[@martinanilsson9268]

I just.. I love your content.. Its making me so relaxed.. I wish content creators could receive a lot more respect like they genuinely make someone's life better. I feel a lot better watching Morgan's videos..

[@MorganLong]

Thank you so very much, Martina-- I feel a lot better reading your comment

[@readwithtalia]

Same for me! Her reading vlogs are so relaxing and they bring me so much joy. KZbin is my place to go when I need some peace, especially Morgan’s content!

[@ChikuForYou]

You have such a warm and welcoming energy. You exude kindness in the way you talk and even film your videos! I can't wait to discover your content even more

[@rosieslade8227]

Good morning Morgan...! I’m just reading the comments... your defiantly spreading the love 💗! To us all ...! And we’re sending ours back to you ....! And we appreciate you so much ! Thank you Oh wondrous you ! 🥰🥰👩‍🦰

[@michellemontes6900]

I wait all week to see your video, I love it! You are an incredible person. Abrazos para todos

[@MorganLong]

Muchísimas gracias, Michelle

[@neathenerd]

I just came on KZbin to watch your older vlogs and there’s a new video! I am from India so I don’t know much about the history of America but what happened was really sad to see. India isn’t free of discrimination either but I really hope for a better future. So happy to see efforts being taken by people to just be better and do better. It is so very inspiring and I want to do better too.

[@MorganLong]

Hello, sweet Nea! Thank you so much for this comment, it's made me feel amazing

[@lyriclovercrafts]

I really love this video, Morgan. I know it was filmed 2 years ago, but I just wanted to say that I adore how genuine you are and what a truly kind and good and creative and lovely person you are. I love your channel.💛 Amber

[@TamarOneLove]

It is comforting to see that you are making an effort to understand what we are faced with. I was brought up in a family that never taught racism but the world showed me what racism is. I was taught to treat others how you want to be treated and to not feed into the ignorance of other people. I'm glad the realization of the injustices that has continued without punishment for years, is finally reaching those who honestly did not see it before. Thank you for making this video.

[@MorganLong]

Your words are always such a comfort to me, Tamar. You're a light in this world and you've brought so much positivity to this channel 💛 You're a reason I'm inspired to be and do better. I really cannot thank you enough, friend.

[@TamarOneLove]

@@MorganLong Thank you so very much, Morgan. Light and positivity pours out of you and onto our screens. I feel appreciated. You are welcome, friend.

[@eloise4230]

Omg music at the beginning! Clair de Lune is one of my favourite piano pieces ! I want to read books about racism too and support more black authors!

[@MorganLong]

I think it's my all time favorite song!

[@varshakaverappa668]

Every video you have on your channel is so heartwarming and uplifting. You have so much positivity in you , thanks for sharing that

[@thelunafaerie]

Your videos are a hug 🤗 Thank you truly. Just like an elder tree, your videos just grow more wise 🌲 You aren’t looking for praise, but I hope you always remember that your heart is in the right place 🖤 You bring so much magic through a screen, this is a real gift. Your care about conscious community and having real conversations trickles out like a sunlit river. Thank you for the humour and beauty weaved through your art 💖🥰 much love to you and your little fam!

[@pueppi199044]

Hey Morgan, since I found your channel I’m binge watching all your videos! It’s so crazy, you have now 1300 more subscribers and it’s only a few days ago! And You deserve everyone of them and more! Your videos are so calm, peaceful, inspirational, cozy and well made. I love the way you talk about your anxieties, it makes me feel less alone in times like these. Much love from Germany

[@adaobi4451]

crying thank you so much for your thoughtfulness. I love your videos so much they are incredibly comforting.Ive been obsessed with them all throughout quarantine. Im so grateful fo your heart.

[@MorganLong]

Thank you so so much, Adaobi. I'm so grateful for YOU. BIG hugs 🤗

[@varshakaverappa5871]

Your videos have been my break from work and escape from whatever is happening around the world for a few months now. Love your content!

[@sjthorn]

Being mixed, recent events have hit a bit closer to home for me than most of the people around me, but I have and will continue to love and adore your channel. It brings great optimism to my life.

