Why in the world is this beautiful ladies age mentioned at all? Don't underestimate people because they have gray hair. Life is about getting up and putting one foot in front of the other and keep on living. It's rough sometimes, that's when you have to kick yourself in tail and do life anyway. Just like anyone else. I see beauty and wisdom and the sweetest soul. Thank you for sharing with us all.
What a wonderful comment. So glad you see it. Sadly there are also folks from that era who are still hateful activists who never matured from the 60’ sand 70’s. See the democrat party. They always hated this country.
I’m 72 years old, playing guitar with a bunch of friends; people I love. We perform at retirement centers and homes for the aging…older than me. We never finish a performance that our hearts are not warmed by these folks who have lived amazing lives. We share beautiful musical moments and leave uplifted. Thanks for sharing. Just beautiful!! ❤❤
I love that you all care to share that kind of love for others...it's something I love to do too. Back in Wyoming there's a little get together in the senior center mostly bluegrass..my second love..for anyone who wants to listen..or play. To me..this is like a little piece of heaven.🎶💜
@melindacoombs2771 Just found this on youtube...I'm 73 and have quite the same feelings...I'll be praying for you both ...may you continue to enjoy the best of God's Love for you both ....also I am a 25 plus year Guiterist....I play fair...love to sing...Love Jesus with all my being.....just know that some people wish they could be like you ......Much love and prayer......Thomas...
Sweet! As an older woman, I appreciate this. Once you get a certain age, society writes you off. This is proof WHY you don't judge us for our grey hair! Thanks for this!
Only in America, is age not really honored much. Other cultures highly honor age. I see it too tho. I appreciate u whoever u are. We are precious no matter each season of Life. God's says something like, for every season there is beauty. Blessings to You from this stranger😂🌹🪽
@@rachelcook5697 I totally agree with you in everything you said in this comment. In the eyes of God we will always be beautiful to him, no matter how old we are, blessings from another stranger🙏🏼🤗💕
Sadly, I feel this, too. With every new wrinkle and each new gray hair, some people seem to think I am well on a road to insignificance. Not me, though and not MY people 😊
I am 72, I own and run a small lodge on the river in Montana. I have two Harley bikes. Almost died 2.5 years ago when I wrecked. I am back on my bike. I live hard and love hard. Thanks for a great song.❤ getting old is not for the faint of heart. But I'll take it!
So I would love to know where your bed and breakfast is. It sounds like visiting with you would be as fun as trying out the bed and breakfast particularly for a Solo Traveler. Riding a motorcycle would be a little scary for me but horses would be another thing and chatting with a 72 year old woman bike rider would be comforting and hopeful about the future for the 64 year old woman who will never give up trying new things or growing or give in to the stereotypes about older women...
Just found you. Gonna share this on Gab. You shared that beautifully! I'd like to hang out with you and harmonize with you all day! I'd never feel that comfortable in front of a camera though! You seem to be a strong woman. Thanks for sharing your journey. I'll look for you again.
My husband is 94 and I am 79- we take care of one another too. He still works as a Professor teaching Spanish and I am a so called retired Registered Nurse- nurses really never retire😳🥰❣️
Beautiful! Thank you for your music. I just turned 70 & I am looking to create a simple life for the first time in my life. Love, Joy, Peace, & Blessings in Absolute Abundance to All! ✨💖✨
We're all going through the aging process. I'm 71 and you can't help thinking about this every day. You're a great example on how to go through all this with dignity and joy. Thank you! ❤
I'm a guitar playing 24 year old who can't imagine getting older, I didn't think I'd make it past 15, nor did I want to. Every year I'm alive is a surprise to me. This video came across my recommended feed and I clicked on it, completely not expecting the thought that came into my head watching you play this, "Maybe I do want to grow old." Thank you for the inspiration. The idea of growing older and still playing guitar is a wonderful reason to stay alive💚
The Good Lord put that desire in your heart and gifted you with that talent. He loves you so much that He died for you personally! Get to know Jesus and His love for you. He's all you need as a reason to wake up everyday! Find Him while He still may be found. In His Love be blessed.❤
You brought me to tears Melinda. I‘ m so grateful for able to see and to hear you. You are such a beautiful soul, a gift for us. Your message in Jonnas Video has touched me deep in my heart and this here too. Thank you very much 🙏❤️
The video message that you sent to Jonna and the sentiments that you have shared here touched my heart so deeply. You are such a beautiful person, inside and out and an incredibly talented musician too! Sending so much love to you from New Zealand. ❤️
“Maybe I can mess it up better.” I love your attitude, the sound of your guitar, and the emotion you put into it - I haven’t heard a magical song in a long while that made me feel awestruck.
