Huge Shout out to the the gal who said, "Im not ready to let go of anything yet, because im still learning from it. I'll Release it when Im done learning. A lot of people not only hold so much in, but others try to mask or find ways to ignore their issues through out life. It's quite difficult to face the things you struggle with and learn from it. Mad respect.
I wanted to quote this but you did already, thank you! It's such a positive perspective on what could also be "I'm unable to let go, I'm failing to", very mature
I absolutely loved this quote, because learning from our garbage is perhaps one of the most important things we can do in this life. The progress we make, and the distance we grow ultimately is why we are here. To take responsibility for learning and letting go properly is something that gives that person my utmost respect.
“It feels silly to be mad at something like this.” I feel like this about everything because I assume I’m overreacting, but sometimes you actually have to just accept it so you can come to terms with it, instead of just trying to shove it back down
Someone told me that every emotion you feel is real. It's okay to be mad or sad over the littlest thing. The thing we have to do is control our reactions to those experiences. We can not control our emotions, however, we can control our reactions. It may be harder for some to control their reactions but there are way to improve that control.
Mad is just a frustrated emotion. No worries. To add to what you said....In order to clear something its important to know exactly and specifically what it is you are "excepting" and why those things happened. I can say to at least one person - it's possible. I'm sixty years old and three weeks ago I got the answer to ALL the questions in my life. I mean that I have been working for 3 weeks now to find a memory of any action, any like, any dislike - why I was abused, why I was abused by that person. Why I feel the way I do, do the things I do, why what makes me happy makes me happy and why I feel the pain so intensely and why I have the the things that I have and most importantly why I have my beautiful wife by my side.....spoiler alert: its not God. It was all the exact characteristics of ADHD. I beg anyone who reads this to check yourself. Its all here on youtube. It's tough but very very empowering to have answers. Forgiveness comes much easier. This diagnosis has been a gift from the universe.
@@-Natty You are right! You may not be able to control what a person says to you, but you can control how you react to it. That's a lesson in itself. Not always easy. They say there are only two emotions; love and fear. Anger is fear based. I agree with that, although it took me a long time to really "get it." You have to dig deep.
It’s an awesome project, but after 5 min of watching I realised that I enjoy the background so much - people just walking, riding or playing…it seems so simple, so peaceful Thank you!
Same bro I'm always trying to hold it together. These videos let me know I'm not alone and it's overwhelming heating people's story you're not alone either brother peace
I got tears in my eyes for the person thinking about suicide. I was once told I could flip the switch when thinking about not living. To think about LIVING! Do something new EVERY day. Walk backward if necessary...Smile and say hello to someone. Seriously. It helped.
i found it really interesting how people kept reading notes very similar to theirs, i think it was kinda the universe's way of showing them that its okay to let it go
This is really cool because not only does it give the writer a sense of freedom, but also validates them when others are able to relate or otherwise empathize with it.
She reminded me of how society makes us feel. Like we shouldn’t feel hurt over the small things. But the truth is no one can justify what didn’t hurt us. We all have our own individual experience. Her exp is valid and feelings are valid.
