    You give a story to the storyless. I have grown up in London but moved to Seychelles a few years ago. Its a tiny island in the middle of the Indian Ocean. Every time I go back to my hometown, I am now struck by the overwhelming anonymity of life on the city's streets. Identity is absorbed into a vibrating mass of untold stories and broken eye contact. This video series has opened a crack onto that anonymity, giving we who have been told to fear the stranger a glimpse into their rich and varied lives.

      You have to be careful who you talk to in London, they may follow you home and butcher you. No joke.

      We have traded our humanity and have become a disconnected society in an electronic environment.
      Soulless, sadness and searching for sensationalism. This is not the kind of life our Creator intended us to live. If you choose to even call it living.

  • @rickewilde

    Incredible that a few words written by a teacher when he was a kid have resonated and stayed with him his whole life.
    You never know the effect of what you say might have on someone or how it might inspire them.

    These videos are still my favorite thing in TH-cam. I don't watch them as soon as the notification pops up. I wait for the right time to enjoy.
    I had kind of a similar experience with a teacher, also someone not easy to be around. Got goosebumps when the poet told his story.

    I love what you are doing in this series. You have a genuine inquisitiveness about you, which is cloaked with grace and empathy. I'm at once amazed at how people open up to you, and yet I'm not, if you know what I mean. Your city is my one single most favorite place in the world, and I thank you for allowing me to enjoy it vicariously.

    I am so addicted to these videos that I have only just discovered. They are amazingly put together and the conversations are always captivating, it's fascinating having a glimpse into a strangers life, knowing they go through struggles just like myself. It's actually astounding at how little views these videos have. Keep up the awesome work, you should do this across cities in the world.

    This series has made me realise how intelligent some homeless people are. There's more to some of them in their stories

    • @CeruleanAscent
      @CeruleanAscent 4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      The use of the term "homeless people" sets aside people experiencing homelessness and makes them a class in their own right. An underclass. A problem. It is a misnomer. Everyone has talent, and everyone has social capital. Everyone is interesting. Homelessness is not a destination, it is a transition. And it is not a lifestyle choice. We are all people.

    • @CeruleanAscent
      @CeruleanAscent 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The insinuation in the OP is that someone didn't realise that someone sleeping rough might be intelligent and the term 'homeless people' is used to define a class of people with hugely negative connotations, along with phrases like 'the homeless'. All quite dehumanising, really, and sets us to the task of managing problems, not people. It's great this film made someone think about people who have no accommodation differently. Homelessness should not be allowed to define anybody. You rocking up and calling me an idiot and drawing your own conclusions by your own extension of my argument (not mine) is obviously your right, but I'd respectfully suggest it makes you look both offensive and foolish.

    In fact , Pablo , your streets of London videos remind me of something that came out a few years ago. I think it was a day in the life or similar and was backed by Ridley Scott. Maybe you could edit together the best of the best in a longer version of your interviews . Who knows, maybe channel 4 might be interested.

      Psychorigide : Someone who mentally lacks flexibility, self-criticism, fantasy, and shows authoritarianism and mistrust. As he said, that's when you are kind of "imprisoned" in a set of rules and habits ( that generally come from the environment you grew up in ) and you can't tolerate anything that doesn't respect these rules or habits.
