Miss Thoraya. I love your content. I found this while searching on youtube and im afraid someobdy is plagurising your content. if its not you please forgive me i've had several beers. but please look into it. You deserve all the revenue you worked for i dont wanna see any theives
l0vesav that is the account that had a totally thoraya style video the narrator even sounded like you. if its not you again i apologize for even bringing this up. have a good day. BE KIND
You need a hair colour thorayaa....from a greek🇬🇷🤭👍
If you ever come to the Philly/ Jersey/ NYC area would love to do this. It's so hard meeting interesting, kind people. ❤
Thorayaa! This episode is my favorite so far! I have seen others that I felt the same way about though😂
Thank you for making these possible🙏🏽😌humanity truly is beautiful.
Thanks for bringing the real to the virtual😌🙏🏽💜💚💜🌞
I want those two men to be friends.
Me too! So badly! And if they do become friends I want to see an update!
😂😂👍🏼 that would be great
Not with all that God talk
@@misstigerbubbles
Religious and non-religious people can be friends.
Haha yessss!! I was thinking it too!
I pray that man from Chicago a long and blessed life. What a terrible burden to carry the loss of many friends and family members.. May he see well beyond 35!
So amazing that he had the ability to rise above enough to move away, as incredibly difficult as that must have been emotionally.
To the guy who nearly died and lost so many people so glad your still here your beutiful
*you're
Also, punctuation is your friend.
@@gardenx5574 you must be really bored if that's the best you've got fooool 😂
@@gardenx5574 an English teacher you actually have students you're like 50 time to retire muppppet 😂
Loved all the groups, but felt like these two could really feel the others story of this journey, wishing all of them peace and love! That’s what life is all about, spreading the love of JESUS ❤️
You can tell the guy who saved them kids at the phyiaric hospital is a beautiful soul the world needs more people like him
Yess!!
watching him, something in myself like healed and my heart started to open up again!
I cant even tell really why..
I also really liked the beautiful caring open soul with the pink-violet hair - seeing them as a couple just, i dont know, made me somehow deep inside, believe in good heartful relationship again.
Im so happy they gonna marry!!!
Sounds strange maybe, i know...
@@nathanmabry2991awesome
Well done on getting back on the fist bump. I hope you're doing great.
Much love from BC Canada
OMG THATS THE FIANCEEEEEEE WHAT THE HELLLLLLL THEY ARE PERFECT FOR EACH OTHER
when that reveal happened i genuinely cried, they both have such beautiful souls. I wish them all the happiness in the world
He manifested it ❤
I had to check the comments for this!!! how cute are they 😭🙃
I WAS LIKE WHHHAAAAATTTT
But then again their vibe matched so well I should have guessed 😂😂
I did a psychology study in college where I basically did this and a stranger and i asked each other scripted questions over the phone and after like 30 mins or whatever it was i felt like i knew more about him than some of my friends it was crazy. If only we would listen this openly and closely to those people in our lives we're closest to...
What were the questions?
Do you still talk to or ever see him around nowadays?
I love these videos because they're a reminder that we're all so much more alike than we are different. We all go through the same types of things in life and being reminded of that helps people to be more compassionate towards others.
Thank you for all that you do, Thoraya.
Would like support with $50 if you can. Thank you.
Those two men are so insightful and wise. They’re going places. Also they have just inspired a whole lot of people!! Hope they feel inspired and keep up that integrity and being real!
You see how much those two guys opened up without seeing each other and then felt distant once they seen each other, thats because of the 'man up, be strong' stigma that guys in our generation grew up with..
I hope they stayed in touch because guys especially need guy friends they can open upto with no judgment and those two have already opened up to each other more then most guys would after years of friendship
Everything you just said. I was thinking the same thing re: why they seemed to feel awkward when they saw each other.
it is curious how everybody turns shy the moment they see each other,
after talking for so long.
being human is scary and beautiful at the same time...
this channel is a weapon against trauma
and war
Thoraya is the anti-bomb
I fell in love with everyone. To the girl who lost her father, from a 50 year old guy on the other side of the country with children around her age: It was impossible to look at and listen to you without knowing that you are such a wonderful little light in this world.
That is one of the most beautiful comments I've ever read on CZcams. Thank you for being you 😭 💕
Yes!!
Same💖☀️🌟
@@9sheri9 I am so proud of you. Can't even imagine what you've been through
Your comment made me tear up, and I don’t give away my tears easily! ❤
You're a life treasure, Thoraya.
