I know I've taken a break from posting adventure or longer videos, but will be hopefully creating some soon :)
For now, enjoy these short words written from spurts of thoughts I've had over the past week.
Much love
I enjoy listening to your words even in short form!! if you plan on ever adventuring BC, Canada, lemme know!!
You used a soundtrack from omori bro
Everything ends and it's always sad, but everything begins again, too. And that's always happy. Be happy.
"what's meant to stay will stay." i really needed to hear this
And What's meant to left Will left so don't worry because God do perfectly the things
I lost the girl I love the most, because I was blind to how I've been hurting her. I spend hours dwelling on the past, thinking about how I regretted everything. She still loves me, and I still love her. But it's time to let go so we can both heal and become our own person. We are apart now, but still connected. I hope she becomes the person she's always wanted to be, and that she knows I'll always be there for her. Letting go means that I love her. And I've let go.
The fact that all of what has happened to me led me to all of this is rlly odd and has rlly made me think. I ironically also lost the girl I love the most and also due to the fact that I was hurting her. I hope ur okay now and that youve healed at least to some extent. But I had to let her go too, it hurt, a lot but, I love her and just like you, letting her go meant that I love her. But at the same time, all of this has made me think that this was.. probably meant to happen, ever since that happened, I’ve been recommended simon’s videos in which I started binging for some reason even tho I didn’t rlly want to, I ended up falling asleep and when I woke up, I woke up to this exact video. The girl and I used to say good morning to each other, but that isn’t gonna happen anymore, today I got this instead and found this comment instantly. This may be a stretch (and long reply) but I feel like this was meant to happen and that soon enough, another person will fall in place for me again, to fill in that hole. I hope she ends up where she wants to go and that life treats her well. Sorry for the long reply, I didn’t really have anyone to vent to so, to the CZcams comment sections we go!! Xp
@@Desiko3722 Hey, no worries dude. I'm glad you found some solace in the comments. It's been a hot second since everything's happened to me, and all I can say is that, while the scar still hurts at times, I can't be any happier about where I am now. I've found new goals and dreams to work towards to, and am discovering more about myself every day. I reconnected with my ex recently, and while that took a lot out of me, I'm really happy that there is still love between us no matter how far away our paths are currently diverging. While finding another partner is far down my list at the moment, I do believe that the more we work on ourselves and strive to be better than the people that we were yesterday, the law of attraction will naturally work in our favour. Until then, all the best to us, and I hope you have an awesome one. Much love to you
@@wyjaehan1515 i'm really glad youre happier and found newer goals and dreams to work towards :) and are finding more about urself and what life u will entail. As much as i would love to reconnect with my ex and get back together, i do not wish for it to happen (because there was no hate or malice between us when it ended, it ended tho because of me and my feelings, we loved each other so much but i ended up dwelling too much on my emotions) its like simon said, "whats meant to stay, will stay". i plan to just find myself and build myself up again into someone i am proud of and love more cuz i also believe that the law of attraction will naturally come too I never even expected to meet her in the first place but i somehow did, so i dont plan on chasing another person or try to find someone bc i believe they'll come to me, idk when tho. Much love to you too man, thanks for replying, i dont have anyone else right now to talk to so its nice to know that there is someone out there that will listen, it gives me reassurance and hope that i'll find another person to talk to everyday again and that will listen to the random stuff i talk about :) idk who you are but i hope life treats u well
@@Desiko3722 Of course, it's good that it sounds like you have it figured out/are on the track you want. Come back to this thread any time you need. All the best in your endeavours and adventures, and take care :)
@@wyjaehan1515 I got a notification that someone liked my comment in this reply section, I checked if someone said something in here and realized that it has been 2 months since I last talked here. How has it already been 2 months already? Idk but ig while I’m here, update: doing pretty good these days :) hope ur doing good too
I lost 2 of my best friends about June-July 2021 and I feel like it was my fault aswell. I really felt so annoyed at them at first because I made these fake scenarios in my head saying that they were always talking about me but it really wasn't true. I always assumed that whenever they saw me all they throught about was how horrible I am. I still believe that the relationship ending was half my fault and half theirs but whatever it was I feel so extremely lonely all the time. I do have friends but they just don't compare to how much fun I had with my old friends. I am finding it hard to let go and forget. Mainly because I feel like they acted like I was invisible even months after we broke up. They moved on so fast and I feel like I am still stuck in July 2021. They made new friends and now I am stuck with people who I don't not like but I have had more exiting relationships with other people.
