What do you watch on YouTube when you are bored?

1. Old black and white Hindi and Telugu movies as I don’t get them on netflix or Amazon prime. I love movies made in the period mid 50s to mid 70s but not older ones made in 40s.

How do you feel when you watch your kids sleeping?

My child was born to me late in life. I was forty years old when he came to me. His sister was born almost exactly a year before and she died. Sorry. I know that’s a harsh thing to share. I had this boy who, oh my goodness just texted me to ask for money because we gave him a trip to California for his college graduation:-). I know that he is lucky, I hope that he knows, too.I held my son in my arms when he was an infant and I felt something so huge, something so complete. I would pull him towards me (we sat in the bed and I leaned against a pillow with my knees up) and I said to him: you are my strong boy, you are my sweet boy. I looked into his face and watched his beautiful eyes and when they closed, I clutched him to my chest.My son was a terrible sleeper. I am too. I think he may be better now. But when he was a baby he woke up so often, I would look at his small face and think oh god, we need to sleep. I was terrified by my lack of sleep. So I held him against me.When he was about ten, he started to fall asleep. My husband and I would sit next to him and not touch him. We would just be there with him. He looked up at me one night and said, Mama, I can go to sleep by myself now. I was so sad. And then my friend said to me, Lisa, it’s not about you, it’s about him. Bingo. The light bulb went off above my head. It’s not about you, Mama, it’s about your child.So after that, I would creep in and watch him sleeping. I knew that it was a different kind of time for both of us.I would watch him and see his sweet face against his pillow. I would watch his chest rise and fall. I would watch the way his eyelids skittered through dreams, how they would still, eventually.I needed to let him go to sleep alone, to let him start to fly away. I needed to let him lie there beside me. Of course I will always be here, a soft place to fall when he needs me. But, it is time for my boy to fly. I will be here if he needs a place to fall. I so hope he can fly away and still love me.

Do you like to wear watch?

Yes.I don’t think watches are needed to tell the time anymore (we have our phones), but a watch has emotional and psychological value, at least for me.One… they can be sentimental, just like pieces of jewelry. Most of my watches have been gifted to me by loved ones.Two… wearing a watch makes me feel more confident. I’m a person whose time is important. Wearing a watch makes me feel in control, focused and like every minute counts.Three… analog watches make me feel aware of the present, and they make me value time and life itself. The act of looking down at your wrist and looking at the dials of an analog watch (I don’t like digital watches) is satisfying, compared to taking out your phone, seeing 20 notification pop ups, and the time. Looking at my phone has the opposite affect— I notice the notifications and distractions before the time. I don’t feel like the time is real, and will often open my phone and do something unproductive, even though I can see the time ticking away. It just doesn’t feel real. An analog watch is not a multi-tasking device. It’s not a computer, phone, TV, personal planner, calculator, gaming device, etc all in one like a smartphone. It has 1 purpose and 1 purpose only… to tell you the time.Four… watches are beautiful, especially mechanical skeleton watches. They have no batteries, they aren’t solar powered, you don’t charge them. The engineering, design and craftsmanship that goes into luxury mechanical watches fascinates me. As people have technologically advanced, we have forgotten a lot of old world craftsmanship, like how to build wooden ships that can sail through the Arctic. We may have more technologically advanced ships (and watches) now, that don’t require so much craft and labor, but I still value craft, technique, art and legacy. I love the look of the tiny dials, gears, spokes, wheels and rings, the complex tiny little mechanisms, the steampunk-esque look that looks both otherworldly, alien and very industrial and man-made at the same time. The fact that mechanical watches can be accurate within 1–2 seconds a day, fascinates me, and I find it magical. A testament to humanity’s brilliance and desire for transcendence.

I don't feel like watching anime anymore.Why is it happening?

I don’t think there is any simple answer for this.The sad answer is that maybe you have just grown out of it. I used to watch power rangers but if I am to watch one now, I would feel like I am being punished for something I did. There is nothing wrong with it. If you are feeling sad about it that means you still like Anime. Just that your standards have improved. Pick a good one, depending on your present mood not the ratings or recommendations. I suggest something simple, slice of life type, happy ones.The more hopeful answer is that you have exhausted yourself off anime. That is, you have been watching it too much. Give it a break and do something else. After a while, watch something happy like Usagi Drop or some other simple anime. Nothing extravagant. That could probably rejuvenate your interest. Maybe watch Kimi no Na wa or some simple movie.Since no information has been given of what exactly has transpired, I cannot be of any more help. Maybe Gigguk’s video below can helpAlways sad to see people fall out of love of their hobbies. Hope it is just a phase.

How do you feel when you watch a video of yourself talking to the camera?

At first it’s a bit weird, but you get used to it.What you see as my current Quora picture is what I saw the first time I turned on that camera to record a video. To most people, I probably just look like any random person with some pretty red cheeks. I’m sure there are some people who would be glad to look like me. But the second I turned on that camera, all of my insecurities came flooding to me.Agh, people aren’t going to like me! I look weird. My cheeks are too red and that’s not normal for most YouTubers. My haircut looks funny. Are my eyebrows too big? Why can’t I just look like some of the other YouTubers?!?It took awhile for me to get over that and make my first video with facecam, but now I would never go back! On that first video, I got no comments about how funny I looked or that I was ugly. Nobody cared what I looked like. They were just glad to have a face to go with the voice.I will say that a few people did ask about the cheeks, but not in any sort of offensive way. It was a great conversation starter in the comments!So here’s my advice for you:Imagine the camera is a portal to your viewers. All of the people out there who want to see you. They want to hear what you have to say. They don’t care what you look like, they just want to see what you do!There may be a few people who do comment about appearance. There may be some who try to shed hate. Don’t worry, this happens to everyone. There is nothing you can do except ignore them and get on with your day.Just do you!…P.S. Don’t look at the software. Look at the camera.
