I don't know who will read this. I am a 22-year-old child development specialist who both works and studies, and I am also a young teacher. Every year of my life has been very difficult. I survived a very severe depression between the ages of 17 and 19, and I am still healing my inner child. Working with children helps with this, and at the same time I help them. I am healing my childhood, which I cannot remember having, with them. Unfortunately, I discovered the channel a little late, but I came across it at a time when I was struggling in the dark. I couldn't count how many stories I listened to, but people I may never have met in my life made me feel closer to many people I knew. Thank you for this, I'm glad to have you. Finally, I would add that years ago I said to my psychologist, "I don't feel like I have a place in the world as I am. With who I am." That's why this video was important to me. I'm still fighting to prevent the light within me from being extinguished by storms. Yet, despite all the evil, I will continue to shine like a lighthouse. Thank you.
I am so sorry about your painful struggle in life. My affirmation for you is that the veil of suffering is now being lifted and you are able to experience much joy for the remainder of your life. Please be open to receiving this. 💓
Where do you find these wonderful humans? Why is the media / internet full of one dimensional celebrities / business motivational gurus rather than the multi-dimensional souls you give me. This woman is creative, articulate, genuine, she is all of us If we are willing, to let the masks we hide behind fall away. Im with her I don’t want to stop at the surface. She lives a deeply rich open, present life. Isn’t that what we all want? She inspires and encourages me to be my true self, as James Hollis says …our goal to have guts to be our truly eccentric selves… Thank you reflections of life 💚
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and views, interesting to read. So glad her message spok to you, and encouraged and inspired you. Regarding your question - The people we interview surround us all every day actually. It's about making the time to truly listen to each other, with open hearts and minds. And when we do that, something opens up and wonderful things can be shared. Some people we simply meet on the street, some are suggested by other people, and some we stumble across while reading articles or watching other videos. We hope to share many more inspiring stories with you. Sending you warmest of hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
I felt her when she said, keep going... I have survived two wars. Hunger, brutality of war and injuries... PTSD and extreme anxieties and panic attacks of losing your friends. Keep going you, who read this, may the universe help you overcome whatever is pressing you down. Keep going, keep moving forward... Everything will be alright at the end. Keep moving...
Touching words. Thank you for watching and sharing these words of encouragement and positivity with us. All the best further. Sending much love and kindness to you. Justine and Michael. 💚
You write it is "insane" that Nicole ( the subject of the film ) said that "others helped her" ( overcome her trauma and pain ) even though it was "infected by others"! Well, indeed your statement was "blunt", but if you think about it... it's logical and not insane at all that others can be the cause of problems and solutions : someone caused a trauma ( accident ) which by definition is an "accident" and usually not intentional and someone else helped overcome the pain... perhaps doctors and counsellors !? Really, some people help and some people cause problems... we need others, no ?
@thewanderingjew1793 It sounds like you forgot to take your medications!! 💊 💊 So we all know ZERO about you - well thank goodness for that! because judging by your thoughtless comments towards others, your video would be very tacky indeed!! Then you start attacking the little doggy knowing ZERO about this lady's dog and their special bond. If an animal doesn't trust or like someone they don't stay close or sit on their lap. The dog is clearly a good buddy of hers. Does that upset you? You're super judgemental! Put your ego in check, calm down and maybe try write a poem to get all your frustrations out. It would be more meaningful for you and would spare us your destructive criticisms of this lady. You can't be a lighthouse if you are all rain 🌧 and no rainbow 🌈 think about that if you dare?
Thanks for taking the time to reply to me and to underline the "errors" in "the point" I was trying to make and that of the woman in the film (ie. others can help overcome trauma ) and that I "missed your point entirely". Sorry for that. Without arguing ; I still don't understand your point of view and wonder what kind of trauma can cause a human being to turn their backs on humans entirely ? I am very sorry that you must know or even experience such trauma which by nature is pathogen. Yes, I'd like to understand the sentence you wrote " due to the nature of their trauma no longer wish to engage with others. Can you understand that?" Not really, perhaps something that makes one so traumatised and deceived about "others" that one can no longer trust and open up to another human ever again? War crimes such as torture perhaps ? Traumatised soldiers sometimes find healing to live with dogs...
It’s so true! I’m glad you noticed Justine and Michael’s loving embrace of our fur family members. ✨ As Anatole France said, “Until one has loved an animal a part of one’s soul remains unawakened.”
