Yess sis! Keep it up I'm rootin for you!
@thorayaa great video! It was cool to be apart of it. Remember never to trust them spiders!
Fish are ver overlooked and their suffering is not only ignored, its accepted. Bless you, Bob.
His part was so frickin' wholesome, I had so smile for the whole scene
He's one of a kind🤩
He was so pretty and a pure soul 😭 I had 5-6 fishes and I always strive to keep them alive but through experience I know what not to do.
Vegan for the voiceless 💚
👏
I think Thoraya's way of filming makes everyone look SO beautiful. Every little freckle and line tells a story about the person she's interviewing.
It's so lovely to kinda study their face and wonder what they've seen throughout their life.
Beautifully written❤️And true
I agree ❤
Hard agree. Each vid gives such colour and humanity to a complete stranger, it's such compelling viewing.
i swear i just wanted to ask how she finds all these gorgeous people. Actually its the beauty of vulnerability. of people opening up anout themselves. thats what makes us human and so beautiful!
So true ❤
I love the dude that loved cleaning fish tanks. He has an incredible vibe
His eyes are incredible
@@bellagray8837 Im wondering if maybe he was a fish in a former life, because of those eyes!!!😃
Agree! I wonder if he meant to make such an amazing fish pun when he said "it's kind of a fluke"? Ha ha. Either way, dude seems like such a sweetheart, and it's great he's making a business from his passion 🙂👍.
Lesson: everyone has a story. And don’t judge a book by its cover ❤
Facts ❤
💯
Absolutely
Well said! We all need to open our hearts to our fellow humans because most people are relatable and have a kind soul.
If the story is about how someone is trying to make up for setting fires...that book done been burned
The Woman who says poeple call her "naive" made me tear up. You can tell she's been through a lot. Her eyes tell a story. Hope she is doing good. Lots of love for her
Yeh I paused on her face at the end like a reflex, her eyes and that smile ooze history.
no deer is naive even in headlights.
I felt for her too. Wish her the best.
for real! i love her and i don’t even know them, i can tell she’s a very kind and caring person 🫶🏻
She was so relatable for me
Regards to the woman that helps victims of crime: 'those who don't have much, give the most'
it is not a shame, it is noble! ✊
She spoke to me in this video. I've been where she's been
I really am praying she changes lives xoxo
Agreed
It's always interesting hearing stories from random people I'll probably never meet. Although the world can be a cruel place, Humanity is still so beautiful.
It’s our differences that brings beauty. The world would be pretty mundane if we were all the same
Absolutely, yes. The media wants to feed us filth, but there are plenty of beautiful people. We just need to pay attention.
People you never meet seem to care more in my experience imagine if you could choose your own family Lol
And so much more powerful❤
I hope the best for Bob and his Fish Tank cleaning business. What a great dude 😎
He’s precious
"I don't want to save people; I want people to save themselves. Wow. As someone who volunteers tutoring marginalized kids, I feel like it's my word even when I'm not doing a lot. ❤
That was very powerful.🤩
I am so incredibly happy for the gentleman that found his bliss cleaning fish tanks. What an absolute dream to fall into your passion by SHOWING compassion. Happy for that guy!
He’s adorable omgosh
I relate to the girl who said "people take deer-in-headlights as naive". I read a lot, I think a lot, and I can read people well. I wouldn't trade any of it for social acceptance or for the ability to fit in.
I heard a quote once: "The hardest thing for a writer's wife to understand is that when he's staring out the window - he's working."
Don't dismiss the quiet wallflowers.They're observing and processing. They're likely some of the more interesting people you will talk to....if you can get them talking. 🙂
If the writer’s wife is also a writer or even just an introvert, I feel like it’d be very easy for her to understand in those cases ;) /lh /nm
@@EternalGalaxies Yes but then the quote would have been different - and the point missed. I actually paused before including that - thinking "how many people are going to take issue with the fact that it's a man thinking and a woman not understanding." But, the quote was what it was - and the point is still a valid one. 🙂
I was just thinking this today. I freeze up, take a while to process. but i'm seeing everyyyything.
