DeWayne, I'm a 48-year-old man here in the old country, (England). I just want to say that your videos have meant a lot to me in so many ways over the past year or two, when at times, I have felt certain things crashing around me. You have given me a sense that the eternal still matters out there somewhere and reminded me of how I lost touch with nature and what it truly is to be human and a man. God bless you, sir.

“We’re not alone; we’re just not in the same room.” Just lovely. Thank you.

Loneliness/depression has a way of convincing you that you are the only one that's experiencing it. The mind is often your worst enemy

As someone who will be spending her 23rd Christmas alone here are a few things that have got me through that I hope may help: 1. Like Dwayne says - speak to strangers. Smile at the road worker, bus driver or postal worker - they may be having a bad day too 2. If you're alone at Christmas go volunteer at a food bank or homeless shelter - that'll put Life into perspective, trust me! 3. Remember - Christmas is only three days long then life gets back to normal 4. If the Christmas festivities, carols, TV adverts etc trigger you, get your food shopping delivered to your home instead 5. Instead of seeing 'couples' everywhere you go look for the man trudging home alone in the dark; or the woman looking sad on the bus - they may well be going home to an empty home too so smile and wish them "Happy Christmas" in passing It's tough being alone in life and if I could lift this burden off people I'd do so in a heartbeat. Stay strong - you are not alone, I promise.

Dwayne, I lost my wife last year of 24 years. Together, we had 4 kids. I've been tasked since her passing to finish what we both started. I was turned onto your channel months ago by my 18 year old son. Your words, your outlook, have been a blessing to me. Thank you.

“Our Bible is hidden down at the bottom of our duffel bag and until we bring out and lay it out on the bed. Ain’t nobody else gon bring their’s out and lay it on the bed either!” A word! Great video, thank you!

Y'know, I almost did not click on this video, but something told me to. I'm a 25 year old truck driver (who hauls milk for a living), who has no significant others, no stable house to come home to, or a family that I can see regularly. I've been feeling exhausted with life and lonely every day for a long time now. Hearing you mention my exact job title made me tear up uncontrollably, and it felt like something is calling out to me to do something about my life. Thank you, I will be weighing out my options now and seeing what change I can do to better my life.

I cant lie, i’ve gotten more knowledge and insight from you than I have from anyone in my family. I dont think you understand how much you’ve impacted my life and others. Thank you

I am not a Christian, but I believe in God and ask for his guidance often. I live alone, in the mountains in interior Alaska.. Don’t really have any friends, nor family.. but I have found that the more I talk to “God” (whatever that may be), the less alone I feel.

"No matter how isolated you are and how lonely you feel, if you do your work truly and conscientiously, unknown friends will come and seek you." ― Carl Jung (citing an Alchemist)

“We’re not alone, we’re just not all in the same room” thank you for your help

Funny thing about people! Some people don't believe in God until they Need God! I need God and Jesus every day of my life! That's a fact! God Bless you all

This is posted at one of the biggest low points in my life it all feels better hearing someone who’s so wise explain how to make changes thanks.

Jesus is Lord 🙏

Hello, I’m a 21 yr old man here in the good ol United States. (South Dakota). And I just wanted to comment a quote that I felt was very appropriate to this video and I want to share it. “Just continue doing your thing with as much integrity and love as possible.” I empathize with all peoples and I am optimistic about a better future. Because the laws of the universe state that as above so below. And the evil has been out weighing good for far too long. The pendulum is swinging in the other direction. Things take time and revolution doesn’t happen overnight. I know we’re all struggling. but remain optimistic and good luck!

Never lose hope, no matter how insane the world around you may feel.

this is not a channel, it is a guide for life. I'm an Italian guy, university student of computer science and car enthusiast, I know nothing about horses and I found this channel by chance on the home page some time ago...I clicked on that video and it was a blessing. In my journey I have a lot of difficulty and it seems that everything is going the wrong way...We are far away, we don't know each other, but you have no idea how much you are helping me

Dwayne, as a 50 year old guy myself living on the borderline between the city and country, I see the best and worst of both existences. My family has all passed away from illness, drugs, suicide, and everything in between until i was the only one left. Although I'm alone, I appreciate you spreading the message to other guys and especially the younger ones because there is some dark forces at work these days trying to tear our men down. Keep up the good work brother.