Well! I couldn’t be more relaxed and happy in this moment after watching this little video. Beautiful woman singing a beautiful tune, playing a beautiful guitar, against a beautiful backdrop.
You have such a beautiful voice! There is something so rich about it. There is a story quality in your voice. And you play the guitar beautifully! Thank you so much for letting us experience your wonderful talent. We need each other, and we need people from every generation! We have devalued the wisdom of white hair, of grandmothers and grandfathers, and it’s been to our loss and detriment! We have to wake up and open up that treasure again, because we are not whole without it! Love to you. Please keep on being this beautiful influence that we so badly need in this country! 🩷🩷🩷🎼🎼🎼

Thank you Melinda for sharing your gifts! I took my Granny Mary out of a nursing home and cared for her six months. She passed away peacefully in her bed and felt so much love from me and my 3 little sons. LOVE IS THE ANSWER TO EVERYTHING…..Sending hugs, prayers, and much love to you❤❤❤❤
❤ It's now out there Jonna, the cosmic force will make your dream come true. A cosmic coalition between you and Melinda is inevitable ❤❤❤ Blessings from Ireland ❤❤❤
How wonderful you are! I'm from Russia. You are a very sunny and kind person. I want to be the same in my old age, and now I’m 16. Continue to be happy ❤️! Now I have a dream to visit Utah...
Today I have to be greatful to RUclips for putting you in the recommended list. Thank you for your simple song and thoughts. I closed my eyes, listened and my heart pounded a bit faster, then my body was moved by your music 🎶 🎵. The thoughts you shared were the dessert 🍨 🥧 🍦 🍡 🍧. Thank you ma'am 😊 🎉❤
Very well said, Medicineheart ❤ Blessings to ALL 🙏 We can get through this ! I turned 70 in January. I'm Thanking God right now for my wonderful parents. They're both up in heaven now and HOW I MISS them both it makes my heart ache. A great church I attended in the 1990's in Marysville WA brought those who desired to go as a group to an Old Folks home, now called a Nursing home. We would sing Gospel songs for them my Pastor new the old songs. These wonderful elderly would perk up and I could saw the light of God resurrect inside them! I'm very glad for that great experience. I will never forget how peaceful I felt there. And how great it was we sang the old gospel hymns. So they could sing along or just hear them and light up with a glow of happiness ❤❤❤ 😊
If this was a 20 yr old, she would have no issues being appreciated. Im not saying some 20 yr olds deserve respect for being special too but once your a female in their 30s.. your written off by age 35. Old women got no place on media. This lady is one of the coolest ladies Ive seen. So glad to found this video. I hope to keep rocking music to her age.. even if no one else cares about it.
Beautiful ❤ thank you for sharing. I’m a nurse too and I cared for my dad in his last years in my home. He died in my arms. It was the greatest gift for both of us. It encouraged me to work in a hospice. It’s an honour to be with someone who’s leaving this world. I wish everyone had someone to hold them till the end. ❤🙏
Thanks! You are an inspiration. Due to childhood trauma, I dropped music for 50 years. In the pandemic, I determined to put an end to the nonsense of being bound by fear, and here I am. In my 3rd year. God has provided whatever is needed so I can focus on what matters: work our gifts to give them back to the world.
Your words brought Joy today!! Please be validated, and very encouraged. God can do anything! Allow Healing, and Fresh reset... He gave you Gifts! Dare to give back. Much Love to you. 🕊💓🙏🎶
I am 77 ...just happen across your channel lookin for the song with the lyrics gotta keep traveling on in the chorus..cant remember the whole song but l lo e that song if you know it. Love your sprit girl.
Thank you, Jonna.. she is definitely beautiful. Love her sweet and gentle soul.. we all need this today. Blessings sweet new friend Melinda. I’m just venturing on 79 this year..❤️. Keep doing what you are doing, we need your light more than ever….
