"There were many days I didn’t think I’d make it and I simply wanted to give up and disappear," he confessed. "Instagram can paint a pretty picture of what we think someone’s life is, but there’s always more to the story. Behind all the polished posts and achievements, are sleepless nights, struggles, and tears."
Moe continued by referencing the tragic wildfires that rampaged through the City of Angels back in January, noting: "I think it’s important to discuss, especially during this time in our industry when so many are still suffering in the wake of the strike and the devastating fires that ravaged our beloved town. We need compassion and community more than ever before."
While he's "still processing what happened" when his Jeep burned to a crisp on Monday, April 28, Moe said he "couldn’t help but feel grateful."
"Life is so fragile, and to walk away from this incident without injury is truly a miracle," he realized. "My entire outlook on life has changed for the better and in a strange way, I feel reborn."
Barry Lee Moe felt 'grateful' to leave the incident without injury.
"I was given the gift of perspective Monday, and I will never take the little things in life for granted ever again. Life is happening right now. Embrace the present, live your life with purpose, and LOVE freely & fully, because we only get one chance to do this," he concluded before thanking Lopez and The Barfield hotel in Amarillo for stepping up when he was left stranded on the highway.
In the comments section of the emotional upload, several celebrities told Moe he was in their thoughts and prayers.
"I'm so sorry Barry I’m so glad you’re okay," said Addison Rae, while Juliette Lewis expressed: "I’m so sorry to hear this, but God bless. 🙌❤️."

We wish you continued healing, peace, and a journey ahead filled with light. 💙."
