PAIN Behind my SMILE | Van Life is not a Dream

I'm SAD & Nothing makes me Happy, Not Even Beach Camping in my Van...
Life is not as good as it might seems... I am going through a lot and not even the best campsite on the beach makes me happy anymore. I am grateful for all the things that I can experience like riding my new @kbobikes , all the beautiful flowers and birds, spending time with friends by the campfire, watching movies outside with my projector but I am always missing something important. I don't really know how long I will feel like this but the truth is that behind my smile there is a lot of pain...

    Life is not what you think, just because you see someone smiling doesn't mean that they are happy and doing okay. After getting back online, I am struggling because people seem to assume that I am doing great just because they watched a 10 minute video of me smiling for some seconds. People be thinking that after losing the two most important men of my life and having my life completely destroyed I just have the capacity of being a super human, entertaining you for free every week. Some people is assuming that I should travel, and keep being my old self before all the misfortune events happened to me, but how are you guys even expecting such thing from me if you truly followed my story? The internet is not real life and I needed to bring a reality check here on KZread. It's great to live in a van sometimes, it's great to be an immigrant sometimes, it's great to be alone sometimes, it's great to post videos on KZread but the truth guys is that at the same time things are also awful and painful. Be patience and kind with people on the internet, truly listen to them and stop pushing boundaries. Remember that these are free videos for you to get entertained and a way to connect with others, youtubers are real people just like you, and it's time that someone spoke about this... I couldn't keep this inside of me for any longer. I share more details about everything that's happening and happened in my life on my Patreon www.patreon.com/LidiaRico I shared past events that for a lot of people that followed this channel since the beginning are shocking to hear and I want to keep them private, so if you subscribe to my Patreon please respect the privacy of that platform and be kind. Thanks for being here reading this ❤🙏

    Important that you just keep around people and give things time Time is the only healer. It really took my daughter several years before she can just think about her boyfriend that killed himself. Now she can at least talk about it as a thing of the past. Being around people helps pass that time and you experience other great things that outweigh the tragedy

    Lidia, as an outsider watching your videos, it doesn't take a PHD in psychology to know that Phillip loved you with all his heart and soul. YOU are the reason he was around as long as he was. I don't know if it will help but, think of it this way... Phillip isn't missing a beautiful sunset with you, he IS the sunset FOR you. You and Phillip are an example for ALL of us to reach out to those we care about. Let them know how much they mean to you. Only GOD knows what will happen on life's journey. As always, BIG HUGS and much ❤from Tennessee!

    Bobs, Unfortunately loved one, Men who take their own life do not receive grief or have any explanation /acceptance from individuals (other mankind) who have to constantly put on their pants just like him & get out in this world to fight day to day, making something of ourselves. Make sure you get into your bible because God knows yah soul and taking your own life is not the fruitfulness he has for us.

    Sometimes, and i mean sometimes. It's often not meant for us to understand why people do what they do, but in time, you'll begin to accept it and begin to live again. There are no right words to what and how you're feeling, but often, that's what we have to do. I love campfires, it's good at keeping the bugs away lol.

I mean, you can find happiness in your life for sure but it's like a broken bone that never fully repaired. Only time and acceptation can bring your some reconfort. Even now, sometimes, sadness and tears comes like a river and i can't control it, you have to accept it and walk on. I can only imagine what you are going through and I wish you the best in your life 🙏 (for clarification, i speak for myself, i'm not telling what you have to do)

What I think it's completely normal. Sunshines, sunsets, flowers, everything is bittersweet and it will be for a while and what I would like is people to understand this process and don't recommend me to jump right across the phase of grief and depression after losing love ones to suicide. The past is affecting my present, it's not wise to act like it didn't happened. Thanks for the support tho I see the good intentions behind your words

You will find peace, love understanding of all of this. You do the work everyday. With every sunrise and every sunset you are one step closer.....

    I admire you so much! Thank you for speaking your truth and showing us your full self. You have so much courage and strength. I see you handling this with grace and beauty. As you said, this pain will continue and will be with you the rest of your life, because that is how love works, but i can assure you that the pain will become less overwhelming with time. The tsunamis will become waves, which will then become ripples. Keep doing what you're doing. Sending you all my love and support 💝

You’re pretty talented biking and blogging at the same time!😊 I’d wreck for sure! Campfires are amazing! Thank you so much for your videos Lidia!❤

    Shit.... I met you and Philip at that Expo West thing in Flagstaff a couple years ago - Phil and I spoke on the phone a bit after that, talking about the van build stuff and were planning for me to roll down to see you guys. Then the break-up happened, which was obviously hard on the both of you, so I pulled back figuring he wasn't in the right head space - I reached out but didn't hear back, then ran into you in Venice but you weren't in a great mood (understandable as I just walked up to you and you likely didn't remember me) - I did not know Phil left the planet, such a bummer.... I remember the story of how you guys met and how he went to Spain to woo you, that was such a romantic story, This entire thing is so tragic - I'm hoping the best for you....

    I can understand your pain. I had a very special person in my life who I had the deepest spiritual connection with. Our life paths tooks us in different directions, found out about 6 months ago he passed from OD. I am so upset, I guess I'm realizing I never grieved the separation. I find comfort in knowing that now i can speak to him anytime. I ask him to visit in my dreams and he does. This gives me peace. Talk to Philip, he can hear you and im sure his spirit is with you always, protecting you.

    It's nice to see you smile even though your in pain and I feel your pain I've lost two friends that I've known just about my whole life and my cousin in the last four months and my mom three years ago. It is hard to deal with and it really fuckin sucks but it have to lean on friends and family for comfort you have lots of fans who care and want the best for you. If you ever want someone to talk to reach out to me or any of your fans people do care and want you be happy again. Stay safe and God bless ❤💯😀

    I feel the same whenever I see a sun set or just anything beautiful or have a wholesome experience, see beautiful mountains or flowers. I always think "how could they not want to keep seeing this?" And it's bittersweet because I am so happy to be alive and so sad they're not. Stay strong, love from Sevilla.

    Lidia I understand exactly how you feel about being sad and hurting even when you are in good times on a beautiful day because sometimes I also reflect on losing my mom and some of my family and friends and I often cry because the pain of never seeing them again really hurts and the reality is that it will always be pain from losing our love ones as we navigate through our lives but that pain keeps me fighting for myself and others who truly love me and honestly Lidia even though I don't personally know you I can hear the pain in your voice and I can see the pain in your eyes but the most important thing is that I can feel the love in your heart and that what truly makes you special and gifted and my advice to you is to always be you and do things at your own pace and you will always shine brighter than the brightess star 🌟 in the sky Thank you Lidia for showing me and others that don't personally know you how to talk about private things in our lives that effect us all instead of holding all that pain inside .. It is good to let the rivers flow instead of waiting for the dam to break .... 😊

    Hola, prima! We can not control and sometimes understand the actions, thoughts, and feelings of others. But, what we can do is to be the best person that we can be, honor, and appreciate those who we care about that are no longer with us, and those who are still with us. We can, still celebrate and appreciate the positive impact they have in our lives. Stay safe, stay healthy, and stay happy! Everything else is manageable! Pops