Your nature and way of speaking reminds me of my late husband who passed last May. He had a cam and gentle way of talking to others. But don’t get it confused, he was a man! Much like you. My husband could build things. He knew how to grow nice gardens. He could fix anything. He was a really good man that i loved, admired and respected. I sure miss him sometimes. Thank you for your videos. You are the man, father grandpa, so many people never had to talk to them in a calm and uplifting way. God bless you and your wife. May you always feel His love and never feel alone either. We are all here, grateful for the time you take and all the effort you put into these videos. ❤

Another thing I would like to add is the importance of not hiding your true thoughts and opinions because of the fear of being judged/excluded. You may be surrounded but many people who think the same way but if everyone is afraid and silent you all are going to feel alone in this world. Once I started expressing my authentic self, like-minded people started coming into my life like magnets.

Awe, man! It’s a shame that so many people have bad experiences with church. I’m grateful to have the church family that I have. The sad reality is, church is full of broken people and hurt people, hurt people. I pray you find a local gathering that exemplifies Christ. They do exist.

Hey everyone if you have had a bad experience in a church don't give up on finding a good church. There are still some good ones out there. The Lord says in His word that we are not supposed to forsake the gathering together of the saints. The Lord calls us who are followers of Jesus saints not because we are good in ourselves but because He is good in us when we allow His holy spirit to work through us. It's called a relationship not a religion. Please folks don't let some hypocrites in some churches keep you from spending eternity with the Lord Jesus. I pray this helps someone today. In Jesus Name. AMEN!

Sitting around the campfire with Dewayne would be on my bucket list if I had one. We are not alone and we are the majority! True words brother. God bless you and your family.

I appreciate this. I currently am almost bed ridden due to a car accident and back injury. Been difficult few weeks, family is far away, can't help take care of little ones. I feel alone. I am NOT alone. God bless you sir

Being a former chaplain for the trucking industry, I completely understand your sentiment. I left the faith many years ago and finally found peace through Taoism. I'm 46 years old, have been physically alone for many years, and far away from family. Recently, I have been going through very serious issues and had no transport for even basic needs. Called an Uber for the first time in my life. The driver literally was going through the same thing I was, got to my destination, and saw an old friend. He, too, was suffering from similar issues. My current situation hasn't been resolved yet, but my mental health has... because I know I'm never alone. Hope my perspective also helps someone. Dewayne, your wisdom is like sowing a seed in the wilderness. You never know what will grow and benefit in the future. Thank you, sir.

Just in time when my dad had a sermon in our church today about not being alone. Thank you so much!

Women out there also connecting with this cowboy's message. Thank you, Dwayne🌲

1 million subscribers soon. Keep teaching us, good sir.

Je suis loin de votre pays mais pourtant votre vision des choses m'inspire grandement... En France, nous avons beaucoup de problèmes aussi. C'est sûrement une sorte de ruralité qui nous rapproche, un respect pour les traditions et la nature aussi. Continuez comme ça Monsieur.

This man is like the father I never had. My Dad and stepdad love me, sure, but one is absent, and the latter; an alcoholic. Sometimes, when my ship hits rough seas and the shit hits the fan, I come to Dwayne's channel to absorb the wisdom that helps me weather the storm. Thank you, Dwayne. You are highly influential to me.

Thank you Dewayne for flapping your gums to everyone in this world who appreciates your integrity and insights! God bless you and yours, sir!

As a follower of Sri Raam (Hinduism), I’m still able to resonate with many of the teachings of Jesus. Loneliness started to hit me hard as I got older, but when I found my Lord, I felt His eternal presence. His mercy and His forgiveness is what holds me in my darkest despair. His name nurtures me when I’m starved. Jai Sri Raam God Bless❤️

2 Corinthians 5:10 NLT - For we must all stand before Christ to be judged. We will each receive whatever we deserve for the good or evil we have done in this earthly body.

