- What is more important - a beautiful face or a beautiful heart?
While outer beauty may turn heads at first, it is easily forgotten when the true nature is revealed. Inner beauty will be remembered. Our relationships with others will be what is cherished.
"The important thing is not how one looks, but how you are able to connect to the people and the world around you." - Jenny Jackson

When a 85 yr old says: "The past 20 years were the best of my life" doesn't that give hope? 💗
💚
It does indeed
Yes indeed... there is hope . I’m 60 and can relate to much in this video. Especially the lack of kind sweet words of love from my mother ( and father tbh )
Yes, indeed. And I am 66 today.
@@ambarnathmajumdar8725 Hey! Congratulations! Is it your birthday? If so, have a lovely birthday 🙂
Her mother was wrong--this woman IS beautiful ❤
I agree! The twinkle in her eyes, and her beautiful smile. Love her!!!
She is absolutely radiant!
She is beautiful indeed ♥
I was thinking the same thing! Her elegance reminds me of the opening of a poem by Theodore Roethke:
"I knew a woman, lovely in her bones,
When small birds sighed, she would sigh back at them;
Ah, when she moved, she moved more ways than one:
The shapes a bright container can contain!"
PRETTY " IS " AS PRETTY " DOES,"
AS MY GRANDMA ONCE TOLD ME.
My first thought was, what a beautiful woman! I literally gasped when she said she wished she had been born beautiful, you were and you are dear lady.
Thank you Juliana, for seeing the value and the beauty in the sharing of Jenny's story.
And if you missed it, we've filmed two other stories with Jenny as well -
"Love, Mummy" - ruclips.net/video/miLs1AfMrIY/видео.html
Now You Are Free - ruclips.net/video/Np-uU-tH6oU/видео.html
Warm hugs from sunny South Africa, to you. Justine and Michael x
I had a similar thought, what a pretty woman. Then came her words and thoughts on her life, and she is even more beautiful by what is inside her, a beautiful soul to match.
I thought the same thing! I believe the most beautiful thing about a person is their soul. And her soul is radiant!!
OH my GOODNESS, the BEAUTY of this woman’s spirit is incredible!! NO WONDER everyone wanted another video!!
What a beautiful woman. How sad her mother couldn't see that. No child should have to endure this. It breaks my heart. I am so glad she is able to enjoy life now. Its never too late.
her video can heal so many people!
I needed this hope today.
Be interesting to know who her mother was... and her mother before her.
Sometimes this is an endless cycle of pain.
I can relate. Been treated the same
@@mgmalia me too
Oh my. What can I say. When you crush a rose hard and long enough, the pure fragrant oil has to be released - somehow. You lifted the lid and now, you are pouring the oil. How very precious.
YES Grace - such a beautiful image that you have painted in our heads. xx
Thank you Grace for your lovely comment. It was a delight to read it💕
Beautiful imagery in your reply. Well said!
Your thoughts are so beautifully conveyed. Thank you Grace!
@@sarahp1383 Absoltutely my pleasure
I watch her clips over and over..because she is the MOST beautiful..the spirit..the wisdom..I am 71 and she motivates ME!!!!!!
So lovely that the three videos with Jenny resonate so much with you Carol. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
“When we take a wrong turning, we have to find the right road.” I love you, Jenny. It took me until I was 70 to merge with myself, and I never looked back. Beauty and creativity made this possible. You are loved, you beautiful woman. You made a difference in my life, and I have sent your video to many folks I love. Keep on creating and loving yourself.
How sad. My Mom never ever said that I was pretty. There were no hugs or kisses, ever. She never taught me how to bake, cook or sew. She was great at them all. Saying I love you was not in her vocabulary.
I stayed out of the house and was a tomboy. I was an only child.
Married 3 times to no avail. I did have a daughter and I hugged, kiss her and told her everything that I didn't hear. I love you.
Judy, your mom sounds just like mine. I never realized how bad my upbringing was until I had children of my own and couldn't help kissing and hugging them and loving them...and then I realized, I never got any hugs or kisses or bedtime stories growing up. I'm in my 40s now and just finding my inner confidence.
@@Laura_B__ Found out my mom was a paranoid schizophrenic later in my adult life. My Dad was never allowed near me and he loved kids. I missed that, too. We are strong and can do anything. Pray.