People always say that if you talk to someone it will help and a few weeks ago I finally did talk to my parents. It didn't do anything at all. They gave me tips and said they were allways here to help but I still feel stuck.
Thanks for reading I really do appreciate it and it does help Simon to know that I can relate to someone like you with something like this.
I'm glad you were able to also realize that maybe part of it was your own fault. In general I think sometimes things fall apart, but not because of things we do - but because of the direction we are headed on. Much love Eleanor
hey hey, I am proud of you for reaching out to your parents even if it didn't help in the end. it may be discouraging to still feel stuck but that is not your forever, it is for now. continue reaching out!! we need people. your a person too, we need you!!
@@wholesomesimon ❤️
I can relate to you so much. I lost my only true friend,my best friend all because of me . If only I was a good person,We could have been still friends. I couldn’t go to the schools last day either since It was only 5 days after I lost her. I was in my bed for weeks crying,guilt tripping,regretting,self harming. I lost the intention to live since she was the only person who understood me,was there for me. But she was too good for me. I kept hurting her, she couldn’t enjoy being with ther friends because I was kinda awkward with her friends since they weren’t my friends. The day I told her not to stay besties anymore, I didn’t know it would be that scarier,that hurtful before I did it. It’s been a month. I still wake up everyday with heavy heart and panic attacks from time to time. I have none to talk to,none to share anything to,none to ask for help. I regret being such a bad person. But she looks happy,which I am relieved tbh. I did kinda resent her a bit when she didn’t even send me a single message once after that day. But I don’t deserve it in anyway. I apologised a lot of times too. Why am I like this. Why at the end I am left all alone.
@@isratjahan6325 it's OK. First of all. Recognising that you did something wrong in the first place shows what kind of person you are deep down. It shows that you are able to recognise when you are wrong. And that you have the courage to apologise. Even most adults can't do that. You are strong enough to push through and say that you are sorry.
Seen as you don't have many people to talk to here is some advise my parents gave me:
You are not alone. It might not seem like it but if you look into people's lives more, you are able to see what everyone is struggling with. Depression, anxiety, loneliness. It is scary but even that big friend group that you see and want to be in also has people in there that are going through things that we can't even comprehend. You found me. You related to me. You aren't alone in this. I am someone who many people would be surprised at if I told them my life story. So, suttly opening up to people can help. That is so much easier said than done so take as long as you need to do anything. Even if it takes years. It's OK to be scared or it's OK to still be getting over that one friend.
Assuming that you are around the age of 20 or under, you have your whole life ahead of you. This is a fragment of your life... A tiny little piece. There is no doubt more people will come into your life at some point to save you. And when they do, take it as a sign to show that they chose you and you chose them. Every day is worth living because you don't know what can happen.
Thank you for your comment because it still makes me realise how lucky I am today. To sometimes think that people like you have it worse than me is horrifying but I will go to bed tonight feeling grateful for the life I have all because of you. Thank you and I really hope you will find some more friends and do well in life. Thank you for your comment 🙂
Always take breaks when needed and letting go can be hard but it just takes time, stay safe and healthy, love you Simon
I really needed this today. I’ve been stuck with the thoughts of not wanting to let a certain friend go. I’ve come to realize that it’s not that I want to be friends with them again but the fact that I don’t want to let go of the past. Definitely needed a reminder to say that it’s ok to let go and that everyone has a different path to take. I really love the small simple video you posts too. Sometimes it’s good to have a simple reminder ❤️
Yes I lost some many friends.
Edit: For some reason every year I make a friend I also lose one.
I feel like in whatever friendship I’m in I’m always doing the work so it won’t fall apart :(
Leave them or conformant them about it and tell them how you feel
I think good friends support you no matter what. As adults, we should learn that things aren't the same as it used to be. We are faced with challenges and responsibilities that we no longer have enough time to hang out with others and it is totally fine. Appreciate those who stayed simon. Like you said, what or who is meant to stay will stay. Love this video☺️
I cut off my best friends exactly two years ago from now and letting go of them was hard but one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I believe that it benefited all of us.