Wow. I am truly touched by your words. When you said, "It’s one thing to be a chameleon, to alter one’s colors to each new environment. It’s another to live as the rainbow one already is. Who doesn’t pause to admire a rainbow?" it deeply moved me. Once again, Reflections of Life has done it again. Love this channel! 🌈
Your words are so touching and encouraging. So glad her words meant so much to you. Nice to have you with us on this journey. Much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
It’s an honor to know that something I expressed in my writing-and Reflections of Life included in their film-has touched you so. Thank you! 🦋 Justine and Michael certainly have done it again! 🫧

I shyed away for my High Sensitivity (HSP) for 72 years using anti depression medication for 30+ years. Very slowly i deminished my medication and since 2 years i am completely clean. I was fed up with Pharma , was convinced anti vaccin, started swimming up to now (almost for 4 years), even in the winter, changed my diet and did mindfull meditation in the night. Through a stroke of insight i became aware that my HSP became my strenght. Since than I am enjoying life again, even though i sometimes fall back into sobriety moods for a short time. Its part of my HSP and excepting it as part of my life makes a big change. About 4 weeks ago i came acros your beautifull site and since than i listen to 1 story/video every morning. Many thumbs up for your excellent work 🙏
Beautiful, we are so glad you were able to make all these changes and are feeling and doing so much better. Wishing you strength and joy for every new day. And we are so happy that you came across our channel and enjoy the stories we share. Sending much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
As both a Buddhist and a retired Police Dog Handler (K9 Officer) this video touched me in so many ways and on so many levels and I thank you for it. The wonderful dog's name of Buddhafly delights me do much.
Thank you so much, for opening your heart to Nicole's story, and for allowing her messages to resonate so deeply with you. Sending you warmest of wishes for the weekend ahead. Justine and Michael. 💚
Delightful to hear that my story reached you on so many levels, thank you. Thought you might enjoy this wee story: I once had a beautiful dog I named Dahlia after my favorite flower. Her second name was Lama in honor of his holiness the Dalai Lama. When I was in India for Ayurvedic treatment of the headaches, I wrote him a note in appreciation of his sense of humor included a photo of her. He didn’t respond but didn’t need to… I just wanted him to know she existed. 🙏
Emotional/mental pain is invisible like that too, leaves you immobilized, unable to function and put one foot in front of the other. Other humans just roll their collective eyes and judge you as weak. Love and light to this beautiful human and her Buddahfly, so full of words she is bubbling over💜
The words " After living many years with chronic pain is that I am an extremely much more empathetic person to those who are suffering" touch me so hard because i too suffered pain for many years and feeling the same vibes .Pain moulded and shaping me who iam today and I am growing gracefully by Jesus love. Thank you reflection group this channel is a therapy to to the world. Keep going 🙏
I woke up through intense pain and am on my own journey of appreciating this life and this world. This film speaks volumes about how an individual can effect the world and the other souls in it. Simply be a light. One that helps others find their own way. Thanks for sharing this.
You are welcome. So glad her story meant much to you. Wishing you all the best, may her words help you on your own journey through life. Warmest hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
@@dianajohn9150 “A lonely place I call me”, I’ve never heard it put so plainly. I feel this truth as well. It feels like a world for those who like to break stuff and those who are broken. The only way we make a better place is through us, the broken ones. We have to find it in ourselves, if we find our own light then we have a better chance of finding each other. Bless you too.
Sat down to watch this short film, didn't initially feel much connection.... until she mentioned her incredible journey of physical pain and eventual giving in. Very profound, and I'm glad she now lives with such freedom. Greetings from Australia
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. We are glad her story grew on you. Thank you for your kind words. Sending you warmest of hugs from South Africa, Justine and Michael. 💚
This lady is magical! I've been watching your videos all day today. Thank god I came accross your channel! God bless you for your videography, music and most importantly for these wonderful people! 🙏
Wow, thank you for your kind and encouraging words about our work . We are glad you came across our channel and enjoy the videos we share. Happy watching. Sending much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
That's an awesome onesie. Daily chronic ongoing pain is a horrendous thing to have to cope with, and everyone just expects you to pretend it's not there, and function as you did before.
You’re spot on about the coping aspect of chronic pain. Something that helped on my journey was when I realized I couldn’t change what anyone else thought about me. It was liberating - when I remembered to apply the knowledge! Glad you like my onesie - there are many designs of it out there! 🦋
Wonderful to know that this struck such a deep chord within you. We're glad to know that you'll be carrying these words forward with you in your heart. Warmest of wishes. Justine and Michael 💚
Jest Pani dzielną, mądrą i radosną osobą.... Trudne doświadczenia nie spowodowaly zgorzknienia... wręcz przeciwnie... docenienie cudnych chwil i radości życia...
