I love this Ricky! A lot of gold there ~ thanks for sharing 📖

Truly inspirational, you have come along way my friend and are an example, that deep feelers, deep thinkers, deep explores like ourselves, when we do the work and are connected to our true being, we able to thrive in this world and reap the benefits

Looking forward to following your story.Thanks for sharing. 🥾

Good for you bro! And if you're able to get to the Porto area of Portugal it would be awesome to meet up. My retreat centre is not far away. You are very welcome.

HI and thanks for sharing. Elizabeth here. I was in your grief therapy class if I remember correctly. Hope you are doing well with your endeavours since ACAP. Your postt has just validated that seeing my recently discovered needs regarding my symptoms of overwhelm and issues focusing are related to my inner child traumas. Never really been referred to any one for inner child work, from years of seeing psychologists for Anxiety and major depression. I dropped out of acap counselling graduate diploma due to my symptoms, and regret that my struggles have not allowed me to finish my degree . Hooefully i will return to the studies i am very interested. When I hear you talk I start to like myself more. Thank you for sharing and Once again all the best to you Ricki.

❤️ I also hate winter! I resonate with having aspects of life that you cannot get back. I am loving being 36. It can get better and better within for some of us. Not all, and that's okay too. That's why we need each other to lean on through the changing nature of it all.

Great video Ricky, I found this insightful actually. I’m kind of going into the unknown so to speak

Well done. Fun video. Love Matt’s class!

When we going to see a new uplaod, its been a long time....

Well Done my friend ...As you have said to me before ''Some boats are not meant for shore'.... This is not a small win, but a big win. You never mentioned that this is your new place ?

Beautiful analogy, ''Burning the boat''

''Thumbs up for being brave'''

'' The right amount of stress and challenge'' I guess we can try and plan for, but then again, it may not be entirely up to us.

I think you are also talking about taking responsibility here, and having faith in ones self to be able to take on the challenge thats seems to be presented to us, in with regards to be of quality service to others in need.

I recall you once said to me, that ''some ships where not meant/build for the shores''.

Very encouraging ☺️ Thank you!!!

That little deck looked like it was a vibe! Hope your new place is awesome dude, all the best!

Wishing you all the best on this new chapter. I hope to hear how the move and settling in goes.... I wonder today, how many people really take the time to reflect on where they have been living once they leave, you are one of a kind my friend ...

Things moved quickly, only a week ago you found your new place. Would be interested to hear how you managed to find a place, I mean it most likely just all fell into place ?

One of the challenges with this form of self expression just like my KZbin channel, is often of the time we dont mostly get to see the significance, thoughts and feelings that the person who comes across our work may experience.

Good to see you again my friend, we haven't chatted for a while. I think I last heard from you. Good luck for the exhibition, perhaps you can do a follow up on how it goes.... I think its very unique way of expressing creativity, which is what an art gallery is about, but this is something that is unique in its own way.

Helpful stuff thank you!

Yay! Equity and renaturalization.

''Ease gently into things'''

You look so blissful... calming and comforting...

I think you once sent me a picture of nature, and the caption was, ''happiness does have a smell'' ?

You are highly observant and have a deep appreciation for the meaning and significance of change. I really enjoyed the part where you took a moment in reminiscing and reflection , that you felt comfortable to take the time, to not have to talk, but just be present. That was a beautiful moment ....

That potential sneeze had me in a moment of anticipation... and lack of satisfaction, as it can be sometimes so good to have a good sneeze ...🙂

One door closes another one opens. Its like deleting unnecessary/old data on on phones/PC ect, to make space for the new data. We have hopefully learnt and experienced what was needed from the old ''data/story'' it has served its purpose, and is now time for a new experience/data/story.

If I'd quit my job, I could faster write my book.

Steal Like an Artist was an excellent read. A great KZbin video that inspires me to create more is by Mark Rebillet "ANOTHER IDEA"

I think without change, no growth or progress is possible...for better or for worse.

''You never step in the same river twice'' one thing that is for certain is change

Ive seen this view before , from your balcony... ;)

there is only one thing that doesn't CHANGE :p

Can really relate. Thanks for sharing Ricky, your insight is always appreciated. You got this.

Beautiful video... Sincere ... Personal... Charming.. Extreme light energy coming from you my friend...

Congrats on completing your counselling studies....

Its not so easy for me to video record myself. as it is to just do the audio.. Sorry to hear the passing of your girlfriends grandfather , we do learn so much from one anothers passing...

So nice, that it wasnt about how ''good'' the painting was, but that you did it, and completed it.

‘we’re all gonna be happy singing our song, regardless of there’s anyone listening to it’ love the way you put this Ricky! sometimes i procrastinate. i know what i want, how to get there, i just freak out and hold off for no real reason except that i’m afraid. failing forwards. but i will get there. keep sharing your stories! hope to see a boyunderthebridge poem somewhere soon!

Yeah just keep showing up!! Proud of you man

Keep pushing pal! You got this Ricky!!!

Here's what I've learned... it's all about trusting yourself. When you trust yourself, you know you have the tools to handle whatever comes your way. You got this, Ricky! Ya take the leap and if the chute fails on the way down, trust those wings of yours. They're there. I know 😉

Very helpful - thanks!