In tears from beginning to end. Please continue to bless us with your wisdom, art, and beauty. We desperately need your message in this world. Thank you for the love. ❤
You cannot out psychologize the Bible for God not to throw you into hell for all eternity. In other words, you cannot come up with a good enough excuse here and now, so you will not be able to on judgment day. If you say you did not want to be born, God is going to say you should’ve been born again, that means become a Christian so that’s not gonna work. And there are no other excuses try to think of one. So now you know for the first time in your life, that the Bible is smarter than you and it is a steel trap, smarter than all of mankind, What should you do then? So at least investigate and look to see that these things are true, because right now you just learned the Bible is smarter than you, and you will be accountable for your life on judgment day before God! Prophecy, the Bible is 27% prophecy, that’s future history written in advance. God‘s really sticking his neck out to get it cut off if he’s wrong, but he hasn’t been wrong about the thousands of prophecies that were fulfilled, so he’ll be right about the end of the world prophecies as well and you’ll have no excuse on judgment day for not looking for truth! Caveat: you cannot look for God in times of chaos says Isaiah 45:19, so you better do it now. In other words,You’ll be too worried about your own survival when chaos hits, than your eternal destiny! Statistic probability of 40 writers writing the Bible with zero margin of deviation, proves God wrote the Bible through the 40 writers! God authored the Bible! DNA does not auto encrypt, the code writer is outside of the code of the 3300000,000,000 lines of computer code in the human genome of our DNA! So who wrote the code to such sophistication? 1,000,000 seconds is 12 days, 1,000,000,000 seconds is 32 years! That’s the difference between 1 million and 1 billion! One person’s DNA could fill the Grand Canyon up to 50 times full of books. John 21:25 “I suppose everything Jesus did, the world wouldn’t have enough room for the books telling of it.“ this verse would be fulfilled! Psalm 139:16 “in my members you have written many books“! Psalm 139 is about the human body!
So glad and grateful for the gift of your simple but powerful message. This June makes 70 trips around the sun for me, 'retired G.I. from the '70s and I think it's finally dawned on me that we all have an expiration date at some point. But how we live and love one another makes a big impact on what comes afterwards. Thank you again for your gift this morning.
Awoke to an awesome starry night to go watch Gods sunrise. I play god a song everyday. Today I’m playing your song to God this morning. NahaloNui loha grandma
I was alone tonight. The love of my life started a night job. We haven’t been away from each other for 6 months when we got married. I’m 71. I don’t know why it takes so long to find your true love. But now we have Jesus and each other. Your song was beautiful helped me get through the night. Thank you.
Я Русская, не хочу и не желаю никаких еврейских героев.Наша Россия имеет своих великих героев, которые жертвовали собой ради человечества будучи абсолютными аттеистами, они спасами мир от тотального уничтожения без надежды на какую то жизнь после смерти.
God probably thinks it's cringy how we both lament about time and waste it/fail to appreciate it at the same time. His gift here is the lesson to appreciate every moment you're given. None are promised. Each is blessing.
Cheers from Oklahoma! Thank you for Jonna’s words of support for you. We are all alike seeking the brighter things in life. Peace and harmony! Hallelujah for all of Jonna’s loving RUclips family
I'm so glad Jonna Jinton mentioned your RUclips channel. I loved your message at Christmas time which she played today. You are a lovely soul. Really enjoyed the song as well as the heartfelt message. Love & blessings to you & all. Liliane
Hi Melinda! Also coming from Jonna Jinton's channel and I loved this song and you are an amazing lady. Thank you for you warm words. Warm greetings from The Netherlands!❤
If the younger generation would get their heads on straight and ask the older generation's questions I bet this would be a much better world! Thank you for reaching out with your music ! Very much appreciated!❤
Very fine, indeed! The strumming sounded wonderful, then I noticed the twelve strings; and, then she comes in later with the exceptional picking. ❤ My heart rose an octave with each phrase! What an amazing place to be and share.
I am 65 and trapped in an ailing body wracked with pain that keeps me from the sea that I love and the mountains I crave. I came across you accidentally and want to thank you for taking me to the places I can no longer go. ❤
Have you heard of virtual reality tours? I don’t know if you’re financially able to purchase a headset ! It will take you on walks and nature to the mountains, to the sea all the places you’re craving now that you can’t go to any longer. I think it would be good to lift your spirits. It’s an avatar sort of thing and you’re actually walking around in nature and at the beach maybe you can try it ?! If possible I hope your pain gets more tolerable, and your imagination never stops. Blessings.❤️❤️❤️❤️☮️👋😊🎸🥁
I'm not far behind you and wondering how many more years I will have by the seashore that defines and completes me. (With respect to a previous commenter, VR is not nothing, but it's... not the shore either.) Will keep you in my thoughts and hope for better things ahead for you.
So thankful for what you shared with your beautiful guitar playing, your singing, your thoughts, observations and your wisdom. I clicked on this right before going to bed. I'm 61... just finally met a beautiful man 2 years ago. There's big challenges we're facing. But we have both found true love... the greatest treasure. ❤️
I'm 70 and I just love how this lady addresses the often shunned realities of the golden years. She demonstrates how we can age gracefully and encourage other members of the senior club not to worry, but rather, just be happy. The true way to be happy is to make others happy. I play the guitar as well and I certainly enjoyed that rendition.