I have chronic pain and pulsatile tinnitus for many years … this video gave me new hope 🙏😍 I don’t have to live my life like a chameleon anymore .. now I want to surrender and become a 🦋 and a 🌈
Thank you for sharing a bit about yourself. We are glad that her story encouraged you and that you have renewed hope. May you feel a bit more strength and see more light every day. Sending you warmest of hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
I am so pleased that my story in Justine and Michael’s film reached you with hopefulness! Keep flying lovely butterfly, the world needs your light. 🦋♥️✨
Это действительно ЧУДО.. я знаю о чем это 🙌.. Благодарю вас в очередной раз за невероятных людей и возможность с ними соединять ся таким вот чудесным способом 🙏🤗❤
We are so happy that we can share all these different videos with you. Nice to have you with us on our journey. Sending much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
It is so calming and peaceful to hear her talk. What she says is so true and simple. To live is to live. Her poems are so heart warming - how do I get her book or access to read more of her poems. In my late 40s, I am going through a very hard time in my life. Tears poured out of my eyes when she talked and read her poems. I am very alone in this journey and fighting to find hope everyday morning when I wake up. This channel gives me a window to learn from so many good souls.
Thank you for your touching message. Sorry to hear that you are struggling at this time. We are glad that this video and others are helping you, that the videos give you hope and positivity. Thank you for asking about the book, it's called 'Unique, Like Everyone'. The website link is queenjesterpress.com (the info is also in the write-up below the video). Sending much love and kindness to you. Justine and Michael. 💚
Justine and Michael’s films truly are uplifting and encouraging. And they help us know we are not separate from humanity. I’m so pleased you enjoyed my story and poems. ‘Unique, Like Everyone’ has gone to second printing and we will be fulfilling orders again by mid-late July when it’s printed. Keep shining, you are a necessary lighthouse here. ✨🦋
Being childlike makes us see the world in wonderment instead of judgment. We are miracles like the facets on a diamond; together we sparkle and shed our light on the world. Amazing soul, Amazing life. We are love.
At the beginning, I was tempted to switch off, but then I decided to watch to the end. Good decision, because listening to her and her lifes journey, what she went through and made her transform into the person she is now is calming and indeed a light for challenging, dark times. People can only mature by facing stormy days and rough waters. We manage to go through, whenever we focus on "lighthouses" or the center of our faith. I really loved the way she expressed it: Not to be there to show the boats where to go, but being a light to find their own way. I am glad that she is not suffering from pain any more! Thank you so much for sharing ❣️🙂
We appreciate your thoughts and kind words. So glad her message spoke to you after an initial reluctance. Sending you warmest of hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Thank you for opting to dive in when you could have tuned out. I’m so pleased my story and sentiment on living as a lighthouse resonated and made an impact on your life. Thank you. 🦋
As Bob Dylan sang: "But I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now". Bubbles, rainbow, butterfly, the bliss of coming back to Life. Bless you beautiful and so strong butterfly. 🙏🏼♥️
Nice story. We all are unique and special. Suffering is part of life. Sometimes life changed for better after trauma and people become more sensitive and compassionate. This woman is great poet and beautiful person. She is like rainbow and a lighthouse.
Justine and Michael, thank you for this beautiful and enduring work. Can't imagine enduring a headache for 14 years, thank you for this story and, Nicole, thank you for the bubbles and your beautiful light...
That was such a poignant story. I am so happy for this young woman butterflies are such a beautiful way to show transformation and and new life Thank you!🦋🦋🌏💛💛Pain is tough when others cannot see it or feel your suffering. I can empathize completely. I totally get it sometimes when I’m in so much pain I feel like putting a sling on my arm so people can see I’m in pain whether it be emotional or physical They’re more app to understand when they can physically see something sad to say but true. Know you are loved and are being heard you find it in the least likely place. ❤
Thank you for your empathetic embrace. I’m so pleased Justine and Michael’s film (of one of my stories!) crossed your radar. I hear you when you say you’ve been compelled to provide physical evidence of internal strife whatever its origin. Though it would be easier, some still wouldn’t see it. We owe no one an explanation or proof. Keep shining! 🦋🫧✨
Herzlichen Dank, fühle Verbundenheit ... und kann es nachvollziehen was kontinuierliche körperliche Schmerzen sind... bin sehr berührt... von dieser wunderschönen Seele.
We are so happy that her message meant so much to you. So glad we could share her story with you. If you are struggling with chronic pain, we wish you all the best and strength for every new day. Much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
Struggles, hurt, pains, and setbacks make us stronger and reveal our resilience in the face of challenges. Our vulnerability is a testament to our humanity, and it's okay to be vulnerable. Life has taken me on a rollercoaster ride, teaching me that I'm stronger and more unique than I ever thought possible. I may not have everything, but I have myself, and I'm unapologetically shining my light for being authentic. I embrace my individuality and uniqueness, and I'm grateful to the universe for my strength and resilience. Life is a beautiful journey; let's embrace it and show the world that we are a beautiful part of this whole. Thank you so much @Reflections of Life for this
Wow, so touching, so encouraging. Thank you for sharing all these thoughts. It makes us very happy to read that Nicole's story resonated with you so deeply. We wish you all the best and happiness on your journey through life. Sending much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
So beautifully written, and thank you for the bubbles. Glad we could share Nicole's story with you. Sending you warmest of hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Thank you Nicole , Justine and Michael ! Mystique uniqueness and fragility of bubbles reminds me billions of human souls of this realm... popping in , flying , touching ,sometimes merging and eventually bursting all this happening in our shared big Bubble, our world . HPL to ALL !
