    Julia. You are brilliant. No other word.
    I am disgusted you’ve been denied playing ginger in the sequel, chicken run was part of my childhood. But more than that, when you posted your video about self-acceptance and I said how low I was feeling, you took the time to not only reply but to lock away the dark voices in my mind for a while. Again, you are brilliant Julia, and please never forget how so many people love and admire you xx

    This is exactly what I needed. I broke mentally Monday night and Tuesday morning. I am 25 years old and have had mental health problems in the past, and these last few weeks have been pressuring the weight of desolation on my skull. Thankfully I’m feeling better, but the beauty shown in this video will remind me that there is so much wonder and beauty in the world. And it won’t be long before we can experience it again. Thank you Julia ❤️

      I'm so sorry to hear you've been struggling Mike. I know how that feels. It's good to hear you are feeling better. Keep things in the day and, just live for the now. I'm glad the video helped to soothe you. Sending love your way.x

      Julia Sawalha Thank you so much for having the time to reply and for your kind words of support. I can’t articulate how much it means. Thank you so much xx
      PS looking forward to chicken run 2 haha

    • @mikefahey3878
      @mikefahey3878 Před 4 lety

      Hey Julia, sorry but this is the only way I could reach you. I heard from a friend that you’ve been axed from chicken run 2 due to ageism. Just want to say I am beyond fucking furious, pardon the language, but you ARE ginger and are part of my childhood. I hope you know so many people are here by your side and will let our feelings be known so hopefully the heads can reverse this idiotic decision! You’re fucking brilliant and never forget it xx

    Hi Julia I should have commented ages ago but it didn't come to mind then...I love these videos you do and the poetry and surroundings of nature always get me in a relaxed mood. I wonder if you ever visit Devon much? I live not far from the river Otter and would be nice to have a video filmed around there whilst reciting " To the river Otter" by Coleridge...also are you familiar with a place called Stover Park near Newton Abbot. They have the Ted Hughes trail with posts of his poetry on nature scattered around the woods and lake there. Just some ideas for if your ever come to this part of the country ☺️

  • @TheDriftdog
    @TheDriftdog Před 4 lety +4

    I was hoping you’d post something for this. I’m struggling, it’s hard knowing that my twins education is my responsibility, that I need to facilitate my husband working from home, that I can’t go for a swim, that I’m it for my elderly parents that I can’t go visit, that even this does not motivate my brother or sister to get in touch. And I know that I could be the one to get in touch with them but I’m done trying, I can’t risk another rejection in this current situation.
    I need reminders like this to make me snap out of this funk. Thank you Julia, hope that you and yours are safe 🌈

      Julia Sawalha thank you for your kind words, you’re right of course, I just need to keep the heid as we say in Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿. Tomorrow is the weekend so I’ll have one less worry for two days with not being the, headmistress, class teacher, office lady, dinner wummin and janny lol. I hope you have a lovely weekend, take care of you and yours 🙂

      Hi , what you say about siblings and getting in touch or not in your xnd minds case. I understand that- done with trying . Rejection is hard to deal with at the best if times so maybe it's ok for now to focus on who is immediately around you?!?
      Thank you for sharing your thoughts. They've helped me.
      Thank you for the video 🌈♥️
