Speaker 1: the water go. Come come on your fad uh huh,
Speaker 1: I sure will. Good morning everybody. You're listening to the voice,
Speaker 1: Come on now dig me want and only Steve Harvey,
Speaker 1: God what radio show man? What you're doing with it?
Speaker 1: Trying to do the very very best I can with it?
Speaker 1: I really am. You know I get tired sometimes on
Speaker 1: my journey. I'm not gonna kid you. UM. Trying to
Speaker 1: make something about yourself is a task. UM. If you
Speaker 1: want to attempt to do something and and and understand
Speaker 1: going in that that. If the thing you're trying to
Speaker 1: do is to improve yourself, to better your position, to
Speaker 1: better your relationship, your family, anything, you're trying to be
Speaker 1: a better you. You're trying to make more money, you're
Speaker 1: trying to get it together, you're trying to change If
Speaker 1: any of those things are in your hopes and dreams.
Speaker 1: Know this right here, you are about to face some challenges.
Speaker 1: But you might as well go ahead anyway and face
Speaker 1: those challenges, because if you don't, you have a whole
Speaker 1: other set of challenges to face. You know, it's a
Speaker 1: it's a It's an amazing thing. Man, How people sit
Speaker 1: around and they watch other people strike out to become successful.
Speaker 1: And they sit in the stands watching these people play
Speaker 1: out these games, and they and they and they criticize,
Speaker 1: They boo, they laugh at their efforts and everything, and
Speaker 1: they talk about the fairies. He missed that game when
Speaker 1: it shot. Boy, he sucked. Man, he did this. He
Speaker 1: ain't worth that. I hear people who sit in stands
Speaker 1: who criticize people who are out there on the playing field. Now,
Speaker 1: when you're on the plane, feel you have a set
Speaker 1: of challenges in front of you. You're going to be
Speaker 1: open to criticism. You're going to be open to ridicule.
Speaker 1: You're going to be talked about when you don't know
Speaker 1: the people who are talking about you. Now, here's the
Speaker 1: upside to being the player on the field that's facing
Speaker 1: all the challenges, to criticisms, the laughing the joke to
Speaker 1: being talked about. He has something going for him. This person, boy, woman, child, girl,
Speaker 1: man has an opportunity to win. They have an opportunity
Speaker 1: to win. And then the game of life. Just because
Speaker 1: you lose one of the games, or you lose one
Speaker 1: of the matches, it don't mean you've lost. You don't
Speaker 1: get put out. You keep playing. And when you're playing,
Speaker 1: here's the upside. You have the opportunity to win. And
Speaker 1: but guess what, You're gonna win some of the matches.
Speaker 1: You're gonna win some of the points. You're gonna make
Speaker 1: some of the dunks. You're gonna hit some of them
Speaker 1: over the wall. You're gonna hit some of them out
Speaker 1: the park. You're gonna score some goals. You will if
Speaker 1: you're playing the game. Here's the problem with the people
Speaker 1: who don't face the criticism, who nobody boos or cheers for,
Speaker 1: who sits in the stands and knows neither victory nor defeat.
Speaker 1: Those people, without realizing it, are facing a set of
Speaker 1: challenges also. And the challenges they're facing is how I'm
Speaker 1: gonna live with myself? What I'm gonna do? Now? What
Speaker 1: direction am I going in? Where am I gonna live.
Speaker 1: Wonder what job will hire me, Wonder if I can
Speaker 1: get paid for criticizing? All woe is me. I can't
Speaker 1: find the purpose in my life. And man, I'm just
Speaker 1: waking up in a state of confusion. I don't know
Speaker 1: what to do. Now, let me ask you something which
Speaker 1: one of them said, of challenges you rather be faced with.
Speaker 1: Because if I'm on the flow playing, if I'm on
Speaker 1: the field playing, if I'm out on the court playing,
Speaker 1: then guess what I got a chance at winning? But
Speaker 1: guess what I'm doing every day while I'm playing. I'm strategizing.
