HUMAN KIND - No One’s Life Is 100% Happy All The Time. We Need To Stop Judging Others.
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 окт 2021
- Life is full of ups and downs, ebb and flow. Things happen that create sadness, grief, anger and fear. No one’s life is 100% happy all the time.
We need to stop judging others and realise that we have no idea what someone else is going through. If someone is being rude, give them the benefit of the doubt that they may be having a rough day. You may just have one of those yourself someday soon...
And if we make it okay to be open and honest when we are struggling, it allows each of us to have a deeper level of understanding. So let's all work on becoming more compassionate. Together, we can help each other and ourselves.
Filmed in Barrydale, South Africa.
Featuring Anton de Villiers.

I like this man, he has a good heart, even if he thinks he hasn’t. He openly admits to his flaws and tries to better himself, that’s how humankind should be, it’s the people who believe they are faultless that are the problem
Believe that there ARE faults is the problem😉everything was....is......and will be just experience......for growth. What is " wrong" with that??
To fight weakness makes it bigger......to embrace and fully accept myself WITH weakness is SELFLOVE. There is no other was around then ACCEPTANCE.
Me too, I see some parts of my character in him.
Thanks Gilly-Rose 💚 we agree - it is through acknowledging our flaws and mistakes that we can grow beautifully!
Michael and Justine
exactly
People who think they’re not part of the problem when it comes it comes to everything evil in this world are the biggest part of the problem
He’s tidy, disciplined, insightful, intelligent and honest. He’s been hurt. His love for his dog shows his compassion. Being happy and perky is no more real or important than being neutral and melancholic. I like him.
I agree, I like him too 💕
We love what you say about neutral and melancholic 💚 It takes all types to make the world a richer place to live!
Justine and Michael
Thank you so very much.
I would love to be this mans friend
me too...and yours too!
Some people go to church every week.
While others, no.
And me...
I watch your videos with growing admiration
Thank you.
Thanks so much Marvin 💚 we are happy that you follow us!
Michael and Justine
❣️
💚💚💚
People who go to church doesn't mean they are authentic. That's a fact☝️I'm a Christian 😁
Wow, such an honest human, hopefully one day the opportunity to have full belly laughs will return and stay with him🙏
We hope so too Shelly 💚
@@ReflectionsofLife I guess we have to find a way to lead the right people, animals or things in his direction. That can no doubt help to achieve our desire in bringing him laughter and real happiness🙏🙏. Thank you so much for what you already do, it is greatly appreciated. 🥰❤
💕
I like him because he is so human and honest that he does not pretend positivity and joy when he does not feel it, but he recognizes the goodness and hope
❤
Yes, he is beautifully honest, even though it may be hard for some people to hear 💚 Justine and Michael
I believe animals are a great judge of character, wonderful man, wonderful dog❤
We agree 💚 thanks for watching Sarah 💚
💕
This one brought tears to my eyes. He may not like himself but he is very likeable.
That's so true 💚
🌷
I saw this just a moment after I found that torrential rain had destroyed all my photos, writings and albums. I'm 74. There were a lot of cherished photos. I looked at my dog and thought: it's time to end all attachments and live just for today. Like she does. Thank you for this story. ♥
And thank you for your inspiring story Sun Seeker 😘
Thanks for sharing what happened to you - we are so sorry 💚 but yes, living in the moment is truly liberating 💚 Sending you much love, Michael and Justine

❤🙏🙏🙏
My heartfelt ♡ sorrow for your loss of your photos and writings.
May my words find you across the oceans ❤