[@MorganLong]

I'm so so sooo glad you love my channel and feel welcome here. You can always consider me a friend ❤️

[@nicolesreadingnook9586]

Your videos are so comforting. I also need to do more work and learning - thank you for being so honest and humble about it 💛

[@MorganLong]

Thank you so much, Nicole-- I think that something is better than nothing and acknowledging that more work needs to be done is huge 💛

[@satopin7770]

Hello from Japan! Just wanted to say that you are one of the most down to earth creators out here. I love your calming and beautiful videos that you make. I've actually been reading "with you" (while having your 1 hour long reading video on in the background) every single night! It helps me focus on my reading and I feel like I have a friend reading along with me! I look forward to your video every week! Thank you for addressing anti-racism and educating ourselves through reading because that's what I've been focusing on these days too! You're inspiring and I hope to make a book related video soon too! Love, Sato

[@MorganLong]

Hi, Sato! Thank you so so so very much for this kind comment. I'm so glad you feel like you have a friend in me. I'm going to do another reading vlog this week, but I think my next video after that will be a new "Read with me." I'm thinking of doing it outside 🌼 It's so important to educate ourselves on how to be anti-racist. Only once we truly understand the issue and how we've contributed to it can we make a difference and consciously choose to live in a way that supports black lives. Your English is amazing, are the books you're reading in English? If so, let me know if you have any books you recommend on the subject! Lots of love, Morgan

[@satopin7770]

Thank you for your kind reply! It made my whole day! I cannot wait for your next "Read with Me" video! I grew up learning in international schools my whole life so I've studied in English my whole life! My favorite book that I always recommend to others is "A Thousand Splendid Suns" by Khaled Hosseini. It's quite intense but the first time I learned more about the culture of Kabul. It moved me and I couldn't stop thinking about it for months!

[@MorganLong]

Satopin I own “A Thousand Splendid Suns” but I’ve never read it. Now I must!!

[@cefiro1635]

Morgan, I can’t find the right words to tell you what your channel is becoming to mean to me... such a safe place in these times is undoubtedly a huge gift, so thank you ever so much for letting us gazing at your beautiful and inspiring day to day. I discovered you a month ago or so, and I have enjoyed each one of your relaxing and heart-warming videos, so I can’t help becoming a new subscriber. Un abrazo enorme desde España. 💙😄😄

[@MorganLong]

Muchísimas gracias 💙 Tus palabras significan mucho para mí. Estoy muy contento de que mis videos sean un consuelo para ti. Además, ¡amo España! Abrazos 🤗

[@nikinicole253]

I love your talk at the beginning, race is never an easy topic to discuss, but I love that your are taking the time to educate your self. Your absolute right change does start within. I just love 💕 your channel so much, and your heart felt talks, it is so encouraging.😁 this has been a ruff year. But watching your videos always fills my heart with joy. I appreciate you

[@MorganLong]

Thank you so much for your positivity, Nicole 💕 I'm really really glad my videos are a comfort to you and that you're a part of this community!

[@staceylbnutrition1055]

You inspire me to be a better person, sending love from England x

[@AvaMcLoeriitho0o0]

Hi Morgan, your videos are so beautiful and soothing as always, so thanks for that. I have come to realize that there is definitively Sofia Coppola vibe to them, which is great because she is 100% one of my favorite directors ever ^^

[@landonthings]

I admire you so much Morgan. Always sharing all of your love with everyone, inspiring people to come together and be their best.

[@MorganLong]

I love you so much, Lan! Thank you for inspiring me to be a better person.

How amazing it is to see you educating yourself and taking a stand.

the little hilarious moments like your hair getting stuck in Landon’s beard, so relatable! :P

[@mijuamina]

Discovering your channel is a new treat for me. I love watching your videos because it relaxes me. New subscriber here!

[@jademelodyreads]

Your videos always provide me this sense of calm, and especially now with the different storms happening in the world, it's nice to see and feel calm sometimes

[@MorganLong]

I’m so very glad you’ve found calm here ❤️

[@countrystar44]

I love your videos!! They’re so genuine and relaxing :)

[@MorganLong]

Thank you so much, Marissa!!