I took some time to just be independent and change my environment/who I surrounded myself with. So now I have pretty great friends but I’m having trouble staying close with them. They all have pre existing relationships with each other so I sometimes feel isolated. Also, we’re all focused on our education so it’s hard to keep in touch with them 24/7. However when we are together, it feels like we’re with each other all the time.
Real friends stay, even when you're busy.
Seriously thank you for making these videos, they are my source of comfort and I hope you can keep making them and that they bring you as much joy as they do to us :)
Str8 wisdom, short n sweet too, one of best advice I've heard on the subject
YEAY SIMON IS BACK!!!! I NEED THIS 💕
This is so beautiful, simon. I've been struggling a lot these days and your videos are really helping me stay calm.i just wanted to say thank you for that
you have no idea how much i needed this, thank you
thank you simon, i rlly needed this. my friend of almost a year now had to go for a while and im just missing him everyday. it's gonna be our one year in may and words can't describe how greatful i am for meeting him at the right time. he saved me from going down a deep path that i haven't been wanting to see again for the rest of my life. it's just hard when you don't know when they'll be coming back.. hopefully sooner than later
I'm glad I found this amazing channel today .
I'm at this exact point in my life, guess I just needed to see this video, much love bro 💪🖤
Ty for this bro 🙏, felt a huge relief after watching this
Whenever I hear it’s best not to hold on if it’s not benefiting everyone, I don’t want to hear it or believe it. But it’s always what I need to hear. I’m sorry you lost a friend. You were right tho success doesn’t mean you have to be lonely
I think it’s hard when I best friend just leaves you and acts like nothing happens and is so happy but your laying in your bed under your blanket crying and whatching vids like this so u don’t hurt yourself or others
This video made me sad. I hope ur okay Simon. You’re not lonely. You have us if that makes you feel better. Your very inspirational and you took this in a very mature way. I hope this small text makes you happy. I hope you have a great and awsome day/night
Needed to hear this. Thank you
Thank you so much you have made me realise life isn’t that bad after all and that I haven’t experienced my whole life yet thank you for this❤
You create so beautiful videos man!
I’ve just stumbled across your videos and I just wanted to say thank you 🥺
I needed this, I've been hurting because of some friends but because they are the first people who actually made an effort to talk to me I don't want to drop them. They're toxic though and it'd be better if I let go :/
The best is yet to come .
I needed this
thank you for this video, really.
been loving the shirt videos
I just recently lost my grandma and his channel is helping me a lot thanks a lot
I just randomly saw a video that named "a video when you are sad" and i watched that it was 2y ago vdeo and then i start exploring thi Channel and when i was at my low destiny let me met to this channel when i really needed
we love u simon!
Beautiful video 🌝🙏 Praying Tanaka sheds a tear, because this is a big true.
I’ve been thinking about stuff like this for a while. I’m so proud of you for making this video and for sharing that story- it really be resonating
I love this channel so fucking much
Today was the first time in 2 years that really reached out to my friends and hung out with most of them today. I isolated myself for 2 years and my friends would still call me and text me time to time and I would ignore their calls and texts for 2 years but I finally reached out today and we got back together instantly like nothing happened. I mean a lot happened but they knew I was just going thru depression and I just wanted to isolate myself. My doctor told me I’m very lucky to have friends like this because most people don’t. I didn’t realize that but then when she told me and I realized I became a lot more grateful for my friends.
I lost basically all my friends after Covid... instead of keeping in touch online... we just... drifted. I tried to reconnect a few times but no one really seemed too interested. I've let them go now... but it still doesn't fill the void that they left.
hey hey simon,
I don't want to believe that you have to be lonely in order to be successful either. I remember reading a comment you replied to about success and you are right; that it all depends what success means to us. it may change for sure but it doesn't have to be just one thing. can be a mix of things like the right company, time for yourself, being out in nature, etc etc!! choosing or not choosing something is still a decision being made. it doesn't have to be all black and white but its hard to find a middle ground for sure. its like a seesaw id say because it's like bouncing to either side but it takes a lot of intention to be both balanced eh? trial and error. you're also right that there can be beauty in taking whatever it is, just how it is. yes, we are allowed to grieve over the "should haves" or "could haves". if those are some of the consequences that comes for daring to love, so be it. but that doesn't mean you have to stay living in your mistakes. you can live life carrying the love you have for them even if its from a distance. they can show through feelings of nostalgia and smiling about those moments. or even show through tears. but this time you showcased it through your art; this video. thank you sososo much for sharing the love. take care, simon. I mean it!!
