1
00:00:02,640 --> 00:00:03,360
Speaker 1: Hey there, folks.

2
00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:09,440
Speaker 2: Sit is Sunday, September fourteenth, Darkness, Light, Steve Jobs and

3
00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:13,400
Speaker 2: Buddha Robach went deep into her bag for this week's

4
00:00:13,600 --> 00:00:17,680
Speaker 2: quotes of the Week, and with that, welcome to this inspiration.

5
00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:21,960
Speaker 1: Edition of Amy and TJ. ROBESU. You've leaned on Buddha

6
00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:23,320
Speaker 1: a lot lately with the quotes of the week.

7
00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:25,680
Speaker 3: Yes, we've needed some zen in our lives, and I

8
00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:26,880
Speaker 3: think especially this week.

9
00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:28,640
Speaker 4: This was a heavy, heavy week.

10
00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:32,800
Speaker 3: And I actually felt a deeper responsibility funny enough finding

11
00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:36,440
Speaker 3: some of these quotes, but interestingly, the quote that we

12
00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:39,360
Speaker 3: started with the week, we had no idea what events

13
00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:43,120
Speaker 3: would be unfolding, and I actually, at one point on

14
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:46,800
Speaker 3: Wednesday when all of the breaking news of Charlie Kirk

15
00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:52,479
Speaker 3: was hitting us and consuming all of the airwaves, and

16
00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:54,840
Speaker 3: we really just felt this heaviness and darkness going into

17
00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:58,240
Speaker 3: September eleventh, I kept thinking about that quote on Monday

18
00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:02,240
Speaker 3: and how that actually I went back and I read

19
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:04,520
Speaker 3: it and I thought about it, and it was from

20
00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:06,720
Speaker 3: Martin Luther King Junior. And this was one you said

21
00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:10,040
Speaker 3: you weren't even familiar with, but MLK Junior said something

22
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:13,559
Speaker 3: and we put it on our Monday morning run without

23
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:15,440
Speaker 3: any idea of how useful it would be for all

24
00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:18,120
Speaker 3: of us for the rest of the week. MLK Junior

25
00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:23,680
Speaker 3: said this darkness cannot drive out darkness. Only light can

26
00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:28,280
Speaker 3: do that. Hate cannot drive out hate, only love can

27
00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:30,840
Speaker 3: do that, you know, And what we saw from that

28
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:35,479
Speaker 3: gunman was hate trying to drive out. And I'm not

29
00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:39,320
Speaker 3: putting hate onto Kirk, but they obviously didn't like what

30
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:44,839
Speaker 3: Charlie Kirk was preaching, and so it was an example

31
00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:47,200
Speaker 3: of what not to do.

32
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:51,559
Speaker 1: And you're the quote. I didn't think about it until

33
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,960
Speaker 1: you just related to me again repeated it. But that

34
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 1: idea that what we saw seemed to be a direct

35
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 1: response or retaliation to what somebody didn't hear in a

36
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 1: message from somebody else. Obviously violence cannot be the answer

37
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 1: to that, but darkness driving out darkness hate hate. I

38
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 1: keep going back to hearing politicians lately saying fight fire

39
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:18,000
Speaker 1: with fire, their language they're even using. I know they're

40
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 1: talking about it in a legislative way. I suppose fire

41
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:24,280
Speaker 1: with fire, but the idea that we're ramping up and

42
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:29,760
Speaker 1: getting ready for even more battle and now a bullet

43
00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:33,160
Speaker 1: just flew and killed a guy and in the midst

44
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:36,160
Speaker 1: of this battle that even some of the politicians are

45
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:37,760
Speaker 1: saying needs to get nastier.

46
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 3: And frankly, I'm not making a statement, a political statement

47
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,919
Speaker 3: at all about the death penalty and how anyone may

48
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,080
Speaker 3: or may not feel about capital punishment. But for the

49
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:49,400
Speaker 3: immediate in the hours, I feel like maybe even in

50
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,280
Speaker 3: it was a short period of time later, we are

51
00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:55,960
Speaker 3: already started hearing the Utah governor and other officials, I believe,

52
00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,120
Speaker 3: even Trump talking about the death penalty.

53
00:02:58,200 --> 00:02:58,960
Speaker 4: The death penalty.

