Well you're the only RU-vidr to make me cry. Of laughter and sadness. Boy just read your comments when you upload a video! People be waiting on you for months and months and it's like Christmas when you finally upload one. You have a purpose.
Qaadir, I am not sure if you read these anymore, being that you posted this video several years ago, but I want to say that I can't even being to explain to you how close to home your message hit. I feel like at this moment, I am going through what you have once be through. You have given me a better insight on conquering my fears and shortcomings. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for being open and sharing that intimate moment with us. You are the most genuine person that I have encountered on youtube. Thank you, thank you and thank you again. I really do appreciate your messages, the time and the effort that you put into each and every one of your videos. Stay Blessed.
Yes exactly! This is my second time seeing this and I searched everyday and looked through all his videos to find this particular one because it was where I was, not too long ago. I felt alone, worthless and that I didn't have anything to offer anyone and always was extremely rough on myself, very abuse and angry that I was pretty enough and wasn't where I saw my former classmates in high school were and I wallowed in suicidal pain and rivers of tears. I felt that my kids deserved a better mother and that me having two different father's for my two kids was shameful and I punished myself with hate and my children always saw me faking a smile for them and looking disconnect, angry and sad and it affected them deeply. Their love was so strong and endless. I am in the process of loving myself and realizing how I had all the tools within to heal myself. I found out my aching toothache was due to not flossing and brushing correctly. I rushed in every area of my life. So, I am learning to take my time and give my body the attention it deserves and really understood when ppl always say, you lr body is your temple, and my temple Jaden crumbled and was still on displayed. So, I'm bluiding my foundation and learning so much about myself, that I'm slowly falling in love with me and I always thought that was weird when ppl said that was the key to happiness. Slowing down brushing my teeth and flossing, I was in different areas of my mouth, I wasn't aware of and learn that the tongue isn't just used for tasting food but it is a cleaning sponge and I was able to experience why the tongue is the strongest muscle. Really taking my time to bathe by massaging my entire body with natural body scrubs I starting making and using the exfoliating loofah with soap I made improved my skin after one use. I always had bad skin and was self consious becasue of it and stress myself to where it affected my whole body. I also find out while flossing where the root of my pain was coming from and how everything is connected on your body. one thing isn't more important then the other. Finding the root of my toothache came down to my jaw and it was because I don't smile often. I smile and the pain started improving and my headaches I had since 7 was improving also. I never liked my smile and never thought I was beautiful. So, I begin relaxing by wanting to learn more about me. I started learning how to do my own hair, which I was always horrible at and realized how much of an impact my fears had on my life. It caused me to exist rather then live. I cared so much about what ppl thought of me to be accepted becasue I was dependable emotionally because I couldn't give it to myself, convincing myself I was worthless. Omg, no lie but removing a lot of the toxic things plaguing my body has never focused on reality and now I'm conscious and aware. I never knew how intelligent, creative, gifted, beautiful, funny, eccentric and lovable I was, and I was able to see why I kept certain ppl in my life. it was because I'm still holding on to traits within me that is holding me back but I'm holding on from comforting this bad traits fir so long and fearful of how to live without them becasue I won't have anything. That let's me know that I still do.care what ppl think and need to continue digging out my weeds, so I can finally lay down my new stable and strong foundation to build my phenomenal temple on. Then, will I be able to sit on my throne and have a clear vision of the road to travel on my journey! Thank you, so much, Qaadir, for being you and inspiring and impact so many lives living and speaking your truth! #godschild
@ClaudiaSwann You want to know something? I never cry in a public setting and I even debated whether or not to put this post up..and then I thought if I dont post it, I didnt really learn my lesson because Im allowing how other will see my crying ( as a weakness) to dictate my actions. And thank you for your kind words
I swear, I was just asking myself what my purpose in life is, cause I'm feeling defeated. I was led to this vid and every word hit home to me being in tears. You helped me see that, I wasn't allowing myself to put my all into me. I've always struggled with unapologetically being me due to the painful fear of being misunderstood and alone. Qaadir, I see your purpose is to heal. Thank you!💖
You are such a vessel, Qaadir! I can't tell you how much of an impact you've had on me. I feel that we are kindred spirits and have had similar life experiences. I've felt the same way you've felt time and time again. I know this video is old but today was the first time I've seen it and it definitely touched me. 💞
Omg you witch, one minute im watching a video about a wallet, next i know im bawling my eyes out, thank-you Qaadir, you've made me believe we all have a reason to be here. yours is to preach, through music, through speech.
