Shimon, I found your videos a couple of days ago, and you are an inspiration, young man. I am a 46 yr white dude from Newfoundland and way up north in Canada. I just want to share with you that beautiful videos speak across cultures and borders, my man! You have wisdom and maturity that is soooooo far beyond your years that it's stunning. You have a very bright future in leadership, whether it's spiritual or political or both. You are an extremely bright light in a dark world. Please let your light shine brightly. I will be posting and supporting your work from here on out. God bless you Shimon you are a brilliant young man!
I'm 17, and i recently got broken up with. she was my longest relationship ive ever had. she was the first person to give me attention and love me. now that shes gone, im realizing ive never learned how to be by myself and be alone with my thoughts, and its incredibly hard to deal with that while trying to focus on myself. I dont have any friends outside of the ones at school and we dont have a friendship that would allow me to open up to them. these videos have really helped me, because it quiets my brain and makes me feel like i have a friend thats talking to me and cares about me. Im beginning to realize that im not an introvert like I previous thought, and i think i need human connection to deal with this. im going to try to start making new friends and hopefully i can find a girl that i can connect with and show affection to. it gives me a purpose. thanks for reading.
Hey bro, idk if your gonna see this but I can sorta relate with you on the friend side of things. I'm 17 too, and I always thought I was an introvert as well. That's just because I have never had friends, and up until recently I realized I'm quite the opposite, and I like being around other people. I just wanna say that you should try to find friends who actually CARE about you before you pursue a relationship tho. Hope you and I can both find friends in the future, peace bro✌
Been in your position back in 2021 at the same exact age, and even though my birthday was a month away and eventually turned 18 the feeling was still in my head rent free for almost a year until I found someone else. Sooner or later you'll be in a better position, keep working on yourself and eventually the right one will appear in your life one day but always focus on the present moment. That's the main key, the stuff you hope for now always comes to your life when you least expect it. Take care
I'm 30 years older than you, and your words make me wish I came to the same realizations as you when I was your age. I'm only recently learning these things. Your positivity inspires me. Thank you.
Both of my grandparents passed away in 2021 and 2022 and i had a three year set back of a lot of things that i need to work on and im doing a lot better for myself to be productive in the world but im still healing and im still trying to find my own way and know the truth of who i want to be in this life. I wish everyone try their best to do the same thing and i know things get hard, just get back up and hit back harder than ever i love you all and thank you ❤❤❤
Doing a reset on my life was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I simplified everything diet, routine, and mindset. I picked it all up from the book called Unveiling Your Hidden Potential
Your videos are better than therapy. A few weeks ago I discovered your channel and your videos and I have to tell you that it really helps me to improve my life. I have finally stopped watching pornography and avoiding social media. I am always happy when I see something new from you because I know, I can take and learn a lot from it. I listen to you especially when I am alone at night and can relax. It becomes a ritual. Thanks for your words, your work on TH-cam and the added value of your content.
Therapists enjoy this too, don't worry :') being able to be vulnerable and cry together with someone on the other side of the world... this is what the internet should have been about. And what it could be about. Much love! 💝
The part where you point out that we don't demand "respect" from people and they don't have to be nice and grovel at my feet hits home. This was why I sometimes get easily irritated by my close friends. I really couldn't put it into words. Then you said it. I guess it's just "don't be rude to me".
Absolute facts brother. We have to understand that life is full with challenges. It's like what they said. When life gives you lemons you make lemonade.
Being lonely is something i've tried to fight for a while now, it's hard but i feel like i shouldn't fight it because it hurts to even worry about it. Good talk man
Me too bro, the opening minute sounds like something I would say. It's tough, it's hard, we all wanna connect with someone who wants to connect with us, to feel loved and heard and wanted. I'm on my journey to accomplish that. There's things I've had to overcome. Things I've had to do and get straight. Plenty more things in the future I'll need to put right before I can make that happen. All I can say is, stop thinking about it and start making little adjustments and steps towards that goal, one day at a time. Doesn't matter what it is either - hit up the gym if you think it'll help, or be more consistent. Read a book on how to become more thought-provoking, or funny, or knowledgeable. Buy some damn beauty products and get a skin care routine if that's what you wanna do. Face your fear and do that thing you've put off for years and years. Just don't keep thinking about doing things. You gotta do. Being paralyzed by fear or feelings of inadequacy is exactly how you get defeated. It hurts me to worry about it too, I just know I can't be still any longer. I hope you find that frame of mind. I hope we all do and realize our potential, get out and experience the things in life that make it worth living.
I was honestly tearing up with you because both of my grandparents are gone. They helped raise me and my siblings, were always the nicest(even if grandma was a very emotional person) and i loved taking walks with my grandpa but now its hard to accept that I'll never see them again. They're house already has different people living in it so i cant even visit the old house. Sometimes i still talk to them tho...just vent at the ashes. I miss them but after alot of time and thinking I know that it was going to happen and that although I didnt value them as much as when they were alive, I value them almost more than myself now.
Hugs, brother. ❤ I completely get you. Right now, I'm at the hospital with my mom. She had to be admitted for critically low iron/anemia which almost took her out. Stuff like this reminds me as she's close to 60 with multiple ailments that we don't have too long with our folks. I just pray for strength and emotional stoicism for when the time comes, you know?