@Laura, It's not true, what you felt I felt too. That's in 1960s. I don't remember my parents hugging or kissing me, sitting down to talk to me. But I know now that they loved and cared for me. But when we are kids this makes us feel unloved and not cared for. It's just in those days parents had been themselves brought up that way, only as infants we were cuddled and kissed. Once a child, in those days, if you all can recollect, it was a strict upbringing. Your mom must have loved the Tom boy in you, so she didn't think of teaching you the cooking baking etc?? We do not know their thoughts while we surmise on our own that they didn't love their kids. I hugged and kissed my children, spent loads of time with them, just like you all. But so did all my friends. It's just that the times keep changing. My children pet my grandkids more than I did, gifts are a plenty as is love expressed in excess🙂. Times change, our parents loved us, if not we wouldn't be what we are today. Let's be grateful to them, times were tougher then. Than now.❤️
Similar. But she could not cook and was a flirt. But I had 2 big brothers to look out for me. Her moods... as a kid I said she was was predictably unpredictable. You knew it would come and it was terrifying but you never knew when or which one of us.
I am so sorry you had to live this too. I don't think it's generational, I am a millenial and my childhood memories do not include love from my mom. My mother was a narcissist plain and simple, tried to manipulate things her way until the very end. The last thing she did before she died was steal money from me and lie about it, destroying my relationship with 2 younger siblings in the process. She committed suicide after that by not telling anyone that her breast cancer had come back. Now I am left without resolution--how can I forgive her for something that she couldn't even forgive herself for? I wept throughout this video. What a lovely, strong, beautiful woman to awaken so late in life and allow love to soften and light her life. For me, for now...I am loving more than I ever imagined I could be. Love is life's greatest gift.
Isn't it a shame the effect of these narcissist parents have on their children. Black cat s are all beautiful and have the light within
oo, really good!
It pains me to hear her speak about herself as "not born beautiful." I see such a beautiful human with profound insight, who has struggled much of her life to make herself feel worthy and whole. Simply, because her mother was obviously an unhappy person. A truth distilled here: how we talk to our children becomes their inner voice. As parents, we must choose our words carefully and intentionally.
Thank you GR for yet another deeply moving, aesthetically gorgeous and thoughtful video. You continue to amaze and inspire!!! Miigwetch!
So glad that each story stirs your soul dear Susan.
Much love to you. Justine and Michael 💚
When you say “I tried” , u lived , u experienced , u died thousand times and still survived... kudos to this amazing survivor of hateful surroundings.. love from India 🇮🇳
Thank you - be sure to watch Jenny's follow up film tomorrow.
Love from South Africa
Thanks. I need to say that to myself.
Literally I cried out and tears slided down on my cheeks when she dropped her head after listening from her mother that "All Cats are Black at Night" and SHE seemed me as an ANGEL glowing with all its inner beauty.
@Green Renaissance, believe ME!!! You are doing a marvelous job and please keep on producing such life changing videos /movies because you guys (writers, producers, directors, everyone of you) are actually LIGHTHOUSE of HOPE.
@ahmadwarburton - You make us blush. Thank you for seeing the value in these stories. We've working on so much more that we'll keep sharing regularly, so stay tuned in here x
She instantly became beautiful in that moment. My God.
Same from me. YT is awash with mindless, pointless entertainment (distractions)..and then there's profound gems like this channel, that shines eleventee hundreds of miles above all that drivle.
Thankyou for being you and creating these wonderful beautiful examples of the beauty of being human and being alive.
I feel for Jenny, for her painful childhood, and how long it took for her to sort herself out, and how wonderful she's healed her soul and now has a wonderful life.
(My journey took me a few decades, I too was severly wounded early on in childhood and it would be 47 when I concluded I've healed the bulk if not all my soul wounds, and now am enjoying the second half of my life.)
When her mother said "well all cat's are black at night" it reminded me of when my mother said "we were all mistakes". Having 4 daughters and no sons wasn't in Gods plan for my ungrateful parents. I'm blessed that Jenny's stories just crossed my path a day before Christmas 🕊️
This happens to a lot of children. They absorb these lies like a sponge and it takes a long time to squeeze it all out. It was a lie you were always beautiful.
💚
Wow! Beautifully said.
Exactly! Her Mother broke her little spirit when she was just a little girl. I want to hug this woman and tell her a complete stranger finds her beautiful and interesting and she's a fantastic artist! But I think she finally knows this.
Agreed. She’s 85 and the pain and shame from her mom’s words still stung. Dr Gabor Mate specializes in childhood trauma and it’s relation to epidemiology helped me see how many of us we’re victims of victims (her mom was prob treated the same and that’s all she knew) and how childhood scars can last a lifetime. I’m sure I hurt others from buried pain and anger before I owned both. Hopefully most of us became survivors even thrivers and helped others.
I empathise , and I am very Blessed that my mum and I reconciled and helped me to become who I am today.
Jenny, you've done the work. You've transformed your suffering and your suffering has transformed you. More power to you. Much love.
💚
Makes one appreciate a good mother! We often forget what horrors psychological damage can do! 🙏
So true. Beauty queen here as a teen. Mom disliked that very much. Resented me for decades. Dad encouraged it. I was young. Daughters can't win. Plain or fancy, doesn't matter. I often daydream if I was plain then, I wouldn't have been so exploited by people and resented by my mom. She was cruel. Super cruel. Well, they can all go walk off a short pier:) I love me, I love others. I love kindness and give it, and thankfully am not focused on looks. I feel good being me at 50
The first thought I had when watching this is that she is beautiful!!!!!
