1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:04,360
Speaker 1: Hi, you guys. It is Kelly, and I'm here because

2
00:00:04,360 --> 00:00:07,400
Speaker 1: I just needed to talk to you guys today. I

3
00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:10,959
Speaker 1: actually recorded a podcast with Chip yesterday. Today is obviously

4
00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:14,520
Speaker 1: our Edge podcast, and so it's typically Chip and I

5
00:00:15,080 --> 00:00:19,440
Speaker 1: and we recorded a podcast and tried to come in

6
00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:21,800
Speaker 1: and talk about some of the things happening in our

7
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:24,800
Speaker 1: world right now. And I realized as I listened to

8
00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:28,200
Speaker 1: it that I'm still just way too emotional to talk

9
00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:33,240
Speaker 1: about it. The struggle I have with having a podcast

10
00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:37,480
Speaker 1: is that I do feel this responsibility. I have an audience,

11
00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:41,680
Speaker 1: I have a voice, and I feel this responsibility to

12
00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:45,200
Speaker 1: use it for good, especially in this world right now,

13
00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:48,000
Speaker 1: and just with everything going on and all the negativity

14
00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:52,199
Speaker 1: and all the fighting, and sometimes I don't know what

15
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:56,280
Speaker 1: to do either. And I am a big feeler, as

16
00:00:56,320 --> 00:01:01,840
Speaker 1: most of you know, and that makes it difficult to navigate.

17
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:04,319
Speaker 1: So sometimes I'm coming from a place of just feeling

18
00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:08,880
Speaker 1: completely depleted because I'm feeling the weight of everything happening,

19
00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:12,920
Speaker 1: of all the fighting, of all of the negative forces

20
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:15,400
Speaker 1: just coming at all of us at all times, of

21
00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:20,119
Speaker 1: all the social media posts, everything, just the divisiveness in general.

22
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:22,160
Speaker 1: It's a lot for a person like me because I

23
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:25,480
Speaker 1: absorb all of it. So I want to come and

24
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 1: bring love and bring entertainment when we can, and also

25
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:35,360
Speaker 1: bring education and information and ways to help and information

26
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,400
Speaker 1: that I'm given because I do have this platform. And

27
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:41,400
Speaker 1: that was our goal yesterday. But I really just didn't

28
00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:45,199
Speaker 1: feel like I communicated in a way that I felt

29
00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:48,600
Speaker 1: good about. I was just a little bit too volatile myself,

30
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 1: and that doesn't feel like the right answer for me

31
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 1: as far as what I'm here to bring to you

32
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:57,400
Speaker 1: guys or to this world in general, and so I

33
00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:00,880
Speaker 1: wanted to just take a little pause. I'm still navigating

34
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:03,560
Speaker 1: how to do all of this. It's not like our

35
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 1: world has looked the way that it's looked since I've

36
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:08,639
Speaker 1: had a podcast, and our content here has changed a

37
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:10,920
Speaker 1: little bit because of that, and also just because of

38
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 1: our own evolution and what my interests are, what Chip's

39
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:19,040
Speaker 1: interests are, and our own personal growth. I think the

40
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:23,360
Speaker 1: conversations have gotten a little deeper and we're seeking a

41
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 1: little more, and so that's kind of where the topics

42
00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:30,120
Speaker 1: have gone. But I want to make sure that I

43
00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:33,359
Speaker 1: am doing myself a service and doing you guys a

44
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:38,000
Speaker 1: service anytime we do bring a podcast to you. So

45
00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:41,079
Speaker 1: we had kind of gone, you know, into the land

46
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:44,760
Speaker 1: of gun laws and trying to help how we could there.

47
00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 1: There's so much stuff happening right now that it's completely

48
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:50,840
Speaker 1: overwhelming to me, and I don't really know where to start.

49
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,800
Speaker 1: So I decided, like, let's just pick a place to start,

50
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:56,800
Speaker 1: and if none of us are here and we're all dead,

51
00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:59,520
Speaker 1: how can we help. So let's start with gun laws.

