like I said in the video: living for yourself may not be possible to everyone due to the risks it involves. However, living for yourself can come in tiny ways. The tiny things you do for yourself can slowly build your confidence (you might not even realize it). Tiny things leads to big things. I believe happiness really comes from the little things and moments.
You only live once. You really do. This journey and the things you finally realized you wanted to do, may be really lonely. Your loved ones or parents or friends may not be there to support you. They might not believe you will even make it to be honest. They may support you at the finish line but not on the journey. It is a hard pill to swallow. This path you take on with have consequences that you will have to deal with. But remember you are capable. Remember that you finally decided to accept your passions and that is a big step. The road down requires discipline and hard work. It's a path you will be carving for yourself and by yourself.
This may be the first time you are making a decision for yourself in such a shameless way and you may be terrified. But, what is courage if you're not scared? To that, I say it do it scared. This journey is scary but it can also be just a little bit exciting. Among this fear, there may be this tiny excitement of going for something new and unexpected and knowing full well all you do right now is all for yourself and the acceptance of you. That thought may bring you a little comfort among the chaos. ily.
I will see you all next weekend!

As a 31 yr old Filipina, born and raised with Asian parents, I want you to know that I feel you. I really felt your sentiments. I became a nurse and work as a nurse for more than a decade now just to please my whole family. I love art. My only dream in life is to draw draw draw.. but everyone in the family is a nurse. 2 yes ago was diagnosed with thyroid cancer stage 1, just then I realized I want to live for myself. I'm just done with nursing. Life is short Imma live it well.

I totally understand you! I'm brazilian, my dad wanted me to be a Nurse, so I graduated in nursing, but I've always wanted to study Literature and Linguistics. Now, in my 30s, I'm studying it, and it's like a dream come true! I hope you get to do what you want, like you said, life is short! Best wishes!❤

@Mobirin Год назад

@@naiarasantanasantos1430 I'm glad you we're able to do it. I am still saving for now but praying to embark on the full time art career by next year, after I pay all my debts. I am happy for you, I hope to follow my passion soon too!

hi. i am proud of you. and i want to share my story. i am a nurse, too. natigil dahil nag ka anxiety sa pagiging nurse since di rin yun ang gusto kong gawin. a few months ago i stàrted my art career dahil yun din ang gusto ko, i started selling my paintings but unfortunately di nag work but i am not losing hope. ipagpapatuloy ko pa rin, but as of now i am planting fruits and vegetables para may income kahit papaano and i realized sobrang enjoy pala mag garden, like i am motivated na bumangon sa umaga. yun lang. proud ako sa naging desisyon mo. let's do the things that make us happy so that our soul will be happy, too. take care.

I started tearing up at the same time when you started explaining how nobody asked or cared about what you wanted. It’s so sad to think for how long someone can neglect their wants to a point where they feel like they can’t even think for themselves. I want to hug my younger self as well (.づ◡﹏◡)づ.

@fairyrae_ Год назад

This whole series has been emotional for me so far because I can relate so much to this. I'm currently 27 and I'm in this stage in my life right now. It's been a long journey of self-doubt and worrying about my future and having to live on this road of perfection because of the eyes that were upon the younger me. Restricting most of my dreams because of the fear of failure and not living up to the expectations of others. I do wish I could go back and give my younger self the biggest hug because honestly, she was so harsh on herself and stressed the fuck out. But now, I've started living for myself and finding my identity and now I've started taking tiny steps into my bigger ones and I feel a little more happier. It's still a long journey but so far, I'm happy to be taking the necessary steps to live and show up for myself.❤

@AnimeFreakpz Год назад

Awww I’m in the same spot and I’m the same age too! But I still have a long way to go because I suffer from anxiety and am also scared of failure which is holding me back. I want to push myself harder to try and achieve what I want even if I don’t get it, at least I know that I tried and won’t regret trying which is better than not doing anything about it. I hope the best for you! 💕

@fairyrae_ Год назад

@JjBianca Год назад

I know the feeling and the life you're talking about. I'm almost 30 and I'm feeling tired of everything most of the time lately. The truth is that I have to live my life taking care of myself and when it's not about others and their approval, I kinda get "lazy" to make things happen. 80% of my decisions or goals were about others always. Their approval, love, admiration, pride, public image and so on. And today my eyes are watering when I see such videos and life experiences similar to mine. And I'm tired to be tired and unhappy all the time. Just tired. Let's make our life better and take care of that better ❤