The very first thought I had the first time I saw this lady was: how beautiful, how charming, how fascinating she is! I want to be like her, painting those inspiring paintings and wearing such fancy skirts and sweaters. But then I simply fell in love with her when she told her life struggle and the loneliness she felt. And I will put on my gravestone too “I tried, I have tried and I am still trying “! 🧚♀️
💚
Thank you, you are so right, love the🌈👍🌍🐬🕊️🐾 lady and love your coment!
Yes she is very charming and now I am planning to have shoes like hers. I will go buy some buttons and sew them on my shoes.
I thought the same things when I first saw her/listened to her!!
Mental and verbal abuse with children leaves invisible scars. It's amazing this was published on my birthday and such a wonderful message it is!
I thought she was utterly marvelous the moment I discovered her. The second she spoke. She’s dynamic and I thought how unconventionally beautiful she is - her sassoon pixie cut her chambray smock- but her depth and wisdom and her contentment thru much pain was / amazing. My only regret I’ll never spend a day at her house talking art. Music beauty cats flowers philosophy - and laughing - she’s more beautiful than she’ll ever know. Every woman wants to be beautiful. My mother once told me I’d have to always work at my looks. Uggh. I’ve never felt beautiful I too have a sharp tongue Being soft was harder. So vulnerable. Thank you for sharing you’re a shooting star -- your videos are captivating. I’m an artist alone and sometimes look at myself at 67 and think what’s the point. You have given me so much to think about thsnk you
This is a deeply moving message dear Raechel - thank you for sharing your thoughts and own experiences here with us. May you continue to create art. May you continue to see the beauty in life. May you wake each day with gratitude in your heart.
Warm hugs to you. Justine and Michael 💚
these honest, transparent and courageous people give me the courage to admit to myself how fake and dishonest I am to myself, and to change that.
Green Renaissance I, we can never thank you enough
@kinza lanabi - Kinza, thanks for this beautiful note, but I should tell you not to be too hard on yourself. Our film coming out this Wednesday is called 'Authentically You', and speaks to the concept of learning to love ourselves, and accepting the shadow side of our being. Keep an eye out, and I hope you enjoy it x
@@ReflectionsofLife hello where can I find this called authentically you ,I am ready thank you so much for these absolutely beautifull real accounts this is why I stopped watching TV and reading newspapers 14 years ago in appreciation ann
Ha ha
Beautiful Lady with a beautiful heart!
That happened to me. My mum telling a sales assistant (I was 10): "no matter which coat I buy for her, she is so ugly and without grace!!!" She has always chosen for me the worst dresses that didn't made me look feminine. Such an unhappy child, teen, grown up girl.
No boyfriend was "for me"...and she pushed them away from me..
she tried by all means to cancel my auto esteem.
These are painful things you carry along your whole life.
With 68 I'm alone, successful and happy; I am proud of myself because I'm a sweet caring person. Nothing can make you a bad soul if you don't want it.
Thank you for sharing your deeply personal story.
It is so beautiful that you are happy with who you are, thank you for being the caring person that you are.
Thanks for watching this little story.
Have the most beautiful week.
Best wishes,
Michael and Justine
She is far from ugly. She has such a lovely smile. There is a fact that smiling makes anyone adorable and grumpiness does indeed make anyone look unattractive. So keep smiling.
Don't listen to your mother you are a beautiful woman. Unfortunately I grew up with a similar mother, hurtful and nasty. Please believe me when I say you really are beautiful I wish I could meet you one day and have a cuppa and give you a big hug love and hugs xxx
Kirsten - sorry that hear about your challenging childhood. We loved every minute of our film spent filming with Jenny. And she has become someone that we are lucky to call a good friend. When I next see her for a cup of tea, I'll pass along an extra hug especially from you. Justine. xx
@@ReflectionsofLife Thank you she really touched me she is so real and down to earth more people should be like her
Kirsten Carlton Me to😕 Good advice!!
Wounded mother wounds the child. I am so happy to learn Jenny broke this vicious circle and transmuted her own pain in love for herself and everyone & everything around her. What on earth could be greater life achivement? May she enjoy and celebrate every single moment of her life, I am sending her warm hug and message, that she is beyond beautiful! ❤🌸🌞
I can relate to this too💔 But now I say everyday "I am loveable"💕
Dear Lady, I'm sure you didn't take wrong turns. You took just the turns you needed to take to become who you are and to be where you are now. You are beautiful and inspiring. Thank you for showing yourself to us.
