"You're nothin special." This is brilliant because we always play the victim. So now we can realize what's the point being scared and unhappy when we're nothin special. Brilliant work and yes things are stupid Rodney. Thanks 🙏🏼 ❤️
Eat some cookies love it! I don’t know how you just popped up on my feed, am I seeing myself in the future? Love the nature settings, that is a medicine we need to protect.
Dawg-gone right , buddy , and if you'n get some exotic mushrooms down you'll smile like some kinda enchanted camel with eyes bright as spaceships zooming round yer brain until the dawg-gone cows come home to roost , y'all. Yeeeehaaaaaaagghhhh!!! y'all take care nOw y'hear.
There is something beautiful in that, when an intelligent person chooses such a character to send his message. Matthew Silver made me feel the same back then. For some odd reason Im geniunly thankful, amazed and peaceful every time I see this phenomena. I wanna hug him, from the bottom of my heart. Why?! :D Fuck knows, but I certainly enjoy that.
I'm still disappointed and frustrated! It's sickening when other people that can clearly work hard , get an easy ride from the hard work sweat and pain of others.
Honestly sometimes some of us prefer hearing the true-true, just slapped in the face with cold reality. Psychotherapy (talk therapy) works but it works better hearing it blunt and to the point.
My Grandma's constant expression was, "Happy Everything", she wrote it in cards for people on special occasions, quilted into stuff for people. She lived well 94 years.
Love your approach to life. We all tend to think we’re the centre of the universe while in fact we’re just nothing special in a good kind of way. Greetz from the Netherlands.
This saved me today; I will now leave bed for the first time in ages - love you Rodney, you wildly wisdomous wizard. you know just the right way to say things, weirdly, n it’s my vibe a squillion.
Was looking for something to make me happy and I guess tonight that was you! Thanks Rodney. Actually, realizing I am nothing special is very comforting. It's a special feeling. I feel special.
I always liked accordion because it moved around a lot on itself but always seemed to be in the right place anyway. Before Rodney I didn't want to tell anyone that. Today I went to the bakery and the lady said, "How can I help you?" I replied: " I can finally tell you I like the accordion. " Thank you Rodney.
It looks so peaceful and natural where you live, and it projects through your personal philosophies. There’s nothing more therapeutic than the beauty of Nature.
I was always told to "mind my own business and find something to do..." - it works, but I like "you're nothin' special", too. Good way to get the old ego out of the way and get to what's real!
He says we're nothing special and he's absolutely right. So many people feel they're special and entitled. That's what gets them in trouble. The world doesn't spin around them. they spin around the world. Feeling special combined with entitlement is a form of competition. the problem is most people don't know where competitions right place is. That's where they think everything in life is a game. Wrong answer.
Dearest Rodney, Thank you for sharing your life struggles and positive outlook. Life is tough and your messages give me perspective and hope! Stay well, my friend!
Soon as brother Rodney started to speak a huge grin grew on my face and I got real happy until he stopped talkin! ♥️ya Rodney! Hope all is well with you!
I nominate you, Rodney, to be the Grand Marshal of the largest Peace March to ever descend on Washington D.C. A million people, white, black, brown, Asian, Hispanic, Christians, Jews, Hindus, Buddahs, Left, Right --- all marching arm in arm in solidarity. I can think of no better message to send to those in power who are striving to divide us! Unless you're busy that day, of course. All the best! ---Jimbob
When I hear the phrase: “Just wanna let you know... you know.. you’re nothing special.” It just hits differently coming from a stranger. Aloha~~ from Hawaii~~ 🍍🤙🤙
I use to wake up every day shooting for happiness. Impossible goal! Now I am an avid accordion watcher and have never been more content at an even keel in all aspects of my life! All to you, Rodney! Thx! 🍻
I've suspected I was nothing special despite what my Mom told me. Thanks for confirming!...it takes a lot of pressure off...I have to be careful, because my Happy Face scares children.
“Just wanna let you know... you know.. you’re nothing special.”
Thanks that just what I needed.
Same here from the UK! The most articulate inarticulate guy. What a guy
@@leewprice Nice big slice of humble pie .. hit the spot Rodney
I died when he said that 🤣
True nihilism, not what most people mistake it for. Lovely. Inspires me to go re-read some Vonnegut.
Your brain doesn't tell you that every day of the week?
"You're nothin special." This is brilliant because we always play the victim. So now we can realize what's the point being scared and unhappy when we're nothin special. Brilliant work and yes things are stupid Rodney. Thanks 🙏🏼 ❤️
Rodney is spot on
Eat some cookies love it! I don’t know how you just popped up on my feed, am I seeing myself in the future? Love the nature settings, that is a medicine we need to protect.
Especially you are nothing special!
Rodney you are very special 😘.
We could also group up and do something about it.
I can not begin to express how much I love this guy. I haven't smiled this genuine for a really long time!
Dawg-gone right , buddy , and if you'n get some exotic mushrooms down you'll smile like some kinda enchanted camel with eyes bright as spaceships zooming round yer brain until the dawg-gone cows come home to roost , y'all.
Yeeeehaaaaaaagghhhh!!!
y'all take care nOw y'hear.
I tend to get insights on my own feelings about some of my fixed situations, and he answered all of them, even inadvertently