And it's okay if there are no people behind you rooting for you. loads of love and wishes for your school to start again. ♥

"talent can get you far, but hard work can get you farther" SO TRUEEE my bff is the most talented artist i've ever seen, yet she failed her art class. why? because she didn't put a single ounce of effort into her work, never showed up for herself and procrastinated, meanwhile those who weren't nearly as good got As and Bs because of their consistent hard work. that truly showed me the power of resilience!! chase your dream people, you can do it

It just hit me when u said "You'll only live once". People always says that & I really never cared. But when you said "I'm 22 now & I'll never be 18 or 19 again" THAT'S when it hit me. Cuz I'm 24 now and I lived for others up until now. And when am I gonna live for myself? And what if I'm unfortunate and die young? So I'll never lived for myself? Via, thank you for making this video. Thanks for talking some sense to me ❤

@byrabia Год назад

omg i feel you so much, i’m 24 too and i’ve always and still kinda am lived for others and worried that they’ll think less of me if I did a certain study or job that I really wanted to do. Years go by so fast and its hard to catch up sometimes. But as Via said the little changes will make difference and we’ll feel ourselves lighter when we don’t worry about how others will think of us as.

@lilia_casburn Год назад

Honestly, I find myself the opposite; nobody is pressuring me to lead a certain life, but I find that the issue. I search for people to tell me what to do, and find it easier to follow what they think is best, as if that’s better than my own judgement because I’m not sure what I want and I’m afraid of making those mistakes (which indefinitely come). Anyway thanks for the great video ❤❤

@anuabraham5823 11 месяцев назад

THIS. I've always wanted someone to tell me what to do so i won't be weighed down by my own decisions. I currently took a course i want to do but i'm not at all sure if that will work out for me in the future. I feel constantly doubtful and scared about my decision. I just hope it works out somehow and i will be less anxious.

@sheevaneebais. 11 месяцев назад

That's because you don't know yourself. Do things because you want to do it not because you should do it! In the end the only one who truly benefits is you. You are the one who will reap most of the rewards and whose life will change the most due to your own actions. Not because it is the best idea in the world, but because you chose to do it. Hope it helps❤

@widowswail888 9 месяцев назад

I’m the same way and I think it’s exactly because of what Via mentioned in this video; taking accountability. I suppose of other people told us what to do, everything will be easy right? We don’t have to put in much work in discovering things for ourselves. On the flip side, if people told me what to do, would it align with my visions for myself or would it drag me farther away from who I envisioned my self to be? I’m 27 yo almost 28 and I still struggle with this too. I do feel like I’ve been wasting my time though I do also believe that there’s not a specific rigid timeline to someone’s life. Well, here’s to living and growing.

@angeL_ocracy 11 месяцев назад

Thank you so, so, much. I’m 16 years old, and I’m too scared to do anything for myself. I feel as if I step one foot outside my house, I’m going to get shot or sexually assaulted, because that’s the mindset my Haitian parents put onto me. I understand that they care, but I have absolutely no sense of independence because they’ve always kept me sheltered. Whenever I try to do something by myself it almost always turns out horrible. I don’t trust myself, because I’m afraid of making mistakes and looking stupid. However, this video helped me realize that I am capable of doing things, I just have to stop blaming myself for everything that goes mildly wrong. Yes I’m scared, and yes I don’t have a set idea on what I want to do in my life, but I’m glad that I’m aware of the interests I have and that I have people out there who’ll support me in what I do. I want to rebrand my RU-vid channel, I want to create my own animated TV show, I want to go into voice acting, I want to draw more, I want to write more, there’s so much I want to do in my life. I’m starting off slow by deleting all of my social media (except for RU-vid and Discord), and hopefully I’ll become more productive and strive for the things I so desperately want to accomplish.

@mainlyava 11 месяцев назад

Oh. Em. Gee. I relate to you soo so much, 😭. My Haitian parents sheltered me so much, (they still kinda do) and my personality definitely changed due to it. Like my parents always telling me to stay to myself, or warning me of mistakes instead of letting me go throughout life experiencing the mistakes, and learning from it. It’s great at times, but others..? Not so much. I used to feel like you as well, i used to be afraid of looking stupid. But one day I jus stopped caring soo much..like YOLO! This summer I also want to write more, and do other things. Anywaysss, I hope voice acting and RU-vid goes well for you❤. I hear you.