54
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:01,440
Speaker 3: I mean, it's just we just keep going like we're

55
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:04,440
Speaker 3: gonna get you back. There's gonna be retaliation, you will,

56
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:07,959
Speaker 3: you will pay physically and suffer for this. It's just

57
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 3: it's just we keep ramping it up. And so God,

58
00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 3: I just want to lean on this quote one more time.

59
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:15,919
Speaker 3: We can't control what other people do, but we can

60
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:17,960
Speaker 3: control what we do, and we can be the light

61
00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:21,360
Speaker 3: and we can use love to battle hate. I know

62
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:24,400
Speaker 3: that sounds cheesy, but I just got I needed this quote.

63
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:28,200
Speaker 3: Darkness cannot drive out darkness, only light can do that.

64
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:32,240
Speaker 3: Hate cannot drive out hate, only love can do that.

65
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 3: All right, next quote, this.

66
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 4: One comes to us. I actually we chose this one because.

67
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:40,680
Speaker 3: Apple had their big aw dropping event today, I mean

68
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 3: this week where they were unveiling the new Air iPhone Air.

69
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 1: From what you can tell, was it awe no jaw

70
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,080
Speaker 1: dropping or is it? I mean, how are people responding?

71
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 3: I just think it was kind of cool, and it was.

72
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,480
Speaker 3: It was a new phone, the phone we hadn't seen before.

73
00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 3: But I feel like sometimes maybe, yeah, you want to

74
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:03,040
Speaker 3: make sure you deliver on the hype, otherwise it might

75
00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:05,760
Speaker 3: backfire a little bit. But I did love this quote

76
00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:07,800
Speaker 3: from Steve Jobs, who also is known to have so

77
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 3: many good quotes, but I had not heard this one.

78
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:14,160
Speaker 3: Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important

79
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,680
Speaker 3: tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big

80
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:21,440
Speaker 3: choices in life, because almost everything, all external expectations, all pride,

81
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:25,560
Speaker 3: all fear of embarrassment or failure, These things just fall

82
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:28,320
Speaker 3: away in the face of death, leaving only what is

83
00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:29,640
Speaker 3: truly important.

84
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:31,680
Speaker 1: We use this one for a little while. After you

85
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:35,400
Speaker 1: put it in the morning run, we went about our day.

86
00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:37,800
Speaker 1: I think we were starting to even look at vacation differently.

87
00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:41,040
Speaker 1: We were starting to look at furniture we were ap

88
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:43,479
Speaker 1: purchasing different We.

89
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:44,880
Speaker 3: Still haven't picked the vacation, And I'm going to lean

90
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:46,719
Speaker 3: on this quote in a few minutes after we're finished,

91
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:48,640
Speaker 3: because I really do want to remember that I'll be

92
00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:49,080
Speaker 3: dead soon.

93
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,240
Speaker 1: But again, when you stop and think about the things

94
00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:54,240
Speaker 1: you're contemplating, or maybe I'll go to that lunch, or

95
00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:56,160
Speaker 1: maybe I'll do that this weekend. Ooh, do I really

96
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:58,400
Speaker 1: feel like that all those things? Put it in the content.

97
00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:01,640
Speaker 1: Ask yourself first, or I'll be dead soon.

98
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:05,240
Speaker 3: You know I am not overstating this. I have said

99
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:08,680
Speaker 3: it in different forms in another podcasts, and I believe

100
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,119
Speaker 3: I've certainly told you this. But this was a huge

101
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 3: part of my decision to be with you one hundred percent.

102
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:18,320
Speaker 3: I leaned on my cancer journey. I leaned on my

103
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,720
Speaker 3: friends who are fighting for their lives right now. And

104
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 3: I thought, if I knew I had a year left,

105
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:25,880
Speaker 3: if I knew my time was limited, which it is,

106
00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,480
Speaker 3: by the way, for all of us, what would I do?

107
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:30,320
Speaker 4: And the answer was so obvious to me.

