This is exactly how I feel. Getting by day to day but not feeling the depths of joy I have felt before. Thank you for making me realise I am not alone 🙏
Too many of us are alone. 68 here. Children and grands are not near me, one sibling left. She's far away. Not much of a real support system around, no spouse, no special relationship. I work, because I help people, there is satisfaction knowing I lead them on the right path. I'm blessed!
But what is the point, when we die anyway? (I’m old, and have had many experiences which were bad, in different ways, including lifelong emotional abuse. It feels cumulative, that I’m at saturation point, and I don’t have the energy - physical, mental, emotional - to try to reach for things that feel so far out of reach, when I’m going to die anyway. I know, everyone does. And yes, I see my (very helpful) doctor. Everyone I love has gone. I’m happy to be solitary: people trigger anxiety(had a stroke and it’s affected me in several ways) I miss my husband more than ever, after ten years… he was the only one who ever loved me unconditionally. There are so many things I am now unable to do, due to my health. I don’t feel sorry for myself; I just don’t see the point in anything
Same here. Mid 60’s & just not feeling any joy. Health issues are a part of it for me but also the state of the world on so many levels. It seems very widespread these days & I really feel for the younger generation.

I was forced to retire 7 months ago. I was ready to do away with the stress caused by my job, but not ready to lose my identity and convert from a savings mentality to a spending mentality. My daily routine doesn't' mean much anymore and has no purpose. I'm barely motivated to get things done but have no energy, then I beat myself up at the end of the day because I didn't accomplish anything. Hitting the reset button is taking a lot longer than I had imagined. Great video.

At 76 life was becoming a drag. The hum drum blues. A motorcycle gave me back my excitement for life. Got me off of the couch and getting out of the rut I've been in.
Hi im 67 with a wife who i love but her health is not good,i also have my mum who is 94 and she needs help with lots of things.I ride a motorcycle with a group and i really look forward to every Wednesday,s ride.
I've felt like this for over 20 years just functioning not living, not embracing life, not enioying, just letting the days slip away until the ultimate sleep of eternity.
This video is so relatable to me like it is to other commenters. I am a male, 67, and retired. I used to have so much awe and wonder in the past and now it's all gone. I used to thirst for adventure and travel but I don't feel like doing any of it now. I don't know what my problem is. There are suggestions made to overcome but it's so easy to make suggestions than it is to go and do it. Maybe some kind of damage happened to my brain which could be a cause of it. Plus the world doesn't seem to be as nice as it used to be; even though the world was never totally nice in the first place. Lots of hostility around, division, and feeling unsafe to get out there. And the quality of services are not as good and caring as it used to be. Either things have gone downhill or they haven't - it's just that I'm more sensitive and aware.
The world has in fact become darker. I am also retired and have started to focus on the afterlife. I have researched that subject extensively and the evidence is overwhelming. Try reading books by R Craig Hogan or Michael Tymn on the afterlife It has helped me a lot
I can relate to this ,life has changed very much for me I celebrated my 60th birthday this year but I aiim to get back on track but find different ways ,much love and happiness to you all 💗
I understand how you are feeling. My only advice is to start small.... Do small nice things for yourself which are achievable. Do anything creative which remotely interests you and do things for others, which will improve their existence and that will give you a sense of meaning and fulfillment. Wishing you joy in the future.
Oh! Thank you so much. I have been feeling this way and have been afraid of what to do. Did I even want to be here? It all felt so meaningless! I have been meditating ALOT (Tibetan healing bowls on youtube), knitting, and going to yoga. These have been helping me to relax right now. After watching this video, I don't feel so alone anymore. Thank you!!
I was thinking of how I have lost my mojo . My inner strength to feel alive and vibrant . I decide to watch you tube on my TV and this beautiful piece of wisdom is staring back at me . Call it Karma call it just plain coincidence but these words really resonate with how I am feeling. The Camus quote is a perfect mantra to find that inner strength and find your light in the darkness. Sending good vibes to everyone who watched this beautiful video 🌅
Mindfulness is the gift that keeps giving,like my connection with you and I haven't met you.but I wish you well and hope,you get a lot of peace from practicing mindfulness.❤❤
I will try . . . because I remember the joy. I remember the way I used to be . . . So much has changed. I’m still here with so much to be grateful for ❣️
Yes. Ya gonna stay in that frame of mind? .......or ya gonna put on your defiance boots and NOT let those nasty memories kill you...? Yes, it IS possible!!! I'm 86. & have lived THROUGH many destructive narcissists most of the time. TIME. That's what we DO have. ...and then... Take a good look around you. Use ALL your senses. Smell the coffee. Taste the pizza. See the full moon. Touch the rose bud. Hear the birds.... THAT'S THE ANSWER AND YOU BEGIN AGAIN..THAT'S YOUR NEW START...free of 'chains'.