She's beautiful not only the talent of music but in her heart and soul you know this with her way of talking. She's found the peace I have been chasing all my life. Thank you.
Ive been so frustrated with the world driving home from work. Thinking about my insane rent increase where I lived for the last 6 years... No clue what to play when I got home and had a shiftie... Then I saw this when I opened RUclips and it's been healing to see you do this ❤ forreal too many people that aren't of the essence making big choices for all of us. I just wanna sit by a campfire with you and remember what it means to be human
Oh what a beautiful bridge! Your music shows that our spirit never gets old if we keep feeding it. You provide nourishment for souls through your music. Never stop.
Absolutely gorgeous guitar playing, beautiful voice and awesome lurics. Thank you so much for sharing your talents and gifts of beauty music energy and soul with us.
Восхитительно 🎸 👏😇долгих лет вам жизни ,наполненной творчеством, гибкости пальчиков ваших и ясности ума !!!!!!!! Привет вам от увлеченной 🎸 58 летней Петербурженки из Великой и самой великодушной Росси 😊
Thank you Jonna for recommending this beautiful soul to us!!! I am so thankful for her energy and love!!!! Love light and blessings to you Miss Melinda❤
You are so cute. Such small messages, but SUCH WISDOM. Kids, slow down wanting to grow up. Enjoy the outside sounds of nature, the beauty God made (the visual)and the people that God put in our path. Amen!
I'm So Sorry To Hear That, May GOD Be With You In The Coming Seconds, Minutes, Hours, Days, Weeks, Months, And Years To Come, Just Know That JESUS Loves You, And JESUS Is Coming Back, If You Don't Get Right You'll Get Left Behind, You Better Get Ready, GOD Bless You!!!!!!!!!!
Revelation 21:4 (KJV) And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
I’m 77 and live in a little jungle community in Hawaii completely off grid. I have animals chickens and feed the wild birds on my tiny home farm. I love your song as it reflects what I love and who I am. Just a simple girl. ThankYou ❤
Jonna sent me and I am glad she did young lady, we are getting up there, I'll be 79 in February, it's quite a journey. I too have been living the simple life for many years, alone with my dogs.
She said it all! I worked in a nursing home caring for them, it's true it's not about you or your paycheck it's about them! I've seen girls walk into a room and argue and complain with residents and never understand why they were there. I got more joy and compassion from listening to them, I'd ask them all kinds of questions, and see them keeping on keeping on and many no family to visit and like she said adjust to their environment and the people around them. I didn't realize though that some things that bothered me till I quit working there and they're the ones going through it. Most of which were other co-workers and the place I worked was considered a really good place. This song beautifully played I love the sound of box guitar. Good song and I had to smile every time she did beautiful smile beautiful lady beautiful soul! ❤
Hello Ms. Melinda, I'm Michael, sitting behind my drum kit adding some percussion to your pretty song. It reminds me of a band I played in back in the early 80's called "Woodborne"...a band of longtime friends that had a lot of spiritl to it, like your song. It's music like that that could possibly keep the tether from completely snapping and the generations let go of something so valuable as to change laws, end wars, fight political injustices and retain the power of the people like it is written in our constitution, etc.. Just wanted you to know I was way down here where the only hills are sand dunes, here in the Florida panhandle between Panama City and Pensacola. Been here since 1966 when I was 5yo, 58 years ago. I thank ya for sharing some of your heart and soul by way of your music. May God continually bless u and your husband and blanket you both with His protection if it is His will to do so through our awesome saviour, Jesus, I pray- amen.
❤ Who says people get old ? ❤
Isn’t she just BEAUTIFUL 😍!!!

Cool grandma. Glad some of your generation never stopped being as cool-and free-as they were back in the 70s and 60s.
Amen to that! What a beautiful soul she is.. ✨💖✨

Thank you Melinda for sharing your gifts! I took my Granny Mary out of a nursing home and cared for her six months. She passed away peacefully in her bed and felt so much love from me and my 3 little sons. LOVE IS THE ANSWER TO EVERYTHING…..Sending hugs, prayers, and much love to you❤❤❤❤
Spending precious time with our elders is truly an honour. Blessings to you from Ireland ❤
Totally agree with you Cherirose, greetings from Ireland
You are a lady worthy of many loving hugs.
From Russia with love! You best grandma!❤😊
❤ “Always good to mess up better.” Yes yes yes. Thank you for you, Melinda.
👏 👏 👏 ❤
I loved it when she said that!
