I just want to wish everyone a fantastic weekend. I'm still posted up in Montreal and have plans to shoot pool (billiards) with some friends here tomorrow night. I'd say I'm a decent pool player at best. Anyway...

I was thinking about this earlier today because I was feeling kinda down. Whenever I consciously make an effort to be kind to other people, I find it almost always helps me feel better. Perhaps it goes back to that saying "the more you give, the more you get". 

I find, more often than not, people really do just appreciate a sincere "thank you very much". Even a genuine smile and some eye contact after holding a door open for someone can go a long way. Or asking someone, a friend even, sincerely, "how are you?", works too. 

Doing these things gets us out of our own heads.  But more than that, what being nice, warm, sincere (or whatever you wanna call it) does, is it creates a positive reaction/response in others, which in turn makes us feel good :)

So, if you can... spread your light this weekend. We all need it!

- Max  

P.S. just filmed a Stray Kids' Hyunjin x Han reaction. Will try to drop that tomorrow! More videos coming next week. I appreciate you all :)

Oh my god !!!! honestly I have been thinking about the same thing a lot recently. I always try to do little things generally but the thinking about it sort of spiralled when my friend was visiting me. I am currently in the UK for a year and one of my friends from back home was visiting and we were just on the tube on the way back from a very tiring day. We got to a stop and two girls walked in very loud and giggly, they were having fun and asked us if we knew if the train would stop at a certain stop or not? I was sort of sure so I was like I think so but not sure? In that moment the announcement came on that the stop that they needed was the next stop so they were like oh great and sat down right next to me. I was doing my thing and my friend was reading while the girls were excitedly chatting with each other. As we got closer to the next stop I realised that they were too engrossed in their convo so when the train slowed down I just slightly nudged the one sitting next to me and told her it was their stop. They were like oh we for sure would have missed that and thanked me enthusiastically and went their way. As the train then went on my friend turned to me and asked me why I did that?? And I didn't really have an answer? It was just like I can see that they might miss a stop and I lose nothing by doing something like this and also, I would hope that if I were in a similar situation, someone would do that for me too. But these thoughts came later, in that moment I was like why not? And my friends response was literally a throw away, "cause it would be fun to see them freak out if and when they missed." And I was sort of just shocked. I don't personally find that funny so I was just like no it wouldn't be especially if I could have helped and didn't. And I could not let that thought go for a while. At that point I realised how much BTS had changed me. Before them, I would still have wanted to help them, but probably would not have made the effort to get over my anxiety to approach a random stranger and try to offer help be it in the smallest way possible.

Thank you Max for all your words and contents. I really learned a lot from your channel. I never thought I would join a patreon but you are the first and only one I did so because of your honest reaction. Thank you always!

Thanks Max. I’m sorry you’ve been feeling down. I want to let you know that your videos and livestreams are bright spots in my week. Getting a notification of a new post or video from you in my inbox always gives me a burst of serotonin. I appreciate you giving us so much time and going out of your way to check out the groups and videos we suggest. You really don’t have to be so gracious to all of us and it’s very much appreciated. Have fun shooting pool and I’ll see you on the next livestream!

I agree with Nicole. Every time I receive a notification, its always a thrilling feeling. The weekly lives are much anticipated and always makes my week better. But remember that even though we appreciate your kindness, remember that, eventually, if there is a day you are not feeling like it, we will understand. You are a human after all, and friends understands those things. Have fun, spend quality time with the people you love and de-stress. Tomorrow things will be better .

Hi Max, hope everything is brighter for you. It was great to read your note as I am still finding my way into this small group. I used to not comment in YT yet you were the 1st Patreon channel I joined because if felt like you were open to everyone's feedback but also not easily swayed if you feel you don't agree; you have an open mindset and is non judgmental so I appreciate that. Sometimes it is hard to write down your thoughts in the chat or comment box vs talking or having conversation with an individual or group but I feel you make everyone feel welcome. The small gestures of kindness goes a long way. We all may have different things going on in our lives and this group I feel is an outlet for sharing what we love and care about. When I get your notifications it's like a respite to the hectic world around me. It's an escape or a shot of little happiness. Thank you for building this community of yours. 💜

I'm often at the doctor's and having blood work done etc... Even getting medication etc. This is not a bid for sympathy btw, I have a loving husband and 2 grown children. They are my support and I truly feel lucky to have that foundation with them. So I do not need sympathy. What I wanted to convey was how often I have had a nice nurse that made it easy for me to say thank you to them when I was younger that I started making it habit. I noticed how a nurse who might seem a bit closed off would brighten up if I simply asked if they were having a good day. I would try at times to say thank you to the nurse who was about to give me a shot. Of course I would use humor but it kept things positive for me as well. I also do the same when someone is drawing blood or filling medication. Thank them for their time. We also do random bigger acts of kindness. I personally call them a selfish thing though because honestly they just make me happy to do them. I hope you had a good time playing pool. I used to be very good myself. 😊

Have a great weekend! I hope spending time with friends will make you feel better! I appreciate your content and ideas a lot, even tho I don't usually say it. Maybe if you think of all the people that feel better in some moments because of the time and effort you put in here will help your mood 🙃Thank you! 🤗

Thanks for sharing Disha! I love that you did that. You should. If you know you can help, then you should. That's a leadership quality in my opinion. Good for you :)

I Feel you angelkat, life in hospitals is not easy. And when people are kind, both ways. It makes it a litter easier.

My weekend is going well so far!! I went to LA to see TXT who are having a concert tonight, so I'm doing some exploring. I think the person who has influenced me a lot in terms of kindness and generosity is my mother. Growing my family was poor and we struggled a lot with money, but every time my mom came across people in need she always stopped for them to give them all the cash she could. My dad was the kind of person who was like, "what if they use that money, not for a meal, but for drugs or smoking" and my mom always used to say that what they do with the money she gives them is none of her business and that it's in their hands, but the off chance that her help could give them some relief along with all the "thank you" and "may god bless you" she receives in return is what makes her feel happy. I think because of her I am a more generous person and doing little things like helping people pick up the things they dropped or opening the door, have become a natural part of my life.

Your mom sounds like a special woman. Sounds like she really rubbed off on you :) Thanks for sharing that with us.