Estou emocionada! Tornei- me poetisa depois de uma grande dor existencial! A poesia me salvou...E eu escrevo para falar de amor e leveza como sentimentos indispensáveis para tornar a vida mais plena e bela! Como as borboletas que nos lembram que somos sobreviventes, após uma grande e necessária metamorfose! Este canal é maravilhoso! Pessoas inspiram pessoas! Gratidão! ❤
Such a touching message. Wonderful that poetry plays such an important part in your life as well. Glad we can inspire you with the videos we share. Sending much love and kindness to you. Justine and Michael. 💚
I love your language and your poetically alive vision and you as a wonderful human that shares our world 🌎, 💖 i would love you as a friend, so genuine and real and creative and caring, making people feel better 😊❣️ and wise 🦉..thank you 🙏
Reflections of Life has done it again, thankyou 🙏. Nicoles astonishing journey sits with the many other astonishing expriences and experiencers and re-builds my faith in humanity. How can anyone ever understand the life she has had so far... 14 years of pain, where do I find the words? I could try but she obviously has the "gift" of experience and the gift of God given talent to describe so beautifully. Love to you Nicole, love to you "Reflections" and love to all that read this... inspired by an amazing human 🤍🙏
Such lovely and touching words, thank you. We are so thankful that her story meant much to you, glad we could share it. Sending much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
What a beautiful and recognisable story...the go-ahead there at a time when you surrender to that which is and then.....flow on, flow on in the name of the child...that you were and still are. Love to you, you beautiful poet.🩵
This has touched me more than words can express. "...unzip my proverbial chest to show my heart." Thank you for what you gift the world with these recordings...in rainbows.
Your words touch us, we are so glad her words spoke to you so deeply. Nice to have you with us on our journey, that we can share these videos with you. Much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
Thank you for sharing this. My sister has had daily migraines for nearly 20 years and despite her faith it persists. She does a lot for her children and family despite the pain. ❤❤❤
We are thankful that we could share this video with you. We wish your sister all the best, may the pain lift, we wish that for her. Sending much love and kindness. Justine and Michael. 💚
Oh, my gosh. What a relaxing delight to listen to her- her story, and her view on life. It is refreshing, soft, gentle, and yet a little encouraging push in the right direction.
This channel is my go-to in between breaks at work. Never fails to give me a fresh perspective on the beauty of my life, our lives, and this world we live in. Thank you @reflectionsoflife. Your impact is endless. --- much LOVE from the Philippines :)
Our pleasure, thank you for your kind and encouraging message! We are so pleased that the videos we share mean such a lot to you. We hope that we can share many more with you. Sending you warmest of hugs from South Africa, Justine and Michael. 💚
I knew from the title I'd watched this film before, but I recalled how much I enjoyed it the first time, so I watched it again. I'm so glad I did. This woman has an authenticity about her that is palpable. What a gorgeous soul she is ❤
So wonderful to hear that you chose to revisit this film again, allowing Nicole's story to lift your spirits once more. We send you warmest of hugs. Justine and Michael x
Thank You so very much This brought tearscto my eyes I too live with chronic pain daily i seriously can't remember a but a few days without it I also live with tge pain of looseing a child Everything you said so touched me
Wow, this goes deep. May her words give you strength and courage for your own life, when your chronic pain (also emotionally) is overwhelming. Sending much love and kindness to you. Justine and Michael. 💚
So wonderful to know that you find value in revisiting this story! Thanks for seeing value in all that Nicole shared with us. Warm hugs. Justine and Michael. x
Thank you for sharing your story and your poetry. Your inner joy from such a life experience is wondrous to behold. You are a unique gift to our world. Stay blessed.❤
Lovely! We are so happy we could share her story with you. It would be wonderful and special if you could meet again. Sending much love from South Africa. Justine and Michael. 💚
Just SOOOO beautiful Thank you, thank you thank you for sharing. This reminds me so much of my story and I had a lot of emotions as I watched! I shared it with others. Bless you. You’re beautiful. Your writing is beautiful and I love the bubbles out the window idea…. We need to lighten up!! 🫧🫧🫧 Much love!!💕 I ADORE this channel, BTW. Thank you 🥹
It's so wonderful to have you here with us, on this journey together, as we explore more about our shared humanity. Sending you love. Justine and Michael. 💚
It makes us happy to read your message, thank you. So glad we could share her story with you. Sending you warmest of hugs from South Africa, Justine and Michael. 💚
I’m 20 yrs in to chronic pain from a weight lifting accident. You give me hope. You are such an inspiration. I hope I find a way to surrender and find my way back to loving myself. Thank you for beating such a beautiful butterfly that figured out how to transform from the cocoon of pain
We are so thankful that Nicole's words gave you hope. May her words carry and encourage you so that things can change for yourself as well. We wish you all the best and strength for every new day. Sending much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
I luved this interview! A beautiful soul w/great insight, depth & genuineness. I admire her writing ability & her poetry (from her soul)! Very gifted woman! Thank you for sharing this story w/us & the beautiful writings!