Your videos always restore my faith in Humanity.
Much love
This format allows people to be authentic. That's why these clips work 🤔
Quite aweawesome video ideas indeed #SaveSoil
Yesssssss!!! Always!!
These laughs that the fistbumpers are sharing are contagious! They were cheesin so hard! 🤣
Chicago dude is really out there living and representing his faith.
It was so surprising to know that rainbow sock guy’s fiancé was dagger tat girl. It just feels like you get so much more information about them just by knowing the connection ❤
“My internal pain wasn’t their fault” damn that shit hit 💔
Your show doesn’t get enough credit. You legit let people make the show. Super authentic.
This is such a beautiful display of what pure human interaction could be like without stereotyping and assumptions.
🤍🌟
I cried throughout the whole thing. We need each other. We need the connection. Please don't let us lose it. Thank you so much Thoraya! You are an amazing person who connects us all. God Bless You!!
These strangers are so close and very intimate with each others feelings. It’s a model we could take to treat another and maybe, just give one another a chance. We’re really quite similar, and this was a spectacular segment. Thanks to all involved.
Yes!!!😃👏🏼👏🏼
There's something so pure and wholesome about this, it reminds me that life is good actually.
I agree. I think all of us could be reminded of this more. Everything seems so heavy if I don't stop for a perspective check 💕
Totally
I really believe those 2 men are meant to be close. This was fate. I loved them all.i hope they stay in touch!❤❤❤🇨🇦.
I honestly feel like rainbow socks guy and cowboy hat girl were friends in another life. I hope they kept in touch!
aint gonna lie. you need to upload more often. you have no idea what you do for humanity
Just beautiful! I'm so happy they all exchanged contact information. Strangers are just friends we haven't met yet!
That is my dad’s favourite saying.🙏🏻❤️
I admire Balance and 10, they have acquired plenty of wisdom on their journey through life. They had the kind of conversation that men should have more often but men are often reluctant to speak from the heart to each other.
I just want to give the guy with the '10' on his shirt a big hug. I think he needs one. He's going through some stuff.
Thoraya, I have mixed feelings when I see you have a new video up. Excitement because I’m going to learn something from some strangers, and sadness, because some of those things are going to make me cry.💜💜💜
I feel exactly the same.
From now on, add happiness to that list too! Happiness that those who you'll be hearing sad life experiences from have made it to this day even through it all! 💪
@@annonimiss6422 Love to you and yours. From my heart, always.
@@annonimiss6422 like to watch her videos when I feel overwhelmed or sad, it makes me feel like I'm "normal" and that my feelings and reactions are ok
To the guy in the black cap and the “balance” shirt: you are gorgeous in and out, wish you a life full of love ❤ also the two of them are meant to be friends.
I agree! His ability to be so transparent is intriguing ❤
This is so powerful - I don’t even know these people and I’m so glad they are here on Earth- especially the two guys - that they didn’t meet an untimely death - our world is richer because of all of them and you too, Thoraya!
Love to you!
@@sherryd.3425 💕 & 🤗 from one sheri to another sherry
👏
We all need meaningful connections with other people, it helps keep us grounded. When we see ourselves reflected in the situations and reactions of othetr we feel more connected to the world around us, and less like a disembodied sentience trying to hold on
this. exactly this.
Agreed 💕
I'm in love with the guys with black attire, I seriously am, can't take my eyes off them.❤
Their souls are just so awesome!
Expecting to “know everything” by a certain age is crazy, if you’re living life right you never stop learning.
Those two guys were the most intimate yet when they came face to face they turned awkward. It tells a lot about how guys don't open up emotionally to other people in general.
The first two gentleman, seem like “ old friends”.
Omg i was MINDBLOWN when i realised that smiley hat's fiance is the beautiful person with the part dye! Whaaaat - they fit perfectly!! 😍
I really love this concept. Two people who probably would never really talk are getting into great conversations with each other! So interesting and valuable! Thanks for doing this! ❤️✨
Every time the woman in the cowboy hat laughed, I smiled. There's something about her laugh that just got me.
Why cant we talk to strangers more often?❤
exactly!
Smartphones play a huge role. I'm kinda old. And I do miss those pre smartphone times when I'd be having conversations with strangers on train rides all the time.
Make a conscious effort (set a rule) to not always be on your phone. When appropriate, don't be afraid to talk to strangers.
