Several years ago, my daughter was diagnosed with cancer. My wife was pregnant and was taking care of our first born. It was my duty and honor to stay with her at the hospital. My world became that room, and her floor. It was enough. There were stretches of 5 or 6 weeks when I never left the hospital floor. It was as if time stopped. Nothing mattered except me and her. I would sometimes walk her to the giant window that looked out over the city, just to remind myself that time was passing. She recovered and is now doing well. Years have passed. We have had wonderful memories since then, but some of my fondest memories are of that time and that place.

So this will probably get lost among the million voices, but uh, a long time ago you wrote a song that I would sing to myself when I felt very small and very scared. I sang it many times when I was trapped in an abusive relationship. I sang it to myself when I was struggling to survive. I sang it to myself when I was giving birth, and to myself and my baby in those very dark days of post natal depression. I still struggle with my mind. I don't like myself very much. A lot of the time, the world feels far too big, and I want to be small, but not alone. I have this feeling of tar in my chest, and I can't breathe. But then you say Hey You're okay You'll be fine Just breathe

My husband said that right after his ex left him, his dog got hit by a car and he had to have him put down. He felt kind of abandoned, too, by friends who had chosen sides in the divorce (even though it wasn't really acrimonious) and suddenly started to shun him. He ended up going to a therapist a few times. Then one day the therapist stopped and asked him, "Tim, why are you here? What is it that you're wanting to get out of these sessions?" My husband was surprised. He replied that he felt depressed and thought you're supposed to see someone when you're depressed. The therapist replied, "You're not depressed, you're sad and grieving. Grief is normal after what all has happened to you. I would be worried if you DIDN'T feel sad right now. If you want to keep coming here to talk, that's fine, but there's nothing I can do to help you other than listen because the grief just has to run its course. If you start to feel worse, start to think about harming yourself, or you don't feel better after about 6 months, then that can be a sign of something more serious, and then we would need to talk." My husband thanked him for being honest about everything and left. After about 6 months, he felt some better, so he never went back. A year or less after that, he met me and we were together for nearly 16 very happy years before he passed away. So I know, too, what it's like to struggle to put one foot in front of the other and grind out another day. But the grief does get better after a while. It's not a straight line--some days are better than others--but the overall pattern should be towards gradual improvement. And hopefully, one day, when you're very happy with someone else, you can run into your ex, as my husband did, and look at him/her and realize you feel nothing at all--no hurt, no regret, no jealousy. S/he is just someone you used to know, like a friend you grew apart from, because your life is so great with your new person that you are glad you're not with your ex. I wish you that kind of happiness, that will erase the pain of now.

I worry for my husband. I have stage 4 breast cancer. I feel fine right now, but this isn't going away. It's not a "get well soon" type of thing. The day I had to tell him was the hardest day of my life, I think. I worry he will be lonely. Isolated. I worry he won't reach out to others to find any comfort. He's stubborn like that. I never wanted to be the cause of anyone's grief; I never wanted to hurt anybody. The idea of causing him that kind of pain to anyone I love fills me with such sadness I can't even describe. I want him to continue, to laugh, to love, to BE! I absolutely HATE the idea of causing any kind of change in him. He's so beautifully perfect. I can't bear the thought. *Please don't let this grief conquer you!!!* That's NOT what they'd have wanted to leave with you. They'd want you to remember happiness, and to laugh again! They'd want you to maybe adopt a new puppy and to giggle out loud at how cute it is when it can't find it's breaks fast enough and goes slipping across the floor. They'd want you to BREAK THIS GRIEF for them. They'd want you to LIVE because they can't live anymore, so you can still do that for them. Breathe, eat, have fun, sleep well, and dream big!!! Please keep dreaming of more! And let yourself ENJOY that. I know it's what they'd want for you because it's the same thing I want for my loved ones. *KEEP LIVING!*

I mean, even most of us able-bodied people end up dying without ever having made much of an impact on the world beyond our immediate friends and family and that’s okay. I dislike this idea in our culture that you have to have these huge world-changing ambitions and that you have to leave a permanent mark on the world, I feel like this puts a lot of unnecessary pressure on people and just makes those who don’t achieve such ridiculous goals feel like failures (which is extreme vast majority of people). There’s nothing shameful about downsizing your ambitions to just making a difference not in the whole world but just in *your* world of friends, family, and whoever you end up interacting with. You may not end up in the history books, but you will still be a fond memory for most people who knew you, even if all they just knew you as that one person they talked to that one time. It still sounds awful to have ended up disabled suddenly when you were previously able-bodied, I wish you well on adjusting to life and I hope it the rest of it goes much more smoothly for you.