Qaadir....you have definately changed my life. About year ago I was in my freshman year of college and I was so depressed and alone. I had no friends and I was in a dorm room by myself but everyday when I ate lunch I would watch your videos and laugh my ass off. There were times when I felt like I wasnt good enough but your inspiring videos truly gave me the strength to push through and remain in college. Even on this video you have helped me come about my own revelation. I hve been doing the
This video was just what I needed & right on time! You've put exactly what I've been feeling into words I could've only hoped to say. Thanks so much Qaadir for being true, having faith, & giving me hope! God bless.
Qaadir this video comes at the perfect time. During the holidays people get caught up in gifts & presents for the sake of looking good in front of people; basically for their own personal benefit. Keep preaching and living with positive vibes. Cheers!
I'm unemployed, lost my car months ago, am financially in the red, and am going through one of the roughest periods in my life. I literally just walked into my apartment, returning from a grocery store I had to walk to about 5 miles away. Your comments reminded me of what I'm going through, and your message reminded me not to let go... All I can really say is thank you. I'm trying to find the light at the end of the tunnel again... thanks for reminding me that I am capable of it.
Sending you a hug from Phoenix, AZ :) I've been watching you since I was 15 & I'm 17 now If there has been any time you've had to doubt what you're purpose is, just know, you have INSPIRED millions of people. You have TOUCHED millions of people. You've made MILLIONS of people smile ... what could be more rewarding than that? ILYQAADIR
Wow- had tears in my eyes after watching this. Q- you are such a blessing to this world. Your posts have helped brighten my life in so many ways. The ironic timing of this video is that I found a wallet on the street this weekend in San Francisco, and was able to find the owner through Facebook and return it to him. As you said, it's the simple acts of kindness that can really make a difference. The ideas, creativity, humor, and compassion in your videos are an inspiration to us all.
This video came in at the appropriate time. I recently just overcame some mild depression. Thank you so much, Qaadir! You've certainly made a huge impact on my life. Believe it. :) I'll start doing things from solely the kindness of my heart and not expect anything in return. Thanks for the advice.
you are absolutely knowledgeable no matter how anyone thinks you sound or appear. you are a diamond in a rough and i absolutely love your videos. I think at one point we've all felt purposeless but the point of living life is to find your purpose so as long as you're breathing, you still have time. Good luck in your endeavors hun.
Qaadir you dont understand how much this video has touched me, it spoke volumes, you are truly a special person...Keep shining your light and inspiring us!
i wanted to say thank you, this video is so touching, because i went thru and still going thru what you talkd about, i lost my wallet, and when i found itm you made this post, so i think i was meant to see this, and i feel like that everyday about having no pourpose in life, and i truly want to thank you for inspiring me to be better
same thing. I'm a dancer but I have ALWAYS been scared to dance on a team in school so I let other ppl get their shine and always downplay my talent because I'm scared that I'm not good enough. I always worry if I will look stupid or like a bad dancer but I don't dance for others. I dance becuz its what I want to do! I love dance and I don't ever want to let other ppl stop me from getting my shine and showing my talent. Thank you Qaadir.
Qaadir, I admire you for making yourself vulnerable here. I'm proud of you for using your platform to inspire. This was a beautiful message. Thank you hun
I LOVE U! please don't ever question what is your purpose in life. U are wonderful! Things are going to get better Qaadir, the longer we wait to the receive our blessing is just proof of how special those blessings are going to be. Keep ur faith up sweetheart!!!!
