WEBVTT - Be Your Own Sunshine

0:00:11.720 --> 0:00:14.480
<v Speaker 1>Good morning, peeps, and welcome to wok F Daily with

0:00:14.520 --> 0:00:18.520
<v Speaker 1>me your girl, Daniel Moody recording from the home bunker. Folks,

0:00:18.720 --> 0:00:21.639
<v Speaker 1>let me start out on this Friday. It's gonna be

0:00:22.079 --> 0:00:26.120
<v Speaker 1>a combo effect of fucking and feel it, because my God,

0:00:26.400 --> 0:00:29.600
<v Speaker 1>do things just get on my nerves. And I appreciate

0:00:29.680 --> 0:00:32.640
<v Speaker 1>all of you who under my last video on Wednesday

0:00:33.920 --> 0:00:38.080
<v Speaker 1>sent you know, just really thoughtful messages and well wishes

0:00:38.240 --> 0:00:40.879
<v Speaker 1>and just encouragement. You know, we can all use it,

0:00:41.320 --> 0:00:44.639
<v Speaker 1>I feel like in this moment in time, but especially

0:00:44.640 --> 0:00:48.200
<v Speaker 1>I just appreciate knowing how the shows land for you all,

0:00:49.600 --> 0:00:52.960
<v Speaker 1>because sometimes for me I finish and I'm just like

0:00:53.120 --> 0:00:58.440
<v Speaker 1>emotionally distraught, and that is that's honestly the truth. But

0:00:58.560 --> 0:01:02.480
<v Speaker 1>this fucking week, may I, I gotta tell you Suitgate,

0:01:02.760 --> 0:01:07.280
<v Speaker 1>which is what folks are calling it around the nonsense

0:01:07.319 --> 0:01:09.800
<v Speaker 1>that is happening in the Senate with regard to the

0:01:09.920 --> 0:01:17.720
<v Speaker 1>change in dress code and also with the idea that

0:01:18.280 --> 0:01:21.880
<v Speaker 1>decorum is what the Republican Party wants. Give me a

0:01:21.920 --> 0:01:27.440
<v Speaker 1>fucking break, Susan Collins us saying that, oh, well, I

0:01:27.760 --> 0:01:29.720
<v Speaker 1>you know, then I'll just go down to votes in

0:01:29.760 --> 0:01:32.080
<v Speaker 1>a bikini, bitch, do it. I don't give a fuck,

0:01:32.440 --> 0:01:35.520
<v Speaker 1>and neither do the American people, because it is clearly

0:01:35.720 --> 0:01:38.319
<v Speaker 1>not about what you are wearing. It is about how

0:01:38.360 --> 0:01:40.640
<v Speaker 1>you are voting and what the fuck it is that

0:01:40.720 --> 0:01:45.920
<v Speaker 1>you were saying. Right, So miss me with the oh, well,

0:01:46.040 --> 0:01:49.120
<v Speaker 1>this is a dignified body. No, it is not. If

0:01:49.160 --> 0:01:52.480
<v Speaker 1>it was a dignified and deliberative body, then guess what

0:01:52.560 --> 0:01:55.240
<v Speaker 1>it would have done when it had two opportunities. It

0:01:55.280 --> 0:01:57.960
<v Speaker 1>would have voted to impeach Donald Trump because it would

0:01:58.000 --> 0:02:01.040
<v Speaker 1>have put the country ahead of its part and power.

0:02:01.200 --> 0:02:03.800
<v Speaker 1>But you all didn't do that. Right. You have members

0:02:03.800 --> 0:02:06.640
<v Speaker 1>of your party that are giving hand jobs at family

0:02:06.760 --> 0:02:10.400
<v Speaker 1>theater events. Right. You have members of your party that

0:02:10.440 --> 0:02:14.640
<v Speaker 1>have been investigated for sex trafficking. Right. You have members

0:02:14.680 --> 0:02:18.200
<v Speaker 1>of your party that find no problem in screaming down

0:02:18.280 --> 0:02:20.880
<v Speaker 1>and shouting down the President of the United States at

0:02:20.880 --> 0:02:24.080
<v Speaker 1>the State of the Union. Right. You have a leader

0:02:25.400 --> 0:02:28.919
<v Speaker 1>of your party that talks about grabbing women by the pussy,

0:02:29.080 --> 0:02:32.600
<v Speaker 1>that is going around to his rallies and signing women's boobs.

