, but still, you just got a bigass advantage over the next guy that didn’t just read all this shit and doesn’t know, right? Here’s the cold truth, “life”doesn’t want you to lose. But it doesn’t want you to win either. It doesn’t give a fuck whether you become the most successful person on earth or whether you get hit by a fuckin bus when you’re 7 years old. It doesn’t fuckin care. reality is how it is regardless of who you are, the game works how it works regardless of what you think, what you believe, or what you think you believe. U gotta get that, and also, the past is the past, live for the moment. Don’t like the moment? Change it, change yourself, change your life.
Good talk, peace and prosperity, stay woke.

“We judge others by their actions while we judge ourselves by our intentions.”

Sadly true‼️
Existentially, we should all be judged by our actions.

Stop thinking, start living.
There's a quote that goes "If we knew the secret history of our enemies, we would find in them enough sorrow and suffering to disarm all hostility" and I often think about this all the time

Not necessarily complex. There are some pretty simple people out there. Their lives are probably as complex as their brains
i feel this all the time when im driving its weird
Thank You
im in CDL school im trying to become a garbage truck driver....and so today i drove a straight truck for the first time in the road. So the red light comes up i stop...im also learning manual for the first time...so when the light turned green the truck stall....i let go of the clutch too fast and the break. This guy behind me beeps at me and starts to yell he drives in front of me and is yelling at me....the truck says "driving school student" ...so i think umm he cant read or what but than i think that dude must be going through something in his life so i just keep going...trying to practice the truck lol as my instructor in the passenger seat.
Moral of the story: We live in a world where most people are generally unhappy or miserable. So a single act of random kindness wouldn’t hurt every now and then. Because we all tend to be a little selfish and controlled by our emotions.
not most what the hell
@@slimsauu389 nah, it is most.
This is why people should just stop giving birth all together. Idc if this ends humanity, we are all just too unhappy in this hell.
Many people show acts of kindness with the expectation of something in exchange.
@@joshuah345 Lmao have you lived in other countries or societies or at least studied them? Do you have enough money to travel the world enough to be able to confidently claim that "all" of humanity is this unhappy or are you just judging *all* of humanity based on the general population in your local area? Anyone who generalizes humanity just based on the people around them are undoubtedly ignorant so i hope you aren't one of them.
You know what would be cool and interesting? A movie that begins with one person as the main character and it always switches person like in this video. Bunch of different perspectives and stories to tell.
Vantage Point.. there.. but its a repetitive acts with various perspective, not a continuous story.. but the story progresses in time
hmm yeah, i do see a lot of flaws with the idea, but something simular with a number of main characters, maybe 4/5? Like a friendgroup of teens who experiences different emotions and reactions to the things that are happening to them. Or a squad of elderly people running away from their retirement home or something haha. Different perspectives and backgrounds to the characters. You get to see their reactions and thoughts very clearly like in this video and you see the consequences of their actions
There's a music video that shows different perspectives but it's not 100% of you were saying. It's by Joyner Lucas- Keep it 100
Like the book August?
@@uzairm3816 is it the book Wonder?
*"No one ever made a difference by being like everyone else."*
@Intelligently Stoopid I think in the capitalist world we live in where everyone is selfish and self-centered, that one liner has relevance. When someone does a bad thing to you, you decide it's normal to do a bad thing to others because that's how others treat you... hence this statement is telling you to not follow such destructive behaviour.
@Intelligently Stoopid It's funny, you might be the person that's different here going against 239 likes as of now. Yes, it's somewhat a platitude but it's true in a way. However you expose a paradox I think! On the one hand we need difference to make a change in something that's stagnant or stays the same. On the other hand, we benefit in following a laid out structure of success. And being different can either trap you or make you stand out in a good way. It's hard to navigate.
not one of these again...

