welcome to Setting It Straight with Ms. Gray and her

11
00:01:22.989 --> 00:01:27.069
fabulous co-host, Tonight, I want to do a moment of

12
00:01:27.129 --> 00:01:32.390
silence because we just because of this past weekend and

13
00:01:32.409 --> 00:01:35.379
9-11 and I watched a few of those documentaries. We'll

14
00:01:35.420 --> 00:01:37.500
talk briefly about it, but let's just have a moment

15
00:01:37.560 --> 00:01:41.959
of silence, please, for the families, the survivors, even those

16
00:01:42.159 --> 00:01:46.159
whose family members passed away after the event because of

17
00:01:46.200 --> 00:01:49.000
the smoke inhalation and things like that. And they developed

18
00:01:49.060 --> 00:01:52.159
all kinds of disorders and diseases. And so let's just

19
00:01:52.200 --> 00:02:03.980
have a moment of silence, if you don't mind. I

20
00:02:04.019 --> 00:02:07.290
know that many people can remember that day and what

21
00:02:07.329 --> 00:02:09.250
you were doing, what you had on. I know I

22
00:02:09.270 --> 00:02:13.050
can remember that day and this weekend, this Friday, I

23
00:02:13.110 --> 00:02:17.629
purposely watched other, uh, other segments that they had up

24
00:02:17.680 --> 00:02:20.219
that were new to me. And, uh, I just felt

25
00:02:20.280 --> 00:02:24.840
compelled to watch, um, and just hear the stories and

26
00:02:25.300 --> 00:02:28.780
hear the memories, um, and all that, that those over

27
00:02:28.780 --> 00:02:32.639
3000 people that we lost, um, And I have to

28
00:02:32.680 --> 00:02:35.219
tell you, I was thinking about the show even throughout

29
00:02:35.259 --> 00:02:37.889
the weekend. And I was like, you know, I have

30
00:02:37.930 --> 00:02:42.229
to say that every so many years I stop on

31
00:02:42.289 --> 00:02:46.669
September 11th. I stop and just wait. I just wait.

32
00:02:47.430 --> 00:02:49.849
And I'm not I don't know what I'm waiting for,

33
00:02:49.939 --> 00:02:53.719
but it's like, OK. And I make sure strategically that

34
00:02:53.759 --> 00:02:57.400
I'm not in a large place. I'm not where I'm

35
00:02:57.439 --> 00:02:58.219
not familiar.

36
00:02:58.240 --> 00:02:59.960
OK.

37
00:03:00.120 --> 00:03:00.789
Audio only. OK.

38
00:03:00.800 --> 00:03:00.900
OK.

39
00:03:01.389 --> 00:03:07.030
Miss Kay, you're only in audio only. But yeah, I

40
00:03:07.090 --> 00:03:10.129
have those moments that, you know, throughout the years, it's

41
00:03:10.169 --> 00:03:12.629
been over 20 plus years since this has happened. But

42
00:03:13.370 --> 00:03:18.009
I stop and I make sure I'm home. I know

43
00:03:18.030 --> 00:03:21.490
where my kids are. You know, I know their schedule.

44
00:03:21.849 --> 00:03:23.789
And Miss Kay is hearing this for the first time.

45
00:03:23.840 --> 00:03:28.250
But ever since, I do take a minute and my

46
00:03:28.289 --> 00:03:30.819
head is on a swivel. I am watching the news.

47
00:03:31.460 --> 00:03:34.960
I'm paying close attention to that just in case, just

48
00:03:35.020 --> 00:03:38.569
in case. So I found myself doing that this weekend

49
00:03:38.629 --> 00:03:40.789
because I'm saying if anybody's going to hit us, this,

50
00:03:40.909 --> 00:03:43.050
you know, it would be over here, be over there,

51
00:03:43.069 --> 00:03:47.740
you know, and it's not bondage. I'm not captivated by it.

52
00:03:47.750 --> 00:03:51.150
I'm not obsessed by it. I'm not. Oh, my God. No,

53
00:03:51.250 --> 00:03:54.159
I'm just telling you, I take a human moment and

54
00:03:54.219 --> 00:03:57.979
I sit with these people not imagining what I would

55
00:03:58.020 --> 00:04:02.159
do if I was in their situation. So I know

56
00:04:02.199 --> 00:04:08.310
everybody has their moments, their experience. They remember, like I said,

57
00:04:08.349 --> 00:04:11.210
I remember I was teaching at the community college in

58
00:04:11.229 --> 00:04:15.900
my hometown. I was in my nice blue shirt, that

59
00:04:16.040 --> 00:04:19.720
long sleeve, real crisp, my blue, navy blue pants and

60
00:04:19.939 --> 00:04:22.579
one of my loafers that I love, leather and a

61
00:04:22.600 --> 00:04:25.699
little alligator skin, but it's all blue. I won't forget that.

62
00:04:25.759 --> 00:04:28.100
I had my hair back. And I just taken my

63
00:04:28.220 --> 00:04:30.980
oldest son to the daycare, which was not that far away.

64
00:04:31.459 --> 00:04:34.500
Came back home to change to go to to go

65
00:04:34.540 --> 00:04:37.579
to work. And I'm hearing the TV. I had the

66
00:04:37.620 --> 00:04:40.050
TV on and I'm coming out and I'm but I'm

67
00:04:40.129 --> 00:04:43.490
buttoning my cuff. And I'm like, oh, I wonder what

68
00:04:43.529 --> 00:04:46.009
movie that is. That's when the first airplane had hit.

69
00:04:46.449 --> 00:04:48.629
I said, what movie is that? Oh, my God, that was.

70
00:04:49.129 --> 00:04:51.610
That's kind of artistic that get the plane to look

71
00:04:51.629 --> 00:04:53.930
like it's going into the tower. And then all of

72
00:04:53.949 --> 00:04:56.370
a sudden the commentators reporters say, oh, my God, oh,

73
00:04:56.389 --> 00:04:59.089
my God, is a second one. And I'm like, are

74
00:04:59.110 --> 00:05:01.949
they filming this? Have they already filmed? I'm literally talking

75
00:05:01.970 --> 00:05:04.889
to the TV light and only to find out this

76
00:05:04.949 --> 00:05:08.149
was real time and what was happening. So I I

77
00:05:08.189 --> 00:05:10.170
pause for a minute and I said, no, let me

78
00:05:10.189 --> 00:05:13.050
go to the college. Make sure no one showed up there.

79
00:05:13.660 --> 00:05:15.660
And then I'm going to daycare to get my child

80
00:05:15.680 --> 00:05:18.259
because I don't know what's getting ready to fall out.

81
00:05:18.519 --> 00:05:20.879
I don't know. So and I did that. I pulled up.

82
00:05:20.959 --> 00:05:22.740
Some of my students were in the parking lot. They're like,

83
00:05:22.759 --> 00:05:24.019
Miss Gray, what do we do? I said, go home,

84
00:05:24.459 --> 00:05:26.569
go home and you pray. And at that time I

85
00:05:26.629 --> 00:05:29.269
saw George Bush was in Palm Beach County and I

86
00:05:29.329 --> 00:05:36.089
saw Air Force One literally fly over us. So it's

87
00:05:36.290 --> 00:05:40.329
it's it's like a wow. It's like and I went

88
00:05:40.350 --> 00:05:41.930
to the classroom to make sure no one's in there.

89
00:05:41.949 --> 00:05:45.199
The janitors were already there. locking the doors. And then

90
00:05:45.259 --> 00:05:49.579
I went straight down, uh, Congress trade. You would know

91
00:05:49.620 --> 00:05:52.680
that Congress all the way. And I crossed over at

92
00:05:52.860 --> 00:05:55.800
45th street to, uh, for the military trail. Cause the

93
00:05:55.839 --> 00:05:58.779
daycare was in that wind Dixie off a military and

94
00:05:58.959 --> 00:06:01.800
45th street. We were right down the street, but right now,

95
00:06:02.100 --> 00:06:04.730
but anyway, I'm not going to stay on that long. Um,

96
00:06:06.089 --> 00:06:08.930
I've got a bone to pick with people and they

97
00:06:08.949 --> 00:06:12.360
don't watch the show. So, Um, so y'all be okay.

98
00:06:12.399 --> 00:06:15.300
Roll call. Don't let me forget stuff. Yeah. I'll call

99
00:06:15.319 --> 00:06:17.240
the stuff out if I'm forgetting stuff. Cause I'm really

100
00:06:17.339 --> 00:06:21.220
not myself right now. So, uh, roll call who's listening in.

101
00:06:21.699 --> 00:06:23.230
Let me, come on. Let me see you. Let's let

102
00:06:23.259 --> 00:06:25.009
us see you so we can say hello to you

103
00:06:25.050 --> 00:06:27.470
and everything. And we appreciate you. And I know those

104
00:06:27.509 --> 00:06:29.629
of you who are listening through radio, you're not able

105
00:06:29.649 --> 00:06:31.790
to do that. We appreciate you. But if you can

106
00:06:31.810 --> 00:06:34.449
go to the setting a straight page on Facebook and

107
00:06:34.480 --> 00:06:36.060
just say, Hey, I was on radio, but I could

108
00:06:36.079 --> 00:06:42.110
hear you out of it. Um, This past week, I'm

109
00:06:42.129 --> 00:06:46.850
not surrounded, but I'm in the plow with people who

110
00:06:46.889 --> 00:06:50.870
really just, I don't know what they're thinking. And normally,

111
00:06:50.889 --> 00:06:53.350
you all probably don't realize, but normally I wear a

112
00:06:53.410 --> 00:06:56.569
bracelet with a cross on it. But tonight, I'm just

113
00:06:56.610 --> 00:07:01.589
kind of discombobulated, but I got my mustard seeds from

114
00:07:01.610 --> 00:07:10.879
my group, my tribe, my family. up in the Mississippi, Tennessee, no, Mississippi, Louisiana, Washington, D.C.,

115
00:07:10.920 --> 00:07:14.720
Virginia area. And I grabbed this just now to calm

116
00:07:14.779 --> 00:07:18.779
myself down. I just wish people would just stop playing

117
00:07:18.819 --> 00:07:22.060
with people and your emotions. And part of self-care, which

118
00:07:22.120 --> 00:07:26.029
is we're talking about healthy aging today, tonight, and self-care

119
00:07:26.170 --> 00:07:29.240
once again, The best self-care you could do once you,

120
00:07:29.459 --> 00:07:32.420
once the enemy, once people have been exposed, to leave

121
00:07:32.439 --> 00:07:34.639
them alone, leave them where they're at. There's no, let

122
00:07:34.680 --> 00:07:37.519
me go and see if I can help you. There's no, oh,

123
00:07:37.680 --> 00:07:40.560
I hope you do better. And in some cases, there's

124
00:07:40.600 --> 00:07:43.019
no me for me. This is just me. This is

125
00:07:43.060 --> 00:07:45.370
just me. I ain't praying for you because you're an

126
00:07:45.410 --> 00:07:49.199
enemy already. You're trying to trigger my flesh. You're trying to,

127
00:07:49.550 --> 00:07:51.509
you think you could get me to, you could woo

128
00:07:51.550 --> 00:07:54.110
over me because I'm a nice person, because I can

129
00:07:54.129 --> 00:07:57.360
make you laugh. I can make you cry. I'm nice.

