1 00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:04,320 Speaker 1: Hi, you guys. It is Kelly, and I'm here because 2 00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:07,320 Speaker 1: I just needed to talk to you guys today. I 3 00:00:07,360 --> 00:00:10,920 Speaker 1: actually recorded a podcast with Chip yesterday. Today is obviously 4 00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:14,400 Speaker 1: our Edge podcast, and so it's typically Chip and I 5 00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:19,239 Speaker 1: and we recorded a podcast and try to to come 6 00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:21,560 Speaker 1: in and talk about some of the things happening in 7 00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:24,600 Speaker 1: our world right now. And I realized as I listened 8 00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:27,880 Speaker 1: to it that I'm still just way too emotional to 9 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:32,360 Speaker 1: talk about it. Um. The struggle I have with having 10 00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:36,519 Speaker 1: a podcast is that I do feel this responsibility. I 11 00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:39,960 Speaker 1: have an audience, I have, you know, a voice, and 12 00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:43,040 Speaker 1: I feel this responsibility to use it for good, especially 13 00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:46,680 Speaker 1: in this world right now, and just with everything going on, 14 00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:51,519 Speaker 1: in all the negativity and all the fighting, and sometimes 15 00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:54,920 Speaker 1: I don't know what to do either. And I am 16 00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:59,080 Speaker 1: a big feeler, as most of you know, and that 17 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:03,320 Speaker 1: makes it difficult to navigate. So sometimes I'm coming from 18 00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:06,640 Speaker 1: a place of just feeling completely depleted because I'm feeling 19 00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:10,880 Speaker 1: the weight of everything happening, of all the fighting, of 20 00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:14,000 Speaker 1: all of the negative forces just coming at all of 21 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:18,240 Speaker 1: us at all times, of all the social media post everything, 22 00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 1: just the divisiveness in general. It's a lot for a 23 00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:23,959 Speaker 1: person like me because I absorb all of it. So 24 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:28,080 Speaker 1: I want to come and bring love and bring um 25 00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:32,640 Speaker 1: entertainment when we can, and also bring education and information 26 00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 1: and ways to help and information that I'm given because 27 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 1: I do have this platform. And that was our goal yesterday. 28 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 1: But I really just didn't feel like I communicated in 29 00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:46,440 Speaker 1: a way that I felt good about. I was just 30 00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 1: a little bit too volatile myself, and that doesn't feel 31 00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 1: like the right answer for me as far as what 32 00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:55,720 Speaker 1: I'm here to bring to you guys or to this 33 00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:58,120 Speaker 1: world in general, and so I wanted to just take 34 00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 1: a little pause. I'm still navigating how to do all 35 00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:04,440 Speaker 1: of this. It's not like our world has looked the 36 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 1: way that it's looked since I've had a podcast, and 37 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:09,680 Speaker 1: our content here has changed a little bit because of that, 38 00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:12,480 Speaker 1: and also just because of our own evolution and what 39 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:16,920 Speaker 1: my interest are, what chips interests are, and um our 40 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:20,200 Speaker 1: own personal growth. I think the conversations have gotten a 41 00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:24,920 Speaker 1: little deeper and UM we're seeking a little more, and 42 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:28,200 Speaker 1: so that's kind of where the topics have gone. But 43 00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:31,640 Speaker 1: I want to make sure that I am doing myself 44 00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:34,560 Speaker 1: a service and doing you guys a service anytime we 45 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 1: do bring podcast to you. So we had kind of gone, 46 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 1: you know, into the land of gun laws and trying 47 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 1: to help how we could there. There's so much stuff 48 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,680 Speaker 1: happening right now that it's completely overwhelming to me, and 49 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:51,799 Speaker 1: I don't really know where to start. So I decided, like, 50 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:55,040 Speaker 1: let's just pick a place to start, and if none 51 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 1: of us are here and we're all dead, how can 52 00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 1: we help. So let's start with gun laws. That seems 53 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:03,400 Speaker 1: like one of the issues that maybe we're actually not 54 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:07,600 Speaker 1: as far divided from each other as some of the 55 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:10,359 Speaker 1: other issues, Like maybe we're a little closer than we 56 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 1: think on that one, because I know that we really 57 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 1: do ultimately all want to be alive and live this 58 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:19,720 Speaker 1: life and enjoy it. So Chip and I came and 59 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:23,080 Speaker 1: we're not saying let's take away guns or anything like that. 60 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 1: And so we also brought in some people that are 61 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:28,240 Speaker 1: going to be on the podcast this month to just 62 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:31,520 Speaker 1: tell the stories. We have Crystal Miller coming on the 63 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 1: podcast next week, and she was a survivor of Columbine 64 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 1: and it's her story was just so impactful to me 65 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 1: because we could hear it from the voice of someone 66 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 1: who's been there. You know, she was in the library, 67 00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 1: the place where most of the desk a Columbine happened, 68 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 1: and she watched a lot of her friends be killed 69 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 1: or or heavily injured and had to escape, and she 70 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 1: was just one of the lucky ones that got away. 71 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:01,960 Speaker 1: And so now she's changed her life into UM. Her 72 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:05,840 Speaker 1: mission has now become helping other people who have been survivors. 