20
00:01:55.760 --> 00:02:00.359
don't like how I was fifteen minutes ago, fifteen minutes ago.

21
00:02:00.840 --> 00:02:02.920
Let me listen to this show tonight. Let me listen

22
00:02:02.920 --> 00:02:06.079
to this podcast tonight, because maybe something will go off

23
00:02:06.120 --> 00:02:09.840
in my brain and I'll make the commitment to change.

24
00:02:10.280 --> 00:02:13.479

39
00:03:03.840 --> 00:03:06.240

been with her every step of the way. All the

63
00:04:23.040 --> 00:04:25.680
money you don't charge just too. So yeah, I'm going.

64
00:04:25.759 --> 00:04:27.600
And if you got a little refund check for me,

65
00:04:27.920 --> 00:04:30.240

66
00:04:30.279 --> 00:04:35.439

00:05:29.000 --> 00:05:32.839
boy and we're calling it the limited Edition. And I'm

84
00:05:32.879 --> 00:05:36.959
just so glad that the company is in in in

85
00:05:37.000 --> 00:05:39.079
the States and everything else, and there are more companies,

86
00:05:39.120 --> 00:05:41.839
there's more businesses in the United States, and that's part

87
00:05:41.839 --> 00:05:45.560
of my prayer that America's businesses come back home. You

88
00:05:45.680 --> 00:05:47.839
come back and you land. I don't care how you

89
00:05:47.959 --> 00:05:50.439
got here. You just get back here and let's do

90
00:05:50.600 --> 00:05:54.279
cars everything else and stop balking and stuff that's going on. Guys,

91
00:05:55.600 --> 00:05:58.319
prayers are being answered. You may not like it. It

92
00:05:58.399 --> 00:06:00.480
may not be your prayer point, but it's mine. And

93
00:06:00.519 --> 00:06:04.160
I know mine goes through this roof, through the powers

94
00:06:04.160 --> 00:06:08.560
of Cubolus flowers above, and to the feet of Jesus

95
00:06:08.639 --> 00:06:11.959
Christ into the throne room. I know my prayer gets through.

96
00:06:12.000 --> 00:06:14.839
Can't speak about everybody else, but I know mine do.

97
00:06:15.040 --> 00:06:17.480
So that's why I set it. I write the prayers

98
00:06:17.519 --> 00:06:21.240
down and I had them on this this topic on

99
00:06:21.319 --> 00:06:25.120
my setting It Straight page on Facebook. I shared with

100
00:06:25.800 --> 00:06:29.879
a prophet, Uh Shanika. She's it ends with me. She's

101
00:06:29.959 --> 00:06:32.360
changed the name of her ministry because it ends with me.

102
00:06:32.639 --> 00:06:36.199
But I had to go and I checked my vision

103
00:06:36.240 --> 00:06:38.199
board today. So we'll talk about that in a little

104
00:06:38.199 --> 00:06:40.519
bit and we're gonna go back to topic. Don't don't

105
00:06:40.519 --> 00:06:42.800
think we I'm I don't know what we need to

106
00:06:42.800 --> 00:06:46.120
be talking about. Okay, in writing, I know, But I

107
00:06:46.240 --> 00:06:48.639
have to tell you these things because you have. I

108
00:06:48.720 --> 00:06:52.480
have to tell the goodness of God. And in this

109
00:06:52.560 --> 00:06:55.319
one that she's like, you know, the wealth transfer is

110
00:06:55.360 --> 00:06:59.920
happening as we speak. It is happening. And for those

111
00:07:00.040 --> 00:07:02.360
who believe it, I'm telling you you got to look

112
00:07:02.399 --> 00:07:04.160
to God. But what you don't want to make the

113
00:07:04.199 --> 00:07:07.120
mistake of is say, oh, it's gonna come from here.

114
00:07:07.279 --> 00:07:09.000
Oh no, she owes me money. It's got to come

115
00:07:09.040 --> 00:07:10.959
from No no, no, no, no, no no no no. You're

116
00:07:11.000 --> 00:07:11.800
boxing God.

117
00:07:11.879 --> 00:07:12.120
God.

118
00:07:12.360 --> 00:07:14.839
You're telling God. If it don't come from here that

119
00:07:15.000 --> 00:07:17.560
I can see, then I know I'm not gonna get it.

120
00:07:17.680 --> 00:07:19.920
No no, no, no, take that off the this don't

121
00:07:19.959 --> 00:07:21.800
even put you. Don't fix your lips to say it.

122
00:07:21.839 --> 00:07:24.759
And if you said it, repent now in the name

123
00:07:24.800 --> 00:07:27.480
of Jesus. Where our audience at I know y'all out there.

124
00:07:27.519 --> 00:07:31.279
Come on, everybody, come on in, come on in. But anyway, no,

125
00:07:31.439 --> 00:07:34.920
we're not doing that. You've got to trust God and

126
00:07:35.000 --> 00:07:38.560
take the handles off of it. Nowhere in scripture does

127
00:07:38.600 --> 00:07:40.720
he say, now, now, you tell me what you need. No,

128
00:07:40.839 --> 00:07:44.079
I judge you by your heart. I know what your

129
00:07:44.199 --> 00:07:48.079
needs are. I've made you. It's just like being a parent.

130
00:07:48.480 --> 00:07:51.639
I know my children, and even though they're twenty three

131
00:07:51.720 --> 00:07:54.079
years old and thirty years old, thirty one years old,

132
00:07:54.199 --> 00:07:57.879
I know my kids. I know my dog. I know you.

133
00:07:57.920 --> 00:08:00.519
I didn't create my dog, but I know her. I've Hatterson.

134
00:08:00.680 --> 00:08:03.319
She was taken from her mom. She was weaned from

135
00:08:03.319 --> 00:08:07.959
her mom. I know you. So please don't don't don't

136
00:08:08.000 --> 00:08:11.959
get this twisted. Hey get even eld. The cake to

137
00:08:12.040 --> 00:08:14.839
the sea is in the house, Thank you Lord. Amen,

138
00:08:15.120 --> 00:08:17.839
So don't take don't do that to God. Don't do

139
00:08:17.920 --> 00:08:20.079
that to God. Say whatever you can do. So that's

140
00:08:20.079 --> 00:08:21.800
why I want you to watch. Go and look up

141
00:08:23.920 --> 00:08:26.680
on my setting it Straight page. If you've not joined it,

administrators over but mainly Tray is she sees you coming in.

144
00:08:33.159 --> 00:08:37.440
We will admit you in be playing, don't don't be playing.

145
00:08:37.440 --> 00:08:40.679
We don't ask for comments in there. If we don't

146
00:08:40.720 --> 00:08:43.159
do that, we just want you to see what we're posting. Okay,

147
00:08:43.200 --> 00:08:46.960
So Prophet Shanika and I pulled my Today's the eighth,

148
00:08:47.000 --> 00:08:50.000
the eighth of the month. Every thirty days, I get

149
00:08:50.000 --> 00:08:52.159
to look at my vision board and I get to

150
00:08:52.279 --> 00:09:02.240
check off how he's blessed. I had eighty one supernatural miracles, manifestations, healings, unbelievables,

151
00:09:02.320 --> 00:09:05.840
eighty one things that I've asked for on that vision board.

152
00:09:05.840 --> 00:09:07.960
And yes, you go back and you check, you recheck

153
00:09:08.039 --> 00:09:10.360
things off if it happened, if I sold the book,

154
00:09:10.759 --> 00:09:13.879
I'm checking that off. Yeah, so you keep going back

155
00:09:13.879 --> 00:09:16.200
over it, that's what you do, and you keep counting them.

156
00:09:16.399 --> 00:09:18.840
But I added the decrease, and there was some neat

157
00:09:19.000 --> 00:09:21.200
decrees that she has. And I'm gonna say this briefly

158
00:09:21.240 --> 00:09:24.120
and then we're gonna go on to tonight's show topic.

159
00:09:24.159 --> 00:09:26.320
But this is what I did. Let's see if that's

160
00:09:26.320 --> 00:09:33.200
the first one, fourteen, ten, thirteen, thirteen decrees. Okay, you

161
00:09:33.360 --> 00:09:37.080
decree that your lack is over, God's abundance will flow

162
00:09:37.120 --> 00:09:40.960
into every area of my life, decree that your hands

163
00:09:41.000 --> 00:09:44.519
are trusted to be stored over all that God releases

164
00:09:44.600 --> 00:09:46.080
into your life. Now, I see this is where we

165
00:09:46.159 --> 00:09:48.720
got to stop for a minute, because I know everybody

166
00:09:48.720 --> 00:09:51.320
in twenty twenty, we got all the stimulus money and

167
00:09:51.360 --> 00:09:55.320
everything else. Rent was forgiven, rent back, rent was paid,

168
00:09:55.600 --> 00:09:57.679
and all that kind of stuff to bring the landlords

169
00:09:57.759 --> 00:10:00.120
up to speed up and bring you as well. Well.

170
00:10:00.440 --> 00:10:05.960
But guess what, how can you expect to be blessed? Well,

171
00:10:06.000 --> 00:10:10.120
you don't know how to manage money. The COVID didn't

172
00:10:10.120 --> 00:10:12.480
take away the fact that you were behind in your rent,

173
00:10:13.679 --> 00:10:16.240
and prior to COVID that you were behind in your rent,

174
00:10:17.159 --> 00:10:19.720
and you paid your rent late. You paid your rent

175
00:10:19.759 --> 00:10:21.840
when you want to. Sometimes you act like, well, they

176
00:10:21.879 --> 00:10:25.200
got money, they got other properties. They don't miss that. No,

177
00:10:25.360 --> 00:10:28.679
see that attitude, Your attitude did not some of y'all

178
00:10:29.000 --> 00:10:32.200
attitude did not change in twenty twenty. You think somebody

179
00:10:32.279 --> 00:10:36.159
owe you something, No, you need to work. You need

180
00:10:36.200 --> 00:10:39.200
to work unless you're unable to work. And then you

181
00:10:39.279 --> 00:10:42.000
got a whole battery of testing and proof that you

182
00:10:42.120 --> 00:10:44.879
have to be able to nail that. Okay, So there

183
00:10:44.879 --> 00:10:47.360
are times, I mean, y'all are nice people. I get it.

