1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:04,440
Speaker 1: I see Daily Game as a production of iHeartRadio. What's

2
00:00:04,519 --> 00:00:08,160
Speaker 1: up besides tea? You're listening to The Daily Game, the

3
00:00:08,280 --> 00:00:12,280
Speaker 1: compilation of motivational quotes I've collected over the years that

4
00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:18,720
Speaker 1: I've found inspiring and helped me through the game of life. Today,

5
00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:21,280
Speaker 1: I'm gonna drop some knowledge from one of my long

6
00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:26,400
Speaker 1: time co stars, Marishka Hargott, and trust me, I love

7
00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:29,280
Speaker 1: Marishka dearly. Me and Marishka have been working on the

8
00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:32,760
Speaker 1: same show for twenty four years, and sometimes I talk

9
00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:35,800
Speaker 1: to and I say, think about it. This is longer

10
00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:38,840
Speaker 1: than you are in elementary school, high school, and college

11
00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:42,040
Speaker 1: all put together. And imagine being in the same class

12
00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:46,040
Speaker 1: with one person all those years. Me and Marishka worked

13
00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:49,239
Speaker 1: five days a week for twenty four years. So trust me,

14
00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:55,160
Speaker 1: we've become very very close friends. Marishka said, sometimes things

15
00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 1: in life happen that allow us to understand our priorities

16
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:06,200
Speaker 1: very clearly. Ultimately, you can see those as gifts. What

17
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 1: she's saying is sometimes even negative things happen, but they

18
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:13,640
Speaker 1: help us to adjust our perspective. One of my friends passed,

19
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:17,600
Speaker 1: and the minister says that death is a gift to

20
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 1: the living because a lot of y'all sitting out there

21
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,959
Speaker 1: don't even realize you're alive. You're not even taking advantage

22
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:28,280
Speaker 1: of life. And sometimes when someone passes, it wakes us up, say, hey,

23
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:32,200
Speaker 1: I'm alive. You know, I still have chances to do

24
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:36,039
Speaker 1: some great things with my family and friends, and we

25
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:39,840
Speaker 1: just came out of COVID. Being quarantine made me sit

26
00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:42,600
Speaker 1: in the house and realize what was really valuable. You

27
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:45,920
Speaker 1: can't drive your cars, you can't wear your clothes. What

28
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:50,160
Speaker 1: really is valuable. It really is your family, It's really

29
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:52,600
Speaker 1: where you live. A lot of people looked around their

30
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:54,080
Speaker 1: house and it's like I could do a little home

31
00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:56,720
Speaker 1: improvement here. You know, this is actually where I live.

32
00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:01,400
Speaker 1: You know. So even though being quarantine was a negative,

33
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:07,080
Speaker 1: it made me personally really appreciate life and understand how

34
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:10,359
Speaker 1: fragile life is. I lost quite a few people to

35
00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 1: COVID and realize that we have to live every day

36
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:18,200
Speaker 1: to the fullest. So, as Mariska says, a lot of

37
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:22,440
Speaker 1: times things will happen that make us really check our priorities,

38
00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:25,520
Speaker 1: what is really important in my life? And then you

39
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:27,200
Speaker 1: turn around and you say, well, even though that was

40
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:30,799
Speaker 1: a negative incident, that was a gift. That was a

41
00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 1: moment where I got a clear understanding about life. So yes,

42
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:39,680
Speaker 1: sometimes a negative thing will help you understand your priorities

43
00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:43,640
Speaker 1: in life and ultimately, as Mariska says, you can see

44
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:51,440
Speaker 1: those as gifts. This has been another Ice Cole fact

45
00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:55,200
Speaker 1: from me Ice Tea. Listening again tomorrow when I dropped

46
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 1: some wisdom on your ass till then, stay safe, stay smart,

47
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:02,799
Speaker 1: and say no, and that circumstances can change your priorities

48
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:07,280
Speaker 1: for the better. I Sees Daily Game is a production
