    This came exactly when I needed it so much Taz! I've always been ashamed of feeling lonely and I would seek out relationships, but they weren't genuine connections so it was so tiring trying to figure out why I feel so lonely and thought that I just needed to find the right person.

      @annoar9776 Před rokem +1

      I just wanted to add that you don't NEED to find that right person. You can be whole on your own. But it's nice having someone who can relate so deeply. :)

    • @r.martin3494
      @r.martin3494 Před rokem +1

      Dear Annoar:
      Could it be that never having found that right person, we don't have the experience to draw upon to be able to accurately judge or comprehend how much more advantageous it is to actually have that right and special someone? Similarly, if you've never had footwear you will be reluctant to agree that you "need" footwear, but once you've given it a chance and the footwear hasn't walked off on its own and left you behind - because one's feet smell - then you would never want to be without footwear! Especially when cold or walking on extremely hot surfaces. This analogy fits perfectly with a partnership in life, in my view. One can manage alone, life is whole as a single person, but as a coupled person - "life has shoes" and "we all need footwear, unless our only experience of life is a tropical beach / a walk alone."
      🌬️🦶🏼🦶🏼👢👢
      Like music, a single note may make a wonderful 'ping', but two notes, an octave apart 🎹🎹 make each note a greater part when played as a whole.
      ⛩️ ☯️
      As Tibetans would once say;
      “Even the squirrel burries it's nuts for winter!"
      And;
      "For a tree to be grafted in order to bear fruit, a gash cannot be left to heal over before the branch is eveloped."
      However, it seems that it is kinder to others that some of us remain alone, even though that "significant other" may not have the pragmatism, nor yet gained the required wisdom to "save" themself, nor the altruism to save us.
      🙏 Ngo mei tor faw.

    I've always felt that feeling of being alone with a group of people, which is why I mostly isolate and feel less alone when I'm by myself. I've never been too emotional about it until the last few months of 2022 and even now, it still makes me annoyed and sad that effort always gets wasted on my end. I feel like I'm having to go through the lesson again of being fine by myself and this video is really helpful to that. Will definitely be watching this again for those moments ❤️

    I was in my mid twenties when I finally learnt some of the most important things:
    It's okay to be alone as long as you don't feel lonely
    It's okay to ask for help
    It's okay to say no
    It's okay to put yourself first (it's not selfish it's essential at times)
    You are mostly responsible for you own happiness

    And Taz, this is exactly why I click on your videos without I even reading the title: because you are so relatable and comforting, that I genuinely don’t care what your video is about - I just enjoy the feeling of hanging out with someone who feels very much like a friend 🥰. Honestly, you could make a voice over video of you watching a freshly painted white wall dry and I’d still watch it: because it’s got YOU in it 💕
    Your smile, and your and big, kind heart are infectious Taz. Thank you for sharing them with us 🥰🥰🥰

    Thank you so much for this video Taz. Near the end you talk about following creators who you relate to and who affect you in a positive way, and you are definitely one of those people for me. I remember a couple years ago when I found your channel and you wore nothing but hoodies and you made self depreciating jokes all the time and I’ve been with you ever since. Watching you grow and evolve as a person into the wonderful human being you are now has been truly inspirational and you motivate me to be a better person. Some of the things you said in this video really reflected how I felt and still feel about myself. I’m at a really low point in my life and I know I have a lot to work on, and you inspire me every day to carry on and make those positive changes in my life so thank you !! :]

    Fantastic video. So true and such wise words! People ten assume I must be lonely because I live alone. I do lots f things alone but because I am happy on my own company and know myself and what my fundamental needs are and make sure they are met I am ok.I have a few good friends who I know and can trust and that's lovely for when I need that connection and support . Looking after and nururing my inner child is also important . Hmmm good video to watch prior to going to bed. Feel calm and secure from watching this. You've grown up so much since the start of your channel and become an inspiration for others. Take care Taz.
