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 --> 00:00:07,360 Speaker 1: I just needed to talk to you guys today. I 3 00:00:07,400 --> 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 00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:19,360 Speaker 1: and we recorded a podcast and try to come in 6 00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:21,760 Speaker 1: and talk about some of the things happening in our 7 00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:24,800 Speaker 1: world right now. And I realized as I listened to 8 00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:28,160 Speaker 1: it that I'm still just way too emotional to talk 9 00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:33,160 Speaker 1: about it. The struggle I have with having a podcast 10 00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:37,440 Speaker 1: is that I do feel this responsibility. I have an audience, 11 00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:40,559 Speaker 1: I have, you know, a voice, and I feel this 12 00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:43,760 Speaker 1: responsibility to use it for good, especially in this world 13 00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:47,120 Speaker 1: right now, and just with everything going on and all 14 00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:51,920 Speaker 1: the negativity and all the fighting, and sometimes I don't 15 00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:55,920 Speaker 1: know what to do either. And I am a big feeler, 16 00:00:56,040 --> 00:01:00,959 Speaker 1: as most of you know, and that makes it difficult 17 00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:03,760 Speaker 1: to navigate. So sometimes I'm coming from a place of 18 00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:07,760 Speaker 1: just feeling completely depleted because I'm feeling the weight of 19 00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:11,880 Speaker 1: everything happening, of all the fighting, of all of the 20 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:15,200 Speaker 1: negative forces just coming at all of us at all times, 21 00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:19,560 Speaker 1: of all the social media post everything, just the divisiveness 22 00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:21,640 Speaker 1: in general. It's a lot for a person like me 23 00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:24,880 Speaker 1: because I absorb all of it. So I want to 24 00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:29,520 Speaker 1: come and bring love and bring entertainment when we can, 25 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:34,520 Speaker 1: and also bring education and information and ways to help 26 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:37,640 Speaker 1: and information that I'm given because I do have this platform. 27 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:40,920 Speaker 1: And that was our goal yesterday. But I really just 28 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:44,920 Speaker 1: didn't feel like I communicated in a way that I 29 00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:47,280 Speaker 1: felt good about. I was just a little bit too 30 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,559 Speaker 1: volatile myself, and that doesn't feel like the right answer 31 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,600 Speaker 1: for me as far as what I'm here to bring 32 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 1: to you guys or to this world in general, and 33 00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 1: so I wanted to just take a little pause. I'm 34 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:02,360 Speaker 1: still navigating how to do all of this. It's not 35 00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:05,160 Speaker 1: like our world has looked the way that it's looked 36 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:08,120 Speaker 1: since I've had a podcast, and our content here has 37 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:10,400 Speaker 1: changed a little bit because of that, and also just 38 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:14,359 Speaker 1: because of our own evolution and what my interest are, 39 00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:18,640 Speaker 1: what chips interests are, and our own personal growth. I 40 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 1: think the conversations have gotten a little deeper and we're 41 00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 1: seeking a little more, and so that's kind of where 42 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 1: the topics have gone. But I want to make sure 43 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 1: that I am doing myself a service and doing you 44 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 1: guys a service anytime we do bring a podcast to you. 45 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:41,240 Speaker 1: So we had kind of gone into the land of 46 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:44,720 Speaker 1: gun laws and trying to help how we could there. 47 00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:47,240 Speaker 1: There's so much stuff happening right now that it's completely 48 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:50,800 Speaker 1: overwhelming to me, and I don't really know where to start. 49 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 1: So I decided, like, let's just pick a place to start, 50 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 1: and if none of us are here and we're all dead, 51 00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,480 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 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 1: actually not as far divided from each other as some 54 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:10,080 Speaker 1: of the other issues, Like maybe we're a little closer 55 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 1: than we think on that one, because I know that 56 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:15,680 Speaker 1: we really do, ultimately all want to be alive and 57 00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:19,360 Speaker 1: live this life and enjoy it. So Chip and I 58 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 1: came and we're not saying let's take away guns or 59 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 1: anything like that. And so we also brought in some 60 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:27,240 Speaker 1: people that are going to be on the podcast this 61 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:31,040 Speaker 1: month to just tell the stories. We have Crystal Miller 62 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 1: coming on the podcast next week, and she was a 63 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 1: survivor of Columbine and her story was just so impactful 64 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 1: to me because we could hear it from the voice 65 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 1: of someone who's been there. You know. She was in 66 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 1: the library, the place where most of the desks at 67 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 1: Columbine happened, and she watched a lot of her friends 68 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:55,320 Speaker 1: be killed or heavily injured and had to escape, and 69 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 1: she was just one of the lucky ones that got away. 70 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 1: And so now she's changed her life into her mission 71 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:05,840 Speaker 1: has now become helping other people who have been survivors. 