It’s honestly scary to think about, we’re all the main character in our own story
Whenever you're getting annoyed at someone you don't necessarily know, pause and ask yourself if the situation could be dealt with using kindness and understanding. I'd be willing to wager that you will rarely regret that restraint.
I am 43. I have gone through most of my life with that attitude.
Unfortunately, experience has taught me that there are many cunts in the world who will abuse your kindness, understanding, and wish to cooperate.
After working for psychopath bosses, and with back-stabbing colleagues, I said no more.
A few people are kind, but the majority of people are selfish, amoral husks. I cannot tell the difference immediately, so the sane option is to act is they are cunts, until proven otherwise.
Hahaha. So first of all - what Gerhard Symons said. Second, that attitude won't get you far and won't make your life any easier. Nor will it change the people around you. You have your every right to be annoyed and angry at other people. That doesn't mean you should, but it also doesn't mean you can't.
Trust me I've tried this and do it from time to time and I've yet to see at least one time when that actually benefited me in any way.
Everybody has their own problems, man. You have yours, I have mine and if I don't know you and if I don't care about you, why would I even consider your problems before mine? I don't mean to sound like a douchebag but you should care about yourself first and if you do/did, you're probably not gonna run into trouble -> no need to be annoyed by others. Simple as that.
Gerhard Symons I specified people you don’t know. Fast-food workers, train staff, retail employees, etc. Kindness and understanding does not mean being a pushover, it means being able to evaluate a situation with empathy and choosing the appropriate response.
Sign up for the military and you can wager your life on your convictions. See how that works out.
@@threethrushes
I feel you on that coworker bullshit. I understand why people put up with it, but as long as I only have to take care of myself, I'll be damned if I make myself work with or for people who actively make my work life miserable. These damaged dildos who hate their own lot in life and need to see others as miserable as they are.
I'm pretty far from a successful self-made man, but I'm pretty far from starving too. I'll be dirt poor and smiling before I sign my ass away to another 9-5; life's too short to give my time to a cause I don't care about and there's just too many options these days, but using that time to build my own thing? The only waste of time there is the belt of watches I wear because nobody is telling me not to.

@@Eyy98976 the entire meaning of life is to enjoy it bruh what tf is ur mindset
I recently had a huge realisation that everyone has a hidden story.
A few months ago, I went on a cruise. On cruises, people are generally very friendly and people of all ages and races talk to each other and make friends for the duration of the voyage. On the first night, I got talking to this lady who was more than 15 years older than me. She was really happy and bubbly people and we hit it off immediately. The banter between her and her sister, and the banter between them and me was amazing, they were constantly joking and funning and laughing. After more than an hour of talking to them, I left thinking "what amazing people, you never see anyone so happy and joyful in 2019! I wish I could be like them!"
The next day, I happened to run into her again. I noticed she had a very long scar on her arm. It turned out she had had a VERY nasty car accident just four months earlier, when another driver had jumped the lights and T-boned her. She almost died and was in intensive care for weeks, with many fractures and damaged organs. She was still in an awful lot of pain, and every day was a huge struggle for her physically and mentally. And not only this, she'd recently been divorced only a year ago. Just 2 months after her near-fatal car accident, and therefore just weeks before the cruise, her boyfriend died of a heart attack.
This lady who I once envied for being so happy, was actually going through the lowest level of HELL, and laughing and joking was her way of trying to cope with the immense physical and mental pain she was in. Every minute to her was a painful struggle not to lose the will to live. And I thought she was the happiest person I'd met in 2019.
Just goes to show, doesn't it?
Sonder.
Steven Power She is the happiest person, because she doesn't let sadness steal her happiness from her. Life is hard for everyone on the planet and we all have different heartaches & obstacles, but the people who are happy within themselves remain so even throughout all of these sad times.
holy shit. Thank you so much for sharing this little story.

“The grass isn’t always greener on the other side”
- One of my favorite quotes from my Mom
Cole Robertson, that’s exactly what I told my friend before he sold his mansion in a really nice part of LA to move to that open desert area on the other side of the Hollywood hills. He sent me a text the day after moving that just said “Wow, you weren’t joking!?!🗿
It still needs mowing.
"It's greener where you water it."
can you explain the quote please? (i don’t mean to be rude)
@@doombuggie2923 No problem! What it implies is that we as people often think others have it better then ourselves, when in reality everyone has to deal with their own struggles. We are mistaken for believing that we are the only ones suffering, believing that our metaphorical lawn is the only lawn that is full of dried up grass compared to others, which may seem to have a lawn that is full of green grass. In reality, others lives (the lives that seem better than our own) aren’t as green and bright as they really are, as in the end we (for the most part) all suffer equally as human beings, just in different ways. I hope this makes sense!

