"I am absolutely convinced that meaninglessness does not come from being weary of pain; meaninglessness comes from being weary of pleasure. And that is why we find ourselves emptied of meaning with our pantries still full." A quote from a man that gave a lot of wisedom he didn't follow.

I don't understand the gta6 references

[@snailedlt]

@@slax4884 People have been talking about GTA 6 since GTA 5 came out in 2013. It's been 11 years now, and when they finally announced it a while back they announced it like a year in advanced. So it's become a meme to mention all the things that came before the next GTA game

Took me a while to actually appreciate how much was given to me at birth. Took over 25 years. I will never take a single day for granted anymore. It's sad to see some people who have gotten soooo much just bickering over little things and throwing tantrums over spilled milk so to say. You have mad skills! Lots of love from Finland! :)

[@daikishinomiya]

Love this video mate. I like to think of each day as the sum of all the small moments that happen. What shapes our perception of how “well” the day went is which of those moments we allow ourselves to notice and internalize. That’s why we sometimes feel unhappy, even when our circumstances seem amazing - The negative small moments are often more “in-your-face” and so it’s easier to let them overshadow the positive ones. But all that’s really needed is to allow yourself to notice more of the positive small moments!

[@JmarcStudios]

You’re not lucky, you worked hard for it, and that's the fruit of your hard work. Enjoy life and continue inspiring people like us! forever and always a fan of you!

[@hanitouati]

how can someone work hard to be born somewhere they want ?

[@fullyplantd]

Here's a thought ... Happiness doesn't exist, it's a marketing ploy. We are sold happiness as this permanent state that you can achieve and then you will never feel bad again. There is so much pressure to be happy, we see it in TV commercials, posters, social media, movies and even get pressure from our parents who say to us "we just want you to be happy". Which makes us go out and look for this thing that is called "happiness". But it doesn't exist and it never has, life is constant ups and downs and you can never feel good all of the time, what you really want to seek is 'joy'. Joy is a more honest emotion in the sense where we know that the emotion will end at some point and we're ok with that. So in life, don't seek happiness, seek what brings you joy in your life and accept that it's ok to feel bad sometimes.

[@AlFirous]

Well said, enjoy and embrace the feeling, whatever it is.

[@whengrapespop5728]

That’s an interesting thought. However, happiness does exist - it’s just often misunderstood; happiness does/should not extinguish sorrow; likewise, sorrow does not (have to) extinguish happiness. Sorrow is good, as long as it ultimately edifies you instead of tearing you down to destruction.

This makes me reconsider why I am in Dubai when I'm from Norway my self and a big nature guy. One part of me want's to live in a campervan and the other want's to grind in UAE.

[@Anton_Mantynen]

As a guy born and raised in Sweden i feel the same. "Im cant live and complain about my life..." Some times i wish i was that friendly person who died in cancer insteed of them... I have struggled for many years with my mental health. And i climb this huge mountain every day, i dont know who many times i can climb it. Life is short and not easy, i enjoy it some days, other i dont. Life is life, huh? Always loved your videos! Never stop! Dream big, aim high!

[@jortm4075]

beautiful words!

[@canadianboy9776]

Life is a journey, not a cycle. Moving forward gives the motion of life. Keep climbing that hill, just note the small changes each day within the conversation we have with ourselves. Soon enough, looking back will show you moving forward. I believe, but I understand not having always believed.

[@canadianboy9776]

I believe that we will never truly, have it all, we just have less pain and more to loose. There will always be a step to improve or a selfless act to compromise. So stop looking for the perfection, life is the energy of the journey. The flow of time in a grace full manner, one purpose to simply be. The best teacher I have learned to follow, someone that will always be there is mother earth, she will always welcome with open arms for you to join her rhythm. She just moves so much slower, its in this the space that life blosoms.

[@rick.walder]

dude, I really love your videos lately. insane lifestyle, insane mindset, pure bless. Definitely something I needed to hear and see, thanks! Trying to ground myself again like this and reach for peace. Thanks dude fr.

[@kungfudunk94]

All your video creations are masterpiece. Just like how He created all this beauty nature in the world, yet we often take it for granted. This video reminds me to take time slow down and "reflect" over His creations including myself. Life is more than just study, work, and married. Thank you for coming back to YT sometimes!

[@Alberto_Seghezzi]

deep inside ourself we have all the answers, that sometimes are just too hard to be heard with all the noise that surround us. overthinking about being happy enough, or not enough, it's something I've also been struggling, like if I should be happy, I should just feel ok 'cause I'm fine, I'm safe, I'm doing what I love for living; but it's not what we SHOULD do or feel about life but HOW we really feel about that the key. no-one of us have the answers to these questions, many has the idea of what we should do or how we should react to this, but deep inside, it's just us, with ourself, feeling happy, guilty, lucky, sad about life. thanks for sharing your thoughts and remembering me I'm not the only one thinking about these. it won't answer but it'll help me to deal with everything.