“I’m cold...my feet are cold.” So was his heart. It took a creature, unwanted and outcast, to rekindle the flame of love in Anton de Villiers’ heart. This beautiful and touching story is sensitively told, and the message powerful; if we have compassion and open our heart to others, we too will experience love.
Yes indeed .
❣️
Well... saying his heart was cold is a bit much. I'll wager he has been hurt a lot in life. And at some point, we all shut down to the world to protect ourselves. But, he came through. That's all that matters.
So true and very well put.
Beautifully phrased!
He is a sincere and honest person who has a deep understanding of love and compassion. Picking up trash on the street, taking care of abandoned dog,,, He is shining his light toward the world although he thought he is not a beautiful person himself. Thank you for sharing. 🙏
🤗☘️
You have summed it up perfectly 💚 thank you !
Michael and Justine
I’ve watched a good number of Green Renaissance videos and each and every one of them has inspired me and warmed my heart. But this is the first video that brought tears to my eyes. This man is so open, honest and authentic. He is obviously loving and caring (notice how he picks up the litter on the street and of course, takes in a dog that nobody wants). I believe, despite his tendency to criticise which he talks about, I would like him very much indeed. The story of his dog just touches very deeply. And the bookstore looks lovely.
Thank you for sharing your experience Guinevere 💚 we are so pleased that the film touched you deeply 💚
Justine and Michael
❤️
Well said Guinevere - my sentiment exactly 😍
I ja bih ovako rekla.Hvala.
@@AliseL22 Thank you.
Very touching story. I find it interesting that he describes himself as a very critical person, always finding fault with others and he ends up adopting a toothless dog. I wonder what is keeping him from seeing his own beautiful soul.
you have said it so beautifully
@@parul209 thanks
recently realized via meditation to my critical voice grown worse with Social media. But it began with the lessons learned by watching, listening & existing under mum's cruel cold & narcisstic ways. It is only through yoga & meditation where I slow my breathe & looked within at why I behaved that way. laughter burst out of me amidst a meditation one day, realizing I held greater knowledge or awareness from my privileges & instead of finding a path towards reaching the dullards & haters to plant a seed for thought I was waacking them like a mole game. That was a break through I never trust that critical voice & no longer see it as a strength but a weakness that became patterned. Now I seek to pattern my peace of mind & grateful heart.
@@ledacedar6253 thank you for sharing your insight ❤️
❤🧡
This broke me and gave me so much hope at the same time. You’re so human and kudos for keep trying. There’s still good in humanity. Thank you saving Mojo, I guess she saved you too 💚💚 Don’t forget to laugh too xx
Yes, there is so much good all around us, we just need to really open our eyes and ears 💚
Justine and Michael
I would love to sit down with this man and share a cup of tea and just talk about life and hope and love
me too :-)
Me too
Me too.
I’m with you, that’s how I felt too. I watched at least 5 times if not more❤️👍
@@redgree1645 so did I ! Wish we could meet more humans like him in daily life! I guess it’s time for me to get back to SA
Being honest, that's one of the most difficult thing in our daily life. Gladly, this man find a way to be honest
Thanks Ona 💚 when one is honest then life is so much easier 💚
Michael and Justine
🌻
What a beautiful, gentle, kind hearted man. He has such a sweet soul even if sadly he can't see it. I hope he finds the happiness he deserves.
Thank you for your beautiful comment Greg 💚 Mojo definitely sees it :)
Justine and Michael
🌷🌷🌷
There is a story behind every human behavior. If we could see it, all would make sense. This beautiful dog saw your soul, your heart and instinctively knew your story. Thank you so very much for loving and understanding her and for giving her a real home.
Beautiful. You are so right. 🥰 Thank you Barbara for your inspiring words.
Thank you for your lovely, and loving, message Barbara💚
Very sad that this good man can’t see his own great worth. It is so easy to see our own faults and forget our virtues. Most of us have done that I believe. He has a kind heart to care for a dog otherwise rejected. And the book store looks very interesting!
Thanks for writing Deborah 💚 sadly, we can be our cruelest critics.
Michael and Justine
There is something different about your way of storytelling that makes me fall in love with the sound of trees, water, the moon, the beautiful humans, the words and much more.
Keep it coming,
Love u guys ❤️🙌
Thank you Hazel 💚 mission accomplished! So happy that you enjoy it 💚
Michael and Justine
Agree❤
