There is such a difference in you. I can see there has been a little different makeup, hair style, even the way you move. After you have gone through a very difficult time and found a way to move forward; you are glowing. Thanks for sharing this new life and journey; i am sure it will be inspiring to many.

Thank you so so much for this beautiful & kind reflection. I am honored to receive it & it means so much to read. ♥ Grateful for you being here!

Sometimes, as a mother, when i can have alone time I actually dont know what to do other than to sip coffee and watch a youtube video. I get so wrapped up in the things of life that i forget to do the things i used to do. This encourages people i think in all walks of life. This makes me excited for the alone time i will have as i have a few ideas now and feel inspired to fill my tank and nurture myself.

I feel you, that mom panic when you have a few moments alone...What do I do??!! Clean my house, relax? If you're like me, you can't relax until you know the house is clean.

I realized I have spent more of my life alone then with someone. Rarely have I been lonely but rather I enjoy the solitude. I can go out with friends for lunch or run errands and then I find I m so ready to be home again. It's a lovely thing to enjoy your own company. Stay happy dear one!

So true Randi! I, too, have been alone, but not lonely for about 15 years. It's a wonderful, magical place, to embrace who you are, learn new things and find peace in your heart. It's a huge life lesson to know self-love and no matter what or who leaves you'll be ok because that love for you is inside you. You have friends in the forest, friends in the flowers, friends in your art and your beautiful dog. You learn to do small things with great love and you don't have to live up to anyone's expectations but your own. Congratulations! you'll be surprised how many of us are on the other side with you. Be well my dear, you're off to an incredible start. The world awaits you with open arms 💖

So glad you’re back sharing your new life flying solo! Very inspiring

Always happy to see your notification pop up, artist girl!❤😊

I enjoy the colors that you pick for your art work. To me they are so warm and inviting to my eyes. I am unable to buy but for now, I will pause the video to see each detail. Your art is beautiful! Thanks.

I have occasionally seen your videos and haven't been back in a while. And then I found this video and it resonates so deeply with me as I'm in a similar situation. What you created here is a true work of art, it' s like your soul has been liberated for all to see. I shed some tears here and there. And did I spy a painting of the Cottage fairy on your wall? She's one of my favorite creators and I miss her while she's on leave. But I sense that you will help fill that void with your equally beautiful vision of your inner and outer landscapes. I guess, I've come here to stay:-) Thank you for spreading your magic, truly♡

That was really visually gorgeous! That was a lot of daisies in one field, and then the scene where the deer dashed off was so pretty. Was the purple flower in that scene lupine?

I’m also an introvert and sensitive person and found your words very comforting and relatable. I look forward to watching your next video 🙂❤️. Take Care, Sophie 🌸

I feel so much calmer now that I live alone for 2.5 years now. It's like a breath of fresh air, like I have freedom now over what to do and how to behave myself, it's a new way for me to express feelings, I even think my cat now prefers the same. I enjoy my own company (and my cat's, she's amazing and makes me better as a person) and I guess we'll never be lonely as long as we embrace all the good things that come with the walking this path of life.

Yes, I absolutely love that - 'we'll never be lonely as long as we embrace all the good things that come with the walking this path of life'. And even the hardships too!

You are a beautiful soul! This video made me so happy for you. It's so wonderful and freeing to see someone finally being themself, unashamed. I've had those feelings off and on for years and when I was finally able to let go it felt so right, like it was always there waiting for me to let go. It must be such a wonderful thing to be out there in nature with your Creator feeling a closeness to God and knowing you are not truly alone. He's shining on you helping you to be the person He always wanted you to be.

Hi Randi. You are looking lighter this video- I mean happier. The weight of the grief is lifting off you. Grief is hard. You have good days and bad days. Time is a great healer. Randi you are getting through this, Bless You🙏 I too lived with fear going on walks by myself. I did a women's self defence course, it helped me to feel safer knowing that I could defend myself if necessary. I also had Rottweilers all my adult life until recently as I needed to feel safe. I used to love going on midnight walks in the summer whilst the world around me was asleep. There's something very special about night walks. I now have a little dog. She's quite feisty and protective. I don't go on midnight walks anymore, but I do live rural and just go outside and listen to the cows next door and look up at the starry sky. Keep moving forward 🙏💖💐 🌌

You are beautiful and talented. Your surroundings are breathtaking. You are such a sweet soul, and this is a time of rest, restructuring and being at peace with who you are becoming. I have lived in a town for 14 yrs with no friends, not easy but I have my husband and I care for my adult son who has health issues. I have spent most my life doing for everyone, giving everything and every part of myself, that I am content right now. You inspire me with your talent, your art and your thoughts. Amazing things are waiting for you when the time is right, and you are living such a beautiful life. Keep embracing nature and trust this journey. ((hugs))

What a gorgeous video. It has brought some sunshine into quite a grey Scottish summer just now. Love the foxgloves - mine are so tall this year and thronged with busy bees stoically fighting the raindrops. I have a solitary life right now but am never lonely so I can totally relate to what you say. I think this experience-painful though much of it must have been-will serve to enrich your life and strengthen your mind and soul. One day you will of course share your life with someone-they are out there right now I am certain under the same sun and moon. That's kind of magical. You are setting a great example of how to heal and helping others by sharing the process is in itself part of that healing. Onwards and upwards !

I know it’s not the same but I found great comfort from this. I got a condition called POTS from when I had Covid. Basically it’s a collection of symptoms that affect my autonomic nervous system making walking and being upright hard. So I spend about 95% of time in my room, much of that in bed. I have my art closet/studio here and a reading nook and bathroom but I’ve been deeply lonely (in this house full of people.) it’s given way to deep depression. Maybe I just need to know myself better? Thank you so much

Such a beautiful visual video with your words, scenery and music. This makes me think of Morgan Harper Nichols song Tell the story of the mountains you've climbed with the lyrics "you're not alone out here with light as your guide" that she has on her KZread channel. A dance party in the kitchen is great! I been watching videos like by Diane in Denmark on some of her Friday videos called weekly planning self-care gives four self-care assignments/ideas that one can choose from for the week and in those videos she mentioned ideas like spending time in nature, creativity, new recipes, listening to music. Also Mariane Cresp mentioned in her boost your mood video about creativity and music. I also watched Kennedy from the channel Cozy K, cozy hobbies to try videos. I also like walking as a form of self-care. Jen from the channel Silver and Solo has videos on this topic.