These past years from 2019 to now have been crappy for me I went through two heartbreaks I suck at letting things go I think things happen for a reason and I think being heartbroken makes you realize so much about yourself and the people you dated, if you are going through heartbreak of any kind I’m sorry and I hope you push through because there’s always gonna be light at the end of the tunnel
This was soul provoking at its best. ❤ I also believe .. that during that space both people are growing and if it’s meant to be.. will meet again at another space & time. And perhaps share what they’ve learned during their time apart. Again, if the stars ✨ are aligned that way. Awesome video. Aloha 🤙🏾 from Hawai’i 🧘🏽♀️🌱
I lost my gf because I didn't talk to her much.. I really try now(to talk to others). I know I can't change things and how they happened. I hope she's okay now.:)
I’m sorry for your lost take as much time you need to heal, and even tell your parents about it and what your going through
Learning how to talk and being open in conversations can be hard but you’ll get better at it
And it’s okay she’s in gods hands now
And it’s not your fault, nobody is blaming you I promise
Looking back as you get older you’ll see it wasn’t your fault and nobody is blaming you not even god
I know exactly how you feel. I lost my best friend and it was also my fault. She got a different best friend who didn’t like me and I was scared that my bff would leave me so I did it first. At first I couldn’t even look at her the same way without crying. But overtime I realized that the good things stay with you and that all things happen for a reason. I also learned from this video so thank you so much
Congrats, you got a new subscriber :)
This goes to a friend of mine who was diagnosed with congenital heart disease. We were very close back then but we part ways intentionally five months ago. I hope he's in a better place, a better life.
I've been having a huge burnout lately. Your videos make me want to write again.
I appreciate this a lot :,(
Hi Simon...my visa got rejected today and it feels so overwhelming..but this has helped me feel better✨thank you
Hats off 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Actually it's hard to let go ... but everyone must sue the hardships either in losing a friend or anyother thing
I hope the sadness stay away from you
🌸🦋🌸
simon ^^ 🌼🌻🌼
I started making friends but I know that soon they'll all be gone. And that sucks, it really does. It's still a long ways out but I'm already feeling the pain of it, and that makes it harder. But it's true, what's meant to stay will stay. And for whatever is gone something else will take it's place.
Time flies and when that person we love goes all that love we had for them that we didn't show is the tears we let lose, I lost my cousin due to drugs and it's hard, I cried and they said I didn't know him much but I wish I knew him more cause it still hurted.......RIP Micheal we miss you........
I lost an old friend in 2020 and it was a total shock. We have drifted apart over the years since I moved to Paris...we reconnected again that year and were going to meet up, but sadly we never got a chance... sending love...
My mom passed away two years ago even though I pretend to be fine,I’m hurting inside,I laugh,cry scream,smile but never tell anyone what I’m going through,I can tell you it isn’t easy letting go of someone I still haven’t let go.maybe one day I’ll be able to let go and move on but it hurts thinking someone who was next to you through thick and thins isn’t here anymore someone who loved you a lot isn’t here anymore even though it hurts I hope you let go I hope I move on someday I surely can not forget my mom but will remember her as a happy memory instead of crying and learn to love and give people a chance ❤😭😭
I've had this happen many times as well. Although, they weren't my mother, but other relatives. Our stories are pretty much the same. I never really tell anyone whats happening in my head, only one of my friends, but I very rarely open up to them.
Hope you're better now, stay safe
My heart goes out to you. I couldn’t imagine the pain your going through. Know that it is going to be okay. Take all the time you need to cry and miss her and be sad because that is ok. It is ok to not be ok. Your being so strong and it will get better ok. It is sad and there’s nothing you can do to change that. Just know I am thinking of you. Even though I am a stranger talking through a screen, my heart goes out to you and I’ll keep you in my prayers. ❤
@@jiminy.c.3868 thank you for thinking about me,this means a lot🥹
@@imlocksaw I hope you’re doing better,reading this helped me,thank you 🥹☺️☺️
me inspiras, es todo lo q puedo decir, muchas gracias por esto❤
this video is very great! good message and good camera work :] also, whats the music in the background?
