Speaker 2: You probably got to turn the mouth. Mount a wad
Speaker 2: of the money up.
Speaker 6: Come come on, you think, uh.
Speaker 5: Huh, I sure will.
Speaker 7: Good morning everybody you are listening to the voice, Come
Speaker 7: on now, digny one and only Steve Harvey got the
Speaker 7: radio show. Thank God for it all the time too. Well,
Speaker 7: here we go today. I want to share something with
Speaker 7: you that will help you because it's helped me.
Speaker 6: You know.
Speaker 3: I was.
Speaker 7: Telling the story once that in this magazine called Rob Report,
Speaker 7: that there was a statue I used to see for years.
Speaker 7: I started buying Rob Report magazines years ago. So I
Speaker 7: just wanted to see what affluent people did, you know,
Speaker 7: just wanted to see what people with means did, what
Speaker 7: type of investments they did, what they bought, you know,
Speaker 7: where they traveled to the Rob Report. It's just like
Speaker 7: a it's like a big boy toy magazine. You can
Speaker 7: see what cars is out. And I didn't have money
Speaker 7: for none of it. Just I was dreaming, though, you know,
Speaker 7: I just wanted to see. And there's a statue inside
Speaker 7: this magazine of this man who was coming out of
Speaker 7: this bronze rock. And he was completely bronzed, and he
Speaker 7: was muscular, and you know, he didn't look nothing like me,
Speaker 7: but he was a man coming up out of a rock.
Speaker 7: And he had a huge hammer and a chisel in
Speaker 7: his hand. And as his body from the waist up
Speaker 7: was coming out of this huge piece of stone, you
Speaker 7: could see where it was him who had been chiseling
Speaker 7: informing himself. So the name of the statue was self
Speaker 7: made Man. And for years man I said, Man, I'm
Speaker 7: gonna get a big house one day, and I'm gonna
Speaker 7: put that statue in the backyard in the corner. That's
Speaker 7: gonna be my little spot where I go chill, because
Speaker 7: I'm a self made man. Well, after years of working
Speaker 7: at becoming somebody and having reached a degree of success,
Speaker 7: I would have nothing to do with that statue. There's
Speaker 7: nothing about that statue that appeals to me anymore, because
Speaker 7: on my journey and in my quest to become what
Speaker 7: I thought would be this self made man, where I
Speaker 7: could put this statue and had this statue in the
Speaker 7: corner be kind of cold symbolizing it.
Speaker 5: I made it.
Speaker 7: I realized on my journey there's no such thing as
Speaker 7: a self made man. That we all need help, and
Speaker 7: that God places people in our paths along the way
Speaker 7: that benefit us oftentimes. And it's the most unlikely person
Speaker 7: often times, and it's the most unlikely way that He
Speaker 7: presents these people in front of you. It's crazy how
Speaker 7: he does it.
Speaker 3: Man.
Speaker 7: And so this is a statue now that I look
Speaker 7: at and I go, I see what the creator was saying.
Speaker 7: And that's cool, but not not for me, because because
Speaker 7: I needed help, and I've learned a lot of things
Speaker 7: like this along the way. And the part I wanted
Speaker 7: to share with you all about this is you've got
Speaker 7: to develop You've got to develop a sense of purpose.
Speaker 7: You have to develop a sense of purpose that's different. See,
Speaker 7: your purpose is created for you by God because when
Speaker 7: He created you as an individual from whatever two parents
Speaker 7: you may have, that's not important here. When he created you,
Speaker 7: he had something in mind for you, and it was
Speaker 7: a purpose. God has not created a single soul to
Speaker 7: become a criminal. God has never created a single soul
Speaker 7: to be a drug dealer. This came about through some
Speaker 7: decisions we made as sinners, and we stayed.
Speaker 2: In that place. But see what he created us. He
Speaker 2: has a wonderful idea for us.
Speaker 7: But God gives us human beings this thing called choice,
Speaker 7: and we have the power to decide. So you can
Speaker 7: decide if you're gonna adhere to the purpose that God
Speaker 7: created you and made you for, or you can go
Speaker 7: ahead and make some choices on your own. So like,
Speaker 7: if God wanted to give you a life and give
Speaker 7: it to come to you and give you life more abundantly,
Speaker 7: and that's his promise if you come to him, if
Speaker 7: you choose him, then cool. But if you say, well
Speaker 7: this ain't moving along fast enough, I'm gonna get my
Speaker 7: own life of abundance, I'm gonna start slinging.
Speaker 2: Well, guess what now, Tada.
Speaker 7: You made a decision and seek God's decisions and choices.
Speaker 7: The one thing I learned about them, God's decisions, choices,
Speaker 7: his voice, It has no sin in it. And it
Speaker 7: amazing how many people it came up to you and said,
Speaker 7: the Lord wanted me to do this to you, and
Speaker 7: I'm doing it. That God is punishing you and I'm
Speaker 7: doing this to you because God gonna see that you
Speaker 7: get your day.
Speaker 2: Who is this person?