Hello! My name is Dumitru and I am from the Republic of Moldova, a very small country with not much of a future. I am 21 years old and I think that my life is just beginning because at the moment I am not in my country, I am studying in Romania because I am trying my best to have a good future in what I can do, what I am good at is art and I am studying interior design. I made a small presentation so that you could get to know me at least a little and my situation in general at the moment. I wanted to say that since I discovered your channel about different topics of discussion about life and about your stories from the past, I wanted to say that it motivates me a lot and you lift me up in difficult moments in my life. When I watch your videos, it makes me feel that I have someone with whom I can discuss different topics that interest me as well, and in the last video, which is about the topic of "You are not alone...", it made me write more this message and thank you very much for somehow helping me to get through my difficult stages in life and I'm sure I'm not the only one who thinks so. If you're reading this message, thank you very much for what you're doing because it helps me to re-motivate myself in the things I do at the moment because lately I've been lost in my thoughts again, I was without motivation, I was sad that I didn't have money (And now I don't have money because I'm a student but I'm doing my best to do something to have this money :) ahhaha) and I was sad that I was far from home without my parents by my side. And when I wanted to beat myself up I simply said yes to watch your videos and they motivated me again. A big thank you once again from me, keep making videos like this because there are people who are lost and you are the person who talks them out of reality and makes them stand up again. A big greeting from Moldova and I really hope to meet you in reality and say these words to your face.

“we’re not alone, we’re just not in the same room.” thank you for this wisdom Dwayne!

My heart goes out to anyone who is suffering. I know it hurts. I wish for your healing and for you to thrive again. Life can be both cruel and generous. I wish the best to everyone out there. -Best Wishes

I'm single truck driver without a home it don't get that much more alone then this

I might add: Smile at a stranger, even if they have blue hair and gauges in their ears. Hold the door for someone. It's still a kind gesture that almost everyone appreciates. Make small talk with a cashier. Share an anecdote. Make a pop culture reference. Do anything that shows your human side. I've been practicing this, and it drastically reduces my feelings of cynicism, judgment, and isolation. I think it was Dolly Parton that sang, "You can't be a beacon if your light don't shine". Thank you, Dewayne.

I’m an 18 year old girl, this was the most relatable video I’ve ever seen. And so encouraging. Dewayne, i am so thankful for you

Hi Dwayne! Found your channel a few months ago and my husband is still deployed and I’m in the last trimester of pregnancy now. Going to church and confession, keeping up with friends and hearing more about God has made the wait more peaceful, taking it day by day and coping with seasons and changes. God doesn’t give us a challenge we can’t overcome with him. Thanks for your videos!

Your videos are always so inspiring. They're in a playlist of mine called Advice from Dwayne. As a 30 year old male, I understand being alone and loneliness. Felt it in 2022 with losing my mom and going thru so much grief. However I've mustered thru countless obstacles while regaining my peace and solitude to be the man I want to be. I'm still continuing those obstacles as everyone will. I've entered an acceptance state of mind. You can never tell what someone is going thru these days. Most days I'm thankful with what I have and what I can continue to do for myself along with those around me. Hope everyone has a good Sunday and a wonderful week ahead.

I’m an atheist to the core but I understand that feeling of needing to know that I’m not alone. There are good men all over, as you say, many of whom are suffering through this life. There’s great solace in knowing that you’re not alone. Thank you, Sir.

Your stories are fascinating! To some, you are as a father figure, that comforts them and encourages them to stay on the right path, your life seemed to have been full of wonderful experiences, and stories of encouragement. God bless you, thank you for being here for us.

I've been watching your videos on TikTok with full-destroyed mental health and a big hole of loneliness, and this notification pulls up. Thank you❤️

Paul Tillich, a Lutheran Theologian wrote that God is the “Ground of all Being”. So when we see good folks, and yes a good horse a good dog…..God, Christ is with us. When we can see the creator in all beings…we are never alone. That’s why it’s important to be in the “silent majority” that sees this. 🙏🙏🙏 Thanks for your post.