Way harder and more complicated than you think love
@@silviamomanyi4169 Well, I'd like to think the message of the video is to show that we should always take an extra moment to consider the endless possibilities of horror anyone could have experienced before interacting w/ us. The fact is, we tend to give people less credit than they deserve. Everyone sees themselves as the protagonist of their own story jst trying their best to make it through a complex life. If someone lashes out at you verbally who's not a part of your daily life, respond w/ the genuine kindness they'd least expect & you'll probably make their day a little less bitter. It'll probably make your life a bit better too.. Also note, there are times when war is necessary; threats of physical harm to you or ur family.. Finding the balance to it all can make the experience of life a whole lot less painful
I sometimes sit in my room for hours re-thinking the interactions I’ve had that day and what these people who fell into my life have been through. There’s so many possibilities, it keeps my brain busy and my heart tender

@Mike I like your way of explanation. Human mind is very narrow. Even in the physical ailments there are illnesses perceived differently. Everyone know cancer is terrible and they think it is the worse. But it all comes down to where the cancer is located. In my opinion,brain tumor which might be even non cancerous is so much worse than cancer in most parts of the body. I think intestines are an exception. Because brain rules everything and there is not a soft tissue to get there. Diabetes too. Inflammatory and autoimmune disorders should be more considered. There are so many debilitating illnesses that are NOT visible and they are the worst because people suffer in silence. Sorry for the rant, i am just really f..ing tired of this society....

being pressured to not think your situation isn't bad by society, just cause other people have it worse.
@@annabelleharvey6730 it is hard to determine what is worse or what is worst. I just think for the matter of recognition, autoimmune disorders are the worst because they are hardly worldwide recognised. I come from a small and corrupted country where politicians always take everything and health care system suffers the most. The second one is the school system. In my country are people that have ai disorders sent to psychiatrist. It is very toxic out there. Everyone is burnt out,only politicians are happy. Health is the biggest treasure but once you start losing it,the society makes it even worse. You really have to be a millionaire to get a decent health care and to afford healthy food, health gadgets and supplements and what not...

This is why I always advocate for empathy, which I think everyone deserves.
Takura Buysse ♥️
You don’t need empathy especially if no one showed you it in life.....
You can’t empathize with people you know nothing about, but you can treat them with human decency.
@Michael P they're probably having a bad day or are currently in a bad situation
Except: Gaddafi, Mugabe, Kim Jong-un and Osama Bin Laden, who you imperial racists love to hate.
That’s why every time I go out, I try to be as nice and polite as I possibly can to strangers. Because everyone is dealing with something and everyone is struggling through the grueling reality that is life.
Be nice to everyone you meet - we’re all fighting a hard battle
I actually think the same, when I was a child I used to imagine how people life was, for example, If I saw a woman i would ask myself if she was married or maybe have kids or even if she was having a bad day, so it became an habit to me to try to be gente and patience with other people.
Srry for my bad English uwu
Jenn uwu same!! I just like to think of how others are living, it’s just really interesting for me and a good experience to learn that people have to deal with things u don’t know about haha but anyways I hope u have a great day :D (ur English is better than most people actually so applause to u xD)

I don’t know how to word this to get the effect I want, or even if I write the right words if the creator will ever see them but...Watching these videos have given me the weirdest feeling...feeling like I’m not alone in the way I think about things and analyze life because I’m alone all the time. Basically, I just want to give a genuine thank you. Not one of those awkward ones you give to someone who holds the door open for you. A serious thank you. Why? I can’t describe it, but knowing I’m not the only person who has a hard time expressing what I truly mean, makes me feel not as suffocating. Thank you, and sorry I can’t explain well enough why and how you made an impact.