❤❤❤
❤❤❤
Thanks for sharing Melinda with us, Jonna! ❤
I agree

♥️❤️💗
❤❤❤❤❤❤🤗
❤ It's now out there Jonna, the cosmic force will make your dream come true. A cosmic coalition between you and Melinda is inevitable ❤❤❤ Blessings from Ireland ❤❤❤
Excellent. I'm a 71 year old man and still play and sing twice weekly with others in my age range. Your 12 string sound is lovely.
Keep on jamming!!! Youngster!! YOU 🎸🎤🎧🎸🥁🎹 ❤️❤️👋😊

Ach, mit 71 ist man doch noch rüstig und hat auch noch Flausen im Kopf 😂...Also lebe!!!!!!
Úžasnej člověk, jehož život má smysl a inspiruje ostatní být vyrovnanější a lepší....
Pohornyband...
How wonderful you are! I'm from Russia. You are a very sunny and kind person. I want to be the same in my old age, and now I’m 16. Continue to be happy ❤️! Now I have a dream to visit Utah...
I'm not sure everyone knows the power of a simple smile. Give them away all day everyday, and receive them with joy. Thank you for your Simple Song 😀!
Our smile is very effective it spreads love. It is our most important accessory
Amen! Contagious 😊
Beautiful ❤️ 💕 🙂
Today I have to be greatful to RUclips for putting you in the recommended list. Thank you for your simple song and thoughts. I closed my eyes, listened and my heart pounded a bit faster, then my body was moved by your music 🎶 🎵. The thoughts you shared were the dessert 🍨 🥧 🍦 🍡 🍧. Thank you ma'am 😊 🎉❤
Very well said, Medicineheart ❤
Blessings to ALL 🙏
We can get through this !
I turned 70 in January. I'm Thanking God right now for my wonderful parents. They're both up in heaven now and HOW I MISS them both it makes my heart ache.
A great church I attended in the 1990's in Marysville WA brought those who desired to go as a group to an Old Folks home, now called a Nursing home.
We would sing Gospel songs for them my Pastor new the old songs. These wonderful elderly would perk up and I could saw the light of God resurrect inside them!
I'm very glad for that great experience. I will never forget how peaceful I felt there.
And how great it was we sang the old gospel hymns. So they could sing along or just hear them and light up with a glow of happiness ❤❤❤ 😊
Sometimes they manage to hit the nail on the head. I subscribed.
Same ❤
Ditto ❤
You rock and are truly more beautiful than most 20 yr olds. What treasures are lost when older people are ignored. God bless you!
If this was a 20 yr old, she would have no issues being appreciated. Im not saying some 20 yr olds deserve respect for being special too but once your a female in their 30s.. your written off by age 35. Old women got no place on media. This lady is one of the coolest ladies Ive seen. So glad to found this video. I hope to keep rocking music to her age.. even if no one else cares about it.
Agree 100%
My Wife and I really enjoyed listening to your incredible talent and 12 string guitar playing..Thank you for sharing your melody of life.
Beautiful ❤ thank you for sharing.
I’m a nurse too and I cared for my dad in his last years in my home. He died in my arms. It was the greatest gift for both of us. It encouraged me to work in a hospice. It’s an honour to be with someone who’s leaving this world. I wish everyone had someone to hold them till the end. ❤🙏
❤
I was with my nan 97 and my dad 85 as they passed, it was a privilege to be with them at that time... beautiful... 🕊💝🕊
Gee whiz...that was beautiful...what you shared. Really tugged on my heart strings. God bless you.
Thanks! You are an inspiration. Due to childhood trauma, I dropped music for 50 years. In the pandemic, I determined to put an end to the nonsense of being bound by fear, and here I am. In my 3rd year. God has provided whatever is needed so I can focus on what matters: work our gifts to give them back to the world.
Your words brought Joy today!! Please be validated, and very encouraged. God can do anything! Allow Healing, and Fresh reset... He gave you Gifts! Dare to give back. Much Love to you. 🕊💓🙏🎶
@CosasdeDios1089
You are an inspiration to me also
I am 77 ...just happen across your channel lookin for the song with the lyrics gotta keep traveling on in the chorus..cant remember the whole song but l lo e that song if you know it. Love your sprit girl.
❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you, Jonna.. she is definitely beautiful. Love her sweet and gentle soul.. we all need this today. Blessings sweet new friend Melinda. I’m just venturing on 79 this year..❤️. Keep doing what you are doing, we need your light more than ever….
You look so beautiful and free up in those mountains, with the blue sky overhead!
Sweet song. I like that you share the love for the elderly. Keep up that love for others and yourself.😊
Very nice song and sharing your life. You've found your simple life....keep walking your journey and sharing it with us.