0:02:32.680 --> 0:02:35.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm pretty sure Abraham Lincoln wouldn't have done that. So

0:02:35.960 --> 0:02:40.680
<v Speaker 1>miss me with your fucking idea around decorum and what

0:02:40.760 --> 0:02:43.960
<v Speaker 1>it means to be a dignified body. You don't even

0:02:44.040 --> 0:02:47.040
<v Speaker 1>know how to be a dignified fucking party. Okay with

0:02:47.160 --> 0:02:49.960
<v Speaker 1>the riff rap gutter rats that you have allowed to

0:02:50.000 --> 0:02:53.600
<v Speaker 1>take over, Miss me with it. You saw that on

0:02:53.639 --> 0:02:59.160
<v Speaker 1>the House floor during those fifteen those fourteen failed votes

0:02:59.360 --> 0:03:01.480
<v Speaker 1>for that fish, that's your price, Speaker of the House,

0:03:01.840 --> 0:03:04.800
<v Speaker 1>that two members of Congress almost came fist to blows.

0:03:05.080 --> 0:03:07.800
<v Speaker 1>But this is the party that wants the lecturers on Decora,

0:03:08.360 --> 0:03:13.160
<v Speaker 1>Fox News wants to run segments about suits. Give me

0:03:13.440 --> 0:03:20.000
<v Speaker 1>a break, friends. It's like it's as if they think

0:03:20.080 --> 0:03:23.080
<v Speaker 1>all of us are stupid, right, that we are just

0:03:23.200 --> 0:03:25.680
<v Speaker 1>sitting around and just believe the words that are coming

0:03:25.720 --> 0:03:28.280
<v Speaker 1>out of coming out of their mouths as opposed to

0:03:28.360 --> 0:03:31.840
<v Speaker 1>the actions that they display on a regular basis. We

0:03:31.880 --> 0:03:36.800
<v Speaker 1>had a member just recently want to attack Merrick Garland

0:03:37.160 --> 0:03:40.600
<v Speaker 1>write and say that he slow walked investigations on Hillary

0:03:40.600 --> 0:03:43.720
<v Speaker 1>Clinton and slow walked on Hunter Biden, but went full

0:03:43.760 --> 0:03:47.120
<v Speaker 1>speed ahead on Donald Trump. And the insurrectionists were filled

0:03:47.120 --> 0:03:50.320
<v Speaker 1>with people pushing baby cards and they were just good

0:03:50.360 --> 0:03:53.720
<v Speaker 1>citizens and tourists that wanted their country to do better

0:03:53.720 --> 0:03:58.280
<v Speaker 1>for them. Bitch, shut up Republicans please stop rewriting what

0:03:58.320 --> 0:04:00.080
<v Speaker 1>it is that we all saw with our own you

0:04:00.160 --> 0:04:03.200
<v Speaker 1>fucking eyes. And you're right about one thing. Yeah, Marrey

0:04:03.240 --> 0:04:06.080
<v Speaker 1>Garland does slow walk. He slow walks every fucking thing.

0:04:06.240 --> 0:04:08.800
<v Speaker 1>Because the reason why that we have an insurrectionist at

0:04:08.840 --> 0:04:10.680
<v Speaker 1>the top of the ticket right now is because he

0:04:10.760 --> 0:04:14.000
<v Speaker 1>decided to not start investigating him until last fucking year

0:04:15.160 --> 0:04:19.599
<v Speaker 1>two years have passed, right, and was hoping maybe Donald

0:04:19.640 --> 0:04:22.000
<v Speaker 1>Trump won't run for president, so I won't have to

0:04:22.040 --> 0:04:25.200
<v Speaker 1>do my job. So that's the only thing that you're