You are welcome. We are really grateful that you enjoyed listening to Nicole's story. Thank you for you kind and encouraging words. Much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
Magnificently constructed intimate interview of Nicole who had a traumatic ski accident that swept her from her feet and broke her life (chronic pain "loss of self", despair and depression) ... yet with a happy ending ( after 14 years of pain ) and virtuous reconquering of her life. Wonderful filming with a sensitivity to life in the style that is your own. A humble reminder to try to enjoy every day when we can and that an accident / health can break us quickly... and leave terrible pain and trauma ! Thank God Nicole could overcome the pain and trauma and was lucky to have a positive outcome in the end, and the strength to be patient till her pathology got better! Now she has great empathy for people suffering. Not everyone gets better after such accidents ! People (and children) who have never suffered usually inflict suffering to others without knowing / feeling what they are doing to others. God bless, Mike
Beautiful.. Thank you 🙏 i love your spirit.. So many gems of wisdom and beauty here... Wisdom borne of suffering and true experience..beauty born from the wish and wonder of your unique Soul. ❤️
As a very kind person, I often wonder why people aren't always nice to each other. I try to be kind to everyone I meet, even if I don't know them. My goal is to make others happy and smile. I used to think I was the only one who felt this way, but after seeing her, I realized I can relate to her a lot. I concluded that it's okay if not everyone is kind, but you should still be kind and try to make others happy or at least smile. Thank you for being such a wonderful person. “Be like a lighthouse” 🫂♥️
Beautiful message. We are so glad her message spoke to you and encouraged you. Keep on smiling and making others happy. Sending much love, Justine and Michael. 💚

I have survived two wars.
Hunger, brutality of war and injuries...
PTSD and extreme anxieties and panic attacks of losing your friends.
Keep going you, who read this, may the universe help you overcome whatever is pressing you down.

I like the insight that a lighthouse does not control where people steer their boat. It is simply a light in the darkness.

@thewanderingjew1793
It sounds like you forgot to take your medications!! 💊 💊
So we all know ZERO about you - well thank goodness for that! because judging by your thoughtless comments towards others, your video would be very tacky indeed!!

So many of these beautiful portraits contain cherished dogs and cats. I think good people see the wisdom and love in animals.
Thank you for your kind comment. Very true, may people have a pet, they are friends and part of the family. Warmest hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
It’s so true! I’m glad you noticed Justine and Michael’s loving embrace of our fur family members. ✨
As Anatole France said, “Until one has loved an animal a part of one’s soul remains unawakened.”
Namaste ….❤
Wow. I am truly touched by your words. When you said, "It’s one thing to be a chameleon, to alter one’s colors to each new environment. It’s another to live as the rainbow one already is. Who doesn’t pause to admire a rainbow?" it deeply moved me. Once again, Reflections of Life has done it again. Love this channel! 🌈
Your words are so touching and encouraging. So glad her words meant so much to you. Nice to have you with us on this journey. Much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
It’s an honor to know that something I expressed in my writing-and Reflections of Life included in their film-has touched you so. Thank you! 🦋
Justine and Michael certainly have done it again! 🫧

I shyed away for my High Sensitivity (HSP) for 72 years using anti depression medication for 30+ years. Very slowly i deminished my medication and since 2 years i am completely clean. I was fed up with Pharma , was convinced anti vaccin, started swimming up to now (almost for 4 years), even in the winter, changed my diet and did mindfull meditation in the night. Through a stroke of insight i became aware that my HSP became my strenght. Since than I am enjoying life again, even though i sometimes fall back into sobriety moods for a short time. Its part of my HSP and excepting it as part of my life makes a big change. About 4 weeks ago i came acros your beautifull site and since than i listen to 1 story/video every morning. Many thumbs up for your excellent work 🙏
Beautiful, we are so glad you were able to make all these changes and are feeling and doing so much better. Wishing you strength and joy for every new day. And we are so happy that you came across our channel and enjoy the stories we share. Sending much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
As both a Buddhist and a retired Police Dog Handler (K9 Officer) this video touched me in so many ways and on so many levels and I thank you for it. The wonderful dog's name of Buddhafly delights me do much.