This is my favorite video from you. I was crying along with you, because I am in that place right now, and i'm still trying to figure out my purpose. But I know I'm not alone. It's just hard, but I stick it out. I'm so glad you posted this, so touching.
When I logged into You Tube this morning, I never thought I would find inspiration in the form of a video. Thank you Qaadir for sharing yourself and your inspiring words with us all. GOD bless you.
This is STILL very inspiring, and I got so much chills watching this again, because I'm never focused on what I'm doing. My mind is always on what others think. Its crazy. You are very human, and that makes me feel like I'm not alone.
This video has really hit home for me. I've been feeling like this for quite some time now. without purpose..alone..depressed. I'm keeping myself up. I just want to let you know that you are amazing.. ur videos put a smile on my face and they inspire me. U have no idea. god has a plan for you and I. have a happy holiday. from one Q to another.
Qaadir, you a truly a spiritually being. You're a man beyond your years. I have been following you on RU-vid for about a year now and I believe that you are fulfilling your destiny...your purpose for being in this world. Keep doing what you do...being an inspiration and bringing wisdom to others. As long as you know its coming from a good place...you will always be on the right track. I wish light and progress always! (BTW, I wrote this comment before viewing this video. This IS your purpose!)
YOU HELPED ME SO MUCH ! You are very inspiring and touching . Please never stop what you're doing because you are a very good speaker and motivator and coming from a 13 year old girl infront of a computer screen i do say i really appreciate you sharing some of your trials and tribulations with your viewers . God bless and happy holidays ! :) - LOVE , ASIA .
Your wise words and raw emotion really touched me Qaadir...I started to cry myself. I'll always refer back to this video. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
Awwww Qaadir! God will truly bless you because sooooo many of your supporters needed to hear this including myself because i had this SAME conversation with myself last night i kid you not! And i believe you were sent to deliver this message to me and i truly thank you for being so vulnerable to us to really get your message across! Dont you give up and ill do my best to do the same and watch as we BOTH reach the top boo!!!
dang i teared up too. you were speaking some deep truths here in this video and even though lots of people say follow your dreams and always keep going your emotions made it so heartfelt and real. i feel like i know you that much better cuz we feeling the same type of things in our hearts and i think everybody else can vouch for that as well. and know that your videos have entertained me and helped me through hard stuff,
I was crying with you. I so felt this one! I completely understand how you feel, and I had to learn that sometimes God has to break you down so that He can make you whole! So, if you feel broken, then it means that you are about to be made whole and blessed. Stay strong! Keep hope and faith in your life! Remain humble when the blessings come! Love ya!
You made me cry seeing you cry. But you do have a purpose you touch so many lives and brighten up so many people days. Your videos have gotten me through many of days. God will turn things around for you and I will pray for you.
I studied this in a socialogy class and it is referred to as altruism. you are so wonderful and i am so glad that i came across you by chance. much love hunni
this is interesting because when I look at your life from the outside looking in, it seems like your life is extreamly full and you've really got it going on. At times I've felt envious of how fun your life seems. I really a faith in you being a huge success Qaadir, you are truly an inspiration. Thank you.
you made me cry I wanna thank u for that. you made me realize we all have a purpose here in life. Express yourself it's good for the souls. happy holidays to you Qaadir.
I know exactly how you feel, Qaadir. And I'm so glad that you've concluded that a person has to stick in there no matter what because that's not how I was feeling about my situation at all. I want you to know that you do have a purpose and that's to enlighten young minds like myself to be better people or just to brighten someone's cloudy day. Watching you go on about things like this or just about your day makes a difference in the life of the ones watching you, even if only for a small moment.
I've watched so many of your videos. This one touched my heart the most. I just think you're a beautiful person. You have a really wonderful and beautiful soul. I may never meet you in person but I genuinely hope that you will get what your heart desires, corny I know but true. Watching your videos have made me laugh, think, cry etc....just through videos. That's very rare. You are one special being. Peace and love, happy holidays.