@Jane Tennyson - Thank you for this truly touching message for Jenny x
It is ok to admit that we’ve made mistakes or done things that were wrong. The important thing is to stop, turn, and go in a better direction. I admire her for doing that.
Just watched all 4 of your videos, Jenny and cried through each one. At one time in my life I saw myself and felt myself as being a heavy person both physically, mentally, & emotionally. The physical me was a burden. I carried a load through life. When I first saw you, I saw a lively, vibrant woman with colorful, flowing clothing on her body and on her head. You are just air, light and breezy, bright smile and laughter. You are what a person looks like who has unloaded their burden. Wow! Thank you Jenny.
Thank you for sharing these thoughts and experiences, for being so open to all of Jenny's messages. So glad you were able to change things in your life. May Jenny's words carry and inspire you on your future journey through life. Much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
“I tried. I have tried. And I am still trying.” Instant tears. Same queen.
Never stop trying - sending you strength.
Have a wonderful weekend.
Love Michael & Justine
What a beautiful story that I could relate to. I was treated very bad by my mother. I didn’t understand it as a child, I was only hurt by it. As an adult, I realized that my mother (who was also treated badly by her adopted mother), didn’t like herself. And, I looked like her and was the most like her, therefore, she didn’t like me. I forgave my mom and felt very sorry for her. She could not give what she did not have. My scars will always be there, but I am strong, compassionate, and empathetic because of my mom.
@Nanci McComb - That you are able to grow from this childhood experience, and turn the hard times into a gentle sense of compassion - that is truly beautiful. Big hugs to you x
You are not alone. Love is all around you, always, like a soft and warm blanket for no matter how cold the winter may come. Big hugs!
So true! a mother who didn't get the love and affection needed from her mom, can't give her child the love that he needs!
It's terribly hurtful and you always expect from her to show you the love that you needed, but you gotta move on at some point and learn by yourself how to give the love that you didn't get.
I believe as long as you are aware of that you can change the toxic cycle and be a better mom!
I understand your words!
I too can relate...the good news is that I had my dad's personality, and so was able to be a better version of myself. There were struggles, but I managed. PS I paint as well...very therapeutic🎨😊. Take care to any who is struggling...you will find yourself❣
My mother is similar to yours... and something changed in me by watching these videos... I'm 28 now, so I can understand things I couldn't before and take actions towards the right direction... thank you for helping me realize that ❤
My mother similarly dashed my hopes as a child when, after a wonderful day of singing hymns at church and just loving life and music and seeing my future lie in music, my mother told me that I sing just like my father, loud and terribly and could I at least do it quietly in the future. My heart was broken into pieces. I have rarely sang in front of people since then. My future became unsure, lost, hopeless. This is something I've spent my life healing from. Aah, the power of words. Be careful what you say.
@Waste Not Want Not - We don't often realise the impact of our words on those around us. We send you healing love x
Yes you are completely right.. it is also in a wise ittle book called "the four agreements" words are very powerful, and they can Heal or Devestate..🌈🙏
Well … this one got me.
I woke up just before I turned 50. Through a month long period of fear, terror, pain, anguish, trepidation and fight or flight 24/7 I screamed, “I don’t want to live this life anymore. I don’t want to be this person anymore.” If I were not the sole caregiver for my elderly disabled mother I would’ve opted out of it all. So, I started searching for a way to lessen the stress. I knew if I kept going the same way that this body would die. The first relief I found was a breathing technique to balance the heart and mind. It sort of snow balled from there. Introspection and realization led me to the truth of life. I’m no longer able to recognize the person I had been for 49 years, truly. I’m not disowning or denying her. I’m learning more and more everyday about the very nature of reality. About who I am, what I am, why I am, and how to be in this world. I wanted to end my life and through sheer terror I did. I ended the tortured perception that was denying me a life worth living. A life of appreciation and ability to find joy in all the little details if I just take the time to look.
I can’t thank you guys enough for sharing this film with the world. This one reminded me that I’m lucky I woke up. Sincerely, Thankyou
A deep and touching message, thank you for sharing a bit about your life and struggles. We are so glad there was a turning point and things have changed for the positive, and you are still here with us. And we are thankful that Jenny's message could be a help as well. Wishing you all the best for the journey ahead, may you enjoy life, the big and small things.
We have more videos with her on our channel, here are all the other links: ‘Love Mummy' (ruclips.net/video/miLs1AfMrIY/видео.html), ‘Now You Are Free’ (ruclips.net/video/Np-uU-tH6oU/видео.html) and ‘We Didn’t Know’ (ruclips.net/video/cdpIec1iG6E/видео.html). Sending much love and kindness to you. Justine and Michael. 💚
I would love to have you for a neighbor, a friend. You are a rare and unique gem. This film gives me hope, at 61, that I, too, can find myself and love myself once and for all. What a cool woman ! Your kind of beauty is so special, like a band of sunlight resting on a tree trunk with birds singing and a gentle breeze making the leaves whisper and dance. You are beautiful and you are loved.