0:04:25.279 --> 0:04:31.120
<v Speaker 1>right about. But talking about the the insurrectionists being filled

0:04:31.120 --> 0:04:35.080
<v Speaker 1>with people that were pushing babies, right, that were just

0:04:35.640 --> 0:04:39.680
<v Speaker 1>well meaning citizens, bitch. We saw them climbing walls, clabbering

0:04:39.720 --> 0:04:44.039
<v Speaker 1>the police, shitting in the Capitol building. What are you

0:04:44.160 --> 0:04:48.720
<v Speaker 1>talking about. No matter how many times that the Republican

0:04:48.760 --> 0:04:51.080
<v Speaker 1>Party wants to say that this was just some type

0:04:51.080 --> 0:04:54.320
<v Speaker 1>of lost tourist group, all you have to say are

0:04:54.400 --> 0:04:59.360
<v Speaker 1>run the tapes from every fucking angle, thousands of people.

0:05:00.240 --> 0:05:04.479
<v Speaker 1>Donald Trump was made aware. Cassidy Hutchinson told us the

0:05:04.520 --> 0:05:07.040
<v Speaker 1>people that are in the crowd, sir, they have weapons,

0:05:07.440 --> 0:05:13.080
<v Speaker 1>They're not here to harm me. Let them through. You

0:05:13.120 --> 0:05:15.560
<v Speaker 1>want to talk about decorum. You want to talk about

0:05:15.600 --> 0:05:20.880
<v Speaker 1>suits and ties. I don't give a fuck. This Republican

0:05:20.920 --> 0:05:26.279
<v Speaker 1>Party has zero decorum, has zero class, has zero tact

0:05:26.480 --> 0:05:31.520
<v Speaker 1>and zero care about democracy or this country. So you

0:05:31.600 --> 0:05:35.080
<v Speaker 1>can distract with all of your talk around what it

0:05:35.160 --> 0:05:37.600
<v Speaker 1>is that people are wearing. I care more about what

0:05:37.640 --> 0:05:42.200
<v Speaker 1>people are doing or not doing, and the people inside

0:05:42.200 --> 0:05:46.000
<v Speaker 1>of this Republican Party, what they are doing is continuing

0:05:46.040 --> 0:05:51.560
<v Speaker 1>on with their coup to undo American democracy, continue on

0:05:51.760 --> 0:05:56.200
<v Speaker 1>with their desire to not only police the wombs of people,

0:05:56.240 --> 0:06:01.440
<v Speaker 1>but also police their movement. Right that are making it

0:06:01.560 --> 0:06:07.440
<v Speaker 1>sure that if you're right child is raped, that they

0:06:07.480 --> 0:06:12.159
<v Speaker 1>have absolutely no recourse right that they believe. You know

0:06:12.279 --> 0:06:15.559
<v Speaker 1>that any child is a gift from God, right doesn't

0:06:15.640 --> 0:06:19.560
<v Speaker 1>matter the trauma that they were born out of. These

0:06:19.560 --> 0:06:21.440
<v Speaker 1>are the same people that are taking books off of

0:06:21.480 --> 0:06:24.239
<v Speaker 1>the shelf and saying that your kids are not old

0:06:24.360 --> 0:06:28.080
<v Speaker 1>enough to be uncomfortable with this history, but with this

0:06:28.160 --> 0:06:32.360
<v Speaker 1>country's past history, but you're old enough to be named

0:06:32.360 --> 0:06:35.320
<v Speaker 1>a mother at ten years old, which was an actual

0:06:35.400 --> 0:06:37.920
<v Speaker 1>case of a young girl that was raped at ten

0:06:38.000 --> 0:06:40.120
<v Speaker 1>years old, had to leave her state so that she

0:06:40.160 --> 0:06:44.640
<v Speaker 1>could go to another one to get an abortion, not

0:06:44.760 --> 0:06:46.960
<v Speaker 1>old enough to read a book, but old enough to

0:06:47.760 --> 0:06:52.800
<v Speaker 1>breastfeed and be a mother. That's the Republican Party, right

0:06:53.279 --> 0:06:57.760
<v Speaker 1>want to keep people with uteruses under educated in a house,

0:06:58.680 --> 0:07:06.080
<v Speaker 1>locked in to motherhood, no opportunities and no pathway out.

