      also not trying to be all over you, but i sent you lyrics and chords to song i wrote called “Damp” during your show in Springfield MD on 9/11/18 and i would really just like to know if this song made it you and if you saw it. i really had some doubts about you actually seeing it, but it would mean the world to me if i could just know if you ever saw it. i will leave you alone after this i promise!

    here's more to add to that list:
    * fresh warm laundry out the dryer
    * when you get to put on said fresh warm laundry out the dryer
    * being on a road trip at night and looking up at the stars wondering what's really out there
    * warm homemade sugary baked goods
    * waking up and actually feeling refreshed
    * waking up and having a lie in, in a cocoon of warmth
    * tasting what would be your favourite food for the first time
    * finding something you lost long ago
    * when you win a competition and everyone is cheering for you and they're proud of you
    * staying up all night playing games

    • @elaina3295

      *There is a better way to express yourself than a while ago. You are born in the time you were Meant to be in.
      *Cats Purring
      *A loved one giving you affection. (Weather it be art, physical affection, or kind words

      Or some other ideas:
      - Being able to curl up under a blanket (or more, depending on the weather) and just watch shows, especially if you have someone with you
      - An hot shower after getting caught in the rain
      - the smell of rain after a surpisingly long bout of pleasantly dry weather
      - A mug of hot chocolate with your favourite toppings when you get in from the cold
      - That sense of relief when you've finally finished with something which was stressing you out, and you can just put it behind you
      - Curling up at home with a good book, especially one you've read before
      - Looking up at the night sky
      - Being able to know that, even if you may not be the best at something, at least you tried, so you can only improve with practice

      Here's more!
      *laying in bed after a long and productive day
      *the feeling when you're fresh out of the shower and curled up watching your favorite thing with a warm cup of the beverage you like
      *when you come back home to your pet after a long day at work/school
      *waking up and finding that a loved one has prepared you food
      *when it's raining and you make that splish-splash with your boots while walking
      *sitting alone in a cozy cafe litening to your favorite music and staring outside the window or doing something like drawing or writing
      *watching raindrops sliding down the window
      *that feeling of relieved victory after you've aced a test you studied so hard for
      *when your best friends/loved ones snuggle closer to you for a group photo
      *sleeping tonight and knowing that you're gonna wake up in the safety of your house and the warmth of your bed
      *when you and a stranger team up to help someone then you both smile at each other before going your seperate ways
      *when you leave school a little late than usual just so you can spend more time with friends
      *when the traffic is horrible but thats okay coz it means you've got more time to enjoy some more music
      *looking into the mirror after getting a new haricut/hairdye
      *finally getting that thing you wanted so badly
      *sleeping in on a day off

      This video along with all these points as well have really helped me with a personal problem today, and hopefully to pay forward I'll add a few comforting things.
      *Finally being done with something you've worked on all day and being able to sit back and admiring it.
      *A clean room
      *The feeling as a little kid stepping into a new house you've never been in before and looking at all your new surroundings
      *The smell of books
      *Finding the perfect new song
      *When you find something you didn't know you where looking for
      *The gentle sound of rain against your windows
      *The feeling of warm shower water dripping down your body
      *The moments after finishing blow drying your hair (Possibly just a me thing)

    *playing dress up in your parents clothing as a kid and pretending to be them

Often times when I start feeling anxious during school I go to the bathroom and watch this video, I can’t count how many times I have rewatched this. Than you PJ for helping me out and I really appreciate you. I know my problems are barely relevant when compared to others by the way and I pray for people who have the types of problems I am talking about. Have a great day everyone

    things i remembered about my dad from this video
    * the time he got a new dog, his name is Mack. when he got him, i was about 5. being the small child i was, and the big german shepherd scared me. i climbed on the old, grey couch as an attempt to get away from the big beast. my dad chuckled, saying its alright
    * the times i'd draw on the way back home from whereever we'd been on the previous day, the moon finally fallen. the flashes of light from the lightpole things helping occasionally
    * the time i pretended to sleep in the car when we got home, him picking me up from my pretend slumber, and me casually falling asleep as he would carry me back