Speaker 7: Who is this person that God all of a sudden
Speaker 7: gave this authority and power to God didn't get at
Speaker 7: the nobody, Man, nobody, this person don't have the right
Speaker 7: to hold you to your past, the right to make
Speaker 7: you pay. So who makes them pay when they make mistakes?
Speaker 7: Because they all make them. So when I say you
Speaker 7: have to have a sense of you have to develop
Speaker 7: a strong sense of purpose. That means you have to
Speaker 7: strongly get in touch with your creator to find out
Speaker 7: what the purpose you were created for. See, it's two
Speaker 7: things that I had to learn along the way. My
Speaker 7: career was what I was paid for. My calling is
Speaker 7: what I was made for. See, it's two different things, folks.
Speaker 7: It took me a long time to learn it. Some
Speaker 7: people think that they calling is to be a performer. Well,
Speaker 7: that's what you paid for, and a big part of
Speaker 7: your life is your performance. It's tied directly to your
Speaker 7: But what you made for, though, what you made for
Speaker 7: is to bring about some significant change in another human
Speaker 7: beings lives because we are all linked together in this chain.
Speaker 2: That's what you are here for.
Speaker 7: Everybody has a purpose to do something wonderful, meaningful, or
Speaker 7: impactful for another person. You think the God that invented
Speaker 7: the airplane was merely inventing the airplane so he could fly. Now,
Speaker 7: his purpose was to become an inventor, to come up
Speaker 7: with this invention so he could fly and we all fly.
Speaker 5: See.
Speaker 7: Sometimes God will make you successful so you can become successful,
Speaker 7: so you can turn around to teach other people how
Speaker 7: to become successful. God save people, so you can turn
Speaker 7: around it tell other people how wonderful it is to
Speaker 7: be saved. You see how this thing work. That's what
Speaker 7: we have to do as people. And it's nothing that
Speaker 7: we have to go and discover. We have to go
Speaker 7: and develop it. But if you have a discovery with
Speaker 7: your purpose, it's simply because here's it. If you haven't
Speaker 7: discovered your purpose, it's simply because you have not contacted
Speaker 7: the creator and maker of your soul to ask and
Speaker 7: find out why you were created. It's as simple as that.
Speaker 7: If you buy a toyota, there's an owner's manual on
Speaker 7: the inside that will tell you everything you know how
Speaker 7: to best operate your toyota, how to make it work,
Speaker 7: what to do.
Speaker 2: They got a trouble shooting section.
Speaker 7: Your faith is the same thing as an owner's manual
Speaker 7: in your car. Open up that book, man, find out
Speaker 7: how to jumpstart your life, how to troubleshoot it and
Speaker 7: get on with your life, and find out your purpose
Speaker 7: and develop a strong sense of purpose.
Speaker 1: All right, Okay, you're listening.
Speaker 7: Show ladies, gentlemen, truck drivers, bosses, warner bees, people in construction,
Speaker 7: bridge workers, school crossing guards. You know, man, I had
Speaker 7: a school crossing guard one time. I never met a
Speaker 7: person more evil. Why are you a hateful person leading
Speaker 7: the kids cross the street? All of us felt in
Speaker 7: endangered every time she put the stop sign up because
Speaker 7: I felt like she was trying to kill us. I
Speaker 7: really did, man, she was an evil crossing God cars
Speaker 7: be coming.
Speaker 2: She waited the.
Speaker 7: Last minute throw that sign out. You here, everybody in
Speaker 7: the crosswalks started crying and running. I was just I
Speaker 7: don't know why I thought of that just now, but
Speaker 7: that's how my mind was. Just thought I'd let y'all
Speaker 7: in there. This is Steve Harvey Martin show. Be Grateful today.
Speaker 7: Y'all had long conversation with God. Really spent some time
Speaker 7: thanking him in some morning to do the same thing.
Speaker 7: Just take a couple of minutes, man out to day.
Speaker 7: Close your eyes. You ain't got to just thinking you
Speaker 7: can do that with your eyes open. I ain't telling
Speaker 7: to tell you how to do it. I'm just asking
Speaker 7: you to do it.
Speaker 2: That's all.

Speaker 10: Love Officer, Steve Harvey.
Speaker 1: You're listening Steve Harvey Morning Show.
Speaker 10: Time now for us the c l oh, the chief
Speaker 10: love opposite of the Cloe, as a nephew calls him,
Speaker 10: you ready, Clo Stavid?
Speaker 2: All right?
Speaker 10: This one is from Marcus, an iHeartRadio app listener. Marcus says,
Speaker 10: I've been married for four years, but I think my
Speaker 10: wife had sex with a guy from my gym. I
Speaker 10: was working out one morning and there were only two
Speaker 10: other people in the gym. One of the guys came
Speaker 10: over and said he recognized me from a picture on
Speaker 10: social media.
Speaker 1: He asked if I knew a guy named Bo. I
Speaker 1: told him that Bo is a relative.
Speaker 10: He said he messed around with Bo's sister a few
Speaker 10: months ago, but he hasn't seen or.
Speaker 1: Talked to Bo lately. Well, Bo's sister is my wife.