52
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 1: That seems like one of the issues that maybe we're

53
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:07,400
Speaker 1: actually not as far divided from each other as some

54
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:10,120
Speaker 1: of the other issues, Like maybe we're a little closer

55
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:12,080
Speaker 1: than we think on that one, because I know that

56
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:15,800
Speaker 1: we really do, ultimately all want to be alive and

57
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:19,440
Speaker 1: live this life and enjoy it. So Chip and I

58
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:22,239
Speaker 1: came and we're not saying let's take away guns or

59
00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:25,320
Speaker 1: anything like that. And so we also brought in some

60
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:27,280
Speaker 1: people that are going to be on the podcast this

61
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:31,080
Speaker 1: month to just tell the stories. We have Crystal Miller

62
00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 1: coming on the podcast next week, and she was a

63
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 1: survivor of Columbine and her story was just so impactful

64
00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:42,600
Speaker 1: to me because we could hear it from the voice

65
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:44,960
Speaker 1: of someone who's been there. You know, she was in

66
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 1: the library, the place where most of the deaths that

67
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 1: Columbine happened, and she watched a lot of her friends

68
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:55,240
Speaker 1: be killed or are heavily injured and had to escape,

69
00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 1: and she was just one of the lucky ones that

70
00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:00,680
Speaker 1: got away. And so now she's changed her life into

71
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:04,840
Speaker 1: her mission has now become helping other people who have

72
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,280
Speaker 1: been survivors. And it's so sad to me that we

73
00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:09,880
Speaker 1: even have to have resources like that. But I'm so

74
00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:13,880
Speaker 1: grateful for people like Crystal, who are, you know, writing

75
00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:16,880
Speaker 1: books to help kids understand what's going on at their schools,

76
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:21,680
Speaker 1: or starting a foundation at on Site, which is a

77
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:26,960
Speaker 1: big therapeutic center here for survivors so they have a

78
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:28,920
Speaker 1: place to go so they know they're not alone. And

79
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,159
Speaker 1: she'll tell you all the details about that next week

80
00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:34,160
Speaker 1: in the podcast. She's an amazing guest. I'm so grateful

81
00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 1: that she was here because one of the main things

82
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:39,360
Speaker 1: I feel like we miss is empathy right now and

83
00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:43,880
Speaker 1: just putting ourselves in another person choose to understand what

84
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:46,480
Speaker 1: it would feel like, and a lot of us can

85
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:49,840
Speaker 1: get wrapped up in our own lives and we forget

86
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:51,920
Speaker 1: to think about, you know, that could be me. And

87
00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:54,360
Speaker 1: in this situation, I really do feel like it could

88
00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:57,800
Speaker 1: be any of us at any time. And I know

89
00:04:57,839 --> 00:04:59,840
Speaker 1: if I had kids, I wouldn't want to be sent

90
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:02,880
Speaker 1: them off to school to wonder if that was going

91
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:05,359
Speaker 1: to happen on any given day. It's really really scary.

92
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 1: We also have a woman from every town, which I

93
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:14,880
Speaker 1: know can be a little bit of a divided organization

94
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:19,200
Speaker 1: for some people, but she was amazing and it wasn't

95
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:24,400
Speaker 1: geared towards anything other than education. She's also a gun owner.

96
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 1: She's lost people to gun violence, many people in her

97
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:29,799
Speaker 1: life actually, and so she was speaking from a place

98
00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,360
Speaker 1: of just educating us about the simple things that could

99
00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:35,600
Speaker 1: change for the safety. You know. She used the analogy

100
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:38,800
Speaker 1: of you don't just get behind the wheel of a

101
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:40,920
Speaker 1: car and drive. We have to go to driver's ed,

102
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:42,200
Speaker 1: you have to take a test, you have to get

103
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:44,640
Speaker 1: a license, and that's all we're really trying to say here.