Смотришь такие замечательные, созидательные, творческие видео, и мотивирует жить поживать и нести добро, любовь и созидание миру🎉
Привет из России, я не знаю о чем эта песня, но с большим удовольствием послушал и посмотрел на вас вы прелесть!!!
Слушай The National.
Ie cared for the elderly since I was 14. They only have polished the jewel of my life. Every one. Grandma
That’s a lovely message & am sure you’re a blessing to them as well!
In tears from beginning to end. Please continue to bless us with your wisdom, art, and beauty. We desperately need your message in this world. Thank you for the love. ❤
I’m soon to be 64 and I want to say to you your music is so comforting. We’re going to be ok. Thank you.
You cannot out psychologize the Bible for God not to throw you into hell for all eternity. In other words, you cannot come up with a good enough excuse here and now, so you will not be able to on judgment day. If you say you did not want to be born, God is going to say you should’ve been born again, that means become a Christian so that’s not gonna work. And there are no other excuses try to think of one. So now you know for the first time in your life, that the Bible is smarter than you and it is a steel trap, smarter than all of mankind, What should you do then? So at least investigate and look to see that these things are true, because right now you just learned the Bible is smarter than you, and you will be accountable for your life on judgment day before God!
Prophecy, the Bible is 27% prophecy, that’s future history written in advance. God‘s really sticking his neck out to get it cut off if he’s wrong, but he hasn’t been wrong about the thousands of prophecies that were fulfilled, so he’ll be right about the end of the world prophecies as well and you’ll have no excuse on judgment day for not looking for truth!
Caveat: you cannot look for God in times of chaos says Isaiah 45:19, so you better do it now. In other words,You’ll be too worried about your own survival when chaos hits, than your eternal destiny!
Statistic probability of 40 writers writing the Bible with zero margin of deviation, proves God wrote the Bible through the 40 writers!
God authored the Bible!
DNA does not auto encrypt, the code writer is outside of the code of the 3300000,000,000 lines of computer code in the human genome of our DNA! So who wrote the code to such sophistication?
1,000,000 seconds is 12 days, 1,000,000,000 seconds is 32 years! That’s the difference between 1 million and 1 billion!
One person’s DNA could fill the Grand Canyon up to 50 times full of books. John 21:25 “I suppose everything Jesus did, the world wouldn’t have enough room for the books telling of it.“ this verse would be fulfilled!
Psalm 139:16 “in my members you have written many books“!
Psalm 139 is about the human body!
Just thank you… your beautiful song, beautiful wisdom and beautiful soul.
"Mess up better" is a great inspirational quote. It means don't be afraid to act, make mistakes and grow!
So glad and grateful for the gift of your simple but powerful message.
This June makes 70 trips around the sun for me, 'retired G.I. from the '70s and I think it's finally dawned on me that we all have an expiration date at some point.
But how we live and love one another makes a big impact on what comes afterwards.
Thank you again for your gift this morning.
Gonna use that with my students. "Mess up better" ❤
Спасибо! Пойте чаще! Ждём новых видео !❤
Awoke to an awesome starry night to go watch Gods sunrise. I play god a song everyday. Today I’m playing your song to God this morning. NahaloNui loha grandma
I was alone tonight. The love of my life started a night job. We haven’t been away from each other for 6 months when we got married. I’m 71. I don’t know why it takes so long to find your true love. But now we have Jesus and each other. Your song was beautiful helped me get through the night. Thank you.
Keep Jesus in your heart. Pray for your husband every night. My Mom prayed for my Dad, when he worked nights. I was a child, now I understand.❤❤❤❤
Я Русская, не хочу и не желаю никаких еврейских героев.Наша Россия имеет своих великих героев, которые жертвовали собой ради человечества будучи абсолютными аттеистами, они спасами мир от тотального уничтожения без надежды на какую то жизнь после смерти.
@@fotonnot Don't speak/read your language ... Don't know what you shared.
God probably thinks it's cringy how we both lament about time and waste it/fail to appreciate it at the same time. His gift here is the lesson to appreciate every moment you're given. None are promised. Each is blessing.
Cheers from Oklahoma! Thank you for Jonna’s words of support for you. We are all alike seeking the brighter things in life. Peace and harmony! Hallelujah for all of Jonna’s loving RUclips family
Cheers Oklahoma. Hello from Alaska
Bless you ma... Thanks you for singing to me... I hope angels bring you the courage, hope and strength you need when you need it...
Much love
I'm so glad Jonna Jinton mentioned your RUclips channel. I loved your message at Christmas time which she played today. You are a lovely soul. Really enjoyed the song as well as the heartfelt message.
Love & blessings to you & all.
Liliane

Beautiful, thanks for taking us up to those mountains to hear your song and words about real love.