Crying while watching this. I feel this more than you know. As i strive to love my 87 year old grandma, i realized im opening the whole in my heart up more & more for when she leaves ❤. Lifting you up my brother. You’re so on time with this one
I am so thankful for the lack of cuts in the video, it makes everything so much more calming to watch. TH-cam videos are so erratic these days, this was very comforting to stumble across. I never thought anyone was as regularly panicked and distraught by the mortality of people as much as I was. Not being able to stay fighting with someone overnight because what if they didn't wake up the next morning? This video made that lonely feeling disappear for a little while. so thank you for sharing ♡
Wow bro,…. So fluid with no edit cuts at all. Seeing you be so vulnerable makes me feel not so bad about me crying in my last video….I appreciate you being so transparent with us all
You really impress me with your honest vision and detailed description of the diffuculties we experience in life. I feel your pain, I feel your vulnerability and your old spirit. It is pretty mature. I wish you the best from the bottom of my heart.
Man, we all face struggles. It's beautiful to see how we deal with it. It's beautiful to watch as we grow and become stronger. Life is unfair, but we don't have to think any which way about how we're supposed to respond to it. Best thing to remember is that you have it now. Everything is valid. Your grandparents sound incredible. The older you get, the more comfortable with things you get. You're worthy of love and you don't have to prove it. Cheers.
I was just watching “your life matters more than you think” and here you are. I'll keep listening, absorbing the best that I can, everything I'll do is going to be by listening, hearing and absorbing. thanks, dude. god bless you.
Hope you're doing well bro. And same goes for me and everyone else, because we're all family, and we gotta understand that, and be there for eachother.. I love you all. Stay positive, and shoot your shots people. Just don't overshoot lol.
Your wisdom and knowledge for your age is absolutely extraordinary, watching you is like a breath of fresh air that i really needed 😊🙏💕 plz keep sharing your wisdom and guidance hun, it is helping many lives out there!
I really needed this conversation. It resonated deeply with me. I’m in the same situation with my own grandparents and I thought feeling this hurt about it wasn’t normal. It hurts deeply. Thank you Shimon.
"I may not give them the energy that they give me". Man. That hit deeper than I expected. Sometimes I can't summon the resilience to keep my mask up and share laughs and create new memories with my mum who is ill, deep down there's an unwavering guilt of not being the best son I could be after everything she's done for me. I appreciate the authenticity man. You're inspiring.
There is no words I can use to describe how moving is everything you shared in this video. Thank you so much Simon. I can feel my heart beat. The warmth of it. The concrete crushing. Thank you Simon, thank you!
The last couple of days I've been feeling unwell. My heart racing, having the sensation not being able to breathe and kinda restless. Glad I found your video. You reminded me to take a deep breath and being aware of my emotions and letting them happen. Thank you.
Thank You For Being Vulnerable Like This With Us Today 🤍 You Are A Great Grandson And Wonderful Person With A Beautiful Spirit. I’m Sure They’ll Want The Best For You Shimon, You Can Be Miles Away But The Love You Have For Them And Vice Versa Will Never Die. When That Time Comes For Them, You Keep Those Memories You Have Of Them Alive The Best You Can. It’s Not Gonna Be Easy Especially Because It Looks Like They Played A Big Part In Your Life And Is A Big Part Of Who You Are As A Person. They Did So Good, Your Doing So Good. It’ll Never Hurt Less To Think Of Them Not Being Here In The World Anymore .. But As Time Goes By I Hope It’ll Start To Feel Okay.
It's kind of like you said we all are not that different after all. It's crazy about 70% of the things that you feel and went through are related to what I went through I just wish people would relate more and stop hating on each other
i started watching your videos when i started working my job to have “background noise” to help past the time and the more i listened to you speak, the more observant and thoughtful i became. You’re really helping me become a better person and be able to move on from things like my last relationship that ended right before i found you. finding your videos was truly a blessing to me. i tried to put my friends on to your videos but they just looked at my awkwardly and asked if i was ok. there’s nthn wrong with wanting to better your life is what i wanted to say but i just laughed it off. i hope one day they do start watching you bc you’re truly and inspiration.
I remember this feeling too. I was in my mid 20s. I remember. The hit of reality is different. And then same when I hit 30 again for different people for different reasons. I see this and I hear you. Been here too, it’s good you are just being honest about it and getting it all out there. Yes. We are all hurting. And trying once we realize.
Im 16 minutes into the video, and all i gotta say is dont beat yourself down over these things. I know that i dont know the emotional connection over a screen but i tend to go through that same feeling of not being enough or wanting to be better. The best thing to do is not worry about it because manifestation is real. Just stay being positive stay showing love. Those miscommunications that you mentioned through the video are like you said "apart of human nature". Stay being positive life has downs and ups but you are the one who will decide how long they stay. Love 💙
18:57 its like you know they wont be there forever. And the day they will be gone you will recall the memories you made and the pain hits. Thats why you need to cherish the time you have left with them. Shimon i would love to help you with that pain but i dont know if i can (im 16yo). You helped me with my problems and you dont even know it. I hurts to see you or other people in pain. Love yall
man I cried a lot watching this video. I have guilt too over how I treated my grandparents when I was a teen because I was isolating myself from my family. thank you!