130
00:07:57.600 --> 00:08:02.319
I'm generous. And you take that for granted because what

131
00:08:02.360 --> 00:08:05.180
you could do for me is you serve God. You

132
00:08:05.199 --> 00:08:06.980
believe in God as much as you believe. If I

133
00:08:07.000 --> 00:08:08.850
could just get to Miss Gray, if I could just

134
00:08:08.879 --> 00:08:11.649
talk to Miss Gray. No, get me out of that.

135
00:08:12.110 --> 00:08:14.290
So if I could just get to God, if I could,

136
00:08:14.350 --> 00:08:16.610
if I know going on my knees right now, I

137
00:08:16.629 --> 00:08:19.689
can pray and I know God will hear me do that.

138
00:08:20.129 --> 00:08:23.399
But don't call me if you plan games. Because he

139
00:08:23.439 --> 00:08:25.470
knows what you're going to do. He already knows what

140
00:08:25.490 --> 00:08:27.910
you're going to do. He already knows. He knew before

141
00:08:27.930 --> 00:08:30.949
your mother's womb knew you were coming. God knows every

142
00:08:31.089 --> 00:08:35.269
human being on this earth. He knows every animal. He

143
00:08:35.330 --> 00:08:37.990
knows what you're going to do, whether you believe in

144
00:08:38.070 --> 00:08:42.190
him or not, because he is the creator. He knows

145
00:08:42.710 --> 00:08:45.029
the one thing we can't human beings, no matter how

146
00:08:45.070 --> 00:08:47.250
close we get to God. One thing we cannot do

147
00:08:47.690 --> 00:08:50.730
is judge. No, you know what's in your heart. until

148
00:08:50.750 --> 00:08:52.710
you act it out or until you speak it. I

149
00:08:52.750 --> 00:08:55.200
have no idea what Trey is thinking right now. I

150
00:08:55.240 --> 00:08:57.480
know she's praying for me right now, but I have

151
00:08:57.519 --> 00:09:00.500
no idea other than that, what she's thinking. I don't

152
00:09:00.519 --> 00:09:02.600
know what her next move is going to be tomorrow.

153
00:09:02.639 --> 00:09:05.259
I don't know how her day was today until she

154
00:09:05.419 --> 00:09:08.139
says something. I was in the drive-thru line at the

155
00:09:08.159 --> 00:09:12.950
Walgreens in Hunter's Creek with the kids in the backseat. Okay. Oh, oh,

156
00:09:13.029 --> 00:09:16.169
I hear you. All right. Thank you, Missy. Okay. You

157
00:09:16.190 --> 00:09:19.240
can remember. You can remember that day. Check it in.

158
00:09:19.259 --> 00:09:21.440
Thank you, Charles. Thank you, guys. I love you guys.

159
00:09:21.480 --> 00:09:24.200
Thank you all so much. Where's Tennessee? I got somebody

160
00:09:24.220 --> 00:09:26.500
in Palm Beach County that's supposed to be listening in tonight.

161
00:09:26.600 --> 00:09:29.919
Come on now. And once again, you want me to

162
00:09:29.970 --> 00:09:35.509
support you, but you don't support us. Anastasia, thank you, Anastasia. LDK,

163
00:09:35.529 --> 00:09:38.509
there's Tennessee. Thank you. Love the hair, Sister Trey. All right.

164
00:09:38.610 --> 00:09:47.370
All right. Amen. Amen. So, you know, Stop playing and

165
00:09:47.429 --> 00:09:49.870
leave me out of the confusion. I'm really ready to

166
00:09:49.929 --> 00:09:53.009
delete everybody in my phone. I'm really ready. That's how

167
00:09:53.049 --> 00:09:56.169
much I don't want no human contact because I have

168
00:09:56.210 --> 00:09:59.970
had it up to here with you playing, being fearful.

169
00:10:00.129 --> 00:10:02.980
of me more than you are of God. Don't you

170
00:10:03.159 --> 00:10:06.320
dare put that arrow on my back. Don't put that

171
00:10:06.519 --> 00:10:09.379
mark on me. I will leave you where you're at.

172
00:10:09.419 --> 00:10:12.559
And I'm sorry if I'm scaring somebody, but I was

173
00:10:12.600 --> 00:10:16.659
encouraged to just be real tonight. And this is my self-care.

174
00:10:17.100 --> 00:10:19.379
Cause I'm all right now. I told you, I grabbed my,

175
00:10:19.779 --> 00:10:22.120
I grabbed my mustard seed and I held it in my,

176
00:10:22.200 --> 00:10:23.960
I looked at it. If I have faith of just

177
00:10:24.159 --> 00:10:27.129
one of these, if I have faith, just one and Lord,

178
00:10:27.169 --> 00:10:30.649
I have faith that you will rid me of anybody.

179
00:10:30.690 --> 00:10:33.870
That's not for my good anymore. And I'll be good

180
00:10:34.370 --> 00:10:37.429
because people, some of the conversations I've had, people are

181
00:10:37.830 --> 00:10:42.259
really fooling themselves. I don't think you're fooling me. Cause

182
00:10:42.320 --> 00:10:46.909
I'm just listening. But when I need to talk to somebody,

183
00:10:46.950 --> 00:10:50.669
I can't get nobody on the phone. And I'm good

184
00:10:50.690 --> 00:10:53.389
because I'm deleting people. I'm good. I'm good. I'm going

185
00:10:53.409 --> 00:10:55.590
to be okay, guys. It's not best to hold the

186
00:10:56.049 --> 00:10:59.370
negative inside. You're right, Mickey. That's why I was encouraged

187
00:10:59.450 --> 00:11:03.279
by Rebel and Trey. Maybe somebody needs to hear this,

188
00:11:03.340 --> 00:11:06.440
that it's okay to let people go. It's okay to

189
00:11:06.500 --> 00:11:11.860
say no. It's okay to self-care you. And right now,

190
00:11:12.039 --> 00:11:16.039
I got y'all. But I got to look out for me.

191
00:11:16.480 --> 00:11:20.399
Because Miss Kay can tell you, I'm really discombobulated. And

192
00:11:20.440 --> 00:11:22.799
I don't know where this is coming from. Okay. You

193
00:11:22.940 --> 00:11:26.440
ain't got the... Okay. I don't like what you're writing, y'all.

194
00:11:27.039 --> 00:11:27.360
Excuse me?

195
00:11:27.960 --> 00:11:31.519
I said, I don't like when she's like this. She

196
00:11:31.539 --> 00:11:35.460
throw me off. So that means tighten up your will.

197
00:11:36.080 --> 00:11:36.620
I'll be okay.

198
00:11:37.590 --> 00:11:38.230
And you will be.

199
00:11:38.250 --> 00:11:40.710
Yeah, thank you.

200
00:11:41.009 --> 00:11:43.610
But I'm glad, Ms.

201
00:11:43.629 --> 00:11:43.929
Gray.

202
00:11:44.509 --> 00:11:46.129
Are you okay, Charles?

203
00:11:47.309 --> 00:11:48.370
She's okay. You know what?

204
00:11:48.850 --> 00:11:52.490
Yeah, she is. So let me just kind of throw

205
00:11:52.509 --> 00:11:53.029
something in.

206
00:11:53.070 --> 00:11:56.649
And I know she is a believer and she's in

207
00:11:56.690 --> 00:12:00.169
the word and she's a follower of Christ. And we understand.

208
00:12:00.190 --> 00:12:02.950
And she's been in the walk longer than I have

209
00:12:03.590 --> 00:12:08.320
on this level. And I say that there are attacks

210
00:12:08.440 --> 00:12:12.240
when you are trying to be Christ-like, when you are

211
00:12:12.299 --> 00:12:16.649
following the word. There will be things, people that will

212
00:12:16.710 --> 00:12:17.629
come after you.

213
00:12:17.909 --> 00:12:22.309
And sometimes it's the spirits that.

214
00:12:22.230 --> 00:12:25.509
Are on people that will come after you and to

215
00:12:25.570 --> 00:12:30.330
try to destroy you. So I think it was good

216
00:12:30.389 --> 00:12:31.529
to bring this out, Ms.

217
00:12:31.549 --> 00:12:31.870
Graves.

218
00:12:32.240 --> 00:12:34.399
And I know it's difficult, but I think people need

219
00:12:34.440 --> 00:12:38.039
to understand that when you are trying to follow and

220
00:12:38.100 --> 00:12:41.350
be the best, there will be things that come after you.

221
00:12:41.870 --> 00:12:47.370
Part of the self-improvement and self-care is when to let go.

222
00:12:47.450 --> 00:12:48.110
When is when.