Do you remember where you picked up that quote? It's a good one.
@@Misana It's an obscure reference: I heard it in an interview with Neil Peart - the drummer for the band Rush. He was quoting someone else. I just looked it up and found this:
"What no wife of a writer can ever understand, no matter if she lives with him for twenty years, is that a writer is working when he's staring out the window." - Burton Rascoe
I think I like Neils version better - with the "he's working" part almost like a punchline. Hope that helps.
The woman who has six grandchildren glows. I love the energy she emits through the screen.
"Except if a girl is flirting with me, that goes over my head" THE SAPPHIC ANTHEM 🏳🌈🌸✌
Yeah 😊😅❤
This little admission added to the solidarity I felt
The last woman shocked me!!! She’s a worldly woman and she just seems like a fun adventurous person!
love the fish tank guy! really reminds you that you can literally do ANYTHING like there are millions of jobs out there that you've never even heard of
“I want people to save themselves…” 🎯
onions were cut during that one
❤❤ ❤I
The girl that said people thinking she's naive... I can relate. I really pay attention to people and can read them well. They also think just because I'm helpful and kind, that that is a weakness and they can take advantage of me. Demand respect from people!
I feel this, I really do. People see my kindness and patience as something to take and run with but know that I actively chose and fought myself to be kind and patient through every last painful and harsh event that I have gone through. My kindness and patience are the few things I hold above anything else, because being cold and cruel would only turn me into the people and things that wanted me to be just like them, just so I could be miserable like them. It's okay to feel anger, it's okay to feel sadness, it's okay to feel resentment towards those that hurt or harmed you, but never lose sight of the kindness and patience you possess. That is the one thing others will envy you for that they don't have and will try and do whatever they can to bring you down to their level. As the saying goes, "Misery loves company." Be mindful of that, and as I always say, things will even out as they go along, be patient and you'll see to it that it does.
I feel this so bad, as Lana del rey puts it “they take my kindness for weakness “
@smol7224 🌿🌷🌿Beautiful comment. I have the same philosophy... WHY would I act like the person who just dumped so much negativity? Then I would be acting just like them... and I AM NOT THEM. I send light & love to them. I get out of their way... physically & emotionally... so I don't have to experience their crap. 🌿🌷🌿
TRUE, same
Wow that fish tank cleaning is so wholesome
You all say that yet eat fish lol
@@nicoleavery7238 just because I can appreciate someone's passion it doesn't mean that I share it.
Omg that guy that likes cleaning fish tanks because fish deserve a nice place to live....so pure and sweet 🥹
Bob wanting to give fish a clean home is so wholesome
I liked that one, this question makes me think on it
"I just think fish are such an underappreciated pet and they deserve to have clean tanks."
I f'kin love this guy.
"people look at me and think that i'm naive, but i've been through a lot and i notice patterns that people wouldn't think i would think."
The fish tank guy made me tear up… I did not expect that and it was as if the world was good and wholesome for a few seconds… bless him and people like him who care for underrated living beings ❤️🩹
If you look at me-nice house,fancy cars, corporate career-you wouldn’t guess that I’m a battered woman who’s divorcing a very abusive man. Neighbors,friends & even some family think that we’re the perfect couple.
You made a brave decision to leave an abusive relationship, and I know that you are a strong woman. I wish you all the best in the future, and I am sorry you had to go through this.
@@Shams396 Thank you❤️
🌿🌷🌿 Thank you, Thank you, for leaving your comment.
❤ Our minds, spirit & Selves are our super powers.
❤People need to see that others, like you, use their personal power to move away & move on.
❤ Sending best wishes & Light & Love your way. 🌿🌷🌿
@@merryworld4776 ❤️
This was so surprisingly positive!! Everyone seemed so proud and self-confident about their answers. Each person showed great growth and I appreciated that so much!!!!
I love these types of videos. They remind me that not all people are monsters and some are just actually human beings trying to live a normal life or trying to make a better person of themselves. Beautiful souls.
I think most people are that way, just humans trying to live their lives!
I also like the video's where they have to read another perons' secret. Very humbling.
