    Being attractive or having beauty is not a problem nor should it be, society makes it look that way. Society's standards should not be given credit when in most cases they are wrong. Women have value and purpose and are a creation of God. A woman can have beauty and values ​​at the same time, or not beauty and values ​​or vice versa, depending on the case. Everything depends on the education you obtain, self-esteem and correct training depend on it. What society says is what worries me the least, the important thing is to be well educated with good values ​​and put those values ​​at the service of others. , that's how you can be happy...This is my humble opinion...We should not complicate our lives by paying so much attention to the outside, but rather worry about what we are doing wrong and correct it...Greetings..!!!

    This feeling becomes really funny when you have one of your videos get an extraordinary amount of views. You sense you know what you have to do and that there is no going back. The more you realize you are in a position to help other people the more you feel an obligation to do so. But by letting go of the outcome and aligning myself with the process, giving myself all the time that I need, I've been feeling more excited then fearful ^^ But I do want to push myself more and become more consistent. I know there was a fear of failure at play that made it more comfortable to upload less. Trying to make everything more "perfect". I want to let go of that.

      Super interesting to hear your perspective on this! I love what you say about feeling a greater responsibility to be of service after getting the feedback that what you’re offering has value. Makes total sense. Consistency can be so tricky because on the one hand you want to keep showing up, but you also want to give yourself the time to deal with all the emotional resistance that may come up as a response to you putting yourself out there, which is very real. I think you wanting to let go of the pressures of perfectionism is a good goal! Looking forward to seeing more of your videos :)

    I relate to a lot of what you say and to your reflectiveness, so I hate to break it to you: you are not 'right' where 150,000 years of human evolution/civilization are 'wrong.' We are never -- *never* -- going to 'reform' humanity out of its valuation of female beauty/youth. The more we vainly attempt to do this, the worse the situation becomes (just look around at the culture). In the end, things will go on as they have done for eons. Men will be men, women will be women, the strong will be strong, the weak will be weak, and so on. You cannot level evolutionary encoded hierarchies to create a utopia. You shouldn't waste any more time contemplating any of this changing. More importantly, it's nihilistic to believe it *should* change. Just accept the perennial, ineffaceable realities of human existence and enjoy this your only life, in this your only form. Ideally, you should have children before long. This is the actual alarm being raised by your internal 'biological clock' : your fertility is running out. If you think being 27 with fading looks is depressing, wait till your are 57 and staring down the reality of dying alone.

    • @existentialgroove
      @existentialgroove 23 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Hi :) Thanks for sharing your perspective! I have no interest in reforming humanity out of valuing youth and beauty. As you say, evolutionarily speaking it’s essential that we do. I’m merely suggesting that we *also* start valuing what elder women have to offer: emotional intelligence, social intelligence, wisdom etc. After all, if the point of woman’s life is simply to be young & beautiful enough to bear children, what is the evolutionary purpose of having women exist for decades beyond menopause? My view is that human beings depend on this later stage of a woman’s life to receive the wisdom she hopefully has accumulated over her lifetime, without which we would all keep going in circles, collectively speaking. If we teach young girls that all they’re good for is being beautiful and young, they won’t have the incentive to nurture these deeper, internal qualities within themselves, and much of their lives will be spent either feeling used or discarded. Though I agree that there are biological and evolutionary aspects to human existence that are pointless to contest, I do believe it’s worth questioning the socio-economic systems we live in and how they may influence what we value in each other. Right now we live in a capitalistic culture that only values what makes money, which excludes many feminine contributions such as motherhood and emotional wisdom. I think we are very much capable of learning to value these things more highly without pretending to be above our love of youth & beauty. The two can co-exist! Of course this is just my personal perspective. Thank you for your comment, and for prompting all these thoughts in me, I really appreciate you taking the time :)

    • @EmilyAdams-q1h

      ​@@existentialgroove You are sensible enough to see the bigger picture. I'm just concerned that young women are being indoctrinated into the belief that all traditional forms of understanding are evil and that the only way to 'liberate' oneself is to renounce human nature and reality, find a make-work 'career' in the neoliberal/capitalist order, pretend to be 21 into one's 50s, and try to live as a 'liberated' ersatz man, only to end up very unhappy, alone, and likely heavily medicated by middle age. You are right to question this arrangement. Traditionalism *did* value elder women's experiences and wisdom. Tradition dictated that the elderly be honored. Now? Canada and other Western countries are implementing 'voluntary' euthanasia programs to remove unwanted surplus elderly from the books (including a generation of childless women). People have been cheated. This is not 'progress.' It's dystopian. There is superior wisdom and beauty in the abiding virtues of family, children, community, sexual division of labor, embracing one's nature, et cetera. Anyway, I love your videos and relate to your ruminative cast of mind. Thank you for making them!