Thank you sir. Im a truckdriver spending all my days on the road. Seeing how some people with that wicked mindset are trying to take over. Like you say, they are a very small group but making a lot of noise. I don't like them/that. I have some friends who are like me , let's say, old-school. Do we have to take that crap that they want us to live by? No we don't and I never will .. I wish there were more people who would speak their mind and not being afraid of what others will think. We are still a majority, I'm sure, but no one comes out and say it. Nowadays you can't say what you standing for without risking to be prosecuted. That's imo why most of us stay silent Thanks again for this post .

as a woman watching your channel, the biggest cultural trend that hurts us females are men who are unwilling to commit. some of us are good, honest women with big hearts and lots of love to give. but we live in a world that’s says it’s okay to use us for sexual gratification and then leave. that’s not what a good man does and lots of find ourselves in places where we can’t find a real man who wants to provide and be there for us, so we can live in our feminine energy. i know im not alone in this, just looking for that good man out there.

Just that title alone. That's what I needed to see today. Dewayne thank you. I haven't even watched the video but I know I will thank you. I truly can't wait for that book of yours!

I know from experience that there are a lot of bad churches out there, but i also know that there are a lot of good ones too. I look at it like this, people will let you down, but Jesus has never and will never let me down. It is Jesus that I serve, so other people's opinions about me don't really matter. Thank you for another video, I realize this time of year is tough for a lot. I just want to encourage everyone, to put their trust and hope in Jesus. You won't be disappointed. Establish a daily prayer time, and ask God to lead and guide you into all truth- and He will. Read His Word. God bless

I was taught to speak to every person I pass on the street in my neighborhood. If folks aren’t open to it, I can read the room. Saying hello and acknowledging people in my community, especially elders, builds just that- community. No grand gestures, no loudness, just acknowledgment. We aren’t alone out here, we deserve sweetness from others and to share our sweetness with others. Sending love and holiday vibes!✨🎄💓🥂

"They're not the most mostest" that made me chuckle more than it should have.

Two divorces…. Over 22 years…then a 15 year relationship … I never found a real man… I was never appreciated… it just didn’t work out for me… now I’d rather be alone than living in a bad relationship just because. Thankyou for this video. I just became a subscriber and look forward to watching all your videos ❤

God bless you, Dewayne. Since accepting Jesus as my Lord and Savior I have felt very alone. I’ve grown out of my friend group and been discouraged to meet new friends. Thank you for your words, I could listen to you tell stories from the Bible all day haha. Peace and Love brothers and sisters ❤

Dewayne, your simple advice on cowboy vs rodeo energy has helped me tons over the past year. I appreciate these videos, thank you.

Your videos help me a lot. Always fighting clinically diagnosed depression and you name it. Am alone except for my dog all the time now. Was hit by a car that ran a red a few years back and it left me pretty damaged. I foolishly did my own damage by drinking soda and getting diabetes. I really appreciate this one DeWayne, as I’ve been pretty close to cracking. Just wanted to say I appreciate your videos, shared experiences, wisdom, and giving me something to look forward to as I need things like that these days. Only reason I’m still here is I don’t want to abandon my dog.

Not just gifted gab, you have a wide range of knowledge and experience, your straight and true, and have integrity and care we trust and appreciate. A timely timely message again. Thankyou

When you feel the most alone you've ever felt.. as if nothing will ever be okay again.. please know in your heart that Jesus is there ❤❤❤❤❤ you are not alone ❤❤❤❤❤

Well put. We don't talk anymore. We isolate ourselves and others with electronics. We all need to talk. Say hello. Sometimes it's all that person needed to be acknowledged. Blessings to all during this Holiday Season.