As you get older you start to realize how alone you really are. It's just you and your thoughts.
Party PETE I relate .. But ur not alone { We’re both alone} which makes it less ugly 🖤
And people.pretend they are not in the company of others. Hahaha.
I really want people face the reality in themselves or maybe I really don't, cause I dont think I'd like to see the ugliness of it.
Party PETE me and my thoughts do much better than a room of people. I prefer it that way as much as I can.
This is way I read books.
They allow me to stand by and peer over the shoulder of another individual and experience life through their eyes.
precisely!
Tldr: dont stand in a line while walking in a group
downthecrop Lol XD
Right? Like, that poor kid and what a nice family for all walking with him, but don't block the fucking street.
This also applies to driving. Don't block all the lanes with slow traffic.
"Sonder : The profound feeling of realizing that everyone, including strangers passed in the street, has a life as complex as one's own, which they are constantly living despite one's personal lack of awareness of it." :)

This breaks my heart. The other day I had to make a very difficult and life changing decision to give my 2 children up for adoption so that they could have the best life possible. They had gone through a lot of trauma through my ex and require a lot of one to one attention. I am pregnant, and having a new baby in the home would make them very unhappy.
On this particular day, I had saw them for the first time since giving them up. I had to say goodbye to them not knowing when my last goodbye could be. I walked to the bus stop on the rain, I was heavily pregnant and was very tired from being on my feet all day. I just wanted to be home.
All the seats in the bus shelter were taken up, and the bus was running late. I had been standing at the gate for half an hour but just as the bus pulled up I had to move because some man was blowing smoke in my face. As the gates opened there was a scramble to get on, and out of the blue some random woman shoved me away. I turned around and she started yelling at me because apparently some old lady was there before me. I calmly tried to explain that I was there ages before her but gave in as she didn’t stop shouting. I got on the bus and sat down, the old lady wasn’t bothered and sat down opposite me. But as the woman got on the bus she continued to yell insults on me, claiming I was on the wrong bus and directing me to one that went towards the lower end of town. I must’ve cried for half the journey, I was broken. Why was this woman being so horrible to me? Have I not already suffered enough? I just couldn’t understand why someone could be so inconsiderate. Eventually I stopped crying and I looked over to the old lady who sat opposite me, I noticed that her shopping bag was torn at the bottom and things were going to fall out once she stood up. I looked down at my own shopping, “I am a lot younger than her” I thought “and it would pain her more to have to bend over to pick things up than it would pain me to carry my items by hand”. So I proceeded to empty my bag and gave it so her, she was very grateful to receive my help. I just thought to myself, I won’t let that woman destroy me. No matter how broken I feel or how bad my day has been, there is always time to be kind to someone else. I could have stopped that old ladies day from going from bad to worse, and that bought me a lot of happiness knowing that I was better than the woman who had no consideration what so ever.
Thanks for sharing this story.
And horrible people is everywhere
Becca your story is really inspiring and i really hope that things get better for you soon💕
This story sounds fake and i usually say something mean like no one asked but this video has inspired me to be a better person so ill just say, cool story bro.
@@ghhbvhfrdfggfgnjih4591 I hate how pregnant women ask for pitty. Like duh,it is no that hard to plan ahead and not get knocked up. But yea, cool story.
I really like how you convey a different message in each and every video in such a creative way
Tbh the fact that most people don't know or get this saddens me. I was born in a very polite family, I was raised to think for others and to think that little things can change someone, just like a domino. I hope everyone have a good day! ☺️
This truly changed my mindset. Thank you. I always unintentionally think people want to be mean to me or do nothing with me and I forget that everyone else have problems of their own and things running through their head.
This makes me feel like most people are suffering. And every where you go, you hear “you’re not alone”.
But it comes off in a “Everyone hurts, suck it up” attitude. I feel like this is a sugar coated way to say it.
I think the point is , that you never know what someone else is going through and that holding on to those negative feeling as if they were intent on hurting even if they were it's better to not think that way and try our best to let it go . forgiving others and not holding a grudge is in a way good for you. And you will most likely avoid doing that same thing to others
“Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a great battle.” Philo of Alexandria
Maybe the dislikers is having a bad day... Have a good rest of the day dudes.
Its all just energy and vibration. Vibrate high and you will experience life in a different light. Life is supposed to be fun, you are all so busy feeling like shit that you miss out on how to banter, and have fun, and laugh and joke and see things in the light.
shut up lol
Exactly. We give too much power to the negatives of life that we tend to overlook the greatness and positives. We are in control of our thoughts and emotions, and not the other way around. We shall not give a voice to the bad, negative thoughts and emotions.
Let see when life hit you hard,wonder would you keep havin fun 😁
Empathy is such a special artform when you are dealt so much of your own downfalls. "Maybe they're just having a bad day" is a powerful thought.
"Maybe he's having a bad day. Have a good rest of a day." Perfect idea to keep in mind every day
If one wishes to be treated as a doormat.