💚
I see an invisible, gentle, divine hand behind Jenny helping to transform her terrible pain into a deeper love in every direction. Learning to love is to learn to get healing. She became an Ambassador. Beautiful person, well done presentation. Thank you!
Gustav - and thank YOU for always taking the time to share your thoughts that each story evokes within you.
I hope for that invisible, gentle, divine hand behind me to guide me. as I have made so many errors that are affecting not just me but others, and may affect them and me worse in the future, as things have not come to light, I hope there is still time for me to turn myself round and that my situation is within the bounds of remediation.
well I see a very elegant black cat even in daylight
💚
I just turned 63. I knew that I am an artist but was too afraid to work on my passion. So I dismissed it. My children turned out to be the real artists. This video gave me the reason to work on my art again. Thank you for the inspiration.
So glad that this story inspired you to start creating again!
We have three more videos with Jenny on our channel, here are the links:
'Love Mummy' (ruclips.net/video/miLs1AfMrIY/видео.html),
'Now You Are Free' (ruclips.net/video/Np-uU-tH6oU/видео.html) and
‘We Didn’t Know’ (ruclips.net/video/cdpIec1iG6E/видео.html).
Warmest hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
A lot of our parents had their own childhood traumas they never healed from. Maybe your mother never saw her own beauty... Much less be able to recognize yours. We arrive here to be all that we are. But first we must break out of the shell of all that we are not. Our parents are our teachers... Whether good or bad... They teach us wonderful lessons.
Beautiful observation
I agree
We're all broken in some way or another
The Japanese have an art by which they treasure cracked pots
I love this SO much, and love HER so much! Beautiful in every way. Oh, and ...she's 85?!!!
I think she's alot younger.
That’s exactly what I thought!!!💕
65. She says it clearly. Twice. ( edited, i stand corrected. ) 🙂rossouwmodern.com/art/jenny-jackson/
I would like the woman in the video to know that she doesn’t look at all older than that but I think the emotional ground she has covered so very quickly is quite unfathomable to people so the mind would contort for another explanation.
@@StephenS-2024 no, she says it took her til age 65 to have her epiphany, then later she mentions it has been 20 years since then. 7:24.
It's not like she had her epiphany and they made this documentary the next week 🙄
I think this is the definition of beauty inside and out. I loved learning from this lady. Another fantastic video!
Yes yes and yes....another fantastic and priceless example for human beings which are working on their conciuousnes high level!! 👏🤲😍🎯
If every person tried as hard as you have, love would bloom immensely.
Here is Jenny's follow up films - we made it because so many of you asked to visit her again - ruclips.net/video/miLs1AfMrIY/видео.html and ruclips.net/video/Np-uU-tH6oU/видео.html
☕🍰🧉🧃🍦🍇🍉🍒🍓🌽🥑🥖🥐🥯🕊🧸🧸🧸🧸🧸
Blessed be. Have a delightful day
Love what you all.are doing.
Thank you. It seems a lot like my life, I'm 64 and she gives me hope that I can do it. Thank you Jenny!
Thank you - I plan to watch-
It is about time you pay her another visit. Please!
Acknowledging facial beauty is simply saying - congratulations on your face. This lady EXUDES beauty from deep within. The most fascinating and beguiling face - as is her artist’s soul .
When your young beauty is all on the outside as you get older it is on the inside................................
💚
Everyone is beautiful in their own way, the only problem is that , some people just can’t really see true beauty.
" She did The Best that she Could " Beautiful words
💚
I love her story! Both sad and inspiring at the same time.
Just think about how mothers
"Words" to their daughters impact their lives forever.
Tan cierto
I think this lady is beautiful! She is unique and quirky.. not at all like those boring cookie-cutter definition of beautiful
Thank you! My thoughts exactly!!! 💕
I first saw the movie ”Love, Mommy” before this one. At the end of ”Love, Mommy” I remarked how beautiful she is and that I wanted to draw her, make prints of her! When this movie started, and she delivered the ’all cats are black in the dark’ line, I burst into tears, mortified. I was so surprised and taken aback. I didn't have a second to think. The reaction was visceral.
💚
Who can relate so much to this story. That was my mother too. And because her mother didn't love her, she didn't have any love. And I think this is a pandemic. That is why there is so much negativity, mental illness and demons in the world.
To see what true beauty is one must experience ugliness. There is no place in heaven for a blackened heart.