Speaker 10: My wife denied everything, and Bo wouldn't confirm or deny
Speaker 10: what I need answers.
Speaker 1: So how should I handle this? Clo woo?
Speaker 7: Well, you could just pull in with ass whoop it,
Speaker 7: stop it. Dotta get somebody to talk it.
Speaker 2: Uh huh, hold on, man, hold what wait a minute?
Speaker 5: What you doing?
Speaker 2: So Shirley explain it to me again?
Speaker 1: Okay?
Speaker 10: So he was at the gym working out one one morning.
Speaker 10: There were only two other people in the gym. One
Speaker 10: of the guys came over and said he recognized him
Speaker 10: from a picture on social media.
Speaker 2: He recognized Marcus.
Speaker 10: Yes, yes, yes, okay. He asked if I knew a
Speaker 10: guy named Bo. I told him that Bo is a relative.
Speaker 10: He said he messed around with Bo's sister a few
Speaker 10: months ago, but he hasn't seen or talked to Bo lately. Well,
Speaker 10: Bo's sister is my wife. My wife denied everything. Bo
Speaker 10: wouldn't confirm or deny what happened, and I need answers.
Speaker 2: He said, hold hold of dog.
Speaker 7: You let a dude come up to you in a
Speaker 7: gym with some social media mess to ask you, did
Speaker 7: you know a guy named Bo? Because he messed around
Speaker 7: with his sister and he ain't seen him in a while.
Speaker 7: So now the throwaway line is he messed around with
Speaker 7: Bo's sisters now that happens to be your wife. First
Speaker 7: of all, he could be lying, and number two, which
Speaker 7: I think he is, because ain't no way in the
Speaker 7: hell this dude would come up to a man's wife
Speaker 7: and make this statement if he thought it were true.
Speaker 7: So I would be very careful man, before you go
Speaker 7: at your wife with all this hocus pokers from this
Speaker 7: guy at the GM on social media.
Speaker 10: But what if what if the guy didn't know that
Speaker 10: Bo's sister was his wife? Well, I'm pretty sure he
Speaker 10: would he wouldn't know that.
Speaker 6: But what.
Speaker 7: First of all, if you just trying to meet both,
Speaker 7: why would you go up to a dude and go
Speaker 7: I used to mess with his sister.
Speaker 2: Now you're just trying to find both.
Speaker 7: Man, can we whoop his hands and apologize if it
Speaker 7: went wrong? See if you pull in on his ass.
Speaker 7: It's like what I said in the beginning, We're gonna
Speaker 7: get your truth a lot quicker exactly, because all you
Speaker 7: got to do is just start whooping his ass because
Speaker 7: he said he slept with your wife, so you had
Speaker 7: a right to whoop somebody asked who come up to
Speaker 7: you and say that? And then we can get down
Speaker 7: to the bottom of the truth. We find out if
Speaker 7: he really know bold he trying to let you know
Speaker 7: he slept with your wife?
Speaker 2: What if that's what you're trying to let me know?
Speaker 5: Thank you?
Speaker 2: And here's this ass woman.
Speaker 1: All right, we're moving on.
Speaker 10: Tanisha and Charlotte's yeah, bon nose Tanisha and Charlotte clo
Speaker 10: says I was free and fold.
Speaker 2: Why don't we do this?
Speaker 1: Why don't you just asked bowl Bog.
Speaker 7: He's supposed to be his cousin. Why don't you just
Speaker 7: go ask both did his boy sleep with his sister?
Speaker 7: And if he slept with him before y'all got married, dog, it.
Speaker 1: Might not be a problem few months ago. Okay, Well
Speaker 1: they've been married for four years.
Speaker 7: Oh yeah, well else, I ass now, I only know
Speaker 7: how you didn't issue it at the gym? What wasn't
Speaker 7: number three people in there?
Speaker 1: Truth?

Speaker 10: most popular holiday traditions. That is interesting, even though I've
Speaker 10: never written to Santa. Even though we live in a

Speaker 10: children still hand write letters to Santa, as opposed to
Speaker 10: a more modern approach like email. And really, and what's

Speaker 5: got it for you here. It is to straw every.
Speaker 10: Letter, subject I am emotionally drained. Just Stephen Shureley. I'm
Speaker 10: a forty two year old single mother of a son
Speaker 10: that is twenty years old. My son's girlfriend just had
Speaker 10: a baby that is fair skinned, and they both are chocolate.
Speaker 10: The girl is twenty one and a dancer at a
Speaker 10: bar across town. She says she's not a stripper, but
Speaker 10: that's all she says. My son is afraid to ask
Speaker 10: the girl for a paternity test, so I did. When
Speaker 10: my son went to visit the baby, she jumped on
Speaker 10: him and then called me and said, if I keep
Speaker 10: putting my son up to this foolishness, I would be next.
Speaker 10: I called her mother, who happens to go to church
Speaker 10: with me, and I told her that her daughter is disrespectful.
Speaker 10: She was not happy about the phone call and asked
Speaker 10: if we could talk in person, so I invited her over.
