For me, looks like you're putting 100% of your happiness in your future self and forgetting to enjoy what you have today

Don’t worry about, you’re work has gotten me into the genre and without, I would’ve never heard some of my favorite songs. No matter what you do, you can know that you’ve at least changed my life (in whatever small way music may be).

I remember watching a random video once where Jim Carrey was giving a speech or something, and what he said stuck with me: "The effect you have on others is the most valuable currency there is because everything you gain in life will rot & fall apart, all that would be left of you is what was in your heart." You impacted many including myself with your beautiful work, thank you so much

Please take your time, don't rush. I have so much respect for you and your work ethic surrounding editing, and it's clear you strive for perfection and have a high standard for what you want to create. Please don't get caught into a cycle of self-doubt and frustration though in comparing yourself to others. We all will love whatever you put forth, and will support you. Keep it up and don't push yourself too hard, your mental well-being comes first!! <3

From the videos I've found of your work, you do an excellent job with your editing and music selections. I found your channel. I love listening and/or watching them. Sometimes giving them my full attention while other times it's just to enjoy it while I work or do other things. Thanks for all your hard work. Your health as a whole should take priority vs your work. Your work will be around while there's only one of you who can do what you do best. Be safe. You've got support from the people who've subbed and many others who have watched what you make on Youtube. Do the best you can. :)

I've never expect anything from you other than being an Awesome Person and just reading what you wrote overwhelmed me. I just want to let you know that you should take on everything easy before breaking yourself. Do it for you and noone, else make your own decisions and have a good one. And everyone else should also have a good one.

Rant warning I know that no matter what kind of work you produce, as long as you put your heart into it, I’ll be able to fully enjoy it, Your work over the years has covered different genres of music, different creators and anime’s, different products altogether. I’ve loved every bit of it. Thank you for putting your heart and soul into every piece of work you put out. That’s what gives it so much value to me, and not simply the final result. Sorry for ranting, I just wanted to say that I love your work for what it is, and not for how it compares to other creators’ work. P.S. I love your pre Just Friends work, and considering what I’ve seen of your edits and mixes, I don’t think you’re washed up at all. In fact, you put a lot more effort than I’ve seen put into edits and mixes on almost any other channel. Love ya Jo, and remember, it’s because it’s you making them that your edits are so good. 💙

Long-winded message pertaining to the final edit:
It’s been nine months since my decision to make a final edit. I’m not even remotely close to being finished. It’s a burden that I want to get rid of, but I also want it to be my best work by far that represents how much I appreciate both the experience of having made these edits and the people that have enjoyed watching them. I’m trying to incorporate a staggeringly unprecedented number of visual sources, and the nature of the song I’m using entails (for me, anyway) the most meticulous editing by far. I’ve grown so frustrated with my lack of progress (I’ll refrain from going into boring editing specifics) that I’ve become prone to going for weeks without even opening the project, and as the months have gone by, I’ve begun to think that I’ve lost my touch, that the finished edit will fail to surpass my past work or even match it, that people won’t even like the song because of how relatively different it is. There are way more people that watch my videos now compared to pre-“just friends”, and I’m really scared that I will fail to meet their expectations.
For the past few months now, I’ve been avoiding it entirely. But nine months later I still mean it when I say that I want y’all to see this edit someday, that I don’t want this channel to inevitably end without completing it. I probably am washed up, and I’ve seen some edits by others that are unlike anything I could ever hope to make. I still want to do my best, though. I owe it to y’all. The thing is, I have discovered a track recently that I would really love to make an edit for. I don't think it's as fitting for a final edit as this other track though, so I'm hoping that after making this one, I'll be able to come back to the final edit with renewed inspiration. I don't know how long this new edit is going to take to finish, but I have a good feeling I'll be able to make much better progress. Well, I guess that's about it. Hope that all kinda made sense. Thank you for your patience. Peace. Much love.