@@vandalsavage6743 my boomer parents judged and still judge me (a woman) for my emotions. My siblings as well. My best friends parents were like this too when we were little girls. So were all of my aunts, uncles and grandparents. I don't show emotion in front of my friends or romantic partners. I have a dissociative disorder because of this and PTSD. I struggle to feel my feelings to show them in the first place, even in therapy. I know it's important to feel them but I've never had a safe place to do that before. It feels self indulgent to cry and nobody cares when I do. So for me it never helped me get my needs met and I learned that people would distance themselves from me unless I had a "mildly smiling resting face" and no problems. My friends and I often choose sensitive men who are in touch with their feelings. I try to reciprocate and be open with them as well, but as of yet nobody has been able to hold space for me to speak about my feelings, the conversation usually comes back to them. Don't listen to people who tell you you're not a man for having feelings, or that women won't want you. There are plenty around who appreciate this in a partner. Even if this seems to be the norm in your social circle and what you see online. Choose to follow creators who show men who are comfortable with their emotion and happy in their relationships. Choose to seek out new friendships where this attitude is not so pervasive. The whole world is not like this. It's like we've been bought up in a fishbowl and we need to get ourselves into the river ❤
i noticed this too. It was really touching to hear him speak and it made me wonder also about the role models he has had in his life who may have played a part in how thoughtful and wise he appears at his young age- very beautiful to see
I think the girl at 1:14 describes in a simple way why many people are holding on to things, because when you are in the process of letting go, you will have to face pain and grief. Eventually, those feelings will dissipate and you will find peace ❤ I hope everyone finds the courage within them to let go ❤️
Came across this as I was Journaling about how i have always felt uncared for by my family. And I'm seeing how it has shaped me into a person that makes people not want to be around and when they leave it just reinforces how uncared for and alone I feel. So now I'm looking to let go of these negative thoughts and feelings so that I can stop acting in accordance with them and pushing people away and blaming them for leaving. This healing shit is tough, but we got this. Love yall! 🤍🌷
You wrote basically what I feel- you are not alone. And at least now we know it's within us to do better and feel better, right? Wishing whoever reads this strength, hope, peace and comfort.
What a very insightful thing to say. It takes great strength to come to realisations like this one and admit that we have some work to do, but that's half the battle already. As you're free to take responsibility for your happiness and the person you are, I know that you will go places and attract those wonderful people who love you like you love (or will learn to) love yourself. Wishing you much love from my corner of the world ❤
Thoraya, Never stop doing what your doing. The love that is coming out of your work is infectious and is exactly what humanity needs right now. Thank you so much.
“I’m not ready to let go of anything yet. ‘cause I’m still learning from it. And I’ll release it, when I’m done learning”kicked me straight in the gut. There’s a lot of pressure put on people to forgive, as almost a short cut to healing. But it always frustrated me that that was the expectation. And that expectation filled me with resentment and in turn made me hold on tighter to the pain and anger caused by the one who hurt me. So no. I won’t let that shit go. Because I’m still learning from it. And I’ll release it when I’m done learning
People. They hurt me and I've been too patient with them, couldn't seem to let go. But I'm done holding onto them because I'm pouring into them and they are not pouring into me. I'm wilting as they are becoming greener.
People's opinions of me. I've been so obsessive about what people think of me because I've grown up hearing comments about my appearance (I don't even know what I look like, all I hear is that I'm fat) and my personality. And many around me say I'm never going to get a boyfriend or be liked by people if I don't lose weight. Which is difficult because I have PCOS.
The crazy distrust I have, and the belief that no-one truly loves anyone wholly. I hate feeling like this, but it’s just something I can’t move beyond.
I need to let go of blaming myself for not doing more to "save" my father before he passed. He had many underlying health issues and knew he was going to die. In the back of my mind i feel like hos side of the family blames me for going to work that day, even tho he old me too!
Had an empty jar and decided to do this for myself. Hoping I can do it daily until I can physically move on. First entry.. Tired of being scared to move on. I want to be among the living again. $#*! GO Thank you!!💖🍶
I haven't been watching your videos for a while because since I started taking a professional path that centers a lot around strong emotions and problems, I started watching way less emotional content and much more light hearted stuff, but I am so glad that you keep doing this! you are awesome! And you are such a valuable creator
this is the most wholesome channel in all of youtube, every time i need some faith or some hope, every time i feel like the world is cold and cruel, i come here to feel warmth :)
Always the best concepts!! This was incredibly touching to watch. I need to let go of the narrative I have created for myself because it is constraining and hurtful.
