“You ARE an idiot” why does that sound like such a compliment with his voice

"You do not educate a man by telling him what he knew not,” wrote John Ruskin, “but by making him what he was not".. I consider The School of Life videos and materials my true education..I learned with you what matters in life, what is mature love, a proper prespective on history and politics, and the value of an uneventful day..Bless you for everything you did and do

I find this channel so reassuring in that I am not the only idiot and failure in the world.

@luluandmeow
Cheerful despair! Fake it till you feel it. I like to wear a serene expression on my face and I've come to really feel it, as walking, especially in nature, lifts my depression
@DivyanshuChowdharyJi
I have said it before and I will say it again: "This is one of the Best Channels on Youtube."
@ouitamata
4:21 "compatibility isnt a prerequisite for love. it is the achievement of love." So this is where i have been going wrong...

This channel was what aided in starting my process of recognizing and growing from my mental breakdown last season.

Alain writes so beautifully. I'm grateful for his existence.

"We don't count one bit in the grander scheme. That should be a liberation." I love this so much. I've tried to convey this sentiment to several people... for some reason, many find it quite frightening to think that, nothing actually matters. I realized when I was 20 that I'm a nihilist, and was maybe like 20 and 1/2 when I realized what a relief that is. That nothing matters. That I could fuck up monumentally, more than anyone had ever fucked up before in the world, and it wouldn't even matter at all. 100 years from now, no one will even know my name. I'm grateful for that. Still not sure how that terrifies people...