108
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,560
Speaker 3: So I do love what Steve job said about making

109
00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:36,400
Speaker 3: big decisions or even small decisions. Remember this, remembering that

110
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:39,280
Speaker 3: I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've

111
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:41,720
Speaker 3: ever encountered to help me make the big choices in

112
00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:47,200
Speaker 3: life because almost everything, all external expectations, all pride, all

113
00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:50,200
Speaker 3: fear of embarrassment or failure. Think about how many times

114
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:53,919
Speaker 3: we all use those things to make our decision. Expectations, pride,

115
00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:57,040
Speaker 3: fear of embarrassment or failure. Most people, I would say

116
00:05:57,160 --> 00:05:59,760
Speaker 3: a lot of us rely on those to make our

117
00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 3: des decisions for us, but they all fall away in

118
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:05,479
Speaker 3: the face of death. Steve Job says, leaving only what

119
00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:08,680
Speaker 3: is truly important. So it's a good one to keep

120
00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:10,800
Speaker 3: in your back pocket when you have decisions to make.

121
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:15,239
Speaker 1: Man, I'm sorry, I feel heavy over here. Talk about

122
00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:18,640
Speaker 1: your decision to be with me and why you decided

123
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:20,640
Speaker 1: to be with me. You had to do with you

124
00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:22,360
Speaker 1: thinking you were going to die.

125
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:26,120
Speaker 3: No, because we get caught up in what other people

126
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:28,360
Speaker 3: will think, or what other people will feel, or how

127
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:30,840
Speaker 3: it will make us look, or how we'll have to

128
00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 3: do explain this to someone else. We're thinking about everyone else,

129
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:37,080
Speaker 3: but actually what we really need and want and what

130
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:37,839
Speaker 3: really matters.

131
00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:40,960
Speaker 4: So I love that. Thank you, Steve Jobs.

132
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:45,080
Speaker 3: This next one is pretty cool too. We're all in

133
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:48,360
Speaker 3: search of being happier, and this one comes to us

134
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:51,440
Speaker 3: from a motivational speaker. His name is Dennis Weiteley, and

135
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:56,799
Speaker 3: he said this happiness cannot be traveled to, owned, earned,

136
00:06:57,320 --> 00:07:02,000
Speaker 3: warn or consumed. Happiness is the spiritual experience of living

137
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:05,279
Speaker 3: every minute with love, grace, and gratitude.

138
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:08,200
Speaker 1: We probably have a quote at least one a week

139
00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:10,960
Speaker 1: that has some reference to living in the moment. And

140
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:13,920
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter if that the author of it wrote

141
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:17,480
Speaker 1: it in twenty twenty four or in the year twenty four.

142
00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:21,520
Speaker 1: It's all the same theme. And this one is cool

143
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:25,200
Speaker 1: how we went about stacking this. I this was this

144
00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:26,600
Speaker 1: might have been my favorite one you use.

145
00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:30,720
Speaker 3: This week, because we're all trying to find happiness in

146
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:33,080
Speaker 3: things that you know, in things that we can purchase

147
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:36,920
Speaker 3: or things that we can consume, and that's not where

148
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:40,160
Speaker 3: happiness comes from, but we all do it. Ooh if

149
00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:42,240
Speaker 3: I and look, look, there'll be like a moment of

150
00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:44,360
Speaker 3: joy when I buy that new sweater that I've been

151
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:45,200
Speaker 3: looking for.

152
00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 1: Everybody, I'm for really, I challenge everybody who's listening to

153
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:52,880
Speaker 1: us right now, ask yourself this question, what would make

154
00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 1: me happy right now? Do you have an answer? Yes?

155
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:03,320
Speaker 3: But see this is going to sound cheesy to be

156
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:06,160
Speaker 3: with you right now, exactly what I'm doing.

157
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:08,400
Speaker 1: So you are happy that I am happy right now?

158
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:11,760
Speaker 1: I am, But no, the challenge they're being I think

159
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 1: the first thing people would go if I had this

160
00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 1: taken care of, if the roof was finally fixed, if

161
00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:20,480
Speaker 1: we finally finished the pool, if I could get those

162
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:23,440
Speaker 1: tires rotated before the end of the weekend.

163
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:25,440
Speaker 4: If I won the lottery, really.

164
00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:30,200
Speaker 1: Money, raise relationship, find the right woman, find the right man,

165
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:32,680
Speaker 1: whatever it may be. I think we have a thing

166
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:35,360
Speaker 1: that would make us happy. I think people have a

167
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:37,560
Speaker 1: very quick answer. What would make you happy right now?

168
00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:41,280
Speaker 3: You wouldn't say to be grateful, Nah, you'd never think that,

169
00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:46,560
Speaker 3: or to give grace, to let go of that anger

170
00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:48,640
Speaker 3: or that wrong I think was done to me, to

171
00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:51,840
Speaker 3: just let it go, to forgive, to just be at peace.