I’ve watched many of your videos, and I usually just watch what I love around YT and never comment or like. This might be my first comment on a video of someone I don’t know, yet I want to thank you for what you do and acknowledge how the world is benefiting from your inspiration to being awareness to the human condition. Your videos remind me that everyone is going through something, and you bring a normalcy to openness and vulnerability, as if it’s not just acceptable….it’s clearly beautiful. May you be blessed with all of the things you secretly dream of experiencing or letting go. Wouldn’t it be cool to find a way to pay it forward somehow that took hold and really upgraded peioels’ lives in a tangible way? I don’t know what the idea could be, yet would be fun to come up with a bunch of ways to bring strangers together to give a little, and have that little helps someone in a huge way. Then just try them out…and share the good vibes about how a little can go a long way when we show up and work together. I’d love to do that and focus on children who are disadvantaged. Big huge thank you for being you.
Cried when I heard the note about not being able to talk to people because words just get mixed up their mind. That is something I wish I could let go of too. It's especially hard when you want to express love & care to other people but the more you try, the more monotonous it feels & sounds so you just ultimately give up & TRY to trust that your words were impactful enough to get the message across. It's even more difficult when you only have online friends. Where the inability to speak could have been replaced by a hand hold or hug but you just can't because they live in a whole other time zone.
I'm 27 and tonight I was told by someone I thought of as a mother, who I've known since I was 5 that everything bad that's happened in my life is my fault, that I never take responsibility and that I'm fat, lazy and need to 'give up my dogs and get my life together '. After alot of loss in the last few years and unimaginable grief that comes with it, this hurt me in the deepest parts of my soul. This woman was a woman I looked up to and trusted wholeheartedly with my life and soul. And now I question if I'll ever trust again. Thoraya, thank you so much! I clearly really needed this!! And to all those that have shit they want to let go of, you're not alone, you are loved and pain is only temporary. As sure as the sun rises and sets you will feel peace and love and all will be well again. Love and light 🙏🤍
Another beautiful, simplistic idea from you. I'm always thrown for how open people are when given the opportunity to be heard. I would have cried, missing a strangers note and tossing it in the bin. Not sure how to put into words how I think that would make me feel. Love this.
I was emotionally and physically abused by my now ex girlfriend. She broke me to my core and I just don't know how to get myself back. I wish I could let go of all the pain I am left with so that I don't spend evey day in pain living like this is no way to live I just wish I knew how to do it
I think the sign got attention because there were so many ways to interpret it. It could be your own regrets or the pain you felt from someone else’s actions, but either way, it’s just better to let those things go. Forgive but don’t forget, and that includes yourself. Understand why it was done, you gotta face that head on whether you like the reason or not, then learn from it and let the pain go. Don’t let it consume or control you. You’re better than that.
It's good to see you start posting content again. This is a very good topic. Everybody has something in their life that they need to let go and you just provided that opportunity to them. Thank you for that.
I totally love this one and relate to some of the writings that people wrote and wish that there was more people out there to do something like what you're doing
Yes writing your emotions is so healing. I did this when my mother passed and dealing with my estranged son. It helped more than you know. Memories, anger,sadness, it all went on paper. Sealed it in an envelope and not opened it sense.
Good advice that I need to start doing. When those intrusive thoughts start filling up my mind & heart I need to write them down and either throw them away or burn them. I've come a long way but the journey is never over. One more tool to help me. Thank you to all who participated and shared.
I work with teens who have intrusive thoughts and having "purpose" keeps the mind occupied and "full" with positive things. Helping the homeless, loving/caring for animals at the SPCA, habitats for humanity, etc are all things that can give you "purpose". I don't have any mental health stuff but if I'm "stagnant " for too long I get antsy and I have to take up a meaningful project. Not socializing for a prolonged period of time is detrimental to me. You've got this!
You remind me of my therapist, always write down your thoughts on paper. But sometimes when you're already overwhelmed with your own thoughts, you can't remember any good suggestions. Thank you for keep making this type of video. I wish you know how impactful your move is.
I HEARD MY STRUGGLES BEING MENTIONED BY MANY. I HOPE WE ALL CAN BE HEALED BY LETTING THINGS GO THAT DO NOT SERVE US IN THIS LIFE-I AM GOING TO REMEMBER THAT ONE. THANK YOU FOR ALLOWING MYSELF TO MOVE ONE STEP CLOSER TO TOTAL HEALING OF MY HEART, MIND, AND SOUL. GOD BLESS ALL OF YOU OUT THERE! I LOVE YOU AND SO DOES GOD!
