Watching this video 2 years later, then clicking his account and seeing he’s travelling the world after saying he wants to but it’s impossible, is just so reassuring and lovely

“ it doesn’t get easier, you get stronger “ Life works in circles, happy, sad, angry, scared, and all the way back to the start, trust it will always come back around to happiness

"You know what? Maybe life isn't so bad after all" 💗

Crying so bad right now, don't know what to do with my life, but i guess its okay not to be okay sometimes:(

We’re all the main characters of our own lives, why do we make it so embarrassing to put ourselves first?

I would trust Simon with my drink at a party

“it's okay to be lost” thank you, man.

"we fell in love in october" was the song of me and my girlfriend. I miss her so much and I've wanted to talk to her about things and think about her all the time, despite my friends saying she was bad for me. I live with severe depression and she felt that I needed to figure things out before anything else. This video made up my mind. I'm going to talk to her again. Wish me luck. Update: I've moved on and found someone new, and she is perfect in every way. I'd do anything for her. These feelings are feelings I didnt know were possible. So I know no one is gonna read this, but whatever you're going through, itll turn around someday.

Sitting in my bed crying and can't think of any way life could get better but your video just helped, I cannot explain how but it came like a bandage on an open wound

I felt like crying when he said 'it gets better' because my sister once told me 'it always gets better' when I was at my worst (I think). Thank you, Simon. -A struggling minor

“Maybe parking lots are the cure to depression” - Simon

You are one of those rare people that you can find in the world who just needs to be protected because you're so special. I love your mindset, and it's so inspiring. Keep it up

"I feel kinda lost" to "oh btw do you like my crocs"😂; love the contrast haha. Love this video & you're really talented!

its incredibly calming to see ppl enjoying life with the smallest actions

"it's okay to feel lost" I NEEDED THIS. IM GONNA GO OUT NOW AND TRY TO REFRESH MY MIND, THANK YOU SO MUCH

my dad passed away 2 months ago and I was freaking out today because I took a semester off for college and now I don’t know if I even want to continue, I’m literally a freshman. I was having a mental break down today and I saw this vid in my recommendations and it rlly comforted me

Cleaning and listening to this makes me so motivational

i lost all my friends and because of that i'm finally able to be the real me and express my actually style and just be overall free. i love your vibes and mindset simon bad weeks, months, or even years happen, but there are good outcomes so please keep it wholesome and keep pushing :) im proud of you. thank you and thank you over and over again simon. keeping it wholesome, also love that you listen to girl in red

Bro, for anyone struggling, don’t ever give up on life. There are so many things that you still haven’t done yet and you would be missed so much. You are surrounded by people who love and support you and you shouldn’t ever hesitate to ask for help. Life gets so much better. Trust❤️

I want a friend like this 🥺 I wish more people got deep and realistic like this, thank you.

The beauty about this world is knowing someone is also feeling the same way as you.. and for the first time, you're no longer scared to go through another day.

Its okay to feel lost, just never forget where you're going.

Dude. I’m literally feeling exactly what you’re feeling. I felt like I had everything and lost it. I don’t know why or how I lost it and I don’t know how to get it back

This video changed my mental health. A few months ago i was extremely depressed and i had alot of anxiety. Your videos relieved so much of my stress. I'm no longer that negative person i once was, i'm starting to become alot more positive. Thanks you so much Simon

"maybe parking lots are the cure to depression" my goodness it is

His vibe is so peaceful

“It’s okay to feel lost, it’s okay to be hurt,” hit harder than it should’ve 💀

This guy is actually a mobile therapist, my dad has COVID and was told this morning he might not have long left, I can’t slow my breathing because I freaking out, I’ve never had someone I’m close to pass, I looked up how to deal with stress you’ve never felt before and he came up. I’ve only watched 4 videos but I feel so much better, truly thank you to this guy he really helped me in only 2 hours Edit: to put it in context, just last week I was going fishing with him and helping him pack his house so he can move, he moved 5 days and then I got a call from him telling me he has COVID, I thought nothing off it, then just yesterday my mom rushed home from work crying telling me and my brother to look at the face time cuz it might me our last chance, then this morning I was told again that he doesn’t have very long left, I can’t even see him because the doctors won’t pick up the phone because they’re busy and I can’t see in person cuz he’s 3 states away

I confess that every time I feel lost and tired, I come here because this video makes me feel that I am not the only person in the world who feels lost with life

We have so much to say when we're alone But lots of us can barely think of anything to say when we're with someone else

I'm turning 19 tomorrow and let's just say this video helped me a lot. I've been feeling scared and confused about what the future holds. Thank you for this!