104
00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:48,560
Speaker 1: And so she gave the educational aspects like that, and

105
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:52,080
Speaker 1: then she also gave tools and resources that of simple

106
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:54,920
Speaker 1: things that each of us can do to actually make

107
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,360
Speaker 1: a difference, because I know a lot of us are

108
00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 1: feeling really hopeless and helpless right now because we don't

109
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:03,320
Speaker 1: know where to start so both of those will be

110
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:05,960
Speaker 1: coming to you guys in the next couple of weeks.

111
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:08,920
Speaker 1: I'm not sure how we're going to navigate the other

112
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:13,760
Speaker 1: topics happening, but I did sort of think about that

113
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:18,039
Speaker 1: because I'm not sure that it's my podcast that will

114
00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:20,800
Speaker 1: be the place where everyone should go to find out information.

115
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:23,360
Speaker 1: If there's something that I feel really lad to talk about,

116
00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:25,560
Speaker 1: I'm going to talk about it. But I don't want

117
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 1: this to become a political podcast. And I know a

118
00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:31,800
Speaker 1: lot of us are also really really overwhelmed with everything

119
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,040
Speaker 1: coming at us at all times, and sometimes you just

120
00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:37,839
Speaker 1: need a break, and so I will do my best

121
00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 1: to navigate that as well. I'm feeling all of the

122
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:43,560
Speaker 1: same thing you guys are feeling. And one of the

123
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:46,039
Speaker 1: things that I really like to make known over and

124
00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,320
Speaker 1: over and over is I'm just human, and so is Chip.

125
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:51,520
Speaker 1: And you know, some days are better than others. Right now,

126
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:55,239
Speaker 1: and for the most part, I've spent my week trying

127
00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 1: to get my footing and find my footing again and

128
00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:02,680
Speaker 1: get a and take the next right step. So what

129
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 1: I do think that I can bring is some tools

130
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:09,000
Speaker 1: for that, because those are things that I actually really

131
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:12,720
Speaker 1: do in my life at all times, and I know,

132
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:15,560
Speaker 1: as a deep feeler sometimes I have to take steps

133
00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:18,520
Speaker 1: even greater than other people to be able to navigate life.

134
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:21,840
Speaker 1: And so if I can offer you, guys, any hope

135
00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:25,240
Speaker 1: or any help at how to process all the things

136
00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:27,480
Speaker 1: that are happening, and also just to get back in

137
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:31,560
Speaker 1: touch with yourself. And if you believe in a higher power,

138
00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:34,880
Speaker 1: if you're a Christian, you believe in God, Buddhist, you

139
00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:37,560
Speaker 1: believe in Buddha. Whatever it is your higher power, your

140
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:41,680
Speaker 1: spiritual capacity, whatever source for you is greater than us

141
00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:45,000
Speaker 1: that you think you could tap into right now. And

142
00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,720
Speaker 1: if I can help you do that, that's what I

143
00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:50,960
Speaker 1: want to do, is bring the healing and the hope

144
00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:55,080
Speaker 1: and the help and the love that I feel in

145
00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:58,920
Speaker 1: my soul that I do believe is why I'm here.

146
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:04,840
Speaker 1: The main thing that I thought about when thinking about

147
00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:07,440
Speaker 1: what I actually wanted to say to you guys, was

148
00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:10,560
Speaker 1: this Buddhist story that I was told a long time ago,

149
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:14,760
Speaker 1: and it's called Maybe, and it's about this farmer and

150
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:16,600
Speaker 1: he has all of these things that happen in his

151
00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:21,400
Speaker 1: life that people either view as good or bad, and

152
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:25,960
Speaker 1: his only response is that he says maybe to everything

153
00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:28,000
Speaker 1: that they say, and I'll read the story in just

154
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:31,400
Speaker 1: a second. But the principle is that it's that we

155
00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:34,160
Speaker 1: don't really ever know what is good or what is

156
00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:37,160
Speaker 1: bad because we can't see the big picture here. We

157
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:39,120
Speaker 1: just see what's happening right in front of us. And

158
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:42,920
Speaker 1: so sometimes it's time to get quiet, and it's time

159
00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:45,120
Speaker 1: to think, and it's time to meditate, and it's time

160
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:49,240
Speaker 1: to calm our bodies and find peace within ourselves and

161
00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:51,960
Speaker 1: be open to whatever it is the universe is bringing.