Speaker 1: I'm waking up with a purpose. I'm waking up trying
Speaker 1: to come up with another angle. I'm in pursuit of
Speaker 1: a goal every single day. Versus the people in the
Speaker 1: stands who know neither victory nor defeat. Get in the game.
Speaker 1: Face the challenges. Better yourself, better your wife, better your children,
Speaker 1: better your condition, better your employment status, better your job,
Speaker 1: better your career. Take a shot. Come on, man, what
Speaker 1: you're waiting on? Because the alternative is to watch other
Speaker 1: people play the game? You know? And I just do
Speaker 1: Sometimes Sometimes I just I get Forbes magazine or Money magazine,
Speaker 1: or sometimes I still grab a copy of rob Report.
Speaker 1: I just flipped through it just to see get I
Speaker 1: used to get these this book called Unique Homes. Unique
Speaker 1: Homes is a magazine that just has a lot of
Speaker 1: extravagant houses that's on sale across the country, across the world.
Speaker 1: I used to flip through. Man, let me just see, man,
Speaker 1: what the people that's playing the game out there doing.
Speaker 1: Stop watching other people become successful when you could very
Speaker 1: easily be you if you make the decision. But when
Speaker 1: you make the decision to become successful, get ready for
Speaker 1: a series of challenges. I think it's more difficult not
Speaker 1: to accept the challenge. I think it's for me. This
Speaker 1: is just for me. It may not be the case
Speaker 1: for you. For me, I think it's far more difficult
Speaker 1: to wake up and just see how life gonna go today,
Speaker 1: because man, it could just deal you any kind of
Speaker 1: hand today. You understand, I don't like you know spades.
Speaker 1: Let's let's talk a card game, folks, down the game
Speaker 1: of spades. Really, man, it ain't a whole lot you
Speaker 1: can do if you don't get no spades. Really, it's
Speaker 1: a little couple of little strategies you've gotta do. But
Speaker 1: you can have all this age, keen, queen, diamond all
Speaker 1: you want, but man, you ain't got no spades. They're
Speaker 1: cutting them. You're in trouble. Be it whist different game.
Speaker 1: You can create what's in your hand. You got dealt
Speaker 1: a hand too, But you can create a hand. You
Speaker 1: can call a trump. You can make diamonds you're spades.
Speaker 1: You can make hard to clubs your spades. That's what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. That's what it is. You can do something
Speaker 1: with it. It's a different game, man, you can strategize.
Speaker 1: I would rather have a say so in my life
Speaker 1: than to wake up every day and just see how
Speaker 1: it's going. I think it's more difficult to not accept
Speaker 1: the challenge to be something than it is to accept
Speaker 1: the challenge to be something. I think it's more difficult
Speaker 1: to sit around and not be nothing. I think it's
Speaker 1: harder to watch everybody's life going somewhere but mine. I
Speaker 1: think it would be very difficult for me to sit
Speaker 1: here and hear them talking about other people and never
Speaker 1: mentioned my name. I would be difficult for me to
Speaker 1: see everybody rise and getting promotions accept me. That would
Speaker 1: be difficult for me. It may not be for you,
Speaker 1: but for me, it would be quite challenging. I would
Speaker 1: rather accept the challenge of making something out of my
Speaker 1: life than to sit there and criticize those and then
Speaker 1: watch and see how my life just may go. Okay,
Speaker 1: just a thought. Today you're listening to ladies and gentlemen,
Speaker 1: boys and girls, pets, animal trainers, members of Peter. I

Speaker 1: I feel like some people needs me right down there
Speaker 1: where they are. Yes, so I can let the ass
Speaker 1: get it back. Because sometimes I don't go high for
Speaker 1: teaching moments, and I think, yeah, I think that we

Speaker 1: we're gonna switch gears here and other Just strange entertainment news.