@kakathi4776 Visit the Midwest - we do it all the time 😂
People have fears
The guy with the "Balance" shirt, he's on the right path and he "understands" the bigger picture! 😊💜
It feels really good to connect with people here
that I don't have in my own life.
Always a blessing, thank you❤
We're all here for you :) just keep on sailing and we'll be right behind you like a shadow pushing you forward
I feel ya. Being able to talk to someone openly is a great thing. What's holding up the situation with you?
@@huyked
I just don't have a lot of connections and I struggle to build them with strangers because I'm somewhat of a lonewolf introvert.
I have coworkers I've tried to hangout with outside of work but I usually get the casual brush off with excuses.
Having experienced a lot of rejection since my teenage years I'm reluctant to step out of my comfort zone by starting conversations with random people.
I'm not a student and I don't do the whole bar/partying scene so it's difficult knowing how to find others with similar interests & beliefs who are open to new friendships.
Emotionally I've been starved for years so when passing the time I just try to find ways to keep my mind occupied.
@@radfoo72I feel this for real ❤
If you'd seen these people walk side by side on the streets you'd think they were friends for a very long time. ❤
These videos are always a treasure. The idea of asking people to draw each other is genius!
I’m honestly amazed at how accurate most of the drawings were too!! Super fun idea ^_^
Yeah, the power of feeling
17:58 Just might be my favorite chapter. This man listened to his brother speak and God put a response in his heart helping him formulate the words that his friend needed to hear in that very moment!
Real Talk! God Bless❤
That’s the most common response actually… I’ve heard that response soooo many times… if God was gunna put something in someone’s heart to say i don’t think it would be “look at the devil” “look at all the evil around you”…… “the devil is real so God has to be real” …….
I believe He would point to Jesus Christ not satan for His existence…
@@Cheese_crackers
You're speaking to an atheist and you think the best approach is pointing to Jesus Christ, a diety they already adamantly Don't believe in?
That does nothing to bolster your argument of having belief in God nor is it conducive in swaying an opinion of someone who has a steadfast dedication to denial where as if you can show someone things from a different perspective they may be more willing to try to better understand that which they cannot see.
Nobody denies the evil that is present today in the world.
If you believe that duality is a logical thought process then acknowledging what can be agreed upon and meeting on common ground can be a good first step to convincing someone to consider the other side of reality.
But what if a person doesn't want to hear about G-d? Not that it's necessarily the case here, but I guess it's just some food for thought.
@@annonimiss6422
Good point. I assume that's why he spoke about evil instead. lol
@@annonimiss6422 faith shouldn’t be sugar coated. IMO . People believe in God it’s not weird. People make it awkward for no reason. Just be yourself 🤷🏻♂️
Growing old is a privilege many don’t get.Enjoy every minute you can
The reveal at the end of the couple getting married!! I crieeed! They are both so amazing ❤
How many interesting people do we loose as friends Just because we don't speak each other enough..i really love all these young guys
And, women
hi Lisa, i thought the meaning of "guys" were "women and men" , so i wrote that( i'm trying to learn English) 👋@@Lisa-welder1
WHEN THE GUY'S FIANCE JOINED AND IT WAS THE CUTE GIRL FROM THE OTHER PAIRING!!! What an exciting surprise! I love them 🤗
Let me know how you feel about the episode being 34 minutes! ♥And if you're interested in my new journal, here is the link: www.thoraya.com/products/all-the-strangers-ive-ever-met-journal
Totally loved this video, including the length...it gave me a lot of food for thought!
I didn't mind it because your videos are always so beautiful
i honestly didnt even realize it was 34 minutes until i saw this comment! i loved the length, it was a beautiful video. thank you!
We love it still, even if it was an hour
I absolutely LOVED this. @Thoraya your videos are so beyond incredible and show the true art, passion, and authenticity of humanity as a whole while also the intricate ways in which we are so completely different and unique from one person to another. I am always so overjoyed when your videos come out because it is more sparingly but I know that quality like this takes time and thoughtfulness in the production. Thank you for everything you do!! (this length of video was perfect-amazing-wonderful, I feel the longer length gives us an even more meaningful glimpse into their lives). I hope to meet you one day strolling along somewhere in San Diego, but until that day I will keep enjoying your videos!!!