Thank you for this, yesterday was supposedly high school prom and I didn’t go (as a senior) - part of me felt that I was missing a keystone moment of high school, reflecting on my lack of fulfilling relationships, and now seeing your video I realize that I have simply been latching so tightly onto the fabricated traditions of high school imposed upon us by someone else. I’m learning to find comfort in my own definition of happiness which ultimately does not rely on these traditions, holidays, or whatever you want to call them. I’m spite of what other people say I should do.

I should have realised that it was ok if I didn't want to go in the first place, bc then I was pretty lonely after that. Either way, just know that there's nothing wrong with missing prom and in my case, feeling lonely in a place you expect to have fun in. ❤

@LyssieLysse Год назад

I’m 33 and I feel like half of my life has passed me by just from pleasing other people. I wanted to go to art/fashion school after high school, but everyone put pressure on me to become the first doctor in the family. When I tell y’all I burnt out the first month of freshman year! My grades first quarter of biology major was so bad that I got SUPER depressed, moved back home, and settled for another school in my hometown (bad idea). I switched my major again before junior year and (barely) graduated with a bachelor of arts and I felt great about it, but I was still depressed + anxious from the pressure put on by my parents and myself to find a great job. That never happened and to this day I’m working a job I’m not thrilled about, but I need it to pay off my debt. With each passing day I feel my true Self emerging and I’m tired of pushing Her down, tired of ignoring that She’s there. I’m not a doctor (and after working where I’m currently working I don’t want to be one anymore), never will be one. I am Me and no job, accolades, etc. can define that.

@laene69 Год назад

7:09 this hit me. tbh this entire video hit me. the most fucked up thing about this entire feeling is that “we” (everyone going through these struggles) know what to do but it’s the action itself that is so daunting. as i’m approaching 22 i’ve been trying to incorporate this mindset into my daily life but like you said. you have to be consistent. and that’s something i feel like i’ve been failing at lately. falling back into what’s “comfortable” but ultimately not what makes ME feel good. so, thanks for the reminder. it’s exactly what i needed to hear rn. and to everyone else feeling lost and scared i’m supporting you from afar. you’ve got this. ❤

It's hard to get the ball rolling on so many passion projects that I left behind out of fear of what others would think but I'm happy that I am finding the courage now. Y'all can do this!

@normapadro420 9 месяцев назад

Hello. I like what you said in your video. I knew what I wanted to do as soon as I could remember. When you are little parents make choices for you, but I learned that I didn't want to be like anyone else. I began to live how I wanted in my teens. While others wore fashionable clothes I wore hand me downs. Once I got older people began to push me away. I just took control, and completed my education. I got into creating things. I got into writing, photography, art, music. I did things that I wanted to do. I created my own world. I live in the world that I want to live now in my own way. As for those that pushed me away I have grown, and am at peace. Life just keeps passing by. The years just keep passing by. It's good to know what you want, and take chances. No body is going to stop you, but yourself. I'm 57 years old now. I had a family member that committed suicide. They always said life is so boring. I never told him anything, because I have never been bored. There are so many things that I can do. What I'm trying to say it this. Finding joy in living is very important. Knowing yourself, and your capabilities is very important. Take care.😊

My parents always tell me to find a job, even though I quit last year due to high stress and depression. They also encourage me to not taking too high of a risk. Those influence really deep-down implants me of what I am today. It seems boring & uneventful. Yes, I got the monthly salary, but I'm working for someone else, it's just felt like something is wrong. I don't want to be that guy in the same "crowd". Now I've been seeking for therapy & stuffs, but Via really nails it. Start from the very small things, even though people judge you for it. Especially my parents, every single damn day.

@gigistyles7239 Год назад

Wow, this hits right on the spot❣ I'm 25 living with my parents and I wanted to do the things I really want, wear whatever I want, style my outfit, etc. But I can't. Mama decides everything for me, and whenever I try to say "No", she's mad for instance, I wanted to try this new style of outfit and she's like No, you should wear this ad that and I don't even have "eye" to see if it suits me or not. So as a result, I would wear the outfit she picks for me and would go on with my day uncomfortable. I love my parents, and I respect them a lot. But I can now see that they don't really support me with what I want. And I'm also at fault for not standing up for what I want. I'm still trying, taking small steps each day. Anw, thanks for this video Via. This helps me calm my anxiety. I know I can make it.