0:07:06.920 --> 0:07:10.720
<v Speaker 1>I just and so when I see this story, like,

0:07:10.800 --> 0:07:14.400
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't not say anything about it because on its

0:07:14.480 --> 0:07:18.760
<v Speaker 1>face it's ridiculous, But it also goes to show you

0:07:18.840 --> 0:07:22.960
<v Speaker 1>the blatant hypocrisy that these people still believe in their

0:07:23.080 --> 0:07:26.400
<v Speaker 1>minds that they're the ones that are dignified, that they're

0:07:26.440 --> 0:07:29.720
<v Speaker 1>the ones that are the grown ups in the room.

0:07:32.680 --> 0:07:38.720
<v Speaker 1>When you allowed the clowns to run the circus, right like,

0:07:39.080 --> 0:07:45.120
<v Speaker 1>you lost all credibility. When Marjorie Taylor Green is your

0:07:45.320 --> 0:07:53.320
<v Speaker 1>mascot for Republican morality, you've lost all credibility. You got

0:07:53.840 --> 0:07:57.960
<v Speaker 1>Kevin McCarthy right now, who everyone is writing articles about

0:07:58.640 --> 0:08:00.800
<v Speaker 1>the fact that he is failing because we thought he

0:08:00.920 --> 0:08:03.840
<v Speaker 1>was going to succeed. He failed fourteen times before he

0:08:03.880 --> 0:08:07.200
<v Speaker 1>could get it up write the votes. So give me

0:08:07.240 --> 0:08:08.920
<v Speaker 1>a break, because we thought that he was going to

0:08:09.000 --> 0:08:12.200
<v Speaker 1>be some type of memorable and powerful speaker. I don't

0:08:12.200 --> 0:08:16.280
<v Speaker 1>think so. But if we have a government shutdown, which

0:08:16.320 --> 0:08:18.560
<v Speaker 1>it's looking more and more likely that that is going

0:08:18.640 --> 0:08:21.920
<v Speaker 1>to happen. It is going to arrest, surely on the

0:08:21.960 --> 0:08:25.760
<v Speaker 1>shoulders of Kevin McCarthy for his inability to get his

0:08:25.920 --> 0:08:29.520
<v Speaker 1>caucus together because he gave the keys to the car

0:08:29.880 --> 0:08:32.640
<v Speaker 1>to the Freedom Caucus. The Freedom Caucus doesn't give a

0:08:32.640 --> 0:08:35.280
<v Speaker 1>fuck about freedom. The Freedom Caucus doesn't also give a

0:08:35.280 --> 0:08:37.640
<v Speaker 1>fuck about law and order. The Freedom Caucus doesn't give

0:08:37.679 --> 0:08:40.720
<v Speaker 1>a fuck about the American public or also making good

0:08:40.760 --> 0:08:44.360
<v Speaker 1>on our debts. The Freedom Calcus cares a lot about

0:08:44.400 --> 0:08:48.760
<v Speaker 1>Hunter Biden's laptop, though, and trying to bring down President Biden.

0:08:49.000 --> 0:08:51.000
<v Speaker 1>Here's the thing that I want people to understand and

0:08:51.120 --> 0:08:55.680
<v Speaker 1>just know. They've been investigating Hunter Biden for five years,

0:08:57.120 --> 0:09:01.679
<v Speaker 1>five years, and they came out with some trumped up

0:09:01.760 --> 0:09:07.680
<v Speaker 1>charges that are politicized because anyone else wouldn't be charged,

0:09:07.920 --> 0:09:12.199
<v Speaker 1>but because he's a Biden, he's being charged. But because

0:09:12.679 --> 0:09:16.880
<v Speaker 1>Jared Kushner right, and Evanka Trump are associated with Donald Trump,