Speaker 1: Peter says the term pet pet is derogatory, and the
Speaker 1: word companion, so there's your replacement. Word Tommy is a
Speaker 1: more appropriate term. A representative from Peter stated a lot
Speaker 1: of people who have dogs or cats will call them
Speaker 1: pets and refer to themselves as owners, and this implies
Speaker 1: that the animals are a possession. Like a car, they
Speaker 1: are a possession. And Peter is stupid. You damn like
Speaker 1: I own you. Yeah, don't work, I'm feeding you. You
Speaker 1: ain't paid now one of these vet bills. I own
Speaker 1: your ass. I am matched. That's what this is. Man.
Speaker 1: I'm so sick of these people. And the animals are
Speaker 1: not complaining. All right, let's get the same the same percass.
Speaker 1: People have slaves now. They won't talk about it, ain't
Speaker 1: write their own no, damn buddy, man, y'all miss me
Speaker 1: with this year, all right? Come to catch up on
Speaker 1: today's headlines, we go trip. Oh boys, he was on it, boy,
Speaker 1: this is a trip with the news, all right. Starting
Speaker 1: out with the bad news. The official death toll from
Speaker 1: coronavirus in China has topped one thousand. That's right, with
Speaker 1: forty two thousand people infected and under treatment. They are
Speaker 1: thirteen confirmed coronavirus cases in the United States. Today's in
Speaker 1: New Hampshire Primary. While the Poles seemed to suggest that
Speaker 1: the top two contenders are still Pete Booty Jadge and
Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders, Joe Biden, Amy Klobcher, Tom Styr and Andrew
Speaker 1: Yang all hoping to make impressive surgeries in a surprise.
Speaker 1: By the way, the first place to vote in the
Speaker 1: Granite Date is a place called Dick phil Notch, and
Speaker 1: three of the five votes cast there were from Michael Bloomberg.
Speaker 1: He's not even on the ballot. Also, Amy Klobch just
Speaker 1: seems to be doing well as well. The Iowa Democratic
Speaker 1: Party has received requests mean while from Buddhajag and Sanders
Speaker 1: campaigns to recanvas the results of last week's caucus over there,
Speaker 1: it's obvious that the whole at Mishap mess is still
Speaker 1: rather embarrassing. The Iowa Democratic Party Chair Troy Price, it's
Speaker 1: safe to say this was not the caucus that the
Speaker 1: hundreds of thousands of Iowa Democrats to serve. The parties
Speaker 1: are viewing the request and decide by tomorrow if a
Speaker 1: recanvass is necessary. The Trump White House announcing a four
Speaker 1: point a trillion dollar budget plan that's trillion with a
Speaker 1: T that the President claims would bring the federal deficit
Speaker 1: close to zero, and at a gathering of some thirty
Speaker 1: Republican governors yesterday, Trump insisted that some of the most
Speaker 1: critical programs will not be touched. We're not touching Medicare.
Speaker 1: We want to keep Medicare. We're not touching social Security.
Speaker 1: We're making our country stronger again. We're not decreasing Medicaide. However,
Speaker 1: the Wall Street Journal reports that Trump's budget actually includes
Speaker 1: steep cuts in social safety net programs like Medicare, Medicaid,
Speaker 1: and Social Security, while he ups funds for the military.
Speaker 1: Looks like the head of SEAPACK or the Conservative Political
Speaker 1: Action Conferences, suggesting that some members of his organization might
Speaker 1: be violent people. In the wake of Republican Senator Mit
Speaker 1: Romney's breaking rank and voting to convict Donald Trump on
Speaker 1: one of the impeachment articles lodged against him, Seepack's match
Speaker 1: Schlap said Sunday that he would be afraid for Senator
Speaker 1: Romney's physical safety at the major right wing gathering later
Speaker 1: this month. That statement alarms some of Romney's defenders, leaving
Speaker 1: across the line between outrage and actual threat. The numbers
Speaker 1: in for the oscars, and they're not good, Holly. Many
Speaker 1: people watch the oscars, but a whole lot of people didn't.