223
00:12:48.690 --> 00:12:54.129
And so when it jeopardizes your health, when it jeopardizes

224
00:12:54.169 --> 00:12:56.529
your thought patterns, your eat, your.

225
00:12:56.370 --> 00:13:02.379
Sleep, your energy, Jazzy put her input in.

226
00:13:04.179 --> 00:13:09.360
So it's time to self-evaluate and recognize, is this worth

227
00:13:09.519 --> 00:13:14.919
my health, my sanity, my well-being? And so stress will

228
00:13:14.960 --> 00:13:18.450
take you out of here. Stress has and will take

229
00:13:18.490 --> 00:13:21.190
you out of here. And it's not worth it. And

230
00:13:21.250 --> 00:13:25.330
being able to recognize what is triggering your moods. And

231
00:13:25.649 --> 00:13:27.470
when you can kind of fine-tune.

232
00:13:27.789 --> 00:13:28.350
It's okay.

233
00:13:29.169 --> 00:13:32.730
This over here, got to let that go. Them over there,

234
00:13:32.750 --> 00:13:35.470
I got to let that go. And there's nothing wrong

235
00:13:35.509 --> 00:13:38.700
with that. You have to preserve yourself because if you

236
00:13:38.740 --> 00:13:40.840
don't preserve yourself, you're not going to be good to

237
00:13:40.940 --> 00:13:41.639
anybody else.

238
00:13:42.200 --> 00:13:46.909
And just sharing too. It's been a... a trying week

239
00:13:46.950 --> 00:13:47.789
for me as well.

240
00:13:48.809 --> 00:13:50.590
I mean, it's, it's, it's some, like when I say

241
00:13:50.610 --> 00:13:53.899
spiritual warfare, it's some stuff that the arrows coming after

242
00:13:53.960 --> 00:13:55.259
me and different places.

243
00:13:55.779 --> 00:13:57.659
And I just have to be reminded.

244
00:13:57.860 --> 00:14:01.779
Be still follow what God has, will have me to do.

245
00:14:02.340 --> 00:14:05.269
And then I know trusting in him, the faith has

246
00:14:05.330 --> 00:14:06.049
a mustard seed.

247
00:14:06.090 --> 00:14:06.470
Like Ms.

248
00:14:06.490 --> 00:14:09.250
Gray was saying, if you had that much faith, we

249
00:14:09.289 --> 00:14:11.230
know that God is going to pull you out of

250
00:14:11.330 --> 00:14:17.429
whatever that is. Just have to be, prayerful, steadfast, committed,

251
00:14:17.970 --> 00:14:21.750
and just trusting in him because it's not easy. And

252
00:14:21.789 --> 00:14:24.769
though we are on the show, we have things that

253
00:14:24.809 --> 00:14:26.470
go on too. So we want to kind of share.

254
00:14:26.909 --> 00:14:30.850
It's okay not to feel okay. It's okay not to

255
00:14:30.889 --> 00:14:34.100
feel okay. But I'm very fortunate that I have created

256
00:14:34.120 --> 00:14:38.629
a support systems that I can reach out to Should

257
00:14:38.649 --> 00:14:42.950
I go through this? And these ladies and Rebel in

258
00:14:42.970 --> 00:14:45.529
the background are a few of them.

259
00:14:46.070 --> 00:14:47.110
I don't know how I can get through that.

260
00:14:47.129 --> 00:14:49.820
I look forward to this show because this is like

261
00:14:50.259 --> 00:14:54.580
part of my sanity, if that makes sense. It's, well, like-minded,

262
00:14:54.639 --> 00:14:58.340
we don't always have the same approach to things, but like-minded.

263
00:14:58.379 --> 00:15:01.620
So Puppy knows to speak up well. He may have

264
00:15:01.679 --> 00:15:03.570
seen the angel watching you.

265
00:15:03.950 --> 00:15:04.669
Yes, Charles.

266
00:15:05.139 --> 00:15:08.759
Yes, Charles, you have earned wings around you. You're walking

267
00:15:08.779 --> 00:15:11.610
the walk the correct way. Yes, Misty, thank you for

268
00:15:11.620 --> 00:15:14.649
the words of encouragement. We are to be in prayer

269
00:15:14.769 --> 00:15:17.549
for one another. Yes, Elder Kay, thank you so much.

270
00:15:17.990 --> 00:15:20.230
And we just want to pour to you, Miss Gray,

271
00:15:20.370 --> 00:15:25.370
you know, and just pray that whomever, whatever this is

272
00:15:25.409 --> 00:15:29.529
that's trying to attack you, be gone. That nothing is

273
00:15:29.549 --> 00:15:32.009
going to be good of this and that they just

274
00:15:32.509 --> 00:15:34.830
go away. I'm not saying they have to pass away,

275
00:15:34.909 --> 00:15:39.389
but just be removed from your life because you need

276
00:15:39.429 --> 00:15:43.210
your sanity, your peace, and just recognize the person that

277
00:15:43.250 --> 00:15:46.629
you are. And I'm just so sorry that someone has

278
00:15:46.730 --> 00:15:49.570
the nerve and the gall to come after you in

279
00:15:49.610 --> 00:15:50.029
that way.

280
00:15:50.429 --> 00:15:52.509
And I pray for them because I don't know what

281
00:15:52.549 --> 00:15:55.429
God would have in store. You're one of his. So

282
00:15:55.450 --> 00:15:56.409
that's what I got to say.

283
00:15:57.230 --> 00:15:59.549
But I'm glad that you guys are able to kind

284
00:15:59.610 --> 00:16:02.870
of see what the walk is like because... When you're

285
00:16:02.929 --> 00:16:04.929
doing well, when you're doing good, the devil is going

286
00:16:04.950 --> 00:16:07.389
to only attack you. When he knows there's a breakthrough

287
00:16:07.470 --> 00:16:10.730
coming for your life, something as good as about to happen,

288
00:16:10.769 --> 00:16:11.620
this is what happens.

289
00:16:11.629 --> 00:16:14.340
He shuts you down emotionally, et cetera.

290
00:16:14.379 --> 00:16:17.779
And that's why we have to, of course, remain strong and,

291
00:16:18.279 --> 00:16:21.720
you know, still in our walk and just wait on

292
00:16:21.759 --> 00:16:23.899
God for his voice. I mean, we always get irritated.

293
00:16:23.940 --> 00:16:24.779
We're emotions.

294
00:16:25.259 --> 00:16:28.240
We have emotions. We are human beings.

295
00:16:29.360 --> 00:16:31.179
And tonight is just a night y'all have to see,

296
00:16:31.210 --> 00:16:34.620
you know, a slightly discombobulated side of my mom, but

297
00:16:35.240 --> 00:16:37.620
she's going to be okay. Cause this is not something

298
00:16:37.659 --> 00:16:41.870
she has not gone through already. It's just another little pitchfork,

299
00:16:42.710 --> 00:16:45.389
you know, right now, but she'll be all right, of course.

300
00:16:45.570 --> 00:16:47.309
And she knows how this journey goes.

301
00:16:47.970 --> 00:16:50.460
I mean, there's something big coming and I hope she

302
00:16:50.500 --> 00:16:53.399
just looks forward to it because it has to be

303
00:16:53.460 --> 00:16:55.220
great for the devil to try to knock her off

304
00:16:55.279 --> 00:16:58.059
a course. It has to be great. So, and I

305
00:16:58.100 --> 00:17:00.309
can only believe it's great. I know it.

306
00:17:00.870 --> 00:17:02.350
Man, thank you, Mickey. Thank you.

307
00:17:02.450 --> 00:17:02.789
Thank you.

308
00:17:02.809 --> 00:17:04.410
We really do appreciate it.

309
00:17:04.430 --> 00:17:06.269
We do appreciate it. And you can feel it, too.

310
00:17:06.430 --> 00:17:09.569
You can feel it. There's a coolness that will come

311
00:17:09.630 --> 00:17:13.390
from nowhere. And I'm like, okay, somebody's thinking about me,

312
00:17:13.430 --> 00:17:16.259
you know. Well, I'll see your faces, you know, sometimes,

313
00:17:16.619 --> 00:17:19.220
you know, and stuff. And, of course, I was mainly

314
00:17:19.279 --> 00:17:21.839
thinking about the show this weekend and what you all

315
00:17:21.900 --> 00:17:24.640
were going through with, you know, with the event, you know,

316
00:17:25.039 --> 00:17:28.369
from 9-11 and You know, because everybody still has moments

317
00:17:28.470 --> 00:17:30.450
and stuff. So I was thinking about y'all. But thank

318
00:17:30.470 --> 00:17:35.450
you all, everybody. But, you know, this is the 10% flesh.

319
00:17:36.029 --> 00:17:36.750
Is that jazz?

320
00:17:36.910 --> 00:17:39.150
Yeah, it is.

321
00:17:39.809 --> 00:17:43.170
Don't be sad. I'm trying not to. I'm coming out

322
00:17:43.230 --> 00:17:45.710
of it. I'm rolling out of it. But it's just,

323
00:17:46.349 --> 00:17:48.630
as Rebel had to say, you know, sometimes you just

324
00:17:48.730 --> 00:17:51.799
got to just say it. And I hope that this

325
00:17:51.880 --> 00:17:55.339
is helping someone. I am not weak. I'm not weak.

326
00:17:55.869 --> 00:17:59.289
I'm still that warrior. I still will fight and I

327
00:17:59.309 --> 00:18:02.609
will fight till the end in the spirit. I promise

328
00:18:02.650 --> 00:18:04.829
you that. But this is what happens. And this is

329
00:18:04.869 --> 00:18:09.259
why you need to make sure that your tribe, your circle,

330
00:18:09.819 --> 00:18:13.779
not man's circle, but the spiritual circle is strong enough

331
00:18:14.119 --> 00:18:16.880
so I can tap out. I can tap out and

332
00:18:16.920 --> 00:18:20.220
y'all take it from here. Y'all keep the prayers going.

