Thankss as always for the supprt on these! My new song comes out on Thursday, I would luv for it to be able reach as many people as possible who are still left int he dark like I felt, buying and pre-ordering the song on iTunes and bandcamp here: renmakesmusic.lnk.to/Troubles is the best way to help make that achievable. Love x
So how many people have reached out to make a movie out of your life through the #1 album? Definitely could see it. Who would play Ren? Thinking like Timothée Chalamet...who could play young or into the 30s. who would everyone else choose to play Ren? Or would we just have Ren play himself?
Hey Little Bro. i think You wetre heading the right way but the Gut People shud have given You an Additive, NOT an Antibio. Your Natural gut was telling You Something about your Illness and the Doc. killed the Messenger. I started watching you cuz of a Family Resemblance, I think I know what is Wrong and it is in Your Gut. Your Missing or are Low on Certain Bacteria and that is the Cause.
You left out the part when you met up with Sam that day that not only did you offer him to sing through your amp whilst you played guitar, but that you also said he could keep all the money both of you made, and you kept that promise. There isn't a jealous or greedy bone in your body - you are generous, selfless and inspirational in every way and I cannot think of a better role model in our world right now to show how humanity can make this world feel a better place
@@Hexenkind1 I know he wouldn't have, which is why I felt the need to let people know for him as it just speaks volumes about the kinda guy Ren is & why we love him
The comparison of Sam being Ren living on an alternate reality where he never got sick got me. His strength to not feel jealous, but proud is so inspiring
Is there a difference between jealousy and envy? Iv been jealous of some friends lives but I happy for them. I didn't want me to have whatever was instead of them. It was more that I wanted the same things. I always use envy as when some1 is jealous because they want what u have but don't want u to have it either. (Sorry for waffling and prob not making sense)
@@Tommy-123, I think of envy as wishing you had something, but not wishing for your friend not to have it. I think of jealousy as more pernicious, but maybe neither of us have found the right words. I just looked it up. Jealousy is a feeling of resentment or bitterness towards the person who has what you want. Envy is a mixture of admiration and discontent, without malicious feelings towards the friend.
Being genuinely happy for another person speaks volumes as a human. The sense of contentment you feel is definitely an accomplishment but it also shows the wisdom of that person bc they get the way life works and when you see another human that has that same soul…it’s the best feeling in the world and all you want is for that person to shine & when they do it’s as if you are seeing yourself shine. 🥰 it takes a lot of disappointments in life to have that type of compassion. ❤️
ME takes away so much & makes the world very small. The overwhelming feeling is grief (tho it took me many years to realise this) & as the world gets smaller the grief grows. There isn’t enough energy to be jealous. Emotions good & bad burn through energy at lightening speed. So when good stuff happens, when others create, achieve, live out their dreams, do anything that touches your heart or warms your soul it’s as joyful & pure as it gets so there is no room for anything else.
Damn this was maybe the biggest rollercoaster so far. From the first meeting with Sam and Connor, to the creepiest “therapist”, to your sister secretly setting you up and someone somehow managing to sleep on a shelf in a wardrobe, and finally to more loss as you lost multiple friends from the chronic illness community. What a life you have had. Thank you for sharing your story. Thank you for being such a great voice for the missing. You truly have the strength of a mountain and the heart of a lion ❤️🦁 I hope you don’t forget to look after yourself through all this 🫂
Patience is my favorite of his! I started a piece on canvas with a night scene of mountains near the sea with a lion on the bank and a heart on it's chest and a shieth on the sand!
I turned 32, fell down getting out of bed and for the next five years went without diagnosis for why I couldn't walk. 15 years later after a hellish journey I am learning to fence and going to the gym every day. Your story feels so personal and relatable, thank you for telling it.