Your grandparents are some precious beings of light and love you ate so blessed to have them. Please give them a deep hug when you see them/or the equivalent! ❤🥰🔥#protection and guidance!
I know exactly what you are talking about. Ive seen with my own eyes how people I care about are affected with life when I am near, and when I am far. It was hard, really hard to see it and to acknoledge it. In some extremely weird and profound way I started grieving my parents years ago. Its a long process. Now... I am simply grateful that they are alive and well. Grateful for the time given. Because its a gift
Excuse me, can I cry here?...thank you.😭 Shimon, you don't know how much you help us all with these words of wisdom. Keep up your hard work and always be proud of who you are, brother.❤️
Wow man, you sir have brought me literally to tears with your family story. I empathized to your blessings making me look onto my life and memorize some good moments with my family, but i've always felt distant, like not belonging from a very young age. But it got me to tears, in years of not being able to, you made me feel safe and i empathized through this beatiful episode. Thanks man.
You can always have that solitude in your back pocket, but fight to find the right people and learn to deal with the loneliness the best you can. For me I either have went into my solitude comfort zone and did my own thing 90-95% of the time and felt almost no loneliness. Or I go out take chances and want more out of life and deal with crazy loneliness.
i cried along watching this vide dude and, i wanna say the strength you have in willing to share this vulnerability with the world is really powerful. i relate to feeling like you're not the greatest grandson. i wasn't always the greatest at staying in contact with family nor friends, but i try to. sometimes i'm too caught up in my own world that i forget that there are people on this planet who care for me, and have my best interests in their hearts. even though i don't reach out often i do care alot for them too. thank you for sharing this video, although i remember you saying once that you make these videos for yourself but end up sharing them, so i appreciate that. thank you.
I’ve been struggling recently and past couple of days I fell back into old toxic patterns I’m not proud of, today I found your videos and I’ve spend a few hours watching them and they been super helpful and comforting, the tightness in my chest has eased today Glad I found your channel
I used to disregard/hate these kinds of videos, but here I am wishing i had heard this a long, long time ago. I've experienced the same thoughts you've mentioned here like mortality, family, home, guilt, etc but I've drowned those thoughts out with distractions. I feel like I've been destroying myself for so long by doing that but I've come to realize that the shit I needed THE MOST was right there in front of me. My family, my friends, MY LIFE. I feel so much shame about it but I'm hopeful. Life is so precious and we are so lucky to just exist and experience life. I also wanna say that facing reality, as painful and stressful as it is, is way better than smothering it. Even if you feel like things are becoming unbearable, NEVER feel ashamed to talking to your loved ones for guidance and support. My father passed away at the peak of covid. He's always told me "NO. MAN. IS AN ISLAND." I always listened to it and understood it but only now has it started to really resonate with me. One last thing, isolation and comfort is a drug that no one can detect BUT YOU. So please, please, please keep that shit in check. Peace.
Every time bro cries i start crying , i thought im the only one who feels this way, all i wanna say is god bless bro for being so real , he heals himself trough out healing us what a legend ❤️
i have never heard anyone talk that literally says how i feel, i came across one of your videos today and i thought you were a really smart person in this generation so i thought i would watch more until i came across this video of yours.. i really want to thank you.. this is the first time i comment on someone's video. Keep up the good work ❤️
Thank you Shimon...you've helped me so much for a while now. It took me awhile to finally start talking my first steps, but thank so much for your wisdom and realness.
I miss my grandma everyday day. Only person who defended me. Only person to make me feel like I'm important. The rest of my "family" couldn't care less about me. It's been really lonely lately. But if your grandma is still alive cherish her ❤
"It's incredible that you're creating these videos to help others in need. I'm dealing with some depression myself-not too severe, but I often feel sad, and I haven't seen many other channels making content like yours. Shimon Davis, this is the time when people really need videos like yours. Every year, it seems to get worse, and millions are struggling with sadness and depression. Your work can truly make a difference for many people now and in the future. I also find it hard to talk to others without feeling scared. It feels like our world is becoming more challenging, and more people are experiencing depression. 😭" THANK YOU KEEP IT UP MY DUDE 💌
I feel guilty too because my childhood i was close to my grandpa and grandma as we get older we separate because we focusing on our own lives work and everything i constantly feel guilty because they are both sick and at times i can see them i choose not to because of my really bad anxiety and i end up hating myself knowing what if something happens to them and they die because i was scared to talk to them or just spend time with them 😢 and all i can think about is the good times we had or when they were healthy younger happy stories they share the places we went to hurts bad. I feel like I'm the only person in my family that's so in touch with my emotions i literally feel everything so much bro even for bugs the birds, strangers, i am always taking pictures of my mom and dad too i can eat with them and just stare at em while trying not to cry with a smile. I feel this bro on a deep level.
