The meaning of life is helping yourself help others.

Happy suicidal awareness day! A day where we support people who are suicidal and remember those that have already been lost💖

Your not boring. I like the way you talk. I have social anxiety. I cope and I try

I like how personal and deep this video is. I believe Wilson is a companion, to which Chuck channels his thoughts, frustrations, and dreams. We all need to meditate from time to time. It’s a must, actually, so we don’t get too caught up with the situations.

I love to do things alone, because it's when I get ideas together and I feel free of being judged by others. Thanks :) Scott for the recording. Blessings!

I started my second year of college three weeks ago with a lot of excitement to be back in an environment that I love with people that i believe love it just as much as I do, and i felt ready to connect. The first week I was really hopeful and was surprised to hear from some classmates from the previous semester but, as days have gone by and ive attempted to hold conversations and be more open, i have found myself hitting a wall of some sorts. I go to a community college so most of the people i meet really just come to class to get work done and leave as soon as they can to run off to other more important commitments. Today in my political science class the professor spoke briefly about our vital need as humans to belong and be seen for who we are, and I almost burst into tears. Since leaving high school I have felt like all aspects of my life have been turned upside down. It wasn't until this summer that I realized that this dark feeling I have been feeling for the past year has been because of loneliness. I am aware of the love my family has for me because time and time again they have been very vocal about it when ive voiced my concerns about this empty feeling. I have tried to explain to them that it is just as important to have a connection with those outside of our familial ties. Hearing you voice these feelings that I thought were only singular to me and my life experience has lifted a great weight off of my heart. I plan to use this awareness to help guide myself in the direction of healing with the company of others instead of feeling like i have to do it all alone. I am gonna keep trying to make these connections ,because despite what my brain tries to tell me, I know I am worthy. I am not really sure that any one will ever read this but if you happen to find this just know that you are not alone in your fear and uncertainty and are worthy of human connection and deserve all that you want and more 🧡

Thank you. God bless you.

Happy Birthday and I couldn't agree more regarding "focus on people, rather than things"

Happy belated birthday my brother. Hang in there you are a guardian angel to all.

when you talk about yourself, it's the most relatable thing ever. It just feels sad, happy, relatable. Cries

Hi, I discovered you recently. I live with depression... All life. Thanks for this videos, and let me tell you, you have so much magic in you're heart, that smile & those beauty eyes. A big hug 🤗 from Mexico 🇲🇽.

One of my favorite movies too! It's about a human being truly realizing what it is to be human. It's struggle. It's pain. It's loss. It's love. It's life. I mean WOW<3

I had a million comments, so I'll make them into topics to be quicker: 1- I thought you said you weren't going to be posting videos to youtube anymore. I don't know what happened, but I'm glad you're actually posting more frequently these last few days. 2- Happy birthday, Scott!! Wish you all the best, always, always, always! 3- I did close my eyes at the first time you said it. Maybe I'm just very disciplined or maybe I've been conditioned by all those meditation mondays. 4- When you told us to imagine something we wanted to do but with someone else, I imagined watching Cast away, because I love movies and I haven't watched this one yet. I'll suggest it in another comment so people can easily see it and maybe like the idea of watching it 'together' online:) 5- That makes so much sense...I've been working on myself for so long and just this morning I was planting some peppers, which is something I wanted to do for a while and I knew it was something good for me, but I felt so unhappy with my life, even though I have such a great life at the moment. It makes so much sense that my problem right now is that I've been doing a lot of great stuff but all by myself, and that I miss having some good company. And I had considered that before but, like you said, it's kind of hard to accept that and admit that. To accept it especially considering everyone around me is usually saying how we shouldn't depend on anyone else, nor base our happiness on other people, because that would be something so fragile and on somebody else's hand. But the way you put it makes it sound perfectly healthy and it just makes sense. Thank you so much! 6- I loved imagining the things I'd like to do with friends who make me feel part of a group, important, comfortable. 7- Thank you so much for you videos, and this one is already on my favorites list! I loved, loved, loved it so much! I'm getting late to class because I wanted to write all of this. Thank you, you're amazing and I'm so happy to hear how happy you are with all the great people you connected with since starting this channel. Kisses and hugs! <3

It’s bizarre. At the age of 39, I have just discovered what I have been missing is human connection, I happened to stumble upon this YouTuber/ video and it confirms my thoughts. Everything is meant to be.

what an eye opener. I have cut off my friends because I didn't think they would want to hear about my troubles, even though I've always wanted to be there for them. Thanks

A year ago i had depression and you helped me the most in that period of time i had no one back then and everything used to trigger my depression I really really appreciate you and want to thank you for everything you do to help others 💖 your videos were the peace that i looked for now i look back at your channel it was the only light in my life again thank you so much💖

I've been thinking the exact same thing and you just confirmed my thoughts with this video. My problem is that it's really hard for me to connect with other people since my personality and way of thinking are so peculiar...

It’s awful and all very true!! I used to have many more people I would hang out with. Everything changes after 30…. People move away, they get married, have kids, drop off the map. After awhile trying to meet up with people becomes too much work. I work during the week and don’t want to put in more work w relationships! The other sad truth is that people are very self-absorbed and only really want to talk about their lives. No one wants to hear about my life or really seems to care.

Thankyou Scott. 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