172
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:54,040
Speaker 4: Actually, that is what it's all about.

173
00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 3: And truly that comes from no one else, not the

174
00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:58,240
Speaker 3: relationship you're in, even though I just said being here.

175
00:08:58,080 --> 00:08:59,839
Speaker 4: With you, but truly it should.

176
00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:03,800
Speaker 3: You know. The goal is to be happy with who

177
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:07,120
Speaker 3: you are and how you treat people. And that is

178
00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:09,480
Speaker 3: what really does bring you peace because you know you

179
00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:14,400
Speaker 3: have quality relationships because of how you are and how

180
00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:14,960
Speaker 3: you treat people.

181
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:17,280
Speaker 1: I want to say you always pitch yourself. You can

182
00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:19,880
Speaker 1: only make you happy, but you should surround yourself with

183
00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:24,120
Speaker 1: people who enhance that happiness remove anybody who takes away

184
00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:24,440
Speaker 1: from it.

185
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:26,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly, So one more time for you because this

186
00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:29,559
Speaker 3: one is just it is a really cool quote. Happiness

187
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:35,760
Speaker 3: cannot be traveled to, owned, earned, worn, or consumed. Happiness

188
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:39,240
Speaker 3: is the spiritual existence of living every minute with love, grace,

189
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:40,480
Speaker 3: and gratitude.

190
00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:43,720
Speaker 1: Warn it's that worn. Yeah, man, can't you name something

191
00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:45,640
Speaker 1: in there that you love you could go put on

192
00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:46,000
Speaker 1: right now?

193
00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:48,319
Speaker 3: In fact, I think I have put something on. It

194
00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:51,959
Speaker 3: is that this makes me so happy, but it's fleeting,

195
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:55,240
Speaker 3: and that's the point. It's fleeting. It is it is real,

196
00:09:55,320 --> 00:10:00,240
Speaker 3: but it's momentary. And I just think this quote is

197
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:01,000
Speaker 3: is super cool.

198
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 1: Yeah.

199
00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:03,640
Speaker 4: I love the quotes this week.

200
00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:09,920
Speaker 3: All right, let's finish with Buddha until we get to

201
00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:11,719
Speaker 3: the break, because this is a good one to end

202
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:15,000
Speaker 3: on for part one of this Each morning we are

203
00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:18,840
Speaker 3: born again. What we do today is what matters most,

204
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:22,120
Speaker 3: and that just speaks to regret and living in the

205
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,880
Speaker 3: past or maybe even future casting. But I do love

206
00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:27,440
Speaker 3: when I've had a tough day, and we've all had

207
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:30,960
Speaker 3: tough days where you actually feel despair. Isn't it amazing

208
00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 3: when you wake up in the morning if you can

209
00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:36,040
Speaker 3: actually look at it as a as a new page

210
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:36,600
Speaker 3: in your book.

211
00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:37,560
Speaker 4: It is a new chapter.

212
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:39,520
Speaker 3: It is a new page, and you can write whatever

213
00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:43,080
Speaker 3: you want and you can make you can change things

214
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:45,040
Speaker 3: starting right now when you wake up in the morning.

215
00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:47,319
Speaker 1: I love I think we all do new beginnings. I

216
00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:50,800
Speaker 1: so I love my babies being born. I love weddings.

217
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:56,240
Speaker 1: This idea of a renewal of some kind, so I

218
00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:58,559
Speaker 1: this one in particular. I think it sounds weird, but

219
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:01,880
Speaker 1: I love mondays. I love Monday mornings because it's a

220
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:04,240
Speaker 1: new week. It's a new beginning. We can put whatever

221
00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:07,199
Speaker 1: happened last week behind us. I love that idea, and

222
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:08,640
Speaker 1: that's why I love mornings. And I know you can

223
00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:12,040
Speaker 1: relate to this as well. Throughout our long careers. You

224
00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:14,040
Speaker 1: have a bad moment, you have a bad day, you

225
00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:16,280
Speaker 1: have a bad segment, you have a bad show. You

226
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:19,280
Speaker 1: can't wait to get back in there tomorrow and do

227
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:21,760
Speaker 1: it again because you get to start over. It's new.

228
00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,840
Speaker 1: You do get another chance. And yes, every single morning

229
00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:27,600
Speaker 1: there's a new chance. The Boodha's nailing it all.