0:09:17.080 --> 0:09:20.240
<v Speaker 1>they can't be charged, even though they were members of

0:09:20.280 --> 0:09:23.360
<v Speaker 1>the actual administration that they gripped it off of and

0:09:23.400 --> 0:09:27.679
<v Speaker 1>got two billion dollars from the Saudis. Republicans don't want

0:09:27.679 --> 0:09:33.040
<v Speaker 1>an investigation into Trump, who is blatantly crimbing up and

0:09:33.080 --> 0:09:38.480
<v Speaker 1>down this motherfucking block. Right, But five years you got

0:09:38.640 --> 0:09:42.480
<v Speaker 1>more than enough time, more than enough taxpayer dollars to

0:09:42.559 --> 0:09:45.480
<v Speaker 1>come up with something, and you come up with bupkis

0:09:45.679 --> 0:09:48.760
<v Speaker 1>You come up right with the Department of Justice coming

0:09:48.800 --> 0:09:51.880
<v Speaker 1>out and saying that they're going to charge him with

0:09:52.000 --> 0:09:55.720
<v Speaker 1>some gun charges that they know are flabby because they

0:09:55.720 --> 0:10:00.720
<v Speaker 1>were already thrown out in court someplace else that said

0:10:00.760 --> 0:10:04.880
<v Speaker 1>whether or not somebody has been on drugs apparently is

0:10:05.040 --> 0:10:08.400
<v Speaker 1>not an issue with them having a firearm and goes

0:10:08.440 --> 0:10:12.280
<v Speaker 1>against their Second Amendment rights. But that's the charge that

0:10:12.320 --> 0:10:14.720
<v Speaker 1>the Department of Justice came out with, why because of

0:10:14.760 --> 0:10:19.960
<v Speaker 1>pressure from the right. So folks, you know, we see

0:10:20.000 --> 0:10:23.040
<v Speaker 1>these things, right, and we see these stories and we

0:10:23.120 --> 0:10:27.120
<v Speaker 1>get caught up in them. And I appreciate uh Senator

0:10:27.160 --> 0:10:32.400
<v Speaker 1>John Fetterman being like, you know, fuck this group, these

0:10:32.480 --> 0:10:34.480
<v Speaker 1>bunch of jag offs is what he called them. And

0:10:34.520 --> 0:10:37.040
<v Speaker 1>I was just like, you know what, I got to agree.

0:10:38.920 --> 0:10:42.320
<v Speaker 1>I don't care what people wear. I don't I care

0:10:42.360 --> 0:10:45.199
<v Speaker 1>what they do. Right, you want to go and cast

0:10:45.200 --> 0:10:47.520
<v Speaker 1>a vote in a fucking bikini in a two to

0:10:47.520 --> 0:10:50.240
<v Speaker 1>two in a you know, in a scuba suit. I

0:10:50.280 --> 0:10:52.240
<v Speaker 1>don't give a fuck so long as the votes that

0:10:52.320 --> 0:10:55.960
<v Speaker 1>you were casting are about progressing and not depressing or

0:10:56.040 --> 0:11:02.240
<v Speaker 1>opressing the American public. So that is basically all of

0:11:02.240 --> 0:11:05.000
<v Speaker 1>my fuckets. Oh no, there's not Sorry, there's another one

0:11:05.559 --> 0:11:13.360
<v Speaker 1>before I move into my feeling portion of Friday. But

0:11:14.760 --> 0:11:20.400
<v Speaker 1>the other piece, friends, is this Rupert Murdoch has announced

0:11:21.440 --> 0:11:25.760
<v Speaker 1>that he is stepping down from his post that he's

0:11:25.920 --> 0:11:31.880
<v Speaker 1>held to destroy the minds of Fox viewers over the

0:11:31.920 --> 0:11:38.079
<v Speaker 1>last seventy years. Seventy years, this man has been funneling

0:11:38.800 --> 0:11:43.240
<v Speaker 1>absolute lies and bullshit, and now, at the end of

0:11:43.280 --> 0:11:47.840
<v Speaker 1>his life, his network has been slapped with I don't

0:11:47.880 --> 0:11:51.560
<v Speaker 1>even know how many lawsuits at this point. Right, they've

0:11:51.600 --> 0:11:54.160
<v Speaker 1>already had to pay out nearly a billion dollars. And

0:11:54.200 --> 0:11:58.280
<v Speaker 1>I would love, I would love Rupert Murdoch to live

0:11:58.400 --> 0:12:06.560
<v Speaker 1>long enough to see that god forsaken network go absolutely bankrupt.

