    Hi Morgan! I am from Turkey and I’m so glad you talked about the devastating eartquake we’ve been through. This makes me feel less alone. And don’t worry we are all feeling guilty. I ashamed from the water that i drink. I couldn’t sleep or rather i didn’t let myself sleep a couple days. But i did my best to help. And now It is very important for us to protect our mental health. Because I think we've all been through indirect trauma. This is really painful. I hope no one will experience such pain again. So like i said you are not alone and what you said is true and there is nothing wrong with moving on with life and feeling positive emotions, on the contrary it is good for us. Also the video was so beautiful as always. I love you and your videos so much, I’m glad you’re here and thank you🤍 also i hope my english is good 😅

    We luv you Mo! NEVER FORGET HOW WONDROUS YOU TRULY ARE! We are here for you. Where else are we goin' to go? Hahaha. But seriously. You help so many peeps by sharing your struggles, insecurities and anxiety, more probably, than sharing your: goals met, triumphs won and finish lines crossed. We all struggle at one time or another for different reasons in different ways. I have yet to read one auto/bio or memoir that different record a horrible loss, tragedy, health issue, devastating failure, insurmountable mountain (seemingly) or unattainable dream. Some people have one of each, or multiples of each. And even rarer to find someone who didn't have something they were ashamed of or felt insecure about. For example, many ballerinas at the world class level despise their feet because of the changes wrought by toe shoes. So you are not alone. Not when I'm here. ❤ Go for a walk w Mr R and watch his perfect mindfulness of sun, wind, good sniffs and red balls soaring (or tennis balls or what ever balls you throw him). Let him remind you that a break to breathe and enjoy will give you strength to renew yr spirit. Then do what you did! You tackled or tickled a task and DID IT! You have done so much! You can do even bigger things. And I get to watch, appreciate and CONGRATULATE 🎉YOU! ❤

    Thank you Morgan for another whilst being authentic, feel good video.
    Amongst all the desolation in the world and maybe what we are having to deal with our own lives, finding joy amongst the sadness and tears is ,in my opinion, vital for our health and mental/ emotional wellbeing.
    We need YOU.
    As someone who is HSP, an empath and takes everything on my shoulders and into my heart, I am " eventually learning " that self care is essential if we are in anyway to be of help to others.
    So thank you for sharing and helping me to remember it's OK to feel all the feels, to sit with our emotions, to do whatever we need to do to support others, but first of all we have to access our inner support system so that we can be available for ourselves and therefore more able to be there for those around us and for the world in whatever way we can.
    I really look forward to your videos, so please continue bringing your sadness, but your joy to the world, its needed. Light and love, Sue 🙏❤️✨️🐕💛💞

    I appreciate your comments on guilt. It is one of the most counter productive emotions. These past couple weeks have been horrible for so many: the earthquake, the toxic spill, and now this recent school shooting in my own state. A friend posted on FB the experiences of her two children who were both on the MSU campus at the time, and it was truly harrowing to read her account, even though neither came to harm. Thank you for the reminder that we all need to try to find joy.

    Thank you for talking about those poor souls in Turkey, after the earthquake. Your dog is sooo drop dead beautiful, and I know that he is loved to bits. I totaly understand what you are saying about your anxiety - I have not been out of my home into the human world since January 2020. I live in a rural place in Devon, England, I am 66 years young, and only go out of my house from my front door to walk my dog, she is the only thing that gets me out. I can go days without speaking to another human being, and I do not mind this most of the time, but the evenings are the worst, when I do feel very alone. This is why I watch youtube chanels like yours, which speak the truth about feelings that we can all relate to. You are the most beautiful young woman, both inside and out. I just wish I could give you a big loving hug - but I can do so virtualy I suppose? That is what I miss most of all, being able to hug someone, and feeling loved. I wish you healing, and like us all on here, send that your way 100 per cent. Love and Hugs to you from me, Jilly, and my beautiful black rescue greyhound Madge, from Devon, England. xxx

    Once again, your video resonates with me. Helplessness when confronted with the world's horrors, courage to not let despair at times overflow us, even when we feel under the tide. Remember that even if at times it seems to you like a silly endeavor, your videos take courage, work, planning, an eye for details, a knowledge of technical settings, good storytelling and choice of music, your art demands commitment, regularity. All these things are only possible if you take that very very scary first step, and soldier on. And then we feel good, or even better, watching your videos. Courage and joy are two perfect words, and they feed each other. That said, it is always easier to see the best in others and not in ourselves, because we magnify our missteps and struggles. And, is that Randi's curious little fox calendar I see on your wall? ;)

    The earthquake has deeply affected me too, as well as some personal scary challenges which there's nothing to be done but to keep working through one step at a time. I have, during some of the worst experiences in my life, found that choosing joy is what helped me move forward, help me heal, helped me be as whole as I can be and that then means I'm more capable of being there for other people. It's truly a win/win choice. Although I also have to remind myself sometimes not to compare my struggles at any given time with the bigger struggles I see people suffering all around me, and then negate my ability to truly feel my own feelings. You did a great job of expressing much of what I also feel. Hugs.

    Hi Morgan. What a lovely video! My word for 2022 was Courage as it was a year of immense change for me: graduating law school, taking the bar exam, moving, starting work after being in school for two decades straight, and all of the big feelings that come with that. I have so much anxiety about getting out of my comfort zone and having my routine shaken up and was confronted with that constantly last year. But, sitting on the word Courage throughout the year was very comforting. I hope it gives you the same comfort!