I simply don't know how I could deal with my late challenges without knowing this channel. Thank you so much, friend. You are a guiding light amidst dark times. 🙏🏻
I've felt like this for so many years. I remember having a childlike wonder once, even into my adulthood, but it's been so many years since I felt that, and I miss it. Thank you for this. It's time for me to work to get that back, and past time. I will listen to this again, several more times, and I'll also share it to others who need it.
So many of us with these feelings, my Heart goes out to each and everyone of you in the comments, God Bless everyone and thank you for the very insightful video ❤
What a relief to come across this. The 1st part of this video exactly describes How I felt for at least the past 2 years. And I can't seem to get myself past it. Everything changed, I lost everything. And I can't see to get back to where I was or move forward. Thank you for this.
Wow. So many comments people left that summarizes how I am functioning and feel about life. Listening to your video brought that out in us, very theraputic. Now the challenge is to implement the solutions, and you gave us some direction. Thank you!
You expressed perfectly how I've been feeling . Thank you for also sharing ways to find joy in the midst of the challenges of daily living. It helped lift my spirits.
Thank you! This video is WONDERFUL...especially, towards the end! AT 86 years I need such information as I can about how to 'proceed to the end'... I chose balance in my daily life--which is all I have, 'in the moment'. Chosing to view things from a positive point of view has already helped immensely.
This is a most wonderful monolog, such beautiful and helpful words, I have taken note and will endeavour to apply them to my retirement alone, thank you so much. May our Creator God be praised!
I loved the analogy of building walls to protect ourselves. It’s so true that while it can shield us from pain, it can also block out joy. Finding that balance is key! Thank you for this enlightening perspective. 🙏
Thank you. I begged God for help this morning and your video was what I got. It's so good to know we are not alone and must oft remind ourselves. This too shall pass. Blessings and comfort to all.
God has nothing to do with it. The universe is indifferent. The guy posted a video and u found it online. It is not any deeper than that. There’s no “ supernatural or mystical “ reason you found this video. You turned on your computer and there is is cause he posted it.

I've lived with depression for many years. Where there is life.... This always stops me from checking out. I wish for hope everyday. Thank you for describing me
Thank you for making this video. You describe me perfectly and I admit, the video made me cry. To know I am not alone gives me great hope. Perhaps now I will find my internal summer. ❤❤❤
Thank you .. this is a thought provoking and reset button to anyone who is stuck a little . It's a positive nudge forward. We all stumble at times . That beautiful spiritual awakening when we question . It's a reassurance that we are where we are supposed to be .. Thank you 🙏🏼
My humble advice to anyone feeling this way (not that I don't sometimes) is to take yourself out of the center of your universe and try doing something for someone else who feels this way. Try putting joy in somebody else's life. It will make you feel good!
Well fair play to ye as family unit.both my parents are deceased . Dad passed in 1990 and mam in 2020. It was an honour and a previlige to tend to mams need. She never complained about anthing bless her.even though your parents seem ungratefull now.but our parents are a precios gift and in the cycle of life. Parents care for us when we are young and we care for them when they are old. Thats what we would say to our mam,she had dementia,she could be lucid too though. You are doing a great job,it may not feel that way. But God will bless you.i dont meant to sound condecending or anything but hopefully giving you a new slant or perspective. You will miss your parents when they depart this life, and the feeling of that you did your best for them,and never have to feel guilty or regretful.God less your family and just keep giving and loving them.❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏
Mate! This resonated with me so much. I've never left a comment before! But had too now. So glad I am not alone. Thank you from the depths of my soul 👊🏽
It is comforting to know that I’m not alone in my struggle. But I would have loved to hear about some tools I could use to get out of my current situation. Real tools.
Vor 3 Monaten habe ich die Vipassana Meditation entdeckt und möchte nicht mehr drauf verzichten. Ein Silberstreif am Horizont, der mit jedem Üben heller wird. Allerdings braucht es Disziplin und Geduld 😊
Everything you stated is completely true. This is not my personal condition, but, I mean in general for all of us who live now in the first quarter of the 21st century!