Speaker 10: She pulled up and ran up to my door and
Speaker 10: yelled for me to come outside. She jumped on me
Speaker 10: when I got in the front yard. I'm not a fighter,
Speaker 10: so we rolled around in the yard while I kept
Speaker 10: begging her to stop pulling my hair. My neighbor broke
Speaker 10: us up and I ran in. I called my son
Speaker 10: and he called his girlfriend on a three way and
Speaker 10: she said that I deserved to be beat up. I
Speaker 10: reported the incident to the police, and they wouldn't come
Speaker 10: out to do a report because it was between my
Speaker 10: son and his girlfriend. I just don't want my son
Speaker 10: to be caught up with a baby that isn't his.
Speaker 10: I told my son that we'll just get the baby
Speaker 10: one day and do a paternity test ourselves. Now it's
Speaker 10: like my son is turning against me and telling me
Speaker 10: to stay out of his business.
Speaker 2: I got beat up for him, and this.
Speaker 1: Is how he repays me.
Speaker 10: It's emotionally draining, and I only want what's best for him.
Speaker 10: Now he's planning to move in with this abusive woman
Speaker 10: and ruin his life. Am I supposed to step aside
Speaker 10: and let this girl and her mother make a fool
Speaker 10: out of my son? What can I do to shake
Speaker 10: some sense into him? Well, I don't know that there's
Speaker 10: anything you can do. You know, much more than what
Speaker 10: you've been doing right now, you know, unless you bring
Speaker 10: his dad into it or something. But you already said
Speaker 10: you're a single mother of this son. I know as
Speaker 10: a mom this is hard, and it's going to continue
Speaker 10: to be hard to watch your son get sucked in
Speaker 10: like this, but that's exactly what you're going to have
Speaker 10: to do. Step aside. You've tried everything, You've tried everything else.
Speaker 10: Nothing has worked for you. So unless you want to
Speaker 10: get another beat down from his crazy girlfriend and like
Speaker 10: you say, her and her mother make a fool out
Speaker 10: of you and all of that, you're going to have
Speaker 10: to do just what they say.
Speaker 1: Mind your own business.
Speaker 10: At this point, we know you love your son and
Speaker 10: you only want the best for him, that's quite obvious.
Speaker 1: But right now the stripper is his world.
Speaker 10: He's sprung, he's whipped all of the above, and he's
Speaker 10: trying not to hear anything you his mom have to say.
Speaker 10: And as much as this hurts, sometimes you just have
Speaker 10: to let go and let people learn their lessons themselves,
Speaker 10: because he's not listening right now to you. He's not
Speaker 10: listening to what you have to say. Experience is always
Speaker 10: the best teacher. Later on, if he finds out that
Speaker 10: the baby's not his and he's being played by this girl,
Speaker 10: I mean, so we don't even know that.
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, he he might still want to
Speaker 1: be with her, you know, that's the other thing.
Speaker 10: He might still want to be with her and help
Speaker 10: her raise the child, and yes, you could get the
Speaker 10: baby and get the paternity test on your own. You
Speaker 10: could do all of that, but you might lose your
Speaker 10: son and the process. But you've lost him already to
Speaker 10: this girl for right now anyway. So yeah, mom, I
Speaker 10: think you've done all you can. And your son didn't
Speaker 10: even defend you when his girlfriend beat you up, and
Speaker 10: that's really messed up.
Speaker 7: See, well, I read a different letter, seems like so.
Speaker 7: I guess I always see some ignans. So so I
Speaker 7: have a couple of questions. Nah, she's he mostly drained.
Speaker 7: It's a forty two year old single mother's son is twenty.
Speaker 7: Your son's girlfriend just had a baby that's fast skin,
Speaker 7: and they both ought you chak. Now, listen, we all
Speaker 7: know that, you know, through the chromosomes and all that stuff,
Speaker 7: that you can skip a generation and look like a
Speaker 7: grandmother or on or something and different colors. But we
Speaker 7: got to look into this though, two chocolate people having
Speaker 7: a light skinned baby.
Speaker 2: We need to look into this. I understand the girl
Speaker 2: is twenty one and a huh you don't add up on?
Speaker 2: I know, we got to look into it.
Speaker 3: Now.
Speaker 2: This girl is twenty one and a dancer at a
Speaker 2: bar across town. She says she's not a stripper. Let's
Speaker 2: discuss this for a minute.
Speaker 7: If you're a dancer at a bar, I think they
Speaker 7: stopped go go dancing a long time ago.
Speaker 2: You know where you be up in a cage on
Speaker 2: the end of the bar. I think they stopped at
Speaker 2: a long time ago.