Wife of an ME/CFS warrior here. The documentary Unrest is powerful and tells it like it is. More people should definitely watch it, especially health professionals. Jennifer Brea is amazing and Ren you are awesome for doing this. Also, I loved Patience - those beautiful words helped me through a difficult time when my hubby just got diagnosed, in 2020. We are doing better now, with love and humour and refusing to give up hope that he will one day recover. Loads of love to you ❤❤❤ Sorry I'm so slow to comment, sometimes I find it hard to 🫣😊❤️
"95% of my time in my bedroom" Goddamn that line hit me. Shout out to all those with chronic illness and introverts in general. Remember - you don't have to have a chronic illness to have social phobia. We all have a story that SHOULD be shared with other people. Never forget that either. ❤❤❤
" You can't stop a wave, but you can learn to surf it! " This is one my favorite quotes of yours and it has stuck with me.Life is definitely something you need to find balance to navigate through and you do it very well. Continue being the waviest guy Ren! You're helping people navigate. Thank you! And patience is my favorite!❤
@@woodywoodman2319😉I listen to his words. I love hearing him talk about life! The " Peace" post he did a while back and that beautiful article he wrote called " heart is where the home is" really just made me want to try harder! I admire Ren a lot!
"You can't stop the waves but you can learn to surf" is what an old lady I knew years ago used to say. It's been a saying in the new age movement for a long time.
I wrote a slight variation on this after first hearing "Hi Ren". I've shared it a few times, felt it worth sharing again with you. "I suffer, therefore I am... but I will not relent... and I will learn to ride the waves".
Your story is hitting hard as a 32 year old with severe pain, fatigue and brain fog from long covid(which gets treated exactly like ME; "have you heard this magical thing called pacing and breathing slowly?"). I was lucky and had an amazing time in my twenties but I went from running 50km a week, doing martial arts, cycling, hiking *everything* to well, being stuck in my bed with ME/fibromyalgia symptoms and GP's who refuse to do anything because my blood tests are normal. Thank you for giving us chronically ill people a voice and strength of the knowledge we're not alone 💜
I can understand totally. What gets me is not the fact that they don’t know how to treat, or actually know what’s going on. It’s their denial of the overall ignorance they have and because of the ignorance they just dismiss people. They have many consultants nowadays, (normally surgeons) and unless there is something they can operate on , or operate on unnecessarily, their interest diminishes. Also, the fact they Only treat the one thing they see, the one thing/part of the body they are trained on, and ignore anything else, not seeing the whole person or that the one thing may be part of a greater thing.. one day people will be seen as a whole being with all parts being seen as that what they need to function properly.
Curious to know if you've explored Lyme -- much of ME is unfortunately misdiagnosed and is frequently an underlying Lyme concern or co-infection. I hope healing comes for you 🙏 keep hopeful.
@@erinweeks89 I considered it for sure! I'm a biologist but I've not had a tick since 2018(in an area without Lyme) and ticks from areas with Lyme would be prior to 2013. At the moment I'm fighting with my GP to get referred for an MRI as I have ms on both sides of the family and almost all the symptoms!
I’m always struck by the repressed frustration and anger in the words “although you test me MY GOD” every time I listen to this song. I think it’s this spirit that helped push Ren to keep going. ❤
Ren….Ren. You take the deepest, darkest time of your illness and you contrast it. You give THAT MUCH hope, kindness, understanding. You matter so much. You MATTER so much. Thank you. Never stop.
I remember the CNN anchor Jack Tapper who's daughter was misdiagnosed in emergency room while appendix was rupturing, infection and toxicity started to spread and attack her organs, finally she was diagnosed and treated after almost dying, Ren this was a year ago and proves how much the world needs to here every word you have to say.. this is your purpose and honor...
Your strength, courage, and hope are an inspiration! I love the story of how you and Sam met. Your kindness and generosity shine through so vividly. Those moments of serendipity are truly special and I don’t think they were merely coincidences. Thank you for sharing your journey. We love you! 💕🫂💕
I'm crying with you because you are speaking so much to my experience in the medical machine. I felt like a guinea pig that all these specialists were experimenting on. Chronic illnesses are exactly what you've described. All the nuanced daily trials and tribulations. You are so talented and brave ♥️ much love
I am deeply caught in the whole Chapters stuff but the part about faith hit me hard and off guard. It is so so so relatable! Including some kind of jealousy! Wow! 💙
I was gifted full blown Chron's Disease when i turned 30. By 32 i sent my Harley off a curve into a 15ft deep ditch. Which resultes in 3 major surgeries in a year. That was 2019. 2020 brought that virus and a choice in love, that taught me a lot about myself, suffering, and boundaries. Along with losing my brother in 2022... 2 years in the mountains alone did me well. Now im back in my hometown helping take care of my Grandmother and Dad. Enjoying the things i took for granted when i was younger. I still have health issues, but it seems so much easier to deal with now. I think i finally got to a point of peace, and having survived so much already, i rarely lose it... When i do, it doesn't take me long to get it back; and that in itself is a lesson and blessing.