230
00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:29,679
Speaker 3: Yeah, It's about getting in that mindset because I think

231
00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:31,800
Speaker 3: sometimes we feel despair like all is loss. I'll never

232
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:33,520
Speaker 3: be able to redo that, or I'll never be able

233
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:36,199
Speaker 3: to fix that, or I'll never be able to outlive that.

234
00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:38,400
Speaker 3: The truth is every morning you do have a chance

235
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:40,400
Speaker 3: to start over, and if you keep that in mind,

236
00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:43,760
Speaker 3: it creates a lot of positivity. Instead of feeling negative

237
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:46,720
Speaker 3: and regretful, you can feel hopeful and positive. All right,

238
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,160
Speaker 3: when we come back, we are going to bring you

239
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:52,800
Speaker 3: another quote that has something to do with death, but

240
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:55,240
Speaker 3: I promise you it will not be morbid. It will

241
00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:58,840
Speaker 3: be inspirational. And then we have our bonus quote of

242
00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:03,360
Speaker 3: the week and it's all about kindness, something we need

243
00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:16,880
Speaker 3: more of especially this week. Welcome back to this Sunday

244
00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:19,840
Speaker 3: morning run where we go over our quotes of the

245
00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:21,960
Speaker 3: week and hopefully start your week off with a little

246
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:25,800
Speaker 3: bit of inspiration. And we have our Friday quote that

247
00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:27,559
Speaker 3: we just had up yesterday.

248
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:28,880
Speaker 4: But this one is so good.

249
00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:30,920
Speaker 3: Yes, this is about death, but I promise you.

250
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:33,120
Speaker 1: Yeah and uplifting death quote.

251
00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:35,520
Speaker 4: You know what, I do think that.

252
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:40,800
Speaker 3: Fear is so paralyzing, and so what do we fear most?

253
00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:41,120
Speaker 4: Death?

254
00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:41,400
Speaker 1: Right?

255
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:44,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what we fear, But how about this? For you,

256
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:49,160
Speaker 3: death is not the greatest loss in life. The greatest

257
00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:54,400
Speaker 3: loss is what dies inside us while we live. What dies?

258
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:56,360
Speaker 3: Do you think, or what has died inside of you?

259
00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 3: What dies in most people? Do you think before you

260
00:12:59,200 --> 00:12:59,840
Speaker 3: actually end up?

261
00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:13,560
Speaker 1: Wonder? Innocent, joy, optimism? I guess a curiosity, even sometimes

262
00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:14,000
Speaker 1: a hope.

263
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:15,520
Speaker 4: I hope is what I was gonna say.

264
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:17,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's probably be the first one.

265
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:20,320
Speaker 3: I think that's the most devastating thing to lose. I

266
00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:23,400
Speaker 3: think when you lose hope, it's that's that is probably

267
00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:26,120
Speaker 3: rock bottom. And I have felt that in moments, and

268
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:27,440
Speaker 3: it scared the hell out of me.

269
00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:28,600
Speaker 4: I am.

270
00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,199
Speaker 3: I am mostly a positive person, and I think sometimes

271
00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:32,920
Speaker 3: you're just wired that way. I think I was born

272
00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:36,160
Speaker 3: that way. But man, when you lose hope, when you

273
00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:39,120
Speaker 3: lose your hope, I don't I don't think there's a

274
00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:41,360
Speaker 3: worse feeling. And so it's just and again, all of

275
00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:43,600
Speaker 3: this is truly changeable.

276
00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:45,000
Speaker 4: These are habits you can form.

277
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:48,800
Speaker 3: These are these are mental practices you can put into

278
00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:52,200
Speaker 3: your daily life where you choose hope and you choose

279
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 3: optimism and you choose curiosity. I think if we can

280
00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:59,959
Speaker 3: keep those things in our life. That is where the

281
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:05,720
Speaker 3: magic happens. That is, these are kids, childlike qualities, childlike qualities.

282
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:07,559
Speaker 4: We love watching kids.

283
00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:10,680
Speaker 3: Sometimes when we're big people watchers, and one of my

284
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:13,400
Speaker 3: favorite and our favorite things to do is to watch

285
00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:16,960
Speaker 3: kids skipping, laughing. I even love watching kids and their

286
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:21,240
Speaker 3: strollers just so comfortable that they are just splayed out.