Since I did, I've definitely felt the same way, stressed out and terrified but so lucky to have loving and supportive friends surrounding me, and now I'm making friends with the most talented, genuine and nicest people with the same mindset as me and feeling super fulfilled despite not getting a fat paycheck (working on that hehe) DON'T BE AFRAID FELLOW 20+ YEAR OLDS YALL CAN DO IT FRFR

Hi via, I saw your video and I thought it was very good for me. I'm 16 years old and it's only after watching this video that I realized that my life is being controlled by other people and their opinions. I haven't been myself for several years and my 10th grade is being horrible I live with toxic friends . This video showed me that I have to start being me. Thanks for sharing this whit us

@goalchaser._8232 Год назад

When you say “you are going to die some day so is it really worth it to start living your life for someone else?” This statement stuck out for me because I feel that as I’m living with parents but going off to college soon, right now I feel like I’m going to be stuck in one place for a long time. Yet, I know that it will not happen if I work for the life that I want. I know that I can go places and do many things if I truly focus and be consistent to get there.

I have a bad fear of flying but also separation anxiety and it's hard to make decisions for myself without thinking about my family. But you spoke so well and true that I am willing to start small and work my way towards my dreams. I wish you the best of successes as well as everyone who stumbles upon this video the way I did.

Thank you, I am a 18 year old that recently graduated from high school and I am really anxious about the future. My parents usually tell me what I should do w my life. But I am have been feeling lost questioning all of my efforts I've done in life. But you have given me hope in making me believe in myself. You're right with us not being able to know what the future holds. Even if it's really we should do it because just like you said, nobody will live for ourselves. I really would like to live a happy life that I can be proud of, I know I'm not going have the support of my parents but I know I'll be fine. I'll really try my best to be who I want to be. Just like you said, If other people can do it, why can't I? I want to live a happy life. I want to be happy.

I'm 30 years old. THIRTY. It feels so weird to say, because I don't feel it and I barely have been living for myself the last few years, but I recently came across a video that said however old you are in your 20's or 30's that second number is how old you are as an ADULT. So technically speaking I am a 10 year old adult, and that helped me put down shame and give myself more grace. I love that perspective so much and thought I would share. Here's to living for ourselves -stop waiting on others because if there is something I have learned it's to do things even if you don't have someone else to do it with. Enjoy your own company. Go to that concert alone, book a solo trip, take yourself out to eat. Enjoying your own vibe and presence gets easier. Here's to tending to our inner child & living life for ourselves.. the way a toddler does: demanding & unapologetically!

hello via! i’m 15, turning 16 this year :) i’ve been struggling a lot with decision making especially with going to junior college next year and having to choose subjects that will probably benefit my career path next time but my biggest problem is not having a career choice. literally none at all. i’m so lost and i honestly feel really really overwhelmed especially with everything the school has been pushing on us-career talks, day internships etc and while i am incredibly grateful for the opportunities i cannot help but feel a little overwhelmed, lost and anxious. and now that i have to consider junior college and university in the future, i have to think about how i’m going to fund my studies and all that stuff because as an asian kid my parents have already told me that i’m going to have to pay my school fees myself starting from university (which i totally get and i’m not complaining at all) but sometimes i just think about the more privileged people whose parents can afford to sponsor their education journey throughout, and even if all else fails, that money can still help boost the child somewhere into society. but for me, if everything falls apart, my money goes to waste, and i think i’m going to have a lot of trouble trying to get everything back together again, especially in the type of society we are in. i still don’t have answers and solutions to a lot of these problems, but i just wanted to share that what you said in this video has resonated with me deeply. i’m super thankful i stumbled across this video :) thank you via ❤️ and i’m wishing you all the best in your future endeavours. you’re truly one strong and capable person!