I found you during the MevsME days, and saw firsthand how much of yourself you sent outward to others. I'm glad you found the strength to pull back and invest that energy in healing, resting, and living. You deserve every ounce of vitality and freedom that has finally found you. And so do we all. Hopefully your story and Troubles will go some way towards getting the help everyone needs to live well with this cruel illness. But you do not owe us your peace of mind, or your energy, and I hope you and those around you can protect it. ❤
When you talk about your journey to search for healing through spiritual means. All I can say is if anybody ever experienced the things that i personally have experienced that person would become a believer in Jesus. Not necessarily a certain religion but have a relationship with. Too much proof he is 100 percent real to me.
Since I met you, I no longer feel completely alone. Your music gives me support. Hold can no longer hold me. Being held, the heart hurts a little less, always hurts as much as with open heart surgery... freefall
Ren... Your courage to put all of this out there in such an honest, raw and vulnerable way has moved me deeply. Your strength to go through all of this and still have hope and still believe that there are things worth fighting for and still put in the work, advocate for people with no voice and try to create a better world is awe-inspiring. I don't know how you do it. I genuinely hope that the hardest years of your life are the ones that have already gone and that you get to experience more kindness, beauty, love and peace in the years to come. Thank you for being you.
Ren You gave me the strength to continue when my mind didn't want to continue surviving, you managed to find a way of verbalizing all the thoughts i wish i was able to. I'm sure my experience is similar to many MANY others in the community, but while listening to your story & how you never seem to give up, regardless of the hurdles god threw in ur way, Listening to you're music it makes me feel like you've become the tide that lifts all our ships, here in this community. So thank you Ren for sharing your story & that showing your weakness teaching some of us to be strong along the way❤
Ren lost me at the whole story of meeting Sam and Connor. That was beautiful. What a heart ❤️ this young lad has, so open, so forthright. Can't you just feel the release ren is getting from all this , he's bottled all of this up and we are privileged that he's sharing it all with us. A true good Samaritan, and just an absolute legend. An inspiring human being, I love ren , massively proud of his courage , determination and warmth. And now his well deserved success. What a guy
Baby reindeer reminded me of Ren because it was new, honest, brutal, fresh, raw, talented and brilliant. Ren just reminded me of baby reindeer in a different way. Eerie… Thank you for sharing your whole story Ren
Loving these stories. Not loving tat you've been through so much drama in such a short time. Sad to hear how people used your pain to try to manipulate you. I'm so greatful to have found your music. Geeatful for the beautiful people I've met through you. Funny how life works. Be well Ren ❤
What can I say? The medical profession let you down, the alternatives also let you down. I'm familiar with healing, reiki and even the "Nam myoho renge kyo" nonsense. The pseudo shaman gets the biscuit though. Thank you. Very moving. Very healing.
The world is blessed to have Ren. The strength, humility and honesty he demonstrates is very admirable. I hope everyone suffering with such a diminishing disease can find some relief and strength. It needs more voices like Rens to reach aid in research and help. Stay strong. You are loved, wanted and worthwhile. ❤
The correct answer is crying. If this makes you laugh you probably need help urgently. Edit: To be fair there were one or two funny moments but I was a long way from amusement.
I'm conflicted. I'm really enjoying you reading the story (for lack of a better word) of your real-life happenings; but, at the same time, I feel guilty & bad for enjoying your sharing & telling us of such troubling, frustrating, depressing, painful, hurtful, etc. times in your life. Granted, the good and great times that you've shared like 1st & 2nd girlfriends; meeting Sam T. & Connor H.; and still making music here & there are great rays of sunshine shining through the ugly grey & dreary clouds. A lot of people are saying how brave you are for sharing your story. Where I definitely don't disagree with them, I think it's bravest of you that you continued and continue to pursue, search, fight, seek, investigate, research, refocus mentally, hope & more; to keep moving forward to finding answers for your health issues, problems and difficulties; to keep going forward with your music; to actually *_KEEP TRYING_* and *_NOT_* give up; to Live and help others as well!