This video was so raw. Ive been wanting to go back home to see my grandparents and sisters so bad but watching this made me realize how much I truly miss them
I haven't watched but this vid came at a crazy time man. Just yesterday me an a friend we were talking about one of our other friends and how we felt about something he went through but how we both thought he never had went through that before like us. But as we were talking and comparing our stories I realized how much I got messed up from it by seeing his reaction to it and same for him. So many of us go through so much that we hide perfectly or you'd never guess. It's insane to think about
I love this vid bro. ❤️ I’m learning there’s nothing to ever lie about or ever any reason to pretend. Life is real. Death is real. Life too short to pretend we aren’t hurting, or hurting those around us. Just use the time we got to heal and love to our greatest capacity. 💕
I love your videos, Shimon! It's so great to see someone speak so openly and honestly about various things. I've recently realised that being honest is the most important thing you can do in this life. It helps you experience positive outcomes in different situations, making you a better person. Keep going bro!
This is absolutely beautiful. Made me think of my grandfather and how close we were. I had the opportunity to travel the world and live in several places. When I moved to Germany my grandfather and I would write each other. He wasn't able to visit me due to his health but he lived through me. He loved me sharing my experiences and pictures of where I'd been. He was my best friend and I miss him so much. He transitioned 7 years ago. ❤
Thank you for sharing your story. I am very inspired by your videos and have been reflecting on a lot of the same topics you've mentioned on your channel. I hope you know even when your grandparents' time comes, they will ALWAYS be alive in you. Like you said, energy can never be destroyed, and you ARE a good grandson. I am sure they appreciate everything you do for them. I think the only thing you can do is focus on the present, spend as much time as you can with them and cherish every second of it. Their love and strength will live on through you forever, and I think that is kind of comforting to think about. It's normal to feel guilt, but you sound like you are truly doing as much as you can to be there for them which is all you can really do at the end of the day :/
Thank you for sharing yourself, your thoughts, your lessons, and your emotions with all of us. Thank you for creating this community of people to help understand/acknowledge shadow parts of ourselves and connecting with others going through the same things. Thank you for being here and being yourself. I hope you can continue to do things that make you happy and proud. Thank you for the vulnerability and transparency. Sharing life experiences, opinions, and views of the world that I agree and/or disagree with, or allows me to see things in a new light. Thank you, because I know you don’t have to be here- and I know all of us aren’t entitled to even this little bit of access to you.
The way I hear you and the way I feel so heard. I relate to you exactly how you expressed it. My grandparents were the only ones who made me feel seen and understood. Keep it up man you’ve got a community right here for you
Please, keep doing these videos, be vulnurable and open, without cuts, just like this. And again, thank you, thank you so much. Especially for this video, becaue it speaks volumes to me. So real and honest
Love you man, you bring a lot of energy and authenticity into these moments. Keep speaking your voice and let your heart be heard, you don’t know how much of your light you’ve given to help others along. You’re sincere and honest, never lose sight of that, you have a big heart!
33:30 intricate balance, but you've got this 🫶🏽 i love this bond with your family. Thank you for sharing your story. Its definitely rare.. so grateful for my big, tight-knit, loving family tree.
I love how you framed this, happy loneliness as a very real phenomena. Being fine with being lonely and self but not as a result of choosing to always be alone. Loneliness as a circumstance from prior trauma that pushes a person to comfortability in that state. I relate my brother, I too am 21 and I would be deceitful in saying that I didn't wish for more friends who share an age group with me--like you said in a prior video it is human nature to want to be seen and to be heard. Even so, at this point in my life, I wrestle with putting myself back out there because are we truly greater than our struggles and if not where lies the worth in pouring the negative connotations into someone else.
Your videos keep relating to me when you release them. It's almost telling me that the universe is listening. You have helped me so much with your content and I want to say thank you man.
Ur such a rare soul. Trust me when they do pass u will be able to feel them around u all the time.❤ i’m 22 and lost my grandma a couple years ago who i would describe as my soulmate. And my granddad April of this year❤️. Eventually the thought of them will make u smile and give u strength. I used to cry on my grandma’s lap about her dying while she was still alive😂. Trust me even though they will be gone physical,energetically u will feel them..I promise🤍
I'm French I discovered your videos this morning, and I can't stop watching them thank you for making me discover this 🙏🏽you also help me improve my English , i love you bro
Ive watched 2 videos from you and you became the most relatable youtube I have ever watched. Your videos honestly help me also knowing that I'm not the only one who feels like this. Its nice to know when there is someone like you in this world. Praying for you man.
I completely understand! I’d rather explain than try to convince or convert someone’s already made up belief. But I absolutely loved loved loved this video!
Man I can tell how amazing your grandparents are just by the emotion they evoke out of you. May God bless them and keep them healthy and happy for a very long time and may they see your constant success and elevation in life physically and one day in the spiritual form 🙏🏾 blessings my brother
Shimon, I found your videos a couple of days ago, and you are an inspiration, young man. I am a 46 yr white dude from Newfoundland and way up north in Canada.

me and you are going through the exact same thing, I’m also 17 so just know you are not alone
I'm 30 years older than you, and your words make me wish I came to the same realizations as you when I was your age. I'm only recently learning these things. Your positivity inspires me. Thank you.
My Mom died when I was 24, I did not have the emotional intelligence you have. It was an 8 year set back, keep being strong like you are now.
love bro
Both of my grandparents passed away in 2021 and 2022 and i had a three year set back of a lot of things that i need to work on and im doing a lot better for myself to be productive in the world but im still healing and im still trying to find my own way and know the truth of who i want to be in this life. I wish everyone try their best to do the same thing and i know things get hard, just get back up and hit back harder than ever i love you all and thank you ❤❤❤
Doing a reset on my life was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I simplified everything diet, routine, and mindset. I picked it all up from the book called Unveiling Your Hidden Potential
who is the author?