Thanks! and it's czcams.com/video/TuVzGjBQLKU/video.html
a really good one.!
What font did you use for this video?
also thank you for making content and just existing, its these videos that find me in my lows and really do make an impact on my life :)
Excellent video.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
Great video with clean shots and clean minimalistic editing, great job :)
Edit: I noticed the thumbnails for this and the last handful of videos seemed fairly empty compared to some of your other videos, I'm guessing leading to less people clicking on them? Just suggesting bringing back the text on the thumbnails like your previous videos, it makes it seem more interesting to watch :) great overall though
appreciate the feedback - rarely get comments like this. But in general I'm not too worried about how many clicks my videos get or any of the analytics. Just focused on how the video makes people feel. this video is actually doing better than almost all of my latest ones :)
Thank you.
my sister is moving out today. good luck ate, do well in college and get your dream job. i already miss you.
Thank You
Pls do a podcast
Omori’s song in the background fits incredibly
Are they 2 of those fellas in the project west?
teume! it's okay to let go of them
What camera do you
Use?
I made a guy bestf 3 years back we used to have sm fun together and i was never lucky enough to get a proper bestf but when i got him i felt like i am the most luckiest person oit there .he used to take care of me like no one did i was there for him whenever he needed me and last year he confessed me that he had feelings for me .deep down i was scared that it doesn't affect our friendship i did have feelings for him but i kept to myself and i thought when proper time would come i'd confess him but he did it first i accepted that proposal. But a couple of months back he said he lost his feelings towards me and acted like he doesn't care abt me like he used to when i asked him to help as my exams where going on and i wasn't ready for this heartbreak he said it doesn't matter anyways anything he'd do won't be real. Idk what happened to him he was not the guy i met before he started blaming me that it was my fault and even if it was i asked him to forgive me if i did anything by mistake and begged him not to end this friendship atleast . he said idk i just don't feel anything . i still have no clue what happened to him and why did he leave me . after few months we started talking normally i noticed everything he did he started removing our pics from his insta highlights ,removed thw playlist we made together , removed my comments from his posts . he started talking to another girl ( she was my frnd too but we dont talk anymore) i still ignored i said to myself its ok it's his choice anyways and then he started ignoring my texts started sending her sky pics which i absolutely hated cause once he said he took sky pics becz of me and now he sends to her. I finally said him i think you got a new bestf and you replaced me and then he goes " thank you i wasn't sure we ( he and that girl) are bestfs or not but now yes we are " that shattered my heart into pieces i never thought he'd replace me so easily. I was there for him when no one was and now he left me and says he got a new bestf . still i don't think he is even sorry for what he did .
This is my side of the story maybe his side of the story would be different so please don't say him anything. I just wish he misses me as i miss him and know that i alwys cared abt him even tho he went to some other girl. :)
I couldn’t help but notice how similar our stories are and reply. idk how and who u are rn or how that guy is rn but tbh I never really got those type of ppl, to just leave or disappear without a proper reason and when confronted, act as if nothing happened. I’m sure they have their reasonings but i never got it. I feel like this is probably the hardest part about friendships and relationships, especially if you’re clearly the only one hanging on. the fact that eventually, the spot that you once filled, will be filled in by someone else, and that the person you once had, no longer cares about you or bothers talking to you. it sucks. Idk where I’m going with this tbh and it might not make sense but I just hope that the right cards will be drawn and fall into place for you :)
@@Desiko3722 hey thanks bestie ! Rn we aren't in contacts anymore and the only thing i regret is going back to him after he hurted me so many times . i thought i'll be able to explain him irl but he just ignored and went without saying a goodbye i shouldn't have talked to him irl it's just a terrible memory anyways nit looking back i am trying to recover from it i hope things get better soon :)
idk Simon will reply or not but just wanted to take a suggestion as a little sis 🥺
actually my only close friend (online friend) like we used to talk daily at least for one minute but from last 1 month he is isolating himself and doesn't talk to me he has 5 more friends but i only have him idk if he's ignoring me or just ditching me.. Pleaseeeeeee reply 🙌💗
THANKS IN ADVANCE