To carry the weight of her mother's belittling response to her wistful remark, for so long.. All cats are black at night... Until she painfully over came it and triumphed, when she finally came to terms with WHO SHE WAS AND WHY SHE WAS THE WAY SHE WAS. Amazing lady. RN
Maybe we come on earth to find out ourselves who we are and what we like and dont like no matter what our parents or others may say. I am 64 now and am also on my way to discover myself and to belief in my own truth. So for sure, you are far not the only one. Thank you so much for sharing. You were always beautiful inside and outside but now, fortunately you know it ! It's never too late! Much love ❣
💚
Beauty is so much more than specific features or looking like a family member. Beauty is something that is God-breathed. May the Lord bless this beautiful woman, an inspiration to us all!
Thank you for your kind words, we are glad you appreciated Jenny's story.

What a beautiful soul this lady is with a fantastic smile that would light up any room!! I'm so pleased that she's made peace with herself... and she does have a beautiful face because I can see her beautiful heart & essence shining through...god bless her. xxx
I'm sewing buttons on my takkies straight away
@Marche Grundmann - I'm going to share this comment with Jenny directly - she'll LOVE to hear this :)
Mar he Grundmann, I said to myself when I seen her shoes “.oooh, I want those”
🤗
I watched Jenny's 3rd Story "Now you are Free" just 5 minutes ago and had to share it with the words " Everthing about her is beyond beautiful!" She touched my heart and got my eyes watery with her beautiful soul. Now...30 sec in this video she expressed her regrets about not being born beautiful. That hit me. I got mistreated by a lot of people in my life and felt misunderstood and rejected and now almost 45 I am almost in peace but still have to learn a a lot. I also wished this happened sooner as I am living alone with my dogs and have never been married. I know now that people who hurt you are also hurting. Unfortunately that leads into a lack of self-love and respect and therefore to others threating you just as disrespectful as you treat yourself. It is a vicious circle. As Jenny said, the more wrong turns you take the longer it takes to find back on the right path. We can do it as soon as we open up and replace fear for faith. I am sure many people have the same fear about being too old for that and Jenny's story is so motivating. I would love to listen to her forever!
Thank you dear Jennifer - for seeing such value in Jenny's story. And for sharing your own experiences with us too. There is so much beauty in this life. And each new day is a new opportunity to find peace in our hearts. Hugs to you! Justine and Michael x
I woke up today….thinking I was worthless..Jenny your message has come to me at just the right time. Thank you
So precious to hear that this film could shift your perspective. May you continue to hold firm to the knowledge that you are here, and that you are valuable! We send you love. Justine and Michael. 💚
'Part has to do with my love of beauty! The important things are not how one looks but how one is able to connect to other people and the world around one.' - what a beautiful beautiful woman! She looks creative, dainty and so able. So young! Wonderful video.
Thanks for taking the time to enjoy and appreciate her story. And we agree - she is incredibly creative, wonderfully. young, and so vibrant :)
The magic and power of a heart broken open. Thank you, so very much, for being open and vulnerable with us, and for inviting us in to share the view of the world through your eyes. You enrich our lives with your gift.
💚
This woman has found beauty in her life in spite of never being recognised for the beauty that she is. What an incredible story and a remarkable woman. I would love to have tea and spend many days painting with her! This truly moved me, thank you 🤍✨
@Undefind Life - Thank you for seeing the value in the sharing of these personal stories x
How sad to grow up without being cherished. I remember standing in front of the mirror, sometimes naked and finding myself so beautiful, and not understanding how nobody else saw it. For those of us not made to an accepted norm, I happen to think we are even more beautiful because of our differences. I always saw myself much better than others, and still do, now 69 looking 48 not a wrinkle on me, I am quite beautiful ❤️, and I see her beauty, I hope she could see it too. Blessings 💕🙏🕊️✝️
💚
She's become beautiful.
@13sempere - She most definately IS 💚
She has indeed. And I feel very drawn to her! RjB
My parents were cruel as well and I too made many wrong turns. For most of my life being an orphan seemed to fit until my siblings of the great mother earth begin to cross my path. I just discovered yet another, a new beautiful sister! Thank you for sharing and God bless. 😊❤
💚
I just turned 60 today, fighting against a depression, my youngest daughter left the house this weekend…. The message from this BEAUTIFUL woman is just what I needed! So inspiring! All of her messages are, in fact. Thank you so much for sharing this inspring video🙏
A belated happy birthday to you, wishing you all the best for the year ahead despite the struggles you currently have.
We are so glad that this video was so positive and helpful, may her message give you courage and strength to march on. Try and stay positive.
It sounds like you know about all the other videos but here are the links again: 'Love Mummy' (ruclips.net/video/miLs1AfMrIY/видео.html), 'Now You Are Free' (ruclips.net/video/Np-uU-tH6oU/видео.html) and ‘We Didn’t Know’ (ruclips.net/video/cdpIec1iG6E/видео.html). Sending you much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
One of the most courageous and inspiring testimonials ever.
Thank you for seeing the value and the beauty in this short film.