The guy from chicago…. You seem so genuine. Big heart
This was honestly so wholesome, watched the entire video. The two guys had me engaged til the end. So true about what the two guys said about communication. Communication skills isn't just about talking but most importantly LISTENING. Truly enjoyed this so much.
the PLOT TWIST at the end!!!! oh my god
I am living hermit off-grid with my family and I havent had social contacts in years. These type of videos makes me feel like there are good people in this world , thank you 💙💙
I love how you showed the bigger angle of the men to showcase their body language more. It was interesting seeing how their demeanor changed throughout the conversation and how they were able to relax. :)
As people pass by you on the street (or come in and out of your life briefly) try to take a moment to realize that you don't know what has happened to them to put them in the heart/head space they are in.
I don't know about y'all but I think doing these would be very therapeutic for those who participated in it! I love watching these. So many relatable things!♥️🙌🏻
My heart was with the young man from Chicago, and happy that God is important to him. Prayers for his continued journey. Lovely young man.
Sometimes I can hear with my heart better when I close the filter of my eyes❤
Emotions are conveyed and interpreted more efficiently when judgement isn't the gatekeeper.
We're more the same than we are different.
Love to you and yours for your open heart.
When judgement isn't the gatekeeper..... I like that
The two boys ,💜and the one with glasses I felt something special about him, from my own perception and intuition. Found him so relatable, with a lot of depth, and so cute, with so much tender in him.
I've loved the fun from some of them, and the depth from some of them, or both, and I've loved that lovable couple, I've loved them separate and I've loved realizing they has each other, and that the lovable blonde girl is going to their wedding and they all have met. 💜 Thank you all of the people that allows us to see this kind of Magic, and Thank you Thoraya, from the bottom of my heart.
Therapy works in part because you just have a reason to open up to someone who isnt direktly involved in your life. This is kind of similar…
The lady with the black and purple hair looks like she has so much more going on than she's letting on ❤
Love these gentlemen’s conversation. It was beautiful thing to behold. Better than going to therapy! Making new friends can help us through the tough times in life. Such laughter and fun! ❤
The guy in glasses and black tee with Chinese script, geez what an absolutely gorgeous soul!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I definitely want the two guys to remain buddies both have things in common. Demeanors are very similar. Blissings to all ❤
5:25 has a beautiful soul, so many people hate the lost family members, I am very thankful that she appreciates him and recognizes his struggles.
Edit: As I've watched the rest of the video, this person is a treasure. They are a pained caretaker, and those are the most precious people of all who struggle to provide even when they themselves are suffering lower on Maslow's hierarchy. They are a rare person.
The two guys could become good friends! Theyre getting along so well...experiments like this just go to show how much people need someone to listen to and talk to
Wow. It is very beautiful to see so much human connection. I'm very much in awe of the people speaking in front of the camera. I would be too shy:)
I loved the idea with the drawings.
I've rewatched different parts of this 2 and even three times and every time,
I gather more.
These exchanges have so much value and if you're open,
they just keep on giving💫👌🏼
It's so rare to come across content thats in no way toxic or offensive and may even have a holistically true and compassionate agenda - thank you Thoraya! So inspiring to wake up to a world of people just getting to know each other :) How cool!
guy with the smiley face hat is getting married in 2 days! Wishing you a smooth and beautiful wedding, man. Congrats!
These conversations are so few and far between when people don't stop to have them. I always try to engage strangers and as a result have had some serious conversations. Thank you for giving others the ability to know how this happens so that maybe they will be more open to it in their daily lives. We need what you do here. In fact more of these videos would improve the world.
I really enjoyed the interaction between the two guys. Both beautiful and unique souls. I feel like I would really enjoy talking to the guy in the 10 shirt. Thanks for this unique content ❤
Goes to show that as human beings we have more in common than not.
26:51 & 27:13
Incredible Accuracy!
27:01 Wasn't too far off either.
I feel like the more they connected with each other emotionally,
the better they could depict each other's physical characteristics with just their imaginations.
With the Billie Eilish Girl & Glam Girl
And Cowboy Hat Lady & Smiley Face Hat Guy there was definitely some deep connective energy flowing through that partition!😆😭💞
This is Beautiful!
I love that the girl and the guy with the glasses both drew stick people! 🤣❤️
I just love how everybody started laughing when they saw each other's drawings and each other's face for the first time. You could feel that their laugh was pure and heartfelt, as if they were long-term friends... and instead, they were just two strangers. I hope all of them keep in touch! (: ♥
I love the one dudes shirt that says balance
He got the sketch of the other dude down so accurate that's crazy
And the guy and girl who both Drew each other in hats and the guy got the girl in the cowboy hat
This episode was so happy and uplifted compared to the other one I've watched, this is only the second one so far.