333
00:18:20.539 --> 00:18:23.289
Y'all keep the conversation going. I need to be able

334
00:18:23.329 --> 00:18:25.910
to do that. So that's why God is strengthening you

335
00:18:26.029 --> 00:18:29.930
all to trust him. Not so much me or Miss

336
00:18:29.990 --> 00:18:33.839
Trey or Miss Kay, but to trust him. He knows

337
00:18:33.970 --> 00:18:36.599
what to do. He knows what's going to happen. He

338
00:18:36.640 --> 00:18:38.579
knew I was not going to be. I was trying

339
00:18:38.599 --> 00:18:40.720
my best not to say much tonight so I could

340
00:18:41.119 --> 00:18:45.200
just stay silent. But, you know, you see the strength

341
00:18:45.299 --> 00:18:48.640
that you all gave me just by typing what you felt.

342
00:18:49.220 --> 00:18:53.430
You know, Trey's words, Miss Kay's words strengthened me. Because,

343
00:18:53.470 --> 00:18:56.250
you know, I just, you know, I'm yelling today and

344
00:18:56.329 --> 00:18:58.890
crying at the same time. And I'm like, uh-uh. No,

345
00:18:58.990 --> 00:19:00.369
we ain't going to do this because I'll let you go.

346
00:19:00.869 --> 00:19:03.390
I will. I will. Because no one will come between

347
00:19:03.430 --> 00:19:06.619
me and my God. No one. Nobody I birthed into

348
00:19:06.660 --> 00:19:11.220
this world. No two-legged, no four-legged, no feathered. Nobody. I've

349
00:19:11.240 --> 00:19:13.160
been through too much. And I know all of you

350
00:19:13.220 --> 00:19:15.660
all have a testimony. whether you want to give the

351
00:19:15.700 --> 00:19:17.680
credit to God or not. But I know you can

352
00:19:17.700 --> 00:19:19.279
look back and say, oh God, I was in that

353
00:19:19.339 --> 00:19:21.240
car accident. Oh my God, when I was four, I

354
00:19:21.299 --> 00:19:24.759
had this. When I was in high school, I went

355
00:19:24.799 --> 00:19:27.339
through this. I mean, God has been with y'all. I

356
00:19:27.380 --> 00:19:30.369
know it's testimony time. We could just have a night

357
00:19:30.400 --> 00:19:32.200
of that. We could have a whole month of that,

358
00:19:32.589 --> 00:19:36.069
of Mondays. Every night, 50 minutes, everybody just getting on

359
00:19:36.089 --> 00:19:39.029
here and giving a testimony. I'm not questioning your belief.

360
00:19:39.089 --> 00:19:41.369
None of us would ever think you're weak, even in

361
00:19:41.410 --> 00:19:44.250
time of burden you carry. We know you are a

362
00:19:44.269 --> 00:19:47.529
strong woman leader. Thank you, Misty. I'm just trying to

363
00:19:47.569 --> 00:19:51.099
please God because I had a. fellow student, one of

364
00:19:51.119 --> 00:19:53.940
my former students called me about a week ago. I've

365
00:19:54.019 --> 00:19:58.019
already deleted her information and stuff. And she said, I

366
00:19:58.059 --> 00:20:00.240
want to run something by you. And I said, okay.

367
00:20:00.549 --> 00:20:03.509
And she's like, well, I'm no longer a Christian. And

368
00:20:03.970 --> 00:20:06.450
because of the Hebrew, this and that and the other.

369
00:20:06.509 --> 00:20:08.750
And I'm just looking at the Old Testament. The Old

370
00:20:08.789 --> 00:20:12.069
Testament never talks about Jesus. And I'm looking up at

371
00:20:12.109 --> 00:20:19.089
God like, are you serious? I'm missing my show for this. Okay. So, Ms. Gray,

372
00:20:19.109 --> 00:20:20.529
I just want to know what you thought about it.

373
00:20:21.150 --> 00:20:22.759
I have no thought on that because that's the stupidest

374
00:20:22.779 --> 00:20:24.940
thing I've ever heard. And I see why the devil,

375
00:20:25.000 --> 00:20:27.000
you know, the devil hates you. But didn't you do

376
00:20:27.019 --> 00:20:29.910
some subbing? Didn't you do something with the education? Yeah,

377
00:20:29.950 --> 00:20:31.710
I did some subbing. I said, yeah, and you're a singer.

378
00:20:32.190 --> 00:20:33.970
So the devil hates you. So, of course, he would

379
00:20:33.990 --> 00:20:37.690
make you, but you're easy to get confused. I went there.

380
00:20:38.190 --> 00:20:39.730
I said, and why do you still have my number?

381
00:20:40.190 --> 00:20:41.819
I said, because the group that you're talking about, they

382
00:20:41.839 --> 00:20:45.039
don't even recognize women. You can't even sing. What you

383
00:20:45.140 --> 00:20:49.420
should be concerned about is your next track, your next CD.

384
00:20:49.859 --> 00:20:52.910
Where's your praise and worship music? I did not teach you.

385
00:20:52.930 --> 00:20:57.309
Then I tell you intercessors like y'all keep me grounded

386
00:20:57.809 --> 00:21:00.089
and you're going to call me with this. And then

387
00:21:00.109 --> 00:21:02.559
I went into her personal business. I said, I'm so

388
00:21:02.599 --> 00:21:05.460
sorry that folks let you down. And I, God had

389
00:21:05.480 --> 00:21:07.900
me calling out stuff that I would not know. That's

390
00:21:07.920 --> 00:21:10.630
the kind of calls I get guys. And I'm supposed to,

391
00:21:10.869 --> 00:21:13.380
what I'm supposed to do with that? Delete. Cause you've

392
00:21:13.400 --> 00:21:16.839
lost your mind. And what you're trying to, what you, Oh,

393
00:21:18.019 --> 00:21:20.119
you should know me. You've had me for four years

394
00:21:20.180 --> 00:21:24.460
as a instructor. You know, I ain't, Oh, never. And

395
00:21:24.480 --> 00:21:27.380
then you got people who think that because you can't

396
00:21:27.440 --> 00:21:30.319
see what they're doing, that they, they, they, they can

397
00:21:30.380 --> 00:21:33.980
get by, but they fear you more than they fear God.

398
00:21:34.140 --> 00:21:36.619
I will never. That's what I've created a box. You

399
00:21:36.660 --> 00:21:38.869
all be happy for me. Be happy for me. I

400
00:21:38.890 --> 00:21:41.640
created a box that, and what goes in that box is,

401
00:21:42.009 --> 00:21:43.690
I don't know what that is. And I don't need

402
00:21:43.730 --> 00:21:47.529
to know. So, and it's getting, it's almost half full

403
00:21:47.609 --> 00:21:50.240
over there, but I don't need to know stuff. That's

404
00:21:50.259 --> 00:21:51.920
stuff we don't need. I don't need to ask you

405
00:21:51.940 --> 00:21:54.839
the why. I don't need to know because it's not

406
00:21:54.859 --> 00:21:56.680
going to make me better. It's not going to make

407
00:21:56.740 --> 00:21:59.180
you better. And it has nothing to do with my assignment.

408
00:21:59.730 --> 00:22:01.670
And by the time I'm on my way to heaven again,

409
00:22:02.799 --> 00:22:04.779
I'm not going to care. It's not going to matter.

410
00:22:05.279 --> 00:22:08.480
So why should I plague myself, put this stuff in

411
00:22:08.529 --> 00:22:12.509
my brain just to have a night like this? Why

412
00:22:12.549 --> 00:22:16.289
I'm crying, my health, I wasn't feeling good earlier. I'm like,

413
00:22:16.349 --> 00:22:19.279
what in the world? Flesh? I had to talk to

414
00:22:19.299 --> 00:22:21.779
my flesh. I don't care who said this. I had

415
00:22:21.799 --> 00:22:24.319
to talk to my flesh. What you doing? Didn't God

416
00:22:24.380 --> 00:22:27.779
prove to you? I'm talking to my flesh, my brain,

417
00:22:27.839 --> 00:22:31.180
my heart, my soul. Didn't my God prove to you

418
00:22:31.220 --> 00:22:33.440
who I was and that you have nothing to do

419
00:22:33.480 --> 00:22:36.700
with this flesh? That's how you have to talk to

420
00:22:36.740 --> 00:22:41.180
yourself sometime. Get yourself checked. The Bible said, judge yourself

421
00:22:41.200 --> 00:22:43.069
so you won't be judged. You know my saying on it?

422
00:22:43.480 --> 00:22:45.529
Check yourself so you won't be checked because your flesh

423
00:22:45.569 --> 00:22:48.049
is sitting there looking like, OK, the brain is going

424
00:22:48.089 --> 00:22:50.490
to want you. The brain wants to get all the credit.

425
00:22:50.839 --> 00:22:52.559
You know, oh no, they should go and pray. And

426
00:22:52.579 --> 00:22:54.200
now I'm going to make her knees hurt. I'm going

427
00:22:54.220 --> 00:22:57.829
to make her feet hurt and all that. What? Sometimes

428
00:22:57.849 --> 00:22:59.769
you have to pray your way out of things, guys.

429
00:23:00.109 --> 00:23:02.930
Sometimes you have to praise your way out. Sometimes you

430
00:23:02.950 --> 00:23:05.660
have to worship your way out. Sometimes you have to

431
00:23:05.940 --> 00:23:09.299
seed your way out. That means putting money where your

432
00:23:09.480 --> 00:23:13.000
faith is. And sometimes, in Ecclesiastes 3, there's a time

433
00:23:13.039 --> 00:23:16.019
and place for everything. You just got to know the timing.

434
00:23:16.460 --> 00:23:18.569
You just got to know the timing. And as I

435
00:23:18.609 --> 00:23:20.589
told a person today that I was venting to and

436
00:23:20.670 --> 00:23:23.569
yelling at in the gas station. I'm in the gas station.