And if you missed it, we've filmed two other stories with Jenny as well -
"Love, Mummy" - ruclips.net/video/miLs1AfMrIY/видео.html
Now You Are Free - ruclips.net/video/Np-uU-tH6oU/видео.html
Big love and much kindness to you. Justine and Michael x
@@ReflectionsofLife I hadn't missed it :-)
My God! What a beautiful lady. And what a beautiful spirit. I felt her pain as a child. This video made me feel good. Maybe there's hope for me yet it's 71. I love the work you guys do. Thank you so much. Uh
@Chiefonelung - One big lesson that Jenny has taught us is that it is NEVER EVER too late x
This is probably the 20th time I have watched this video. Such beautiful beautiful words she speaks. It seems to tug at my Heartstrings. I am 71 years old now and as a child I was always told by my father that I was worthless and I was a piece of shit. I would never amount to anything. I could never please him no matter how hard I tried to do things that would surprise and make him happy only to be knocked down. There was also physical abuse and beatings. Somehow I survived. I became a nurse and travel to other parts of the world as a volunteer nurse in Village areas of different countries. And in my father's mind that did not come up to his standards. That was a failure and a weakness of a man to do such a job as a nurse. I never married and of course never had children. I always believed deep inside that I was not worthy of being happy and sharing my life with another person. I always believed also that I would never have the kindness and love in my heart to give to a child. I do have two little dogs that I love very dearly. They are the joy of my life. I have fought for so many years as to Who I am. Only now in my life I'm beginning to see the person that I am. This video has given me so much hope that I still have time to pick up more pieces of my soul that is scattered on the ground. I certainly wish that I could meet this lady. I would hug her so tightly and I would hope she had a very absorbent towel on her shoulder for all the tears of joy that I would shed and thank her for her beautiful words. And also thank you guys for the beautiful work that you do. This is my second comment on this video. The first one I was so overwhelmed I could hardly think of the words I wanted to say. If you see her again please give her an extra large hug for me. I am not an artist but I love Mother Nature. I live on a farm that I own in the mountains of East Tennessee. I spend my days hiking and wandering about in Mother Nature. Sitting by a small stream or waterfall for hours It seems to replenish my soul with a new energy and a new start for another day. Again, I thank you guys very much. Love and peace to all of you.
@Chiefonelung - Your messages always reach in and touch our hearts. Thank you for sharing here with us, such intimate details. I am sorry to hear of the way that your father treated you. But am glad that you find a sense of calm and belief through the words that Jenny shares in this film. I will DEFINATELY wrap my arms around her and give her a big love filled hug from you, when I next see her again. xxxxxx
Votre témoignage me touche ,moi aussi j'ai souffert d'une maman qui ne me valorisait pas et qui ne manifestait pas de tendresse...avec le temps, j'apprends à accepter cela ,nos mères font ce qu'elles peuvent...et nous essayons de grandir en étant meilleurs. ..❤ tendresse pour vous ❤
She is so beautiful in her determinations, paintings, honesty, laughs..such a beautiful being as a person. I would draw you.
The only beautiful you weren’t Jenny Jackson was your Mother’s definition of beauty.
💚
Please, allow me to say that you've really made it, not just tried! The proof is your smile against all odds. I salute you, beautiful being! 🌹🌹🌹 wish you the very best! 🤗❤🤗
Your fims are made in such quality and so exquisite, I'm enjoying every second of them.
Finally a story of one of "invisible" human being, all mainstream became devoted only to handsome people and it seems that nobody sees that most people are not handsome, but have an inner beauty.
I'm definetley one of them, so ugly and so funny to everyone from the outside, but reach inside, hope that some day I would also making beautiful paintings and write interesting stories. Thank you for this.
@ekscentar1 - Beautiful comment - thanks for your kind words. And we send you hugs from South Africa x
Mother’s words can hurt so much, even when your 60...
I think you are lovely but it really doesn’t matter what I think, it’s the fact that you must love yourself.
What a wondeful,positive spirit this lady has.Hope she is still alive and enjoying her life in Hermanus.
Thank you Joan, she is very much alive and still enjoying life in Hermanus. There are even two more videos with Jenny on our channel: 'Love Mummy' (ruclips.net/video/miLs1AfMrIY/видео.html) and 'Now You Are Free' (ruclips.net/video/Np-uU-tH6oU/видео.html). Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Why do parents have kids and then have no love or compassion for them😥...you are a beautiful soul and I'm pleased you have found peace in this world ....thank you for sharing 💕
💚
Amazing how simple words can stimulate deep thoughts & emotional growth

All babies are born beautiful, and you are still beautiful and wise. I have just found this channel and subscribed to it. Thank you for your beautiful renditions about your life experiences. I am 77 years old and having lived painful experiences in my childhood and youth, I understand where you come from, where you are at, and where you are heading to psychologically speaking. Thank you!