162
00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:54,880
Speaker 1: So all of this stuff right now feels so incredibly

163
00:08:54,920 --> 00:09:01,120
Speaker 1: painful and so scary and so difficult to navigate, and

164
00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:04,480
Speaker 1: we don't know why it's happening yet. We don't know

165
00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:07,600
Speaker 1: what it's bringing to us, and we don't know what

166
00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:11,040
Speaker 1: doors it could actually be opening for our world, for unity,

167
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:15,240
Speaker 1: for love, for getting rid of some of this divisiveness maybe,

168
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:20,079
Speaker 1: or bringing us together finally, So all with that, I'll

169
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:23,920
Speaker 1: read the story, a Buddhist story, maybe, said the farmer.

170
00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:26,640
Speaker 1: Once upon a time in ancient China, there lived an

171
00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:29,840
Speaker 1: old farmer who worked with crops for many years. He

172
00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:32,400
Speaker 1: was considered a wealthy man because he had a horse

173
00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:36,000
Speaker 1: to help them with plowing. One early spring, morning, his

174
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:39,000
Speaker 1: horse ran off. When the villagers heard this, they hastened

175
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:43,000
Speaker 1: to his home to express their sympathy. What a terrible thing,

176
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:47,160
Speaker 1: they lamented, But all the farmers said was maybe. The

177
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:50,160
Speaker 1: next morning, his horse returned, leading with it an entire

178
00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:54,040
Speaker 1: herd of wild mustangs. The townspeople rushed over, exclaiming, it

179
00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:57,559
Speaker 1: is good fortune. Now you are the richest man in

180
00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 1: the province. But all the farmers said was maybe. The

181
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:05,360
Speaker 1: following morning, the farmer's only son began breaking in one

182
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:08,320
Speaker 1: of the wild horses. It promptly threw him, and his

183
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:12,200
Speaker 1: leg was broken. The townspeople rushed over in alarm. What

184
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:15,880
Speaker 1: a terrible thing, they wept. Without the help of your

185
00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:18,920
Speaker 1: only son, how can you plant your fields? But all

186
00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:22,720
Speaker 1: the farmers said was maybe. The next morning, the emperor's

187
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:25,880
Speaker 1: soldiers rode into town, kicking up an enormous cloud of dust.

188
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:28,520
Speaker 1: They had come to conscript all of the young men

189
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:30,960
Speaker 1: into war, but the farmer's son could not go because

190
00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:34,360
Speaker 1: of his broken leg. The townspeople once again gathered around

191
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:37,120
Speaker 1: to marvel at the farmer's good luck, but all he

192
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 1: said was maybe. The story continued to continues in the

193
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:45,840
Speaker 1: same fashion for many more verses. Illustrating the important principle

194
00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:50,400
Speaker 1: of balance non attachment in its relationship with faith. Incidents

195
00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:53,040
Speaker 1: that appear either good or bad can never be judged

196
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:56,480
Speaker 1: in isolation. Life is a paradox in which all things

197
00:10:56,480 --> 00:11:02,040
Speaker 1: are relative and interrelated and interdependent on each other. The

198
00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:06,760
Speaker 1: unwise masses fear much. Let me try that one again.

199
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:11,280
Speaker 1: The unwise masses fear misfortune and long for good fortune.

200
00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:15,200
Speaker 1: But if this distinction is carefully studied, misfortune often turns

201
00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:17,640
Speaker 1: out to be good fortune, and good fortune turns out

202
00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:20,960
Speaker 1: to be misfortune. The wise master learns to meet the

203
00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:25,439
Speaker 1: changing circumstances of life with an equitable spirit, being neither

204
00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:29,880
Speaker 1: elated by success nor depressed by failure. That one recognizes

205
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:34,000
Speaker 1: the truth of nonduality. There are no obstacles on the path.