Rodney Norman - not the hero we need, but definitely the hero we deserve! Keep on keepin' on Rodney!
This is exactly the hero we need, young man
Yea you got the phrase backwards, but I get what you’re going for 👌🏼
Totally get what u say u speak so much sense and funny with it brilliant
You got it backwards.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
He's that uncle we all need in our lives.
Diogenes nods in approval
"You're nothing special, just get over it, and eat some cookies." LOL
Hahahaha

This guy has the truth of humanity nailed.
Youre a genius and you win the internet for life man.. who needs a self help book? We have Rodney
huh?
Are you kidding me hahahaha he needs a haircut to lol 😂
🤣 so true.
If he wrote a book though I’d probably read it
I'm still disappointed and frustrated! It's sickening when other people that can clearly work hard , get an easy ride from the hard work sweat and pain of others.
This is hands down the wisest man on the internet, possibly the world.
This is what I wished I was told in psychotherapy. More people need to hear this. Blunt, honest, and funny.
your therapist isn't allowed to tell you that because if you went home and killed yourself they would be in trouble.
Honestly sometimes some of us prefer hearing the true-true, just slapped in the face with cold reality. Psychotherapy (talk therapy) works but it works better hearing it blunt and to the point.
Sometimes it’s just too hard for people to deal with that fact. It’s pretty sad
Anyone who goes to a head shrink has too much money, and is probably half nuttz too... ☆
Top five Rodney Norman shorts! This introduced me to the living stoic legend! 🙌🏻💯💡👑
My Grandma's constant expression was, "Happy Everything", she wrote it in cards for people on special occasions, quilted into stuff for people. She lived well 94 years.
That did in fact make me feel better. Thank you my man.
Thanks so much Rodney. I wish you happiness and cookies and great accordion concerts and other cool stuff
Thank you Oscar
Rodney, you are what this world needs right now. Have a great day!!
How have I lived my whole RUclips life without meeting this brilliant man😊
This guy is so deep, he wraps back around to the beginning of true reality... TWICE!! Brilliant...sheer Brilliance!!!
Thank you for your wisdom. Virtual hug for you 🤗
Love the scenery you find for these man... Beautiful stuff.
This is the best message in history, you’re nothing special. Just be happy 😃 . That’s a dose of truth we all need. Time to reset our brains.
I totally agree with you !!!
Completely ... and i love you !!!
❤️🩹
Love your approach to life. We all tend to think we’re the centre of the universe while in fact we’re just nothing special in a good kind of way. Greetz from the Netherlands.
Protect this man at all costs
You radiate awesomeness Rodney! God bless you&your big heart, and thank you for being you 💯🙏😁
You're right. Why do I choose to make myself miserable? I need to decide that I want to be Happy! 🥰
You are bringing immense joy to all of us! Keep it up! I hear you!
“Eat some cookies and just be happy.”
Amen.
People get agitated when I try to tell them happiness is a choice... 🌺 🌸 🌼 🌻 🌞 🌝 🌛
Brilliant. You deliver the message and make people feel good at the same time. Much love Rodney
This saved me today; I will now leave bed for the first time in ages - love you Rodney, you wildly wisdomous wizard. you know just the right way to say things, weirdly, n it’s my vibe a squillion.
Did you have a cookie?
Was looking for something to make me happy and I guess tonight that was you! Thanks Rodney. Actually, realizing I am nothing special is very comforting. It's a special feeling. I feel special.