72 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 1: And it's so sad to me that we even have 73 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 1: to have resources like that. But I'm so grateful for 74 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:14,480 Speaker 1: people like Crystal, who are you writing books to help 75 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:19,360 Speaker 1: kids understand what's going on at their schools, or starting 76 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:23,040 Speaker 1: a foundation at on Site, which is a big therapeutic 77 00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:27,279 Speaker 1: center here for survivors so they have a place to 78 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 1: go so they know they're not alone. And she'll tell 79 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:31,719 Speaker 1: you all the details about that next week in the podcast. 80 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:34,560 Speaker 1: She's an amazing guest. I'm so grateful that she was 81 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:36,840 Speaker 1: here because one of the main things I feel like 82 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:40,839 Speaker 1: we miss is empathy right now and just putting ourselves 83 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 1: in another person's shoes to understand what it would feel like. 84 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:47,159 Speaker 1: And a lot of us can get wrapped up in 85 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:50,880 Speaker 1: our own lives and we forget to think about, you know, 86 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 1: that could be me. And in this situation, I really 87 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:55,920 Speaker 1: do feel like it could be any of us at 88 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:58,599 Speaker 1: any time. And I know if I had kids, I 89 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 1: wouldn't want to be sent them off to school to 90 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 1: wonder if that was going to happen on any given day. 91 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:08,920 Speaker 1: It's really really scary. We also have a woman from 92 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:11,080 Speaker 1: every town, which I know can be a little bit 93 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:16,800 Speaker 1: of a divided organization for some people, but she was 94 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:22,080 Speaker 1: amazing and it wasn't geared towards anything other than education. 95 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:26,239 Speaker 1: She's also a gun owner. She's lost people to gun violence, 96 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:28,839 Speaker 1: many people in her life actually, and so she was 97 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,159 Speaker 1: speaking from a place of just educating us about the 98 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:34,520 Speaker 1: simple things that could change for the safety. You know. 99 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 1: She used the analogy of you don't just get behind 100 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 1: the wheel of a car and drive. We have to 101 00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:41,719 Speaker 1: go to driver's ed. You have to take a test, 102 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 1: you have to get a license, And that's all we're 103 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 1: really trying to say here. And so she gave the 104 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:50,160 Speaker 1: educational aspects like that, and then she also gave tools 105 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 1: and resources that of simple things that each of us 106 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:56,599 Speaker 1: can do to actually make a difference, because I know 107 00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:58,919 Speaker 1: a lot of us are feeling really hopeless and helpless 108 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 1: right now because we us don't know where to start. 109 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 1: So both of those will be coming to you guys 110 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:07,400 Speaker 1: in the next couple of weeks. I'm not sure how 111 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 1: we're going to navigate the other topics happening, but I 112 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:15,080 Speaker 1: did sort of think about that because I'm not sure 113 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:18,839 Speaker 1: that it's my podcast that will be the place where 114 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:21,559 Speaker 1: everyone should go to find out information. If there's something 115 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:23,720 Speaker 1: that I feel really lad to talk about, I'm going 116 00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:25,719 Speaker 1: to talk about it. But I don't want this to 117 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:27,800 Speaker 1: become a political podcast. And I know a lot of 118 00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 1: us are also really really overwhelmed with everything coming at 119 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 1: us at all times, and sometimes you just need a break, 120 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 1: and so I will do my best to navigate that 121 00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:42,160 Speaker 1: as well. I'm feeling all of the same thing you 122 00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 1: guys are feeling. And one of the things that I 123 00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:46,400 Speaker 1: really like to make known over and over and over 124 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:49,680 Speaker 1: as I'm just human and so as chip and you know, 125 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:52,080 Speaker 1: some days are better than others. Right now, and for 126 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:55,840 Speaker 1: the most part, I've spent my week trying to get 127 00:06:55,839 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 1: my footing and find my footing again and get out 128 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 1: and take the next right step. So what I do 129 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 1: think that I can bring is some tools for that, 130 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:09,240 Speaker 1: because those are things that I actually really do in 131 00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:13,240 Speaker 1: my life at all