[@WhereintheworldisLeahJane]

I just finished So You Want to Talk About Race last week. It's a very useful introduction , but is also great for those who may already know about these things but are struggling to explain them or talk about them with family. It has been especially useful for talking with family/friends. Glad you've found the resource.

[@MorganLong]

It's been immensely helpful! It's always easier to talk about things when we feel like we know what we're talking about, especially with speaking with family and friends who have a particularly strong emotional hold on you and who may disagree with what you're saying. And it doesn't stop here!

[@readwithtalia]

I love that your mug says: See the Good. I think that is so important today to look for the good people in the world who are the helpers and stand up for what’s right. I think it’s so important to read more diversely and is something I have been wanting to do so I can share with others books by authors that have unique voices.

[@SoniaSatraMoticise]

I couldn’t agree more, Talia 💛 Thank you so much for your positivity!

I just recently subscribed and I have to say how much I see myself in these vlogs. I'm also a fellow Virginian. Actually, not far from Blacksburg... I'm from the Lexington area! Any who, thank you for being a bright light and such a comfort. You feel like a true friend and I appreciate that during these uncertain times. I'm grateful for you! :)

Wow, we are so similar! I actually grew up in Richmond but visited Lexington frequently as I have family near there and my dad is a VMI alumni. Thank you for your sweet words, Rachel 🤗 You've made my night. Cheers, friend!

VMI is such a gorgeous campus. I’m very lucky to work downtown so I’m right in the middle of the historical beauty. Take care and have a fantastic week! 💕

I love how calm your videos make me feel ^_^ you've actually inspired me to create content, alongside some uni friends who make videos, so thank you! I hope I can learn to create an atmosphere in my videos as well as you do

[@MorganLong]

Ah, what a lovely comment! No one has ever commented on the atmosphere of my videos and so I've never noticed there was one, but now it's clear. Thank you for giving this to me :) And YES, please do continue to create content!

[@shortstuffchats]

@@MorganLong You are very welcome 🙂 atmosphere is something I look for in creative content like videos and movies 😅 when I choose to watch something it's usually based on how I'm feeling and how I want to feel. Your videos are perfect for watching in the evening or when I've been studying and need to wind down 😊 no sure how to create that though lol my content is going to be a lot of trial and error and experimentation 😅

[@aizyyyy._]

God your videos are sooooo calming. And black lives really do matter. I'm a Filipino and we're kinda known for having brown skins. Also my boyfriend is darker than the others but I loved him cause he was true to himself. Now idk if that connects to the issue in the US but what im saying is we should love people weather they have a different skin color, religion, gender or ability. We should love each other equally. PS: I'm just ramble sorry if thks doesn't make sense 😅😅

[@MorganLong]

Your words are so beautiful

[@alya5829]

I finally binge watched your latest videos, I wasn't able to watch them because I had exams. But I am so glad that I finally go to watch them all, and I must say I did miss the three or so weeks of content 😂💕 thank you for your beautiful videos! Edit: I would really appreciate it if you made another read with me video, I enjoyed it very much and I replayed it a few times while I was reading.

Hi Morgan, I'm new to your channel 👋🏼 wow, what beautiful videos you make. I found you via your "read with me" video, which I continue to read with. I can't wait to catch up on your previous videos. Do you have formal training in cinematography or photography? Your home & surroundings are so beautiful. I have ordered 5 non fiction books to better educate myself, and I agree with what you said 🖤

[@MorganLong]

Hi, Sara(h)! I’m so glad you’ve found your way to my channel. I once took a photography class in high school when I was about 16. Other than that, I’ve had no formal training. I do make videos for a living though and have learned so much out in the field. Thank you for appreciating my home and the small details 💛

Hahaha, we do own a TV! We actually went a year without one but then I got really sick with the flu and literally couldn't do anything, not even read. So Landon surprised me by going out and buying some OJ and a TV!! It's one of my favorite memories ☺️ That being said, we hardly ever use it but really do enjoy it when we do! Landon is my boyfriend 😊 We've been dating for nearly 5 years now and have lived together the past 2. He's the kindest most positive human I know!