This chapter hit me good, know that desperation of searching for anything that may help, all manner of crazy places & people that desperation takes you to. Tomorrow I start gamma globulin infusions 🙏🤞🙏🤞 Thank you just feels too little to express my gratitude to you Ren, for sharing your journey & story, through your music, poetry & these chapters, but Thank You is my sentiment amplified by a million hugs of gratefulness ❤
I wish I could really believe, like believers do. They all seem a lot calmer in life. I'm plagued by doubt on a daily basis, or cynical to the core about stuff like this. Too many unanswered questions, too many grey areas for me to give myself to it. Life would be so much easier though...how many times I wished my brain would be simpler, not going at a hundred miles per hour, 24/7. Even curiousity towards basically anything and everything felt like a curse. It must have been hard for you to take on the burden of so many people's suffering, even if you wanted to help them. I feel like you still do it day by day online through comments on your videos. Not sure how much one can take, even if you are in a better state now than before...
Favorite song of all 5 chapters so far. Ive already heard for joe… “Patience” is dope. I felt it was a bit empty/sparse and needed some harmony, so I looked it up on Apple Music. Collab with composer for Rings of Power???? What in the world? That’s quite a feather in your cap, mate! Wicked Sick! It’s easy to look at these chapters as the sad past before the happy present and of course we are looking forward to the Lyme diagnosis!!! But, your story is still being written and there will be troubles in your future as well. Sad to say, but hopefully you can hear advice from this guy I saw online about learning to dance with the two sides of yourself, and learning to relax. Oh wait! That’s you. Or is it all of us? Hi Ren, we love you!
You are an impressive man, multi-talented with off-the-charts intelligence. You’ve had to live your life in a crucible, but you have emerged made of steel. Hardships can be defeating or you can defeat them and you have done so. Separately, I find that when I’m feeling overwhelmed or searching for spiritual strength, it helps to focus on the minuscule miracles that abound all around us. Look into a baby’s eyes when learning something new; see the unfathomable complexity of a few grains of sand; marvel at the color of a new spring leaf. Life is beautiful and I’m reassured of a higher purpose for living whenever I change my focus away from the big and into the small. Many blessings.
it's very comforting hearing the way I feel and how you describe it, I'm 54 now, my mind is about 16. I love your openness and you have helped so much with feeling that I am not alone, I dont know what is wrong with me but everything you describe feels the same, I am suffering now so much I dont know where the comma or apostrophe on this keyboard is.. you have been a beacon of light. I compose music too and write and paint etc. You have helped me through lots of hard times.Thank you Ren, you have helped so many people. To know pain makes you empathetic and you have helped so many people with the same pain. Like you said in a rap,,,, I just want to give you your flowers. Looking forward to your next music. Take care x
Ren, I love that you clung to hope and let it champion you on, even if it cost you emotionally at times. However Ren, your ability for ‘Patience’ helped you through. Patience, when learned is a gift for those that are seekers, but most importantly as I can quite clearly see you already know, it is a lesson that through teaching can be passed to others (Buddhist teach this). However, how those others master patience is down to them. You have passed on this lesson multiple times through how you conduct yourself, through the beautiful truth of your song, this story and through the love you outwardly emanate for others well being. I thank you for this chapter and I offer you in return the meditative mantra of Vajrasattva which I have been mediating on periodically throughout this last year in the wish that your success goes from strength to strength: oṃ vajrasattva samayam anupālaya vajrasattva tvenopatiṣṭha dṛḍho me bhava sutoṣyo me bhava supoṣyo me bhava anurakto me bhava sarvasiddhiṃ me prayaccha sarvakarmasu ca me cittaṃ śreyaḥ kuru hūṃ ha ha ha ha hoḥ bhagavan sarvatathāgatavajra mā me muñca vajrī bhava mahāsamayasattva āḥ English translation: Om - supreme praise. Vajrasattva, ensure your samaya remains intact. Be steadfast in your care of me. Grant me unqualified contentment. Enhance everything that is noble within me. Look after me. Grant me all accomplishments, And in everything I do Ensure my mind is virtuous. hūṃ - Vajrasattva’s wisdom mind. Ha (x4) - These represent the power of the 4 immeasurables, tempowerments, joys; and kāyās. What joy! Blessed One, who embodies all the tathāgatas, Vajra(sattva), Never abandon me! Grant me the realization of vajra nature! Great samayasattva, I am one with you.
