      I'm also from India. Too tired of this past paced, over competitive, overwhelming world. Feels like I'm born in wrong generation. I sooooo much crave for slow and simple life, which is truly fulfilling instead of just fancy from the outside

      @raghavnarula7048 I'm from England but have a friend from India (currently living in the states). She's so modest and profound, and I think I built with her the most meaningful connection in my whole life. It must have something to do with how culturally rich India is, that builds up special people. I also love the cinema and poetry there.

    Daria, there is another profound quote from the same writer that resonates deeply:
    “Do not believe that he who seeks to comfort you lives, untroubled, among the simple and quiet words that do you good."
    "His life has much difficulty and sadness, for were it otherwise, he would never have been able to find those words.”

    i started my youtube 2 months ago as a way to escape a job and degree i hated.
    i soon became obsessed with the numbers and was constantly comparing myself to people that i looked up to. social media became a game that i just had to win.
    it was horrible and i had to remove myself from the social media "mindset" (dopamine detoxing) so that i wouldn't burn out.
    this video is so incredibly important. slow living, preventing burnout. love this so much.

    It makes me sad that so many people go through this life trying so hard "to become who they are meant to be"...and that, of course, make them think they are not, nor ever have been, who they really are. And that is a tragedy. Of course you are who you are meant to be from them moment you came into being under your mother's heart! You do not need special rutines or special whatever to "find yourself" because you are not lost. You are here. Here! Present and correct! You as wonderful, beautiful and unique as You are. Not lost. Not a version of you that need changing. Only time we are not who we are meant to be is when we are selfish, when we are wicked and lack love towards all life, but then we do things we are not meant to be doing as these things are destructive...and through that we create an imbalance in our selves and also around us...peace in the heart and soul has nothing what so ever to do with walking in nature it has everything to do with what we give to this world, with how our footprints are, something good or something bad it does not matter if we walk city streets or deep forests. As long as one does not put unselfish good into this world where it is needed the most one will never really start living. And your dreams will include all life, the best for all life not so called "self fulfillment"(And it is very possible that good will have to be done in any way but slow...)

    Since I've been watching and listening to the slow living vlogs (about a year now) I take my walks and work in my garden with a different attitude. It is really enjoyable to think back to them as I ramble through the neighborhood, fields and woods. I have decided that I feel this way because it brings me back to my childhood and that little something I had lost. In this big, wide, wonderful world there is always something new to discover about it and in doing so to discover something new about myself.

    We all want to be somewhere, somewhere grand, somewhere where we will feel good. The goals, milestones and such. "Oh if only I had that one thing, I would be happy". And it's great to have a goal and purpose. But if you run yourself dry trying to get there completely switching off your feelings, your awareness in that pursuit, you will inevitably lose a portion of your life. Being present in the moment is really hard, but really important at the same time. We default to so many things and it's not really a great thing. So staying present is essential.
    Thank you for sharing your musings. They do bring a lot of interesting thoughts!
    Beautiful video as always! Well done ❤

    • @IamDaria
      @IamDaria  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thank you so much! 🥰 I absolutely agree. We lose so much on the way, in that hectic rush to “get there”. While goals are important and I have many as well, what we do on the way is going to impact us, perhaps, even more!

  • @onepartwild
    @onepartwild 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Thank you for making such beautiful videos, Daria. I very much appreciate them, and your thoughtful musings. I love the beauty you capture in nature and in your home, as well as the perfect music you choose, and the lovely clothes you wear. There are ideals we can aspire to, even if only for short spans of time, that are well worth the effort it takes. I try to notice beauty wherever I can find it, and practice gratitude for the small things as well as the big things. Life is never perfect, but we can make perfect moments. Your scones look so delicious, by the way! I hope you were able to enjoy tea and scones in your garden with someone special.

    😊 Beautiful video, Daria! Your musings, as Nature slowly awakens from its Winter sleep, are very thought provoking, and so, they made me think about a dear Japanese friend of mine, because these concepts are an essential part of Bushido, encapsulated in the Sakura (🌸cherry tree) symbol and the wabi-sabi (appreciation of imperfections and the effects of time as beautiful signs of harmony and change). Those blooming moments (both in nature and ourselves) are the product of all the previous energy and efforts, and no matter how modest and fleeting they are, the longtime struggle to reach them is absolutely worth-while, and just as beautiful as the result itself. Holding on to their perfection would be a mistake, as it would prevent evolution and improvement: if a flower stayed frozen in time, there would never be a fruit, for instance. Perfection is sterile, it doesn't leave us room to go beyond. It's a hard lesson to learn, at least for me, as someone who holds on to beautiful places and moments till the very end, and experiences deep suffering at their disappearance or even alteration. ☺️ I'm still learning to treasure them just in my heart and memory, as I move on. But you have proven to be much wiser!! 😊👍 Oh, and thank you for letting us into your beautiful secret garden!!😍🙏😉 Have a lovely weekend! 👏👏👏🤗😘

    Start from 6:00 - this is what I cultivate /develope since 2014 year. I recommend doing this to everyone. You will realy feel better and Your minds, awareness will evolve and the consequence will be better mental health.
    I enjoy every singing bird on the tree, every tree in the forest or field, every animal in the grass, every sunrise and sunset, every warm day in the summer and every frosty sunny day in the winter, every rainy warm day full of flowers in the spring and every colorfull windy day in the autumn. Every flower and every fruit. I enjoy all of them. I enjoy every moment when I eat something and drink coffe or tea. I enjoy every time I am sittiing in Cafe with cake and tae and observing the world.
    Just enjoy every good moment of life.

    For me, spring symbolises the opposite of slowing down. I'm done with that. 😅
    I associate it with increased daylight, warmer temperatures, and the blooming of flowers, all of which can bring a sense of vitality and renewed energy. Embracing the energy of spring can inspire to pursue new activities, set fresh goals, and embrace positive changes in our lives.

    • @IamDaria
      @IamDaria  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      That is true, I agree with you! I thought about it too as I wrote this text. What I’m thinking is that Winter and Spring both have a different way of slowing us down. In winter it’s the solemn, quiet, still kind of slowness. The atmosphere that slows us down almost forcefully, making us embrace life in the same pace nature does in its sleepiest state. While in spring - just like you said - the vitality makes us feel alive, it’s the awakening, the newness, the youthful energy of it all that makes us move. But it’s the time when slowing down becomes a deliberate choice - to stop, to notice, to marvel at it all as much as you can, and then gain that movement, just as spring does, not forgetting to stop and “smell the flowers”. Miss a glance, and it all moved along too quickly. 🌷