437
00:23:23.670 --> 00:23:24.970
I ain't even got out the car to put the

438
00:23:24.990 --> 00:23:29.619
gas in my car. I'm like, boom. I said this

439
00:23:29.700 --> 00:23:33.190
this job, this this this this mantle. I don't want

440
00:23:33.210 --> 00:23:35.349
to call it a job. Excuse me for that. This

441
00:23:35.490 --> 00:23:40.309
mantle of faith walking and mentoring other people is no joke.

442
00:23:40.730 --> 00:23:42.640
When I was a college professor, I just had it

443
00:23:42.650 --> 00:23:45.819
from semester to semester. I knew what classes I was teaching.

444
00:23:46.099 --> 00:23:47.779
I knew I got to know the students in those

445
00:23:47.880 --> 00:23:50.660
in that semester time. But this is totally different when

446
00:23:50.700 --> 00:23:55.569
you're spiritually active. mentoring people when you are spiritually and

447
00:23:55.589 --> 00:23:57.650
I had to explain to the young lady that I

448
00:23:57.869 --> 00:24:02.670
cover you if I'm your spiritual mentor which means the

449
00:24:02.730 --> 00:24:06.589
devil comes after me first before he hits you And

450
00:24:06.630 --> 00:24:09.670
I know you're probably thinking, what? It's all scripture. So

451
00:24:09.710 --> 00:24:13.890
where I can't understand is you want to go and

452
00:24:13.930 --> 00:24:16.029
live your life the way you want to live it because,

453
00:24:16.109 --> 00:24:19.299
you know, that's flesh and that's life. And go right ahead.

454
00:24:19.759 --> 00:24:23.240
But don't stick up under me and I'm taking extra

455
00:24:23.299 --> 00:24:25.660
heat because you are making the decision you want to

456
00:24:25.700 --> 00:24:28.779
live like you want to live. Go. Go. But you

457
00:24:28.799 --> 00:24:31.200
know what? Not a problem because some people like to

458
00:24:31.220 --> 00:24:33.539
stick around and like to stick up under you and

459
00:24:33.559 --> 00:24:35.740
like to hold on to your coat tail. I will

460
00:24:35.799 --> 00:24:38.000
cut you loose because you're not going to affect. Look,

461
00:24:38.140 --> 00:24:43.029
thank God for y'all. If I didn't have y'all tonight,

462
00:24:43.049 --> 00:24:45.990
I don't know what Miss Kay and her brother would

463
00:24:46.029 --> 00:24:48.390
be dealing with tonight. Because I was already, okay, I'm

464
00:24:48.410 --> 00:24:56.299
washing my hands. Kick her out. See what I have

465
00:24:56.339 --> 00:24:58.339
to live with, y'all. Can I just bring my dog?

466
00:24:58.359 --> 00:24:59.420
Can I come live with somebody?

467
00:24:59.569 --> 00:25:00.980
Y'all, because we can't.

468
00:25:02.170 --> 00:25:04.289
Can I come live with somebody? I'll bring our own

469
00:25:04.329 --> 00:25:06.569
dog food and stuff. You see what I live with?

470
00:25:06.930 --> 00:25:09.630
This thing here. But anyway, thank you guys. I don't

471
00:25:09.650 --> 00:25:11.769
want to take up any more of the time. I'm good.

472
00:25:11.849 --> 00:25:13.670
I'm okay. I'm coming out of this.

473
00:25:13.970 --> 00:25:16.509
Wait, I'm not frozen, right?

474
00:25:16.529 --> 00:25:19.710
Yeah, you are kind of. Yeah, you're talking after the fact.

475
00:25:19.789 --> 00:25:21.309
Everything is messing up.

476
00:25:21.750 --> 00:25:22.059
Okay.

477
00:25:22.619 --> 00:25:26.930
Okay. Well, hide your face and let's hear you verbally. Okay.

478
00:25:27.190 --> 00:25:29.170
Don't mind me. I don't know what. But anyway, this

479
00:25:29.210 --> 00:25:31.529
is all about self-care, guys. This is what it looks like.

480
00:25:32.069 --> 00:25:34.380
This is what it sounds like. This is what it

481
00:25:34.390 --> 00:25:36.779
sounds like. And over the next. And this is so

482
00:25:36.839 --> 00:25:40.059
funny because over the next few days, I'm heading into

483
00:25:40.079 --> 00:25:43.059
the lion's den. I'll talk about it next week. But

484
00:25:43.099 --> 00:25:47.049
I'm heading purposely into the lion's den. Let's go. Oh, brother.

485
00:25:48.589 --> 00:25:52.230
Let's go. Because everybody that I'm speaking of, they don't

486
00:25:52.250 --> 00:25:54.579
watch the show. They don't support it. Self-care is good.

487
00:25:55.039 --> 00:25:57.079
And you got to know when to do it. You

488
00:25:57.099 --> 00:25:59.740
got to know. And that's the first part of self-care.

489
00:26:00.220 --> 00:26:03.700
Knowing when you need it. And the serenity prayer. I've

490
00:26:03.740 --> 00:26:06.630
mentioned this before. I'm going to mention it again. Poor

491
00:26:06.670 --> 00:26:10.170
Miss Kay. Let me look it up real quick. Trey,

492
00:26:10.210 --> 00:26:11.130
you want to add anything?

493
00:26:11.150 --> 00:26:14.009
I mean, I think you pretty much added a lot.

494
00:26:14.029 --> 00:26:18.190
But when you're talking about the self-improvement and self-care, but

495
00:26:18.210 --> 00:26:22.119
that's part of healthy aging as well. Because if you're

496
00:26:22.160 --> 00:26:27.130
affected by something, that's causing stress, that's not healthy aging.

497
00:26:27.569 --> 00:26:32.250
That's strenuous aging. It's not good. So it kind of

498
00:26:32.289 --> 00:26:33.329
goes hand in hand.

499
00:26:34.789 --> 00:26:38.309
But a lot of times we are affected by that

500
00:26:38.410 --> 00:26:42.789
which we are surrounded by, people, places, and things. So

501
00:26:42.849 --> 00:26:47.009
I just want to say that. I don't know how Ms.

502
00:26:47.069 --> 00:26:49.869
Gray is going through it. Like I said, it's, you know,

503
00:26:50.670 --> 00:26:52.849
I have to pray every day, you know, be specific.

504
00:26:53.410 --> 00:26:57.059
strategic and prayer and, you know, reading the word and

505
00:26:57.099 --> 00:27:01.519
trusting God and listening to even if small intervals you need.

506
00:27:01.559 --> 00:27:05.980
So, yes, Charles. Yes. Thank you. Yeah. Be able to

507
00:27:06.039 --> 00:27:06.519
do that.

508
00:27:06.579 --> 00:27:11.609
So whatever that means to you and whatever will distract

509
00:27:11.650 --> 00:27:15.269
your mind from whatever's going on or something to step

510
00:27:15.309 --> 00:27:16.059
away from it.

511
00:27:16.569 --> 00:27:18.609
And that could be anything. You know, that could be

512
00:27:18.670 --> 00:27:20.329
just taking a brief walk.

513
00:27:20.390 --> 00:27:24.750
That could be you know, listening to some calm music or,

514
00:27:25.289 --> 00:27:29.869
you know, prayer or calling someone that you know is soothing,

515
00:27:29.950 --> 00:27:32.990
is going to help you talk through this, whatever this is,

516
00:27:33.009 --> 00:27:33.670
and help you.

517
00:27:35.029 --> 00:27:37.650
Just kind of process whatever's going on.

518
00:27:38.769 --> 00:27:41.569
Me, I like water scenes, beat scenes, so that would

519
00:27:41.609 --> 00:27:43.049
be my go-to.

520
00:27:44.190 --> 00:27:44.990
When possible.

521
00:27:45.019 --> 00:27:49.150
You know, it's Convening with nature, just sitting outside, feeling

522
00:27:49.190 --> 00:27:51.710
the breeze and thinking about nothing, just looking at the

523
00:27:51.750 --> 00:27:55.009
birds and feeling the wind and watching the trees blow

524
00:27:55.049 --> 00:28:00.009
and watching the flowers bloom. Coloring, you know, just different things. Color,

525
00:28:00.130 --> 00:28:04.710
just some markers, crayons, pencils, whatever color. Be creative.

526
00:28:05.269 --> 00:28:05.990
Exercise.

527
00:28:06.029 --> 00:28:08.630
You know, there are different things to help to distract

528
00:28:08.670 --> 00:28:12.210
from that. But like I said, the mind affects the body.

529
00:28:12.710 --> 00:28:16.279
And so if stuff is coming at you, your mind

530
00:28:16.319 --> 00:28:18.380
and affecting that, you got to.

531
00:28:18.339 --> 00:28:20.500
Figure out a way to come, you know, to kind

532
00:28:20.519 --> 00:28:24.079
of combat that. You know, reading scripture, prayer. All of that.

533
00:28:24.099 --> 00:28:28.500
So those are just some of the go-tos that I name.

534
00:28:28.599 --> 00:28:31.619
But yeah, sometimes you got to recognize when to let people, places,

535
00:28:31.720 --> 00:28:32.400
and things go.

536
00:28:33.059 --> 00:28:39.440
Amen. And the serenity, serenity is that calmness, peacefulness. Listen

537
00:28:39.460 --> 00:28:48.990
to these verbs for a minute. Calm, calmness, hush, peace, repose, restfulness, sereneness, stillness. Okay?

538
00:28:49.369 --> 00:28:51.829
So keep those words in mind. And let me go

539
00:28:51.890 --> 00:28:56.289
through God, grant me the serenity. Give me the peace.

540
00:28:56.910 --> 00:29:01.329
Give me the quietness. Give me the serenity. Give me

541
00:29:01.390 --> 00:29:05.369
the sereneness. Give me a quiet to the quiet to.