184
00:10:47.559 --> 00:10:49.559
You give folks to shirt up your back, but you

185
00:10:49.600 --> 00:10:52.559
can't manage money. So how can you expect God to

186
00:10:52.639 --> 00:10:56.600
bless you with one hundred thousand dollars annual career and

187
00:10:56.639 --> 00:11:02.159
you can't even manage three thousand dollars a month? So

188
00:11:02.200 --> 00:11:05.360
if you want to be well, to do well off,

189
00:11:05.399 --> 00:11:08.240
however you describe it, you need to go and learn

190
00:11:08.320 --> 00:11:11.480
money management. Learn what money is supposed to be like,

191
00:11:11.960 --> 00:11:15.799
understand paying bills and not being late. Clean up your credit.

192
00:11:15.879 --> 00:11:18.840
There's all kinds of credit repairing stuff, repairing stuff out there.

193
00:11:19.000 --> 00:11:22.360
You could talk to these credit bureaus yourself. You could

194
00:11:22.399 --> 00:11:25.279
ask them send me a free copy of my credit report,

195
00:11:25.519 --> 00:11:28.440
and you challenge what's on there. After so many years

196
00:11:28.440 --> 00:11:31.000
that stuff supposed to roll off. Guess what, there's just

197
00:11:31.000 --> 00:11:33.279
probably a few people that do that, So you got

198
00:11:33.279 --> 00:11:37.240
to remind them you don't even do that. So no, no,

199
00:11:37.360 --> 00:11:39.919
God's not gonna know. And those of you, you know,

200
00:11:40.080 --> 00:11:42.799
I'm not talking to our faithful for you and nor

201
00:11:43.000 --> 00:11:45.519
my co hosts here, but there's some of y'all out

202
00:11:45.519 --> 00:11:47.720
there that old people money and you act like, you know,

203
00:11:48.000 --> 00:11:50.559
why pay it when I get ready? Oh okay, but see,

204
00:11:50.679 --> 00:11:53.679
you think you're hurting me, You're not hurting me. Kiss

205
00:11:53.679 --> 00:11:56.559
who's checking the list? And more than checking it twice,

206
00:11:56.679 --> 00:11:59.519
because God don't check it twice, unlike Sala Claus. God

207
00:11:59.559 --> 00:12:01.960
don't check it twice once He look and you're not

208
00:12:02.039 --> 00:12:07.320
being You're not in a compliance. You're erased. It's erased.

209
00:12:08.240 --> 00:12:11.600
He still love you, but he can't bless you. So

210
00:12:11.679 --> 00:12:14.720
let's go back to the degrees. That my hands be

211
00:12:14.799 --> 00:12:18.120
trusted to be to steward all that God releases into

212
00:12:18.159 --> 00:12:22.000
my life. I decree that I'm surrounded by those who bless,

213
00:12:22.559 --> 00:12:29.159
uplift and support me. That's a whole two shows right there.

214
00:12:29.279 --> 00:12:31.799
Because there are people who don't support you. They just

215
00:12:31.879 --> 00:12:34.000
in't your life to be nosy, They ain't your life

216
00:12:34.000 --> 00:12:36.720
to be messy. Some of them are monitoring spirits. The

217
00:12:36.759 --> 00:12:39.200
devil set them to keep you off course. And I'm

218
00:12:39.200 --> 00:12:41.360
gonna give you one clue as to who those people

219
00:12:41.440 --> 00:12:44.600
could be. The ones say well you know what, so Trey,

220
00:12:44.639 --> 00:12:47.320
what you doing now? What are you working at now? Well,

221
00:12:47.360 --> 00:12:50.720
I'm still working with it. You're still working with the community.

222
00:12:51.039 --> 00:12:54.000
What's advocacy? What kind of money you make it? There?

223
00:12:54.000 --> 00:12:56.200
You go, don't even talk to that's could be at bel,

224
00:12:56.360 --> 00:12:58.720
but you don't talk to it. I'mbel did you get

225
00:12:58.720 --> 00:13:01.840
that peacn pie? Is it? Ready to just just take

226
00:13:01.879 --> 00:13:04.799
her off? Just don't because she don't support you. She

227
00:13:04.919 --> 00:13:08.120
never did for some reason, she don't like you. I've

228
00:13:08.159 --> 00:13:11.320
shared the story with you when I was adopted and

229
00:13:11.039 --> 00:13:14.360
my dad's twin sister was Jehovah witness now, but they

230
00:13:14.399 --> 00:13:16.960
had their little gin and tonic parties. She would come

231
00:13:16.960 --> 00:13:19.039
and every time she thought the spare room was hers,

232
00:13:19.080 --> 00:13:20.639
and then she came one day. I guess she didn't

233
00:13:20.639 --> 00:13:23.200
hear my dad tell her we got a baby. She

234
00:13:23.320 --> 00:13:25.759
come in in the cribb it's all the nursery. She said, well,

235
00:13:25.799 --> 00:13:28.960
who is that? And she's hated me ever since. She's

236
00:13:29.080 --> 00:13:31.799
gone now and she's the last to go, meanest person

237
00:13:31.840 --> 00:13:35.480
in the world, last to go anyway. Okay, here we go.

238
00:13:35.600 --> 00:13:38.639
All right, let's see say that I'm surrounded by those

239
00:13:38.679 --> 00:13:42.879
who bless, bless uplift me and support me. All leeches

240
00:13:43.080 --> 00:13:46.200
decree and these are declarations you're saying out of your mouth.

241
00:13:46.679 --> 00:13:50.399
You're saying, I decree and declare that all leeches are removed.

242
00:13:50.480 --> 00:13:53.279
I decree that every plan of the enemy. To drain me,

243
00:13:53.720 --> 00:14:00.240
to distract me, or to destroy me is null and voided. No,

244
00:14:00.480 --> 00:14:04.399
and boy, you've heard the scripture. The kingdom suffereth violence,

245
00:14:04.440 --> 00:14:07.519
and the violence takes it by force. This is by force.

246
00:14:08.639 --> 00:14:11.600
This is what this means. This is how we pray. Now,

247
00:14:11.799 --> 00:14:13.759
so you leach it off of me, you drop off

248
00:14:13.799 --> 00:14:15.799
and you now you know, I know this is gonna

249
00:14:15.799 --> 00:14:18.679
shock a lot of y'all, but I'm a prayer warrior.

250
00:14:18.960 --> 00:14:21.039
I'm just gonna give you that hint. You don't need

251
00:14:21.080 --> 00:14:27.039
to live, my enemies, you don't need to live. I'm

252
00:14:27.080 --> 00:14:29.559
gonna say it right there. I know I've shocked everybody. Misty,

253
00:14:29.600 --> 00:14:31.600
if you're driving, please just pull over for a minute.

254
00:14:31.600 --> 00:14:33.360
And don't want you to, you know, go off the

255
00:14:33.440 --> 00:14:35.399
run off the side of the road. They just pull off.

256
00:14:35.600 --> 00:14:41.159
They want to shock you there. Anyway. I decree that riches, health, peace,

257
00:14:41.240 --> 00:14:45.799
and divine strength of my inheritance. And I also added

258
00:14:45.919 --> 00:14:49.919
riches and wealth second Chronicles, Chapter one. That's conversation between

259
00:14:49.960 --> 00:14:53.720
Solomon and God riches and wealth. So again, I decree

260
00:14:53.720 --> 00:14:59.200
that riches, health, peace, wealth, and divine strength are my inheritance.

261
00:15:01.039 --> 00:15:05.720
I decree that God's favor opens doors that no man

262
00:15:05.799 --> 00:15:09.519
can shut, and opportunities flow to me like a river.

263
00:15:10.279 --> 00:15:13.799
Not my education, not my last name, not who I

264
00:15:13.879 --> 00:15:18.000
know in government, none of that. Know that God, God's

265
00:15:18.039 --> 00:15:22.320
favor opens doors and shut them that needs to be shut,

266
00:15:22.360 --> 00:15:25.360
and keep them closed so that no man, that scripture,

267
00:15:25.879 --> 00:15:30.960
no man can open them. Okay, I that opportunities flow

268
00:15:31.039 --> 00:15:33.759
to me like a river. I can't tell you how

269
00:15:33.759 --> 00:15:36.399
many times this this past week and a half. Last week,

270
00:15:36.639 --> 00:15:41.320
I turned down being a grant writer, and I already

271
00:15:41.320 --> 00:15:44.440
retired from working with the Department of Probation and Correction.

272
00:15:44.559 --> 00:15:47.759
And I got three calls. Already, You ain't nobody called

273
00:15:47.799 --> 00:15:50.559
me all year, just as I'm retiring. Then I get

274
00:15:50.600 --> 00:15:52.919
three calls and I have to tell them, let you

275
00:15:52.960 --> 00:15:55.759
don't have the new list out yet, but I've retired.