Thank you so much, for opening your heart to Nicole's story, and for allowing her messages to resonate so deeply with you. Sending you warmest of wishes for the weekend ahead. Justine and Michael. 💚
Delightful to hear that my story reached you on so many levels, thank you.
Thought you might enjoy this wee story: I once had a beautiful dog I named Dahlia after my favorite flower. Her second name was Lama in honor of his holiness the Dalai Lama. When I was in India for Ayurvedic treatment of the headaches, I wrote him a note in appreciation of his sense of humor included a photo of her. He didn’t respond but didn’t need to… I just wanted him to know she existed. 🙏
Emotional/mental pain is invisible like that too, leaves you immobilized, unable to function and put one foot in front of the other. Other humans just roll their collective eyes and judge you as weak. Love and light to this beautiful human and her Buddahfly, so full of words she is bubbling over💜
Thank you for your deep and encouraging thoughts. Touching! Sending you warmest of hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
It’s true how other incarnations of pain are also invisible.
Love and light from me and BuddhaFly (and the bubbles!).
🐾🦋🫧
The words " After living many years with chronic pain is that I am an extremely much more empathetic person to those who are suffering" touch me so hard because i too suffered pain for many years and feeling the same vibes .Pain moulded and shaping me who iam today and I am growing gracefully by Jesus love. Thank you reflection group this channel is a therapy to to the world. Keep going 🙏
Nice that her story resonated with you. Glad you were able to leave the pain behind. Sending you warmest of hugs. Justine and Michael. 💚
I woke up through intense pain and am on my own journey of appreciating this life and this world. This film speaks volumes about how an individual can effect the world and the other souls in it. Simply be a light. One that helps others find their own way.
Thanks for sharing this.
You are welcome. So glad her story meant much to you. Wishing you all the best, may her words help you on your own journey through life. Warmest hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Me too ,is good to to read this from a lonely place I call me…bless all who have to process trauma that makes them feel broken.thank you.❤
@@dianajohn9150
“A lonely place I call me”, I’ve never heard it put so plainly. I feel this truth as well.
It feels like a world for those who like to break stuff and those who are broken. The only way we make a better place is through us, the broken ones. We have to find it in ourselves, if we find our own light then we have a better chance of finding each other. Bless you too.
I trust you will keep shining your light. And I’m honored my words moved you so. ✨
Sat down to watch this short film, didn't initially feel much connection.... until she mentioned her incredible journey of physical pain and eventual giving in. Very profound, and I'm glad she now lives with such freedom.
Greetings from Australia
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. We are glad her story grew on you. Thank you for your kind words. Sending you warmest of hugs from South Africa, Justine and Michael. 💚
Yes you just keep going 🧡
Way to dive in! I’m so glad you stayed with the film past your first impression. Thanks for your well-wishes. 🫧
Being childlike is my daily dose of joy. Thank you so much for sharing your story. You’re a lighthouse. Blessings to you, Blessings to all.
So happy you enjoyed listening to Nicole's story. Thank you for the kind wishes. Much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
This lady is magical! I've been watching your videos all day today. Thank god I came accross your channel! God bless you for your videography, music and most importantly for these wonderful people! 🙏
Wow, thank you for your kind and encouraging words about our work . We are glad you came across our channel and enjoy the videos we share. Happy watching. Sending much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
That's an awesome onesie. Daily chronic ongoing pain is a horrendous thing to have to cope with, and everyone just expects you to pretend it's not there, and function as you did before.
Thank you for your kind and caring message. Glad you liked the onesie. Much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
You’re spot on about the coping aspect of chronic pain. Something that helped on my journey was when I realized I couldn’t change what anyone else thought about me. It was liberating - when I remembered to apply the knowledge! Glad you like my onesie - there are many designs of it out there! 🦋
" My footprint is valid I will not tiptoe " Powerful Powerful words! to remember!
Wonderful to know that this struck such a deep chord within you. We're glad to know that you'll be carrying these words forward with you in your heart. Warmest of wishes. Justine and Michael 💚
Thank you so much, I’m honored my words reached you. Your presence matters. 🦋
I loved that she’s enjoying her joy with bubbles💖
Nice that you enjoyed that so much. Warmest hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
I highly recommend bubble joy! 🫧
Such a heartfelt and well-spoken story. I loved this one. ❤
So happy you enjoyed it. Warmest hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Thank you for your kind words. It’s an honor to have my story flying out in the world through this film. 🦋
The bubble wand story is beautiful. Such a kind soul with many facets of love and understanding.
Really happy you liked the video, thank you for watching. Warmest hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Thank you, dear heart, for your lovely words. I hope you share bubbles with others, too! 🫧
Jest Pani dzielną, mądrą i radosną osobą....
Trudne doświadczenia nie spowodowaly zgorzknienia... wręcz przeciwnie... docenienie cudnych chwil i radości życia...
