Enlightenment...

[@Dordi-rz7jc]

I am hoping that things will turn around - as you said people are quite happy with the swill that they have been fed. They have been brainwashed and if they only could open their eyes then this world will be saved. It's about having eyes to see, ears to hear, and a heart to feel. Thank you for your wise words - I hope more will watch your videos

Thank you for the kind words. As I've said in my videos, I'm not looking for a wide audience. By default, these kinds of videos cannot attract a wide audience, because I'm talking about things that people in general simply aren't interested in hearing.

Peoole are so strange this days, I am 50 now and 30 years ago it was different. I like your videos, tanks, especially your minimalistic view on cloding. You can only fix yourself and dont have a bad consius about the world.

[@RaoulPop]

Yeah, if you've just tuned into my channel after a while and saw one of my new videos, it's going to be a strange experience, sorry about that. Who knows when I'll get to post more normal videos again... In the meantime, I still publish photos of pretty flowers: www.flickr.com/photos/raoulpop/. They'll take your mind off the things I talk about these days.

No I actually find you refreshing I refere to people in general nowdays. People are contradictable stange, for example like obsesed with doing the right thing for the planet, while instant narcesistic posting on facebook. It is a disconecting with reality. But I do appriciate you minimalistic view on life, and watch those videos multible times.

I liked your old videos, and also the new ones. Good to hear a voice of reflection from a 'conscious' person. One sees many people with slightly narcissistic tendencies all around us at times, all about ego, in the media and elsewhere, very little humility, so it is refreshing to listen to someone who observes. Enlightenment is being truly honest with oneself, appreciating nature in the smallest of ways, connection with those we care about, even appreciating ourselves and what brings us joy. It is constant observation, reflection and being present. I find it difficult not to be melancholic when I see how the world has become and how everything changes over time, and time goes by fast. The interesting thing about getting older is that other people who are younger probably see me as old, but we are still the same inside as when we were 20 or 30 years younger, only with more wisdom hopefully. Now I look at people older than I am, and know that is probably how they feel too. We have to be able to have the perspective to find the humour and be philosophical where we can. I try to be hopeful....and not give in to the fear that seems to engulf the world right now. I don't think we can 'seek' enlightenment, we just need to be conscious. Thank you for making the effort to share your thoughts....I have watched some of your recent videos more than once. I am sure I am not the only one.