@@sthu_Izzy this is a bot that advertises the book, it's all over self help videos and kinda scummy
Your videos are better than therapy. A few weeks ago I discovered your channel and your videos and I have to tell you that it really helps me to improve my life.

I dont really watch these videos but theres something about this guy, he just speaks to you. 1 on 1. its nice
feels like i’m talking to a friend or something. someone i can related to, someone who gets me on a deeper level
I've never met your grandparents and now I love them too. Love is immortal Shimon.
I love how real you are with us. All these channels out there but yours is so raw and real- so rare.
The part where you point out that we don't demand "respect" from people and they don't have to be nice and grovel at my feet hits home. This was why I sometimes get easily irritated by my close friends. I really couldn't put it into words. Then you said it. I guess it's just "don't be rude to me".
I relate to this too. I feel like I’m always on the defence.
I believe that what shimon managed to pull off here on TH-cam is not only insanity, he's saved a bunch of people's lives.
Man this video made me cry 😭😭🥺I am going to visit my grandmother on the weekend
Absolute facts brother. We have to understand that life is full with challenges. It's like what they said. When life gives you lemons you make lemonade.
Being lonely is something i've tried to fight for a while now, it's hard but i feel like i shouldn't fight it because it hurts to even worry about it. Good talk man
Me too bro, the opening minute sounds like something I would say. It's tough, it's hard, we all wanna connect with someone who wants to connect with us, to feel loved and heard and wanted.
I'm on my journey to accomplish that. There's things I've had to overcome. Things I've had to do and get straight. Plenty more things in the future I'll need to put right before I can make that happen.
All I can say is, stop thinking about it and start making little adjustments and steps towards that goal, one day at a time. Doesn't matter what it is either - hit up the gym if you think it'll help, or be more consistent. Read a book on how to become more thought-provoking, or funny, or knowledgeable. Buy some damn beauty products and get a skin care routine if that's what you wanna do. Face your fear and do that thing you've put off for years and years.
Just don't keep thinking about doing things. You gotta do. Being paralyzed by fear or feelings of inadequacy is exactly how you get defeated.
It hurts me to worry about it too, I just know I can't be still any longer. I hope you find that frame of mind. I hope we all do and realize our potential, get out and experience the things in life that make it worth living.
I was honestly tearing up with you because both of my grandparents are gone. They helped raise me and my siblings, were always the nicest(even if grandma was a very emotional person) and i loved taking walks with my grandpa but now its hard to accept that I'll never see them again. They're house already has different people living in it so i cant even visit the old house. Sometimes i still talk to them tho...just vent at the ashes. I miss them but after alot of time and thinking I know that it was going to happen and that although I didnt value them as much as when they were alive, I value them almost more than myself now.
Hugs, brother. ❤ I completely get you. Right now, I'm at the hospital with my mom. She had to be admitted for critically low iron/anemia which almost took her out. Stuff like this reminds me as she's close to 60 with multiple ailments that we don't have too long with our folks. I just pray for strength and emotional stoicism for when the time comes, you know?
Hope your mom gets better 🙏❤
This was powerful. I felt like it was me speaking when you were talking.
Crying while watching this. I feel this more than you know. As i strive to love my 87 year old grandma, i realized im opening the whole in my heart up more & more for when she leaves ❤. Lifting you up my brother.
You’re so on time with this one
I am so thankful for the lack of cuts in the video, it makes everything so much more calming to watch. TH-cam videos are so erratic these days, this was very comforting to stumble across. I never thought anyone was as regularly panicked and distraught by the mortality of people as much as I was. Not being able to stay fighting with someone overnight because what if they didn't wake up the next morning? This video made that lonely feeling disappear for a little while. so thank you for sharing ♡
If i had you as a grandson i would be the happiest and proudest grandma in the world, so please don't feel guilty, ❤🩹
Wow bro,…. So fluid with no edit cuts at all. Seeing you be so vulnerable makes me feel not so bad about me crying in my last video….I appreciate you being so transparent with us all
keep your head up brother
You really impress me with your honest vision and detailed description of the diffuculties we experience in life. I feel your pain, I feel your vulnerability and your old spirit. It is pretty mature.
I wish you the best from the bottom of my heart.
You are a wise young man & will go far in life.
Keep living for love brother in spirit, you’re on a good path to wholesome peace 🙏🏼
It would be so dope if grandma and grandpa came on a video with you😢
Man, we all face struggles. It's beautiful to see how we deal with it. It's beautiful to watch as we grow and become stronger. Life is unfair, but we don't have to think any which way about how we're supposed to respond to it. Best thing to remember is that you have it now. Everything is valid. Your grandparents sound incredible. The older you get, the more comfortable with things you get. You're worthy of love and you don't have to prove it. Cheers.
I was just watching “your life matters more than you think” and here you are. I'll keep listening, absorbing the best that I can, everything I'll do is going to be by listening, hearing and absorbing. thanks, dude. god bless you.
So many bangers lately keep up the good wisdom
Hope you're doing well bro.
And same goes for me and everyone else, because we're all family, and we gotta understand that, and be there for eachother..