Beautifully said. We are glad you liked the message Nicole shared. Much love, Justine and Michael. 💚

I have chronic pain and pulsatile tinnitus for many years … this video gave me new hope 🙏😍
I don’t have to live my life like a chameleon anymore .. now I want to surrender and become a 🦋 and a 🌈
Thank you for sharing a bit about yourself. We are glad that her story encouraged you and that you have renewed hope. May you feel a bit more strength and see more light every day. Sending you warmest of hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
You are lovely, and you have a friend in me.
I have chronic pain and pulsatile tinnitus ... I so understand.
I am so pleased that my story in Justine and Michael’s film reached you with hopefulness! Keep flying lovely butterfly, the world needs your light. 🦋♥️✨

We are so happy that we can share all these different videos with you. Nice to have you with us on our journey. Sending much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
It is so calming and peaceful to hear her talk. What she says is so true and simple. To live is to live.
Her poems are so heart warming - how do I get her book or access to read more of her poems.
In my late 40s, I am going through a very hard time in my life. Tears poured out of my eyes when she talked and read her poems.
I am very alone in this journey and fighting to find hope everyday morning when I wake up.
This channel gives me a window to learn from so many good souls.
Thank you for your touching message. Sorry to hear that you are struggling at this time. We are glad that this video and others are helping you, that the videos give you hope and positivity.
Thank you for asking about the book, it's called 'Unique, Like Everyone'. The website link is queenjesterpress.com (the info is also in the write-up below the video). Sending much love and kindness to you. Justine and Michael. 💚
Justine and Michael’s films truly are uplifting and encouraging. And they help us know we are not separate from humanity.
I’m so pleased you enjoyed my story and poems. ‘Unique, Like Everyone’ has gone to second printing and we will be fulfilling orders again by mid-late July when it’s printed. Keep shining, you are a necessary lighthouse here. ✨🦋
Being childlike makes us see the world in wonderment instead of judgment. We are miracles like the facets on a diamond; together we sparkle and shed our light on the world. Amazing soul, Amazing life.
We are love.
Beautiful and touching words, thanks so much. Sending you warmest of hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
This lady... She speaks to my soul🦋
Thank you ❤
So happy her message meant much to you. Much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
I’m grateful your soul received my message. Thank you! 🦋♥️
At the beginning, I was tempted to switch off, but then I decided to watch to the end. Good decision, because listening to her and her lifes journey, what she went through and made her transform into the person she is now is calming and indeed a light for challenging, dark times. People can only mature by facing stormy days and rough waters. We manage to go through, whenever we focus on "lighthouses" or the center of our faith. I really loved the way she expressed it: Not to be there to show the boats where to go, but being a light to find their own way. I am glad that she is not suffering from pain any more!
Thank you so much for sharing ❣️🙂
We appreciate your thoughts and kind words. So glad her message spoke to you after an initial reluctance. Sending you warmest of hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Thank you for opting to dive in when you could have tuned out. I’m so pleased my story and sentiment on living as a lighthouse resonated and made an impact on your life. Thank you. 🦋
Lovely and incredible story 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
Thank you so much!
You are most welcome. So happy you appreciated her story. Much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
I’m so glad it reached you! Thank you for appreciating my story. ✨
As Bob Dylan sang: "But I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now". Bubbles, rainbow, butterfly, the bliss of coming back to Life. Bless you beautiful and so strong butterfly. 🙏🏼♥️
Thank you for quoting these words. So happy you appreciated the story Nicole shared. Sending you warmest of hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
I’m so glad her chronic pain is over. Going forward to a calmer, peaceful nourishing path.😘❤🙏🏻✨
So warmly written, so caring. Thank you. Much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
Thank you, dear one. I’m super glad about my life now, too. ♥️
Lady, you're truly a miracle.
Lovely, thank you. Warmest hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Wow! Just wow. She is truly a gift and I want to thank you for sharing a part of her story.
Our pleasure! We are so happy that you appreciated her openness so much. Sending you warmest of hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Nice story. We all are unique and special. Suffering is part of life. Sometimes life changed for better after trauma and people become more sensitive and compassionate. This woman is great poet and beautiful person. She is like rainbow and a lighthouse.
Than you for sharing your thoughts. So glad you enjoyed the video. Warmest wishes, Justine and Michael. 💚
Justine and Michael, thank you for this beautiful and enduring work. Can't imagine enduring a headache for 14 years, thank you for this story and, Nicole, thank you for the bubbles and your beautiful light...