Thank you for this. Absoluletly beautiful. I am 70 still working as a nurse in a nursing home. I see these things everday.
Hi Melinda! Also coming from Jonna Jinton's channel and I loved this song and you are an amazing lady. Thank you for you warm words. Warm greetings from The Netherlands!❤
Dear Lady, thank you for blessing me with this very beautiful song❤️🧡💚
Your words, and song filled my Soul....I've recently retired trying to slow down and simplify my Life! Just let it happen without an agenda!🤗🧡
If the younger generation would get their heads on straight and ask the older generation's questions I bet this would be a much better world! Thank you for reaching out with your music ! Very much appreciated!❤
I’m 59 but when I grow up I want to be just like you!!!Beautiful!!
🤣👍🏻💪🏻👏🏻🌹🌹🌹
New subscriber from Jonna Jinton❤️your message is what every sad soul needs Thank you
Nice tune and love the 12 string sound. Keep playing and don't stop loving ❤
Agreed!
Very fine, indeed!
The strumming sounded wonderful, then I noticed the twelve strings; and, then she comes in later with the exceptional picking.
❤ My heart rose an octave with each phrase! What an amazing place to be and share.
Beautiful song. Beautiful guitar playing. Beautiful message. Thank you.
I am 65 and trapped in an ailing body wracked with pain that keeps me from the sea that I love and the mountains I crave. I came across you accidentally and want to thank you for taking me to the places I can no longer go. ❤
Have you heard of virtual reality tours? I don’t know if you’re financially able to purchase a headset ! It will take you on walks and nature to the mountains, to the sea all the places you’re craving now that you can’t go to any longer. I think it would be good to lift your spirits. It’s an avatar sort of thing and you’re actually walking around in nature and at the beach maybe you can try it ?! If possible I hope your pain gets more tolerable, and your imagination never stops. Blessings.❤️❤️❤️❤️☮️👋😊🎸🥁
You can also search RUclips for guitar or piano music that has beautiful drone video of sweeping landscapes...some are hours long.
I'm not far behind you and wondering how many more years I will have by the seashore that defines and completes me. (With respect to a previous commenter, VR is not nothing, but it's... not the shore either.) Will keep you in my thoughts and hope for better things ahead for you.
@@angelagunn7986 And also!!! Blessings to you in ur future!!! Keep shining ☮️❤️💪🕺💃🏻🎸
Try magnesium. Cured my pain. And I tried everything else.
So thankful for what you shared with your beautiful guitar playing, your singing, your thoughts, observations and your wisdom. I clicked on this right before going to bed. I'm 61... just finally met a beautiful man 2 years ago. There's big challenges we're facing. But we have both found true love... the greatest treasure. ❤️
You sound good on that jumbo 12 string. Keep at it.
You give me hope! I’ve been widowed for 5 years after a 38 year marriage. I’m sure my Prince Charming is lost on his way. 🤞🏼😆
CSNY vibes. A simple and beautiful song. Lefty too.
A little like “Wooden Ships”
I was checking that lefty too. Definitely CSNY vibes/ a bit of Neil, and more, and it's all hers- and it is GOOD.
I thought the same thing!! Really good sound and vibe!
Yup!
Hard to tell for sure - remember that cameras on screen side usually flip the video. But it looks like the script on the headstock is in reverse.
I'm 70 and I just love how this lady addresses the often shunned realities of the golden years. She demonstrates how we can age gracefully and encourage other members of the senior club not to worry, but rather, just be happy. The true way to be happy is to make others happy. I play the guitar as well and I certainly enjoyed that rendition.
She's beautiful not only the talent of music but in her heart and soul you know this with her way of talking. She's found the peace I have been chasing all my life. Thank you.
That which you chase...runs away from you...that which chases you..you run from. Just...let it find you.❤
You can too. I'm learning guitar. All Around Guitar, videos really teach slow and thorough. Practice daily.
Adorable💚
I so agree with you, felt the same way. She is indeed a beautiful person💕
@@melindacoombs2771wise words thank you sister
Ive been so frustrated with the world driving home from work. Thinking about my insane rent increase where I lived for the last 6 years... No clue what to play when I got home and had a shiftie... Then I saw this when I opened RUclips and it's been healing to see you do this ❤ forreal too many people that aren't of the essence making big choices for all of us. I just wanna sit by a campfire with you and remember what it means to be human
Wouldn't that be devine? Fireplace, music and soft singing....👍👍🎶💖
@@lyngruen8607 it would be Devine! I think we'd get along just fine. Cheers Lyn!
What you focus on expands. Choose your thoughts more carefully
You sure can play🎉😊
Beautiful 🎵 🎶 song.