And the idea of keeping on despite whatever trauma or disappointment to eventually find love is one dear to my heart. Thank you. Most beautifully told...
Yes 💚 never be afraid to love, and love again - always with an open heart 💚
Justine and Michael
Agreed.
Honestly, the fact that he realized that he isn´t happy with himself and tries to change something about that already makes him a better person. It´s normal to fail. You can´t expect from a human to be perfect. And the longer you live the more of the bad (but also the good) in people you see. So it´s easy to loose hope sometimes.
The real challenge is in picking yourself up after something doesn´t turn out how you wanted it to be and still finding the will to carry on.
Despite him seeming so unsatisfied with many things in his life he still anknowledges the kindness in many humans and strives to be more like them. That in itself is already accomplishment!
Thanks for your very meaningful and thought-provoking words 💚 Michael and Justine
Loved this one! A self-professed curmudgeon who desires to be lighthearted. The suffering of being human is a beautiful journey. 🤍
❤
Thanks for watching - so glad that you enjoyed it 💚
Oh my goodness, how honest 🥰 and so relatable. I think it's okay to need space and keep some distance. Constantly smiling is exhausting. Thank you for another beautiful video!
Thanks Amy - that is so true and a very important thing to remember 💚
Justine and Michael
🤗
Dogs are the ultimate companions to humans. After our dog Sugar passed away, my husband didn't want another. We loved her very much!
I wanted to become a dog walker as a way to satisfy my love of dogs. After my husband died 11 years ago, I did become a pet sitter. And I love it!
During the pandemic, I have steadily lost hope in the human race. I never thought I would see the USA stoop to an all time low. So I am trying, having lost faith. Each day I try to do something outside of my home.
Take care of yourself, and take care of the lovely Mojo❣ I wish you love 💕 and I wish you well!
Thank you for sharing some of your story Rebecca 💚 what lucky dogs to have you taking care of them!
It has been a tough time for you but it sounds like you are handling it well 💚 Take care of yourself - much love from all of us to you, too,
Michael and Justine
'I would avoid me completely if i were Me' ... yes, if you were yourself but the purest being in the world did not avoid you at all, your dog, because it sees your soul. This makes me cry because when we hate ourselves there is always an animal that don't hate us. Every human being needs love and some other important things like acceptance and understanding, which are difficult to find. I think every human who is grumpy has something that is missing. That's why we aren't happy.... Amazing video
Thank you so much 💚 You words are very meaningful 💚
I would like to be this man's friend. He has shown us he is well on his way to finding what he seeks.
🌷
Never lose faith in human beings.
Indeed 💚💚💚
💜💙
There is a lot of raw beauty in his story. The synical or unpleasant side doesn't scare me at all. Sometimes a heart has to express hurt through synical thoughts or words to find relief. It's human.
You are keeping goodness safe, and you nourish it. Then it grows and blossoms in different ways.
👍💕
Marjolien 💚 your words are very powerful, thank you!
Michael and Justine
Anton de Villiers just proved that humans can be good. He is good, he is human. My first thought, at the very beginning of this video, was that he, in particular, needed a dog. And then, there she was.
Dogs teach us so much about love and life 💚
So honest he is about being cynical. Really admirable. Glad he met Mojo & she he. What a sweet story! :)
Yes, Mojo doesn't care what he thinks about himself, for she sees his true heart 💚
Michael and Justine
Thank you once again for presenting the wisdom of two beautiful lives. A solitary benevolent man with no hope for humanity but inspired by a toothless dog that often pretends to be raging. There is no other significant surviving purpose for humankind and other creatures than love, which is the greatest hope on this earth.
Ooh we love what you say "love is the greatest hope on this earth" 💚 Thank you - Michael and Justine
🤗
I know how you can feel this way about humans 😣 there are times I dont like them at all ....but I wish I could sit with you and yr books and yr dog😍
That would be a lovely visit 💚
🌻
Ah, I can totally connect with him. I've been feeling like him for so long, pushing everyone away. Now am also on a journey to getting better, loving myself more and learning to appreciate others. He gives me so much hope and motivation. Truly grateful. I doff my hat to him. May God always be with him in his journey! Thank you immensely, GR, for the video. You guys are doing great. Keep going 👍. Looking forward to more of your videos. 🤗
You are so welcome Ugyen 💚 thank you for sharing a bit of your story - we wish you all the very best on your own journey 💚