287
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:22,880
Speaker 4: Spread eagal hands.

288
00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:25,640
Speaker 3: They're not worried about what position their body's in or

289
00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:29,280
Speaker 3: what they look like. It's just, hey, I'm relaxing, dude,

290
00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:30,400
Speaker 3: and this feels good.

291
00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:32,640
Speaker 4: I love that I do.

292
00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:35,560
Speaker 3: I watch children, not in a creepy way, but in

293
00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:37,720
Speaker 3: a way to remember how to be and who we

294
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:40,160
Speaker 3: once were and how we can still. Actually, every now

295
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:42,640
Speaker 3: and then you see older people who have that spark,

296
00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:45,480
Speaker 3: that childlike spark, and isn't it infectious?

297
00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:50,520
Speaker 1: We see them when we're running often. But yeah, to lose,

298
00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:54,320
Speaker 1: to be alive, and to waste a single day, I

299
00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:55,960
Speaker 1: guess we have to come around to this as you

300
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:58,000
Speaker 1: get older. And when you're younger, you think you're going

301
00:14:58,080 --> 00:14:59,880
Speaker 1: to live forever, and maybe.

302
00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:01,680
Speaker 3: You're going to take on the world and become president

303
00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:03,760
Speaker 3: and all those things, and then suddenly none of those

304
00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:05,800
Speaker 3: wild dreams you had came true.

305
00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:08,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, but to that, what was that study we were

306
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:10,480
Speaker 1: just seeing recently about the saddest point of your life?

307
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:13,160
Speaker 1: Is that forty seven point two or something? Correct, it's

308
00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:15,640
Speaker 1: when you read the age I just finished up with. So, yes,

309
00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 1: I just wrapped up the saddest year of my life, y'all.

310
00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:21,440
Speaker 1: And they say it is because it's the time where

311
00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:26,160
Speaker 1: you realize that you're too old, Like you're all your

312
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:28,120
Speaker 1: hopes and dreams or whatever you were going to do

313
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:31,200
Speaker 1: in your career and you're in middle management at forty

314
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:33,800
Speaker 1: seven and you're sad, and you also realize it's too

315
00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:36,160
Speaker 1: late to start over with a new relationship or a

316
00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:38,600
Speaker 1: new career or you think that. So you think that

317
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:41,800
Speaker 1: and it's the most depressing point. But yeah, to to

318
00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:44,840
Speaker 1: have no to get to a point of no hope

319
00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 1: and not be living every day like you have something that.

320
00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:51,720
Speaker 3: Oh there's you know, and I just I think I

321
00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:53,720
Speaker 3: have I have come over the hump. But I was

322
00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:55,560
Speaker 3: in it. I was in that. I mean that that

323
00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:58,920
Speaker 3: was real for me actually, and I now look at

324
00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 3: it where you a new lease on life because when

325
00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:04,400
Speaker 3: you do get older and you are closer to the end,

326
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:08,880
Speaker 3: just from a year's standpoint, you realize how important time is,

327
00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:10,920
Speaker 3: and to seize the day, and to seize the moment,

328
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:13,480
Speaker 3: and to not worry about so many of the things

329
00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:16,400
Speaker 3: you worried about in your twenties and thirties and maybe

330
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:19,000
Speaker 3: even in your forties. And so there is this newfound

331
00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:21,240
Speaker 3: freedom that I hope we can all lean into as

332
00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:24,840
Speaker 3: we cross over that little tough stretch we have in well,

333
00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:26,480
Speaker 3: a lot of folks call it a mid life crisis.

334
00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:29,760
Speaker 3: But yes, death is not the greatest loss in life.

335
00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:34,040
Speaker 3: The greatest loss is what dies inside us while we live.

336
00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:37,920
Speaker 3: That's from Norman Cousins, political journalists who he died back

337
00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:40,120
Speaker 3: in nineteen ninety. But I love that his words still

338
00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:43,920
Speaker 3: live on. And let's now go with our bonus quote.

339
00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:49,240
Speaker 3: This one comes from Ralph Waldo Emerson, famous name. Never

340
00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:52,240
Speaker 3: heard this quote from him, But man, is this needed

341
00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:56,080
Speaker 3: in the world today. You cannot do kindness too soon,

342
00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 3: for you never know how soon it will be too late.

