Hello Maria, I just want to cross the screen and tell you that you have a beautiful baby girl, that looks the same as you in the first photo, you are married to an awesome person and you are the most happy woman, I can only imagine how was your life when you filmed this video, but you are now in a better place. I just wish you happiness and health, for you and for all your familiy.

Masha, you shouldn't be so negative. You were a beautiful child. Thank you for doing this channel. Your soothing voice is helping me treat my stress and anxiety and get me to sleep.

What a coincidence! My name is Svetlana and the friend who started my ASMR was my friend Maria. I just loved watching her draw pictures :)

[@JellieBee]

Oh my gosh Mila looks IDENTICAL TO YOU AS A BABY!!! Also thank you KZbin for recommending me vintage Gentlewhispering, been here since 2011 and I'm very grateful every day

That first picture the resemblance with her Mom is shocking.

and these photos look like art! seriously they look so vintage and they literally look like a work of a professional photographer who's theme is "lost time" or something!

[@floresian7897]

lol

[@nayy121]

Maria stop saying you weren't pretty! You were SUCH a cute little kid!!

[@WhisperAudiosASMR]

This was the first ever GentleWhispering video I ever watched. At first I thought, why I am I so hooked watching this lady talk about her life? And then I realised. It was the feeling I used to get as a kid, that tingling feeling in your head and your eyes start to get heavy. And the official term for it was ASMR. I just want to thank Maria for this, as if it wasnt for her, I would have never have known :) xx

[@t7010]

I just watched your draw my life and can't imagine what you were going thru at the time of filming this video. You've come so far since then Maria ❤️

[@WhisperAudiosASMR]

This was my first ever ASMR/Maria video :)

[@wolfiethedog76]

This is such a great video! I love when people share themselves like this. It makes me feel like her friend...

It is one of her most heartfelt ones!

I don't know why you think you aren't beautiful. You were a beauty when you were a child, and you still are! By the way, those red boots are FAB!

[@SBPhoenixLOTA]

I miss your videos like this Maria :(. There's something really special about videos like this when someone shares not just their creativity but a part of themselves and their past. Out of curiousity I searched for a couple of other videos I remember from over the years. The draw my life one and the binaural microphone test (the second part). I understand why you took them down - but still a bit gutted :S. They were very relaxing and there was something special about them, they just seemed to be an honest reflection of you - which, for me at least, was more relaxing than all the RP's combined. Thanks for the tingles Maria :)

[@GentleWhisperingASMR]

Sb Phoenix hey hun :) Yes I know what you mean. I prefer to watch simple easy videos myself :) But I love to do all kinds of different stuff. As far as those 2 vids, they are both still up, probably hard to find :)

[@Doodahdoodles]

Gentle Whispering ASMR please could you do more simple/back to basics asmr where the camera is down facing the objects rather than facing you ? This is really relaxing to a lot of people when the camera focuses on the item close up and tapping etc. Please please

[@heidiklockenbrink3885]

Omg just now watching this in 2019 and in that first picture that is literally MILA 😭😭

[@FluorescentElf]

Мария, для меня приятное открытие, что мы с тобой(вами) родились и выросли в одном городе)). Дом с синими балконами очень яркое воспоминание из детства, жила в такой пятиэтажке(может были соседями)). И вообще может это 90е, а может особый липецкий колорит- у меня детское фото абсолютно в таком же стиле и фото выпуска и пляж, мир тесен))

[@Albert-Azatovich]

Это не колорит 90-х, это мыльницы полароид

I keep coming back to this photo as I think it's lovely. You have a very relaxing voice, not matter what you are talking about.

[@JamesMichaelDoyle]

and now we know why she is so damn gorgeous. genetics.

[@JamesMichaelDoyle]

also not sure why you were embarrassed about the uniform picture. you did indeed look great in it, not surprising though; you could wear a potato sack and still manage to look good i think. also amusing that you thought your hair in the prom picture "looked bad". why are you so overly critical of yourself?

husband doesn't want you to show his face clearly, because he doesn't want an angry mob of guys hating him for snatching you up. ;)