Thoraya, you offer such a gentle healing space for so many with your work. Thank you for following your inspiration and being such a graceful portal for uplifting. 🙏🏻❤️
Wow I really enjoyed watching this type of video, even just hearing all of the things people want/need to let go, I felt a sense of relief and impact ❤
You’re videos are appreciated and welcome. Always uplifting and a reminder that everyone has struggles and that often we worry about things about ourselves that simply aren’t true. Happy Easter. Blessings, hope and healing to everyone! 🐣🐥
"I'm with them.. I'm right there with them." ❤ This is the take-away here. Those words say it all for me. We are all so much more alike than we tend to believe. My favorite thing you did here, Thoraya, was have some of them leave their notes for others to read. That right there showed those people, in such a profound way, that whatever it is we're going through, and so much of what we're feeling, is being experienced by those around us. Choose to be kind. It could change someone's life.. You have a bigger impact on the world around you than you realize. ❤
the woman that said she wasn’t ready to let go because she’s not done learning brought tears to me eyes. I am one to try and speed the process of healing but you just can’t. It’s a day to day journey.
Your methods are so powerful. Brings up emotions inside of myself. You are creating more empathetic and loving people one by one with the people who are in your videos and the ones who watch... all different people young and old...
I love your videos and how raw they are ❤ People often think we are the only ones with that feeling but truth be told everyone feels them at some point of their life. I wish you did something like this online as well via webcam/microphone as being from the UK I’m very unlikely to see you in person but I’d love to be a part of your video and speak about something raw and honest and hopefully it could help someone else so they know they ain’t alone.
There videos are very impactful. I am always brought to a certain level of awareness about my own feelings when ppl share such intimate thoughts about their life and their experiences. We are more alike than not and yet so many of us are distant and feel isolated. I wish this wasn't so..
Huge Shout out to the the gal who said, "Im not ready to let go of anything yet, because im still learning from it. I'll Release it when Im done learning.
A lot of people not only hold so much in, but others try to mask or find ways to ignore their issues through out life. It's quite difficult to face the things you struggle with and learn from it.
Mad respect.
Totally agree. I love that name you have btw!

I want to be your friend 🌻
Me too !
Me, too!
@@Thorayaa can I ask where this park is? Looks like san diego but I could be way off haha
Your videos always feel like small therapy sessions to me. They make me feel less alone in my feelings. Thank you!
You make me cry so often and yet I keep following you. Because when the tears dry I always feel better as a man . Thank you.
Same bro I'm always trying to hold it together. These videos let me know I'm not alone and it's overwhelming heating people's story you're not alone either brother peace
"As a man" stroke Hard. Me too man. Have a nice easter
@@matthias7544 thank you.
And I hope your Easter was good and may your days bty enjoyable
those are tears of selfe-healing. Having this ability speaks of a powerful soul and I think it's beautiful, especially in men.
FR I JS START SOBBING EVEN AFTER THAT DANCE VID 💀😭
The girl who defined forgiveness hit my core! So profound and genuine! Sending love to Thoraya for creating this episodes ❤

It's not silly getting mad. We're humans. We feel emotions. So, feel it then let it go. We're not meant to bottle up our emotions or we blow up.

We are all dealing with the same things and only when we feel courageous enough to share do we realize we’re not alone. 1💚 Thoraya
Forgiveness is accepting that nothing you can do now can change then. Grace is accepting that you are in charge of how you feel and what you do NOW.

“It doesn’t serve me anymore in life” thank you so much
“No fear. No distractions. The ability to let that which does not matter truly slide.”
I love how many people got something similar to what they wrote. This is so connecting. ❤
The girl with the parent note thought the other note someone wrote to their parents was the opposite, but it was actually the answer to her note.