Speaker 7: So if you're a dancer at a bar in today's society,
Speaker 7: you I said, take your clothes off, because I ain't
Speaker 7: go go boots. I ain't seen him in stores no
Speaker 7: more with the mini skirts, So I'm pretty show you
Speaker 7: a stripper. My son is afraid to ask this girl
Speaker 7: for a paternity test, so I did. Then, when your
Speaker 7: son went to visit the baby, she jumped on him
Speaker 7: and then called me and said, I keep putting my
Speaker 7: son up to this foolishness. I would be next. Okay,
Speaker 7: so she jumped on it. Okay, she's abusive. I called
Speaker 7: her mother and to hit a good part, I called
Speaker 7: his mother, who happened to go to church with me,
Speaker 7: and I told her that her daughter is disrespectful. Now see,
Speaker 7: listen to me. This is why I have a question,
Speaker 7: because it could go two ways. After he called the lady,
Speaker 7: she called the lady to go to church with her
Speaker 7: and told her that her.
Speaker 2: Daughter is disrespectful.
Speaker 7: She was not happy about the phone call and asked
Speaker 7: if we can talk in person, so I invited her over.
Speaker 7: Now I'm thinking right here, she's talking about the girl's mother.
Speaker 2: That's what I was thinking.
Speaker 7: That she was talking about the girl's mother. She called
Speaker 7: on the phone and talked to him person. So when
Speaker 7: I come back, I'm gonna tell you what I think happened.
Speaker 10: All right, we'll have part two of Steve's response coming
Speaker 10: up twenty three minutes after Strawberry letter, subject I am
Speaker 10: emotionally drained. We'll get back into it right after this.
Speaker 1: You're listening hard Morning show. All right, Come on, Steve, let's.
Speaker 10: Recap today's Strawberry letter, the subject I am emotionally drained.
Speaker 7: All right, we got a forty two year old ladies,
Speaker 7: got a twenty year old son that's dating a stripper
Speaker 7: who says she's not a stripple, she's a dancer at
Speaker 7: a ball. I don't know who keep their clothes on
Speaker 7: anymore these days? Why they dancing in bars? But hell,
Speaker 7: most of the women that go to balls is halfnked
Speaker 7: when they get there.
Speaker 2: So I already know.
Speaker 7: If you are dancer, you got to be stripping anyway.
Speaker 7: She says, she's not a stripper. Son is afraid to ask.
Speaker 7: They had a life and both of them child. Your
Speaker 7: son afraid to ask her the paternity test. So you
Speaker 7: asked the girl for a paternity test. When your son
Speaker 7: went over there to pick up the baby, the girl
Speaker 7: jumped on him and said, couldn't letting your mama put
Speaker 7: stuff like this in your head, And then told the mama,
Speaker 7: if you keep interfeit.
Speaker 2: In my business, you're gonna be next.
Speaker 7: So the lady who's forty two called her mother, the
Speaker 7: stripper's mama, who happens to go to church with me,
Speaker 7: and I told her that her daughter's disrespectful. She was
Speaker 7: not happy about the phone call and asked if we
Speaker 7: can talk in person.
Speaker 2: So I invited her over.
Speaker 7: Now right here, I'm thinking this is all she's talking
Speaker 7: to the stripper's mother.
Speaker 2: She pulled up, ran to my door and yelled for
Speaker 2: me to come outside.
Speaker 10: Now.
Speaker 2: If this is not the mother, if this is the stripper,
Speaker 2: then we're dealing with the people.
Speaker 7: That person that don't know how to tell stories, because
Speaker 7: we have some information that's confusing.
Speaker 5: No I think.
Speaker 7: See, I'm thinking she's talking about the girl's mother according
Speaker 7: to this letter so far, but then later on she
Speaker 7: changes and it makes it sound like it was a
Speaker 7: little girl that jumped on her. So I'm confused about
Speaker 7: the lady writing a letter anyway, That's all I'm saying.
Speaker 7: So when she came, she told you to yelling for
Speaker 7: you to come outside. She jumped on me when I
Speaker 7: got in the front yard. Now I'm not a fighter,
Speaker 7: so we rolled around in the yard. Well, I kept
Speaker 7: begging her to stop pulling my hair. Now, let me
Speaker 7: teach you something, man. Begging is not a good fight technique.
Speaker 7: It usually does not work out for the begar because
Speaker 7: it empowers the person that's issueing the ass whipping. So
Speaker 7: it's best not to empower then with please please stop
Speaker 7: you kicking me. You whipping my ass too good? This
Speaker 7: is about this is not what I do. I'm not
Speaker 7: a fighter. So it makes them go harder because they, oh, yeah,
Speaker 7: I'm not in the hands I know. So I would
Speaker 7: just suggest that next time you get in the fight.
Speaker 2: Please do not beg. It don't look good. It ain't
Speaker 2: no need to beg. An ant take the ass whoop.
Speaker 1: One of the other picks one.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you.
Speaker 7: Get your ass whoop and stop this begging quietly, not
Speaker 7: finn do this to be shame me and bass me
Speaker 7: and believe me, and be sure to be while you
Speaker 7: beating my asss just make it look like you trying.
Speaker 7: She got here too. She grabbing your hair, you grab
Speaker 7: her hair. Anyway, my neighbor broke us up and I
Speaker 7: ran inside. I called my son and he called his
Speaker 7: girlfriend on the threeway and she said that I deserve
Speaker 7: to be beat up.
Speaker 2: See I'm thinking when she ran in the.