276
00:15:55.799 --> 00:15:57.399
They're like, well, can you tell me what you would

277
00:15:57.399 --> 00:16:02.200
have charged? I said, I'm still the cheapest intent. And

278
00:16:02.279 --> 00:16:04.879
I thought about it for a brief minute, and I said, naw,

279
00:16:05.399 --> 00:16:08.679
I'm good. I'm not going back. I decree that I

280
00:16:08.759 --> 00:16:12.919
walk in wisdom, discernment, and alignment with my kingdom assignment.

281
00:16:13.639 --> 00:16:16.679
I decreed that I will not forget God's abundance, and

282
00:16:16.720 --> 00:16:21.759
that my heart remains grateful and humble and steadfast. Now

283
00:16:21.919 --> 00:16:23.919
you know, people go and they play the lottery. Me

284
00:16:24.000 --> 00:16:26.120
and let me get into somebody's mailbox for a minute.

285
00:16:26.120 --> 00:16:28.200
They go and play the lottery. You just gotta be real.

286
00:16:28.720 --> 00:16:30.960
I played it one time with one of my spiritual daughters,

287
00:16:31.000 --> 00:16:33.639
and I felt so guilty doing it. But it was

288
00:16:33.679 --> 00:16:35.960
like a trillion dollars. And I'm like, you know what,

289
00:16:35.960 --> 00:16:38.440
what God forgive me. I'm gonna ask for forgive this

290
00:16:38.559 --> 00:16:40.480
on the front end. I'm gonna ask for forgive this

291
00:16:40.639 --> 00:16:41.360
on the backhead.

292
00:16:41.559 --> 00:16:42.159
They had the.

293
00:16:42.080 --> 00:16:44.360
Nervous say, okay, what numbers would I play? You know,

294
00:16:44.600 --> 00:16:45.919
I don't know how to do this stuff. I mean,

295
00:16:45.960 --> 00:16:48.559
I'm standing in the store with the little pencil like, okay,

296
00:16:48.559 --> 00:16:49.039
what do I do?

297
00:16:49.120 --> 00:16:49.279
Now?

298
00:16:49.360 --> 00:16:51.879
What do I do? And if you know? And I'm like,

299
00:16:53.320 --> 00:16:56.360
and people do win it. They win the one hundred dollars,

300
00:16:56.480 --> 00:16:59.320
forty dollars and stuff, and they go quickly and spend

301
00:16:59.360 --> 00:17:03.159
it whatever it needs to be applied to. But that's

302
00:17:03.320 --> 00:17:07.400
not that's not what folks who are wealthy and will

303
00:17:07.440 --> 00:17:14.440
all do because their bills already paid, they look to debt.

304
00:17:14.480 --> 00:17:17.480
They handle debt differently than we do than those of

305
00:17:17.559 --> 00:17:21.079
us who are living paycheck to paycheck. They handled it.

306
00:17:21.160 --> 00:17:23.720
Talk to look at rich dad, poor dad. Read that

307
00:17:23.759 --> 00:17:27.279
book again. You know, listen, look, I know we don't

308
00:17:27.319 --> 00:17:30.079
like Elon Musk, we don't like Warren Buffett, we don't

309
00:17:30.160 --> 00:17:33.119
like Bill Gates. But check out some of their comments,

310
00:17:33.160 --> 00:17:35.559
the way they look at money and how they save,

311
00:17:35.640 --> 00:17:39.160
and what books they read. Steve Harvey had to jump

312
00:17:39.200 --> 00:17:40.880
in that pool and say, oh my God, I need

313
00:17:40.960 --> 00:17:47.039
the reading six books a month on how to handle things. Okay,

314
00:17:47.279 --> 00:17:51.759
I decree that that what God has prepared for me manifestfully,

315
00:17:51.839 --> 00:17:55.559
and his perfect timing and his perfect timing. And we

316
00:17:55.640 --> 00:17:58.880
talked about that before. There's a timing to God. It's

317
00:17:58.920 --> 00:18:01.799
not going to happen when you wanted to do and

318
00:18:01.839 --> 00:18:04.160
when you feel you need it. He may not come

319
00:18:04.200 --> 00:18:06.519
when you want to, but He is always on time.

320
00:18:06.880 --> 00:18:09.640
That's a song, and that's scripture. He said, don't worry,

321
00:18:09.720 --> 00:18:12.440
I'm coming, And there's scriptures in the Old Testament. Whether

322
00:18:12.440 --> 00:18:15.759
the angel was caught up because the demons tried to

323
00:18:15.960 --> 00:18:19.480
was stopping him to deliver the prayer request, it's in

324
00:18:19.559 --> 00:18:23.720
the word and that's real. Then that was not gonna

325
00:18:23.759 --> 00:18:25.880
let it just flow. He's gonna he's watching because he's

326
00:18:25.880 --> 00:18:28.680
flying to and fro to see who he can mess with.

327
00:18:29.200 --> 00:18:34.640
And his workers of iniquity are doing the same thing. Okay, uh,

328
00:18:34.880 --> 00:18:38.319
perfect timing and uh and glory to his mighty name.

329
00:18:38.359 --> 00:18:41.640
It's ten of them. And I went and I added glass,

330
00:18:41.680 --> 00:18:44.160
you know, after I checked off mine, I added these

331
00:18:44.240 --> 00:18:47.799
ten prayer points, these declarations to my prayer list, my

332
00:18:47.880 --> 00:18:50.799
prayer point, my vision board. And I was just I

333
00:18:50.799 --> 00:18:52.839
felt so like a little kid, like ooh, I know

334
00:18:52.960 --> 00:18:54.920
God's get rid of the bless I know He's getting

335
00:18:54.960 --> 00:18:56.960
rid of the blessed. And then I got some text

336
00:18:57.039 --> 00:19:01.400
messages and some confirmation stuff didn't expect, and I was like, whoah, God,

337
00:19:01.440 --> 00:19:04.200
you already doing it. You're already doing it. Let me

338
00:19:04.319 --> 00:19:06.039
take care of your people. Let me take care of

339
00:19:06.039 --> 00:19:08.279
that which I'm ordained to take care of. Let me

340
00:19:08.319 --> 00:19:11.000
say this prayer, let me make this phone call, let

341
00:19:11.000 --> 00:19:13.119
me do this, let me sing a new song to you.

342
00:19:13.440 --> 00:19:15.359
I know you got my back. I know you know

343
00:19:15.440 --> 00:19:17.039
what I need and I know you know when I

344
00:19:17.119 --> 00:19:19.920
need it. So I'm gonna just trust you and step

345
00:19:19.960 --> 00:19:22.279
out the way. And that's what many people need to

346
00:19:22.319 --> 00:19:24.839
be doing. You need to get out of his way.

347
00:19:25.640 --> 00:19:27.759
And we've said this before him, We'll see it again.

348
00:19:27.880 --> 00:19:30.359
You need to get out of God's way. Anybody got

349
00:19:30.519 --> 00:19:33.799
anything to say? While I find this email?

350
00:19:36.359 --> 00:19:38.559
You forgot to pray, but that's it.

351
00:19:40.440 --> 00:19:43.599
Can you lead us leap? Please? What? Okay? Sure?

352
00:19:45.880 --> 00:19:46.119
Lord?

353
00:19:46.160 --> 00:19:47.920
I just think you love for this day and allowing

354
00:19:48.000 --> 00:19:50.039
us to gather here. I just pray that you bless

355
00:19:50.079 --> 00:19:53.160
those who are tuned in Father God, and wherever they

356
00:19:53.160 --> 00:19:55.039
are in life, I pray that you meet them their

357
00:19:55.160 --> 00:19:58.119
Lord and that and continue to be better people through you, Lord,

358
00:19:58.200 --> 00:19:59.839
and allow you to guide us and allow you to

359
00:19:59.880 --> 00:20:03.640
be the main person of our lives and a priority in.

360
00:20:03.599 --> 00:20:04.359
Our lives as well.

361
00:20:04.400 --> 00:20:06.079
Lord, I just think you got for all that you

362
00:20:06.160 --> 00:20:07.680
do for us. She's the same.

363
00:20:12.200 --> 00:20:15.079
It's okay for y'all to check me now, It's okay

364
00:20:15.119 --> 00:20:21.039
for y'all to check me. Okay, what I'm weird? What

365
00:20:21.079 --> 00:20:25.119
did you say? Eager? I just had to get it out.

366
00:20:25.160 --> 00:20:27.640
I just had to get it out. You know, it's

367
00:20:27.720 --> 00:20:36.440
just a God is just a wonderment, and I had

368
00:20:36.480 --> 00:20:41.519
to get it out. I had to get it. Thank you,

369
00:20:41.599 --> 00:20:43.880
But please check me. You know we're not going We

370
00:20:44.000 --> 00:20:46.440
got to get. It's all on him, It's all for him.

371
00:20:46.880 --> 00:20:50.799
This is only on God. And there's nothing more I

372
00:20:50.839 --> 00:20:54.920
can say to prove that the wisdom and the and

373
00:20:54.920 --> 00:20:57.799
and the proof is in the pudding. That's all I say.

374
00:20:58.279 --> 00:21:03.480
And I'm just thankful to God. And our lifestyle shows

375
00:21:03.599 --> 00:21:06.640
where we're where we are. We're just as human as

376
00:21:06.680 --> 00:21:09.920
everybody else. I'm just ten percent. But anyway, you know,

377
00:21:10.119 --> 00:21:13.279
it's everywhere and have you don't ever had things in

378
00:21:13.319 --> 00:21:15.319
your mind? You're trying to get thoughts out of your mind,

379
00:21:15.759 --> 00:21:17.240
and it's like I don't want to think about that.