times. And I know as a 132 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:16,239 Speaker 1: deep feeler sometimes I have to take steps even greater 133 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 1: than other people to be able to navigate life. And 134 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:22,000 Speaker 1: so if I can offer you, guys, any hope or 135 00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:25,280 Speaker 1: any help at how to process all the things that 136 00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:27,680 Speaker 1: are happening, and also just to get back in touch 137 00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 1: with yourself. And if you believe in a higher power Christian, 138 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 1: you believe in God, Buddhists, you believe in Buddha, whatever 139 00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:40,200 Speaker 1: it is your higher power, your spiritual capacity, whatever source 140 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 1: for you is greater than us that you think you 141 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 1: could tap into right now. And if I can help 142 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:48,440 Speaker 1: you do that, that's what I want to do, is 143 00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:52,320 Speaker 1: bring the healing and the hope and the help and 144 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 1: the love that I feel in my soul that I 145 00:07:56,760 --> 00:08:03,000 Speaker 1: do believe is why I'm here. The main thing that 146 00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:05,800 Speaker 1: I thought about when thinking about what I actually wanted 147 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 1: to say to you guys, was this Buddhist story that 148 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:12,240 Speaker 1: I was told a long time ago, and it's called Maybe, 149 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:15,320 Speaker 1: and it's about this farmer and he has all of 150 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 1: these things that happen in his life that people either 151 00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 1: view as good or bad, and his only response is 152 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:26,760 Speaker 1: that he says maybe to everything that they say. And 153 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 1: I'll read the story in just a second. But the 154 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:32,600 Speaker 1: principle is that it's that we don't really ever know 155 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:35,640 Speaker 1: what is good or what is bad because we can't 156 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:38,080 Speaker 1: see the big picture here. We just see what's happening 157 00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 1: right in front of us. And so sometimes it's time 158 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,640 Speaker 1: to get quiet, and it's time to think, and it's 159 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 1: time to meditate, and it's time to calm our bodies 160 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:50,440 Speaker 1: and find peace within ourselves and be open to whatever 161 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:52,840 Speaker 1: it is the universe is bringing. So all of this 162 00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:57,679 Speaker 1: stuff right now feels so incredibly painful and so scary 163 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:02,720 Speaker 1: and so difficult to navigate, and we don't know why 164 00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:05,800 Speaker 1: it's happening yet. We don't know what it's bringing to us, 165 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:08,720 Speaker 1: and we don't know what doors it could actually be 166 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 1: opening for our world, for unity, for love, for getting 167 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:17,000 Speaker 1: rid of some of this divisiveness maybe, or bringing us 168 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 1: together finally. So all with that, I'll read the story 169 00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:25,160 Speaker 1: a Buddhist story, maybe, said the farmer. Once upon the time, 170 00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:27,679 Speaker 1: in ancient China, there lived an old farmer who worked 171 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,840 Speaker 1: with crops for many years. He was considered a wealthy 172 00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:34,120 Speaker 1: man because he had a horse to help them with plowing. 173 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 1: One early spring morning, his horse ran off When the 174 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:40,520 Speaker 1: villagers heard this, they hastened to his home to express 175 00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:44,640 Speaker 1: their sympathy. What a terrible thing, they lamented, But all 176 00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:48,600 Speaker 1: the farmer said was maybe. The next morning, his horse returned, 177 00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:52,120 Speaker 1: leading with it an entire herd of wild mustangs. The 178 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:56,040 Speaker 1: townspeople rushed over, exclaiming at as good fortune. Now you 179 00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:59,080 Speaker 1: are the richest man in the province. But all the 180 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:03,679 Speaker 1: farmers said was maybe. The following morning, the farmer's only 181 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 1: son began breaking in one of the wild horses. It 182 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:10,360 Speaker 1: promptly threw him, and his leg was broken. The townspeople 183 00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:14,360 Speaker 1: rushed over in alarm. What a terrible thing, they wept. 184 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:16,840 Speaker 1: Without the help of your only son, how can you 185 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 1: plant your fields? But all the farmer said was maybe. 