What a wonderful idea to get strangers to open up with private information it is so wonderful they are having a wonderful time they are going to feel so much better after this. The best therapy they could possibly have, they are having so much fun can't beat that.
This is sweetest, most genuinely good-hearted youtube channel out there
How do you manage to find such sweet and amazing souls to talk to each other
Lovely to see when people just talk with no judgement. Most of the time only our perception and projections do not help to be what we supposed to be with people.
I'm certain this quote has been shared on your YT before but.....
"There are no strangers here; Only friends you haven't yet met."
By: William Butler Yeats - Irish poet - (13 June 1865 - 28 January 1939)
IF we could only TRY and interact with strangers as IF they were friends,
what a much better world this would be. !!!
Here's a challenge... Try and give genuine compliments to strangers.
You will LOVE seeing a person's face just light up, and who knows,
your words might be a lifesaver. ❤💛 💚 💙💜
Laughter is off the charts ❤️✨
This is just in case we forgot about all the beautiful souls inside of these bodies.
What a great group of participants. They are all so sweet, funny, articulate, special and introspective in their own way. Thank you Thoraya for what you do. Its genius.
Truly amazes me how easy it is to talk to a complete stranger, its so wholesome and deep. I love my online friends never met either one of them ever.
I'm always amazed how well these people can express their thoughts and feelings. I find it hard putting most things in words, to make them express what really moves me or concerns me.
thank you for those interesting movies where strangers open themselves to each other and the internet...
I wish you can upload more videos, even like once in a month. But we all know how hard it is to make a video, and it's not that easy. What I just want is to watch your videos more often.because we love your videos, we love to watch your videos that you upload in here
Thank you so much 🥺 Trying my beast to post 1-2 times a month ❤️
Yeah, we used to get videos once a week. We were spoiled then!
So proud of the guy for “ witnessing” to the other guy that God has to be real. Well done
This isn't meant as a hate comment in any way, I just think it's an important thing to keep in mind.
People who don't believe in G-d don't always appreciate hearing about Him. I'm not saying that in this video this was the case, as there's no way for me to know, but often it is, and as much as it's beautiful to share the beauty and wonders of G-d with others, it's usually safer to share His beauty with those who have similar beliefs (or a belief of any higher power).
I think that if someone does feel the desire/need to tell someone else who doesn't believe in Him the reasons they believe in His existence, it's thoughtful to ask the other party if it would be okay to share.
❤
I love the conversation of the guy with the dark cap and the guy with the big white plugs. It was so deep and meaningful. And I really thought they would become instant friends.
I adore these conversations! Makes me feel slightly more hopeful about the world!
I did not see that plot twist at the end coming!
When the video ends,
the silence floods the room again,
at that moment, you know,
how lonely you are,
how unheard you feel,
and from how high,
30 min of pure happiness,
of pure human kindness,
of pure ecstatic bliss,
can make you fall,
so deep,
again.
I was really sad this morning, these videos really helped me. I laugh, i tear up, and it makes me think on a deeper level. Thank you
videos that let me love humanity more..
To the guy with the "10" on the shirt: I thought the same about life, gave it an expiration date and still, the idea of it always remaining an option, helps me. Funny thing is, I'm 32 now and besides the fact that I still get overwhelmed and confused by life alot, the effect of it softened and really doesn't mean so much of a struggle anymore. It is something I am very grateful for and hope you get to experience as well: to let life become more of a dance than a fight. and btw, I value your talking skill of expressing appreciation for the other :)
all the love to you..
I LOVE ALL this SO much! Our natural inclination to be curious, our desire to be seen and heard, our desire to be kind, to be vulnerable...
WE NEED MORE OF THIS. God bless you. The two guys could be friends, they lasted until the night, impressive. I think they're really engaged into the conversation, they are two sides of point of view for me, it's a lot. Great video
Just goes to show - we really don't have to be strangers. I loved all those people.
What a moving video this was. We hear that so many people are lonely and friendless and in dire need of human contact. How beautiful it is to hear people empathizing and relating to each other on a human level. The partition was great because people are so used to talking to or through a screen. Thank you!!!💖💯