I love this man. I love his honesty. If everyone could only be that honest with themselves. I know that I am not honest with myself all the time. I know that much of my life I have had a very low self-esteem and therefore put on a facade. I always laughed and was cheerful and wanted people so much to think that I was a happy happy person. When truly I was begging them to please listen to what I am not saying. I love you guys. Thank you for the very special videos that you percent. I do believe that the two of you are from the Angelic Realm.
Thank you 💚 your comment is very humbling 💚
Acknowledging our perceived weaknesses is when the greatest growth transpires - an so in lies our greatest strength 💚 Thank you for sharing a slice of your story - it means a lot to us,

There is so much humans can learn from animals. And dogs are the best. The love in Mojo's eyes says it all.
Yes Anita, you are so right - they teach us so much 💚

This House of Books is a beacon of hope and kindness, a marketplace for human stories that touch the soul, like yours dear Sir. I should like to call you Minister of Hope and Stories that Nourish the Soul. My hat goes off to you for seeing all the faults, but not taking them too seriously. For if you did, you would not be where you are, doing what you do.

Thank you Jane 💚
Imagine.. a world where hearts are open, not clenched in anger or fear, where kindness is our natural state of being. No!?
Like this gentleman found out, that can be your world when you choose to open your heart, and choose to keep it open... ❤️
Beautiful short film thank you, I’m set for the rest of what my day shall bring.. Heart Open X
Hello Bob 💚 thanks for your uplifting and meaningful comment 💚
Michael and Justine
🌻🌷🌻🌷🌻🌷
Your love is there ,your kindness is there in the compassion you have shown to your beautiful dog. Animals instinctly know who needs them and who will be kind to them...Belly laughs are there but you must allow the armour you have built up over the years to protect your self to come down. Allow your love for books and your dog to grow and expand out to the world and you will find you can allow love in 💗
Thank you for your encouraging words 💚
🌻🌻
So sweet. It’s obvious the dog was sent to you to show you her unconditional love. Ive learned from an animal communicator that our animals are here for OUR journey… to teach us unconditional love because that’s the vibration the carry, unconditional love.
BOOM!!!💣💥🌈❣
That's beautiful, how fortunate we are 💚
Michael and Justine
Unfortunately I grew up with two pretty unemotional parents who couldn’t show love, and often respect . My only son has probably struggled with as I’ve struggled to break that mould . As my mother aged before her death , I constantly fought my feelings of “:what goes around comes around “ … you can’t expect to get back , what you never put in !!! This emotional video was a reminder to that .. 🙏
Thanks for sharing a small slice of your story 💚 perhaps your son and you could watch this film (and others) and use them to spark those important conversations.
Much love, Justine and Michael
Let’s all be nice to everyone! 🤗 Thanks for the reminder! ❤️
Yes, definitely Jimycah 💚 It costs nothing!

So human. Another human resonates. Grateful for all the master teachers, felines and feathered friends alike. And of course their total acceptance and love!

I love this one from you guys especially, because life is not just brightness and happiness and good stuff all the time. I recover from a deep trauma right now, and one of the core healing moments was to make peace with suffering. That doesn't mean I don't try to get better, it just means that there is nothing _wrong_ with it or me, because sometimes things are just like that. I work as a manual therapist and often people come so tight and closed, eager to perform and get better, not giving in for a second. The relief when I tell them it is alright to complain or be down a bit is tangible. To hear such a confession in a form that is uplifting is unique, it opens up the space around all those feelings and makes me feel much lighter. Loved this, the guy, his dog. Thank you for being this open.
Thank you for sharing 💚 wow that is really beautiful - thank you for the amazing and important work that you do 💚
Justine and Michael
💙
The folks working to share these stories inspire me, over and over again. All I ask is how do you get people to be so honest in front of the camera? I see no fear or harm in all of these beautiful souls. I would much like to do the same, let people tell their stories for me to document. We have to inspire the next generation to continue the journey of life. Thank you for helping all of us to enjoy life. Not just busywork, enjoy the moment, for the sake of enjoying that bit of time. It is all we have in the end. With each day I find more peace because I look for it.
Thanks for watching Scott 💚 as with all relationships, if people feel respected, loved, safe, not judged, and accepted just the way they are, then they are inclined to be relaxed, open and honest.
Michael and Justine

Beautiful message to all of us. Be kind, it will be given back! Loneliness is not pleasant at times, I'm happy he found Mojo! They both can have happiness together! Hats off to him! He seems to have a beautiful but melancholy soul! TFS :)

God bless you, Anton. Keep fighting the good fight, my friend. One day at a time. And be kind and loving to yourself. We can't count on others to do that for us.
Thanks for the reminder Mr S 💚 we all need to treat ourselves with loving kindness 💚
Michael and Justine
When people repeatedly disappoint us, we become less apt to trust others. Also, some are just more introverted than others and there is nothing wrong with that. I hope this gentleman can learn to love himself because that is essential before we can love others.
Thank you Mary, yes - the most introverted amongst us have simply the best wisdom and stories to share 💚
Michael and Justine
We'll always come across some good and some bad people. The only thing we can do is to trust everyone, so that the good people always get the love and trust they deserve. Love yourself too! 💚
We love that Avinash, thanks for sharing your thoughts 💚
Justine and Michael
💕
The first lines he says in the video sound like a poem to me, I could feel a rhythm of his thoughts pouring out, made me think of how we create poetry with our lives, and we can speak with passion and authenticity.
Yes, they do 💚 That's beautiful Angela - creating poetry with our lives 💚
Justine and Michael
🧡
😌🙏🏽💚😭 Needed this. I feel like he's speaking to me directly, I see a mirror reflection of myself in this man. Thank you.
♥️ keep trying! There are decent people out there and you are so much more than you think you are!
You are welcome Missy 💚
When we are hard on ourselves, it makes us hard on others. Release the need to be perfect and allow love to bloom from your heart. Much love Missy 💕💕
isn't it a kind of loneliness feeling like you cannot accept many others and those you wanted to be friends not accepting you? this is me. I am not plesant, though I thought I am.
The dog in every way imaginable is/was his mirror. Someone said, “to become conscious of one’s behavior, is to shine a light that can assist us in change we need to make ...” we ever choose; in our endeavor for attention, do we use behavior that is positive or negative? Thanks again for another thought provoking glimpse into a person’s life that is secure enough to share openly and honestly.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts 💚 his honesty and openness is a lesson for us all 💚
Michael and Justine
Bless him and his pups heart. I understand his standpoint. It's very easy to fall into a curmudgeon mindset. It's much harder to stay in the light and be more positive in this ever-negative and destructive feeling world. Just have to fight the negative and try to contribute in a more positive way for the hopefully greater good. I'm so glad he and his pup found each other in this lifetime. Animals are a true blessing, I believe. 💗
Thank you Jennifer 💚 your understanding is the root of your compassion 💚
Michael and Justine
Thank you Anton for sharing some of your story. I am also a lover of books & so that really resonated with me. That pup needed you as much as you needed him. We all have the need to love & be loved & I for one absolutely love these videos you share. Thank you Michael & Justine for helping to soothe our weary souls. So needed & appreciated, now more than ever.
Blessings to all