Loved how Simon's videos aren"t really planned, especially this one because it feels like you're talking to a friend

ive been having i think the worst weeks i’ve had in my life so far, i couldn’t even work up the courage to go to school today because i was freaking out so bad, i just came on youtube for a distraction and i saw this video and now i’m crying hahahejf thank you for this man

you really are something special, you were put on this earth for us to see. No religion or politics involved, no hatred just pure content wether its 2 weeks ago or 2 years ago your content is beautiful

:) GIRL IN RED IS ELITE also downtown by peep will be a vibe. Love you Simon, keep it wholesome.

it's currently 4:30am, I just finished watching the video and proceeded to bawl my damn eyes out (the acoustic version of heather at the end put me in my feels so bad). this video really made me think and I am so damn grateful for it as well as all of the amazing content you put out there. keep it wholesome and pls keep making me bawl my eyes out

it’s such a warm feeling to hear that someone is feeling lost and trying to find themselves when you’re going through the same thing. being me just feels new, and see that there’s other people that is trying to figure out the way of their life it’s comforting. thank you a lot, simon

Sitting on my bed crying , just starting college at 23. It feels overwhelming,I feel behind cause my friends have graduated

this just randomly came up on my feed 2 years later and me feel a whole lot better :) love your mindset bro

I had this sudden feeling of coming back to this video to comment. My whole life quote and what I’ve always been preaching to my friends is “everything happens for a reason”. However, for a couple of days I’ve been feeling empty, I have had panic attacks and cried hard. I have no idea what the reason is and it seemed like I couldn’t pull myself out. I was so obsessed with the thought of “being happy again”. Which made me feel bad and mad at myself for not being able to feel happy. Right now, I’m at more peace. I’m breathing, keeping myself busy and letting everything go. Good things, good days will come.

Hey man, whatever you’re going through, stay strong king. And thank you, I really needed this video.

This is the kind of down to earth, time-slowing message that puts life in perspective. Thank you.

You seen like such a nice person to be around btw love your TikToks and videos

so crazy how im going through horrible stuff rn and I wound up finding this video in my recommended 2 years after you posted it:,) thank you for this simon

Okay! Overthinking sucks💔 Just keep going everyone, it's alright

This video was recommended on youtube, and i can not explain how much it has actually impacted my life just watching it, for a while now i have been lost too, with no way of figuring out how to move forward and whenever i try to the self doubt just kicks in and im just hard on myself. This is really soo inspirational thank you soo much.

Girl in red legit has those LiS vibes. A game which truly made me learn to appreciate life and stop taking everything for granted. To actually live, love and laugh. To form beautiful relationships and to find the deeper meanings in things.

Recently in my country Iran Everything is so bad ... But your video did calm me down now at least a little "Everything happens for a reason" I needed to hear it Thank you.

"i cant help but feel like if we die without experiencing all these things of people that we share this planet with do we really know what its like to be human" ill think about this forever now, in a positive way. I know wanna try even more, i wanna see the world, try being positive and maybe humans arent so bad after all?

Thankyou for making this video, It’s so soothing to hear that it’s okay if you still haven’t figured things out

Your voice is very calm and I love that

I’ve body shamed so many times on my life and insecure about myself. And I’ve lost so many people but that those moments made me stronger and I’ve been trying to focus on myself i and I found a lot that I didn’t know like I’m really good and writing and drawing. And I want to thank you for making these video cause you helped me so much. Love you Simon and as you like to say, keep it wholesome✨

3 years later and this video is talking so deep with me. Thank you so much for share this with us.

Im suffering from probably the worst mental health I’ve ever had in life. Anxiety through the roof all day everyday starting the moment i wake up. I watched this video probably about a month or so ago and it rly opened my eyes on my current issue. I feel like we all need to hear that its going to be okay every once in a while. Thank you

Read this in some book : Everytime you feel lost, be grateful. Because being lost in life, is a sign by the universe that you've grown. Everytime you grow and head towards a new chapter in life, the universe throws a new hurdle at you. Each bigger than the last. And that's just the beauty of it. The proof of your growth. And that a new, better you is waiting for you to overcome those moments where everything appears to be juggling with your sanity "

Yes, everything does happen for a reason. Because here I am watching this video 2 years later on a day I'm really needed to hear this. :') Thank you! ♥️

I completely and totally agree. The ability to find peace and beauty in the smallest and randomness of things is what brings the world to life. It's easy for life to speed up and for you to look over the small details, but noticing and appreciating little things is what makes me happy :)

I truly needed to hear what he said, thank you for sharing this! And thanks to KZfaq for recommending it!

Man, thats exactly what i needed to hear, thank you man for being such a kind and sincere person. I love you man

I'm literally crying here but I just wanna say thank you for all your videos

Thank you! I heard the words I needed to hear. Sending all of my love, and support to every and each of you guys.

Every time I feel bad I come back here, and this video is definitely a part of my life, thank you, Simon, this is so lovely, I love souls like yours.

I was watching these videos when I was so down, in such a terrible head space and had faced too much exposure to solitude. And I really needed someone, something, anything to understand & give me a reason to keep going in this life. You’re such a savior to me & so many people. YT can really be a toxic place to an extent but ppl like you using it to relate & spread love is amazing. I just had to come back years after I’ve watched this & say thank you. Thank you so much.

