  1. A lot of religion has led to people letting others think for them and it honestly is a massive problem. That being said, faith isn't about that, putting your belief in a higher power can and has for many people been what drives them to be better people and create positive change in the world. Personally I'm a Christian and the more I've gotten into it the more I've been able to separate the true, real faith that God wants us to have from the organizations people put together that are supposed to help you with that and oftentimes do the opposite. So yes religion can and often does have that effect but like many of the most kind and humble people of God that I know have clued me in on, Christianity isn't about a religion, it's about the relationship toy have with God. Just wanted to put that out there since a lot of people don't know that difference.

  4. "If you believe in something, run with it"

    I started putting people limits, and actively trying to not let others talk to me as they please. People react really bad to that, screaming and making myself feel guilty and stupid for saying things like, "That thing you said offended me. Could you please not say it again?"

    In my head, in my opinion, saying that is the most peaceful and adult way of solving a problem. You said something that hurt me? Don't worry, I know it wasn't intentional. Just be more careful next time, okay? But no. People yell at me, and act like I'm some kind of alien. That triggers all my insecurities.

    What if I'm too weak? What if what I'm doing is actually stupid? It might be that I'm just too sensitive, and the things that hurt me are actually not that serious to be worth setting boundaries for. Maybe they are right, and I am wrong. Maybe this idea of "My feelings should be respected" is just an illusion and the world just doesn't work that way. "Just man up, you baby", my mind tells me.

    And then this random person on the internet, that doesn't know me, that doesn't know what I've being through, says "If you think it is worth trying, go for it". I broke in tears when I heard that, and I'm still crying while writing this, out of pure relief and happiness, knowing that someone out there, someone I respect, and I consider really grounded and wise, actually approves fighting for what you believe is right.

    That reminded me of another quote that I sadly forgot, but that for the longest time, was one of my life principles: "Be the person you want to see in the world; do what you want others to do themselves".

    I know that I'm not offending anyone, and if they tell me I do, I apologize and put a lot of effort into not repeating that mistake. I'm not doing anything wrong, I'm not just "a baby"; I'm trying my best to promote respect, because that is my ideal of how the world should be. I'm open to adapt, to change, but I will not do it just because someone else is too immature to try to understand my point of view, and decides to instead yell at me that "You're wrong for being offended" (which people actually said to me, btw).

    Thanks, Alok. From the bottom of my heart, thank you… I needed this, and you gave it to me without asking for anything in return. With tears of relief in my eyes, thank you…

  5. 2022 grad here, and oh my god I'm so happy I came across this. This is literally what I needed to help me transition into the world not just to help myself, but also everyone around me. Still smiling while typing this up, this made my day. <3

    Edit: also yes, memes are the one shining light left in this world, and we need to embrace them and spread the love with the whole world

  6. You know it‘s nice receiving a graduation speech. At last I experienced a virtual one before failing and dropping out of college. Well, at least for me it‘s better than staying in college and destroying myself methodically over the last two years.

  7. I Graduated in 2016 from high school. I realized my PTSD of 11 years & the 6 years of wasting life away on dead end jobs I picked a lot up on this video alone. I mean shit I've been off anti-depressants, alcohol, smoking, even relationships/sex since I turned 18. I'm now coming on 24 years old realizing all the mental health issues I have and had over my lifetime. Every day I use VRChat as a means of coping with many of my mental health problems because I can't afford traditional therapy. I mean hell my friends who were there with my via Day 1 of my return to VRChat and a recent wisdom teeth removal session irl kinda 180's my mental health for the better. I can't even explain what flipped in my brain, but being put under for my surgery after waking up I had a sudden life revelation on my entire existence. I even quit my toxic workplace to move on to better pastures. Thanks Dr. K for all your hard work you put in. I'm also self-aware that my life purpose is to help others to the best of my ability. Now my mental health is stabilizing (Not sleeping less than 4 hours like I have been the last year) I feel as if I'm ready to start hustling so I can be there for others. TLDR: Thanks Dr. K for always putting out quality advice and videos over the years. Honestly I don't know where I'd be without the many communities I'm a part of. <3