    What a cozy video! I live when you speak about your feelings because usually people only show the happy and positive side of life online. But you really show how and what you feel! So thank you for that Morgan❤️

    hi morgan ♡ . . i dont usually leave comments like this for fear of exposure but i wanted to let you know that you’re not alone in feeling like you took a back step in the progress you’ve been making. i won’t go into detail about what it is im struggling with but i’ve been feeling the same with what i’ve been overcoming lately , like i’ve regressed , and it does not feel good. but i haven’t allowed myself to quit and though it is not a fun process , it is slowly getting easier and i know i need to keep going. thank you so much for being so honest with us

    Black micron pen will work!! You have such a talent for art..keep it up ! Thankyou for your sweet, calming words. I too struggle in my 60's with self doubt, anxiety, some days are better than others....but that's ok. As long as we take time for "me". And the World can be overwhelming and sad. We can do our part even in a little way. As the song goes" What the World needs now is Love Sweet Love" ...... Make each day joyful in some small way and Practice Random Acts of Kindness where ever it may be !! Thankyou wondrous friend and you bring sunshine in. You matter. ❤

    Morgan - you must be one of the most lovely young women one could ever find on You Tube because you're so authentic and take such care when crafting your videos (and how refreshing for someone to show when they are struggling?) and also because I can't remember any other You Tuber who's ever mentioned any crisis in the world, so all credit to you, and for producing such a lovely postcard in aid of charity. I feel so sad that you struggle with anxiety but that will pass with age: it's such a crazy world these days no wonder you have trouble keeping a clear head about it all (you're not alone, believe me)! Thank you, as always, for such a gorgeous video which helped me achieve 30 mins of calm in my ever-hectic and stressful life (and yes, I did sit down not just with a cuppa but also a slice of home-made cake!!) - pure bliss. Til next time. x

    This was such a healing video, Morgan. You are such a sweet and genuine spirit. I once heard that as an anacronym FEAR stands for False Evidence Appearing Real. That is what it is like for me. Your video reminded me of that. Thank you, and God bless Turkey and Syria.

    Greetings from Vancouver, WA. It was a surprise to see you building that kit. I've had my eye on that one, or perhaps the Japanese version of it, for a few months. Looks very relaxing to build. Your reminder about the Turkish/Syrian earthquake are also very welcome and needed.
    Regarding the anxiety, it sounds like you have such a good understanding of it all, but its is difficult to work through. Over the last few years, I've developed an odd facial glitch which is often humiliating in public. It tends to keep me hiding at home, which I think must be a failure on my part. But, like you, I'm working through it, trying to still be a good and useful person.
    Morgan, your videos are so humble, and reflect simple, but deeply meaningful values. There is a lot of good in what you do. Wishing you the very best.

    Thank you for being so real about your own suffering and grief. This is how I have been feeling as well. I have felt powerless and privileged and such sorrow. And I heard a Buddhist nun on TikTok speak of this. She said that even tho we are powerless to directly affect the tragedies in Turkey and Syria, we can turn to the person next to us or the homeless person on the street, and offer love and support. Everywhere there is suffering and we can be the light for each other. Sharing our joy and peace is part of that. Your video soothes my grieving soul. My smile warms up my neighbor's morning. Making eye contact with the homeless man at the coffee shop acknowledges our humanity. Every action counts. In these times we must remember the butterfly effect and also the power of light. Hugs and love to you!

    Thank you, Morgan. I am a highly sensitve person. At almost 47 years old now, I have spent my entire life (ever since I was a little girl and started to learn about all the suffering in this world) feeling guilty for my own life and so burdened for the immenses suffering around the world. The last few years have been so heartbreaking for so many humans and animals. I really needed to hear what you had to say! And I enjoyed watching your video while I sipped my lavender/chamomile tea and just took it all in.

      Ah I relate to this so much. I'm 43 and can't remember ever really not feeling the way you described. I understand the irony in what I'm about to say, as I rarely ever speak to myself this way, but: Please know you are a kind soul and deserve all the goodness and happiness in the world. I believe this wholeheartedly.✨💕

    I spend a lot of my time (especially with trying to grow and reach for my true dreams) feeling alone. Lately, I’ve honestly been wondering if I’m truly an outsider and everyone finds me too strange to tolerate…or if it’s possibly self-inflicted. Your videos (along with other factors but your videos are a very large contributor) are helping me to…honestly realize it may be just me making me feel this way. I believe now I don’t have to be extraordinary or well liked to lead an extraordinary life and your videos have been helping to encourage me to appreciate the life I have created and the future I am creating for myself. 2023 is a year of self care and healing.
    So much is constantly happening. It’s how it’s always been and always will be. It’s good to allow ourselves to isolate, to allow ourselves to feel and process. It’s when we refuse to come out of isolation that it becomes damaging. My heart and soul go out to everyone who is facing devastation, whether it be an earthquake or trying to overcome self-inflicted suffering. You are not alone 💛 Do not think noone wants to help you or noone wants you around.

It takes courage to share All the feelings and not only the good ones. You are so correct, it is normal, healthy and perfectly okay to feel many different emotions (sometimes simultaneously!). I hope that by sharing here, you felt the comfort of your community. You certainly give us all so much comfort ❤️ just by being you! You are, without a doubt, one of the Kindest and most Compassionate people I have ever met. It is your gift! You hold space for others and make us feel seen and understood. May you feel the same love reflected back at you friend. 💖
