    Christy seems like she’s the type of person who enjoys the quiet surroundings for her to have a peaceful mind and soul. I can tell she has lot to say in terms of what she genuinely enjoys doing in her personal life. I wish her all the best in her writing career. God bless her.

    I've been watching your videos for a couple of years. I was watching a Carolyn Marie Reads vid the other day and in that vid, she mentions you, and describes your videos as "cinematic masterpieces" and spoke very highly of you as a person. It was lovely to see. It's good to see people in the community building each other up.

    I was 11 years old when I saw Haley's comet with my dad. I thought it was cool for a few seconds and then quickly moved on to whatever other things go thru the mind of 11-year-old boys. I'll never be able to have that experience again with my dad since he'll be long gone by the time Haley's comet returns. But I hope I'm still around to share that meh/incredible moment with my boys and maybe even a grandkid or two when the time comes. I love your vlogs, Christy. Thank your for taking the time to make them.

    I am struggling with my book these days. I'm not motivated and I doubt every single word I type. You've been my motivation for so long so I came to your channel as always and I scrolled to find a video I've missed and I found this. Christy... would you believe if I say I cried? I don't know what about this video was so emotional for me but I'm thankful for knowing you and watching your videos. Thank you for sharing your journey and thank you for being a light for me. I always wish you the best. 🤍

    For the past 6 months I've been coming back and forth with ideas, possible plots for stories but none of them seemed good enough to start writing. Lately I've been having a hard time committing myself to writing, it is something I've always loved but sometimes it is hard to actually sit down and write (idk if this makes sense). This week I've been brainstorming some new ideas and i think i finally feel ready to start writing again, and a huge part of that motivation came from your videos, so i want to say a big thank you for being here and sharing part of your journey with us 🦋❤
