Do Resolutions Make Sense? | Our Biggest Lessons Learned - Meet the Mazelins

[@kaycee2182]

”Do something not because you are trying to reach someone else’s level, but because you want it for you “ A WORD! 2023 here we come! 🍾🥂*group hug* I set resolutions but I'm not driven 😔I have a vision board in front of my bed from 2020 yup accomplished only a quarter of one.

Remember, sharing your life story on social media is a choice and not an obligation. If you need time to take care of your mental or physical health you need to prioritize that.

If I have to choose one of your episode for 2022 it would have to be the ultimatum that’s my favorite it was so emotional

[@erviatyler656]

Happy New Year to the Mazelin family. Alec, please don't feel along. We all have that funk and want that separate space when we are down. I'm glad Brian goes all out to make you feel special in different ways. This will also make both of you stronger, and your marriage blossoms to higher heights. 2023 I feel this year will be great for the Mazelin family in a lot of different ways. Everything you guys have shared with us has been helpful. I love and respect you guys so much ❤️. Brian, Alec, and BJ, the sky is the limit keep reaching for the stars 🌟.

[@mustangsally2606]

If I had to choose a favorite 2022 video, it would have to be the behind the scenes wedding one. Seeing some of the preparations leading up tothe big day, the day itself, and the entire weekend. Such a fun time!!! My 2023 goal is just to be more active by getting out of the house more!! Have a great week!! ❤❤❤❤

Sometimes the simple things in life are the most memorable moments.

[@mapulamaunatlala]

My memorable 2023 video was your wedding day those vows still stuck in my memory ,your dress code WOW it was really good very good

[@nicolebennett7093]

Alec you couldn't have said it better," you can't pour from an empty cup". So for me 2023 and beyond I'm taking care of me. You guys are an inspiration to me. Keep being your authentic self.

[@charlesdotson4766]

Hi, Alec and Bryan! This was a great discussion and thank you both for your willingness to be open and vunerable on camera about your life challenges. And yes, Bryan " Aries " is a fire sign ruled by the agressive planet Mars, so impatience and the feeling of not being in control are things you will have to consistently work on.😊 Just know that if you ask or pray for patience, that you "will" be tested by being presented with situations or circumstances that will "test" your patience. Many blessings and

[@jackiebenjamin8772]

It's so great to know that you were in the launch of the first Black Gay Magazine. That's history guys. The Magazine should be place in a type of frame where it can be read by your visitors but not easily get damage. Brian always remember whatever something don't go your way, it's the Lord telling you that he will not give you what you think you want but will eventually give you what you need. Twitch's death took me back to my postpartum of decades ago, when there was not a name for it and new mothers didn't understand what was happening to them. Alec you will eventually find your niche. Brian it's great when you can recognize your fault, come to terms with it and decide to work on it. All the best for 2023 guys, continue being true to yourselves ❤️❤️

[@gailfiddiman8564]

This is a great conversation. I can see myself in some of the things you're saying.!

[@susettefrancis2572]

Deep stuff guys. I truly enjoyed the conservation - made me stop and think about what I would like to achieve this year. One thing I would like to do is travel to my homeland. I am so scared of flying! Wishing you all the best, guys. Brian, I always look forward to you saying “subscribeeee.” 😀😀

[@chumnat]

One thing I would like to achieve this year is to finally be able to travel

[@maclindsay15]

@Susette. Don’t let that hold you back. Fly with someone. I’m not a fan of flying but I love to travel. I just book with family or friends and the flight goes by quickly. I’m going to Hawaii next month. First 6 trips I have planned for this year.

Every moment you guys mentioned were mine too as your viewer. I enjoyed this video.

[@Jack_Black536]

You brothas are just pure fun to watch. Your wedding was my highlight for 2022. The others were seeing the "Community" that you have gathered and the love that is so evident amongst them. Seeing the "Brown Bros" begin their journey as an offshoot of your channel. (I root for them) The sit down with Kerry and Pierré has to place among the best couples, grown ass man, conversation I've witnessed. Man, if I could have had examples like that as a kid would have changed a bunch of s**t I internalized. Lastly, seeing "Meet the Mazelins quickly approaching 10K BRAVO!!!!

This was such a great video, guys. It was humorous, deep, and exciting. I typically create resolutions throughout the year to avoid putting pressure on myself. I’m always adjusting as needed. My goals are to get back into creating content, building my finances, and toning my body.

[@elainemcdonald6903]

As a Jamaican, seeing you both living your true authentic selves is inspiring. I feel helpless as a mother watching my dear friend who is a gay Jamaican and a flight attendant is afraid to stand in his truth and live his best life.