Speaker 7: House and called her son, he called his girlfriend on
Speaker 7: the three way and she said I deserve to be
Speaker 7: beat up, which made me think it was the girl's
Speaker 7: mama that was.
Speaker 2: In the yard fight the whole time. Because we ran
Speaker 2: in the house and got the.
Speaker 7: Girl on the three way, the girl would have been
Speaker 7: in the yard still fighting the mama.
Speaker 5: See.
Speaker 2: So I reported the incident to the police, and.
Speaker 7: They wouldn't come out to do a report because of
Speaker 7: between my son and his girlfriend.
Speaker 2: This is another piece of important information.
Speaker 7: Anytime you call the police and they don't come out
Speaker 7: to handle a domestic dispute that was a fight.
Speaker 2: You must live deep, deep, deep, in the hood.
Speaker 7: Because police have to come out to investigate any domestic violence,
Speaker 7: especially if neighbors involved breaking up fight.
Speaker 2: So now we already know the police ain't coming. That's
Speaker 2: a hood, thank you very much.
Speaker 7: And then she says, and they wouldn't come out because
Speaker 7: of between my son and his girlfriend.
Speaker 2: I just don't want son to be caught up with
Speaker 2: a baby that isn't his. I understand that. I told
Speaker 2: my son.
Speaker 7: Would just get the baby one day and do the
Speaker 7: paternity test ourselves. Now it's like my son is turning
Speaker 7: against me and telling me to stay out.
Speaker 2: Of his business.
Speaker 7: Well you should. I got beat up for him, and
Speaker 7: this is how he repays me. No, you got beat
Speaker 7: up because you went out the house. See when people
Speaker 7: call you out, you said you're not a fighter. See
Speaker 7: when people drive up to your house and say come outside.
Speaker 2: Come out here, No, no, meet me in the front them.
Speaker 2: It's fighting words. Why did you take your non fighting
Speaker 2: ass out there?
Speaker 1: She would never think that the girl would jump on.
Speaker 7: Her set with girl mama that go to her church,
Speaker 7: whooped her ass. Shirley stops saying the girl that's what
Speaker 7: I got. Now he's planning to move in with this
Speaker 7: abusive woman and ruin his life. Am I supposed to
Speaker 7: step aside and let this girl and her mother make
Speaker 7: a fool out of myself? What can I do to
Speaker 7: shake something?
Speaker 2: All right?
Speaker 7: First of all, to me explain some t. This is
Speaker 7: not going to ruin your son's life. This is a
Speaker 7: lesson that both of you. You're gonna have to let
Speaker 7: him learn. Like Shirley said, the best lesson is a
Speaker 7: bout lesson. You're gonna let him have to buy this way,
Speaker 7: let him go move in with the girl. You be
Speaker 7: a loving grandmother. When the baby come over, swab the
Speaker 7: baby mouth, put the swab in a plastic bag and
Speaker 7: get a damn DNA test.
Speaker 2: Then when the result come back, don't say nothing, kill sir.
Speaker 3: Just leave.
Speaker 2: Get copies of it and post it on Facebook. Let
Speaker 2: the church many may man, Thank you for calling.

Speaker 10: Show Rich on Facebook, Steve Hey, Steve. About two years ago,
Speaker 10: my mom passed away and that was devastating for all
Speaker 10: of us. Now, however, it sure looks like my pops
Speaker 10: has bounced back as of late. He's been out and
Speaker 10: about with a way younger, fine woman that can't be
Speaker 10: more than twenty five years old at the age of
Speaker 10: sixty eight. I can't blame my pops for shooting his
Speaker 10: shot and scoring, and he's done pretty well taking care
Speaker 10: of his money. All that said, Pop said he's bringing
Speaker 10: over his new boot for Christmas. Now, my sisters are
Speaker 10: not happy about her, and they said she is going
Speaker 10: to blank around and find out.
Speaker 1: But I just want to keep you.
Speaker 10: But I just want to keep the peace for Christmas.
Speaker 10: And oh what gift should I give her?
Speaker 2: Well, probably need to get a helmet.
Speaker 14: Because the sister this big daddy proud though, now don't
Speaker 14: hurt daddy finnis.
Speaker 7: Well, don't care the girls. First of all, two problems
Speaker 7: here you ain't they mama? And number two, why do
Speaker 7: you want our daddy and you younger than us?
Speaker 3: Yes?
Speaker 7: Sact they probably gonna be about the same age because
Speaker 7: you know he's forty.
Speaker 2: Three years older, so chances are these kids is older
Speaker 2: than her.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 2: The girl, she gonna feel.
Speaker 14: The raft man, yeah, all the people his age is sick. Yeah,
Speaker 14: he wants something.
Speaker 1: And what does she want with him?
Speaker 2: His money?
Speaker 7: M m yeah, because he's even have done good by
Speaker 7: hisself and you know he probably kept himself in shape,
Speaker 7: and you know he gonna bring the girl buy for Christmas.
Speaker 7: Ain't nothing y'all can do about it.
Speaker 5: They just gotta be yeah.