343
00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:06,600
Speaker 1: What do you think, Well, I had to piece it together,

344
00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:11,320
Speaker 1: but I get it. I'm a big kindness Never pass

345
00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:13,879
Speaker 1: up an opportunity to say something nice about somebody behind

346
00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:16,639
Speaker 1: their back, right, And I always say that be kind, kind,

347
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,879
Speaker 1: kind And what was the judge just passed away from

348
00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:22,120
Speaker 1: Rhode Island not too long ago. That was the TV judge.

349
00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:26,159
Speaker 1: That was his thing. He was just always kind. I

350
00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:29,360
Speaker 1: think you can't say it enough. And you how many

351
00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:31,719
Speaker 1: times you think, well, I could have I should have

352
00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:35,280
Speaker 1: I could have said this, or I could have maybe

353
00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:38,120
Speaker 1: put that dollar in that cup for that person who

354
00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:41,439
Speaker 1: was asking that day, and then the next thing you

355
00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:44,439
Speaker 1: know that person has been injured or hurt or died

356
00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:47,159
Speaker 1: or how many times, really, We've talked about this role

357
00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:49,800
Speaker 1: so many times I'm meant to text to somebody or

358
00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:53,000
Speaker 1: somebody was on my mind talking about Malcolm Jamal Warner

359
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:54,840
Speaker 1: not too long ago, and then next thing you know,

360
00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:58,960
Speaker 1: they're dead. So the opportunity, don't ever pass up any chance.

361
00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:02,200
Speaker 1: I've been yelling in screen this. I didn't know Ralph

362
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:05,240
Speaker 1: there and I were on the same age, but I

363
00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:08,320
Speaker 1: always scream that you have to not pass up an

364
00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:11,800
Speaker 1: opportunity when somebody is on your mind to reach out,

365
00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:14,399
Speaker 1: and certainly somebody passed on the street to say a

366
00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:16,600
Speaker 1: kind word. It will never do harm.

367
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:19,199
Speaker 3: And you know, there are some things in life that

368
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:22,639
Speaker 3: you will never regret and you will never regret being kind.

369
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:25,120
Speaker 3: I think if you can put it into that perspective,

370
00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:28,600
Speaker 3: you'll never go wrong. You'll never regret not being kind.

371
00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:30,720
Speaker 3: I even think about what happened this week with Charlie

372
00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:34,040
Speaker 3: Kirk and when his wife, when he kissed her goodbye

373
00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:36,639
Speaker 3: for the last time. What were those last words that

374
00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:41,160
Speaker 3: they said to each other, What were their parting conversation?

375
00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:43,560
Speaker 3: What was it She had no idea, he had no

376
00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:45,960
Speaker 3: idea that would be the last time they would see

377
00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:47,679
Speaker 3: each other? Those are these are the moments you know

378
00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:51,040
Speaker 3: when I and we've been covering news intimately for the

379
00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:54,200
Speaker 3: past three decades, and that has been my major takeaway.

380
00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:56,359
Speaker 3: I don't get on a plane without telling my daughters

381
00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:57,000
Speaker 3: I love them.

382
00:18:57,320 --> 00:18:58,280
Speaker 4: You just don't know.

383
00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:00,600
Speaker 3: You shouldn't walk out of the house without telling people

384
00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:02,920
Speaker 3: you love them. I mean, it's just we don't know

385
00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:05,639
Speaker 3: what the next moment brings, and so to be kind

386
00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:10,320
Speaker 3: and to express kindness is it's it's and I don't

387
00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:12,159
Speaker 3: think it's ever too late, by the way, you know,

388
00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:14,800
Speaker 3: I mean, obviously short of someone no longer being with

389
00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:16,919
Speaker 3: us to be able to express it, you can always

390
00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:18,520
Speaker 3: go back and be kind. If you make a mistake,

391
00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:20,360
Speaker 3: if you realized you were rude. You can go back

392
00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:22,760
Speaker 3: and say I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that, and

393
00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:27,080
Speaker 3: that's that's kindness too, So thank you, Ralph Waldo Emerson.

394
00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:30,840
Speaker 3: You cannot do kindness too soon, for you never know

395
00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:31,640
Speaker 3: how soon.

396
00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:33,160
Speaker 4: It will be too late.

397
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:35,800
Speaker 3: And with that everyone, thank you so much for listening

398
00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:39,440
Speaker 3: to us on this Sunday. I'm Amy Robot alongside TJ.
