I think it captures the futility of a life lived without much introspection. Nia is not very insightful when it comes to her own feelings. Her emotions are mainly tepid. She didn’t particularly care for this or that. Her regrets don’t seem to affect her behavior significantly. Her experience of love seems fleeting, mystical and almost random. In fact, most of the events in her life seem to be accidental. Pointing this out is good, I suppose, as a warning to others; but the film doesn’t provide any guidance or even any suggestions as to how make a better path. And there are plenty of philosophers who have offered their guidance and suggestions. That’s really where life’s challenge lies: finding meaning, purpose. A Reason. So, by not exploring any alternatives, the film ends up expressing only hopelessness and despair. Which is the easy way out.

I loved that. I've had struggles in various aspects of life but the hardest to beat has been living up to other's expectations. I used to be a yes man, always overextended, always stressed out. When I no longer had the resources (financially, physically, time-wise, etc) I realized I'm unable to say yes to anyone.
----> I once made 150k/yr and lived big. Within two years of losing my job and health I was homeless with nothing. I'll live the rest of my life on a fraction of that, but with a focus on my eternal life which I strongly believe in. No idea what I'll be thought of in the future. Little care what I'm thought of now. I feel good about me because of my own focus on me. I help when I can whoever is in need. I'll do my best to connect to people the rest of the way. But I'm not overextending myself ever again. It almost killed me.
---->When I talk about things that I've lost that are important rarely does anyone fully understand. Besides all the material wealth I lost in a divorce and custody battle (misnomer, it was about preventing a relocation) and my stuff in a storage facility auction...I lost at first my family. I had a wife with 3 kids (1 ours, 2 hers but that I raised for 10 yrs) and 2 dogs, family friends, a church community, and extended family happy with me that I was married and doing well. It was all gone in a weekend. The only thing I fought for and was able to keep was my visitation with my biological son. For 8 years I burned the candle at both ends and in the middle to never miss anything in his life. I traveled 160 miles round trip up to 8 times a week to provide a life for him. I gave him all the fatherly attention I could, knowing life is precious and unpredictable. My dad died when my mother was pregnant with me. So I made sure to care deeply about being a father. About 3 years ago when he was 12 was when I lost my job, got sick, and lost all I owned. I slowly began getting erased from my son's life. Without any resources (money to hire a lawyer) to affect the situation I hit the bottom... homeless.
----->This situation happened twice in the next 6 months until I got into permanent public housing and on foodstamps. I'm climbing out of the situation. I've been approved for SSDI. Not going to list the ailments I have but life is morbid. I'll be ok surviving from here on....
----->But these are the things I lost that can never be. I lost being a father to 2 kids I loved as my own, despite each one having different fathers. I lost family companionship and hardy laughs. I lost taking my 3 kids to see my parents who loved all 3 the same despite each having a different father. I lost the last 3 years with my biological son who I was very close to. I spared him nothing from experiences, to affection, to spoiling, to teaching, to praying, to playing sports, to sharing love of music, etc... it's all gone. No chance to see what's going on in his life. No chance to teach him. No chance to reminisce and laugh with him over memories we share together. No hugs. No I love yous. There's nothing to look forward to each day. Literally nothing. And I'm sick. Sick enough that multiple doctors agree, as does the government. Nobody cared to believe me when I knew my health was failing. All they had were expectations and demands...and they (she) took me to court over this because "they" refused to believe my kidneys were failing and the arthritis in my ankles reached full blown pain. So live each day for a life that I don't want and one I don't have.
----->I have no life. I doubt anyone in this world will have remembered anyway. So this video kinda resounds with me.

Interesting philosophical look at some live their lives, but it misses the point that many live their lives making others happy, because either they want or realize by making others happy sometimes it helps improve our own lives by giving us allies in tough times. It seems like a video made by a college student who hasn't yet realized the complexity of life and that just living for yourself is a gamble which may pay off handsomely or leave you in the gutter alone. Life is about the gambles we make and leave alone, never knowing how it would have worked out.