0:12:06.760 --> 0:12:09.680
<v Speaker 1>That's what I want, right, That's what I want. I

0:12:09.679 --> 0:12:11.720
<v Speaker 1>don't want. I don't even want them to be shut down,

0:12:12.600 --> 0:12:17.480
<v Speaker 1>you know, or regulated because they want to use Oh,

0:12:17.520 --> 0:12:19.920
<v Speaker 1>it's free speech. It's free speech to lie to the

0:12:19.960 --> 0:12:23.200
<v Speaker 1>American people. No, I don't care about that. I want

0:12:23.240 --> 0:12:26.760
<v Speaker 1>the whole place to be shuddered because they are bankrupt

0:12:27.600 --> 0:12:30.959
<v Speaker 1>from paying out to all of the people that they

0:12:31.000 --> 0:12:34.640
<v Speaker 1>have lied on. That's what I want to see. And

0:12:34.840 --> 0:12:38.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, he passes his evil wand down to his

0:12:38.720 --> 0:12:42.560
<v Speaker 1>son Lachlan Lackey that we can call him, because that's

0:12:42.600 --> 0:12:46.360
<v Speaker 1>what he is, is his father's Lackey, right, Who's going

0:12:46.400 --> 0:12:50.640
<v Speaker 1>to carry the torch of right wing extremism, white supremacy

0:12:51.000 --> 0:12:56.120
<v Speaker 1>and lies. So bravo, hope you can feel Daddy doctor

0:12:56.200 --> 0:13:04.440
<v Speaker 1>Evil's shoes moving on though, folks. I posted this image

0:13:05.360 --> 0:13:10.400
<v Speaker 1>on my Instagram yesterday that was probably one of the

0:13:10.440 --> 0:13:15.760
<v Speaker 1>most beautiful images I had seen, shot from a storm

0:13:16.080 --> 0:13:20.160
<v Speaker 1>in Arizona. And if you go to my Instagram at

0:13:20.240 --> 0:13:26.840
<v Speaker 1>D two sense dee twcnts, you see this shot of

0:13:26.880 --> 0:13:32.320
<v Speaker 1>a gray sky with two major lightning bolts coming down

0:13:32.320 --> 0:13:37.080
<v Speaker 1>to the ground and it meets a rainbow. The lightning

0:13:37.120 --> 0:13:42.040
<v Speaker 1>bolt actually meets a rainbow. And when I saw the

0:13:42.120 --> 0:13:48.760
<v Speaker 1>image I first saw it on Heavy Discussions Instagram page.

0:13:48.840 --> 0:13:52.280
<v Speaker 1>I was just in awe this lightning bolt in the

0:13:52.320 --> 0:13:57.720
<v Speaker 1>midst of this storm meeting a rainbow, and it was

0:13:57.800 --> 0:14:03.720
<v Speaker 1>such a perfect visual representation of the times that we

0:14:03.760 --> 0:14:07.840
<v Speaker 1>are living in. And what I put in my caption

0:14:09.320 --> 0:14:13.960
<v Speaker 1>was essentially that this is the visual representation of the

0:14:14.040 --> 0:14:17.560
<v Speaker 1>violent tempest that we are living in. Whether you are

0:14:17.600 --> 0:14:21.800
<v Speaker 1>in the United States, you are in Europe, you are

0:14:23.440 --> 0:14:27.480
<v Speaker 1>in a country on the continent of Africa, you are

0:14:28.160 --> 0:14:35.400
<v Speaker 1>in Asia, anywhere things are not trending well. Climate crises