@bareumi Год назад

As the eldest child, I often feel pressured to choose my own path. When you said that making your own decisions requires you to commit to it fully, I felt that deep in my soul. As a child, I was always too scared to step out of the state of comfort that my family provided for me. Growing up, they would always make sure that they take care of my needs… just so I can follow the path that they decided, since it’s “safer” that way. I listened, without realising that I could’ve made my own decisions too and fought for it myself. Instead, I would curry favour people around me and made myself regret it in the end. My point is - Since we’re the same age, watching your video (this is my first time seeing your channel) made me realise a few things that I forgot to remind myself. To never lose yourself for others. You put quite an amount of relatable mentions in it, it felt like a friend is giving an advice to me.. without putting me down for it :) thank you for the wonderful video 🤍

Your segment about consequences and how no matter what we do we will face consequences whether good or bad so might as well do what we want to do in order to grow, spoke to me on such a personal level. Like a sign from the universe that it’s finally my time. I’m slowly accepting that I am so capable of anything I want, and this video felt like a warm hug telling me that I’m starting on the right path to self discovery. Thank you Via ♥

I always got ignored by my parents when i built up the courage to express myself and how i feel. they just don't believe in me and put me down a lot. I want to go abroad and get into my dream university and study there. I've always been the type of person to think "it's not meant to be for me" etc etc but i really hate that i can't do what i want to do. It sucks so much. I feel trapped in my own house. I feel like im wasting my whole life, no one irl understands me and its been very difficult to believe in myself.

I really want to quote something from this video but the ENTIRE video is me. Strict parents lead me to being this scaredy-cat who's afraid of trying new things because of their way of thinking ; "this is just waste of time, waste of money". I'm 26 and just changed my job. This new job got me realized when I don't get the recognitions, validations, compliments etc I don't like doing any work, which is really bad. Thank God now I know reason why I was so unmotivated for the past few months. I'm still working on it, while trying new hobbies and lifestyle. I'm done being the same person with the same habit for 20+ years, so I'm actually willing to do something different in my life, for the first time... even though it's a little bit late 😂 Thank you for this video, it really encouraged me more to do everything I want 💜

@CutieKats Год назад

I'm glad this video was suggested to me. At this point in time, I'm at a cross with myself; an identity/existential crisis of sorts. And it's one of those never-ending cycles that come back to haunt me from time to time; one that I was never able to fully express clearly, but you were able to. Not at me getting emotional at a cafe 😅 Everything you said was so relatable. Though I can't say 100% that they're the same reasons for me, I low-key think it is. 7:09 hit me hard -- "you can have your doubts, but do it scared" -- fear is one the main factors of resistance for people, hindering them from reaching their goals. And it is mine. On the rare good days I believe in myself, I can put in all the effort and time into studying. Into managing my small business. But it goes down the drain just as quickly. And I stop. It is so SO hard to stay consistent when I keep thinking about all the ways I can fail. 9:17 "if you don't believe in yourself, who will?"--- it's funny because my friends/family believe me 100% but I can't. It's just me. I'm the one stopping myself in my tracks and resisting my supporters as they push me forward. I think I was being pretty selfish, but I guess I wasn't being selfish/shameless enough. 13:19 THIS. The "do what you want BUT..." : it makes me so frustrated hearing this because for me, it's like they're underhandedly telling me I won't make it. It may just be the twisted way I interpret it due to my frustration with myself (like I'm putting the blame on others for my failure) I didn't mean to emotional dump here, but if you read 'til the end, thanks 😅 I hope to take tiny steps forward. I'm sure to revisit this video again when I'm feeling down again. Thank you for posting this video 💕

@WildermanJNM Год назад

it's crazy that somehow you always seem to make videos of the exact things that are going through my mind at the moment. My whole life I've had that idea of "Oh I want to do this but I'm not allowed" weighing me down, even though if I think about it objectively, nobody was really stopping me from doing the stuff I wanted to do, or telling me I shouldn't do it. In reality it was just me trying to avoid some imaginary judgment from others. So these past couple of months I've been trying to change mindsets, and the best way I can describe it to myself is that I'm gonna do things "without asking anyone for permission". It's crazy that nobody was stopping me, but doing things for myself still feels kind of rebellious in a way. Even though all I'm rebelling against is my own mind.

@Thecheeseisreal04 Год назад

There couldn't have been better timing for this video- exams are in about 2 weeks and I've yet to decide what college I want because my whole life I've been just blindly doing what others want/expect of me, without ever thinking what I want. Always relying on academics for a hint of validation. I never realized how this affected it me until I was completely burnt out and the anxiety that came with it was even worse. But recently I've been more mindful of myself and the things that I want and need- yes I'm still struggling from time to time, but I'm happy with my progress. This video brought me so much comfort and confidence to try and breach the little bubble I'm in and to go after what I want. Acknowledging the hardships and struggles that may come along is somehow reassuring because this is /my/ decision and at the end of the day I'm in control of it (mostly heh) Thank you so much for this- and every other video