Speaker 1: And finally, today's don't cry over spilt milk Day. You're
Speaker 1: listening to the show, all right, You guys are still
Speaker 1: on this peta story about uh not calling animals pets
Speaker 1: anymore because they think it's a didn't do that? People
Speaker 1: get on my damn man companions. Companions surely does the
Speaker 1: dog coming in the house saying I'm upset he still
Speaker 1: called pit. I mean, how do they know? How the
Speaker 1: when did Peter start translating animals? Feel it? If I
Speaker 1: bought you and your ass was in a cage, when
Speaker 1: I bout you, or rescued you, whatever, and you don't work,
Speaker 1: and I feed you, take your ass to thevent, I
Speaker 1: watch you, and I pile of trained you and clean
Speaker 1: up behind you. I gave you your name and a
Speaker 1: whole I owned you. My daddy owned me. I can't
Speaker 1: own no damn dog. I refuse to eat if you
Speaker 1: go keep calling me your pitt, and I'll tell you
Speaker 1: what well, I'm an oldness gate and you just go
Speaker 1: take your ass after Peter, says Steve. When you refer
Speaker 1: to animals not as the living beings they are, but
Speaker 1: as an inanimate object, it can reflect our treatment on
Speaker 1: these animals. Peter is stupid it ye, no, for real,
Speaker 1: for real, Peter is stupid and they need to stop
Speaker 1: this shit. These the same people who would take red
Speaker 1: paint and flower and throw it on another human being
Speaker 1: because they don't believe what they believe? What is wrong
Speaker 1: with them? Who made them judge and jury? I'm not
Speaker 1: we're not I'm I'm against Peter. I'm not calling them
Speaker 1: damn companions them miss pets. Ye, human beings who are
Speaker 1: in relationships and they're not married. A lot of times
Speaker 1: they call that other person their companion. And you know
Speaker 1: why you are a pet, because that's pet. All you
Speaker 1: do is peeat and train. That's why the is a
Speaker 1: pit what you want to be. So if you say
Speaker 1: your pet is a companion, how do you know now,
Speaker 1: according to pete, if they're your human companion or your
Speaker 1: animal companion? So what's next? They're gonna get the dogs,
Speaker 1: gonna get the vote. What's next they're gonna be able
Speaker 1: to vote? Next, they're about to start driving. That wouldn't
Speaker 1: sound like I just wish they could talk so that
Speaker 1: we could really know that they do not care if
Speaker 1: we call him he is a pet. He licks himself
Speaker 1: in front of people looking. We want to call that
Speaker 1: a companion. We gotta move on here in front of
Speaker 1: these people. Valentine Today is Friday? Okay, guys, and we'll

Speaker 1: Dating is rarely easy. We know that, and when you've
Speaker 1: been doing it a long time, it's hard to constantly

Speaker 1: if you're looking for ideas, a new survey says that

Speaker 1: campaigns swimming all over the place. It's companions watched this
Speaker 1: school of fish watching a bunch of fish swim by.
Speaker 1: It ain't studying you. How about an art museum or aum,
Speaker 1: something like that music museum. So Steve, you always have
Speaker 1: great ideas. Is yeah, I like that in art museum?

Speaker 1: and you know, oh wow, thet Yeah, all right, here
Speaker 1: we go subject for today's letter. His wife was very
Speaker 1: calm on the phone. Dear Stephen Shirley. Six months ago,
Speaker 1: I met a man and I had no idea that
Speaker 1: he was married when I met him. We waited a
Speaker 1: month to have sex, and a week after that, I
Speaker 1: was talking to a group of friends and told them
Speaker 1: I met someone, and that's when I found out he
Speaker 1: is married. When I confronted him, he didn't deny it,
Speaker 1: and he said that it would not be a problem
Speaker 1: for long. Unfortunately, I was already in love. I had
Speaker 1: never dated a married man, and I was extremely hurt.
Speaker 1: We continued our relationship because he had me believing that
Speaker 1: he was about to leave his wife. When we went
Speaker 1: apartment hunting and we found the perfect place to start
Speaker 1: our new life together. He put down the deposit and
Speaker 1: first month's rent, but he didn't move in with me.