542
00:29:05.430 --> 00:29:08.369
I never heard of that word. OK, so let's put

543
00:29:08.410 --> 00:29:12.289
that word in there. So God, grant me the peacefulness,

544
00:29:12.390 --> 00:29:16.880
the calmness to accept the things I cannot change. We

545
00:29:16.900 --> 00:29:20.400
can stay right there for a year. Amen. Thank you, Mickey. Amen.

546
00:29:20.880 --> 00:29:23.579
Things I cannot change. That's the first thing that the

547
00:29:23.619 --> 00:29:27.759
poet writes. The things I cannot change. Let me be

548
00:29:27.799 --> 00:29:31.269
at peace with this because I know I can't do

549
00:29:31.529 --> 00:29:34.950
nothing about this. I can't change her. I can't change him.

550
00:29:35.349 --> 00:29:38.549
I can't think for you. I know. And there's nobody

551
00:29:38.809 --> 00:29:41.130
like me in the world. I get that because you're

552
00:29:41.170 --> 00:29:42.970
not going to think like I do. You're not going

553
00:29:42.990 --> 00:29:45.859
to do like I do. I get that. So Lord,

554
00:29:45.910 --> 00:29:50.000
first thing he says, brought me the calmness, the peacefulness

555
00:29:50.339 --> 00:29:54.259
to accept the things I cannot change the courage to

556
00:29:54.339 --> 00:29:57.039
change the things I can. Well, how do you know

557
00:29:57.059 --> 00:29:59.940
what to change? If you've not written it down, sat

558
00:29:59.960 --> 00:30:04.869
with yourself in that same quietness and went over it like, okay, okay,

559
00:30:05.269 --> 00:30:07.789
this is what's bothering me now. This is what's tripping

560
00:30:07.829 --> 00:30:08.490
me up right now.

561
00:30:08.509 --> 00:30:09.190
Okay.

562
00:30:09.730 --> 00:30:12.009
The courage to change the things I can. Now that

563
00:30:12.029 --> 00:30:15.789
I've identified my problems, how can I change them? What

564
00:30:15.829 --> 00:30:19.890
do I need to do to change? And the wisdom

565
00:30:19.930 --> 00:30:23.380
to know the difference. The difference between what I can

566
00:30:23.440 --> 00:30:27.019
change and what I cannot change. You cannot change people.

567
00:30:27.259 --> 00:30:29.799
The only people that you can model and change are

568
00:30:29.900 --> 00:30:33.339
little babies by the time they're three. After they're three

569
00:30:33.359 --> 00:30:35.809
years old, you still tap at them and they tap

570
00:30:35.849 --> 00:30:38.210
you back. Oh, you got a bully on your hands.

571
00:30:38.690 --> 00:30:40.849
Good to journal thoughts in this process. There you go.

572
00:30:40.990 --> 00:30:44.529
Thank you, Mickey. Journaling. Write it down. Write the vision.

573
00:30:44.549 --> 00:30:48.180
Make it plain. It's something about writing. And you go

574
00:30:48.200 --> 00:30:50.200
back and you read that thing. You're like, oh, my God,

575
00:30:50.240 --> 00:30:54.480
what was I thinking? Speaking of which, this past, well, yesterday,

576
00:30:54.500 --> 00:30:57.210
it was just in me. I've been thinking about it.

577
00:30:57.640 --> 00:30:59.019
It was time for me to get rid of my

578
00:30:59.200 --> 00:31:02.910
old jewelry. And most of his costume jewelry anyway. And

579
00:31:02.970 --> 00:31:06.279
as I'm looking through my jewelry box, I'm like memories

580
00:31:06.319 --> 00:31:08.619
of stuff. But the main thing and I was in

581
00:31:08.660 --> 00:31:11.539
here in my room laughing out loud, like, what was

582
00:31:11.619 --> 00:31:15.509
I thinking when I purchased this? What was I? Yuck.

583
00:31:16.009 --> 00:31:20.390
It looked yuck. But I had to be honest with myself.

584
00:31:20.829 --> 00:31:25.420
Writing is therapeutic. Yes, ma'am. Yes, ma'am. For some people, yes. Yes.

585
00:31:26.059 --> 00:31:30.250
Sometimes talking things out, recording yourself, then going back, leaving it,

586
00:31:30.500 --> 00:31:32.440
and then go back and listen to what you were saying.

587
00:31:32.880 --> 00:31:34.980
Listen to the thoughts that were on your mind. You'd

588
00:31:35.019 --> 00:31:37.319
be surprised what you were thinking. Like, where did that

589
00:31:37.359 --> 00:31:39.519
come from? Just like I was doing the jewelry. What

590
00:31:39.559 --> 00:31:42.339
was I thinking? And I was looking for a jewelry today,

591
00:31:42.380 --> 00:31:44.809
and I wanted to put a pearl on. And I

592
00:31:44.869 --> 00:31:47.450
just bought this card, and there's a pearl on it.

593
00:31:47.450 --> 00:31:54.329
There are pearls on it. And it said, imitation. I

594
00:31:54.369 --> 00:31:57.390
can't afford a good pair of pearl earrings now. You

595
00:31:57.450 --> 00:32:00.890
all can afford it too. But it said imitation on

596
00:32:00.910 --> 00:32:05.089
the card. They look pretty. They look real. But they

597
00:32:05.130 --> 00:32:07.910
weren't real. And right in front of me, it said imitation.

598
00:32:08.299 --> 00:32:10.279
But I didn't see that. I saw the pearl. It

599
00:32:10.299 --> 00:32:13.259
looked shiny. It looked pretty. Oh, it was probably affordable.

600
00:32:13.500 --> 00:32:17.359
So let me get these. Man, y'all better stop. Y'all

601
00:32:17.380 --> 00:32:19.799
better stop. Go in your closet. And look at stuff

602
00:32:19.839 --> 00:32:23.890
you purchased. And you probably have thought like, what in

603
00:32:23.950 --> 00:32:28.410
the world? What was I thinking? I wear oversized clothes

604
00:32:28.450 --> 00:32:31.250
now because of the fact that this external hernia I have.

605
00:32:31.690 --> 00:32:34.190
I'm not wearing nothing tight to outline. I'm not pregnant.

606
00:32:34.589 --> 00:32:36.720
There's nothing to be happy about. This is an external

607
00:32:37.299 --> 00:32:41.539
surgical hernia. But because I've lost so much weight, my

608
00:32:41.599 --> 00:32:45.200
pants were falling to my hip bones. And I said,

609
00:32:45.259 --> 00:32:47.640
I got to go because I like this pair of pants.

610
00:32:48.000 --> 00:32:50.700
They're different colors and they're nice and they're dressy enough.

611
00:32:51.059 --> 00:32:53.000
I can wear them to a meeting. I can wear them,

612
00:32:53.400 --> 00:32:55.859
you know, to church or whatever. I can wear them someplace. Oh,

613
00:32:55.900 --> 00:32:58.839
I can wear them being comfortable. I love them. They're very,

614
00:32:59.119 --> 00:33:02.119
you know, dualistic. And so I had to go and

615
00:33:02.180 --> 00:33:05.220
I'm trying to find my pants that I've ordered from Amazon.

616
00:33:05.420 --> 00:33:07.509
And I had to get on my computer to go scrolling.

617
00:33:07.529 --> 00:33:08.289
And I didn't get it.

618
00:33:09.339 --> 00:33:10.619
I went back on my phone and I said, Lord,

619
00:33:10.660 --> 00:33:13.900
help me find these pants. You know, Amazon will show

620
00:33:13.920 --> 00:33:16.680
you what you've ordered, the last maybe 25 things you ordered.

621
00:33:16.700 --> 00:33:18.359
They didn't say, well, you've come to the end of

622
00:33:18.380 --> 00:33:20.259
your list. I said, no, I haven't. Help me find

623
00:33:20.279 --> 00:33:23.160
these pants. And I found them. So I've got a

624
00:33:23.180 --> 00:33:26.349
whole size lower. I'm not going to do that with

625
00:33:26.430 --> 00:33:27.589
all of my clothes. What?

626
00:33:27.710 --> 00:33:28.089
All right.

627
00:33:28.210 --> 00:33:30.069
Okay. All right. At least I didn't ask you to

628
00:33:30.109 --> 00:33:36.390
sew them. See what I have to live with? I

629
00:33:36.430 --> 00:33:38.460
can't make this stuff up, y'all. I'm not making this

630
00:33:38.480 --> 00:33:40.480
stuff up. Anyway, what do y'all want to talk about?

631
00:33:40.619 --> 00:33:41.809
I know most of you- Wait, well.

632
00:33:41.849 --> 00:33:44.869
Let me go into as far as healthy aging, right?

633
00:33:45.369 --> 00:33:46.349
Okay, go ahead. Go for it.

634
00:33:46.849 --> 00:33:49.569
On a nutritional side, guys, because we are what we

635
00:33:49.750 --> 00:33:52.730
eat as well. So the grogginess, you know what I'm saying?

636
00:33:52.759 --> 00:33:57.160
The tiredness, the processed foods that we are consuming, right?

637
00:33:57.700 --> 00:34:00.940
So vitamins wise, we have a vitamin named ashwagandha, which

638
00:34:01.000 --> 00:34:02.000
is good for calming.

639
00:34:02.400 --> 00:34:04.279
Not saying to rely.

640
00:34:04.000 --> 00:34:07.440
On ashwagandha to calm your nerves or anything like that,

641
00:34:07.599 --> 00:34:09.389
but it has its benefits, right?

642
00:34:09.909 --> 00:34:12.030
Okay. As well as drinking carrot juice.

643
00:34:12.090 --> 00:34:13.690
If you do not want to look like what you've

644
00:34:13.750 --> 00:34:16.510
been through, I suggest drinking carrot juice.

645
00:34:17.710 --> 00:34:20.289
It's like an aging backwards.

646
00:34:20.369 --> 00:34:25.449
Type of vibe, taking collagen, tightening the skin naturally.

647
00:34:24.760 --> 00:34:27.500
And stuff like that. And of course, moving your body.