206
00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:38,199
Speaker 1: That obstacles are the path. I don't know if you

207
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:40,360
Speaker 1: guys resonate with that, but it really hits me because

208
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:42,439
Speaker 1: I know so many times in my life I've thought

209
00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:45,880
Speaker 1: my life is over or the most devastating thing has happened,

210
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:49,400
Speaker 1: and ultimately the universe is just taking things out of

211
00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:52,360
Speaker 1: my life that I didn't need or bringing in things

212
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:56,839
Speaker 1: that I need more more in alignment for my greater good,

213
00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:00,280
Speaker 1: whatever it may be. But sometimes I just have to

214
00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:03,080
Speaker 1: remind myself that I just don't know what. I just

215
00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:06,800
Speaker 1: don't know. So for today, I am going to take

216
00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:09,120
Speaker 1: the next right step and I'm just going to tell

217
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:11,280
Speaker 1: you guys how I feel, and that was how I feel.

218
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:13,640
Speaker 1: And I don't feel like I want to bring any

219
00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:18,319
Speaker 1: more volatility or any more negative energy into this world

220
00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:20,040
Speaker 1: right now, and I just want to stay peaceful and

221
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:22,960
Speaker 1: stay calm and send you guys love as we navigate

222
00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 1: a really tricky time. I'm not even going to say tough,

223
00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:30,080
Speaker 1: because although it feels really tough, I know that we

224
00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:32,960
Speaker 1: can do it. As Glennon Doyle always says, I know

225
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:35,720
Speaker 1: we can do hard things. So I hope you guys

226
00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:38,680
Speaker 1: are taking care of yourselves and taking a deep breath,

227
00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:42,880
Speaker 1: finding the peace within yourselves, within your families, within your friends,

228
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:45,960
Speaker 1: just looking at all the love and things we have

229
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:48,440
Speaker 1: to be grateful for, because there are a lot of

230
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:52,520
Speaker 1: those things out there. So stay tuned for more from us.

231
00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:56,559
Speaker 1: And like I said, we do have some interesting, hopefully

232
00:12:56,800 --> 00:13:01,160
Speaker 1: positive tools and education for you guys coming about some

233
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:04,000
Speaker 1: gun laws. But again, we're not gonna be bringing any

234
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:09,400
Speaker 1: more volatility or fighting or super strong political opinions. Although

235
00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:12,160
Speaker 1: we do have our own, you know, I just don't

236
00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:15,120
Speaker 1: know that that's helping anything right now. So we're going

237
00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:16,880
Speaker 1: to do our best one day at a time, and

238
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:19,319
Speaker 1: I think as we navigate all of this, the best

239
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 1: thing we can do for each other is just offer

240
00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:23,559
Speaker 1: grace as we do a little bit of trial and

241
00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:26,040
Speaker 1: error and see what works for us. The last thing

242
00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:28,880
Speaker 1: I'll leave you guys with is in the podcast description,

243
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:31,000
Speaker 1: I'm going to put a link to a meditation I

244
00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:35,960
Speaker 1: do by Eckhart Tool and it's just about basically the

245
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:39,040
Speaker 1: same thing as a story I just read, but it

246
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:43,160
Speaker 1: really talks about just accepting life as it is right now,

247
00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:46,480
Speaker 1: and life on life's terms is sometimes really tricky for me.

248
00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:50,880
Speaker 1: But ultimately the most piece I ever find is when

249
00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:55,000
Speaker 1: I just accept things as they are for today and

250
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:58,240
Speaker 1: open myself up to what the universe might be bringing in.

251
00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:02,559
Speaker 1: I love you guys, and I hope everyone is going

252
00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:06,040
Speaker 1: to have a wonderful weekend. I could try to do

253
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:09,080
Speaker 1: the ending on my own as you navigate through this

254
00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:14,840
Speaker 1: weekend and go into life. Yeah, this is really terrible,

255
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:18,160
Speaker 1: but I do hope you guys always remember to act

256
00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 1: casual Bye,