Speaker 1: He told me that he was going to move in
Speaker 1: as soon as he could, but he had to tie
Speaker 1: up some loose ends in his marriage. Meanwhile, he still
Speaker 1: lives with his wife, and I'm miserable. So I got
Speaker 1: impatient last week and called his house. He and I
Speaker 1: were arguing hot and heavy on the phone, and he
Speaker 1: told me to hold on. He put his wife on
Speaker 1: the phone, so now she knows everything, and our love
Speaker 1: triangle is very complicated. His wife said they have a
Speaker 1: lot of history together and they own properties, so he
Speaker 1: needs time to handle his business first. I'm not sure
Speaker 1: what kind of woman he's married too, and I couldn't
Speaker 1: tell if she's angry or not. She seemed cool, but
Speaker 1: like I said, I've never been involved in a situation
Speaker 1: with a married man. I'm giving him till the end
Speaker 1: of the month to see what happens. Should I trust
Speaker 1: what he says and give him time to get his
Speaker 1: stuff together, or should I move out of the apartment
Speaker 1: and move on with my life without him. What he
Speaker 1: makes is a lot going on, a lot of false
Speaker 1: don't it. Yeah, there's a lot going on for just
Speaker 1: a six month relationship. Okay, but I have to tell
Speaker 1: you off the bat, girl, move on with your life now.
Speaker 1: When he works out, you know, his so called loose
Speaker 1: ends with his wife and his history together with her,
Speaker 1: with all their property and stuff, Let's see what happens.
Speaker 1: Let's see what he does. Then in the meantime, protect yourself,
Speaker 1: protect your heart by not seeing him, or don't take
Speaker 1: his calls for a while because he is still married. Okay,
Speaker 1: he's still married. Period. I will say this, something is
Speaker 1: going on in this marriage, meaning they could be breaking off.
Speaker 1: He could be telling the truth, because otherwise, why would
Speaker 1: he put his wife on the phone, and why would
Speaker 1: she tell you what's happening in their marriage? I mean, who, who?
Speaker 1: What wife? Does this? I mean certainly not what I
Speaker 1: expected when when you said, he said hold on and
Speaker 1: put her on the phone. So I was expecting a
Speaker 1: good old fashioned cussing out or something, but that did
Speaker 1: not happen. I mean she kind of explained situation to
Speaker 1: you with Darrel. Yeah, girl, you can have him, just
Speaker 1: wait till you know she went there with it so
Speaker 1: this property, Yeah, wait till we can get rid of
Speaker 1: this property. You could have this sorry behind basically is
Speaker 1: what she was saying. So you know, in this situation,
Speaker 1: I say, stick to your ultimatum. You gave him an
Speaker 1: ultimatum by the end of the month. Now by the
Speaker 1: end of the month, if he hasn't moved out, I say,
Speaker 1: then it is time for you to move on until
Speaker 1: you see something different. Okay, talk is one thing, but
Speaker 1: actions are completely different, and that's what you should rely on.
Speaker 1: What he does, not what he says. Steve, Well, that
Speaker 1: ain't what I see in this letter. So here we go.
Speaker 1: Six months ago I met a man and I had
Speaker 1: no idea that he was married. Now this letter, this
Speaker 1: relationship is six months old. Shirley did say that I
Speaker 1: didn't know idea he was married. So we waited a
Speaker 1: month to have sex, and a week after that, I
Speaker 1: was talking to a group of friends told him I
Speaker 1: met somebody that what I found out, he was mad.
Speaker 1: I'd have told y'all the ninety day rule. I have
Speaker 1: said it to y'all, But oh, y'all, listen, uncle Steve. See,
Speaker 1: if you'd have waited ninety days, you could have told
Speaker 1: your friends after y'all had sex. After a month, I
Speaker 1: met this man. You could have told him that before
Speaker 1: you had sex, and then they would have told you
Speaker 1: the same thing they told you before you had sex,
Speaker 1: and then you could have made a better decision. But
Speaker 1: all now, y'all, don't listen to me. That had ninety
Speaker 1: day rule old f Well, y'all old, and I'm gonna
Speaker 1: tell you how I know that too. I confronted him.