I’m just happened to see this video. And well idk but it is what i need right now. since i felt kinda lost lately, living away from family and got no friends around to share thoughts. Every second of this is so healing and therapeutic. Thank you. that was so motivated. For myself and everyone feeling lost right now, dont give up and keep it wholesome 😊

Been having some pretty rough days lately. I’ve never watched any of your videos before and suddenly this one appears on my timeline. Made me feel good. You seem like a cool dude, keep doing you

Thank you so much for your positive kind energy 🥹🤎 this was beautiful

I found this video randomly and it is sooo grounding. So wholesome. It’s the little things that bring joy too. Everything is meant to be. I was meant to watch this!!

This is so pure and wholesome .... thank u for that

My mental health isn't that great lately but this is helping me so much, Thank you for this amazing and inspiring content! You feel at peace in a parking lot, I feel at peace when I'm watching your videos at 1 am in the garden :) I really think your videos are gonna change my live

im so mad i just discovered this, i feel like a friend is talking to me, so comfortable

It’s okay to get lost along the way as long as you remember your destination

Things do happen for a reason💘 I had some tough times but now I’m getting back up. Don’t give up you got this and as always keep it wholesome 💕

You have a 'soulmate' essence. I resonate with this video so deeply. I've never seen any of your other videos before, but I'm definitely going to be checking out your channel.

"you know what, maybe life isnt so bad after all, think about that"

this just showed up in my recommended now but i’m honestly so thankful it did?? especially since i’ve been feeling pretty overwhelmed with life recently, this was definitely something i needed to hear since it really allowed me to just stop and think for a moment, so thank you so much for this video :,) and i hope it can reach others who are also probably feeling down or just need a pause in their life.

Thank you. I was having anxiety and felt like my depression will crawl out anytime soon. This video calms me tonight. Thank you.

this video was 2yrs ago and it appeared now on my feed when I really needed to hear those words ♥️ thank you. everything indeed happens for a reason

I truly think this is a sign as I lay on my bed at 4:00 am watching this video I am at the lowest that I have been in a while and this video just happens to pop up out of nowhere and the message in this video really stuck out to me, especially right now, so I thank you for giving me a little bit more hope and a new perspective

i needed to watch this today. i've been going through a lot right now and i always keep in my mind that everything happens for a reason and the way you showed it gave me hope again. thank you

This video is such a vibe to be in . I love such content creators who make people feel good about themselves ,even when things don't go well ...stuff like this is like a warm cup of coffee or a pause to be taken in mental chaos and comparision ⭐

I think i am gonna cry, i just need a hug. I love u and ur videos so much, keep it wholesome Simon!!

I just came across this at a point where I really needed something relatable, thank you man.

Boom, new comfort video. This was really calming. Thank you

I can’t tell you HOW MUCH you’ve helped me, Simon. You make me so motivated and make me realize that the world is not on my shoulders; like you said, “you realize that the world actually goes really slow.” That is so meaningful to me. You helped me through life, gave me love, taught to love the darkness, and love myself, and I thank you so so much❤️. (Plus helping others) What your doing in this video(driving around and chilling, walking around and seeing life), I have always wanted to do that. I’m not old enough yet to drive and even go on a walk just by myself because my parents don’t want me to be lost or get hurt(I also live in a safe neighborhood), but it’s understandable. The closest I can be free outside is on my driveway. I can see the nature and stars so clearly, like your free, you feel amazingly calm and happy. It’s so nice to do it. Again, thank you so much and I hope you see this. Thank you, and I will support you forever❤️❤️.

We all need a person like Simon in our life & that’s a FACT

After 3 years, and going through a very painful heartbreak. This just hits.

this video feels like a warm hug. thank you.

thank you Simon!

Just got rejected from Harvard yesterday and I don’t know how to feel right now. I worked really hard and I just feel lost, this video helps. Update : I got into Cornell! 😊

Everything was so noisy and overwhelming. This helped so much!! Thank you

please never lose your light. please. we need people like you. thank you.

For some reason, it feels nice sharing your thoughts with people online. Even if you may never see them in real life. It just feels comforting knowing that random people around the world are sharing the same problems with you. Venting like this.

I don’t have a great past and I have a lot of emotional damage and listening to these just makes me feel like I want to keep living...I’m so glad I found this page

OMG I love your vibe bro it's too light and happy you're happy with your company and that makes the vibe feel great

im seeing this video a while after its been posted but it honestly helps. the idea that everything happens for a reason is something i don't really consider a lot, especially stuff that hurts and eats me up inside, just the notion that it happened for something better to take shape is really comforting. thank you.

The person who meant everything to me, the person who I’d do anything for broke up with me 3 days ago and you videos are really helping me, these are the videos I’ve really been needing

Thank you for this. I really needed to change my mindset and this really helped. And for anyone reading this, it will eventually get better. I promise.

"Maybe life isn't so bad after all..." yeah I love that part❤

I just randomly came across your videos on my fyp and dude watching your videos makes me rethink all the negative shit I think about . I love your content , your videos somehow changed my life