Sounds like we had the same mom. Enduring legacy I have been reflecting on the same thoughts. Good video full of depth thank you. Right teacher for me at the right time I just turned 62.
First impression was what a gorgeous smile...I wish people never regretted their journey..
You're beautiful. You have a great soul. You just had the misfortune to have an unloving cruel mother.
You must be very proud of yourself for what you had to face and overcome! It doesn't matter how long it took you to figure out yourself.
"You did try! And you did succeed!"
Your smile proves it!
There are many people out in the world, apparently beautiful on the outside but shallow and empty on the inside.
Don't worry what people think about you. Love yourself. Do what you love. Love what you do. Keep peace with yourself.
Namaste🙏
💚💚💚
"I will regret less going to my grave " ....what a statement !!! I honestly hope you will have no regrets by then ! Just know that you touched my soul , and i also want you to know that you are a beautiful person , with beautiful art, and beautiful way of telling a story!
Thank you Green Renaissance for all the beautiful footage you bring to us ... you guys have no idea how you manage to fill my hearth up, with so much warmth and love !
Thanks Drew - watch our for tomorrow's new film which is a quick follow up we did with Jenny. She is a beautiful soul.
Thank you for your message.
Jenny is beautiful from the inside out. With all life has thrown so cruelly at her, shd has emerged triumphant, wise. A vibrant and bubbly soul she is. It warms my heart the last 20 years were fantastic for her. She is is so brave sharing her life experiences and wisdom with us all. She is extraordinary ❤
Wow, touching words. Glad Jenny's life story speaks to you so deeply.
You probably have watched the other videos with her already but here are the links again: ‘Love Mummy' (ruclips.net/video/miLs1AfMrIY/видео.html), ‘Now You Are Free’ (ruclips.net/video/Np-uU-tH6oU/видео.html) and ‘We Didn’t Know’ (ruclips.net/video/cdpIec1iG6E/видео.html). Much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
"L'essentiel est invisible pour les yeux" Le Petit Prince, Antoine de Saint Exupéry.
She is beautiful. Inner beauty is what it is all about, and she has worked hard to become so.
@Videos with Vince - We agree, you've said it so nicely. Justine x
Janet's artwork is hauntingly beautiful...as is she xx
Miss Jenny, put simply, You Are beautiful. Inside and Out. Nuff said.
💚
Jenny you are an inspiration to every that touches your life and I feel honored and privileged to be your friend. Your words are going to heal so many people, thank you for sharing it with us
Rossouw Modern
Well said young man. X
You are beautiful. I was shocked to hear that as your regret. I can see it and I'm so sorry that you were treated so poorly. Hearing those words from your mother would wound deeply. Your mom may have looked beautiful on the outside but her insides were a mess. You have beauty through and through.
I feel like I'm not alone. Someone else feels like I do about beauty, has been lonely, on the outside. I feel hopeful and inspired. Thank you.
And that's why we share these films Martyna, to remind us all that we're never alone. And that from difficult and challenging times, we can rise up again. May you continue to carry hope in your heart. Much love. Justine and Michael x
What a beautiful, beautiful lady Jenny is. She radiates!
Beautiful, thank you.
We have more videos with her on our channel, here are all the links: ‘Love Mummy' (ruclips.net/video/miLs1AfMrIY/видео.html), ‘Now You Are Free’ (ruclips.net/video/Np-uU-tH6oU/видео.html) and ‘We Didn’t Know’ (ruclips.net/video/cdpIec1iG6E/видео.html). Warmest hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
@@ReflectionsofLife thank you! Appreciate it.
My first thought in seeing her as the video begins to play was one of beauty. And when she goes on to speak about her biggest regret in life is not being beautiful ! I was totally taken back! Because the lovely lady I was watching on TV was absolutely Stunning to me. Her entire being is one of profound Beauty. I hope she knows we see her as beautiful in every way. And I want to thank her for sharing a part of her jorney with us all! Transcending love..Wow
@MiaAvee Mayo - THANK YOU for seeing what truly is!
Beautifully timed, beautifully told and oh what a beautiful piece of my day. Cherished from this moment forward. I could just sit on a porch with a cup of coffee and listen to this extraordinarily beautiful human being for weeks and weeks.❤
@Rainbow in the clouds - Then you should keep tuned in - we're exploring the idea of a follow up film with Jenny, which we will hopefully be ready to share by end of this year, else early 2021 :)
You exude beauty in all forms, wit, physical, well spoken, vulnerable, and honest. Bless.
💚
*I came back to re-watch this video because of the recent video "Love, Mummy"*
*Now, I understand fully what she meant.*
@Queen Dahlia - Thanks for taking the time to watch both films, and for appreciating the fullness of her story - a journey of resilience, strength, courage, compassion and love. Hugs to you x