So beautifully and kindly written, thank you. Nice to have you with us on our journey. Warmest hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
That was such a poignant story. I am so happy for this young woman butterflies are such a beautiful way to show transformation and and new life Thank you!🦋🦋🌏💛💛Pain is tough when others cannot see it or feel your suffering. I can empathize completely. I totally get it sometimes when I’m in so much pain I feel like putting a sling on my arm so people can see I’m in pain whether it be emotional or physical They’re more app to understand when they can physically see something sad to say but true. Know you are loved and are being heard you find it in the least likely place. ❤
Thank you for your kind and comforting message. Glad her words meant so much to you. Sending you warmest of hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Thank you for your empathetic embrace. I’m so pleased Justine and Michael’s film (of one of my stories!) crossed your radar.
I hear you when you say you’ve been compelled to provide physical evidence of internal strife whatever its origin. Though it would be easier, some still wouldn’t see it. We owe no one an explanation or proof. Keep shining! 🦋🫧✨
Herzlichen Dank, fühle Verbundenheit ... und kann es nachvollziehen was kontinuierliche körperliche Schmerzen sind... bin sehr berührt... von dieser wunderschönen Seele.
We are so happy that her message meant so much to you. So glad we could share her story with you. If you are struggling with chronic pain, we wish you all the best and strength for every new day. Much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
Struggles, hurt, pains, and setbacks make us stronger and reveal our resilience in the face of challenges.
Our vulnerability is a testament to our humanity, and it's okay to be vulnerable.
Life has taken me on a rollercoaster ride, teaching me that I'm stronger and more unique than I ever thought possible. I may not have everything, but I have myself, and I'm unapologetically shining my light for being authentic.
I embrace my individuality and uniqueness, and I'm grateful to the universe for my strength and resilience.
Life is a beautiful journey; let's embrace it and show the world that we are a beautiful part of this whole.
Thank you so much @Reflections of Life for this
Wow, so touching, so encouraging. Thank you for sharing all these thoughts. It makes us very happy to read that Nicole's story resonated with you so deeply. We wish you all the best and happiness on your journey through life. Sending much love, Justine and Michael. 💚

Reflections of Life has done it again, thankyou 🙏. Nicoles astonishing journey sits with the many other astonishing expriences and experiencers and re-builds my faith in humanity. How can anyone ever understand the life she has had so far... 14 years of pain, where do I find the words? I could try but she obviously has the "gift" of experience and the gift of God given talent to describe so beautifully.
Love to you Nicole, love to you "Reflections" and love to all that read this... inspired by an amazing human 🤍🙏
Such lovely and touching words, thank you. We are so thankful that her story meant much to you, glad we could share it. Sending much love, Justine and Michael. 💚

Touching message, thank you. Much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
What a beautiful and recognisable story...the go-ahead there at a time when you surrender to that which is and then.....flow on, flow on in the name of the child...that you were and still are. Love to you, you beautiful poet.🩵

I’m 20 yrs in to chronic pain from a weight lifting accident. You give me hope. You are such an inspiration. I hope I find a way to surrender and find my way back to loving myself. Thank you for beating such a beautiful butterfly that figured out how to transform from the cocoon of pain
We are so thankful that Nicole's words gave you hope. May her words carry and encourage you so that things can change for yourself as well. We wish you all the best and strength for every new day. Sending much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
What a warm, heartwarming message and video! I needed to see this today, thank you!
It's a pleasure. So happy you got to see the video on a day when you needed it. Much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
I luved this interview! A beautiful soul w/great insight, depth & genuineness. I admire her writing ability & her poetry (from her soul)! Very gifted woman! Thank you for sharing this story w/us & the beautiful writings!
You are welcome. We are really grateful that you enjoyed listening to Nicole's story. Thank you for you kind and encouraging words. Much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
Magnificently constructed intimate interview of Nicole who had a traumatic ski accident that swept her from her feet and broke her life (chronic pain "loss of self", despair and depression) ... yet with a happy ending ( after 14 years of pain ) and virtuous reconquering of her life.
Wonderful filming with a sensitivity to life in the style that is your own. A humble reminder to try to enjoy every day when we can and that an accident / health can break us quickly... and leave terrible pain and trauma !
Thank God Nicole could overcome the pain and trauma and was lucky to have a positive outcome in the end, and the strength to be patient till her pathology got better! Now she has great empathy for people suffering. Not everyone gets better after such accidents ! People (and children) who have never suffered usually inflict suffering to others without knowing / feeling what they are doing to others. God bless, Mike
Beautiful, encouraging and touching words, also many thoughts to ponder on. A big Thank You. Much love, Justine and Michael. 💚

As a very kind person, I often wonder why people aren't always nice to each other. I try to be kind to everyone I meet, even if I don't know them. My goal is to make others happy and smile. I used to think I was the only one who felt this way, but after seeing her, I realized I can relate to her a lot. I concluded that it's okay if not everyone is kind, but you should still be kind and try to make others happy or at least smile. Thank you for being such a wonderful person. “Be like a lighthouse” 🫂♥️
Beautiful message. We are so glad her message spoke to you and encouraged you. Keep on smiling and making others happy. Sending much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