As an aquarist with 6 tanks and 10+ years in the hobby bobs fish services made me very happy. Fish are amazing animals!
True, and they do not deserve being forced into a small prison, even if it is a really well-kept and clean one. If you love fish please do not keep them as pets.❤
@@koellekind As a marine biology student I can assure you that keeping fish as pets can be done very well. Fish will be happy if all their natural needs are met, such as ample space, stimulation, hideouts, adequate nutrition, scavenging hunting and to some extent possibility to mate. The fish will not feel trapped or sad if all these needs are met. I can agree that the aquarium industry can be very disgusting and harmful which is why I encourage people to buy from local, small scale breeders. But fish can most definitely be kept successfully as pets with enough knowledge and interest. I'd say you have a bigger possibility of giving fish a happy and fulfilling life in an adequate habitat than doing so for a dog or a cat
@@elixs5380You definitely know your stuff! 👏💯 I wish everyone was as good and knowledgeable as you, especially before owning fish.💙🐠🐟🩵
P.S. There’s this fish girl on CZcams (if I can remember and find her I’ll come back and comment her profile name here). Anyway, she rescues fish. I’ve seen her go to pet stores and she’ll buy the fish that are knocking on death’s door… Then she brings them home and nurses them back to health. She treats their water with the right PH/acidity, salts, and chemicals, identifies and treats their health issues, gives them adequate tanks with everything you described, all their needs and comforts are met.
Anyway, it’s so incredible to see these little fish do a 180! I’m talking about one fish was floating upside down and he was white/grey (when he was supposed to be vibrant orange. They had him in the wrong water at the store… slowly and painfully killing him 🤬🥺) and she somehow nursed that fish back to health! She’s awesome. Plus she teaches us while posting the videos. It’s great to gain the knowledge.
Cheers, to all the animal lovers!🐾🌎🥂
I love the fish tank guy, "fish are an underrated pet and deserve the best habitat" I hope his business grows and grows ❤
To that woman who helps victims of crime you'll probably never see this but you are amazing sheca t afford some things in her own life but she'll go out to help others truly beautiful ❤
The fish man, love love!!! ❤ He is so happy making fish happy. Love it!
i really relate to this question. ive been trough a lot of trauma, a lot of very horrible things were done to me as a child, and i know that people would never beleive me, and most people see me as naive and childish and oblivious to this world, but im fighting everyday to try survive in my own memories of crimes that was done to me.
❤
❤❤
❤❤❤
♥️♥️♥️♥️
Joining the empathy train and replying once more to say thank you for your vulnerability and bravery in sharing a part of your story in the comments.
Wishing you many many future moments of beauty, peace, and healing among the mental storm
The fish tank guy is awesome! I love that he wants fish to be happy and healthy 😊
The lady who had her first son when she was just 15 seems like an amazing Mother and Grandmother❤
The fish tank guy was my fav❤🐡🐠🐟
Me too! 🙋🏻♀️
💙🐟🐠🩵
The veteran girl indeed people will not know and the guy from Norway accent is perfect
We love bob cares alot for fish ❤
I love all the humble answers people have in this video
"except if a girl is flirting with me, that goes over my head" is so real
It does for me too, when guys flirt. I like some of them back but I don't tell them
Love the fish tank guy! 😂
He’s great!
These are always my favorites of yours to watch. I feel like a lot of people don’t give time to know someone and just end up judging them from their appearance. Everyone here is far too complex to just judge by their cover, everyone has a story, and personally, your videos have made me truly intrigued by the people around me. Thank you for the work you do.
“I want people to be able to save themselves”
So beautiful, true, and deep. Loved that. I feel like these days people want to be saved by others, but you are the only one who can truly save yourself. Not someone else.
I still remember things from back when I was 7 months old and older
I’m 17.
Whenever I’ve brought up memories from before my first birthday (and on my first birthday and beyond) to my grandparents and mom, they’d get shocked because they can’t remember back in their childhoods past ages 3 and 4.
Anyway, I describe my memories of my toddler days to them as vividly as they remember them happening.