[@redhxt_]

From banger videos to this soulful video. Welcome back, sir! He is HEM! more of this!

Dude, that was absolutely beautiful. The frames, the speech, the whole. We are almost all in this situation. We should be happier and focus on what we have. Cheer

[@Partyboy420]

Even when life seems perfect, it's natural to feel moments of doubt or unworthiness. Emotions often transcend logic, reminding us that fulfillment isn't just about what we have but how we understand ourselves. Embrace these feelings-they're part of the human experience.

In my opinion, it's all relative. People that live by clear blue water will become desensitized to something people pay thousands of dollars and travel thousands of miles to see. It's learning to remind yourself to be where your feel are. Think you did that in this video. Well done.

A few weeks ago I also had a similar thought about how I lucky I am to grow up like this and have everything and wondered what my purpose even was then so then I thought my purpose is to give and do good to others that dont have much

[@pavelivosedlacek]

Wow, You managed to put into words, how I've been feeling for years. The more I travel and see the world, the more I feel the same as you, how could I be so lucky?

Really beautiful video Andreas! ❤️ You're a huge inspiration.

[@felipevalenciaclavijo]

Woow man, thats amazing! your an amazing story teller and videographer. Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us.

[@5places2be]

I remember watching one of your videos. And for some reason I can't get it out of my head. You looked exhausted and said "...and again a day without sleep" because you worked the whole night on a video project. Never I heard from someone working that much and that passionate for his projects. Sometimes I thought Iam lazy, because I am not working trough the night for a project. And then you dare to call yourself "lucky". After grinding trough days, weeks, months and years practicing and learning cinematography and teaching it for free on your KZbin Chanel and inspiring others. You *deserved* it. No matter what the society wants you to think. This wasn't luck, you were driven. Over 90% of the people who live in Norway didn't manage to do what you did. You quit a good working job to take a risk to be a freelancer, because you were driven. Other people would never have thought about it. I accept the fact, that you say you are lucky because you were born in a beautiful country. But please don`t tell people you are "just lucky". You worked your ass off living the life you have now. - inspired creator from germany

[@jizn_kak_est]

[@smartideas-pedro1690]

I gave up on being happy a while ago. I just focus on being useful to those around me. Thinking you should be happy will only lead you to unhappiness because you'll always feel like you lack something. Btw, you're being useful to your audience by inspiring us to better filmmakers/creators.

Thank you for fleshing out your heart in words with beautiful images and music! If you really boil your reflections down, is the logical conclusion as you say, to think it's all too much, the undeserved jackpot of a privileged life you've got. Or would it be logical if it's logical that there's this God who loves the whole world who chose to show you a small part of His great love this exact way, to bring you to Him so you can get to know Him. He's Father Son and Holy Spirit. And as son he can relate to all human weaknesses.

"What else does this craving, and this helplessness, proclaim but that there was once in man a true happiness, of which all that now remains is the empty print and trace? This he tries in vain to fill with everything around him, seeking in things that are not there the help he cannot find in those that are, though none can help, since this infinite abyss can be filled only with an infinite and immutable object; in other words by God himself." - Blaise Pascal-

I am currently in this state. For a while it felt like I didn’t have anything. All of a sudden It felt like I did, feels like I do have everything, and that/this scares me. The feeling that I shouldn’t have what I have or I wouldn’t be here long enough to enjoy it. So now I feel like I’m self sabotaging to take that feeling away.

[@bastians408]

Even if you were fortunate to be born in a safe and wealthy country, your story is unique, and it matters to you. Your experiences and challenges are valid, regardless of how "lucky" you might seem or how others say "it could be worse." Your world, seen through your eyes, makes your problems just as important as anyone else's. Don't feel guilty!

[@AndrewPaul1]

honestly the GOAT

[@darielfstrom2298]

We gotta remember: "Happiness is relative" If the worst thing thats happened in our life is that our house got bombed or it is that you got heartbroken, it is still the worst thing that have ever happened to you. I can't tell you that heartbroken and a destroyed home is equal, but the feeling could potentially be equal. We are all only humans in the end... Great video btw ;)

if interesting how some people(many people that I know actually) could have that same life of yours and choose not to have it. And at the same time, some people that live in a "not beautiful place" as Norway" have the same exact feeling of luck that you have. What I mean is that you see the world not as it is, but as you are. I'd say you're lucky to not take these things for granted, as anyone living anywhere in the world who have the same way of thinking about life.