I love you all. Stay positive, and shoot your shots people. Just don't overshoot lol.
Your wisdom and knowledge for your age is absolutely extraordinary, watching you is like a breath of fresh air that i really needed 😊🙏💕 plz keep sharing your wisdom and guidance hun, it is helping many lives out there!
I really needed this conversation. It resonated deeply with me. I’m in the same situation with my own grandparents and I thought feeling this hurt about it wasn’t normal. It hurts deeply. Thank you Shimon.
@@matthn64 hope ur doing well Matt
feel the same abt my parents just want you to know that you ain’t alone
22 sec in and that statement resonated with me , btw love from south africa. ❤️🇿🇦
"I may not give them the energy that they give me". Man. That hit deeper than I expected. Sometimes I can't summon the resilience to keep my mask up and share laughs and create new memories with my mum who is ill, deep down there's an unwavering guilt of not being the best son I could be after everything she's done for me. I appreciate the authenticity man. You're inspiring.
There is no words I can use to describe how moving is everything you shared in this video. Thank you so much Simon. I can feel my heart beat. The warmth of it. The concrete crushing. Thank you Simon, thank you!
The last couple of days I've been feeling unwell. My heart racing, having the sensation not being able to breathe and kinda restless. Glad I found your video. You reminded me to take a deep breath and being aware of my emotions and letting them happen. Thank you.
There are so many more connections to be made when we find good people. U can always keep them in your heart.
Thank You For Being Vulnerable Like This With Us Today 🤍 You Are A Great Grandson And Wonderful Person With A Beautiful Spirit. I’m Sure They’ll Want The Best For You Shimon, You Can Be Miles Away But The Love You Have For Them And Vice Versa Will Never Die. When That Time Comes For Them, You Keep Those Memories You Have Of Them Alive The Best You Can. It’s Not Gonna Be Easy Especially Because It Looks Like They Played A Big Part In Your Life And Is A Big Part Of Who You Are As A Person. They Did So Good, Your Doing So Good. It’ll Never Hurt Less To Think Of Them Not Being Here In The World Anymore .. But As Time Goes By I Hope It’ll Start To Feel Okay.
It's kind of like you said we all are not that different after all. It's crazy about 70% of the things that you feel and went through are related to what I went through I just wish people would relate more and stop hating on each other
i started watching your videos when i started working my job to have “background noise” to help past the time and the more i listened to you speak, the more observant and thoughtful i became. You’re really helping me become a better person and be able to move on from things like my last relationship that ended right before i found you. finding your videos was truly a blessing to me. i tried to put my friends on to your videos but they just looked at my awkwardly and asked if i was ok. there’s nthn wrong with wanting to better your life is what i wanted to say but i just laughed it off. i hope one day they do start watching you bc you’re truly and inspiration.
you just made the most important video ive ever seen, man. there's no words to describe how grateful I am for you
Your love for your grandparents is a beautiful thing to show, thank you brother
I love the videos. The "Our world is over" one really opened my eyes.
Yeah sometimes your body or your heart knows their is pain and is crying but your mind doesn't know why
I remember this feeling too. I was in my mid 20s. I remember. The hit of reality is different. And then same when I hit 30 again for different people for different reasons. I see this and I hear you. Been here too, it’s good you are just being honest about it and getting it all out there. Yes. We are all hurting. And trying once we realize.
I feel understood by watching your video. It feels like your talking for me. Thank you for this honest and wise video content.
Im 16 minutes into the video, and all i gotta say is dont beat yourself down over these things. I know that i dont know the emotional connection over a screen but i tend to go through that same feeling of not being enough or wanting to be better. The best thing to do is not worry about it because manifestation is real. Just stay being positive stay showing love. Those miscommunications that you mentioned through the video are like you said "apart of human nature". Stay being positive life has downs and ups but you are the one who will decide how long they stay. Love 💙
18:57 its like you know they wont be there forever. And the day they will be gone you will recall the memories you made and the pain hits. Thats why you need to cherish the time you have left with them. Shimon i would love to help you with that pain but i dont know if i can (im 16yo). You helped me with my problems and you dont even know it. I hurts to see you or other people in pain. Love yall
man I cried a lot watching this video. I have guilt too over how I treated my grandparents when I was a teen because I was isolating myself from my family. thank you!
Sending you love brother. Thank you for your wisdom and authenticity. 💎
It's going to be alright, energy never dies, and love if very powerful, thanks I feel like that about my granddaughter and my children. Inshallah
Your grandparents are some precious beings of light and love you ate so blessed to have them. Please give them a deep hug when you see them/or the equivalent! ❤🥰🔥#protection and guidance!
Our grandparents are proud to know their lessons will carry on to those next in line to hold the torch
everything you say i can relate to, the feeling isn’t good for sure. i hope we all can overcome it eventually.
You’re a legend brother, thank you for these videos. From a 27 yr old dude navigating through life, I appreciate you.
