Probably Jon's "gentle soul" and his being so gifted, how he developed his talent, are related. - No reason to step on toes when you're going your own way.

I am so glad that the world has found Jon. He is the most musically gifted person the world has seen in a very long time. On top of that, he is truly a beautiful soul. Just a sweet person. I wish him and his family well.

I don't know what it is about Jon Batiste, but whenever I see him on this show it makes me smile.

John is one of the most beautiful souls on the planet. The universe is a better place with him in in. And as a Cajun, it makes me that more prouder.

When the universe was saying NO, he held onto that desire and MADE it a YES ✌️❤️🙏

Sending Jon and his wife so much love! We who have watched the show for a long time are so happy for his success and wish them both love and good health.

I will never try to discredit the fact that you feel alone - without friends or family there besides you - but coming from someone who has a very stormy brain quite often, I hope you know you're not TRULY alone. Befriend a nurse. Befriend a cashier at the local convenience store that you maybe stop into for a (near) daily Diet Dr. Pepper (not like I'm pulling from personal experience on that one.. 🫣). And perhaps easiest of all because you can do it from bed, your couch, or anywhere, reach out to someone random online. It often seems like people suck, but even my cynical-curmudgeonly self can admit there's ways to find good people. You just have to ask. 💜💜 Same to you, @doricetimko5403. Best wishes for you both and your improved health, friends.

Their genuine friendship is heart warming!❤️