I’m also on the autism spectrum and had excelled in all my school subjects-especially music and math-but ADD had made it horribly difficult to focus and keep my head in the game. I still struggle with that part, but homeschooling makes it easier than public schooling was in kindergarten through 7th grade.
I still feel super alone socially, but as I grow up more, I find it easier to connect with people who’re on the same/similar boat as I’ve been on my whole life-I’m half black, so I make up like 15% of the minority population in this town.😂
Living at the end of the road in Alaska, it’s far more challenging to find people with similar interests or hobbies, and being born on September 1st has made it hard because you have to be 5 BEFORE then to start kindergarten here. That means I have to wait till I’m 18 and a half to be able to legally graduate and go to the music school I want to go to.
I’d love a scholarship, but making progress on that road is a lot harder when you don’t have Broadway lessons of any kind-particularly for girls who are trying to learn how to belt-in a 200 mile radius of where you live.
I just have to wait and see how this plays out with me practicing as much as possible to improve.🤞🏾
Just keep the vision of your dream alive and believe in yourself, don't worry in which way you will get there, because Universe has magical ways of solving things. Just believe and feel it as if you are already there, I am sure that you will succeed in everything you wish for.
@@starrysky3414🩵💙👏💯 Perfectly said! I couldn’t agree more.
The fish guy was so unexpectedly inspirational. Respect
Hi guys. Sorry for this unnecessary comment but I've just been feeling my lowest especially today. If anyone else is struggling, I want you to know I'm down there with you even though I can't be the one to save you or save myself.. I feel so withered and so out of place. I don't know how to find myself again if I ever even had 'self' to begin with.. I wish noone else felt this alone and so inadequate as I did. It's truly a isolating feeling in this vast world.
Sorry to hear that you're struggling. I wish you love, healing, & the energy to pull yourself out of this low you're experiencing. If I can offer 1 tip that helped me, it would be to start going on daily walks. Nature is so healing and you can start with just getting 10 minutes of Sun a day and work up from there.
Same! But you are never truly alone in this vast world, and even though you may feel like you are, someone, somewhere, is feeling the same way that you are. I'm grateful that you chose to reach out, if only in the comment section of Thoraya's video. I've had many dark days, of feeling alone, too. It helps to know that we aren't alone. You are amazing and beautiful and wonderful! You are wanted and needed. You are worthy of love, kindness, respect, and all of the good things and great people in this world! Like another person said in their beautiful comment, "go for a walk in nature" There is beauty all around us. We just have to look for it. Be well and be blessed!
Trust man I've been through it of the same thing and this is what makes life fun and worth living cos of the amazing journeys we go through even if it isn't nice and the same as others
The woman in social services who also uses services - I get it. I'm homeless now but was a social worker who worked with homeless women. It's an odd experience to be on both sides of the fence, esp bc a lot of people demonize the homeless.
You'd 🤔 there would be somewhere she could get some decent clothes. Best to her.
Thoraya videos makes me fall in love with humanity over and over again
🌿🌷🌿 Yes... same here. 🎯
I hate how people treat one another...How we are so divided by money ,looks...How we struggle to be kind ...
To the FOREST FIRE dude, i assure you that mother nature has forgiven you, you were just a child, forgive that child. and to the TANK CLEANER...so great to find someone that loves fish, you are right there isnt many of them,
The last lady was funny with husbands 😂😂
aww the fish guy is so cute
I've always wanted fish tank full of fish
the fish tank reply was beautiful.
The third girl explaining how her brain works, and how she can read people so well because of trauma resonates so much with me. I love this videos
Shoutout to the community resource worker for naming a challenge that some many of us our shamed into not admitting or go into debt to avoid. We need you! So many narcissist personalities are in recovery or community work for all the wrong reasons. So nice to hear someone that isn’t a “hero” but realistically wants to support others while humbling admitting you need the same services. This work deserves better pay!
I would hire Bob in a heart beat! I can feel his love for the fish thru his energy. That’s the kind of love you want put into your pets. ❤
I really liked this! I am always amazed at how you can get folks to open up so completely.
The girl who is seen as a deer in headlights seems like she might be a Highly Sensitive Person.