73 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 1: And it's so sad to me that we even have 74 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 1: to have resources like that. But I'm so grateful for 75 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 1: people like Crystal, who are you know, writing books to 76 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,159 Speaker 1: help kids understand what's going on at their schools, or 77 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 1: UM starting a foundation at on Site, which is a 78 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:26,719 Speaker 1: big therapeutic center here UM for survivors so they have 79 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:28,720 Speaker 1: a place to go so they know they're not alone. 80 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:30,920 Speaker 1: And she'll tell you all the details about that next 81 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:33,680 Speaker 1: week in the podcast. She's an amazing guest. I'm so 82 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 1: grateful that she was here because one of the main 83 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:39,160 Speaker 1: things I feel like we miss is empathy right now 84 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 1: and just putting ourselves in another person shoes to understand 85 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:46,160 Speaker 1: what it would feel like. And a lot of us 86 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:49,359 Speaker 1: can get wrapped up in our own lives and we 87 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 1: forget to think about, you know, that could be me, 88 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 1: and in this situation, I really do feel like it 89 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:57,599 Speaker 1: could be any of us at any time. And I 90 00:04:57,640 --> 00:04:59,719 Speaker 1: know if I had kids, I wouldn't want to be 91 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,680 Speaker 1: sent them off to school to wonder if that was 92 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 1: going to happen on any given day. It's really really scary. 93 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:09,719 Speaker 1: We also have um, a woman from every town, which 94 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:12,560 Speaker 1: I know can be a little bit of a divided 95 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:18,760 Speaker 1: organization for some people, but she was amazing and it 96 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:23,640 Speaker 1: wasn't geared towards anything other than education. Um. She's also 97 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:26,520 Speaker 1: a gun owner. She's lost people to gun violence, many 98 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 1: people in her life actually, and so she was speaking 99 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 1: from a place of just educating us about the simple 100 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:34,840 Speaker 1: things that could change for the safety. You know. She's 101 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:38,599 Speaker 1: the analogy of you don't just get behind the wheel 102 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 1: of a car and drive. We have to go to 103 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:41,919 Speaker 1: driver's ed, you have to take a test, you have 104 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:43,960 Speaker 1: to get a license, and that's all we're really trying 105 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:47,839 Speaker 1: to say here. And so she gave the educational aspects 106 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:51,080 Speaker 1: like that, and then she also gave tools and resources 107 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,600 Speaker 1: that of simple things that each of us can do 108 00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:56,880 Speaker 1: to actually make a difference, because I know a lot 109 00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:59,280 Speaker 1: of us are feeling really hopeless and helpless right now 110 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:02,520 Speaker 1: because we us don't know where to start. So both 111 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:04,600 Speaker 1: of those will be coming to you guys in the 112 00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 1: next couple of weeks. I'm not sure how we're going 113 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 1: to navigate the other topics happening, um, but I did 114 00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 1: sort of think about that because I'm not sure that 115 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:19,159 Speaker 1: it's my podcast that will be the place where everyone 116 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,640 Speaker 1: should go to find out information. If there's something that 117 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:23,839 Speaker 1: I feel really lad to talk about, I'm going to 118 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 1: talk about it. But I don't want this to become 119 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 1: a political podcast. And I know a lot of us 120 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:33,039 Speaker 1: are also really really overwhelmed with everything coming at us 121 00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:35,680 Speaker 1: at all times, and sometimes you just need to break 122 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:38,800 Speaker 1: and so I will do my best to navigate that 123 00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:42,000 Speaker 1: as well. Um, I'm feeling all of the same thing 124 00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:43,880 Speaker 1: you guys are feeling. And one of the things that 125 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:46,240 Speaker 1: I've really like to make known over and over and 126 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:48,719 Speaker 1: over as I'm just human and so as Chip and 127 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 1: you know, some days are better than others. Right now, 128 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:55,159 Speaker 1: and for the most part, I've spent my week trying 129 00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 1: to get my footing and find my find my footing 130 00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:01,280 Speaker 1: again and get out of it and take the next 131 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:03,760 Speaker 1: right step. So what I do think that I can 132 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:07,720 Speaker 1: bring is some tools for that because those are things 133 00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 1: that I actually really do in my life at all times. 