hi my name is Simon and I decided to

make this video as a culmination of

everything I've learned in the past year

if you don't know I've been on a journey

to spread positivity and help those

struggling with mental illnesses on

tik-tok and I wanted to create a single

body of work just something I could

throw all my mind and soul into that

would maybe help someone out there so

without further ado here's a video to

watch when you're sad if you're watching

this first realize that the fact that

you're still breathing and still here is

a miracle through every bad time every

break down every anxiety attack every

episode you're still here and I know I

can't even start to understand how hard

it really was but you're here and you

owe yourself a smile for that to get to

this video you either have to find it on

youtube somewhere or be one of the 1% of

people to come from my older social

media every minute more than 500 hours

of video are being uploaded to youtube

yeah you made it here and while you may

just think it's a coincidence and I feel

as if you're here for a reason I'm here

for you I'm proud of you for making it

this far I'm sorry if you don't get that

enough I'm proud of you

if you're watching this you're probably

under 20 years old and considering that

the average life span of a human is

around 80 years which by the way we will

definitely live longer than your only

less than 25% through your life you also

have only met an insignificant portion

of people that you share this planet

with it's crazy that you can go a whole

life only meeting less than 1% of the

population in that same way there's so

much more to this planet than you've

experienced yet and in that unknown or

beautiful amazing people so don't give

up on it yet

there are good people there are good

places out there and as you get older

and experience more of life you'll see

this be grateful of what you can and be

cautious of those you surround yourself

with and continue to persist life is so

weird and annoying and irritating

because no one has an answer to why we

are here we don't all have a purpose

inherently put upon us so we create that

purpose

find that purpose and wake up each

morning motivated to do something

whether it's creating art or working out

or just making people smile purpose is

what keeps us going at the end of the

day but you have so much time the future

is full of smiles of late nights under

the stars of spontaneous road trips with

friends that you have yet to meet the

future is what you make it you're going

to be a great parent one day and raise a

kid that is literally a clone of you a

mini you how crazy is that you're going

to meet so many new people and lovers

and have so many more amazing

experiences so keep living one day

you're going to be a hundred years old

on your deathbed with your children and

grandchildren by your side and you're

going to want nothing but to live

another day no matter how hard it was no

matter how many tears were shed we only

have one life so hold on to it it's your

most valuable possession while you don't

have to love it now hold on to it keep

waking up keep fighting keep laughing

keep smiling keep crying keep living

because that's all we got and I promise

if you do this it will get better we're

all here for you love you so much and

there's always keep a wholesome

you