648
00:34:27.559 --> 00:34:30.699
I feel like moving your body regardless is very therapeutic.

649
00:34:31.460 --> 00:34:36.329
Whether you're dancing in your room, working out, walking, jogging,

650
00:34:36.409 --> 00:34:37.530
whatever you want to do.

651
00:34:37.909 --> 00:34:41.949
Very therapeutic. Go outside. Don't stay in the house. Go outside.

652
00:34:42.409 --> 00:34:46.269
Experience nature. Try new things. Pottery.

653
00:34:46.849 --> 00:34:51.010
I don't know, a dance class, Zumba class, Pilates. Something

654
00:34:51.070 --> 00:34:54.320
that's taking your mind off. I know boxing helps me.

655
00:34:54.380 --> 00:34:56.619
I have to return back to that because that was

656
00:34:56.659 --> 00:35:00.019
like one of my top stress relievers, activity I did

657
00:35:00.159 --> 00:35:01.760
when I was stressed out and everything.

658
00:35:02.360 --> 00:35:05.800
But, oh, it skipped. She said boxing, y'all.

659
00:35:06.260 --> 00:35:09.409
Is vegetable oil and creamer bad?

660
00:35:09.949 --> 00:35:14.989
Like as a coffee, like put a vegetable oil and

661
00:35:15.030 --> 00:35:16.349
like creamer for your coffee.

662
00:35:16.849 --> 00:35:18.070
Vegetable oil is not good.

663
00:35:18.190 --> 00:35:20.980
If you're going to use that in any aspect, use

664
00:35:21.079 --> 00:35:22.760
either coconut oil or olive oil.

665
00:35:22.800 --> 00:35:25.880
Those are the most natural you could get or avocado.

666
00:35:25.920 --> 00:35:28.219
But it depends on if you're trying to lose weight,

667
00:35:28.239 --> 00:35:30.219
gain weight and stuff like that, what will be better

668
00:35:30.260 --> 00:35:30.599
for you.

669
00:35:31.340 --> 00:35:33.429
But because avocado is fatty.

670
00:35:34.070 --> 00:35:34.739
But it's a good one.

671
00:35:34.860 --> 00:35:37.269
It's a good fat, obviously. Fiber and all that.

672
00:35:37.750 --> 00:35:38.090
Amen.

673
00:35:38.590 --> 00:35:43.050
Last week, I went over my 30-day. I was reading

674
00:35:43.070 --> 00:35:46.230
the ingredients in the creamer this morning. Your creamer has

675
00:35:46.349 --> 00:35:47.989
vegetable oil in it? Oh.

676
00:35:48.829 --> 00:35:54.820
You might not want to. See, I'm dairy-free, so. Oh, wow.

677
00:35:55.260 --> 00:35:58.719
Well, thank God you're reading the ingredients. Amen. See?

678
00:35:59.159 --> 00:35:59.500
Yes.

679
00:36:00.000 --> 00:36:03.340
See? And you wonder where all this inflammation and all

680
00:36:03.380 --> 00:36:05.579
this nonsense comes up in your body and it just

681
00:36:05.659 --> 00:36:08.139
sits there. You got to do this, guys. We're not

682
00:36:08.179 --> 00:36:10.079
trying to make you lose weight, okay? Let me just

683
00:36:10.119 --> 00:36:12.940
take that out of the air. No, we want you healthy.

684
00:36:13.400 --> 00:36:16.280
We want you wealthier. We want you in your right mind.

685
00:36:16.809 --> 00:36:19.190
I want you personally, all of you all, every last

686
00:36:19.289 --> 00:36:23.690
one of you all, is latte-free creamer. Oh, wow. Oh, wow.

687
00:36:24.250 --> 00:36:26.750
I want all of you all to experience for once

688
00:36:26.809 --> 00:36:31.250
in your life the overflow of God. Your cup Running over.

689
00:36:31.690 --> 00:36:34.489
That's my prayer for all of y'all who've been faithful.

690
00:36:34.769 --> 00:36:38.789
Your cup runs over. You don't know what that's like.

691
00:36:38.909 --> 00:36:42.510
That's not no trickled, you know, oh, I played the lottery.

692
00:36:42.750 --> 00:36:45.389
I got the numbers. I got $ 500. No, that's not

693
00:36:45.449 --> 00:36:48.010
going into Rent-A-Center and they approve you for credit so

694
00:36:48.050 --> 00:36:51.309
you can go rent your furniture. No, that is not God.

695
00:36:51.750 --> 00:36:54.550
That's not your cup running over. Your cup running over.

696
00:36:54.590 --> 00:36:57.250
When you call your utility company and you say, you

697
00:36:57.289 --> 00:36:59.010
know what? I don't have it. I know the due

698
00:36:59.030 --> 00:37:03.159
date is tomorrow. I don't get paid to not customer

699
00:37:03.199 --> 00:37:05.679
of ours. We're going to waive that and we'll see

700
00:37:05.699 --> 00:37:11.440
you next month. That's God. That's God. We've been too

701
00:37:11.480 --> 00:37:16.530
much inundated. What's that? Naming and claiming and blabbing till

702
00:37:16.550 --> 00:37:20.250
you flab it. No, those things are not real. Fake

703
00:37:20.269 --> 00:37:23.429
it till you make it. Because what are you speaking

704
00:37:23.530 --> 00:37:24.389
in the answer? Oh, wait.

705
00:37:24.489 --> 00:37:25.429
Actually, that does help.

706
00:37:25.889 --> 00:37:26.489
What does help?

707
00:37:27.869 --> 00:37:29.829
Well, that does help sometimes because, you know, sometimes I

708
00:37:29.869 --> 00:37:31.449
got to fake it until I make it sometimes to

709
00:37:31.469 --> 00:37:32.309
get through certain situations.

710
00:37:32.349 --> 00:37:33.929
To get yourself out of things, yeah, but you don't

711
00:37:33.949 --> 00:37:35.989
live a life of that. I didn't know these things

712
00:37:36.030 --> 00:37:38.409
were going on until this morning. I looked at the

713
00:37:38.469 --> 00:37:43.550
other one and it has bioengineering things in it. Oh, Lord. Okay. Anastasia,

714
00:37:43.590 --> 00:37:45.630
do you have a Sprouts up there? Do you have

715
00:37:45.670 --> 00:37:48.269
a Sprouts store? Well, I don't think they do. No,

716
00:37:48.369 --> 00:37:51.610
I think they did Whole Foods. What's another one? Trader Joe's.

717
00:37:51.650 --> 00:37:53.869
I don't know if they have a Trader Joe's.

718
00:37:53.909 --> 00:37:55.070
Yeah, Trader Joe's is good.

719
00:37:55.550 --> 00:37:56.349
What you're saying, Trey?

720
00:37:56.969 --> 00:37:58.880
Mom's. It's called moms.

721
00:37:59.380 --> 00:38:01.079
Oh, I thought you were saying bombs. I was like, okay,

722
00:38:01.099 --> 00:38:02.179
everybody get on the table.

723
00:38:02.199 --> 00:38:03.239
Yeah.

724
00:38:03.260 --> 00:38:04.619
I think it's healthy.

725
00:38:05.059 --> 00:38:13.309
Food and, and, and, um, But I don't know if

726
00:38:13.329 --> 00:38:15.469
it's everywhere, so I'll just have to Google it.

727
00:38:15.849 --> 00:38:18.610
Well, when I was doing my vision board on Tuesday,

728
00:38:18.650 --> 00:38:21.789
the 8th, I took off a whole page because inflammation

729
00:38:21.869 --> 00:38:27.110
is gone. High blood pressure is gone. Diabetes is gone.

730
00:38:27.590 --> 00:38:33.059
I'm in the normal range. Foul gas is gone. Gone, gone, gone.

731
00:38:33.199 --> 00:38:39.460
And what did I implement at the 11th hour? Okra water. Now,

732
00:38:39.480 --> 00:38:44.630
I know before y'all say anything, it's a bit away. Okay. Okay.

733
00:38:45.329 --> 00:38:49.530
I don't know. All I can tell you is, okra

734
00:38:49.989 --> 00:38:51.869
water and i don't want to hear that you don't

735
00:38:51.889 --> 00:38:54.170
like okra i don't care i love okra but that's

736
00:38:54.190 --> 00:38:57.210
not great miss miss k was the one who told

737
00:38:57.250 --> 00:39:00.210
me also also one of my high school friends told

738
00:39:00.250 --> 00:39:03.690
me and i took it and i'm taking it six

739
00:39:03.820 --> 00:39:06.119
ounces a day for the rest of my life whole

740
00:39:06.159 --> 00:39:08.500
foods may be about the same this oh wow and

741
00:39:08.559 --> 00:39:10.440
yeah they always put the whole the good stuff way

742
00:39:10.500 --> 00:39:12.280
out where you can't get to it And you're so

743
00:39:12.320 --> 00:39:14.679
frustrated by the time you get there. I get it, sweetie,

744
00:39:14.699 --> 00:39:17.119
but I don't want you drinking nothing with vegetable oil

745
00:39:17.139 --> 00:39:17.380
in it.

746
00:39:17.420 --> 00:39:20.059
Well, Trader Joe's is really a scam, honestly.

747
00:39:20.579 --> 00:39:24.269
Oh, okay. Well, you're telling me something new. Well, I

748
00:39:25.190 --> 00:39:27.630
know we went through some stuff here with ours here,

749
00:39:27.730 --> 00:39:28.750
but okay.

750
00:39:29.010 --> 00:39:31.019
Well, I only say that. that because my thing is

751
00:39:31.039 --> 00:39:32.179
so delayed right now.

752
00:39:32.659 --> 00:39:36.019
What thing? Oh, your phone. I mean, your broadcast. That's okay, babe.

753
00:39:36.159 --> 00:39:41.800
We got you. It's okay. But okra water, okay? And

754
00:39:41.840 --> 00:39:43.420
what you do is get you a couple of stalks

755
00:39:43.440 --> 00:39:46.210
of okra, real okra. Put it in a mason jar.

