In her latest TikTok, she expressed how grateful she is to be able to live where she lives.
Captioning a video of her dancing outside, she wrote: “I was definitely born into the right time. I live alone in the woods with the cutest pets ever.”
As she danced around the babbling brook, she continued, “My healing looks like this and nobody’s trying to burn me at the stake.”
“And the best part is, if a relationship with someone isn’t working for me, I can end it.”
Viewers of the viral video flooded Mel’s comments section with their thoughts.
One said: “You are living the dream. What a gift.”
Mel replied, “I’m having the time of my life!”
Another commented: “Blessings of kindness on the journey. Healing joy of nature far away.”