For the first time in my 29 years, I've decided I want to live alone after my life is sorted out. I want to be with ME. I miss ME. I think it's not sad to miss being alone. By yourself, you're in great company. I needed this.

Somehow ZeFrank just understands how to speak to the inner child in all of us. The reassurance and empathy in his voice is like a warm snuggly blanket, or like a close friend standing by at your loneliest point. It's remarkably touching. Certainly, this feels more relatable than someone saying "take it easy on yourself", that's for sure, haha. But yeah, I think I really needed to hear this depth of emotional understanding. Feels good on the soul Top notch narration and film production!

I'm sitting in my safe space--my bedroom--at 2:30pm, suffering from agoraphobia, and as I watch this, suddenly I don't feel so bad about it. There are things to do in here to help me feel better and give me hope, and when I'm ready, there is a door to the rest of the house, and another door to the rest of the world. Thanks, zefrank, for making my day a little better.

You write so beautifully

Thank you for this. I didn't know I needed it. My life has been collapsing in on me over and over again for the past few years, no matter how hard I try to pull myself back up and recollect the pieces. I came from an incredibly abusive family, on both sides, so despite having really good grades I went to a mediocre local college to be able to escape them, and financial dependence on them. Im incredibly close to my mom, though. We survived hell together. My mom got breast cancer recurrence in 2019, my freshman year. 2020 happened. My aunt died September 2021. A close family friend died suddenly in December 2021. My grandfather died from cancer on my 21st birthday back in June. My house caught on fire twice that summer, which alone weren't that bad, but they then revealed 20 years of leaks all over the house. The front entrance needed to be almost entirely rebuilt. In August my mom had a severe stroke. For awhile we thought she was brain dead, I had even made the decision to dnr. My already broken world shattered in an instant. Miraculously, she woke up, but she is damaged. It's like she's a different person now. She's like a deceitful, belligerent toddler now that I need to care for constantly. She refuses to do the exercises that will make her better, and she is needy. I once walked a mile before school one day, just back and forth and back and forth between the bathroom, kitchen, and living room to attend to her constant questions and tasks. I know it's not her fault, but it's absolutely exhausting. Because of the aforementioned family problem, I'm mostly on my own. Again, despite straight A's I nearly had to drop out to care for her. Thankfully because of some of her old friends I was able to stay in school, but I don't know how long I can keep doing this. I'm 21, I'm just trying to starting life. I can't spend the next 20 years of my life being the single mom of a 140lb perpetual toddler. I never did anything to deserve this, or to invite any sort of this misfortune into my life. I initially had a therapist to help me through all this, but my psycho father went after her to the point of scaring her out of businesses . The world has been small for a long time. But that's okay. I will find my shape, and my capacity again. Something new will come.

I didn't want the world to be anything other than listlessness and loss. But I kept going forward. I wasn't ready- god, I wasn't ready. But we got new dogs, and I'm trying to do my best for them, and for those I lost. Because that's all you can do, when the world is small. You keep living for what you have, what you had, And what you loved. Thank you.

I knew as soon as a started watching that this was going to be a different kind of video from you, and it certainly is. It means a lot to me and so many others. Thank you. Really, thank you.

Ze, this is the type of video that I miss. This is the type of video that made me fall In love with your style. I used to listen to your thoughts and they would help when I needed it most. From your whitty little bits like "Perfectionism may look good in his shiny shoes, but he's a bit of an ass hole and nobody invites him to their pool parties" to the existential gems like"culturally irrelevant, yeah those are crushing words". You put my feelings onto a mirror for me to look back at. You spoke how only my feelings felt and my words could not speak. You were someone who provided a service, who provided self actualization when I didn't know where to find it, and it helped me come to terms with myself and embrace my thoughts and feelings as ME. I know this sounds a bit much but I've suffered mental health issues my whole life and you truly helped when I needed it and didn't know how to look for help. Please continue to make videos like this and the ones from your past, they were good therapy.