380
00:21:17.240 --> 00:21:18.440
I don't want to think about that. I don't want

381
00:21:18.440 --> 00:21:21.440
to think about that. I mean, the devil is like, okay,

382
00:21:21.480 --> 00:21:23.759
we can't mess with anything else of her this, I

383
00:21:23.799 --> 00:21:27.200
gotta go after her mind, and the flesh just complies, like,

384
00:21:27.240 --> 00:21:29.079
oh yeah, she needs to think about that person, she

385
00:21:29.119 --> 00:21:31.640
needs to think about this. No, I don't because if

386
00:21:31.640 --> 00:21:33.720
I keep thinking and then I'm gonna start talking out loud,

387
00:21:33.920 --> 00:21:36.200
and then I'm gonna conjure the person. Back up. I

388
00:21:36.200 --> 00:21:38.319
don't want these people in my life. We got the

389
00:21:38.480 --> 00:21:41.720
prophetic warning last week. One of the prophets I say,

390
00:21:41.799 --> 00:21:44.799
they're gonna try to come back into your life. They're

391
00:21:44.839 --> 00:21:47.599
gonna try to come back, and you gotta be careful.

392
00:21:47.640 --> 00:21:49.960
Didn't see that was just she snuck right on in.

393
00:21:50.680 --> 00:21:56.119
I say what am? I snuck right on in and

394
00:21:56.319 --> 00:22:00.599
and told no facad no play clothes, no no makeup, no,

395
00:22:00.599 --> 00:22:04.240
no camouflage, just came right in as is, and I'm like, ah,

396
00:22:04.720 --> 00:22:07.880
what was I thinking? So yes, even the very best

397
00:22:07.880 --> 00:22:13.200
of us. The scripture said even God's elect may be fooled,

398
00:22:14.359 --> 00:22:18.119
then said we will be. He said we may be

399
00:22:18.759 --> 00:22:22.200
fooled as well. So you've got to stay, keep your

400
00:22:22.200 --> 00:22:24.680
head on a swivel. You've got to watch and pray.

401
00:22:25.039 --> 00:22:29.559
Everybody's missing God's God's really, it doesn't matter who he's using.

402
00:22:29.720 --> 00:22:32.200
He's clearing up some things, he's making ways out of

403
00:22:32.200 --> 00:22:35.839
no way, he's changing laws. You don't understand that. You listen,

404
00:22:36.079 --> 00:22:37.839
you know you just want a bicker. You just want

405
00:22:37.839 --> 00:22:40.759
a bicker, and your bickering is getting nowhere. You just

406
00:22:40.799 --> 00:22:43.240
have a forty year journey that normally would have taken

407
00:22:43.279 --> 00:22:45.960
eleven days. You're gonna go back to what our ancestors

408
00:22:46.000 --> 00:22:48.759
did in the Old Testament. You're gonna just keep walking

409
00:22:48.799 --> 00:22:54.359
that same path, drawing those say tempting those in encouraging

410
00:22:54.400 --> 00:22:57.440
those same temptations, the lust, everything else. You gonna still

411
00:22:57.440 --> 00:23:02.880
walk in the same beat this time next year, because

412
00:23:02.880 --> 00:23:05.559
it's not gonna do it. Prayer changes things, not your behavior,

413
00:23:05.640 --> 00:23:10.640
not your opinion, not your commentary, not your unforgiveness, not that.

414
00:23:10.759 --> 00:23:14.799
No prayer changes the thing. And it's a proof in

415
00:23:14.839 --> 00:23:17.880
the putting. That's all like an eighty one manifestation in

416
00:23:17.920 --> 00:23:22.559
the last thirty one thirty days. Eighty one things God

417
00:23:22.799 --> 00:23:24.759
did for me. I didn't even ask. It's on my

418
00:23:25.160 --> 00:23:32.680
bingeon board. Write it down, make it plain. So I'm

419
00:23:32.680 --> 00:23:36.319
mina say no comments. Guys, come on trail, you got

420
00:23:36.319 --> 00:23:38.400
something to say. Somebody gotta say something, so you say

421
00:23:38.440 --> 00:23:40.000
say something, say something.

422
00:23:40.799 --> 00:23:42.519
I mean, I was taking it all then, but it

423
00:23:42.599 --> 00:23:46.799
was just I gotta get watch how I choose my

424
00:23:46.839 --> 00:23:47.680
words on this walk.

425
00:23:47.759 --> 00:23:49.440
So it wasn't ironic, you know.

426
00:23:50.119 --> 00:23:52.839
Actually I was listening to a summer similar to what

427
00:23:52.839 --> 00:23:57.720
you're talking about right now, about people and in your

428
00:23:57.720 --> 00:24:01.079
group that you're hanging with, and those that want to

429
00:24:01.079 --> 00:24:03.079
help me grow and those that just want to pull

430
00:24:03.319 --> 00:24:07.519
and tug from you. So and this is just like

431
00:24:07.640 --> 00:24:10.359
right on time. So I won't say the incidence, like

432
00:24:10.440 --> 00:24:15.000
I used to say before, but it's you know, it's

433
00:24:15.039 --> 00:24:17.240
you know, God is showing different things.

434
00:24:17.319 --> 00:24:18.920
And you know I heard it this morning.

435
00:24:18.960 --> 00:24:21.440
Now I'm hearing it's the same thing that we're talking

436
00:24:21.519 --> 00:24:24.759
about this evening. But also I was kind of let

437
00:24:24.799 --> 00:24:27.119
to say something and I know you had a comment

438
00:24:27.359 --> 00:24:28.160
for this morning.

439
00:24:28.240 --> 00:24:33.440
I mean the show about my parents, which I appreciate it,

440
00:24:33.440 --> 00:24:35.160
I really do, but with.

441
00:24:35.240 --> 00:24:38.039
This and I just want to be transparent here with

442
00:24:38.039 --> 00:24:41.799
with the audience again that this is not my typical

443
00:24:41.839 --> 00:24:47.960
favorite time of year, and for any anyone that going

444
00:24:48.039 --> 00:24:51.400
through something or you know this, if you're feeling a

445
00:24:51.400 --> 00:24:55.079
certain way. You know, sometimes I used to give my

446
00:24:55.160 --> 00:24:57.519
clients or work to, you know, get them to rate

447
00:24:57.599 --> 00:25:00.599
on a scale of one to ten. One not feeling

448
00:25:00.599 --> 00:25:02.680
good at all, Ten you're great, give me a number,

449
00:25:03.599 --> 00:25:05.640
and they would give me a number. I said, Okay,

450
00:25:05.839 --> 00:25:07.160
what would you need what would.

451
00:25:07.000 --> 00:25:08.640
It need to happen for it to be like one

452
00:25:08.720 --> 00:25:09.440
point higher?

453
00:25:10.200 --> 00:25:13.079
And our declined, say put on some listen, Okay, let's

454
00:25:13.079 --> 00:25:15.960
get to put if that's going to make you feel better.

455
00:25:16.319 --> 00:25:20.640
So right now, you know, there's there's a lot of.

456
00:25:20.599 --> 00:25:25.400
Different spirits floating around the spirit of depression, anxiety, fear,

457
00:25:26.119 --> 00:25:28.640
you know, loneliness, it's a lot of that.

458
00:25:28.920 --> 00:25:30.680
But have to fight through it.

459
00:25:31.160 --> 00:25:32.920
You have to try to find a way to fight

460
00:25:32.960 --> 00:25:35.480
through it and find a way that's going to make

461
00:25:35.559 --> 00:25:38.799
me feel better. You know, if it's putting on the

462
00:25:38.839 --> 00:25:40.960
brightest cellar like today, I said, Okay, you know.

463
00:25:40.960 --> 00:25:43.799
What, let me just put this on it. So Monday morning,

464
00:25:43.839 --> 00:25:45.920
now that it was a bad day, it was a

465
00:25:46.000 --> 00:25:46.720
trying day.

466
00:25:46.880 --> 00:25:49.480
It really was a trying day. My facial expression didn't

467
00:25:49.480 --> 00:25:51.960
look like this from what my coworkers were telling me,

468
00:25:52.000 --> 00:25:56.400
if they looked like you were upset. But I wasn't mad,

469
00:25:56.640 --> 00:25:59.160
they said mad. Really, I was not mad. I was

470
00:25:59.200 --> 00:26:03.279
just disappoint It's frustrated anytime you work in a human

471
00:26:03.319 --> 00:26:05.440
service field, people are going to do that to you.

472
00:26:06.240 --> 00:26:08.880
But I also was preoccupied because there was a lot

473
00:26:09.000 --> 00:26:10.880
going on that I had to handle that we had

474
00:26:10.880 --> 00:26:13.920
to handle that work today, and so you know, just

475
00:26:14.319 --> 00:26:17.480
I look forward to this, this is my Monday nights.

476
00:26:17.519 --> 00:26:19.480
I look forward to that. Then some other things that

477
00:26:19.519 --> 00:26:21.640
I do during the week, I look forward to that.

478
00:26:21.680 --> 00:26:25.359
And there's all spirituals, all God's work, it's all that type.

479
00:26:25.400 --> 00:26:28.160
You didn't even know the job is God's work, but

480
00:26:28.319 --> 00:26:32.160
still is the atmosphere not from all times godless, and.

481
00:26:32.119 --> 00:26:34.440
So fighting through people's stuff.

482
00:26:35.240 --> 00:26:38.799
You know, people got stuff going on and fighting through.

483
00:26:38.599 --> 00:26:39.640
That, they're mad.

484
00:26:40.240 --> 00:26:42.759
You know, I regard my heart against not.

