You are a man to be admired. You live by your own rules and you are living your best life, all while being a positive inspiration to others. You respect nature, you hurt no one and you spread good feelings wherever you go You rock Tim!!!!

My brother is like you. Not married. No girlfriends. No mortgage. Just lives his life his way. That makes alot of sence because otherwise we are following like robots!

[@tunde_b5662]

You're exactly right! People should ask themselves : " Do you remember who you were before society told you who you should be"

[@TimothyWard]

Exactly! That is a great question. I think I'm going to use that in a video!

Great talk. I do off the wall stuff just because. I sold my truck and now I ride a motorcycle full time. When I made that decision, I had no experience riding, a motorcycle endorsement (from a class I took) and a brand new motorcycle. It was the best decision I made in 2020 so far. I love the look on people's faces when they look at you like you're not human because you can do whatever you want.

[@TimothyWard]

Exactly! I love when I blow peoples minds because they cant understand why I'm doing what I'm doing lol

I agree with Tim been thinking this way most of my life. I may have to find a better way to live for me away from society. Most people just dont care or understand that I dont want to be you, I am me.

[@JoshuaMedina181]

I was at the YMCA of the Rockies earlier this year! Glad to see they're back in operation, I was in the Elevate Program back in January. Best few months of my life, got to meet some amazing people there, I truly miss it there. The mountains and community were very special to me, I haven't experienced anything so wholesome and beautiful. Unfortunately, every Seasonal job worker and other full-time staff have been laid off due to when the pandemic peaked back in March. I remember it like it was yesterday, March 17th we ALL got the news that the YMCA was shutting down indefinitely, and March 20 and throughout the weekend we were all asked to leave home. A lot of heavy emotions were going on those last few days, in fact we completely stopped operating the YMCA and we just spent the last few days having campfires, partying and hanging out with the friends and staff. I'll never forget this experience, truly a once in a lifetime type of thing. Who knows maybe I would've stuck around longer at the Y if the pandemic didn't happen. Now, I'm leaving in a month to join AmeriCorps NCCC mission, to help communities across America, I'm super excited! Thank you for your hard work and videos Timothy!

[@leogiacomo8284]

All kinds of weird subliminal stuff in society. For example, if I'm watching your video alone in a car around people, they will typically think something is up in a negative connotation versus if I was in the car with a person. Weird little things like that is what gets me to continue to go against that mentality.

[@kareemmohammed5270]

real talk bro, resonate. were not tought to be self centred in the real ways that matters to us but instead superficial ways.

[@FreedomToRoamBySusanHare]

I retired at 65 and became a fulltime vandweller. The year before that I converted my vehicle, downsized, gathered resources, and practiced. Although friends and family were shocked, I was supported and continue to be, every step of the way. Since then I've changed, pushed away expectations I thought people had of me - gift-giving included. Freedom!!!

[@salesforcegiulia]

This video made me think a lot. It’s true, we think we are free but our lives are full of shoulds and musts. I’m trying to get out of the cage that I’ve made for my self starting with no Christmas presents this year 😌 Thanks Tim, great video!

[@mamutcat]

[@marleyite]

Showing off our unhappiness....Lol😊😊 that is so true.

[@lovetotravel780]

I can really relate to and appreciate this message. I do not break the law or jeopardize someone's health but I do what is authentic to my lifestyle and who I am. I have been wearing the same 2 looks every day for the past few years and I do not buy seasonal or holiday decor just to name a few. I do not give my time, money, space, or any other important resources to things or people that I do not want in my life. This reminds me of your video Let Normal People Worry About Normal People Stuff. I love the message in that video. It is classic and is so important to understand and apply to my life.

[@TimothyWard]

I'm thinking about following your example and wearing the same look everyday or every other day. It will help to simplify the wardrobe lol.

[@LLNYC]

I love this message SO much. The more time passes the less I can tolerate society as it is. Your words need to be spread far and wide. Thanks Tim!

[@Johnwilliams-l6p]

I hate the over the top exuberance of people for any holiday, it drives me crazy. So when people ask me what I’m doing for the holidays my answer is always “HIDING”

We can be so afraid to express ourselves in this day and age but man is it freeing to just do what you feel. Thank your for this confirmation!!!!!