Yet some don't realize they're the villain of someone else's
This is one of those things I'd think about and talk to myself about in the shower for no reason
These stories are so meaningful and touching. So much talent. Thank you for putting these out. I’m at a point in life where I feel lost. I hope we can all find happiness and not take our anger out on others.
"The narrator has a soothing voice i sincerely hope he keeps narrating such stories for the sake of humanity and these stories one day would knock some sense into us"
But a lot of times when you come in the position of the other people you put yourself last.
I mean someone speaks bad at you and because you understand him you don't get offended.
But as much as you do it the more it will consume your energy and happiness?
I don't know how to explain it but in the end you can't be nice to all people ( i mean even the ones that treat you bad).
I alwayd have this thoughts as in the video...but in the same time i don't knoe how to react on someone who treats me bad.
You're right we're humans so we simply can't be kind to everyone. But at least we can try. I think especially on the days we're feeling well we should try helping others feeling well as well, no matter if it is through long talks, just a smile or a couple of friendly words. If we act like this then hopefully there'll be someone who will do the same thing for us when we aren't feeling well
@@sophiegerbet8126 Here's how I like to see it. You should treat others with respect and kindness until they give you a clear and concise reason not to. Everyone deserves respect because they've done nothing wrong to you, and if someone obviously might not have known better, or they're just trying to live their life and they happen to get in the way, that's nothing you should get upset about. But, if someone is doing something with clear malicious intent, or for some reason they don't have the capacity to treat you with the same respect you're willing to treat them with, then they deserve contempt.
No one can ever be that perfect human being who is always kind, compassionate and happy. We can only strive to be the best of our abilities with the limits of our own life experiences.
Things will go wrong, without a doubt, but I do believe as long as you stay true to yourself, it really can't be that bad.
Being kind to everyone isn't necessarily a good thing. People who treat others poorly do not deserve kindness, as tolerance will only allow their self-centered behaviors to persist within society.
For the people who receive kindness in exchange for their self-centered ways, there are two likely outcomes: either they reflect on their actions and feel guilty about only thinking of themselves, or they take advantage of the kindness and believe it simply gives them permission to continue without changing their behavior. Which outcome happens depends on how conscientious the individual is.
@Mark Donald Thanks, I didn't know that. Still I rather ask myself "What would Jesus do". Always a great solution - even if not always an easy one.
I literally just almost bumped into a guy tonight, I was waiting for a traffic light at a T-junction and was in my mind reflecting on a sub-optimal performance at training today and didn’t realise an older man in his late 50s on his bike behind waiting to cross the other way. He said “Hello” which sounded more “Gtfo my way” and gave a death stare as he cross the road when I turned around and made space for him. For a moment I thought about how easily I could have just kicked him off his bike midway across the road and beat the life out of him for being so rude, when I realised there was no reason for me to even feel frustrated or affected by his inconsiderate behaviour towards me but rather he could have thought I was just as inconsiderate by blocking his path not knowing that I was unaware of his presence behind me. My uncle who was standing next to me observed the scenario and told me over our meal later that if he wanted he would have done something, but calmly shared with me that if someone does something bad to you and you don’t respond/receive it, it merelt echoes back to him. So just treat everyone like how you would treat yourself and life will go on anyway. Hope this resonates with you if you’re reading this, it will get better :-)
This was one of the few videos I've watched months ago when I subscribed. Watched it again, now that I'm binge watching this channel and is still one of the best videos about using logic and emotion, on RUclips. Of course there are terrible people out there, but everyone has a past, lives in the present and fears the future. Clearly shown here. The intertwined plots are so incredible well thought and pieced together, that gives me goosebumps every single time that I jump to another person. Every - single - time!!!
If I was a psychology, philosophy or teacher of social classes, I would show this video in the beginning and at the end of each school year to my class. Even youngsters could and should watch this! And leaving as much time needed of the class, to debate, discuss and discord this. At least I would try to no let my kids be another brick in the damned wall in their future...
You don't need to be a social influencer to pass your message. Though, everyone will ear, get and think about what you say, this video makes you feel and think afterwards, which will have a stronger abstract thought impact on the person. Art!
Brilliant, PoW. Brilliant!!!
This is “the law of the garbage truck”.
We’re like garbage trucks, We pick up bad things from everyone and keep them inside us till we can’t, then throw them onto others, this creates a cycle. But a way to beat this cycle, is to just smile and wave and tell that person to have a well day.
Knowing pain is the reason why we are kind to others 🖤
No it's not
@@johnholland2825 John Holland for most people its is, you wouldn't want to feel unloved or want people to be mean to you cause yk what's it like feeling that way you dont want them to feel that way its hard to explain but I hope you see what I'm trying to say :)
This is why we read stories. Why we write to penpals. Why we make friends. Why we fall in love.
To see life from another perspective and hopefully understand.
❤️
And this is why I place my feelings in the last priority box, even though I'm rarely negatively to strangers in the first place, but rather conciderate of them. I'll most likely forget the interaction anyway.
I could grant myself one wish, it would be to give all humans telepathy. Imagine not having to communicate in words, but emotions. I don't think we would feel as much pain anymore. We would be able to help each other so much better.
Careful bro, this power can also be used for bad things and probably disastrous
It's called empathy bro
Very good point I never thought of, that communicating by emotions is telepathic
I rewatch this beautifully sad and heartfelt video every once in a while. It speaks so deeply to me and based on the comments I read, impacts others just as much.
The 2nd Agreement: “Don’t take anything personally.”
And that's why everybody is hating on everyone while they repeat the proces to.
The cycle of hatred. How can it be stopped?
@@Young_Dab Humanity's extinction. Plain and simple.
@@Young_Dab You eliminate the genetic code from the gene pool which predisposes individuals to mindsets which promote hatred. This could have some unforeseen consequences, however. (That's assuming the logistics behind such a method were ever deemed ethical enough for widespread adoption, which seems highly unlikely in modern society.)
Thank you for this video. Lately, I've been caught up in petty things in my life. I've had a rich life of 68 years, I'm still working full time, survived stage 4 cancer 16 years ago, and so much to look forward to. Again, thank you.
One act of forgiveness . One smile is all that it takes !