485
00:26:42.920 --> 00:26:45.160
Only the stuff that I'm going through, but their stuff,

486
00:26:45.960 --> 00:26:48.079
and trying to watch what I say and how are

487
00:26:48.079 --> 00:26:50.559
I word things because I don't want to offend anybody.

488
00:26:50.759 --> 00:26:53.480
Don't know where people are right now, and so that

489
00:26:54.039 --> 00:26:55.759
that's kind of like a struggle.

490
00:26:55.759 --> 00:26:58.400
So you know, I was led to kind of say

491
00:26:58.400 --> 00:27:01.240
that because I want people to know things.

492
00:27:01.039 --> 00:27:02.000
Are gonna be okay.

493
00:27:02.079 --> 00:27:04.279
And it is trying, and it's cold up here, and

494
00:27:04.319 --> 00:27:07.359
like I said, it was flurries last couple of days,

495
00:27:07.400 --> 00:27:10.559
you know, on and off, and it's very cold, and

496
00:27:10.599 --> 00:27:12.400
that's kind of opposite of what I like.

497
00:27:12.480 --> 00:27:15.039
I like how to like a longer days. I like sunshine.

498
00:27:15.759 --> 00:27:19.440
That's my better atmosphere. But since I don't, I have

499
00:27:19.519 --> 00:27:21.559
to make the best of what I have and find

500
00:27:21.559 --> 00:27:24.880
ways it's going to make me happy, smile, putting, you know,

501
00:27:25.000 --> 00:27:27.400
helping out other people that are more vulnerable than me.

502
00:27:27.880 --> 00:27:31.440
Advocating for them. So just you know, just fight through

503
00:27:31.960 --> 00:27:34.160
and trust out, just fighting on truck out.

504
00:27:35.240 --> 00:27:39.640
Amen. Amen, and thank you for sharing that. And I

505
00:27:39.759 --> 00:27:41.640
need to do something. I checked. I took a look

506
00:27:41.640 --> 00:27:45.319
at the comments, which you're very negative and very nasty,

507
00:27:45.640 --> 00:27:48.960
and it's not for my regular folks, and I rebuke you.

508
00:27:48.960 --> 00:27:53.400
You may get away with doing that on other podcasts

509
00:27:53.480 --> 00:27:55.680
and other comments, but I rebuke you. In the name

510
00:27:55.759 --> 00:27:58.880
of Jesus. No weapon formed against such shall prosper. And

511
00:27:58.920 --> 00:28:03.640
you're not bringing your nat steak nests here, So you're done.

512
00:28:03.920 --> 00:28:06.720
You're not bothering me, you're bothering God. So God, I

513
00:28:06.839 --> 00:28:09.440
give that these two people to whoever said this stuff

514
00:28:09.680 --> 00:28:14.440
to you. Do what you do best, do what you

515
00:28:14.599 --> 00:28:17.279
do best. We're not that, we're not setting link for that,

516
00:28:18.680 --> 00:28:22.119
and you're not going to do that here. Thank you anyway.

517
00:28:23.079 --> 00:28:26.640
And I'm going to shift to tonight topic, which is

518
00:28:26.720 --> 00:28:30.640
the Nationally Impaired Driving Prevention Month. And to be honest

519
00:28:30.680 --> 00:28:32.839
with you, I really thought it was talking about people

520
00:28:32.880 --> 00:28:35.640
who are impaired, but they're talking more about people not

521
00:28:35.799 --> 00:28:38.839
being sober and they're getting behind the wheel of the car,

522
00:28:39.400 --> 00:28:43.640
which is a flying projectile. It's a moving target type

523
00:28:43.680 --> 00:28:47.359
of thing, you know. So, but I want to take

524
00:28:47.400 --> 00:28:50.880
it even further when you are older, or when let's

525
00:28:50.880 --> 00:28:55.119
say your eyesight is impaired or your hearing is impaired,

526
00:28:55.640 --> 00:28:58.680
you've got to diagnosis. You've got you're probably taking eye

527
00:28:58.759 --> 00:29:01.240
drops and all that kind of stuff. You really need

528
00:29:01.319 --> 00:29:05.079
to take heed on what you're doing, because you're putting

529
00:29:05.119 --> 00:29:07.720
not only your life in danger, but you're putting everybody

530
00:29:07.799 --> 00:29:11.880
else around you lives in danger, even the pedestrians. Over

531
00:29:11.960 --> 00:29:15.799
the past few years, Orlando has had this huge increase

532
00:29:16.480 --> 00:29:24.440
of pedestrians being hit and killed. How you can't see

533
00:29:24.519 --> 00:29:27.160
people and you I mean, but you're they're driving, They're

534
00:29:27.240 --> 00:29:29.799
doing sixty seventy miles an hour in a thirty five

535
00:29:29.920 --> 00:29:33.200
and a forty and they can't stop. They can't and

536
00:29:33.200 --> 00:29:36.960
they're hitting runs, so you know, and it's hard. And

537
00:29:37.200 --> 00:29:39.640
I was talking about, you know, this is the hard

538
00:29:39.839 --> 00:29:43.799
truth when you're not able to do something, when you're

539
00:29:43.880 --> 00:29:46.960
not able to keep up, you know, I felt bad.

540
00:29:47.039 --> 00:29:49.880
We were doing the training with our dog, and thank

541
00:29:49.960 --> 00:29:52.039
god I have, you know, my daughter there. She took

542
00:29:52.119 --> 00:29:56.359
the lead. I changed my name to make her team

543
00:29:56.440 --> 00:29:59.440
lead number one, hand little number one. I had Donald

544
00:29:59.519 --> 00:30:02.680
beheadling number two and I stepped back, even though she's

545
00:30:02.759 --> 00:30:05.279
my support animal. And you know, I got fussed at

546
00:30:05.319 --> 00:30:06.599
a little bit, like you need to be doing. But

547
00:30:06.680 --> 00:30:09.279
I couldn't keep up with the pack. I couldn't keep

548
00:30:09.359 --> 00:30:11.680
up with the group. And this is just regular walking

549
00:30:12.119 --> 00:30:14.039
because I have to look down and I make sure

550
00:30:14.119 --> 00:30:16.440
that the you know, the street, the pavement is straight,

551
00:30:16.480 --> 00:30:20.160
and if it's not, I'm going down. And I'm not

552
00:30:20.240 --> 00:30:22.200
going to go back to the hospital. I'm not going

553
00:30:22.279 --> 00:30:24.920
back through that. I rebuked that in the name of Jesus.

554
00:30:24.960 --> 00:30:27.839
I'm not so my daughter. You know, my kids had

555
00:30:27.880 --> 00:30:30.559
to take the lead in many cases for the bulk

556
00:30:30.599 --> 00:30:33.599
of the training, you know, but you have to realize

557
00:30:33.640 --> 00:30:36.640
what you can and cannot do, not being lazy. I'm

558
00:30:36.680 --> 00:30:40.039
not talking about procrastinators. I'm not talking I'm talking about

559
00:30:40.079 --> 00:30:41.960
when you realize, you know what, I'm not able to

560
00:30:42.039 --> 00:30:44.400
do this anymore. I can't. I'm not able to climb.

561
00:30:44.440 --> 00:30:46.519
I used to love I always want to have a

562
00:30:46.559 --> 00:30:50.480
two story house. I love having the stairs in the house.

563
00:30:51.240 --> 00:30:54.799
But before this happened to me, ironically the house of

564
00:30:55.160 --> 00:30:57.119
I was like, you know what I'm gonna I want

565
00:30:57.200 --> 00:31:00.440
the one story. And the last house we moved into

566
00:31:00.480 --> 00:31:03.279
before we got this one, it was a one story

567
00:31:03.400 --> 00:31:05.400
and it was wide and it was you know, just

568
00:31:05.640 --> 00:31:09.079
long and everything, and I'm like, I like this. It

569
00:31:09.279 --> 00:31:11.680
was facious enough. But I used to. I mean, my

570
00:31:11.759 --> 00:31:13.720
kids grew up with knowing we're gonna have a two

571
00:31:13.799 --> 00:31:16.039
story house. There was no doubt about it. We were

572
00:31:16.039 --> 00:31:19.920
gonna have one. But it went away and had no idea.

573
00:31:20.720 --> 00:31:25.920
Because I changed my mind, I would be ready for

574
00:31:26.039 --> 00:31:29.599
what was gonna happen to me in year number eight

575
00:31:30.880 --> 00:31:35.359
of staying at that other house had no idea, and

576
00:31:35.480 --> 00:31:37.759
even the hospital folks had to come out and make

577
00:31:37.799 --> 00:31:41.480
sure my house, the house was convenient enough, was conducive

578
00:31:41.640 --> 00:31:44.000
enough for me to be able to get a wheelchair in.

579
00:31:44.759 --> 00:31:46.720
I had a hubb around. I had, I mean they did.

580
00:31:46.920 --> 00:31:49.160
They came in and looked like because they were gonna

581
00:31:49.160 --> 00:31:51.319
say that if we didn't think that house was suitable,

582
00:31:51.599 --> 00:31:54.200
we were gonna help you move. You don't have to

583
00:31:54.240 --> 00:31:57.880
get something, you couldn't stay there. And thank god, they

584
00:31:57.920 --> 00:31:59.920
were like, yeah, you got it. You're on a hell

585
00:32:00.160 --> 00:32:01.640
but you know you do it pretty. You know you're

586
00:32:01.680 --> 00:32:05.920
gonna do good. So and thank god. I love my home.

587
00:32:06.039 --> 00:32:10.160
It's it's you know, it's open space, it's spacious, one story.

588
00:32:10.279 --> 00:32:10.799
I love it.