I know this video is very old but I have only recently stumbled across your videos, so I have just been binge watching. While I may not always agree with certain things that are said, I truly do enjoy all of the videos I have watched so far, from the old to the new. I want to say that this particular video really means a lot because this was something I really needed to hear. I have been going through a whole lot that I won't go into detail about because it's just too much and I've damn near written an essay already. Watching your videos does cheer me up, so I just want to say thank you for all the laughs and interesting and entertaining content you have given me and thank you for this video especially. 7 years later it is still reaching out and resonating with the boys and girls of the world and things of this nature! (I love when you say that)
your words are amazing!! I really needed this! Let those tears out. Crying is the greatest thing in the world!! Myself and all your subscribers love you and do know you have a purpose in this world!!! Never give up. Great video as always! Happy Holidays Qaadir! : )
You both broke my heart and gave me hope. I'm terribly sorry that you felt that way about yourself, but thank you for your words that will probably help me through the next 2 years of my life. :)
Your music, your style, your creatativity, your honesty - It qll touched and inspired me. I can't believe you pured your heart out and you are amazing.
Awww {{{HUGS}}} that's for you Qaadir! This is a very touching video with an extremely important message for us all. I could feel your emotions right through the screen! I wish you much success in following and capturing your dream, and as the song goes ...Keep your head to the sky!

Aawww qaadir! This whole video really spoke to me! It was like an amazing chapter in the secret or something. I really hope for the best for you and I will pray for you too, somewhere cause I'm not religious, but I'll still pray! Happy holidays and 2011 will be the year for you!
Yes sometimes we are hard on our selves. I would like to tell you that your videos have made me reflect, laugh, cry and gain a greater understanding on some of your subjects. You just don't know how many times I go to some of your funniest videos or even your serious ones and reflected and have gotten some sort of comfort. Whether you know it or not you have served a purpose with your insight and talent. Your an old soul in a young body. Remember you do have a purpose.
im at that point now where im asking myself that same questions "Why am i here" "What is my purpose". Trust me you dont know how much this video lifted me up! I have been so close to giving up on everything and everyone in my life. Thank you soo much for this. Qaadir you helped me so much. This was gods work that i came across this video at this time. im gonna stick it out, continue to be kind and not expect anything back. YOU have an impact. you touched me in a special way today. i cried with u
I hear "stop caring about what other people think, just do you!" allll the time. But only when you said it, did it really mean something, did it really make me want to not care about what other people think. Because of you, my shy ass signed up for an acting class. (: I will NOT drop it & I will TRY, all because of you. =)
everything you said about having a purpose and sometimes feeling like life is going nowhere whilst everyone elses life seems to be moving on really touched a spot with me im in that exaaaact place right now...hunny thankyou i really do feel alot better!
Do you ever let us down with your vids????? HELL NOOO!!! You are needed, wanted, valued, and loved. Just wanna give u a big ol' hugg!!! Thank you for all you do. I love you!!!!!!
Qaadir, baby dont cry. we are here for you, We are all hard on ourselves but the most important thing is that we pick ourseleves up and be strong!! You hit some great points in your videos!! Love ya!!
We truly love and appreciate you Qaadir there's no question that you most definitely have a purpose thanks for your continued words of wisdom and laughter! Happy Holidays and best wishes for a Happy New Year! XO,JW
As I sit and watch this video with tears in my eyes... I just want to say to YOU Qaadir, that whatsoever God has put into YOUR heart.. allow HIM to bring it out in you! :) We were put here to bless others with God's love, and to let others share God's love WITH US! So don't EVER let something or someone pacify your mind and take you away from that... because your words truly spoke right to my soul on TODAY! Amen!!
You have so much wisdom! If you wrote a book I'd most definitely read it because I feel like you have so much to tell people and I really appreciate what you come on here and tell us.
OMG man, Merry Xmas and all that. Oh man, you made me cry right with you, you are such a sweet guy and it just killed me to see you seriously hurt, if only for a minute. Just trust in this much, you just gave anyone who watches this a very priceless xmas gift. I hope people don't misinterpret you when you say be focused on your dreams. Being focused does not mean being selfish necessarily. I also want you to know that what you have found out is a great gift that many never give themselves.