0:14:37.120 --> 0:14:42.800
<v Speaker 1>are headline issues every day, earthquakes, floods, fires that are

0:14:42.840 --> 0:14:48.560
<v Speaker 1>taking thousands, thousands of people's lives in an instant, shootings

0:14:49.560 --> 0:14:56.280
<v Speaker 1>right that are taking people's lives in an instant. And

0:14:58.120 --> 0:15:05.040
<v Speaker 1>yet the picture to me is also a reminder that

0:15:05.840 --> 0:15:09.640
<v Speaker 1>all storms don't last. And I forget whether it was

0:15:09.760 --> 0:15:13.240
<v Speaker 1>Maya Angelou or Tony Morrison who said that eventually storms

0:15:13.280 --> 0:15:17.400
<v Speaker 1>will run out of rain and you will see a

0:15:17.440 --> 0:15:23.080
<v Speaker 1>brighter day. And I think that what is important to

0:15:23.200 --> 0:15:29.440
<v Speaker 1>consistently keep in mind as we navigate really rough, rough

0:15:29.680 --> 0:15:33.560
<v Speaker 1>emotional terrain. I don't even know how to put it

0:15:33.600 --> 0:15:36.960
<v Speaker 1>into words, but many of you folks that listen to

0:15:37.000 --> 0:15:40.120
<v Speaker 1>the shows commented under my Instagram picture saying that they

0:15:40.120 --> 0:15:43.280
<v Speaker 1>are struggling, they are struggling to center joy, they are

0:15:43.320 --> 0:15:46.480
<v Speaker 1>struggling to find joy. Many of you posted underneath this

0:15:46.560 --> 0:15:52.080
<v Speaker 1>video my patrons that said that, you know, they know

0:15:52.160 --> 0:15:55.240
<v Speaker 1>that it's important, but it's a struggle and it is

0:15:56.800 --> 0:16:04.280
<v Speaker 1>Joy requires intention, right, it requires us on a daily basis,

0:16:04.320 --> 0:16:08.640
<v Speaker 1>particularly when we have so many things like just biting

0:16:08.880 --> 0:16:13.240
<v Speaker 1>at our feet, to find the things that we truly

0:16:13.760 --> 0:16:16.880
<v Speaker 1>love that sustain us. Because I'm going to tell you,

0:16:16.960 --> 0:16:23.760
<v Speaker 1>friends that rage alone, anger alone is not sustainable. I

0:16:23.800 --> 0:16:28.360
<v Speaker 1>am learning that every single day that you can only

0:16:29.000 --> 0:16:33.160
<v Speaker 1>hold the hate, the anger, the frustration for so long

0:16:33.440 --> 0:16:35.760
<v Speaker 1>the weight becomes too hard to bear. You gotta put

0:16:35.760 --> 0:16:41.280
<v Speaker 1>it down. So that picture, for me, was this beautiful

0:16:41.480 --> 0:16:47.200
<v Speaker 1>visual representation of the fact that we are in the

0:16:47.240 --> 0:16:51.760
<v Speaker 1>midst of a storm. But at the end of the storm,

0:16:52.360 --> 0:16:55.760
<v Speaker 1>the sky's clear, the sun does come back out again.

0:16:56.200 --> 0:16:58.840
<v Speaker 1>But you have to be, as my mother says to me,

0:16:59.280 --> 0:17:02.240
<v Speaker 1>your own side unshine in the midst of the storm.

0:17:02.800 --> 0:17:05.840
<v Speaker 1>You have got to be your own ray of light

0:17:06.320 --> 0:17:09.240
<v Speaker 1>in this darkness, whatever that looks like for you. But

0:17:09.280 --> 0:17:12.119
<v Speaker 1>I'm telling you, if you are struggling, just know that

0:17:12.160 --> 0:17:15.120
<v Speaker 1>I am right there along with you. There are days

0:17:15.160 --> 0:17:18.000
<v Speaker 1>when I finish recording and I am in tears, and

0:17:18.080 --> 0:17:20.239
<v Speaker 1>I sit right here in front of my computer and

0:17:20.280 --> 0:17:22.840
<v Speaker 1>I weep. There are interviews that I've had to get

0:17:22.880 --> 0:17:25.680
<v Speaker 1>off of quickly after. I thank the people for their

0:17:25.760 --> 0:17:28.880
<v Speaker 1>time because the stories that they are sharing are heartbreaking.