589
00:32:11.759 --> 00:32:14.400
And this is what even my next dream home will

590
00:32:14.440 --> 00:32:18.000
be that I'll be building will be one story, but

591
00:32:18.119 --> 00:32:20.720
it's gonna be all and wide, and the driveway way

592
00:32:20.839 --> 00:32:24.039
out two row, two streets long, and everything else I

593
00:32:24.079 --> 00:32:29.720
can see who coming anyway. Yeah, so you've got to

594
00:32:29.839 --> 00:32:31.880
be able. I thought about this. I was thinking about

595
00:32:31.920 --> 00:32:34.599
this throughout the day. You know, looking at my situation,

596
00:32:34.640 --> 00:32:37.359
you know, you just there just comes a time that

597
00:32:37.480 --> 00:32:40.559
you've really got to assess yourself. If you're there are

598
00:32:40.599 --> 00:32:43.359
no changes that you can make. You're you're not able

599
00:32:43.400 --> 00:32:45.799
to walk long distances and stuff like that, or go

600
00:32:46.000 --> 00:32:49.079
upstairs and without your knees going out and stuff like that.

601
00:32:49.200 --> 00:32:51.559
You need to go check your knee caps because they

602
00:32:51.640 --> 00:32:54.680
do leave. They leave us sooner than you think. They

603
00:32:54.759 --> 00:32:57.920
become brittle and everything else. And it's bone on bone

604
00:32:57.960 --> 00:33:00.960
and I heard that subscruciating bang. By the time you

605
00:33:01.119 --> 00:33:03.680
realize it, you know, you don't have any cartilage. You

606
00:33:03.839 --> 00:33:06.480
got to be real with yourself. You go to the dentist.

607
00:33:06.519 --> 00:33:08.440
You ain't been to the dentist in two years. You

608
00:33:08.519 --> 00:33:11.200
could go to the dentist. They're gonna tell you, oh,

609
00:33:11.240 --> 00:33:12.960
you got a whole lot of cavities. Oh my God,

610
00:33:13.000 --> 00:33:17.079
you're a namual is weakening and then lessening and thinning

611
00:33:17.160 --> 00:33:19.079
and all this kind of stuff. Yeah, well, you didn't

612
00:33:19.079 --> 00:33:23.759
take care of yourself. You didn't have the job that anymore.

613
00:33:23.839 --> 00:33:26.079
They provided all those benefits where you could go, g

614
00:33:26.079 --> 00:33:28.240
have your teeth, you know, check there twice a year.

615
00:33:30.680 --> 00:33:32.559
You gotta be honest with yourself. And that's all I

616
00:33:32.599 --> 00:33:35.440
could think about today was, you know, this is about honesty.

617
00:33:36.000 --> 00:33:38.799
You know, am I impaired. You don't know how many

618
00:33:38.880 --> 00:33:43.519
families I had of aging folks who were the head head,

619
00:33:43.720 --> 00:33:46.440
you know, person or primary person in charge. I had

620
00:33:46.480 --> 00:33:47.759
to let them know, you know, you're gonna have to

621
00:33:47.799 --> 00:33:51.559
take the keys. I had to unplug my store. My

622
00:33:51.640 --> 00:33:55.720
mom was a smoker, even despite her Alzheimer's, and she

623
00:33:55.799 --> 00:33:57.839
couldn't find anything. I don't know how she would find

624
00:33:57.839 --> 00:33:59.839
a cigarette. Next thing, I know, she's cutting on this.

625
00:34:00.359 --> 00:34:02.920
We didn't have those gas burners. We had a flat top,

626
00:34:03.599 --> 00:34:05.559
and I'm like, and I wouldn't say anything because of

627
00:34:05.599 --> 00:34:07.960
the agitator, so I just do. I had to unplug

628
00:34:08.079 --> 00:34:11.400
the stove when I left home and come back at

629
00:34:11.480 --> 00:34:14.719
lunchtime plug it back up, fixing some lunch because nobody

630
00:34:14.760 --> 00:34:16.440
would help me to watch her, and then I had

631
00:34:16.480 --> 00:34:20.599
no choice. I had no choice. I had no choice.

632
00:34:21.159 --> 00:34:25.519
Because of safety reasons, I had to place her. I

633
00:34:25.760 --> 00:34:29.880
had no choice. It was more danger dangerous for her

634
00:34:29.960 --> 00:34:32.519
to stay at home by herself. Nobody would help me.

635
00:34:33.519 --> 00:34:35.880
My neighbors, who are all up in age themselves, are like,

636
00:34:36.039 --> 00:34:37.880
oh no, we've never They ain't seen it up close

637
00:34:37.920 --> 00:34:40.920
and personal. And then all of them have suffered from

638
00:34:40.960 --> 00:34:45.800
it since then. So you know, I had to make

639
00:34:45.840 --> 00:34:49.320
a choice. But she lighting up the stove and I'm like,

640
00:34:49.400 --> 00:34:52.480
oh my god, Jesus, you know I had to unplug

641
00:34:52.559 --> 00:34:54.559
the telephone. You know, there's things that you have to

642
00:34:54.719 --> 00:34:57.679
the decisions at times you just you gotta just check

643
00:34:57.719 --> 00:34:59.639
it and say, you know what, when does it come

644
00:34:59.760 --> 00:35:03.559
down to. It's not about pride anymore. It's not about,

645
00:35:03.800 --> 00:35:05.840
you know, showing off of the neighbors or trying to

646
00:35:05.880 --> 00:35:08.920
get with the neighbor. It's not about that. And it's

647
00:35:08.960 --> 00:35:12.800
not even about pleasing somebody in the family. You don't

648
00:35:12.840 --> 00:35:14.639
like the way I do something. When you step in,

649
00:35:16.159 --> 00:35:23.639
you take over, you do better, and you don't. We

650
00:35:23.719 --> 00:35:25.559
don't want to be all you don't want your time

651
00:35:25.719 --> 00:35:30.559
messed up and interrupted, so don't judge me because I

652
00:35:30.639 --> 00:35:32.679
have to look at this. I'm a social worker. Trade

653
00:35:32.719 --> 00:35:36.280
you understand this. I'm in. That's our goal is to

654
00:35:36.519 --> 00:35:41.480
keep families together. Our goal, that's our ethical cold, that's

655
00:35:41.599 --> 00:35:44.239
our mandate. If we could keep you together, we're gonna

656
00:35:44.360 --> 00:35:48.159
keep you together. As long as nobody's getting hurt, nobody's

657
00:35:48.199 --> 00:35:51.239
not endangered, we're gonna keep you together. You can cuss

658
00:35:51.239 --> 00:35:52.800
each other out of you as ll as you don't

659
00:35:52.880 --> 00:35:55.239
cut each other. We're gonna keep you in that house together.

660
00:35:55.519 --> 00:35:58.920
That's our that's our model we meet. Our main decree

661
00:35:59.039 --> 00:36:02.239
is we meet you where you're at. That's a main decree.

662
00:36:03.320 --> 00:36:06.559
Our stitument is we keep everybody together. We unify you,

663
00:36:07.280 --> 00:36:10.840
even though we may not like it, but sometimes you're

664
00:36:10.960 --> 00:36:14.760
all you had and the heartiest thing in my life.

665
00:36:15.159 --> 00:36:19.440
Despite all that I've gone through everything, I'm burying parents,

666
00:36:19.599 --> 00:36:21.760
getting a divorce, of the first marriage, about the divorce

667
00:36:21.840 --> 00:36:23.840
or second, having a husband, just go ahead and die

668
00:36:24.239 --> 00:36:27.599
just I mean, the worst thing, the worst thing, and

669
00:36:27.719 --> 00:36:31.480
it took me years to forgive myself. I had to

670
00:36:31.599 --> 00:36:37.079
place her because it was no longer safe. I could

671
00:36:37.159 --> 00:36:39.320
not leave her a home and I could not go

672
00:36:39.400 --> 00:36:41.199
to work. And I'm all thinking about what am I

673
00:36:41.239 --> 00:36:43.480
gonna go home and find when I go to lunch.

674
00:36:44.280 --> 00:36:46.559
When I go home for lunch and let me get

675
00:36:46.599 --> 00:36:51.239
off at five o'clock, I could get home. I had

676
00:36:51.320 --> 00:36:54.880
no choice. And now because I honored my parents, my

677
00:36:55.000 --> 00:36:59.519
days are gonna be long. That's a commandment. But like

678
00:36:59.599 --> 00:37:01.639
I said that, there were thousands of famis that I

679
00:37:01.679 --> 00:37:03.440
had to tell them. You're gonna have to take the keys,

680
00:37:04.440 --> 00:37:07.199
You're gonna have to change the locks. You're gonna have

681
00:37:07.239 --> 00:37:09.119
to talk to that brother or that sister that you're

682
00:37:09.199 --> 00:37:11.519
not talking to, you haven't talked to in fifteen years.

683
00:37:12.119 --> 00:37:14.800
Because they knew this, They saw this coming, and they

684
00:37:14.920 --> 00:37:17.199
left home. You've got to you got to get help.

685
00:37:17.880 --> 00:37:20.480
And now I don't even know what resources are available

686
00:37:20.480 --> 00:37:23.400
in the community anymore. I'm gonna be calling a couple

687
00:37:23.480 --> 00:37:26.079
of mayors, the mayors, Yeah, a couple of them, maybe

688
00:37:26.400 --> 00:37:30.960
before the holiday, and see what's left? Where do we

689
00:37:31.079 --> 00:37:33.199
go now? Where do we tell people to go for help?