You described exactly my situation. I am finding I have avoided people in a personal way. Never showing feelings. Things are starting to loosen up now and I can see where I am weak. It's ok.
I'm here right now.... This year is my 30th year in Martial Arts, and it's all I was good at in my life, and I'm only 37. I feel like at 37, I should still be striving and competing, but I just feel dead, numb, I've no get up and go, and it hurts. I can't trust anyone, and I'm all alone in this world. I'm praying that I can get out of this dark hole I'm in 🙏
I understand this feeling all too well. As an artist, I’ve reached a point of exhaustion. Life has worn me down, and I no longer feel the inspiration or passion to create. It seems like I face creative blocks everywhere I turn. I feel drained. I haven’t desired intimacy in years and have been single for a long time. I’m tired of life and people in general. I just don’t have the energy to keep trying anymore. In strong but exhausted. It feels like nothing I do works anymore and life has beaten me down
After watching your video, I feel a bit less alone in my feelings. My inner summer has been hard to find. But what can I do, besides enduring? Keep looking for it! After all, life is a precious gift, even when it doesn’t feels like it at all.
thank you for this l have and still am in a very dark time in my life you explain the feelings very well and l can see by reading the comments here so many of us are struggling, l am sure a lot of it is due to the last 4 years that has now caused ptsd, and yes to find the small wonders of joy in everyday life that we forget to see especially when we are stuck in the dark tunnel, but most importantly it is finding the inner sanctuary within ourselves that is our beautiful light that can lead us through all struggles with ease and grace when we trust in ourselves to do so and open our heart to feel and experience life in totality but remain balanced within, it's a long slow process to attain this but not impossible and l am on the road to recovery and liberation, l wish all of you that are struggling the same too ❤
Thank you, Wendy! Yep. Well said. I'm coming slowly out of a 10 year dark time. That's tough; I'm 86. But! I believe each of us CAN survive & even thrive. I send you the blessings of understanding.
I feel that I've been in the mode of not enjoying life for most of my life. Sometimes I remember how it was to be happy, or even interested. I'd like to find something to do that would reawaken interest in life again... Feels like lately everything in the world seems to be beating all the joy out of being.
Thanks a million for this easy to grasp and understand video,l like many,this video explains me and my life very accurately,I wish for every single person who is suffering or struggling,peace, health ,joy and freedom
A lovely and loving video. My grandson is suffering from depression, and many of the things you said in here might help console and encourage him. Just sent him the link. Thank you so much.
I’ve been in an existential crisis state for upwards of 15 years. I’ve been trying to find my way back for the last 10 of them. I’ve tried everything you suggested in this video. So far, a smattering of decent days, but no joy.
Ehrlich gesagt glaube ich dass die Fähigkeit, Freude im äußeren Leben zu empfinden, aus einem bestimmten Grund nachlässt: damit wir lernen, Freude in unserem Inneren zu entdecken, zu finden und zum Wachsen zu bringen. Ab einem gewissen Zeitpunkt befinden wir uns einfach auf dem Heimweg
Dude, hi - thanks for doing this video. ❤ people describe me as someone who lives life to the fullest, but I know I'm numb. Also, interestingly, seeing here, the others who feel the same, is calming...
You have .you are still here.thats an achievement in itself.you are made in the image of God. Keep plodding on. Practice gratitude for all you have. I will pray 🙏 for you and send love to u❤❤❤
Absolutely amazing. I've never doubted the universe, but I certainly marvel at it and what it puts in my path. Thank you for your video. I am a new subscriber.
Yup, describes what I am going through, now that I am with an abusive narcissist. I used to have a happy marriage with my first husband, who died….so I know what a happy relationship looks like.
Leave now, any other sort of life will be better. Take your family with you if they are there too. Seek immediate assistance. I've been through this, it's tough but needs to be done. Best of luck.
Thank you, this describes me for the last two years (probably many more than that). I thought the loss of one of my best friends and my Grandma within a month of each other had broken me. I still feel broken. In the beginning I accepted the overwhelming feelings of numbness, thinking it would pass with time, but it hasn't. I don't want to work, I have abandoned my hobbies, I have abandoned and rejected my friends. I know it's not right or good or healthy and I try to pull myself out of this "state of mind" but I have failed up to now. Your video renosates (sp) with me, now i just have to listen again to find the answers I am sure are in there also. Thank you, every step helps, I just want to find myself again.