Thank you Ren for taking us into your trust, your heart and your soul. I am listening to these chapters intently and it has given me some insight into chronic illness I didn't have before. Hopefully I'll be of more use to society now! Big Love
hearing more about your pain journey, I realize it could have killed you but instead you became Ren. The SuperStar who shines so bright we tell all our friends, "do you know Ren? have you seen Hi Ren?" I tell people I meet in cafes every day. "If you are not an artist, you know one. They will thank you. It's a breakthrough gift."
Tu te livre à nous et je trouve ça très courageux, car dans notre monde où il faut être un "Homme" c'est à contre-sens de ce que nous connaissons. Merci à toi de nous transmettre cette envie de vivre si pure dont les épreuves difficile ont filtrées le meilleur. Tu es un artiste, mais beaucoup plus en réalité, pour moi la vie à toujours était "facile", je n'ai pas traversé tes épreuves, mais ce que tu nous transmets viens nous toucher au plus profond et la sincérité fait appel à l'empathie et à nous remettre en question sur la souffrance de l'autre. Merci d'être toi.
I wish like broken pottery I could fill in all of our cracks with your emotional lava which is gold to us. I may never get better but I love the hope your music gives me. The soundtrack to my life sending many hugs and admiration. Xo Heather ❤
This song has been my daily mantra for a while now . Each day, I stand tall and decide to fight and be strong , I can take all that life throws at me 😊 thankyou 😘
Ren, GenXer here. While I cannot relate specifically to your personal trials your music has been of repeat for months. Your entire discograhpy. Hi Ren to Money Game then I found The Big Push and I'm still digging. I just recorded a video of my neices and nephews in my living room reciting Hi Ren word for word, half of them didn't like it the first time they heard it but they all love Ren because of their old ass uncle LoL...anyway...For me your series on how you got here makes what I have been listening to that more real and impactfull. It's so refreshing to see someone who is real. Searching for the answers in life etc. I do not know if you would change the hell you have been through but from where I am sitting it is what has made you what you are today. It has made you the inspiration that you are for so many. Like would we have the Pink Floyd we have today if Roger Waters father had not died when he was so young?? Seriously, Rogers era of Floyd would have never existed if he had grown up with a father. That is the comparison I make with what you are doing today. I have the utmost respect for you and look forward to everything you put out. Keep it real man. Fn love you bro!!!
I can’t believe you also found Nichiren shu The chant & sound bowls were what held my fascination, if I was to follow a religion it most definitely would be buddhism I think resonance has to be the most powerful, be it a musician like yourself, & god knows you definitely reach into the dark abyss of my soul But also, rhythmic beats/pulse/hum reach my bones Thank you Ren❤
Thank you Ren, for being you, being here and bringing us into your life in such a personal way that isn't seen by other creators!! Keep that head up! Love you!❤
Ren, To any deity that you have cried out to, be it They, It, He, She…. you have been heard. The light is truly upon you and you are glowing !!!! May you always feel that light upon your face & heart & soul. Thank you for continuing to share your story. Many blessings upon you.
I first heard Patience and saw that video just after the album went to No. 1, it brought me to tears and is still possibly my favourite song of yours. To know you now, and the success you'd just achieved, then see this younger version of you with the same fight and determination, it brought your whole journey together and I felt every word of this song. I felt so proud for you and how you kept going, how those words were pure truth, as I knew something the young man singing his truth in the video didn't.. where he is today. What a beautiful series this is.