    I'm a musician too. Everyone loves music, but for true 'music people,' it's different. Usually we are bitten by the 'music bug' in childhood, after an initial deeply visceral response, goosebumps, shivers, etc, and then it kind of takes over our lives. In a way, i regret going so deeply down the music rabbit hole because I feel that it legit stunted my intellectual development. Spending 10 hours a day, during my formative years, in the abstracted, space-brained trance state that one enters into while obsessively creating/contemplating music left me with certain deficits, I feel. I think a 'music diet' is not an uncommon thing for some of us. You just have to switch mental gears at some point.

    I don't agree with the remarks you made about your appearance. You have killer large eyes that millions of women would love to have. There is nothing wrong with you nose. You have good straight teeth, and your facial features are well spaced out across your face. Perhaps looking at photos of yourself might give you a more realistic evaluation of your good features, rather than just looking at your appearance in the mirror ( it worked wonders for me). If you're still not happy, perhaps a mini make-over from a cosmetic artist in a store might do the trick. Perhaps just a simple new shade of lipstick might unlock your good looks to yourself. I know you can do it!

I certainly use my imagination as a source of creativity and inspiration and I’m so grateful to have that inner place to go to. My main argument in this video was simply to suggest that when we take it too far and start escaping into our imagination as a way of avoiding certain feelings, perhaps that’s where our imagination can limit us from healing certain aspects of ourselves, or building something tangible for ourselves in the real world. At least that has been a pattern I’ve noticed in myself. Thanks again for the share, I appreciate it!

    Bulk of self-help culture is about spreading Social Darwinism, which is a Nazi ideology. The point of blaming people for problems in their life is to push people away from compassion, solidarity and towards ruthless competition for survival. Social Darwinists want people to have delusions about unlimited possibilities to make getting rid of not fit for work or unneeded people easier. This way people can pretend they are "good" and people who are trapped in poverty or outright condemned to starve or be homeless are "bad". Like there's a long history of hatred towards disabled people - disabled people were the first victims of Nazi mass murder campaigns - read up about Aktion T4, and Nazi concept of "useless eaters" and "life unworthy of life".

Below are few points I learnt in the last 2 years, 1) Some days are good and some days are bad. 2) love, compassion, patience, discipline and contentment are important for a peaceful and fulfilled life 3) Give if you can 4) Stay away from people who don't want to help you or drain your energy 5) All are pure Miraculous souls including you. We are connected by love and we communicate through emotions and thoughts between each other and God. 6) Today might be a last day 7) All are temporary. no one belongs to no one. 8) we all came here to help each other to grow spiritually, because we all are spirits in a human body. 9) Karma is real

    This is exactly what I've been doing for many years, using music as a coping device from reality. Most people love their music, but I would use it to get away from everything that I couldn't or wouldn't want to deal with. This, I have found out to be an incomplete, delusional way of thinking. I still Love music, but now it's in a different light. I have mostly stopped listening to it to try and change my own mind & way of thinking. So far it's been difficult, but well worth it, in order to transform myself to become who I truly am. Not falling back on my music dependency to cope with reality has helped me be more focused on my goals. I don't want to just "settle" for average anymore. I want, and to encourage other's too, that there's more to life than just allowing yourself to be average & complacent with your own situation. Step out of the norm / comfort zone, and see what you're truly made of, in order to live a full, fulfilling life. I don't understand how this lovely lady could consider herself unattractive in any way. She naturally looks great, and has a wonderful, beautiful soul. Many men would love to have a special woman like this. Stay true to your dreams, and never give up, towards achieving them.👍👏

    Existential questions can induce loneliness and emptiness if you tend to be reflective and introspective.Such people can have a very difficult time battling these emotions,and yet these are not often valued in society and are brushed aside.Not everyone wishes to be part of the rat race and sacrifice their deep seated values in the process.Pondering about life and the feelings which arise out of them,especially disillusionment is very natural in my opinion.

    I've gotten pissed at myself for slacking off with video games or whatever else before, heavy day dreamer my whole life too, including with music. A few times throughout my late 20's / early 30's I made dramatic changes, using anger as the fuel. It worked, lost like 70lbs, got stronger, bought a house, started a band, put a few songs out I guess. None of it was sustainable. I now know that I'm going to be probably worth somewhere in the 9 figure range in my lifetime, and the only thing I can chalk it up to at a high level is finding Jesus. I guess if religious language makes you squeamish you can replace it with something else, but if I had to approach it from a secular psychological lens I would say this; everything that matters is people; relationship. If your "relationship" is to some intangible thing like the universe or "staring at the wall clearing your mind meditation", that's not real relationship. It may be practically useful, for becoming un-overwhelmed at moments. If your relationship is to yourself ("self-love"), that is literally also, not relationship, by definition. I'm not even sure that is love, I think there's a reason we have the term narcissism. So, having a creator that you feel MORALLY accountable to, internally, who you can talk to, ask things of, watch things happen as a result, and whose motives you can be curious about (and come to realizations about over time), this is many times more engaging than any of the new age solutions I've ever seen. So even if it were false, you should do it. It's not, but even if it were, I would pretend it wasn't, because I refuse to live in a world of subjective meaning and subjective morality. Fuck that.