186 00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:24,319 Speaker 1: The next morning, the emperor's soldiers rode into town, kicking 187 00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:26,880 Speaker 1: up an enormous cloud of dust. They had come to 188 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:29,360 Speaker 1: conscript all of the young men into war, but the 189 00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:31,800 Speaker 1: farmer's son could not go because of his broken leg. 190 00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 1: The townspeople once again gathered around to marvel at the 191 00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 1: farmer's good luck, but all he said was maybe. The 192 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 1: story continued to continues in the same fashion for many 193 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:47,479 Speaker 1: more verses, illustrating the important principle of balance non attachment 194 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:51,319 Speaker 1: in its relationship with faith, Incidents that appear either good 195 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:54,679 Speaker 1: or bad can never be judged. In isolation. Life is 196 00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 1: a paradox in which all things are relative and interrelated 197 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 1: and interdependent on each other. Unwise masses fears let me 198 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 1: try that one again. The unwise masses fear misfortune and 199 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:13,720 Speaker 1: long for good fortune. But if this distinction is carefully studied, 200 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:16,760 Speaker 1: misfortune often turns out to be good fortune, and good 201 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 1: fortune turns out to be misfortune. The wise master learns 202 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 1: to meet the changing circumstances of life with an equitable spirit, 203 00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 1: being neither elated by success nor depressed by failure. Thus 204 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:32,720 Speaker 1: one recognizes the truth of non duality. There are no 205 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:37,680 Speaker 1: obstacles on the path. That obstacles are the path. I 206 00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:39,360 Speaker 1: don't know if you guys resonate with that, but it 207 00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 1: really hits me because I know so many times in 208 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,040 Speaker 1: my life I've thought my life is over or the 209 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 1: most devastating thing has happened, And ultimately the universe is 210 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:50,600 Speaker 1: just taking things out of my life that I didn't 211 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 1: need or bringing in things that I need more more 212 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 1: in alignment for my greater good, whatever it may be. 213 00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:01,800 Speaker 1: But sometimes I just have to remind myself that I 214 00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:05,360 Speaker 1: just don't know what. I just don't know. So for today, 215 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:08,120 Speaker 1: I am going to take the next right step and 216 00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 1: I'm just going to tell you guys how I feel. 217 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:12,680 Speaker 1: And that was how I feel. And I don't feel 218 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:15,040 Speaker 1: like I want to bring any more volatility or any 219 00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:18,800 Speaker 1: more negative energy into this world right now, and I 220 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:21,080 Speaker 1: just want to stay peaceful and stay calm and send 221 00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:24,959 Speaker 1: you guys love as we navigate a really tricky time. 222 00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:28,559 Speaker 1: I'm not even gonna stay tough because although it feels 223 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:31,560 Speaker 1: really tough, I'd know that we can do it, As 224 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 1: Glenn and Doyle always says, I know we can do 225 00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:36,280 Speaker 1: hard things. So I hope you guys are taking care 226 00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 1: of yourselves and taking a deep breath, finding the peace 227 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:43,360 Speaker 1: within yourselves, within your families, within your friends, just looking 228 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:46,079 Speaker 1: at all the love and things we have to be 229 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:48,880 Speaker 1: grateful for, because there are a lot of those things 230 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:52,600 Speaker 1: out there. So stay tuned for more from us. And 231 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 1: like I said, we do have some interesting, hopefully positive 232 00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 1: tools and education for you guys coming about some gun laws. 233 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:04,160 Speaker 1: But again, we're not going to be bringing any more 234 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:09,480 Speaker 1: volatility or fighting or super strong political opinions. Although we 235 00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:12,240 Speaker 1: do have our own, you know, I just don't know 236 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 1: that that's helping anything right now. So we're going to 237 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:16,920 Speaker 1: do our best one day at a time, and I 238 00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:19,439 Speaker 1: think as we navigate all of this, the best thing 239 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:21,079 Speaker 1: we can do for each other is just off for 240 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:23,560 Speaker 1: grace as we do a little bit of trial and 241 00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:26,000 Speaker 1: error and see what works for us. The last thing 242 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,880 Speaker 1: I'll leave you guys with is in the podcast description, 243 00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:30,960 Speaker 1: I'm going to put a link to a meditation I 244 00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 1: do by Eckhart Tolle, and it's just about basically the 245 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:39,000 Speaker 1: same thing as a story I just read, but it 246 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:43,080 Speaker 1: really talks about just accepting life as it is right now, 247 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 1: and life on life's terms is sometimes really tricky for me. 248 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:50,800 Speaker 1: But ultimately the most piece I ever find is when 249 00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:55,040 Speaker 1: I just accept things as they are for today and 250 00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:58,199 Speaker 1: open myself up to what the universe might be bringing in. 251 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:02,520 Speaker 1: I love you, guys, and I hope everyone is going 252 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 1: to have a wonderful weekend. I could try to do 253 00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:09,120 Speaker 1: the ending on my own as you navigate through this 254 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:14,760 Speaker 1: weekend and go into life. Yeah, this is really terrible, 255 00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 1: but I do hope you guys always remember to act casual. Bye.