The Fact is that when you realize who you are and what your role is here you look at yourself and life EXTREMELY different 😊 Specially if you know ❤FATHER ❤
I felt this right through my 20s and 30s, it was ups ( getting married, having kids ) and downs ( debt, mortgage, responsibilities ). The times I was happiest as a child were when me, my mum and dad woud go on camping trips, taking photos, enjoyng the journeys more than the destinations. The soundtrack of my 1970s was 50s and 60s guitar music played on an 8-track. So when I hit my early 40s i did something, I took up photography and I rediscovered how much I loved journeys, seeing places I'd not seen in 30 years, how they changed how I loved the solitude to just be left alone to create and capture. I felt like I had a tool to help be harness my inner wild nature, help me understand where I had come from all those years ago. It worked, whenever I feel like life is so down on me I have the weekend to look forward to, jump in the car at 3am on a Sunday morning, drive 100 miles to nowhere listening to my ambient music, arrive before dawn , watch and capture the day beginning. I'm in complete control of this simple activity, I dream all the way there of the perfect shot, I arrive and it doesn't matter if it happens or not, I'm just there in my own world and completely in control of me and what I do, just like I was all those years ago.
Oddly enough (or not😂) it was cultivation a degree on non attachment to things and the outcome of events, and trust that the universe knows what to provide us in order to grow, that enabled me to laugh again at the ups and downs of this quite insane roller coaster we call life. Love to all ❤
Feeling like everything is just duty and responsibility. Even Faith, no joy. Left church Sunday because the modern music and pounding drumbeat was awful. Just to me though, i guess. Feels like nothing to look forward to. I'm 66. Must change my thinking, somehow. Nice to know im not alone in this.
I am burnt out, tired of life. No energy or interest to even try anymore. One day runs into the next. My world has got smaller. Even if I do get invited somewhere I say yes then end up cancelling. Seeing all the comments so many people feel the same. I do try to count my blessings and be thankful. I have read so much about how get past this but as tomwilliams said in his comment, doing it is another thing.
you told my story I am 52 and becoming idifferen to people, relations and friends. I no longer enjoy things I am working but to sustain and make my retirement secure with savings. I know without money I will be not able to have good life. I do follow Vipassana meditation but still feel I want to be engaged and enjoy wordly pleasures. I feel mundane and useless some times just exist.
Just what I needed I was wondering why life had become so jaded and joyless… 60 years old looking back wondering where the spark has gone! I can see light at the end of the tunnel now!
This is exactly how I feel. Getting by day to day but not feeling the depths of joy I have felt before. Thank you for making me realise I am not alone 🙏
You are not alone. Strength, Sister
Passions ignited can fuel your joy back .....if u truly want it
Too many of us are alone. 68 here. Children and grands are not near me, one sibling left. She's far away. Not much of a real support system around, no spouse, no special relationship. I work, because I help people, there is satisfaction knowing I lead them on the right path. I'm blessed!

This video is so relatable to me like it is to other commenters. I am a male, 67, and retired. I used to have so much awe and wonder in the past and now it's all gone. I used to thirst for adventure and travel but I don't feel like doing any of it now. I don't know what my problem is. There are suggestions made to overcome but it's so easy to make suggestions than it is to go and do it.
Maybe some kind of damage happened to my brain which could be a cause of it. Plus the world doesn't seem to be as nice as it used to be; even though the world was never totally nice in the first place. Lots of hostility around, division, and feeling unsafe to get out there. And the quality of services are not as good and caring as it used to be. Either things have gone downhill or they haven't - it's just that I'm more sensitive and aware.
The world has in fact become darker. I am also retired and have started to focus on the afterlife. I have researched that subject extensively and the evidence is overwhelming. Try reading books by R Craig Hogan or Michael Tymn on the afterlife
It has helped me a lot
I'm 65 and agree with everything you've said 😢
100% agree, I'm 57 and feel the same.
I can relate to this ,life has changed very much for me I celebrated my 60th birthday this year but I aiim to get back on track but find different ways ,much love and happiness to you all 💗
I understand how you are feeling.
My only advice is to start small....
Do small nice things for yourself which are achievable. Do anything creative which remotely interests you and do things for others, which will improve their existence and that will give you a sense of meaning and fulfillment.
Wishing you joy in the future.