Made my day a lot brighter.
Love and ✌️ peace
Reminds me of Neil Young's "Old Man". Love it!!!!
"Mess up better" - That really resonates with me!
Oh what a beautiful bridge! Your music shows that our spirit never gets old if we keep feeding it. You provide nourishment for souls through your music. Never stop.
Absolutely gorgeous guitar playing, beautiful voice and awesome lurics.
Thank you so much for sharing your talents and gifts of beauty music energy and soul with us.

You are so cute. Such small messages, but SUCH WISDOM. Kids, slow down wanting to grow up. Enjoy the outside sounds of nature, the beauty God made (the visual)and the people that God put in our path. Amen!
I cried when I heard you on Jonna’s channel. You are a special soul and I love you…unconditionally. Sending love from Vashon Island, Washington.

Lovely song & message; thanks.
I lost my darling wife to cancer a few months ago. Playing music helps me survive.
I'm So Sorry To Hear That, May GOD Be With You In The Coming Seconds, Minutes, Hours, Days, Weeks, Months, And Years To Come, Just Know That JESUS Loves You, And JESUS Is Coming Back, If You Don't Get Right You'll Get Left Behind, You Better Get Ready, GOD Bless You!!!!!!!!!!
I’m so sorry for your loss🕊️
Blessings to you and all who knew her🕊️
I’m so sorry for your loss. I know that pain.
Revelation 21:4 (KJV) And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
😢😢😊😊💙💙💙
I’m 77 and live in a little jungle community in Hawaii completely off grid. I have animals chickens and feed the wild birds on my tiny home farm. I love your song as it reflects what I love and who I am. Just a simple girl. ThankYou ❤
That is awesome!!! You are blessed!! ❤
Aloha❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉
Glad you manage to get the internet in your simple, completely off grid jungle. 😉
Jonna sent me and I am glad she did young lady, we are getting up there, I'll be 79 in February, it's quite a journey. I too have been living the simple life for many years, alone with my dogs.
I listen to you often... I don't know what sort of thing it's but each time it makes me cry 🥲. Still listening from Spain 🙏♾️🐺🐴🦅. blessings 😘
Coming from Jonna Jinton channel, and say thanks to your words. Keeps a heart warm ❤
Very happy to start following you in here❤
Me too❤❤❤
Me too
Me too!❤
Thats why we love Jonna she gives us so much joy and found amazing Melinda ❤
Jonna brought me here. Loving the simple life of music and love. Thank you.
Listening as I comment. You sing from heart like most original artists. Much love and respect. Still here. ❤
❤🔥🏁💞 gorgeous!
And your words are love and strength and warmth and home. Thank you 🎉 🏁🎵🎶🎵🏁💥💥😍😆
Beautiful song and message. Thank you for sharing.
She said it all! I worked in a nursing home caring for them, it's true it's not about you or your paycheck it's about them! I've seen girls walk into a room and argue and complain with residents and never understand why they were there. I got more joy and compassion from listening to them, I'd ask them all kinds of questions, and see them keeping on keeping on and many no family to visit and like she said adjust to their environment and the people around them. I didn't realize though that some things that bothered me till I quit working there and they're the ones going through it. Most of which were other co-workers and the place I worked was considered a really good place.
This song beautifully played I love the sound of box guitar. Good song and I had to smile every time she did beautiful smile beautiful lady beautiful soul! ❤
Замечательное владение гитарой. А какие руки!? Не понимаю слов, но кажется, что она поёт о простой жизни, о своих сыновьях, о простом счастье жить.
Music is a beautiful gift doesn't matter age gender music is awesome it is a God giving gift thank you.
Fantastic! Nature, music and a beautiful person! Thank you
Hello Ms. Melinda, I'm Michael, sitting behind my drum kit adding some percussion to your pretty song. It reminds me of a band I played in back in the early 80's called "Woodborne"...a band of longtime friends that had a lot of spiritl to it, like your song. It's music like that that could possibly keep the tether from completely snapping and the generations let go of something so valuable as to change laws, end wars, fight political injustices and retain the power of the people like it is written in our constitution, etc..
Just wanted you to know I was way down here where the only hills are sand dunes, here in the Florida panhandle between Panama City and Pensacola. Been here since 1966 when I was 5yo, 58 years ago. I thank ya for sharing some of your heart and soul by way of your music. May God continually bless u and your husband and blanket you both with His protection if it is His will to do so through our awesome saviour, Jesus, I pray- amen.
Heading to my kit right now! Beautiful song 64 here
Wow, I love that tune ,beautiful song and sound. Your good! 😃🌹🙏,God bless!