@eveningjaguar 11 месяцев назад

I feel like- I would journal- if it wasn’t only going to be depressing and terrifying idk why but when I’m by myself, and open up to my feelings, there’s something, someone, scary that steps out of the dark corners of my mind and they start to say horrible things. And it’s me, I say horrible things, give in to myself, and give up. I’m scared of that awful side of me that just brings everything that I actually believe in to light. They’re horrible things to believe in, but no one can convince me otherwise, my subconscious just accepts everything pessimistic as absolute fact the best I can do to come to term with my feelings is coping through jokes at this point. Then I can feel human, even if just a little bit. I can smile, have some humor and maybe a laugh with friends, who cares if it’s by my expense

When i was younger i had these similar ideas, as long as i'm a good student, as long as i get good grades, as long as i get a job with a nice paycheck everything will be fine. The idea of being perfect to be accepted is still deeply rooted inside me. And while my parents are not forcing to major in a specific field i don't know what i want and what would be right. I feel like i'm making a mistake by going for programming but because i don't know what i actually want i don't know what to do. This journal entry was really helpful for me to understand that if i don't explore what i want now i might get tangeled in a big mess of expectations that were met by the person that was created in my mind and not me.

I've been dealing with a lot of anxiety these last few weeks and also evaluating everything that's been going on in my life, including the people around me. there are so many things i want to do but somehow it seems i'm always waiting for other people's approval to tell me if it's right or not, if i look stupid or if i deserve to be where i am. and I know it's a huge responsibility to put my happiness in someone else's hands, but I couldn't help it. since I started watching your videos I've been motivated to do more things alone and enjoy my own company, something I had lost a long time ago. I'm making significant changes in my routine (like visiting places by myself, starting a new course in another city, exercising every day, and even wearing what makes me feel beautiful) and even though it's baby steps, I feel so much happier because it's what I want to do. I always saw achievements as things that should be huge and I underestimated the little things in life that are also part of this process.I know this is only a start, but for now it's enough for me and that's ok.

@raymondc9513 5 дней назад

I would argue that if you discover your sense of self-worth and self-acceptance, you CAN have the ability live for someone else if that is what you desire. BUT only to a certain degree where you actually know your boundaries and where to stop if someone is trying to use you intentionally or unintentionally. That knowing where you draw the line for yourself in the sand, you can know exactly where to stop and voice your concerns to someone else if you get too close to crossing your own line without actually crossing and ignoring your boundary. In the context of making sacrifices and compromises, that where you ask yourself, how much can you actually move your boundary to a COMFORTABLE point for both people. Depending on the severity of someone's actions or behaviors, I think exceptions, compromises, and some sacrifice can be good, *in moderation*. I am not advocating to let yourself become a doormat, I believe you can absolutely reach a middle ground between wanting to live for someone else and only ever putting yourself first. I firmly believe there are drawbacks to both sides, where only looking out for yourself can be harmful, and always giving yourself away can be just as bad. Wanting to live for someone else, is just something I find purpose in (I get it's not something for everyone and I'm sure people would hard disagree, but that's why I say it's something for me), because of what it gives back to me. And when I do get hurt from wanting to live for someone else, 12:05 this is why I keep going. Just my two-cents, but I do feel what Via touches on throughout the video.

This video put so many things into perspective for me, about living for myself even when there are risks involved (, it also made me wonder, how do you figure out what you should do when it comes down to choosing between doing something for your past/childhood self and doing something for your future self? Like one option is something you as a child wanted to do, but there's no guarantee that it's bring you what you hoped for, whether that be happiness or connection or feeling accomplished; the other one is for you to gain clarity about your future, but there's no guarantee of that either. You are so, so passionate about both, but you can only do one because of the (very real) time constraints, so what do you do?

I'm also in law school..I was never a bad student but i have to say law school is not really my cup of tea..And i'm not sure if i want to give up yet because something in me does want to succeed in this major...BUT i also do know that if i don't make it i'll find another path and start living for myself instead of only thinking about what others might think of me

thank you truly from the bottom of my heart via. i’ve never watched a video before that brought me to tears and i really needed that today after feeling numb and hopeless for too long to remember and being in a limbo of deciding to take a big risk in my life or not. i’m in a similar position to you feeling like i’m coming to these realizations later than i would’ve hoped for but they do count for something and will help us moving forward. big congratulations on your graduation today too, been watching you for a long time and i am so happy to see your growth this past month
