I learned something about empathy , It's so true that the pain a child feels may seem to us, over dramatic but, in truth, it very well may be the MOST painful thing the child has endured in life this far. Thank you for sharing that . It resonated with me.

Yes as a new teacher a couple years ago I had that realization moment, it was rather groundbreaking for me ❤️ helped me understand others struggles better. Thank you so much 🙏

I think this can apply to anyone's pain, young or old. This may, very well, be the hardest thing they've experienced. So, we need to extend compassion to others' lived experiences.

We often tend to forget That we are part of the Earth, A whisper of the Cosmos, The breath of the Universe. That we are born out of water, And our hearts, forged by fire, Our eyes are, of course, are stars And our bodies, are jars of clay Moulded and shaped by Powerful Hands. Our minds are the depths of the oceans And our imagination, the wide, blue skies. Each heartbeat, supposedly, Is a song of love, but why We are uttering now the cries of war? Why we have forgotten the riddles That the Universe has taught us? Our souls and spirits are not divided but one; And that we are brothers and sisters, And our race is but one. I love your wisdom, and it's reflected in your videos. Blessings and love from the Republich of the Philippines.

One idea that I often contemplate and that you echo in every video I've seen so far is that we don't spend enough time just being quiet and listening and observing nature, just being peaceful in our own thoughts. We need it more than ever before in our country. We'd all be so much happier for it. We are very fortunate to live in the mountains in a beautiful setting so it's very easy for us to do, if we just stop and breathe. Everyone is so angry and it shocks and appalls me daily, how individuals can wish harm on others who simply have opposing opinions. They sure need some nature therapy! Another lovely interlude, thank you. ~Cynthia

Your words are so poetic. Poems inspire me. You feel so connected to an environment of yours, I feel you have inspired me to tell a story about an environment I myself lived in :) As a person, I have a longing to break the barrier between myself and the natural world. I’ve felt this since I was 9 years of age. I though I could do so by spending much more time in my surroundings and making more of an effort to know it, but that has failed. It has failed because wanting to be a part of earths nature and growth was derived by Apollyon a longing to be a part of it, not a specific love for it. But this is where the story begins. Ever since sixth grade, I have loved what’s beyond our planet. It has always been fascinating to me. I love learning about zodiac signs, constellations, Star cycles, and new discoveries. I didn’t then, but I realize now that the longing could only be quenched by a somewhat hidden, but always present, interest of mine. My older brother is a photographer. Ever since he was around fourteen, he got into astro-photography and astronomy. It may be genetic, or from our similar encounters and experiences that we share this hidden love for space. He has accumulated many mounts and cameras and technology to help him with his photographs over the years, and every time he found something amazing while I was young (and it wasn’t past 11), my mothers would allow him to bring me outside and look through his telescope to see the night sky, and we would look in silence. Then, when I had just turned 12 and he was 16, we started building an observatory. Our neighbor was good with wood and so he helped tremendously in th building process, and I am an artist, so I filled the walls with colorful murals. We would go inside Teh observatory in clear nights and look at Star clusters and streaks of the Milky Way. We would look at Cassiopeia, look at nebulas, look at galaxies, look at planets like mars, Juliet and it’s moon and rings, and the brightest, Venus. Of course, some of these could only be seen through his pictures with his technology. Thank you reading my story

Daydreaming...one of the most important and significant tools to maintaining and relishing the beautiful self which, of course, is in everyone.

I aspire to live a peaceful life as you have, since I love nature, art, and being alone. Living in a tight knit family is beautiful and has its advantages, but I really like to have my own space after I graduate from university.

I fell into a deep peace while listening to your video. The savage voices in my head, eased by the softness of your voice. Beautiful cinematography, very well spoken. You have a lifetime fan of your work.

[@carabencivenga8713]

I'm so glad I found your channel, your videos have helped me with coming out of a very dark place. They make me tear up sometimes from being so beautiful and peaceful. The mountain landscape is amazing, only in dreams (day dreams hehe) can I hope to live in a place like that. Long-term goals. :) Can't wait to see more videos and how it looks during the winter up there. ❤

Oh thank you so so much, that means a lot to hear. I am a naturally anxious person and the process of making these helps me feel peaceful, it is healing for me, I am so glad to know I can share that feeling. I know you will fulfill your dreams in your own time and way, sending you good wishes and hugs ❤

Your videos genuinely teach me so much. They not only inspire me, but remind me that I can take time to nurture myself, and stop focusing on everything around me while enjoying every delicious minute of it. Thank you so much for just being so healing and articulate, it means the world and I'm so glad I found your channel.

[@TheCottageFairy]

Aww! My heart! Thank you for sharing, this made me so happy to hear. Comments like yours remind me why I so enjoy making theses videos 🤍 I am glad we can nurture each other, best wishes

Imagination has its own reality and we can bring that reality into the material world with our will.

Hamadryads, tree nymphs whose life depended on that of their tree. What seems to me to be the highest and the most difficult achievement of art is not to make us laugh or cry nor to arouse our lust or rage but to do as nature does- that is to set us dreaming. Flaubert

My daughter was like that little child being so upset ... until I was told about temperaments and differences in reactions ... my little girl was melancholic and needed a lot of compassion and even tiny scratches were a huge deal! Waldorf (Steiner) education is amazing 'tool' for children, parents, teachers ... Thank you for your gorgeous, truthful, kind messages in your films. Thank you. God bless you.

How lovely to hear that, I used to go to the library in my old town to listen to the local storytellers guild share stories from their indigenous cultures. It was so inspiring, definitely made an impact 🤍

Yes, I’m early-ish! I really love your content, and your lifestyle is almost exactly what I want mine to be when I’m older. I’m a young person, so I’m still figuring out what I’m going to do in life, and you and your videos are so inspiring to me! They remind me a lot of visiting my grandparents house in the woods. Congratulations on being Creator on the Rise by the way!

[@TheCottageFairy]

Oh thank you so so much! I appreciate it, I am figuring things out as well and I’m so glad to connect with others on their person journeys ❤️ sending hugs