0:17:30.960 --> 0:17:36.000
<v Speaker 1>We feel because we are human, because we care, because

0:17:36.040 --> 0:17:38.800
<v Speaker 1>we want to be of surface, right, we want to

0:17:38.800 --> 0:17:42.320
<v Speaker 1>be of service, I should say, and not on the surface.

0:17:44.280 --> 0:17:49.360
<v Speaker 1>And so know that you are not alone in your struggle,

0:17:49.600 --> 0:17:55.639
<v Speaker 1>and that joy requires intentionality. Happiness is fleeting. Happiness comes

0:17:55.680 --> 0:18:00.359
<v Speaker 1>in some moments, some relationships you know, and then it goes, oh, boy,

0:18:01.040 --> 0:18:05.879
<v Speaker 1>is something that you really right have to plant and sew.

0:18:08.200 --> 0:18:17.000
<v Speaker 1>So I just want folks to continue to pay attention

0:18:17.240 --> 0:18:20.399
<v Speaker 1>to what is going on, but also pay attention to

0:18:20.480 --> 0:18:25.640
<v Speaker 1>what is going on inside of you, because the way

0:18:25.680 --> 0:18:28.760
<v Speaker 1>that they win is through us feeling hopeless. The way

0:18:28.760 --> 0:18:34.359
<v Speaker 1>that they win is through us moving through disease into

0:18:34.560 --> 0:18:38.879
<v Speaker 1>disease that takes us down and takes us out. And

0:18:38.920 --> 0:18:41.200
<v Speaker 1>we need all of us to be healthy and whole

0:18:41.560 --> 0:18:47.239
<v Speaker 1>and healing as we move through this next phase of

0:18:47.280 --> 0:18:50.480
<v Speaker 1>the world, right, because it's not just the next phase

0:18:50.480 --> 0:18:53.760
<v Speaker 1>of America. It's the next phase of the world that

0:18:53.800 --> 0:18:56.919
<v Speaker 1>we are witnessing that we are transitioning in, and it

0:18:57.000 --> 0:19:02.240
<v Speaker 1>is going to depend on all of us whether that

0:19:02.280 --> 0:19:06.840
<v Speaker 1>transision is good or bad right or mixed right because

0:19:06.840 --> 0:19:12.199
<v Speaker 1>we live in pul polarity. But you know, take a

0:19:12.240 --> 0:19:15.800
<v Speaker 1>look at that image when you do have a chance,

0:19:16.520 --> 0:19:19.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, leave a comment under the page, or leave

0:19:19.920 --> 0:19:22.840
<v Speaker 1>a comment if you are one of my wonderful, amazing,

0:19:22.920 --> 0:19:26.919
<v Speaker 1>loyal patrons underneath this video and tell me what it

0:19:26.960 --> 0:19:29.439
<v Speaker 1>brings up for you. What do you see when you

0:19:29.520 --> 0:19:34.160
<v Speaker 1>see it and again share with each other? How were

0:19:34.200 --> 0:19:39.440
<v Speaker 1>you sustaining joy? Right? It comes up and it goes down.

0:19:39.440 --> 0:19:41.919
<v Speaker 1>It comes up and it goes down, because that is life.

0:19:42.600 --> 0:19:44.960
<v Speaker 1>But how do you bring yourself back up? How do

0:19:45.000 --> 0:19:49.879
<v Speaker 1>you decide to continue keeping on and keeping on? That's

0:19:49.920 --> 0:19:54.399
<v Speaker 1>how by sharing and caring is how I think that

0:19:54.440 --> 0:20:02.280
<v Speaker 1>we will make it through. That is it for me today,