Speaker 1: He didn't deny it, said it wouldn't be a problem
Speaker 1: for loan. Unfortunately, I was already in love. Okay after
Speaker 1: one month, no and and one, y'all had sex at
Speaker 1: one week and now you've just gone. You thought this
Speaker 1: was it? He put it right on the phone. See this,
Speaker 1: how I know was a problem. I was already in
Speaker 1: love and I've never dated a married man, which means
Speaker 1: she's been around for a while. And I was extremely hurt.
Speaker 1: We continued our relationship. I'll tell you about that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: all right, we'll have part two of Steve's response coming
Speaker 1: up at twenty three minutes after be our subjects. His
Speaker 1: wife was very calm on the phone. We'll be back
Speaker 1: right after this. You're listening show, all right, Come on, Steve,
Speaker 1: let's recap today's Strawberry letter subject. His wife was very
Speaker 1: calm on the phone, jumped the gun, had sex with
Speaker 1: the man, find out he was mad. Got you talking
Speaker 1: to some friends. They something came up and found out
Speaker 1: he was married. Confronted him. He denied, but he said
Speaker 1: it wouldn't be a problem for long. But unfortunately you
Speaker 1: was already in love because you're old, and you thought
Speaker 1: this was it. I never dated a married man before me,
Speaker 1: and you've been around for a while, and I was
Speaker 1: extremely hurt. We continued our relationship because he had me
Speaker 1: believing he was about to leave his wife. No, you
Speaker 1: continued the relationship because you was in love. He had
Speaker 1: me believing he was about to leave his wife. We
Speaker 1: went apartment hunting. That's what he always here. This is
Speaker 1: what we are. That's what they say. It won't be
Speaker 1: a problem for long. That's a common line. Then I'm
Speaker 1: about to leave my wife. That's another common line. We
Speaker 1: went apartment hunting that hoel, and we found a perfect
Speaker 1: place to start new life together. What didn't you Ain't
Speaker 1: this the same dude that's married? What new life together
Speaker 1: you talking about? He put down the deposit and the
Speaker 1: first month's rent, but he didn't move in with me.
Speaker 1: Oh that ain't nothing done. That the fold, that's sugar daddy.
Speaker 1: He told me that he was gonna move in as
Speaker 1: soon as he could. Well, that don't have a date
Speaker 1: on it. But he had to tipe some loose ends
Speaker 1: in his marriage. That's true, like the divorce. That's a
Speaker 1: big ass, Lucien. Meanwhile, he still lives with his wife,
Speaker 1: and I'm miserable. So I got impatient last week and
Speaker 1: called his house. Who got a house fault? Young people
Speaker 1: don't have house fold? Young people got a problems today?
Speaker 1: He had got no house fault. You call his house.
Speaker 1: That's caused y'all old all of this stuff, says, these
Speaker 1: are just a grown people right here. So now you
Speaker 1: are arguing hot and heavy on the phone. He told
Speaker 1: me to hold on because in the background, who you
Speaker 1: talking to? Herbert? His name is Herbert? Herbert? Who is
Speaker 1: you in that argue with here? Bernard did Hills. He
Speaker 1: put his wife on the phone, so now she know everything.
Speaker 1: And I love triangle. It's very complicated. It's a love
Speaker 1: triangle because you still in it. You had all the
Speaker 1: opportunity for this not to be a triangle, but you
Speaker 1: want to partment to be set up and all this
Speaker 1: hen you can call this house. But now y'all got
Speaker 1: a love triangle. And it's six months after you found
Speaker 1: out after a month, so this is five months of
Speaker 1: still seeing this man. His wife said that they have
Speaker 1: a lot of history together, a lot of history. Once again,
Speaker 1: that's an old ass statement. And they own properties. Yeah,
Speaker 1: twenty year olds got no lot of properties. So he
Speaker 1: needs time to handle his business first. I'm not sure
Speaker 1: what kind of woman he's married too. Well, obviously he's
Speaker 1: married to one that's done with his ass. Yes, And
Speaker 1: I couldn't tell if she's angry or not. Now this
Speaker 1: is the line where you need to be killed. I
Speaker 1: could not tell if she was angry or not. You
Speaker 1: have a strong possibility or turning up missing. I'm just
Speaker 1: gonna tell it to you, real lady. When a woman
Speaker 1: get quiet and they come and you didn't took their
Speaker 1: man and they come, it's because you are about to
Speaker 1: find out a lot about how they did to move
Speaker 1: a fatal attraction. It's been to be rabbits in a pot,
Speaker 1: cooking in your house, assing on top of your car.
