Random Motivation by a Stranger

I just saw this awesome Facebook reel video, guys! So there's this dude who randomly invites strangers for a late-night hiking adventure. At first, the two strangers were a little unsure, but they eventually went along with it. They drove and walked for what seemed like forever until they reached this vast, pitch-black place. And let me tell you, the bright lights scenery of the whole city took their breath away! They sat there, taking it all in, and had a moment of reflection. One of them spoke up and thanked the vlogger because it had been ages since they experienced something like this, and it really had an impact on their mindset. But the most powerful moment came when the vlogger said something that hit me right in the feels: "When you're on the brink of death, your life flashes before your eyes, so make sure it's a show worth watching." Deep stuff, right? Imagine getting invited by a stranger, being brought to a far place, offered a great view, given the chance to reflect, and then being told something motivating related to death. This sends me the chills in both ways actually. ??

Wow, that sounds like an incredible and unforgettable experience! Sometimes stepping out of our comfort zones and embracing spontaneity can lead to the most profound moments. The vlogger's message is so powerful - it reminds us to live our lives fully and create a show worth watching when we look back. Life is all about those meaningful connections and adventures. Thanks for sharing this inspiring story!

It sounds a bit scary coming from a stranger. In my country that would be a big NO NO from me. Do you know what they say? Stranger Danger!!!

@iammuy That's not something you can do in my country.

@BabeSays Why? Maybe, they would have no chance to call someone if the vlogger really has a bad intention.

From the video, they called someone on the phone first before joining the stranger in case something would happen.

That certainly is a profound thing to think about.

Yes! But, I think, the vlogger must have also considered the timing of when he will say that. HAHA

That could have ended badly, but great that it was actually a nice trip. I probably would not, since I am a girl and not good at self defense... but that quote is really meaningful.

Thankfully, they're lucky. They deserved it. ..We all deserve this kind of moment actually.

@iammuy so you don't listen to motivation

@thebos I understood what he meant to say. I just tend to look at different angles, that's why I sensed something else that I was not supposed to.

That's right! But, if you would think about the timing, you'll feel something else aside from the motivation. HAHA