Hey Rodney...
Bring it down to basics. Your happy face made me smile 😂
I always liked accordion because it moved around a lot on itself but always seemed to be in the right place anyway. Before Rodney I didn't want to tell anyone that. Today I went to the bakery and the lady said, "How can I help you?"
I replied: " I can finally tell you I like the accordion. "

You are a modern day philosopher Sir!
Liked and subscribed!
Thanks, Rodney! You make me smile every time. What a gift! Peace, brother.
You are absolutely rite. Lol. He does
" You know, you're not special"
" Eat some cookies"
Such wise advice.. You are a MASTER! GOD BLESS YOU FOREVER!
Whenever I drive through the hills and the mountains, I will always think of this guy.
This sort of simplicity is what I needed, thank you
It looks so peaceful and natural where you live, and it projects through your personal philosophies. There’s nothing more therapeutic than the beauty of Nature.
"You're nothin special"
Maybe the one time this was said without coming across as a total ass thing to say. This guy is awesome.
Don't try to stand out, just be yourself....got it buddy thanks for the message.
Thanks for the smile, bud. They are hard to come by these days.

I am glad to know that I am not special but at the same time people around me are not either.
Grabs my accordion...hes right!!
I've got nothing...I'm nobody, I'm not special and I'm the happiest(and least stressed) person I know. By far.
This is the happiest I’ve been in a while, thanks Rodney! You’re the best!
Dearest Rodney, Thank you for sharing your life struggles and positive outlook. Life is tough and your messages give me perspective and hope! Stay well, my friend!
I just watched this with my 6yo. We loved it so much. She says “it’s great you’re doing something good for the world!” 🤘
You gave me the biggest laugh I've had in a while. Definitely put a smile on my face (without a mirror)
This was a beautiful talk it turned my day around!!!
This guy is amazing! Love how he packages his concepts.
The message is clear and the voice is great.
Thanks 👍🇨🇦
Soon as brother Rodney started to speak a huge grin grew on my face and I got real happy until he stopped talkin! ♥️ya Rodney! Hope all is well with you!
He is like a reincarnated Walt Whitman. Very humble and wise man.
Dude, you are the best! These videos are so awesome, haha!!! Brings me joy man!!!!
I saw an accordion player and a tuba player jammin out in savanna, Georgia. Best thing ever.
Words of wisdom Rodney. I know it's 3yrs later but I hope your still out there spreading joy
Beautiful, you don't need to be special to he happy.
I nominate you, Rodney, to be the Grand Marshal of the largest Peace March to ever descend on Washington D.C.

the fact that this isn't what i needed nor expected DID make me feel better
THIS GUY IS A WISE MAN, WE NEED THIS MANS VOICE TO BE HEARD!!!!
Love ya man! Thanks for what you do! You remind me a lot of myself and how I handle this crazy world and stupid people.
Great job! God bless you young man👍🙏
Had a crappy day, needed that simpleness! Thank you for sharing it!

I've suspected I was nothing special despite what my Mom told me. Thanks for confirming!...it takes a lot of pressure off...I have to be careful, because my Happy Face scares children.
I just love your manner of fact speaking.