Speaker 7: Yeah, but you're gonna mess up your relationship with your
Speaker 7: father because you're gonna make him have to pick between
Speaker 7: y'all and he gonna go with this young girl.
Speaker 2: Now m h ooh, all you got do his treat
Speaker 2: a pleasant? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah, just be kind.
Speaker 2: You do look like if you want to get a gift,
Speaker 2: get us some get up.
Speaker 6: What kind of.
Speaker 5: Well it's just.
Speaker 7: Wonder woman. You don't get us some character. Give us
Speaker 7: some sneakers with some lights on them. All right, some
Speaker 7: fresh notebooks?
Speaker 10: I think we might have time for one more. My
Speaker 10: parents always encouraged me to work hard for what I wanted.
Speaker 10: Over the weekend, my sister and I were talking about
Speaker 10: Christmas plans and talking about tightened budgets for the holidays
Speaker 10: when she blurted out, thank god Mom and Dad took
Speaker 10: care of school for me. I was like, what, While,
Speaker 10: I'm not hurting finance and am happy where I am
Speaker 10: in life, but but come on, I worked my behind
Speaker 10: off to go to college, got loans and and finally
Speaker 10: close to paying them off, and my parents just paid
Speaker 10: for my sister's college education. I'm mad about this, So,
Speaker 10: Uncle Steve, I can't decide if it makes me angry
Speaker 10: or hurts my feelings more.
Speaker 1: Do I bring it up?
Speaker 7: No, you don't have to bring it up. Your parents
Speaker 7: knew that your sister wasn't you. If your parents treated
Speaker 7: all their children equally and the same, your sister probably
Speaker 7: wouldn't even be in college because your sister don't have
Speaker 7: the same makeup that you have, and they recognize that,
Speaker 7: And so they're paying for it. You know, just understand
Speaker 7: and thank God that you are who you are, and
Speaker 7: don't and don't and don't and and don't get mad
Speaker 7: because your blessing is you. You had the skill set
Speaker 7: in the mindset to do it. Now you're gonna block
Speaker 7: your blessing by Hayden because she got because because they
Speaker 7: paid for her.
Speaker 2: What so mm hmm, she is not you and that's
Speaker 2: recognized it.
Speaker 1: They both have a college education. Yeah, that's the blessing too.
Speaker 7: You know, you almost got these loans paid off and
Speaker 7: you did it yourself. That's an accompanient. So instead of
Speaker 7: being mad at your parents, be proud of yourself. Thank
Speaker 7: God Daddy brought you through. Wow, so amazing how people
Speaker 7: block the blessing by looking at Instead of looking at
Speaker 7: what you have, you focus on what you don't have.
Speaker 2: Yeah, good point.
Speaker 1: All right, great advice. Thank you, So don't bring it up. Please.
Speaker 10: Coming up at twenty minutes after the hour, we'll have
Speaker 10: more of the Steve Harvey Morning Show right after this.

Speaker 10: Would you rather coming up in forty nine minutes after?
Speaker 10: It's our last break and we'll close out the show
Speaker 10: with the one and only Steve Harvey right after this.
Speaker 1: You're listening Harvey Morning Show. All right, here we are, guys,
Speaker 1: last break of the day on this Tuesday. Steve, you
Speaker 1: have some closing remarks.
Speaker 6: I know you do.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know.
Speaker 7: I want to remind everybody of something that God created
Speaker 7: us all for greatness. All of us were created in
Speaker 7: his likeness. All of us were created to be an
Speaker 7: example of what God can do in people's lives.
Speaker 2: We were all created for this.
Speaker 7: What happens along the way is we make decisions because
Speaker 7: God gave us the power of choice, we make decisions
Speaker 7: that people as people that counter act what God really
Speaker 7: intended for us.
Speaker 2: And one of the reasons we counteract.
Speaker 7: What God intended for us is because the devil's main
Speaker 7: job the opposition is to not allow you to reach
Speaker 7: your potential. See, the devil don't ever want you to
Speaker 7: reach your potential, because then he'll have another child of
Speaker 7: God out there spreading the word and showing off and
Speaker 7: be an example of what light can do and what
Speaker 7: love can do, and what the power of prayer can do.
Speaker 7: So his job to make each and every one of
Speaker 7: us fall by the wayside. That's his constant mission in life.
Speaker 7: To make us think we're not worthy, to make us
Speaker 7: think we can't, to make us think it ain't possible,
Speaker 7: to make us look at our environment, to make us
Speaker 7: feel like, well, it's because I'm this, I.
Speaker 2: Can't be that. Ain't none of that true? None of
Speaker 2: that is true.
Speaker 7: I bought a book the other day by Joel Oldstein
Speaker 7: because I was listening to him over the weekend and
Speaker 7: he since this.
Speaker 2: He was talking about his new book called Next Level Thinking,
Speaker 2: and I bought the book.
Speaker 7: And because I constantly try to reinforce myself. As successful
Speaker 7: as you may think I am, I still have a
Speaker 7: ways to go and I will always try to improve myself.