Yeah that's what I noticed
This is such a good idea. Love your work.
Thoraya, Never stop doing what your doing. The love that is coming out of your work is infectious and is exactly what humanity needs right now. Thank you so much.
I love that definition of forgiveness "right now"...I needed that ❤

After alot of loss in the last few years and unimaginable grief that comes with it, this hurt me in the deepest parts of my soul. This woman was a woman I looked up to and trusted wholeheartedly with my life and soul. And now I question if I'll ever trust again.
Thoraya, thank you so much! I clearly really needed this!!
And to all those that have shit they want to let go of, you're not alone, you are loved and pain is only temporary. As sure as the sun rises and sets you will feel peace and love and all will be well again.
Love and light 🙏🤍
This is so freaking powerful I had goosebumps and tears in my eyes the whole time!
Needed this. Reminds me to stay alive and be happy for being me!
Shout out from Barbados. I can't forget anything and it makes it hard to let go of anything. I'm glad for you guys.
I’m so got damn proud of you dude. You’ve come so far
U bring so much love and releaf in this world. I so glad about that, thank you ♥️
I laughed and clapped at the same time as you! Our energy was in line both times I saw you. You shine!🌟☀️
Another beautiful, simplistic idea from you. I'm always thrown for how open people are when given the opportunity to be heard.
I would have cried, missing a strangers note and tossing it in the bin. Not sure how to put into words how I think that would make me feel.
Love this.
Love this❤
Thank you ❤
Thoraya is an Angel! She’s helping a lot of people!!❤
All of your videos make me feel some type of way. Thank you for the work you do. I'm sure it's not always easy.
It’s amazing how therapeutic this is. For me, listening to a lot of these, I could relate to and not feel alone. Thank you all.
Love your work, watching people trying to make peace with their lives somehow makes me feel better about the world.
The forgiveness explanation; spot on.
I absolutely love this!! People just being people!
Your videos are all so profound. I hope you know how much impact they have, both on the people in them and those of us watching ❤
I was emotionally and physically abused by my now ex girlfriend. She broke me to my core and I just don't know how to get myself back. I wish I could let go of all the pain I am left with so that I don't spend evey day in pain living like this is no way to live I just wish I knew how to do it
I think the sign got attention because there were so many ways to interpret it. It could be your own regrets or the pain you felt from someone else’s actions, but either way, it’s just better to let those things go. Forgive but don’t forget, and that includes yourself. Understand why it was done, you gotta face that head on whether you like the reason or not, then learn from it and let the pain go. Don’t let it consume or control you. You’re better than that.
Watching this is cathartic!
5:51 That guy is funny! Love all of your videos, Thoraya!
It's good to see you start posting content again. This is a very good topic. Everybody has something in their life that they need to let go and you just provided that opportunity to them. Thank you for that.
I totally love this one and relate to some of the writings that people wrote and wish that there was more people out there to do something like what you're doing
Some pain is so deeply rooted inside it can never be let go.
This video was like a balm on my soul. I truly thank you for making these.
People are so wise! This is why I love meeting new people and having good conversations!
You are such a wonderful person please don't stop!! Would love to see you travel and spread your message to the whole country
Yes writing your emotions is so healing. I did this when my mother passed and dealing with my estranged son. It helped more than you know. Memories, anger,sadness, it all went on paper. Sealed it in an envelope and not opened it sense.
Good advice that I need to start doing. When those intrusive thoughts start filling up my mind & heart I need to write them down and either throw them away or burn them. I've come a long way but the journey is never over. One more tool to help me. Thank you to all who participated and shared.
I work with teens who have intrusive thoughts and having "purpose" keeps the mind occupied and "full" with positive things. Helping the homeless, loving/caring for animals at the SPCA, habitats for humanity, etc are all things that can give you "purpose". I don't have any mental health stuff but if I'm "stagnant " for too long I get antsy and I have to take up a meaningful project. Not socializing for a prolonged period of time is detrimental to me. You've got this!