Oh! Thank you so much. I have been feeling this way and have been afraid of what to do. Did I even want to be here? It all felt so meaningless! I have been meditating ALOT (Tibetan healing bowls on youtube), knitting, and going to yoga. These have been helping me to relax right now. After watching this video, I don't feel so alone anymore. Thank you!!
I was thinking of how I have lost my mojo . My inner strength to feel alive and vibrant . I decide to watch you tube on my TV and this beautiful piece of wisdom is staring back at me . Call it Karma call it just plain coincidence but these words really resonate with how I am feeling. The Camus quote is a perfect mantra to find that inner strength and find your light in the darkness. Sending good vibes to everyone who watched this beautiful video 🌅
Herzlichen Dank und ich sende Segen für dich zurück
The mundane life changes into a magical one by living in the moment. Thank you for this message ❤❤
Mindfulness is the gift that keeps giving,like my connection with you and I haven't met you.but I wish you well and hope,you get a lot of peace from practicing mindfulness.❤❤
I will try . . . because I remember the joy. I remember the way I used to be . . . So much has changed. I’m still here with so much to be grateful for ❣️
06:28 Rediscovering joy through small changes is exactly what I needed to hear. Thanks for the encouragement!
I’m still waiting to turn this emptiness into happiness.. Being numb is all I know..A horrible childhood does this..
I'm so sorry, I understand your pain.
Yes. Ya gonna stay in that frame of mind? .......or ya gonna put on your defiance boots
and NOT let those nasty memories kill you...?
Yes, it IS possible!!! I'm 86. & have lived THROUGH many destructive narcissists most of the time. TIME. That's what we DO have. ...and then...
Take a good look around you. Use ALL your senses. Smell the coffee. Taste the pizza. See the full moon. Touch the rose bud. Hear the birds....
THAT'S THE ANSWER AND YOU BEGIN AGAIN..THAT'S YOUR NEW START...free of 'chains'.
You are not alone. I am on the same boat.
I simply don't know how I could deal with my late challenges without knowing this channel. Thank you so much, friend. You are a guiding light amidst dark times. 🙏🏻
I've felt like this for so many years. I remember having a childlike wonder once, even into my adulthood, but it's been so many years since I felt that, and I miss it. Thank you for this. It's time for me to work to get that back, and past time. I will listen to this again, several more times, and I'll also share it to others who need it.
So many of us with these feelings, my Heart goes out to each and everyone of you in the comments, God Bless everyone and thank you for the very insightful video ❤
💛🧡
Just remember life is very short and enjoy every minute of it. Less is more, belongings are just stuff. Be kind to animals!
It is a short journey. And while we may not enjoy each minute, to be star-stuff made conscious is a remarkable thing…
I love that inner strength is the invicible summer, so beautiful.
I also appreciate the beauty of winter !
@@intrax2tvwinter sure brings the time of self reflections, while summer brings forth times of growths.....
What a relief to come across this. The 1st part of this video exactly describes How I felt for at least the past 2 years. And I can't seem to get myself past it. Everything changed, I lost everything. And I can't see to get back to where I was or move forward. Thank you for this.
The Invincible Summer, yeah I can relate...I like that - the warmth of the sun...energy and hopefulness.
Wow. So many comments people left that summarizes how I am functioning and feel about life. Listening to your video brought that out in us, very theraputic. Now the challenge is to implement the solutions, and you gave us some direction. Thank you!
You expressed perfectly how I've been feeling . Thank you for also sharing ways to find joy in the midst of the challenges of daily living. It helped lift my spirits.
Thank you! This video is WONDERFUL...especially, towards the end! AT 86 years I need such information as I can about how to 'proceed to the end'... I chose balance in my daily life--which is all I have, 'in the moment'.
Chosing to view things from a positive point of view has already helped immensely.
This video and your words are exactly what I needed in this precise moment of my life. Thank you. God bless you. 😊
This is a most wonderful monolog, such beautiful and helpful words, I have taken note and will endeavour to apply them to my retirement alone, thank you so much. May our Creator God be praised!
Wunderschön. So wahr. Und so wichtig für mich gerade heute. Hab Dank 💛
I loved the analogy of building walls to protect ourselves. It’s so true that while it can shield us from pain, it can also block out joy. Finding that balance is key! Thank you for this enlightening perspective. 🙏
Thank you. I begged God for help this morning and your video was what I got. It's so good to know we are not alone and must oft remind ourselves. This too shall pass. Blessings and comfort to all.