I cared for my Mom for 17 years and 34 hospitalizations, after my Dad passed away.There was a alot of sorrow, profound sorrow and grief, she passed away 5 years ago. She was my calling at that moment, and Compass if you will. Apart from all that, with God's help I would do it all over again. It was the most meaningful thing I've ever done. But now I have to start again, with Faith in God that He is going to help me. I am alone, no wife no kids, Maybe one of these days you can talk about that, starting again no matter what age. 😊

Love the line "It was an emblem of what we knew we ought to be". Regardless of your faith, i think most lost and naughty boys will get this

Duwayne, these talks of yours are deep, thought provoking and powerful. I know many are aimed at younger men, but I'm almost 46 years old and I'm man enough to admit that, while I may have learned a thing or two in life, I still have so much to learn. You've taught me a lot about life that I thought I already new. Some of your talks, including this one have also helped me through some pretty difficult periods and I can't thank you enough for that. God bless you and yours.

Thank you, sir. You stopped me from suicide 😢

Completely forgot that MOST PEOPLE feel the exact same way I do around the holidays. Lonely. It's reassuring the here that, that I'm not the only one.

It doesn't matter if we are the majority if we aren't organized.

We're all alone in this together. The great suffering that is life.

This guy hits home when we need it. 8:35 - 8:41 damn right 11:00 - 11:53 great message from the Bible.

"We're not in the same room." Yes, that's exactly the problem; the "modern, cheap" society you're talking about seems no longer a good enough canvas to paint human relationships. We need others to be ourselves, and we need to build communities; we need to gather around the same fireplace. You don't need to fix society to feel complete, you don't need to save the world; just finding a few people with the same general mindset is enough. We should create our own bubble first, as happiness is easily spread. Thank you for your videos Dwayne.

Mr Dwayne.., this was a great sermon, Thankyou Sir 👍

Thank you, Dwayne. I have a Christian background but had gotten away from that lifestyle and living it daily. I recently had to start AA meetings to get back to a life that I can be proud of and my family can be proud of. Can’t wait for the book so that I can keep you on the shelf for tough times. Keep on, brother.

I know that feeling I’m hanging on by a thread. Had 3-4 women who helped build my life pass away in the last couple years. One by the hands of the man who raised me. He completely got away with it and moved his mistress into my mom’s house. I still have my wife but I am falling apart. Not trying to be a complainer. Just having a hard time finding motivation. Did a lot of it to myself. Lot of guilt for not seeing what has happened comin. Or stopping it. Holidays don’t really feel holiday like. Wife is always good to me but we’re both still having it hard. Lots of death and sickness in our life currently. Thank you for your words it’s a dent in a big problem and it’s helpful. Thank you.

I like your show. It’s different. I work extra days in Dec. It’s mandatory. But it keeps me from sitting around, alone, feeling sorry for myself.

You are just so relatable. Watched your channel for a while. No, I have no interest in smoking or horses. I’m not much of a Christian but not here to put it down in any way. But what I do enjoy is that you help me to learn how to slow down and seek clarity. It’s easy to be caught up trying to make a living and respected that somewhere along the journey, you abandon even the simple things that made you who you are and what get you out of bed in the morning. And I feel like many of us are just chasing someone else’s dreams, and man I’m so tired of being so tired.

Thank you Mr. Dwayne, your words of wisdom help me daily sir.

Dwayne, everything designed comes with an owners manual to give us an idea on how it functions and how to maintain it over its life span ..... It make sense that we were provided with one also. Never feel alone...

We might feel alone, and sometimes we actually are. But if we stay open we automatically gravitate to people who are similar and we connect on a unconcious Level. Sometimes just for some hours but I prefer quality over quantatity in almost every case.

Dewayne you are a thinker no doubt about it. Just came off a particularly lonely Thanksgiving myself, what a graceful reminder this video is of goodness. I think theres a lot to say, too, about pulling out your bible from the bottom of the duffle bag first. Although sometimes I feel like its very hard to do. I think this holiday season ill try and be that kinda person. Last years holidays were definitely more lonely, and i wont let it become chronic. Thank you again

Wise words as always. I used to be a real loner introvert type of guy. But over recent years I broke out of my shell and have made a dozen or so friends. I mean good close friends. I’ve made a lot of relationships. I have friendships and strong family connections. But i am still no stranger to being alone. I have never made any significant advances in any sort of romantic relationship. I am only 18 so take my words for what they are worth. But I’ve never had a girlfriend or anything that involves. I am going to get one, I don’t know how but I will no doubt about it. I know a lot of young guys my age who have never had any romance and don’t even know where to start. I don’t know if you got any advice Dewayne, but if you do I’d love to hear it.