“What does not kill me makes me stronger” was an aphorism written by Friedrich Nietzsche in his Twilight of the Idols. Ren, You have experienced a lot of Nietzsche moments in your life, and like he, your search goes on. My empathic nature tells me you are still not where you want to be yet, even as you speak and continue to write and record. What is normal? What is healthy? What is Sanity? So many out here are way worse than you perceive. Inside looking out, or outside looking in is one and the same. The boy in the bubble.
Thank you, once again Ren, for sharing! No one in my life has brought me to tears as often as you have but... it's a good thing! 🙂 Not only has it been cathartic, they were frequently tears of happiness too! You've made me laugh and smile as often, if not more! Love you man and all that you create! Thank you for reigniting my love for music and for shining a light in the dark! Keep on keeping on! Much love and respect! ❤🙂❤
REN don’t ever change. You are an absolute angel and walking masterpiece of art through your trials and tribulations it has made you stronger than ever before much love as always thank you 🫶💜
Patience rocks the soul. So raw - utterly bare - and heart-wrenching...your story boiled all the way down. Learning your story and hearing your music has broken our hearts 1,000x. Never ever give up bro - you have always made a difference, and that is crystal. Each day and each step you take is not only for YOU, but for the rest of us too. You have proven we are all beautifully entangled, and that each of us matters. Never forget you are loved!
Ren i have been following you for a while, the world's youth need you. You are inspirational. Take a step back & don't let the demands of everyone on your shoulders for the benefits of others be on yours for a while. Don't burn out ! Gather your thoughts & for your own health & calm. Episode 5 struck a line with me to write this, I had an operation last week to hopefully get some sight back in my right eye & at the last moment the surgeons decided not to do my left eye at the same time. God bless you Ren, you give people hope. 🙏🌟🧡
Ren, you are beautiful inside and out. You are genuine & heart felt. Your candid openess is endearing. You are such a beautiful soul... Dont you worry your forever person is still out there and will love you to pieces...Better times are definitely a head of you. Thank you for sharing another chapter with us. Biggest Hug & Much ❤❤❤
Been living while I’m dying for 15 years now. I can totally relate to much of what you wrote, but I don’t think I could have been so succinct in explaining it. Thanks for the raw peek behind the music.
I am SO GLAD you’re posting all of your music from your other page! These have always been my favorite. I show this song to people all the time. Much love Ren. We’ll all heal one another together. The oneness is all and all are one. I’ll do my part to help you heal by healing myself. ❤
This almost makes me want to start fighting for life again… eh. I’ve largely given up the last 3 years. Hit a whole new state of numb when I ended in a wheelchair and was no longer able to pretend to care for myself or animals . I miss fighting for life in ways. I miss those moments of breakthrough and seeing flashes of color. The mental numbness has been the closest thing to rest I have gotten in the past 12 years or so since I had to acknowledge i was ill. I do indeed miss trying to exist, trying to hold on to life, or at least what assembly of it I can grasp. Eh, you definitely make me think.
Something struck me in your story (and you're a wonderful story teller -- not my forte). You say you wanted to conquer the evil (sorry for misquoting). It's struck me that I said something similar years ago and have been "paying" for it since..... Such a great desire requires great suffering --- and believe you me, I'm still dizzy with confusion at the calamities that have since befallen me. Don't give up hope. This is all in answer to that desire. It will be clear when it is all over. You're not alone nor is it meaningless, even though seems hopelessly so at times The light is infinitely times greater than the darkness even though all one now sees are clouds thicker than starless night
Wow, Ren, so sweet to hear the story of how you met Sam & Connor 💗 I absolutely love the way you are sharing your heart with us and allowing us to see your vulnerability. It’s really remarkable 🙏💗 what a gift to the world you are!
Such an inspiring, heartbreaking story. Love that you can find some humour in parts of it. I'm so proud of you for sharing your story. Thank you for having the strength to survive and I wish you nothing but love, light, health and happiness 💜💜💜💜💜
Wow Ren, the more you open up your life The More Many of us have somewhat walked that Path. You've been Created in Pure Perfection as Our Gift From GOD for Us to Love Because You Know & Understand Our affections. The World is Yours Thank You ❣️
This is so hard to watch. Feeling such empathy for Ren, and so many memories of my past, and present wrapped up in my own parallel story. It’s cathartic, but it’s not easy.
