I feel like I’m one of the rare few that summer makes me depressed . I thrive in the colder gloomy seasons.

[@ExLibris-Alys]

Me too 👍🏻

[@christophershank8393]

I find that I'm a solar powered battery. I charge during the summer but I'm used in the gloomy seasons.

[@mermaidmoongoddess]

I love the cold so much I go through seasonal depression in the spring and summer 😂😂. Maybe it’s because I was born during a blizzard

Like some of my favorite authors have said, you never really learn how to write books, you just learn how to write the specific one you're writing and once its done u have to start again and learn a new book

[@fionawilliams5477]

You're an inspiration

[@syedrafayshah7698]

Can I ask what type of essay?

[@fionawilliams5477]

​@@syedrafayshah7698i have an exam week in school and it's an essay on Iago's betrayals in Othello (Shakespearean tragedy if you aren't familiar) so nothing too special but I crave praise from my teacher so I'm putting my soul into it

[@mushroomsandtea]

literally also planning an essay while watching this!!! best of luck with yours :)

[@fionawilliams5477]

​@@mushroomsandtea Omg hope it went well! Mine was good but I had a massive headache

[@fionawilliams5477]

​@@syedrafayshah7698nothing crazy, just analysing Iago's betrayals in Othello for school

I like your rosary on the wall. Here in Bosnia, it's tradition in Catholic households to keep rosaries on the wall like you.

I love this concept of videos; they inspire me and make me love life itself. You are truly my queen, Dakota, and if I had the time (more like the energy to make some), I would star in a cult praising your name.

[@the-comments-poet]

A story of you It’s how you put down the spoon Gently, in soft motion, with precise intent Imagine the flight of the hummingbird Ethereal and purposeful It’s the cat’s graceful jump on your lap Purring warmly It’s the quiet smile given to a stranger Just walking by This morning I listen to the silences And I am reminded of you It’s the complicit glance friends share Hearing all that is unsaid The delicate and privileged touch Of a snowflake landing on your face This morning I listen to the silences And I hear you In the bewitching final note Floating from the sad melody On the piano On this ordinary day This morning I heard the silences Telling me a story gentle and true Of might and strength unloud A story of you It’s how you put down the spoon

[@Meredithlrio]

Love it❤

[@jajajaner]

that's really pretty

[@melyibarra809]

Two videos on the same week??????? We’ve been blessed

[@mi-i-zori]

I literally discovered your channel yesterday afternoon, and to say I’m obsessed is a euphemism. I’ve been binge watching your videos ever since. I love your vibes so much, I swear I’m gonna end up creating a character for my stories inspired by you at some point Lots of love and cosy autumn vibes your way 💚

[@sezonaupaklu]

these are my absolute favourite type of videos from you

[@AllistairHill]

Perfect song choices. Impecable

[@VeraLeeBird]

Your videos are always so lovely. Grounding, inspiring, comforting, and the cutest ever, also. Thank you. 💛🍂

Have not watched you for a little while. Take care of your health - put yourself first - relax in the spaces between the paragraphs. And breath fresh air not lock yourself away precious.

[@QuestionsIAskMyself]

Messin plutot que français- noir boy george

[@user-pz4xe3sb6t]

Sort of messed up she doesn't cite or even mention the song's use in the description. I can confirm the earlier comment, @angel87620 , it's "Messin Plutot Que Français" by Noir Boy George.

[@theodoesthings]

I AM VERY NORMAL ABOUT FRUIT

[@xen2001]

your videos inspire me to live out life as an author but i am always saddened when i remember i grew up and live in germany and my english will never be a match for people who grew up with that language. i have no interest in writing in german, and i dont think there is support here if you are starting out as an english writer over here. maybe i will get my chance sometime later in life if i ever get the chance to move out of this country. love your videos as always, you're a huge inspiration

[@giovannaputhumana8460]

You could try writing for literary magazines.

[@Jo-sx8yi]

Hi, I'm from Germany too so I feel qualified to give you a heads up, it is possible to learn English to the degree that you can match or even surpass native speakers. Think, most people can converse in their native language but would not feel capable of applying the language in a way that would be fit for an interesting literary piece - if you are good at English grammar- and vocabulary wise and have some aptitude for dramatic writing, you are good to go. It should also be possible to send your pieces to international publishers via the internet. Granted, this won't be as helpful/pay off as quickly as local publishers, but I still suggest you try it - you can't really lose with it.

[@alijanxd6242]

anybody know the name of the song in the start of the video?

[@laurarm24]

I think it's Messin Plutot que Français by Noir Boy Georges