I lost my best friend of 20 years to suicide this year. My world has never felt smaller, but your tear inducing video and gentle voice is correct. Sometimes small is just enough to find yourself.

Was diagnosed with MS. Had a spinal tap two days ago and these last couple of months have been physically and mentally taxing. But I will admit my world suddenly shrank. My concerns were so spread out and now narrowed to this and making the most out of what little I can still do for now until I get proper treatment. I’m honestly enjoying my time stuck at home and my significant other’s company much more than ever before. My world has been shrunk to my home and yet I feel like there’s so much more I can do.

...this is one of the most beautiful clips I have come across in ages. Short. Poinant. Both a gut shot, and a warm embrace. And that voice. So full of understanding and comfort. There is a loss approaching my family in the next few years. I think... I think that I will need to remember these words. That it is okay for my world to shrink to almost nothing for a bit, so that I can relearn how to fill that small space, and then grow again. Changed, but still me. Thank you

Throughout half of my life I had the same goal of being a Paleontologist when I was older. But that all changed once I got I to middle school. Life became miserable, I felt depressed, I became anxious and doubtful of what I wanted to be with no clear vision as to what was ahead. Finally, near the end of high-school the world felt like this massive, intimidating place to be in and I felt lost. I felt small. Now, I'm on my second year of college and the world still feels intimidating, but I found new purpose in writing. Additionally, I plan on taking a gap year so I can make the world small again and "find my shape."

I find this so relatable, it really does feel like my world compressed itself into a tiny space during the last three years and I've been feeling guilty over not trying to expand it again, but maybe it's ok to give it its time, to take my time to properly heal.

Somehow this video always pops up in my feed just when I'm feeling at my lowest. As much as it hurts, it's a good, bittersweet ache, like growing pains of the mind and soul. You remind me to slow down, take a breath, and just appreciate what I have. Small is hard when the world keeps telling you that you ought to want more. I don't think I'll ever understand when or why simplicity and joy stopped being the goal. I've said this before, but thank you for this reminder. I seem to need it, every time.

I so needed this today. My world has shrunk so much since I became disabled.

Zefrank has the ability to make me sob like a baby with a few words. I had a really bad injury last spring and it left me bed ridden for a month and chronic pain I'm still dealing with. I remember that the event was so traumatic to me but the world kept going on without me. I felt so...isolated because of that. Like, how dare everything not stop because of what happened. Which is silly and narcissistic but in that moment and now dealing with the pain, it just separates you from everyone. You can be surrounded by people and, yet, when in pain every day, feel so alone. Thank you, Zefrank. This was beautiful.

I totally understand, I was wheelchair bound for months after a traumatic accident , isolated, and alone... and felt the same way, even when I had visitors. Even now, some days it feels like being on Mars and earth is just a speck in the distance... even though it, and everyone else, is just outside the door, going on as usual. It was far worse though after I lost my son years ago... I will always have a huge hole where my heart used to be. Pain is so isolating.

Almost every single comment here is from someone who is experiencing pain and loss. I can’t write to you all personally, but I can tell you that life does get easier. The pain eases. But you all need to know how important every single one of you are, and that everything you feel is ok. It’s ok to feel sad, bereft, lost, frightened…it’s part of how we process these sadnesses, and it helps us to recover. Taking a chance to downsize at this moment, to be comforted by the smaller, maybe inconsequential things, is what is needed. I hope you can feel these words I send you, because you matter me, I hurt to know of your suffering, and I send my very small, yet potent love to help you all on your journeys.

Thank you. I lost so much this year. My uncle, a few best friends exited my life, my favorite person in the world walked away, my car is messed up, my father's health has declined, and I just feel so lonely and broken sometimes- almost every single day. Thank you so much for this little piece of encouragement and comfort. Here's to good times... hopefully.

I'm standing here crying while making Coco wheats like she used to make me when I was a kid. Thank you ZeFrank for all the content you've made over the years and thank you for this message.