Im one of those ladies. I don't feel so alone. Thank you for the encouragement.

"Get up in the morning, assess the damages, and do what you can do." ~BBRS

Greatly appreciated in these very evil times. I know I'm not alone, though I've definitely felt like Eliyahu the prophet of YAH Most High. I've never felt more isolated and alone since coming to faith, though I'm grateful for YAH has done so many miracles and helped me draw closer to him during these years of isolation. I literally spend almost every day just with myself, my Messiah Yahushua, and my heavenly Father YaHuWaH Elohiym Most High and His Ruach Ha'Qodesh (set apart breath of truth, aka the Comforter). So grateful for all your videos brother. YAH bless you and your family and loved ones. Shalom

Not exactly related to your message in specific, but this Friday after one of my cats was put to rest, I posted about him in a handful of places, and was really surprised to see the number of people who reached out to make sure I was alright. Something so unfortunate ended up making me very thankful for all the people that care about me.

Dwayne, your "gift of gab" always seems to hit home with me especially when I need it the most. Thank you for putting yourself out there for everyone and delivering positive messages.

I am so blessed. The Lord is my greatest comforter. And and He has never left me alone without any person. He gave me a mother that loves Him and she taught me to do the same. Tho I strayed for a wile I'm back now, I am so blessed

Blessings 🙏 to you and your family

Someone here from Germany? Searching for like-minded men. My name is Josef, I am 22 years old. God bless.

I'm not religious but this video made me feel very included and accepted. Thank you!

You are humble and have so much wisdom. Not just an amazing communicator.

Thank you, sir. Everyday GOD is with me! Praying often all day is something that I strive for. It's a conscious thought I carry with me. Sometimes I fail, but I keep carrying on

Dwayne, you are so right about feeling alone. As a US Marine I went around the world twice to several different countries on 4 continents. I was in Somalia and felt alone for a long time after that experience even though I was surrounded by good Christian men and women. In Somalia I did other combat related things, but the thing that stuck in my mind the most (still does) was the midnight patrol where I walked over body parts of men, women, and children. young, old, and infants laying in the streets. Then, unknowingly because in the moonlight things didn't appear as they would in daylight, I walked through ankle deep human blood in the street. We didn't realize at first what we were walking over and through right away. The horror set in back at the checkpoint when I realized the liquid that soaked through my boots into my socks was human blood. When I told people my experience their eyes would glaze over - they didn't understand. I felt so alone during that time. Not even my then wife wanted to talk about it. After surrendering it to Jesus he led me to people who understood. You are so right.

Amen 🙏. I'm a Woman and Your words are helping Men, and Women that are trying to love on and support/encourage, be the help that We were created to be to a Man. Women are *usually natural Nurturers. Yet so much has changed. I will be a Lady, and God will continue to guide Me and the Men I love and pray for... Thanks again& be blessed Dwayne, Sir and Friend.❤

Thankyou.

Man I've been watching Dewayne's videos for several months now and I can't express how grateful I am for having found this channel. The messages that you put out are so valuable and needed that is feels like a fresh breeze in a hot day. God bless you all folks

I liked your correspondence about working class people to being the silent majority because I am one myself. (diesel mechanic) And i too have realized that a lot people like us dont carry as much of a voice to the public, yet a lot of us feel the same way about the state of the world.

Well of course no one is ever alone! Even if we’re physically alone, we’re never spiritually alone. Ever.

thank u for the video much respect from turkey

Greetings from Brazil, Sir. Thank you for the video!

I know your a busy guy and probably won't see this. I don't normally comment or interact with youtuber's, but your content has genuinely changed my life. Your wisdom is unsurpassed and has improved my life with every video I watch.

It's not what you say, it's how You say it. Thank You Sir.🎯

If we are all created in the image of the Lord, I could be within the company of One Mighty Angel... And it really helps to pull me through. Hats Off to You, Sir! 🤠🎩