God has nothing to do with it. The universe is indifferent. The guy posted a video and u found it online. It is not any deeper than that. There’s no “ supernatural or mystical “ reason you found this video. You turned on your computer and there is is cause he posted it.
I felt like its my story you are not alone
@@Scorned405 - Good Grief !! How do you know "God has nothing to do with it"? Criticize much in daily life, too?
@@Scorned405 nie im Leben ist das Universum gleichgültig. Es ist voller kleiner und großer Wunder. Myriaden von unterschiedlichsten Tieren, Pflanzen, Sternen und alles greift ineinander und ist verwoben miteinander
I've lived with depression for many years. Where there is life.... This always stops me from checking out. I wish for hope everyday.
Thank you for describing me
Thank you for making this video. You describe me perfectly and I admit, the video made me cry.
To know I am not alone gives me great hope. Perhaps now I will find my internal summer. ❤❤❤
🌻
Thank you .. this is a thought provoking and reset button to anyone who is stuck a little . It's a positive nudge forward. We all stumble at times . That beautiful spiritual awakening when we question . It's a reassurance that we are where we are supposed to be .. Thank you 🙏🏼
Ebenso danke für deinen schönen Kommentar 😊
My humble advice to anyone feeling this way (not that I don't sometimes) is to take yourself out of the center of your universe and try doing something for someone else who feels this way. Try putting joy in somebody else's life. It will make you feel good!
It is good to help others, but when you're stuck, you freeze, and just can't do it.
This is.....absolutely.....spot on....
I was astonished with this video - it’s pitch perfect and every single word spoke to me deeply. Thank you.
Well fair play to ye as family unit.both my parents are deceased . Dad passed in 1990 and mam in 2020. It was an honour and a previlige to tend to mams need. She never complained about anthing bless her.even though your parents seem ungratefull now.but our parents are a precios gift and in the cycle of life. Parents care for us when we are young and we care for them when they are old. Thats what we would say to our mam,she had dementia,she could be lucid too though. You are doing a great job,it may not feel that way. But God will bless you.i dont meant to sound condecending or anything but hopefully giving you a new slant or perspective. You will miss your parents when they depart this life, and the feeling of that you did your best for them,and never have to feel guilty or regretful.God less your family and just keep giving and loving them.❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏
Mate! This resonated with me so much. I've never left a comment before! But had too now. So glad I am not alone. Thank you from the depths of my soul 👊🏽
This was so powerful. It spoke to me in so many ways. Thank you. And I LOVE your narration. It doesn't sound like an AI voice. I feel uplifted.
It is comforting to know that I’m not alone in my struggle. But I would have loved to hear about some tools I could use to get out of my current situation. Real tools.
Vor 3 Monaten habe ich die Vipassana Meditation entdeckt und möchte nicht mehr drauf verzichten. Ein Silberstreif am Horizont, der mit jedem Üben heller wird. Allerdings braucht es Disziplin und Geduld 😊
Everything you stated is completely true.
This is not my personal condition, but, I mean in general for all of us who live now in the first quarter of the 21st century!
That first part made me cry, finally someone said what ive been feeling going through my Spiritual Transformation. Thank you
You described exactly my situation. I am finding I have avoided people in a personal way. Never showing feelings. Things are starting to loosen up now and I can see where I am weak. It's ok.
I'm here right now....
This year is my 30th year in Martial Arts, and it's all I was good at in my life, and I'm only 37.
I feel like at 37, I should still be striving and competing, but I just feel dead, numb, I've no get up and go, and it hurts.
I can't trust anyone, and I'm all alone in this world.
I'm praying that I can get out of this dark hole I'm in 🙏
It's not so easy,But mostly trying to enjoy the journey and the present ❤
I understand this feeling all too well. As an artist, I’ve reached a point of exhaustion. Life has worn me down, and I no longer feel the inspiration or passion to create. It seems like I face creative blocks everywhere I turn. I feel drained. I haven’t desired intimacy in years and have been single for a long time. I’m tired of life and people in general. I just don’t have the energy to keep trying anymore. In strong but exhausted. It feels like nothing I do works anymore and life has beaten me down
After watching your video, I feel a bit less alone in my feelings. My inner summer has been hard to find. But what can I do, besides enduring? Keep looking for it! After all, life is a precious gift, even when it doesn’t feels like it at all.