I lost my mother in 2018. Diabetes complications. Now I have it. My life is in more shambles than I had realized. I never knew how much I had not mattered to anyone until my mom passed away. But in the end, Zefrank was right: I do matter. If I didn't, I would've had less friends than I had realized. Even if my world is small and insignificant. I miss my mother. More or less terribly than you do, but even saying so is a moot point. We both love and miss our mothers. That's what matters. Just like you matter. I won't ask that we walk the same roads as we are strangers. But, I do implore you stay strong. I can't say I'm strong, because I feel I don't do it enough. Not until I meet the end, living the best I can. But you can be strong. Stronger than me. You got this. And I'm sure you have people who got your back.

Grief is the process we have to go through to break the bonding of human to human. The better and deeper the bond, the greater the pain in breaking the bond. Death is non negotiable in having to go through grief. I know a version of your pain for I have lost my parents and a sibling. Kubler-Ross wrote "On Death and Dying " . She covered loss. There are 5 stages; one does not go through these in any order and may repeat any stage any number of times. Anger Apathy Bargaining Depression Acceptance I found talking to others helped. I talked to many a nurse in the hospitals in which I practiced (I am a retired psychiatrist, MD, now but was active at the time of my mother's death). No one nurse heard a story over and over but I was able to talk about these things over and over. This helped me process. In breaking this bond, it is like building a box with putting the important things into it that were gained during the relationship. One day, I could smile at the memories and not cry. I appreciated what I had more than I could not be with her. Ther will always be a hole, "something missing" but the deep pain passes. Yes my small world is ok. As a psychiatrist, I learned if on puts off this process, then clinical depression can build. So I do hope you have supportive people. If you do need to see a psychologist to start the process please seek help. Remember when there is no bonding, there is no grief. Grief is a sign of losing an important (to you) relationship. Federal law requires me when I leave medical information to tell the reader this information does not make a doctor/patient relationship. Consider this a public service announcement.

Wow. This is the first piece of media to ever make a tear fall down my cheek. This hits very close to home as someone suffering with an incurable chronic illness. Thank you Zefrank, this is beautiful.

Thank you for this, Frank. My boyfriend of eight years died on April 4th, 2022 from blood loss. The radiation that killed his cancer eventually killed him too - it scarred his flesh so badly that the fibers of his skin, muscles and veins could no longer hold themselves together. He had asked me if I was willing to spend the rest of my life with him just three months before. I'd said "yes," of course. My world has been very small these past months, as I get used to life without him. We were each other's emotional support animal and source of strength. When you lose your one-and-always-person, and their support and strength are taken away, becoming small and still is all that's left. It's how you survive the unthinkable, while you rediscover your own strength. Thanks again, Frank. You helped me see what I'd been doing. And you showed me it was a good idea.

I'm glad I could come back to this, as I saw this when it was first released. I needed this. And perhaps so does she. I'm glad that this could comfort me, and everyone else struggling with something right now.

Zefrank, I usually watch your videos for the reasons I’m sure everyone does. The humor, the knowledge, the cute (or disturbing) footage of animals. Today, I needed this video. This year, I needed this video. I’ve been struggling, today more than usual, and my world has been so small for so long. And it’s hard for me to remember that even throughout all of this, I am enough. Thank you.

These past couple years have brought people to the breaking point... I think the words you speak, and how you speak them... They are *exactly* what so many people need at this moment. Excelsior Frank.

My dad who went through a stroke adored the videos ye all made, wonderful comedy, amazingly well thought out and easy to understand explanations made my father smile, it reminded him of Steve Irwin, Uncle Roger, and Bob ross. Now each video ye upload comforts me in a way only my dad could, ye have a similar voice to him the warmth and timber of how ya speaks. Makes me feel right at home with him beside me watching paintings of Bob, Gary Jenkins, and Teddy's Operation. I thank ye for the warmth mate.

No matter where you are, or what you do, or what you been through, we all know sometimes we all need to hear this (or we need to share it with a loved one who also needs to hear it) Thank you so much for this little ray of hope! I wish you all the very best in 2023!

Damnit. If anyone needs me, I'll be sitting in the corner, rocking and crying. Ze .. this was an utterly beautiful, deeply needed Christmas present. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