Speaker 7: And people like Joel Olstein, Bishop Jake's, Bishop Almah, Bishop
Speaker 7: Getty's down there in North Carolina. My boy, you know,
Speaker 7: it's a lot Charles Jenkins up in Chicago. It's a
Speaker 7: lot of dudes. Man that called me to make sure
Speaker 7: I'm okay. Check in on me, Tyler, check in on me,
Speaker 7: Doctor Phil, check in on me. I got a lot
Speaker 7: of people check in on me, man, make sure I'm okay.
Speaker 7: I was reading his book because it's just I just
Speaker 7: needed some more information. And one of the things I
Speaker 7: had learned from his book in the first chapter, the
Speaker 7: title of his chapter is be a barrier Breaker. Be
Speaker 7: a barrier Breaker, And throughout the book it just talks
Speaker 7: about your surroundings, your environment. That because you're from a
Speaker 7: family where ain't nobody never made it out, don't mean
Speaker 7: that you have to not be one of them, that
Speaker 7: you have to be one of those and not make
Speaker 7: it out. Because you come from a hood that don't
Speaker 7: have a whole lot of millionaires made from that hood.
Speaker 7: That don't mean that you can't be a barrier breaker
Speaker 7: and be one of the millionaires from the hood. Just
Speaker 7: because nobody on your block ever went to college, don't
Speaker 7: mean you be the first world. Maybe nobody in your
Speaker 7: family ever went to school, you're the first world.
Speaker 5: Maybe nobody in.
Speaker 7: Your family ever became a supervisor at a post office
Speaker 7: or the FedEx or UPS or anyplace else. Don't mean
Speaker 7: that you can't You can become a barrier breaker. But
Speaker 7: see what a lot of us do is we get
Speaker 7: so immersed in our environment that we adapt to our environment,
Speaker 7: and we must we act like this is it?
Speaker 2: Well, if God had wanted me to be rich, I'd
Speaker 2: have been born rich.
Speaker 5: What what did you say?
Speaker 7: I heard of God say that if God had wanted
Speaker 7: me to be rich, I would have been born rich.
Speaker 7: So let me ask you something, brother, all these people
Speaker 7: that have gone from poverty to richest, what was their
Speaker 7: excuse or what mindset that they use to become a
Speaker 7: barrier breaker, to break the barrier of poverty to become
Speaker 7: well off. I chose to be a barrier breaker. I
Speaker 7: knew what my family was. I loved my family dearly
Speaker 7: and still do. But what my family had I didn't want.
Speaker 7: As much as I loved my mother.
Speaker 1: And father, what my father was and how hard I
Speaker 1: saw him.
Speaker 7: Work, I didn't want that. I wanted something else. Now,
Speaker 7: do I appreciate the work after Keith put in me?
Speaker 7: Most certainly do that I appreciate the faith and the
Speaker 7: fear of God that my mama put in me, or
Speaker 7: I most certainly do. But I didn't want to be
Speaker 7: the one sitting at the church on the usher board.
Speaker 7: I didn't want that. I didn't want to work as
Speaker 7: hard as my father and make the same money as
Speaker 7: my father. I wanted to something else. I wanted to
Speaker 7: be a barrier breaker. A barrier breaker. And one of
Speaker 7: the things he talked about in the book is that
Speaker 7: so often we let our environment and how we were
Speaker 7: raised and other people's expectation of us set limits in
Speaker 7: our life. He was saying that we adapt to what's
Speaker 7: around us. So what he said in the book I
Speaker 7: wanted to share with you all.
Speaker 2: In the book, he.
Speaker 7: Said that if you take an oak tree seed, the
Speaker 7: seed of an oak tree, and you plant this seed
Speaker 7: from this oak tree in a two foot pot, that
Speaker 7: oak tree will never become what it.
Speaker 2: Was created to be if you leave it in that pot,
Speaker 2: not because there's.
Speaker 7: Something wrong with the seed, but because of the environment
Speaker 7: is in. Did you hear what I just said. There
Speaker 7: is nothing wrong with you. The problem is your environment.
Speaker 7: If you stay in the environment, you'll never grow. But
Speaker 7: you can choose to become a barrier breaker and get
Speaker 7: out of any environment that you in. You can escape poverty,
Speaker 7: you can escape the hood, you can escape bad thinking people,
Speaker 7: you can escape the dope game.
Speaker 2: You can become non addicted to drugs.
Speaker 7: You can stop being an alcoholic, you can stop with
Speaker 7: God's help.
Speaker 2: If you take an.
Speaker 7: Oak tree seed and you plant it in a two
Speaker 7: foot pot, that tree will never become what it was
Speaker 7: created to be if you leave it in the pot,
Speaker 7: not because there's something wrong with the seed, but because
Speaker 7: of the environment is in. You got to change your environment.
Speaker 7: You fine, you got to see you got everything you
Speaker 7: need to grow?
Speaker 5: You did?
Speaker 2: Those are my closing room.
Speaker 1: Drop it, baby, drop it.
Speaker 2: Yes, sir, get out that environment.
Speaker 4: Man.