There's nothing i hate more than people who start fires in forests... but you got to have respect for a person who has put action (not just words) into redeeming himself. Keep going!
Also the fish guy - love that! You're right, fish deserve to have a nice home too. Thats cool man.
The second woman seems very sweet!! Helping other people to save themselves is awesome!! ❤
"unless a girls flirting with me" i chuckled
This video made me realize that there’s still good people in the world.
Please can someone tell the second guy to forgive himself ~ he's doing more than enough to right his childhood mistakes... more than most would do...
The Bob fishtank services guy was so sweet. Found his calling and went for it. You love to see it.
I don't get shocked to learn anything about people. Everyone has amazing stories and it's just a matter of asking and being open to listening.
What I don't understand is how some can be cruel or close-minded to people without truly knowing anything about them and just based on their appearance.
These videos are so beautifully human!!🌍💖
protect that man advocating for pet fish
Love this concept. Nice to have the variety of how heavy the topics are, this was perfect for today. ❤
My favorite thing about this channel is you learn not to judge a book by it's cover.
The fish tank guy, so wholesome and such a needed role!! ☺️
That person who said bc they space out and look like a deer in the headlights so people think they’re naive…. I resonate with everything that they said
The fish guy
Very interesting….I’ve always been fascinated by the fact that every single person has something surprising about them you would never guess by looking at them. Everyone has a secret, uniquely beautiful story.
When ever I see a big crowd of people sometimes I kinda just think to myself how amazing it is that every single one of them has had there ups and downs worrys happy times etc, its interesting how in your own mind you can get sometimes and it feels great to be able to realize that sometimes
I was just washing another video from you and a new pop up with this new video appeared! Such a nice way to start the day!!!!
The fish tank guy!!!! He’s so awesome!!!!
Very moved by the first 2 gentlemen, and the second young woman, I relate - my childhood was intense and I recognize red flags in people incredibly quickly, love the self-awareness of sports guy, much respect for the multi-lingual guy, bravo for weight loss guy,
I remember crying when my goldfish died. I called him "Fishy". I didnt flush him down the toilet, I brought him to a little stream nearby and let him float to his heavenly place.
that dude that started the forrest fires will probably never be able to make up for the net loss of what he did as a kid, thats super sad.
"I'm not trying to save people, I want people to save themselves" is deep
The final woman made me smile. Her energy is so genuine and infectious! And a beautiful reminder that we are all children of the world. Russian, Ukrainian, Chinese, American, Canadian.... we are human first and foremost ❤
She’s a collector of husbands too haha Just kiiidin
Interesting question to pose, Thoraya. I often listen to Utube in the background whilst doing other things, but with these I like to give them 100% of my attention, so I can take in the lovely faces of the contributors. People are so sweet, and so impressive.
This was so beautiful. Especially the first ones
Thank you for putting captions.
The guy who is making amends for the forest fires.. You can see the remorse in his eyes. So great he is working to set things right and learn from his childhood mistakes.
To the boy with the fishes🐟🐟, thanks for taking care of them ❤ i love you youu
Me too. This is a good question makes me think
incredible. I absolutely love this
Its easier to blend in than stand out...that got me
I absolutely love this channel. I love seeing real people being themselves
I love these types of videos, it always shows how we assume of others negatively or positively something and that might be further from the truth than we think.
We need more of these, I love this topic ❤
Thank you Thoraya! I love your interviews, and the people you interview are always so interesting!
Hii Thoraya I really really love your content. The way you film it's unique and lovely. I feel connected to these stranger's stories in some ways. Thank you for doing this and i appreciate your work.❤ Much Love From India
Love these Thorayah. Keep it up. Much love
Loving listening to these ppl w/their interesting stories. No matter what they endured, they seem to have made peace w/their situations.
These videos are the best. Thank you for doing these. Proper soul food. ❤❤❤❤
The camera really captures everyone’s qualities
Thank you for taking the time to capture the beauty of people. ❤️
As always, thank you for these wonderful videos. I hope I can have a positive impact like you.
I appreciate your channel!!! Everyone of us is important and deserving of the best!!! ❤❤❤
I am so happy you are posting again