Thorayaa I love these videos so much! It heals my heart not to feel so alone. 💕🌟🌸☀️🌎
You remind me of my therapist, always write down your thoughts on paper. But sometimes when you're already overwhelmed with your own thoughts, you can't remember any good suggestions. Thank you for keep making this type of video. I wish you know how impactful your move is.
I love what you do, keep up the awesome job girl
i'm crying every single vidéo,
you're doing the world a better place to be
TY so much
Great one. Thank you for bringing this to everyone thoraya
I HEARD MY STRUGGLES BEING MENTIONED BY MANY. I HOPE WE ALL CAN BE HEALED BY LETTING THINGS GO THAT DO NOT SERVE US IN THIS LIFE-I AM GOING TO REMEMBER THAT ONE. THANK YOU FOR ALLOWING MYSELF TO MOVE ONE STEP CLOSER TO TOTAL HEALING OF MY HEART, MIND, AND SOUL. GOD BLESS ALL OF YOU OUT THERE! I LOVE YOU AND SO DOES GOD!
Thoraya, you offer such a gentle healing space for so many with your work. Thank you for following your inspiration and being such a graceful portal for uplifting. 🙏🏻❤️
I love the way your mind works.....Thanks for sharing....
I really needed this. Thank you, Thoraya❤
I love your content!
You make videos that actually matter and confront issues that need to be talked about.
So, thank you ❤️
You are the most amazing person to let people know someone cares about their feelings and they can be so honest because of it. You are a blessing 😊❤
What a powerful video - thank you. Shows that we are not alone then we think as many of us are going or have experienced the same things.
Wow I really enjoyed watching this type of video, even just hearing all of the things people want/need to let go, I felt a sense of relief and impact ❤
You’re videos are appreciated and welcome. Always uplifting and a reminder that everyone has struggles and that often we worry about things about ourselves that simply aren’t true. Happy Easter. Blessings, hope and healing to everyone! 🐣🐥
You videos and the amazing people that share their experiences heal my soul, thank you for your hard work 💜
"I'm with them.. I'm right there with them."
❤
This is the take-away here. Those words say it all for me.
We are all so much more alike than we tend to believe.
My favorite thing you did here, Thoraya, was have some of them leave their notes for others to read.
That right there showed those people, in such a profound way, that whatever it is we're going through, and so much of what we're feeling, is being experienced by those around us.
Choose to be kind. It could change someone's life..
You have a bigger impact on the world around you than you realize. ❤
Wonderful. Thank you. This gave me hope! 😁
the woman that said she wasn’t ready to let go because she’s not done learning brought tears to me eyes. I am one to try and speed the process of healing but you just can’t. It’s a day to day journey.
I would love a part 2 to this! What a beautiful concept❤
Your methods are so powerful. Brings up emotions inside of myself. You are creating more empathetic and loving people one by one with the people who are in your videos and the ones who watch... all different people young and old...
Love this content, this is what the internet needs more of ❤ thank you😊
I love how the most self-actualized people manifest in the most unexpected packages.
I’m so glad you’re back Thoraya. I love your book💜
THIS WAS BRILLIANT!! 👏💯👌🙌 Holy cow. ❤
I love your videos and how raw they are ❤ People often think we are the only ones with that feeling but truth be told everyone feels them at some point of their life. I wish you did something like this online as well via webcam/microphone as being from the UK I’m very unlikely to see you in person but I’d love to be a part of your video and speak about something raw and honest and hopefully it could help someone else so they know they ain’t alone.
You’re brilliant,Thoraya❤! Continued blessings ❤️🙏🏽
There videos are very impactful. I am always brought to a certain level of awareness about my own feelings when ppl share such intimate thoughts about their life and their experiences. We are more alike than not and yet so many of us are distant and feel isolated. I wish this wasn't so..
Your videos are so inspiring, Thoraya! I love them so much, keep up the good work!
Me too, I guess the only thing I'd like to let go of is the embarrassing feeling of my sexuality, I don't know how to be ok with it