thank you for this l have and still am in a very dark time in my life you explain the feelings very well and l can see by reading the comments here so many of us are struggling, l am sure a lot of it is due to the last 4 years that has now caused ptsd, and yes to find the small wonders of joy in everyday life that we forget to see especially when we are stuck in the dark tunnel, but most importantly it is finding the inner sanctuary within ourselves that is our beautiful light that can lead us through all struggles with ease and grace when we trust in ourselves to do so and open our heart to feel and experience life in totality but remain balanced within, it's a long slow process to attain this but not impossible and l am on the road to recovery and liberation, l wish all of you that are struggling the same too ❤
Thank you, Wendy! Yep. Well said. I'm coming slowly out of a 10 year dark time. That's tough; I'm 86. But! I believe each of us CAN survive & even thrive. I send you the blessings of understanding.
I feel that I've been in the mode of not enjoying life for most of my life. Sometimes I remember how it was to be happy, or even interested. I'd like to find something to do that would reawaken interest in life again... Feels like lately everything in the world seems to be beating all the joy out of being.
Pink Floyd's Comfortably Numb comes to mind!😢❤
Also, Mad World by Tears for Fears? "Went to school and I was very Nervous"
Thanks a million for this easy to grasp and understand video,l like many,this video explains me and my life very accurately,I wish for every single person who is suffering or struggling,peace, health ,joy and freedom
There's so much suffering in the world today. For most first world countries, life has not been very enjoyable or satisfying since 2020.
A lovely and loving video. My grandson is suffering from depression, and many of the things you said in here might help console and encourage him. Just sent him the link. Thank you so much.
Thank you. Your videos always help me , especially if I am in a hard space! God bless.....😊❤😊
Thankyou 💖 for helping so many people, Bless you 🙏🏼
I have lots of joy . But, it's good to know how it feels not to have joy. My love yo those with out joy.
I have become numb. Void of even caring anymore. It's sad, but I don't even look at the world or my life with any excitement anymore
Thanks. A very profound and timely perspective on what we humans face in our lives. I needed to hear this.
I’ve been in an existential crisis state for upwards of 15 years. I’ve been trying to find my way back for the last 10 of them. I’ve tried everything you suggested in this video. So far, a smattering of decent days, but no joy.
Ehrlich gesagt glaube ich dass die Fähigkeit, Freude im äußeren Leben zu empfinden, aus einem bestimmten Grund nachlässt: damit wir lernen, Freude in unserem Inneren zu entdecken, zu finden und zum Wachsen zu bringen. Ab einem gewissen Zeitpunkt befinden wir uns einfach auf dem Heimweg
Do you know about self inquiry?
2 years ago, I would have skipped right by this, but I innerstand every word as it resonates within my soul. Thank you
Fascinating,wisdom to keep the inner light to navigate through the ups and downs of life.thanks for sharing such profound wisdom.
Very powerful video, full of truth and hope!!
Thank you so much!❤❤❤
This was perfect! I’m in this exact situation now…. Thank you for such a great video 🌹
Very interesting and very true. And helpful thanks
This video has helped me in more ways than can be explained here. Thank you very much!!
Dude, hi - thanks for doing this video. ❤ people describe me as someone who lives life to the fullest, but I know I'm numb. Also, interestingly, seeing here, the others who feel the same, is calming...
We are sold the idea everyone is living a fulfilling life except us. No wonder so many of us are miserable.
Man you out did yourself in this i felt this on a deeper level you my good sir earn yourself a new subscriber keep up the Good work!!
The right video message at just the right time , Thank you !
Struggling with this … wish I had the strength to overcome and conquer.
You have .you are still here.thats an achievement in itself.you are made in the image of God. Keep plodding on. Practice gratitude for all you have. I will pray 🙏 for you and send love to u❤❤❤
I agree with @Carmeldeery.
Absolutely amazing. I've never doubted the universe, but I certainly marvel at it and what it puts in my path. Thank you for your video. I am a new subscriber.
Yup, describes what I am going through, now that I am with an abusive narcissist. I used to have a happy marriage with my first husband, who died….so I know what a happy relationship looks like.
Leave now, any other sort of life will be better. Take your family with you if they are there too. Seek immediate assistance. I've been through this, it's tough but needs to be done. Best of luck.
