I found this video, well, literally from searching you up because I watched Flowstate's video, but I also found it quite relatable. I just had a couple of friends spend the night a couple days back, one I hadn't seen in two years, but in general, we haven't hardly had the chance to hang out due to entering adulthood and experiencing its affects... Anyhow, I dropped one of them off at their house, and as I was driving home, nostalgia just filled my head as I thought about how we used to always hang out. At the time, a few years back, I lived at dad's house, and so my friend and I would walk to each other's house, which was like a 5 to 10 minute walk I wanna say, and just, it was a great time. I thought of everything great that happened, hanging out with friends, riding the bus home from school every now and then, being in track despite not being particularly fit for it, driving the fourwheeler around the neighborhood, binging SpongeBob or some other show, etc. It wouldn't ever be the same, and it made me tear up. I'm not one to cry, but I could feel my eyes water. I miss those days and I miss being able to focus on the moment, especially since the future can be quite terrifying. Or at least for me. I'm terrified of the future. I'm excited, yeah, and there are a lot of things I look forward to, but just the reality of not being able to see down that tunnel is daunting, if that makes sense. Like, I see the light at the end, but it's a tunnel. It's pitch black, and I'm kind of going in blind. Anyways, yeah though, I found your video relatable, and I'll for sure have to check out your other videos and all that. That's about all I could probably say for the time being. Afterall this was a little lengthy to say the least. Sooo, sorry about the longer comment, but also thanks for reading it if you did. I hope you have a good day/night and may you continue to inspire yourself and many people and all that fun stuff. Peace✌️
Trust me, I get exactly what you mean. I made a video called time is fleeting where I kind of talk about that. The trick is simply being mindful of your experiences. I have been in the good old days since I was like 9. They are different days, but if you try to create meaningful experiences it does not matter where you are in life, you will look back fondly.
this vid couldn't have appeared in my feed at a better time, damn. i just need to vent for a bit. it just comes ar you so fucking fast. one moment i was finally starting to enjoy life in the uk, the other i have to leave the country and figure out how to not end up in the war in 2 years i still haven't figured everything out. im 17, desperately trying to find a job in a new country that also has lengthy conscription, trying to learn a completely new language to get some kind of uni education to not work delivery all my life. i had to leave the few friends i managed to make in my last years there, my family, everything that i had it gets tough sometimes, really fucking tough. and this realization of "not being a child anymore" and not being able to just be happy doesn't help. but we gotta move on somehow, yk. best of luck to you brother, sorry for this random paragraph on your vid. thank you.
It's okay, I love getting comments like this. I moved away from the UK back in around 2012, and I know what it's like to start completely fresh with nothing. All I can say is take one more step each day. You don't need to tell me you can take two steps, just one more. Keep doing that and I promise you life will get better. You've got this and if you ever need anything the community here is pretty good with conversations like this :)
Its really hard to realise that you are not a kid anymore. This video is so relatible to me, because i am on my first year in university in a foreign country. When i was younger i always wondered how to be an adult, it seemed impossibly hard to always know what to do, to make decisions on your own. And here I am, a 18 year old, and yet I still have no idea...
Thank you for this video, genuinely thank you, im sure it helped all the people watching put into words what they felt but didn't quite know how to describe it. Keep up the good work!
oh wow i've definitely been felling this lately. i turned 18 a few months ago and i feel almost the same as i did a year ago. i still enjoy the same stuff and i still make the same mistakes and it feels like the expectation of being an adult is an impossible pair of shoes to fill.
If you're here from flowstate, welcome and I hope you enjoy!
Or if you're an OG nostalgist fan y'all know I love you

I needed that. Thanks.
Nostalgia, and melancholy kinda scare me, I don't want to feel like the good times are over, even if i am in those good times right now.