Speaker 1: It's gonna start like that. Then you're gonna turn up missing.
Speaker 1: I've never been involved in a situation with a married man.
Speaker 1: When you quit saying that. Stop saying that, because you
Speaker 1: involved in a situation with a married man now for
Speaker 1: six months, So quit saying you ain't ever been involved
Speaker 1: with one before. You've been involved with him for six months.
Speaker 1: I'm giving him to the end of the month to
Speaker 1: see what happened. You what? Oh you want to move
Speaker 1: it to get started? Oh? See what happened? Let me
Speaker 1: tell you, get yourself some security at your front door
Speaker 1: and your back door. That's what you need to do.
Speaker 1: Should I trust what he says and give him time
Speaker 1: to get his stuff together? Lady, you already doing that
Speaker 1: even in this letter. You've been sawing before you sent
Speaker 1: us to letter. Y'all still sleeping together, y'all still in
Speaker 1: a complicated triangle. So quit talking about should I give
Speaker 1: him time you're still seeing him? Or should I move
Speaker 1: out the apartment and move on with your lap That
Speaker 1: partment in your name he gave you. All he gave
Speaker 1: you was the first monst rent and the deposit. That
Speaker 1: apartment in your name that ain't in his name. Move
Speaker 1: out if you want to gonna get your ass sued.

Speaker 1: House and their lives as empty nesters with Oprah and
Speaker 1: her audience on Oprah's twenty twenty vision Your Life in
Speaker 1: Focus is Brooklyn Tour Stop Um Oprah is on tour.

Speaker 1: to stick with her catchphrase when they go low, we
Speaker 1: go high with um after all of Washington's political drama
Speaker 1: these days. The former First Lady went on to say,
Speaker 1: for me, what I learned from my husband, what I
Speaker 1: learned from eight years in the White House, This life,
Speaker 1: this world, our responsibility in it is so much bigger
Speaker 1: than us. What I want to go low. It's all
Speaker 1: about my own ego. It's not about solving anything. It's
Speaker 1: not about fixing anything. It's about seeking revenge on the
Speaker 1: thing that happened to you. Got it. Yeah that makes sense.
Speaker 1: That's so true. Yeah, it makes sense. So she's still
Speaker 1: going high even though all the lowness that's going on
Speaker 1: right now. You know high ny, and I'm gonna drop low, frandom,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna drop low. Yeah. It has to do with

Speaker 1: gotta respect the people. Now. Now, sometimes I don't want
Speaker 1: to go high. Oh yeah, yeah, I just don't want to.
Speaker 1: That's human and I regret that too. But at some moments, though,
Speaker 1: I feel like some people needs me right down the
Speaker 1: way they are. Yes, So I can let the ass
Speaker 1: get it back, because sometimes I don't go high for
Speaker 1: teaching moments, and I think, yeah, I think that we

Speaker 1: I ain't gonna let you figure out what happened later on.
Speaker 1: I've been to teach your ass a lesson. Right now,

Speaker 1: you do a cookie class for short people like to
Speaker 1: cook really small teach people how to greel from from
Speaker 1: up high small plates. All right, let me do this
Speaker 1: right quick, y'all, let me do it. I want I
Speaker 1: want to I want to share something with you all
Speaker 1: that I discovered doing my morning meditation recently, and I've
Speaker 1: found I've discovered this way that I've suddenly gotten more
Speaker 1: and more of peace of mind. You know, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: be honest with you. Earlier in the year, I was
Speaker 1: diagnosed borderline high blood. I didn't have high blood, but
Speaker 1: I was diagnosed borderline high blood, so they wanted to
Speaker 1: put me on this medication so it didn't become high blood.