690
00:37:35.960 --> 00:37:39.239
So again, when I saw this the national impaired again,

691
00:37:39.320 --> 00:37:42.000
I thought, it's not dealing with just you know, being

692
00:37:42.119 --> 00:37:46.639
sober or under the influence. People are bathing now, Yes,

693
00:37:46.760 --> 00:37:49.199
bone on bone hurts. This is good. Oh, thank your

694
00:37:49.199 --> 00:37:54.159
eld K. Yeah, I you know this baping thing and

695
00:37:54.280 --> 00:37:58.440
everybody that's that's not just smoke, that's something in there.

696
00:37:59.480 --> 00:38:03.320
And people are laciness thing too, even even even you know,

697
00:38:03.559 --> 00:38:06.159
in the regular world. However, you get it through the

698
00:38:06.239 --> 00:38:11.039
displa lacing stuff making you go crazy, making you want

699
00:38:11.079 --> 00:38:13.519
to take your life, making you see things that are

700
00:38:13.599 --> 00:38:16.880
not there. Why are you doing that? That's not helping

701
00:38:16.960 --> 00:38:19.960
you because you got to buy it. You got I

702
00:38:19.960 --> 00:38:21.679
don't care if you grow. You still got to buy

703
00:38:21.719 --> 00:38:25.400
stuff to make it grow, and devices and stuff. And

704
00:38:25.519 --> 00:38:28.800
you're you're under the influence. I don't care. Even the

705
00:38:28.960 --> 00:38:34.119
very best of y'all, you're under the influence. And I

706
00:38:34.199 --> 00:38:37.880
don't need you driving alongside me. I'm trying to get now.

707
00:38:37.880 --> 00:38:39.360
I got to go back to leave it four day

708
00:38:39.400 --> 00:38:42.119
in the morning to go run my errands when the

709
00:38:42.239 --> 00:38:46.119
roads are clear, because I mean, you're just drag racing

710
00:38:46.199 --> 00:38:48.840
and you got those those nuts out there doing that mess.

711
00:38:50.639 --> 00:38:53.760
Then I've got my seniors who are driving around with

712
00:38:53.880 --> 00:38:58.400
the disabled placard hanging from their mirror when it says

713
00:38:58.480 --> 00:39:02.119
do not drive with this. It's on the card on

714
00:39:02.360 --> 00:39:06.599
the placard. You need to read it. Do not drive

715
00:39:07.039 --> 00:39:11.880
with this hanging off your mirror. You're supposed to take

716
00:39:11.920 --> 00:39:13.960
it off, and then when you park, that's when you

717
00:39:14.039 --> 00:39:15.880
put it on there. And then I saw this lady

718
00:39:15.920 --> 00:39:18.079
once again getting out the car. Ain't nothing wrong with her.

719
00:39:18.159 --> 00:39:21.000
I can't see it, but you that's how that's your

720
00:39:21.039 --> 00:39:23.960
mother or your aunt or your grandfather or whoever you transport.

721
00:39:24.079 --> 00:39:27.440
That's their placard. And you're gonna you know, you're gonna

722
00:39:27.480 --> 00:39:30.159
park your able body. You could go do and park

723
00:39:30.239 --> 00:39:38.199
where you need to park, and you don't, and you

724
00:39:38.320 --> 00:39:44.079
make me have to circle the pracket lot to find

725
00:39:44.119 --> 00:39:52.360
a parking space. The thing says do not drive with

726
00:39:52.519 --> 00:39:57.000
this decal on your mirror. It says it on there.

727
00:39:57.079 --> 00:40:01.679
It's in blue and white, and you totally disregard it

728
00:40:01.679 --> 00:40:04.239
because all of y'all just and you're right on my tail.

729
00:40:04.519 --> 00:40:08.840
You can barely see you leading up on the and

730
00:40:08.960 --> 00:40:12.440
my kids have mind, you know, they can't hear you. Right, Yes,

731
00:40:12.559 --> 00:40:19.400
I know the wrongs which is us, and there's nothing

732
00:40:19.440 --> 00:40:21.320
they can do because they gonna roll up for me anyway.

733
00:40:23.960 --> 00:40:27.559
So now I got to leave earlier so I could

734
00:40:27.639 --> 00:40:29.159
try to think that I'm safe, go ahead.

735
00:40:30.760 --> 00:40:33.440
So I'm just gonna say about caraman as well.

736
00:40:34.199 --> 00:40:34.760
Your mood.

737
00:40:35.559 --> 00:40:41.400
You know, if you're angry, that is, you know, causes

738
00:40:41.480 --> 00:40:45.639
you to impulse of driving. So if something is making

739
00:40:45.719 --> 00:40:50.519
you angry before you get in that car, say your prayer, relax,

740
00:40:50.679 --> 00:40:56.519
moosaw whatever, whatever, just get yourself together, because traffic can

741
00:40:56.719 --> 00:41:02.159
make you upset. People driving certain I know, make you upset.

742
00:41:03.360 --> 00:41:06.719
But I remember years ago when they're talking about if

743
00:41:06.760 --> 00:41:08.679
you have the light, if you missed the light, okay,

744
00:41:09.960 --> 00:41:11.599
it might be God will say, okay, I don't want

745
00:41:11.719 --> 00:41:13.360
you don't need to go to this light right now,

746
00:41:13.679 --> 00:41:17.519
or find something else that it could take your mind

747
00:41:17.800 --> 00:41:20.519
off of being stuck in traffic. You know, something else,

748
00:41:20.639 --> 00:41:25.679
medicate or listen to some good music or something like that, because.

749
00:41:25.400 --> 00:41:27.519
I know it's trying time.

750
00:41:27.920 --> 00:41:31.239
They were trying before, but they really are trying times

751
00:41:31.320 --> 00:41:31.840
right now.

752
00:41:32.880 --> 00:41:36.239
And folks, you need to just kind of take keys

753
00:41:36.320 --> 00:41:39.599
to what's going on and try to make sure that they.

754
00:41:42.119 --> 00:41:45.159
Cautious, you know, very very cautious, because you don't want

755
00:41:45.199 --> 00:41:48.880
to do anything that would harm someone else while you're driving.

756
00:41:50.159 --> 00:41:50.519
And so.

757
00:41:53.239 --> 00:41:56.880
If you haven't gotten it by now, I don't know

758
00:41:57.440 --> 00:42:05.039
what to say, and it's not thank you trade for saying.

759
00:42:05.400 --> 00:42:09.519
And you know the world is aspiring right now and

760
00:42:09.800 --> 00:42:12.639
there is only those who really believe in God. And

761
00:42:12.760 --> 00:42:16.199
we're holding on with studying his word to encourage us

762
00:42:16.599 --> 00:42:19.800
to give us hope. I'm not looking at man to

763
00:42:19.880 --> 00:42:22.480
give me hope. I'm looking at God's word and what

764
00:42:22.599 --> 00:42:25.760
he has promised to give me hope. I am praying,

765
00:42:26.480 --> 00:42:30.400
hoping that God hears my prayers. I am. I'm studying,

766
00:42:30.480 --> 00:42:33.239
I'm singing a new song. I'm keeping gospel music playing

767
00:42:33.320 --> 00:42:36.079
throughout the house because I need to hear something that

768
00:42:36.159 --> 00:42:40.159
could take my mind off of crazy stuff. You're not

769
00:42:40.239 --> 00:42:42.840
the only ones out there. You got to do whatever

770
00:42:42.920 --> 00:42:47.800
it takes. And people are angry. People are talking to themselves,

771
00:42:48.679 --> 00:42:51.519
people are bumping you don't even they don't even see you.

772
00:42:52.760 --> 00:42:55.320
People blowing their horning and life just turn green. And

773
00:42:55.400 --> 00:42:56.960
I got three cards in front of me where you

774
00:42:57.079 --> 00:43:03.360
think I'm going. People are just unsettled getting bad news.

775
00:43:03.400 --> 00:43:05.679
The lady had that she was out and she's well,

776
00:43:05.719 --> 00:43:08.280
I didn't say that. I didn't say that. Why are

777
00:43:08.280 --> 00:43:09.920
you taking it? And I'm like you in front of

778
00:43:10.000 --> 00:43:16.639
marshals and I can't help, but assess what you're saying.

779
00:43:16.880 --> 00:43:20.679
Because I'm listening to I can hear it. Then I

780
00:43:20.760 --> 00:43:22.920
went somewhere else and somebody talking about the co worker.

781
00:43:23.559 --> 00:43:25.679
I'm like, oh God, let me. I don't want to

782
00:43:25.719 --> 00:43:28.199
I don't want to be around it. This is not

783
00:43:28.320 --> 00:43:32.119
the time to judge. This is not the time to judge.

784
00:43:32.119 --> 00:43:34.920
It's not the time to point fingers and point out fault.

785
00:43:35.039 --> 00:43:39.000
And if it wasn't for you, no, because it's not

786
00:43:39.079 --> 00:43:42.400
gonna get any better out here with your naked eyes

787
00:43:42.519 --> 00:43:46.400
seeing and your naked ears hearing, it's not gonna get better.

788
00:43:46.599 --> 00:43:50.719
Right now, some of us are calm because we already

789
00:43:50.840 --> 00:43:55.639
know about the storm. We already know, we already have

790
00:43:55.800 --> 00:43:59.000
everything we need for the emotional and and and and

791
00:43:59.239 --> 00:44:03.239
and the finance and the economical storms that are brewing.

792
00:44:05.000 --> 00:44:06.719
So that's why I can we can sit and say,

793
00:44:06.800 --> 00:44:09.960
you know, you gotta you gotta catch this, and you

794
00:44:10.000 --> 00:44:11.400
gotta get it right, and you gotta work it out

795
00:44:11.440 --> 00:44:14.199
for your family. What's gonna be good, what's gonna be safe?