Totally works in a war zone, dipshit.
I live in Nepal, retired from the US. People are so poor and so kind I decided to buy rice or at least recharge people's phones, whatever I can do during this difficult time. I have 4 helpers for just me. So, every time I gave a little help to people I felt so happy. It's actually addictive, but not to give to your kids or anyone who could pay you back. Just random people. It feels amazing to do things like that. I can actually feel it in my stomach like a child at Christmas.
Remember to always be nice, you don't know most people, even if you think you know them. You don't know how your words can influence them, you don't know how your words can change peoples minds. So instead of saying something bad and make things worse, be nice. It costs you nothing, but it can save lifes.
such a good comment.
Everyone’s fighting a battle you know nothing about.
Be kind, always.
I think about this alot. My moms like this always thiking everything is against here. *There is a line at the store* my mom: "what are all these people doing here dont they have anything better to do.." she says in anger and i always tell her "well what are we doing here than? We are no diffrent" but she usually ignores it. It kinda pisses me of. That ignorance of thinking everything is against you while they are just doing the same as you.
But thats just how my mom is and i dont think she will ever change... (still love her tho)
This is a much needed reminder. I find it easy to emphatize with strangers, yet it feels impossible to understand people who truly care about me.
Man I love your videos, their topics, accuracy, style, everything about them, but I mostly skip watching your new videos because I don't want to ruin such an amazing experience when I'm going on with my day and have things to do, so I come to your channel once in a while and watch your new videos.
Thanks, and keep writing great stuff!
Everyone lives as if they are the center of the universe
They are.....of their own.
These videos are very therapeutic. I try to keep the valuable messages these videos give and implement them in my life. But i am but a lowly sinner and sometimes it is hard. But i will still try.
there should be a class period of just watching and learning simple stuff like this.. believe it would change society.
The vibe you gives off goes around trust me. Trust him.
Beautiful i feel that when little obstacles like waiting due to others is the universe telling me "hey you need to slow down and use this small time stop to reflect on what's going on in your life". And then I feel calm come over me as I reflect whats going on in my life.
Thank you this video and all your videos are straight mind candy...