756
00:39:46.730 --> 00:39:49.380
Let it sit for 24 hours. Now, you're going to

757
00:39:49.420 --> 00:39:51.639
probably want to get the, you know, strain it. Strain

758
00:39:51.679 --> 00:39:53.849
it the next day. Get the pulp, the pulp out

759
00:39:53.889 --> 00:39:55.809
of it. What were the things you just mentioned to drink?

760
00:39:55.849 --> 00:39:56.170
Okay.

761
00:39:56.469 --> 00:39:59.510
He's getting ready. Oh, okra water. Hang on. Let me.

762
00:39:59.929 --> 00:40:00.809
My thing's so delayed.

763
00:40:00.849 --> 00:40:03.489
I can't even hear nobody. And I can't hear you

764
00:40:03.550 --> 00:40:03.849
out here.

765
00:40:03.869 --> 00:40:07.289
Right. Okay. Yeah. So, about the drinking.

766
00:40:07.510 --> 00:40:08.590
Okra water?

767
00:40:08.869 --> 00:40:09.090
Yeah.

768
00:40:09.110 --> 00:40:09.650
Well, no.

769
00:40:09.849 --> 00:40:12.989
Hallelujah. Praise God for the good medical report. Yes. 40

770
00:40:12.989 --> 00:40:17.920
pounds lighter before my birthday. Woo. Woo. Okra water is

771
00:40:17.960 --> 00:40:19.900
what you recommended to drink. Just now.

772
00:40:19.960 --> 00:40:20.159
Yeah.

773
00:40:20.260 --> 00:40:20.820
Okra water.

774
00:40:21.320 --> 00:40:23.000
I will tell you, get you about three or four

775
00:40:23.059 --> 00:40:25.900
stalks of it. Put it in water in a mason jar.

776
00:40:26.219 --> 00:40:28.000
Leave it out. Leave it. No.

777
00:40:28.179 --> 00:40:29.019
Put it in the fridge.

778
00:40:29.300 --> 00:40:31.780
Put it in the fridge for 24 hours. I would

779
00:40:31.820 --> 00:40:34.639
suggest that you, if you're not an okra lover, go

780
00:40:34.659 --> 00:40:38.590
ahead and drain the pulp that's in there. Strain it, rather.

781
00:40:38.610 --> 00:40:40.760
Strain it. And then go ahead.

782
00:40:41.630 --> 00:40:45.010
You can eat the okra out. I mean, your okra.

783
00:40:45.289 --> 00:40:50.889
Not raw okra. It doesn't matter. Thank you. Thank you.

784
00:40:50.929 --> 00:40:53.449
Thank you. And it was great. Even better as my

785
00:40:53.789 --> 00:40:56.929
both medical professionals were looking at the numbers and they're like, well,

786
00:40:56.969 --> 00:40:58.550
Miss Gray, I don't know how you did it. I said,

787
00:40:58.570 --> 00:41:00.030
I didn't. I listened.

788
00:41:00.489 --> 00:41:01.969
And Miss Kay said carrot juice.

789
00:41:02.409 --> 00:41:04.349
You mentioned carrot juice as well.

790
00:41:04.429 --> 00:41:06.820
Sea moss, guys, if you want to age backwards, it

791
00:41:06.880 --> 00:41:09.099
has about like 99 vitamins in it. So you don't

792
00:41:09.119 --> 00:41:10.940
need to take a multivitamin. You can just take sea moss.

793
00:41:11.860 --> 00:41:13.980
Just find a raw vendor.

794
00:41:15.530 --> 00:41:19.800
Go to your flea market your farmer's market Go to

795
00:41:19.820 --> 00:41:22.750
your farmer's market and get your fresh vegetables from there.

796
00:41:23.130 --> 00:41:25.750
And fruit. I mean, I know you don't. I was

797
00:41:25.789 --> 00:41:28.530
on the phone with my limb loss connection group out

798
00:41:28.610 --> 00:41:30.889
in Canada. And I had to just share with them.

799
00:41:30.909 --> 00:41:32.429
They kept saying, what's the good news? You got any

800
00:41:32.449 --> 00:41:36.559
good news? And, you know, in the world of amputeeism,

801
00:41:36.619 --> 00:41:39.000
you know, most of the time that's laden with diabetes.

802
00:41:39.019 --> 00:41:41.780
That's laden with, you know, heart issues and all kinds

803
00:41:41.840 --> 00:41:45.079
of stuff. And we just had a very productive meeting today.

804
00:41:45.320 --> 00:41:48.909
And I just told them about okra water. Like, can

805
00:41:48.949 --> 00:41:51.130
you put that in the group chat and tell us

806
00:41:51.170 --> 00:41:53.809
how we to take that? And I did it. Blood pressure.

807
00:41:53.869 --> 00:41:54.590
Your sugar.

808
00:41:54.610 --> 00:41:55.590
Blood sugar.

809
00:41:55.610 --> 00:41:59.289
That's the benefits of getting rid of diabetes unless you

810
00:41:59.309 --> 00:42:00.750
have the curable one because you have what?

811
00:42:00.769 --> 00:42:03.510
Which one was it? One of them is not curable. Yeah,

812
00:42:03.530 --> 00:42:05.510
type one is not curable. Yes.

813
00:42:05.730 --> 00:42:07.929
So it can reverse it as well. And of course,

814
00:42:08.090 --> 00:42:09.670
eating a balanced diet.

815
00:42:09.750 --> 00:42:13.010
And prayer. Still looking for watercress. No one seems to

816
00:42:13.050 --> 00:42:16.949
have it. Watercress. It's like a lettuce, isn't it? Isn't

817
00:42:16.969 --> 00:42:21.590
it like a lettuce? Watercress lettuce? I'm not sure. I know. Wait,

818
00:42:21.610 --> 00:42:23.230
look it up. Look it up here. Look it up there.

819
00:42:23.530 --> 00:42:27.010
We got two minutes. We got two minutes. Talk to us, y'all.

820
00:42:27.050 --> 00:42:29.809
Talk to us. Where did you go? You don't know

821
00:42:29.829 --> 00:42:30.469
my phone. Move.

822
00:42:30.789 --> 00:42:31.329
No, please.

823
00:42:31.369 --> 00:42:31.530
No.

824
00:42:31.909 --> 00:42:34.280
Okay. Go there. And there it is. Why don't you

825
00:42:34.300 --> 00:42:38.380
use Android? Excuse me. See what I learned? I wouldn't know. See?

826
00:42:38.400 --> 00:42:42.980
I wouldn't know. I mean, iPhones. And I'm like, leave

827
00:42:43.000 --> 00:42:43.239
me alone.

828
00:42:43.300 --> 00:42:44.139
Oh, it's a vegetable.

829
00:42:44.320 --> 00:42:46.159
It's a vegetable. Yeah, it looks like lettuce. Okay, there

830
00:42:46.179 --> 00:42:46.369
it is.

831
00:42:46.840 --> 00:42:47.619
Yes, high fiber.

832
00:42:47.679 --> 00:42:51.039
Make sure you guys have 25 grams per day. Okay,

833
00:42:51.099 --> 00:42:54.900
makes sense. 25 grams of fiber per day to help

834
00:42:54.920 --> 00:42:57.920
with your digestive system. Because again, we are what we eat.

835
00:42:58.360 --> 00:43:00.170
And you're supposed to go to the bathroom every day.

836
00:43:00.210 --> 00:43:03.349
Yes. So if you're not- And do number two every day.

837
00:43:03.469 --> 00:43:07.289
I was a constipated child, believe it or not. Yeah,

838
00:43:07.329 --> 00:43:09.309
my mom. I had to go real raw and stuff.

839
00:43:09.369 --> 00:43:11.820
I just have to be real here. I want you

840
00:43:11.860 --> 00:43:14.389
all healthy. It's not about the losing of the weight,

841
00:43:14.820 --> 00:43:17.219
but the weight has nothing to hold on to. It

842
00:43:17.239 --> 00:43:20.400
don't have the unhealthy, the negative and all that if

843
00:43:20.440 --> 00:43:22.460
it's not there, if you're not eating that stuff. Or

844
00:43:22.500 --> 00:43:25.579
if you're taking supplements, vegetables, healthy stuff on top of

845
00:43:25.619 --> 00:43:28.019
that to flush it. But you're supposed to go to

846
00:43:28.039 --> 00:43:29.260
the bathroom every day.

847
00:43:29.280 --> 00:43:33.019
Remember, 25 grams of fiber per day.

848
00:43:33.579 --> 00:43:35.639
So in every meal, you need to be having some

849
00:43:35.659 --> 00:43:37.780
type of fiber. Which is vegetable, right?

850
00:43:37.800 --> 00:43:39.940
Kiwis, apples, vegetables.

851
00:43:40.159 --> 00:43:42.019
Oh, did y'all do the Rosh Hashanah? Did you do

852
00:43:42.059 --> 00:43:46.400
your apples and honey? At that time this weekend, it's

853
00:43:46.440 --> 00:43:48.409
not too late. Get you some apples, slice it up,

854
00:43:48.429 --> 00:43:50.989
put some honey and ask God, please allow me to have.

855
00:43:51.050 --> 00:43:54.110
This is a happy new year. Happy new year. And

856
00:43:54.130 --> 00:43:56.769
this is the time. And that's our time. I'm going

857
00:43:56.789 --> 00:43:58.750
to see you next week. Thank you all for holding

858
00:43:58.769 --> 00:44:01.329
the space for me tonight. Thank you for loving us.

859
00:44:01.369 --> 00:44:03.070
Thank you for praying for us. But we're going to

860
00:44:03.110 --> 00:44:05.840
see you next week. And y'all better be safe. And

861
00:44:05.880 --> 00:44:08.800
you better take care. Until then, music!

862
00:44:09.889 --> 00:44:17.190
Music Music Music Music

863
00:44:19.530 --> 00:44:37.199
Music so so
