Hard question, my friend. Good Video. Can't really tell if your video helped me find it, but yes, it feels like "Purpose" is the thing everyone needs to have. You should probably make a video on how to keep looking for new things to check out and try to find yourself. There are so many ways to "find yourself" but so much of them just a waste of time.
I think my purpose is the same as that of a cat. It seems the difference is that I can experience it in many more ways than the cat, and I can try to act like a god and create things for enjoyment and helpfulness. But the most important of this aspect to me is the global purpose of existence, of which I can't be sure. The problem is, I don't need substitutes for its explanation - it's easier to believe in something, but I need the facts. So, if I create worlds in games, hope my creations won't ask themselves about their global purpose. :)
I literally logged on this morning with the intention of watching one of your old vids and low and behold, right at the top of my queue - there you were. Perfect timing, my friend. I'm purpose-challenged right now. Needed this. Great to have you back. Hope all is well
needed this honestly last time i saw your last video things were good but thinfs have been a little misguided and this truly brought me some clarity insight
OMG i have been craving your videos for a month, and only recently discovered you and couldnt remember who you were or how to find you. very glad this popped up on my feed! phew. now i can bookmark your channel!
It is fantastic to see you once again! You always have such great wisdom to share, and all the videos you have shared as a whole hase changed my life for the better. Thank you so much as always. Also, I definitely did notice you had been gone; often checked in to see if I had missed a video or not lol.
What is the purpose of dancing? Of laughter? Does it even require a purpose? The only purpose we all have is the one and the same:: to en-joy life. To be joy! And therein answers your popular (although meaningless) question of "what is my purpose": So, what is YOUR purpose? Your purpose is to be joyful and spread joy. What makes you joyful? Whatever that is, that is where your purpose lies. Stop thinking about "purpose" and "utility" and "meaning", these are human-made concepts. All you need do is realise your discontent arises not from lacking purpose, but from seeking purpose when there is no such thing. If anything, you choose what to give purpose to. The neverending seeking is what causes you misery, because it is essentially a lack of acceptance of your present self. Just live your life in a blissful way, and that is the best way to have a positive impact on everyone you come across :) find what brings you joy, and spend time with that.
life is so magnificent. i can’t just stick w one purpose. there is so much to live and be grateful for. i sometimes feel that my purpose is to spend time w my family while i can. idk. other days my purpose feels something else. this inconsistency hopefully wont fw me to the path to mastery ( or should i say masteries!)
Glad to see you back, tough i wonder to myself if being attached to content isn't itself a bad thing, but nevertheless, i enjoy what you produce I'll keep in mind that last phrase, "The meaning of life is to give life a meaning"
I think the hardest part of purpose is that it is changing and you need to constantly be aware of if it is still working for you or if your life is taking another direction
Your purpose is waiting for you-it’s within you already. As Viktor Frankl said, 'Life is never made unbearable by circumstances, but only by lack of meaning and purpose.' Reflect on what truly drives you, and take small steps toward it each day.
Amazing vids man. You do this well! great visuals, but and also great subjects and well put. Simple, and profound. I wonder how you came to the point of wanting to make videos about these subjects :) I guess we all struggle with the same things.
Hey; just a thought. Would you ever be down for a group hike and meditation meet up? I’m sure a lot of people would love that and be able to meet others on their journey and share stories. Could be a great mechanism for change.
i am getting into video and your videos are my standard for beautiful shots in nature. have you considered making a video or maybe a blog post going into how you make it look like that? in terms of WB, ISO, shutter speed etc. btw the link to your LUT doesn't work, i had to manually search on your website. thanks justin
What is your purpose?
One of my purposes is commenting “Nice”
Hard question, my friend.

To share the truth about the corruption in this world.

to make music.

When the world needed him most, he returned
felt this one too
peace and love
Nice to have you back!

"Ruthless, and intentional experimentation." That's the key right there.
I could watch this video on mute and still be stunned by the composition and cinematography. amazing work
we love visuals
HE'S BACK BABY. Love it. Absolutely fired up on this. Thank you!
oh hell yea baby we back!
You are something of a yogi, a saint, a monk, but more so, just an honest man. Which is its own beautiful thing.
This feels like a waking meditation, or at least, adjacent to it. Such a fan. Seriously, you are making art.
One of the channels that I actually get excited when they post
bless roccooo
This episode is beautiful man. You're very good at composition, something very hard to be good at. Kudos man.
Thank you Marcus!
your videos are the most inspiring & intentional pieces of art that I've seen on TH-cam. Thank you for creating. Glad you're back.
much love for this comment dylan
I always love the vibe of your videos. Great message as always

I think I've got mine: connecting with people and hoping I leave something with them to think about or get inspiration from
love it dude!
life is so magnificent. i can’t just stick w one purpose. there is so much to live and be grateful for. i sometimes feel that my purpose is to spend time w my family while i can. idk. other days my purpose feels something else. this inconsistency hopefully wont fw me to the path to mastery ( or should i say masteries!)
its ok to have as many purposes as you want! enjoy!
Welcome back!

welcome back sensei
Glad to see you back, tough i wonder to myself if being attached to content isn't itself a bad thing, but nevertheless, i enjoy what you produce
I'll keep in mind that last phrase, "The meaning of life is to give life a meaning"
love that quote
Spectacular looking shots.
we can thank mother earth for providing the locations
I think the hardest part of purpose is that it is changing and you need to constantly be aware of if it is still working for you or if your life is taking another direction
yes! its important to flow with a changing vision
you baack baby
glad you're back our distance digital friend
thanks my fellow keyboard warrior!
Yeaah, haha this weekend I thought about you! Where you've been? Hope all is well. You're one of a kind Justin.
Brilliant!
Another banger!
bang bang!
The humor in these videos hits different (:
humor is key :)
Do you see yourself doing this forever? Is this your purpose? Or is your path changing? Cos whatever the answer, it’s okay!
Been waiting for a drop bro.
its here!
Been thinking of you Justin
much love cocapt!
@justinmonarch means a lot Justin ❤️

“when will the monarch journal release another video?” I was thinking today... what a coincidence.

divine timing!
We noticed , and missed you
Nice to see you back...and yes, I did notice you've been absent ☺
We noticed!
much love for you
Your purpose is waiting for you-it’s within you already.

Months off, but still the goat

Nice quality

I missed you!

Finally!
Extra Nice 🎥
extra butter!
Amazing vids man. You do this well! great visuals, but and also great subjects and well put. Simple, and profound.
I wonder how you came to the point of wanting to make videos about these subjects :) I guess we all struggle with the same things.
it was a merging of a passion for filmmaking and a passion for philosophy and self improvement. Took years to nail down the concept but here we are!
Hey; just a thought. Would you ever be down for a group hike and meditation meet up? I’m sure a lot of people would love that and be able to meet others on their journey and share stories. Could be a great mechanism for change.
i have waited for a new video
funny coincidence today i was thinking about yout channel wondering when was the last upload. thats crazy.
divine timing!
i am getting into video and your videos are my standard for beautiful shots in nature. have you considered making a video or maybe a blog post going into how you make it look like that? in terms of WB, ISO, shutter speed etc. btw the link to your LUT doesn't work, i had to manually search on your website. thanks justin