[@MeetTheMazelins]

Thank you so much for that Elaine. We are truly sorry to hear about your friend but we understand wholeheartedly. As someone who only recently left I know how daunting it can feel even in the safest of spaces. Continue being the loving person that you are and showing up for him the way you do. That is the best gift you can give 💜

[@deleonmusic3029]

So one of my struggles is trying to have everything figured out. I’m only 20 and I have plenty of time to figure my life out but it’s like something in my mind won’t rest until I feel stable, secure, and established. I think one of my biggest worries is being in my 30s and struggling to make it through. I don’t know how to not worry if that makes sense.😭

[@ctexx3]

Happy New Year guys! Always a pleasure seeing you both! Please do some more cooking episodes and please recommend any shows you guys are watching now on KZbin etc! Much love and respect!

[@sheltonclark3926]

Happy New Year to you guys as well! The most memorial and significant event for me where you two are concerned is of course the wedding of the year (July 8, 2022). This will remain etched in my mind forever, as this could not happen for a better couple. This occasion alone gives hope to those who seek meaningful loving relationships. I wish the entire Mazelin family the very best for 2023 and hope you will continue to be shining examples of what a true family is. Much love to you guys!!!

The expression in both your faces when you look at each other is so heartwarming. Love will see you both through difficult times in the future, as long as you communicate well with each other and stay intuned to one another's emotions. 🏵🌼

[@Jordi7174]

Brian, please make Alec some fried green tomatoes. My friend is Jamaican and she'd never had them before. Well sir, when I made some for her she fell in love with them. She wouldn't get on the plane to go home before I fried her another batch. I'm curious to see what Alec thinks of them. And some hot sauce takes them over the top.💛✌️

Hey there guys, helpful information you two shared. Alec, thanks for being transparent about your experiences related to mental wellness. You are making a huge positive difference for so many people. I am curious if you two have ever decided to have a mental health counselor on your show?

[@Kedeuce]

Such resonance in this video. I totally love how transparent you both are. That, to me, takes a lot of courage, and I thank you guys for sharing.. For me in 2023, my goal is to stop settling for less. To challenge myself more and go for the gold, as I’m looking to stop procrastinating, being lazy and making excuses.And also start really believing people when they show me who they really are.

[@OurBoyStory]

Happy new year! Meeting you last year was definitely in our top highlights. We’re so grateful for the community you guys helped to build online and happy we get to share a tiny corner of the internet with you and the other couples you mentioned! ❤❤❤❤

Amazing video guys. Keep shooting for the stars. The best is out there for ALL of us. Continue to take care of your mental health, talk to a therapist, i do & it's amazing. Pray & keep God first! Everything will fall into place! 🙏🏽✨

[@joseona1430]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Brian habla muy bien español

[@Roy-vt6fj]

I want to share a life lesson that I have learned… In life sometimes we feel that we’re being demoted… but in fact God is strategically positioning us to gain more experiences for a Greater more Fulfilling and Enriching blessings!! and we find in the end that it’s more Rewarding & Beneficial in every way!!! ❤❤❤ The key is to follow the voice and direction of God. Sometimes during the moment of decision making you will not always understand the direction you are taking. But, as you maneuver through the process things will become clearer and you will understand why you took the particular path that you choose and how one thing lead to another… it like a domino effect ❤❤❤❤❤

I wanted to comment and let you know that I don’t comment on every video anymore because I am so busy! But I am watching all your videos, even if it’s late at night when I’m eating my granola, or if it’s when I’m in the gym. I am inspired by you guys… as a family oriented black gay man it is so nice to see other young gay men who are of a similar mindset. You guys are a true inspiration.

I know this is only one aspect of what you guys do in terms of jobs, flight attendant, baking, and other businesses, but this is an important part that you give to others. You both changed your lives for love so remember love wins and it will take time to get all the things that are coming your way. i feel that the universe is aligning for you guys and that all things are possible because of what you are doing with your channel and the messages that you send out to others. The best of luck in 2023. As for me i am creatively having an explosion and pushing further toward writing and developing plays for the theater. Have a wonderful New Year !

Happy New Year Mazelins. - I definitely appreciate this video and the transparency you both shared. I think we as humans are always so concerned with the view that people have of us instead of being concerned about how we view ourselves and giving ourselves grace to be human. This content and the words of affirmation are surely what was needed for you both but also for others that watch who havent taken a moment to really deep dive into their own self care.