796
00:44:14.639 --> 00:44:16.719
You gotta do it. You gotta take care of yourself.

797
00:44:18.199 --> 00:44:22.920
We can't say it anymore. We can't, and we're not

798
00:44:23.039 --> 00:44:23.639
gonna be here.

799
00:44:23.760 --> 00:44:28.480
Forever and I thank you.

800
00:44:29.360 --> 00:44:34.079
Go ahead add on to the like melancholy because sometimes

801
00:44:34.159 --> 00:44:38.039
you know, I used to do it years ago, getting

802
00:44:38.079 --> 00:44:40.199
a funk and listen and have these sad songs.

803
00:44:40.519 --> 00:44:43.800
No what what what I've learned to teach people that

804
00:44:43.920 --> 00:44:46.800
I work with as well, find some something funny, no,

805
00:44:46.960 --> 00:44:50.360
when to say when, No, when you've had enough and

806
00:44:50.480 --> 00:44:52.199
you need to step away from it.

807
00:44:52.960 --> 00:44:55.840
We look at it and then step back into whatever

808
00:44:55.960 --> 00:44:58.599
the stuff is. But try to. And I know it's hard.

809
00:44:58.719 --> 00:45:00.679
I know it's very hard, and.

810
00:45:01.079 --> 00:45:05.400
My transparency, I'm telling you just looking at different things.

811
00:45:05.519 --> 00:45:09.320
So I intentionally don't stay on the news for a

812
00:45:09.440 --> 00:45:12.199
long time. I'll look at us okay now and I

813
00:45:12.400 --> 00:45:14.599
flipped to see what another station is saying.

814
00:45:14.400 --> 00:45:16.039
And said, well, where'd they get that from? I don't

815
00:45:16.079 --> 00:45:18.360
see that. So you have to weigh it.

816
00:45:18.920 --> 00:45:23.239
Find something commony, turn turn it on, having music, something

817
00:45:23.239 --> 00:45:25.760
that's gonna make you get up and dance. You know,

818
00:45:26.559 --> 00:45:29.519
I don't know videos. I love skating, so I'll try.

819
00:45:29.599 --> 00:45:32.960
I follow a lot of skating videos. So you know,

820
00:45:33.239 --> 00:45:37.599
just things are just gonna uplift me. But you gotta

821
00:45:37.679 --> 00:45:40.440
find a way that's gonna uplift yourself as well, and

822
00:45:40.960 --> 00:45:43.559
it's a lot of things that can impair us, especially

823
00:45:43.559 --> 00:45:45.760
while driving that's a car.

824
00:45:46.360 --> 00:45:48.440
It can do damage not only to yourself but to

825
00:45:48.599 --> 00:45:49.199
other people.

826
00:45:49.320 --> 00:45:52.119
So just try to be mindful and if you know,

827
00:45:52.840 --> 00:45:57.239
reach out, maybe develop a circle of support of people

828
00:45:57.280 --> 00:45:59.559
that you know that you can reach out to, uh

829
00:46:00.159 --> 00:46:03.079
at a drop of a you know, a diamond if

830
00:46:03.079 --> 00:46:04.840
you're going through something. And I, like I said, being

831
00:46:04.880 --> 00:46:09.760
transferred again a few years ago, crossing bridges became struggle

832
00:46:09.800 --> 00:46:14.119
a challenge for me. Bridges and water across bodies of water,

833
00:46:14.840 --> 00:46:17.800
and in Virginia their bodies of water, and so it

834
00:46:17.880 --> 00:46:19.400
got to the point like I was like.

835
00:46:19.599 --> 00:46:22.880
Nervously shakings, So what is this? I've remember what is that?

836
00:46:23.280 --> 00:46:25.960
And so I had stopped doing that for a while

837
00:46:26.000 --> 00:46:30.400
by myself, but then once I graduated, I mean gradually,

838
00:46:30.960 --> 00:46:33.800
I would call somebody if I had to, because I

839
00:46:33.920 --> 00:46:36.719
worked on I had worked across water to get to

840
00:46:36.800 --> 00:46:39.280
my clients. So I would call a friend and say, hey,

841
00:46:39.760 --> 00:46:42.199
I'm getting there, talking to you good. Yeah, that can't

842
00:46:42.239 --> 00:46:44.159
take my mind off of it. Once I gots okay,

843
00:46:44.159 --> 00:46:44.719
I'll cross it.

844
00:46:45.400 --> 00:46:46.920
And I would do that coming back home.

845
00:46:47.039 --> 00:46:49.159
So just find something that's going to help me through

846
00:46:49.280 --> 00:46:52.800
that whatever that is, that's that's just my thing.

847
00:46:52.960 --> 00:46:54.920
You know, I'm pretty sure everybody has stuff going on.

848
00:46:56.599 --> 00:46:59.559
I just want to add although you know, I agree

849
00:46:59.599 --> 00:47:01.599
with all that you guys are saying as far as

850
00:47:01.760 --> 00:47:05.519
like whom missus Grave was mentioning about, you know, safety

851
00:47:05.559 --> 00:47:08.239
and stuff. I think it's just very important for people

852
00:47:08.400 --> 00:47:11.840
to get their kids into something active self defense. There's

853
00:47:11.840 --> 00:47:15.119
a lot of trafficking going on and they're being very

854
00:47:15.280 --> 00:47:18.039
loud about it now. They don't care about being secretive

855
00:47:18.039 --> 00:47:22.679
about trafficking. And again, the internet is free, so teaching you, okay,

856
00:47:22.800 --> 00:47:26.360
how to box, teaching them how to defend themselves, even yourselves. Like,

857
00:47:26.440 --> 00:47:28.519
I feel like everyone should take a self defense class,

858
00:47:28.599 --> 00:47:29.800
matter if you're a woman or man.

859
00:47:30.519 --> 00:47:32.039
It is kind of going based off of last week.

860
00:47:32.360 --> 00:47:34.800
God led that conversation last week, but we're supposed to

861
00:47:34.960 --> 00:47:37.679
go into self defense. But I just want to add

862
00:47:37.719 --> 00:47:40.800
that in because it's becoming not safe. Like I had

863
00:47:40.840 --> 00:47:42.559
to call one of my people today because a man

864
00:47:42.760 --> 00:47:45.960
just kept staring at me oddly, and I'm like, I'm

865
00:47:46.039 --> 00:47:48.920
always on my p's and q's, Like, you have to

866
00:47:48.960 --> 00:47:50.800
be aware you're surrounded, you have to be aware of

867
00:47:50.800 --> 00:47:51.440
who's around you.

868
00:47:51.519 --> 00:47:52.239
Even in the store.

869
00:47:52.679 --> 00:47:55.320
I know who's on that al I just passed, you

870
00:47:55.400 --> 00:47:57.400
know what I'm saying, Like, that's how you want to be,

871
00:47:57.840 --> 00:47:59.920
not paranoid, but away.

872
00:48:01.760 --> 00:48:02.679
You need to be aware.

873
00:48:02.679 --> 00:48:06.559
It's very important at a gas station, whether you go outside,

874
00:48:06.639 --> 00:48:08.320
do your errands alone, whatever.

875
00:48:08.159 --> 00:48:10.400
Case may be, you need to be aware of your surroundings.

876
00:48:10.519 --> 00:48:13.880
Like I was a little skeptical, that skeptical of the man,

877
00:48:14.880 --> 00:48:16.880
and I made sure I have my people on speed

878
00:48:16.960 --> 00:48:19.679
now just in case because we were not doing that today.

879
00:48:19.800 --> 00:48:20.039
Thank you.

880
00:48:20.639 --> 00:48:26.039
But God is our almighty provider, He's our almighty protector. Again,

881
00:48:26.079 --> 00:48:28.559
you need to pray about your plans of what you

882
00:48:28.760 --> 00:48:30.960
plan to do or what you want to do, and

883
00:48:31.239 --> 00:48:34.280
be sure it's okay to do prior to doing it.

884
00:48:35.400 --> 00:48:37.000
Like if you give you if you feel in I

885
00:48:37.039 --> 00:48:39.480
don't think you need to be doing it, that should

886
00:48:39.519 --> 00:48:42.559
just tell you you shouldn't be doing it. But if all,

887
00:48:42.639 --> 00:48:44.800
if you don't get no warning or anything like that,

888
00:48:45.039 --> 00:48:47.679
then you straight. But just going to God about that

889
00:48:47.719 --> 00:48:49.920
because it's just very important in these times right now.

890
00:48:51.280 --> 00:48:52.320
It really doesn't matter if.

891
00:48:52.199 --> 00:48:55.360
You're a woman or male, right amen, And don't matter

892
00:48:55.440 --> 00:48:57.360
the age either, It don't matter the.

893
00:48:57.400 --> 00:49:03.880
Age yea, and when you made it to your destination,

894
00:49:04.159 --> 00:49:05.159
I could check the buance.

895
00:49:06.159 --> 00:49:09.800
Yeah, yeah, I know my kids could you know they really?

896
00:49:10.280 --> 00:49:12.000
I'm like, no, you're supposed to text me when you land.

897
00:49:12.400 --> 00:49:14.519
You're supposed to text me when you get there, and

898
00:49:14.599 --> 00:49:15.840
what address you're going through?

899
00:49:16.039 --> 00:49:16.199
You know?

900
00:49:16.920 --> 00:49:18.360
Where is this at now? Which one?

901
00:49:18.639 --> 00:49:18.760
Oh?

902
00:49:18.800 --> 00:49:19.119
Okay?

903