I had to stop at the 7th minute to write to you and thank you profusely for telling your story as it is mine as well .. just with different characters and different details. I am loving every minute of it, what a story, what a storyteller, and the music, ... my God ... Thank you for this man's heart of a lion ❤
What a life for someone who’s so young. It makes me feel incredibly privileged and lucky to not have had an illness like this. My physical illnesses now are manageable, I’ve done the younger years stuff to an extent before it hit me more. Also, I love the song “patience”. ❤
Wow I remember watching this documentary years ago and heartbreaking for the lad and his guitar with so much talent. I'm so happy you're doing what you love now and reaching so many people. Thankyou for being a voice ❤️
I have always avoided institutional religions, but in the past I wanted to believe in something, I went to an astrologer, a kinesiologist and countless other places, but my disbelief only grew stronger. I don't believe in paid help, because I feel that you can't buy empathy and sincere interest for money. I really like this song and recommend it to patients.
I stumbled upon your music through blind eyed back in 2018 and instantly fell in love with love music part 2 which made me listen to all of your music for the next 6 years ever since and feeling deeply connected. It‘s impressive how life works out sometimes, like there are a lot o serendipitous moments in your story which absolutely changed everything. Thank you for sharing your story!
Thank you for showing the people left in the dark, that they aren't alone and that it's possible to get better. I'm still in that dark spot myself, but these videos are validating, comforting and give me something to believe in, so thank you Ren❤️. hope you are doing okay!
Watched “Unrest” at your recommendation. I was brought to thinking about what’s going on around me and people that are missing…. It’s a painful but important lesson. Thank you.
everything in this video is what led me to get to know Ren and be a fan some years ago, i was on youtube i rarely check out random music on youtube, my sister played me a Sam tompkins song months before loved them but they didn't get stuck in my mind so that day i saw a video of Ren and Sam tompkins busking it's one of their most famous ones i didn't know it was even the sam tompkins my sister played for me before but weirdly I checked out the video and i was OBSESSED i couldn't believe how 2 ppl on the street sound this good but i showed it to me sisters cuz that how it goes and Ren caught both of their attention 😅 while tbh i was more mesmerized by Sam like he sounded insane so i took a dive into his music then i think a week after i was like i need to check out that guy that was with him too so i did i checked few songs from Ren's music and i absolutely loved it i was staring to catch that there are deep feelings and stories behind it so i related to it so much and felt like i wanna know more about Ren and his story so i googled him and stumbled around his M.E vlogs on fb and God like i just kept watching one after another till i watch the one that I believe caught the most attention and it broke me i cried for like half an hr i couldn't remember the last time i felt this bad and cried this much for a stranger i didn't know i felt horrible for what he went through i was a bit relieved to know that these vids were from some years back so there was a possibility that he maybe found a way to get better, i prayed for it and thats how my Ren journey began and i was more amazed the more i knew more about him i was in shock to learn how much he overcame and how he fought for his life i felt inspired that if he went through this hell and kept going maybe i can too, and fast forward to today and i couldn't be more proud of Ren and where he is

Ren, half way through I was amazed how you made the uncomfortable tender, yet palatable. Then you as a kid sang. "I have the strength of a mountain ", and I wept. Knowing that those words were proclaimed while you were currently drowning in a sea of uncertainty was heartbreaking, powerful, moving and inspiring... I too have made my rounds spiritually. When I left my childhood faith at 21, I felt free at first, but then envied those foolish enough to believe. I eventually came back to faith, and that too was challenged by a common skepticism as you. I found that any books of the Bible that got black-balled spoke of reincarnation. I suppose it's hard to control the masses if we believe we can just do better next time. I've currently landed on Jesus is my favorite guru and reincarnation seems logically merciful. After all, we made it into this body once. What's so crazy about thinking it could happen again. That and there's something inside me that feels eternal. And given your resolve, I bet you feel that too. Anyway. I want to say that I love you, but that seems odd and intrusive. So as one who proclaims my love to family and friends freely, I'll say that I have love for you - in like - a cool aunt way. And if I was your aunt, I be your favorite because I'm cool like that! Thanks again for your soul offering. I'm here for it. Much love ❤️ Sue