Thank you Nutan - yes the world would be a better place 💚
I've had many dogs through the years and I've learned one big lesson from them: if they go to a person then you can bet your bottom dollar that that is a good person. But if they are reluctant to mix, stay away from that person! I think we know what kind of person you are, André - be kind to yourself!
Thanks Maria 💚 yes, Mojo definitely knew that she had found her forever person 💚 They deserve one another's love.

I’ve met people like this and I could be the same if I focused on all things that cause me pain. There’s been quite a lot. I believe words are powerful. They can create whatever they are. We all are creative. I do admire authenticity and transparency……you have a wonderful home, you’re very fortunate……. I wish you and mojo a beautiful life.
Thank you Mary Anne 💚 Words are very powerful and you share your thoughts beautifully, thank you for that 💚
When words fail, go with the feeling, but how does one communicate in words a feeling?
Mojo is your guardian angel as much as you are hers Anton.
She is Kerry 💚
Beautiful and honest, I cried from start to finish. Your channel touches me in so many ways, and helps me make sense of things. I have difficulty being with others, always believing that people don’t really like me and I force loneliness on myself as a way of coping but your channel helps me see life through others. Thank you

I bought "Jung and the Story of our Time" by Laurens van der Post, at his book shop, a few years back, during a visit to Warmwaterberg, with my two daughters. I read it, this year. One of the best books I've ever read. Led me to rereading his autobiography, "Yet Being Someone Other". Restored me to my love of reading. A house filled with books. Heaven!

Oh...dogs are indeed our best teachers.❤❤❤❤❤❤ What they're best at teaching is tenderness and unconditional love.👌
What a blessing it is to have one, one at least in one's life. See how much this lovely gentleman 🥰has learnt since a dog came into his life?

Animals can often turn out to be our best friends 💚And when we take care of them, they take care of us 💚 The dog is so nice and I love the PURRING CAT at 0:30 💕

Yes, the gift of loving a furry being is a precious one 💚
Michael and Justine
@@ReflectionsofLife Yes, it is. 💚💚 💚I just wish they could get much older. It's always so hard to lose a dear animal. I lost my two beloved cats this year.. (14 years old.) Kiri
Humans are losing faith on humanity and their own brotherhood. This is the biggest tragedy amidst all the progress we boast off. Yet there is real hope in this world.
His collection of books is very inspiring.

A beautiful and introspective film, delving deep into the human psyche with a senstive touch. This man truly has a beautiful soul that he closed his heart to but was able to open and blossom through the love of the dog he saved, who saved him as well. Human kind, be both. Your films move the heart and illuminate the soul. Thank you for the work you do. Namaste. 💚
Thank you for your very meaningful words 💚 Looking forward to seeing you on here again 💚

He's a good man and far along the path... need more people like him l.... Brother James 🙏🦉
Hi James 💚 thanks for watching!
❤💕
The man is so brave. Talking about what he thinks is his weakness. Just talking about it makes the first step to change. And to see and accept that a human can have all kinds of feelings, emotions, thoughts and powers on the inside is the step of realy geting ro know yourself. It takes a lifetime to know yourself and also to se that everyone is needed in this world. Thank you for sharing and for being so kind to the beautiful dog. It really worms my heart. The laughter is inside of you. I promise, just lett yourself of the hock for a while. Don't be so hard on yourself. You will see! Love to all❤
Thank you Emelie, for your beautiful words! Much love to you too 💚
Justine and Michael

Your sweet pup came to teach you a great lesson about love. It doesn't matter who we love, it just matters that we love. Never give up. There is still sweetness in the world.