134 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 1: And um, I know as a deep feeler sometimes I 135 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 1: have to take steps even greater than other people to 136 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:20,000 Speaker 1: be able to navigate life. And so if I can 137 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 1: offer you, guys, any hope or any help at how 138 00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:26,600 Speaker 1: to process all the things that are happening and also 139 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 1: just to get back in touch with yourself. And if 140 00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 1: you believe in a higher power, your Christian, you believe 141 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:36,240 Speaker 1: in God, Buddhists, you believe in Buddha, whatever it is, 142 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 1: your higher power, your spiritual capacity, whatever source for you 143 00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:44,200 Speaker 1: is greater than us that you think you could tap 144 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 1: into you right now. And if I can help you 145 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:48,440 Speaker 1: do that, um, that's what I want to do, is 146 00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 1: bring the healing and the hope and the help and 147 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 1: the love that I feel in my soul that I 148 00:07:56,760 --> 00:08:03,000 Speaker 1: do believe is why I'm here. The main thing that 149 00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:05,800 Speaker 1: I thought about when thinking about what I actually wanted 150 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 1: to say to you guys, was this Buddhist story that 151 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 1: I was told a long time ago, and it's called Maybe, 152 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,560 Speaker 1: and it's about this farmer and he has all these 153 00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:19,360 Speaker 1: things that happened in his life that people either view 154 00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 1: as good or bad. And his only response is that 155 00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:27,200 Speaker 1: he says, maybe to everything that they say. And I'll 156 00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 1: read the story in just a second. But the principle 157 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:32,960 Speaker 1: is that it's that we don't really ever know what 158 00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:35,920 Speaker 1: is good or what is bad because we can't see 159 00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 1: the big picture here. We just see what's happening right 160 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 1: in front of us. And so sometimes it's time to 161 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:43,880 Speaker 1: get quiet, and it's time to think, and it's time 162 00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:46,240 Speaker 1: to meditate, and it's time to you know, calm our 163 00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:50,040 Speaker 1: bodies and find peace within ourselves and be open to 164 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 1: whatever it is the universe is bringing. So all of 165 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 1: this stuff right now feels so incredibly painful and so 166 00:08:56,880 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 1: scary and so difficult to navigate, and we don't know 167 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:05,319 Speaker 1: why it's happening yet. We don't know what it's bringing 168 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 1: to us, and we don't know what doors it could 169 00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:11,600 Speaker 1: actually be opening for our world, for unity, for love, 170 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 1: for getting rid of some of this divisiveness maybe, or 171 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 1: bringing us together finally. Um, So, all with that, I'll 172 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:23,880 Speaker 1: read the story a Buddhist story, maybe, said the farmer. 173 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:26,640 Speaker 1: Once upon the time in ancient China, there lived an 174 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:29,800 Speaker 1: old farmer who worked with crops for many years, he 175 00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:32,320 Speaker 1: was considered a wealthy man because he had a horse 176 00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 1: to help with plowing. One early spring morning, his horse 177 00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 1: ran off. When the villagers heard this, they hastened to 178 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 1: his home to express their sympathy. What a terrible thing, 179 00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 1: they lamented, But all the farmers said was maybe. The 180 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:50,200 Speaker 1: next morning, his horse returned, leading with it an entire 181 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:54,000 Speaker 1: herd of wild mustang's. The townspeople rushed over, exclaiming that 182 00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 1: as good fortune. Now you are the richest man in 183 00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 1: the province. But all the farmers said was maybe. The 184 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:05,280 Speaker 1: following morning, the farmer's only son began breaking in one 185 00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:08,280 Speaker 1: of the wild horses. It promptly threw him, and his 186 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 1: leg was broken. The townspeople rushed over in alarm. What 187 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:15,839 Speaker 1: a terrible thing, they wept. Without the help of your 188 00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 1: only son, how can you plant your fields? But all 189 00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:22,680 Speaker 1: the farmers said was maybe. The next morning, the emperor's 190 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:25,800 Speaker 1: soldiers rode into town, kicking up an enormous cloud of dust. 191 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:28,480 Speaker 1: It had come to conscript all of the young men 192 00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 1: into war, but the farmer's son could not go because 193 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:34,320 Speaker 1: of his broken leg. The townspeople once again gathered around 194 00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:37,120 Speaker 1: to marvel at the farmer's good luck, But all he 195 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 1: said was maybe. The story continued to continues in the 196 00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:45,720 Speaker 1: same fashion for many more verses, illustrating the important principle 197 00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:50,319 Speaker 1: of balance, non attachment, and its relationship with faith. Incidents 198 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:53,000 Speaker 1: that appear either good or bad can never be judged 199 00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:56,439 Speaker 1: in isolation. Life is a paradox in which all things 200 00:10:56,440 --> 00:11:00,840 Speaker 1: are relative and inter related and interdependent on each other. 