I know exactly what you are talking about. Ive seen with my own eyes how people I care about are affected with life when I am near, and when I am far. It was hard, really hard to see it and to acknoledge it. In some extremely weird and profound way I started grieving my parents years ago. Its a long process. Now... I am simply grateful that they are alive and well. Grateful for the time given. Because its a gift
Excuse me, can I cry here?...thank you.😭
Shimon, you don't know how much you help us all with these words of wisdom. Keep up your hard work and always be proud of who you are, brother.❤️
GOOD HEALTH AND BLESSINGS SHIMON🙏🙏🙏
Wow man, you sir have brought me literally to tears with your family story. I empathized to your blessings making me look onto my life and memorize some good moments with my family, but i've always felt distant, like not belonging from a very young age. But it got me to tears, in years of not being able to, you made me feel safe and i empathized through this beatiful episode. Thanks man.
You can always have that solitude in your back pocket, but fight to find the right people and learn to deal with the loneliness the best you can.
For me I either have went into my solitude comfort zone and did my own thing 90-95% of the time and felt almost no loneliness. Or I go out take chances and want more out of life and deal with crazy loneliness.
I love my grandparents! I really enjoyed this side of you ❤ Thank you
i cried along watching this vide dude and, i wanna say the strength you have in willing to share this vulnerability with the world is really powerful. i relate to feeling like you're not the greatest grandson. i wasn't always the greatest at staying in contact with family nor friends, but i try to. sometimes i'm too caught up in my own world that i forget that there are people on this planet who care for me, and have my best interests in their hearts. even though i don't reach out often i do care alot for them too. thank you for sharing this video, although i remember you saying once that you make these videos for yourself but end up sharing them, so i appreciate that. thank you.
I’ve been struggling recently and past couple of days I fell back into old toxic patterns I’m not proud of, today I found your videos and I’ve spend a few hours watching them and they been super helpful and comforting, the tightness in my chest has eased today
Glad I found your channel
I used to disregard/hate these kinds of videos, but here I am wishing i had heard this a long, long time ago. I've experienced the same thoughts you've mentioned here like mortality, family, home, guilt, etc but I've drowned those thoughts out with distractions. I feel like I've been destroying myself for so long by doing that but I've come to realize that the shit I needed THE MOST was right there in front of me. My family, my friends, MY LIFE. I feel so much shame about it but I'm hopeful. Life is so precious and we are so lucky to just exist and experience life. I also wanna say that facing reality, as painful and stressful as it is, is way better than smothering it. Even if you feel like things are becoming unbearable, NEVER feel ashamed to talking to your loved ones for guidance and support. My father passed away at the peak of covid. He's always told me "NO. MAN. IS AN ISLAND." I always listened to it and understood it but only now has it started to really resonate with me. One last thing, isolation and comfort is a drug that no one can detect BUT YOU. So please, please, please keep that shit in check. Peace.
Every time bro cries i start crying , i thought im the only one who feels this way, all i wanna say is god bless bro for being so real , he heals himself trough out healing us what a legend ❤️
Appreciate your honesty and wisdom. I’m 36 I’m learning a lot from this channel. Your greatest is shine 💯
I love how you talk it make me grow and realise how childish I was tysm every videos I see the world differently, I grew thanks to you
It's such a heartwarming story about you and your grandparents! In the end, we all make mistakes, but you care a lot about them. 🙏🏽♥️
i have never heard anyone talk that literally says how i feel, i came across one of your videos today and i thought you were a really smart person in this generation so i thought i would watch more until i came across this video of yours.. i really want to thank you..
this is the first time i comment on someone's video.
Keep up the good work ❤️
Thank you Shimon...you've helped me so much for a while now. It took me awhile to finally start talking my first steps, but thank so much for your wisdom and realness.
A man must be big enough to admit his mistakes, smart enough to profit from them, and strong enough to correct them. ~ John C. Maxwell.
its hard to put into words, but the book Magnetic Aura from Talesio completely changed my life and it's not new age bs
I miss my grandma everyday day. Only person who defended me. Only person to make me feel like I'm important. The rest of my "family" couldn't care less about me. It's been really lonely lately. But if your grandma is still alive cherish her ❤
What a beautiful story and tribute to your grandparents. You gave them joy throughout their lives. They helped make you what you are today. ❤❤❤
"It's incredible that you're creating these videos to help others in need. I'm dealing with some depression myself-not too severe, but I often feel sad, and I haven't seen many other channels making content like yours. Shimon Davis, this is the time when people really need videos like yours. Every year, it seems to get worse, and millions are struggling with sadness and depression. Your work can truly make a difference for many people now and in the future. I also find it hard to talk to others without feeling scared. It feels like our world is becoming more challenging, and more people are experiencing depression. 😭" THANK YOU KEEP IT UP MY DUDE 💌
I feel guilty too because my childhood i was close to my grandpa and grandma as we get older we separate because we focusing on our own lives work and everything i constantly feel guilty because they are both sick and at times i can see them i choose not to because of my really bad anxiety and i end up hating myself knowing what if something happens to them and they die because i was scared to talk to them or just spend time with them 😢 and all i can think about is the good times we had or when they were healthy younger happy stories they share the places we went to hurts bad. I feel like I'm the only person in my family that's so in touch with my emotions i literally feel everything so much bro even for bugs the birds, strangers, i am always taking pictures of my mom and dad too i can eat with them and just stare at em while trying not to cry with a smile. I feel this bro on a deep level.
i think it's sweet and a really valuable trait to have to be in touch with emotions. try maybe message or call your grandparents maybe
This video was so raw. Ive been wanting to go back home to see my grandparents and sisters so bad but watching this made me realize how much I truly miss them
I haven't watched but this vid came at a crazy time man. Just yesterday me an a friend we were talking about one of our other friends and how we felt about something he went through but how we both thought he never had went through that before like us.