Speaker 1: And when I went back to the doctor ninety days later,
Speaker 1: he said, Wow, your blood pressure is perfect. The medication
Speaker 1: is worth but I saw that you didn't complete your refeels,
Speaker 1: and I said, I stopped taking it five days after
Speaker 1: you gave it to me. He said, mister Harvey, you
Speaker 1: can't stop taking this medication for your high blood because
Speaker 1: you work a lot, and you're under a lot of
Speaker 1: intense pressure with your jobs, and you could you could
Speaker 1: just could be bad news. But your blood pressure is perfect.
Speaker 1: He said, what did you do? I said, I was
Speaker 1: studying one morning. He said studying? Howso, I said, I
Speaker 1: do a meditation every morning, and in the meditation, I
Speaker 1: found out through some things that how blood pressure starts
Speaker 1: in the mind, and so I just cleared my mind out.
Speaker 1: And so what I had learned, though you are in
Speaker 1: my morning meditation, is that it's hard to find peace
Speaker 1: of mind when you're constantly engaging in except I said planning.
Speaker 1: Now follow me what I'm saying. I found myself that
Speaker 1: I would plan so much for the upcoming week, the
Speaker 1: upcoming month. What I was gonna say what I met
Speaker 1: this person, what I was gonna say in this meeting.
Speaker 1: How I was gonna pitch this, and I would worry
Speaker 1: about it so much. I was so engaged in excessive planning.
Speaker 1: I was attempting to control what was going to happen
Speaker 1: to me in the future. That is the beginning of
Speaker 1: raising your blood pressure. That is the beginning of anxiety.
Speaker 1: That is the beginning of becoming anxious. You know, the
Speaker 1: Bible says be anxious for nothing, but I wanted so
Speaker 1: many things to happen. I was working so hard to
Speaker 1: make things happen that I was contempted to control what
Speaker 1: was going to happen to me in the future. And
Speaker 1: what I was learning through my morning metation, which is
Speaker 1: a spiritual thing that I go through. That's a common practice,
Speaker 1: but it's also a form of unbelief. And that shocked
Speaker 1: me when I found that out. You mean to tell
Speaker 1: me that my constantly planning and all of this. And
Speaker 1: that's not to say that you're not to set goals
Speaker 1: and have aspirations, dreams, But when you start worrying about
Speaker 1: the future, you start concerning yourself with what's going to happen.
Speaker 1: When you start trying to fix and mold everything in
Speaker 1: your future, you're setting yourself up. You're setting yourself up.
Speaker 1: And it's a common practice of unbelief because when your
Speaker 1: mind spends with all these complexities of plans, peace sometimes
Speaker 1: seems within your grass because you think you're actually getting
Speaker 1: a grip on what's going to happen, but it ends
Speaker 1: up eluding you, because just when you think you've prepared
Speaker 1: yourself all possible possibilities, some unexpected pops up and throws
Speaker 1: everything into confusion. And here you go again, because now
Speaker 1: you got to start rescrambling again to readjust what you
Speaker 1: thought you was gonna say, what you thought was gonna happen,
Speaker 1: what you hope would happened, and what you hope and
Speaker 1: playing that happened and it didn't happen, and throws you
Speaker 1: the other confusion, and you find yourself constantly fixing stuff.
Speaker 1: You got to stay in the present. You got to
Speaker 1: remember what the Lord's prayer says, Give us this day
Speaker 1: our daily bread. You have enough to worry about today.
Speaker 1: We are not designed or equipped to worry about the
Speaker 1: future and deal with the future. It is enough for
Speaker 1: us to deal with today. Give us this day our
Speaker 1: daily bread. If you focus on today, get guidance and
Speaker 1: understanding for today. That will help you reduce a lot
Speaker 1: of stress in your life. Those are my closing remarks today,
Speaker 1: y'all have and hey, look here have a great mote.