201 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:06,240 Speaker 1: The unwide, unwise masses fear miss Let me try that 202 00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:10,440 Speaker 1: one again. The unwise masses fear misfortune and long for 203 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:14,439 Speaker 1: good fortune. But if this distinction is carefully studied, misfortune 204 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:17,160 Speaker 1: often turns out to be good fortune, and good fortune 205 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:20,520 Speaker 1: turns out to be misfortune. The wise master learns to 206 00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 1: meet the changing circumstances of life with an equitable spirit, 207 00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:28,960 Speaker 1: being neither elated by success nor depressed by failure. Thus 208 00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:32,680 Speaker 1: one recognizes the truth of non duality. There are no 209 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:37,679 Speaker 1: obstacles on the path. That obstacles are the path. I 210 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:39,360 Speaker 1: don't know if you guys resonate with that, but it 211 00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 1: really hits me because I know so many times in 212 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,040 Speaker 1: my life I've thought my life is over, or the 213 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 1: most devastating thing has happened, and ultimately the universe is 214 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:50,840 Speaker 1: just taking things out of my life that I didn't need, 215 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 1: or bringing in things that I need more more in 216 00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:58,439 Speaker 1: alignment for my greater good, whatever it may be. But 217 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:02,079 Speaker 1: sometimes I just af to remind myself that I just 218 00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:05,360 Speaker 1: don't know what. I just don't know. So for today, 219 00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:08,200 Speaker 1: I am going to take the next right step and 220 00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:10,440 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna tell you guys how I feel. And 221 00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:12,800 Speaker 1: that was how I feel. And I don't feel like 222 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:15,240 Speaker 1: I want to bring any more volatility or any more 223 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:18,800 Speaker 1: negative energy um into this world right now, and I 224 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:21,080 Speaker 1: just want to stay peaceful and stay calm and send 225 00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:25,000 Speaker 1: you guys love as we navigate a really tricky time. 226 00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:28,559 Speaker 1: I'm not even gonna stay tough because although it feels 227 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:31,360 Speaker 1: really tough, I'd know that we can do it um, 228 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:33,240 Speaker 1: as Glenn and Doyle always says, I know we can 229 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:36,120 Speaker 1: do hard things. So I hope you guys are taking 230 00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:39,240 Speaker 1: care of yourselves and taking a deep breath, finding the 231 00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:43,040 Speaker 1: peace within yourselves, within your families, within your friends, just 232 00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:45,880 Speaker 1: looking at all the love and um things we have 233 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:48,400 Speaker 1: to be grateful for, because there are a lot of 234 00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:52,400 Speaker 1: those things out there. So stay tuned for more from us. 235 00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:56,680 Speaker 1: And like I said, we do have some interesting hopefully 236 00:12:56,720 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 1: positive tools and education for you guys coming about some 237 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:03,960 Speaker 1: gun laws. But again, we're not gonna be bringing any 238 00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 1: more volatility or fighting or super strong political opinions. Although 239 00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:12,079 Speaker 1: we do have our own, you know, I just don't 240 00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:15,200 Speaker 1: know that that's helping anything right now. So we're gonna 241 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:16,920 Speaker 1: do our best one day at a time, and I 242 00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:19,439 Speaker 1: think as we navigate all of this, the best thing 243 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:21,520 Speaker 1: we can do for each other is just offer grace 244 00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:23,800 Speaker 1: as we do a little bit of trial and error 245 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:26,160 Speaker 1: and see what works for us. The last thing I'll 246 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:29,040 Speaker 1: leave you guys with is in the podcast description, I'm 247 00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:31,360 Speaker 1: gonna put a link to a meditation I do by 248 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 1: Eckhart tot A and Um, it's just about basically the 249 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:38,920 Speaker 1: same thing as a story I just read, but it 250 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:43,000 Speaker 1: really talks about just accepting life as it is right now, 251 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:46,520 Speaker 1: and life on life's terms is sometimes really tricky for me. 252 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:50,840 Speaker 1: But ultimately the most piece I ever find is when 253 00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:55,120 Speaker 1: I just accept things as they are for today and 254 00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:58,199 Speaker 1: open myself up to what the universe might be bringing in. 255 00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:02,520 Speaker 1: I love you guys, and I hope everyone is going 256 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 1: to have a wonderful weekend. Um. I could try to 257 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 1: do the ending on my own as you navigate through 258 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 1: this weekend and go into life. Yeah, this is really terrible, 259 00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 1: but I do hope you guys always remember to act casual. Bye.