But as we were talking and comparing our stories I realized how much I got messed up from it by seeing his reaction to it and same for him. So many of us go through so much that we hide perfectly or you'd never guess. It's insane to think about
I love this vid bro. ❤️ I’m learning there’s nothing to ever lie about or ever any reason to pretend. Life is real. Death is real. Life too short to pretend we aren’t hurting, or hurting those around us. Just use the time we got to heal and love to our greatest capacity. 💕
I love your videos, Shimon! It's so great to see someone speak so openly and honestly about various things.
I've recently realised that being honest is the most important thing you can do in this life.
It helps you experience positive outcomes in different situations, making you a better person.
Keep going bro!
This is absolutely beautiful. Made me think of my grandfather and how close we were. I had the opportunity to travel the world and live in several places. When I moved to Germany my grandfather and I would write each other. He wasn't able to visit me due to his health but he lived through me. He loved me sharing my experiences and pictures of where I'd been. He was my best friend and I miss him so much. He transitioned 7 years ago. ❤
I cried with you because I would like to have at least one person like that
Thank you for sharing your story. I am very inspired by your videos and have been reflecting on a lot of the same topics you've mentioned on your channel. I hope you know even when your grandparents' time comes, they will ALWAYS be alive in you. Like you said, energy can never be destroyed, and you ARE a good grandson. I am sure they appreciate everything you do for them. I think the only thing you can do is focus on the present, spend as much time as you can with them and cherish every second of it. Their love and strength will live on through you forever, and I think that is kind of comforting to think about. It's normal to feel guilt, but you sound like you are truly doing as much as you can to be there for them which is all you can really do at the end of the day :/
Thank you for sharing yourself, your thoughts, your lessons, and your emotions with all of us. Thank you for creating this community of people to help understand/acknowledge shadow parts of ourselves and connecting with others going through the same things. Thank you for being here and being yourself. I hope you can continue to do things that make you happy and proud.
Thank you for the vulnerability and transparency. Sharing life experiences, opinions, and views of the world that I agree and/or disagree with, or allows me to see things in a new light. Thank you, because I know you don’t have to be here- and I know all of us aren’t entitled to even this little bit of access to you.
Thanks for being so vulnerable
The way I hear you and the way I feel so heard. I relate to you exactly how you expressed it. My grandparents were the only ones who made me feel seen and understood. Keep it up man you’ve got a community right here for you
Please, keep doing these videos, be vulnurable and open, without cuts, just like this. And again, thank you, thank you so much. Especially for this video, becaue it speaks volumes to me. So real and honest
Love you man, you bring a lot of energy and authenticity into these moments. Keep speaking your voice and let your heart be heard, you don’t know how much of your light you’ve given to help others along. You’re sincere and honest, never lose sight of that, you have a big heart!
33:30 intricate balance, but you've got this 🫶🏽 i love this bond with your family. Thank you for sharing your story. Its definitely rare.. so grateful for my big, tight-knit, loving family tree.
I love how you framed this, happy loneliness as a very real phenomena. Being fine with being lonely and self but not as a result of choosing to always be alone. Loneliness as a circumstance from prior trauma that pushes a person to comfortability in that state. I relate my brother, I too am 21 and I would be deceitful in saying that I didn't wish for more friends who share an age group with me--like you said in a prior video it is human nature to want to be seen and to be heard. Even so, at this point in my life, I wrestle with putting myself back out there because are we truly greater than our struggles and if not where lies the worth in pouring the negative connotations into someone else.
Your videos keep relating to me when you release them. It's almost telling me that the universe is listening. You have helped me so much with your content and I want to say thank you man.
Love love live I'm in England. I love being on my own too. Then I can listen to like minded people like u.
Ur such a rare soul. Trust me when they do pass u will be able to feel them around u all the time.❤ i’m 22 and lost my grandma a couple years ago who i would describe as my soulmate. And my granddad April of this year❤️. Eventually the thought of them will make u smile and give u strength. I used to cry on my grandma’s lap about her dying while she was still alive😂. Trust me even though they will be gone physical,energetically u will feel them..I promise🤍
I'm French I discovered your videos this morning, and I can't stop watching them thank you for making me discover this 🙏🏽you also help me improve my English , i love you bro
ah man, I feel your pain. I regret not seeing my grandparents the last few years before they died, I love them so much
You helped me a lot bro
Needed to hear this today it reminded me to spend more time with my grandma.. she loves my energy and I love hers 🌸
Ive watched 2 videos from you and you became the most relatable youtube I have ever watched. Your videos honestly help me also knowing that I'm not the only one who feels like this. Its nice to know when there is someone like you in this world. Praying for you man.
I completely understand! I’d rather explain than try to convince or convert someone’s already made up belief. But I absolutely loved loved loved this video!
Man I can tell how amazing your grandparents are just by the emotion they evoke out of you. May God bless them and keep them healthy and happy for a very long time and may they see your constant success and elevation in life physically and one day in the spiritual form 🙏🏾 blessings my brother
