I also read something recently about how if you don’t carry “it” with you, you won’t find “it” when you get there. It resonates a lot with what you said about spending summer waiting for autumn and spending autumn nostalgic for summer
ahhh listening to you talk about this so openly is SO reassuring and refreshing as someone who is always worried about the future 🥺 sending you so much love
I dont think I've ever related to a video or a thing so much as I have right now. I literally thought I was the only one who did this and it's kind of weird to see that you think the same. ugh, I feel like you've just verbalised everything that has been going on in my brain.
waaiit cos you’re onto something!! the amount of times i’ll miss a time of my life or certain aspects of my life that was literally awful, cos i literally romanticise everything in my past 🙄 it’s like i get memory loss of all the bad stuff that happened - i think being aware of it is good though cos you realise the importance of being present and appreciating the moment you’re in
I felt this so much! I always catch myself romanticising a specific time in my life and looking at photos of it then having to remind myself I was really unwell or unhappy at that time?
hoping you’re ok! i completely understand and empathise with you regarding everything that you said in this video. it’s really reassuring to hear someone else saying the exact thing you’re experiencing, so thank you for that!! i’m so appreciative of your videos, whether that’s once a week or once a year, i would much rather you prioritise yourself! sending all my love and virtual hugs
i don’t know if this will help, but if you don’t won’t to journal anything, use your voice recordings! sometimes it feels nice to rant about something when you don’t feel like writing it down. so i usually pull out my voice recordings and start recording and sometimes it can last for hours. it’s really therapeutic and a great alternative for writing!
this is the perfect video to watch at 1am while having an existential crisis:) but i 100% get where you’re coming from, its insane but i know whenever i’m going through something but have it documented in my memories, i can’t help but feel a sense of wishing to go back,, is it just the bittersweetness of nostalgia? i have no idea the way we have feelings associated with the different times in our lives too, usually one emotion for a period of time,, i don’t know how to explain it ,, i’m so sleep deprived rn:,) i’m just rambling
Listening to you talk about something I never really identified but do was strangely comforting and really nice x I started college and I really am trying to get through the weeks with little enjoyment and stress but I hope your okay and don't worry about uploading quickly. We'll be waiting patiently 😊
All i can say is nostalgia is such a tricky thing. I find myself looking back at the beginning of lock down, and feeling so hopeless knowing now what i would go through. I had to leave a school i used to love, lost contact with a friend from there, and go through some really crappy emotions.I’m so different now, i even look very different than a year ago, and that’s normal but it’s so scary. And then i realize that our generation is all going to be physiologically affected in some way because of this stupid pandemic. It’s so hard to keep balance of being in past, the present and the future. But i do know that i (and u to Ellie) need to cut ourselves some slack for not getting that balance right lol Idk what this was but i hope ur having a lovely moment, and if not, i hope u will cut ur self some slack lol
I really want to thank you for making these videos because they really help me understand my feelings as well. I he what you make and it just helps me cope with the past. Thank you
Hi ellie, I’m learning English and I really love your accent, I wonder if the next videos can have a subtitle on it, it will be easy for me to imitate your accent. Thank you! Have a nice day 💗💗