Tu dir das nicht an. Zieh deine Aufmerksamkeit ab von ihm und schenke sie dir selbst
This video was refreshingly reassuring. Thank you 🙏🏽
Thank you, this describes me for the last two years (probably many more than that). I thought the loss of one of my best friends and my Grandma within a month of each other had broken me. I still feel broken. In the beginning I accepted the overwhelming feelings of numbness, thinking it would pass with time, but it hasn't. I don't want to work, I have abandoned my hobbies, I have abandoned and rejected my friends. I know it's not right or good or healthy and I try to pull myself out of this "state of mind" but I have failed up to now. Your video renosates (sp) with me, now i just have to listen again to find the answers I am sure are in there also. Thank you, every step helps, I just want to find myself again.
This couldn't possibly be more me right now for the past two years.
The Fact is that when you realize who you are and what your role is here you look at yourself and life EXTREMELY different 😊
Specially if you know ❤FATHER ❤
This is so relatable to how i feel right now. Subscribed. ❤
Thank you for such a beautiful description of how we walk the tightrope of life. This is one I'll take notes on and share with others.
Very right, there is always another way !
Good insights, it really is ALL about balance.
I like stoicism!❤
This video is well worth listening to more than once!
When I constantly bumping up against hatred. I lost hope.
I felt this right through my 20s and 30s, it was ups ( getting married, having kids ) and downs ( debt, mortgage, responsibilities ). The times I was happiest as a child were when me, my mum and dad woud go on camping trips, taking photos, enjoyng the journeys more than the destinations. The soundtrack of my 1970s was 50s and 60s guitar music played on an 8-track.
So when I hit my early 40s i did something, I took up photography and I rediscovered how much I loved journeys, seeing places I'd not seen in 30 years, how they changed how I loved the solitude to just be left alone to create and capture. I felt like I had a tool to help be harness my inner wild nature, help me understand where I had come from all those years ago. It worked, whenever I feel like life is so down on me I have the weekend to look forward to, jump in the car at 3am on a Sunday morning, drive 100 miles to nowhere listening to my ambient music, arrive before dawn , watch and capture the day beginning.
I'm in complete control of this simple activity, I dream all the way there of the perfect shot, I arrive and it doesn't matter if it happens or not, I'm just there in my own world and completely in control of me and what I do, just like I was all those years ago.
Joy can come through your Attitude and Gratitude for life, something people have forgotten😢
Oddly enough (or not😂) it was cultivation a degree on non attachment to things and the outcome of events, and trust that the universe knows what to provide us in order to grow, that enabled me to laugh again at the ups and downs of this quite insane roller coaster we call life. Love to all ❤
That was very encouraging
Feeling like everything is just duty and responsibility. Even Faith, no joy. Left church Sunday because the modern music and pounding drumbeat was awful. Just to me though, i guess. Feels like nothing to look forward to. I'm 66. Must change my thinking, somehow. Nice to know im not alone in this.
Hope you are ok ...im going thru something similar ...its like nothing excites me .. hopefully its just a midlife thing.
Same age here. I feel the same. Bored, no real connections. Perfectly understand leaving church because the music was irritating.
spend time with some horses 🐎
In dieser Welt in dieser Zeit ist wenig Platz für Stille. Die Menschen haben vergessen wie wohltuend und ermutigend die Stille ist
I agree to everything written below! I am 72 years old.
Awesome bro..So much wisdom, so much truth in one video.. great job...highly appreciated..
I am burnt out, tired of life. No energy or interest to even try anymore. One day runs into the next. My world has got smaller. Even if I do get invited somewhere I say yes then end up cancelling. Seeing all the comments so many people feel the same. I do try to count my blessings and be thankful. I have read so much about how get past this but as tomwilliams said in his comment, doing it is another thing.
I feel exactly the same way. I know what I should be doing but actually doing it is just so difficult.
you told my story I am 52 and becoming idifferen to people, relations and friends. I no longer enjoy things I am working but to sustain and make my retirement secure with savings. I know without money I will be not able to have good life.
I do follow Vipassana meditation but still feel I want to be engaged and enjoy wordly pleasures. I feel mundane and useless some times just exist.
Keep on with keeping on
It is so true there feeling that you just can't wait till you die just to end it all each day that passes that feeling gets stronger!
Always on the right time … ❤
Just what I needed I was wondering why life had become so jaded and joyless… 60 years old looking back wondering where the spark has gone! I can see light at the end of the tunnel now!
Very much needed at this moment 😂❤
Im at the point that i go to bed not wanting to wake up
read the forbidden book Magnetic Aura on Borlest, and you'll see the secrets they're keeping from us.
Great post . Very helpful. More of this along these lines . Thanks
