• 2:16
  Speaker 1: I'm I'm getting it. I'm getting it done to the
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: best of my abilities. Now. Something funny my father taught me.
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: He says, son, when you've done all you can do,
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: if you've done your absolute best and you look up
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: and it didn't get the job done, take a deep
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: breath and do some more. That used to bug me, man,
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: when my father used to tell me, that's the son,
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: when you've done your absolute best, and you think you k'
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: do no more. You've done all you can and it
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: still don't get the job done. Take yourself a deep
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: breath and do some more. And you know what I
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: found that has worked every single time, every single time,
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: because what my father knew was that what you think
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: is your breaking point, or what you think is you're
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: all at all? He says, son, it's just something about it. Man.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: If you just gather yourself, you got a little bit more.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: Everybody got some more. And you know, I gotta be
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: honest with you. It has worked. It has helped me greatly.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: And um, you know if everybody does have some more.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: You know, I tell that to my sons all the time,
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: that I did my best well to manage to something else.
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: Could you have done anything else? Could you have studied
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: a little harder, Could you have shown up a little
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: bit earlier, could you stayed a little bit later? Yeah,
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: well then okay that's what you should have done. Then. See,
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: that's always a way. But if you're going to create excuses,
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: if you're gonna make them up all the time about
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: why you don't get it done, I have a very
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: very sad uh statement for you right now, you're never
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: gonna get anything done. You're never gonna get to the top,
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: not to the top. You can get halfway up now,
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: you can get a third of the way up, you
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: can get three quarters of the way up. But if
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: you don't have that little extra reserve in you, you're
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: not getting to the top. The top is only reserved
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: for those that have the wherewithal and the power to desire,
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: the drive and the gut reaching effort to get to
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: the top. The top is reserved only for the top.
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: It's just the top to ain't but one top then
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: the middle done it ain't it? You know, the top,
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: the top, out of the mountain, have where it's a
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: different view. At the top, things look different from up top.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: So if you want to get to the top of
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: whatever your profession, your field, your career, whatever it is,
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: you got to do extra. You have to do more.
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: More is expected of you. More. But here's what's really crazy.
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: More is required of you. Don't live your life in
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: the lacks of daisical state. Don't wake up every day
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: with the feeling of, well, you know, whatever happens happens now, man,
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: have us say so in your life. You first of all,
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: let me ask you something, Who has God named the
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: person that? How that God has given authority over you
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: named the person? Where is it in scripture? Where anywhere where?
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: Show me anywhere where it says this person has the
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: right over you, this person right here, this one right here.
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: You have to do everything they say and what they say.
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: Only show me that right there, Show me who they're
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: talking about. Certainly, certainly I have not met that person. Now.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: My parents were great to me, and there was their
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: job to offer me lead, leadership and guidance along along
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: the way. But as I grew up, man, I had
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: to go out here and get it on my you know,
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: I had to go out here and get it on
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: my own. But who is the person? Nobody has domain
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: over you. God didn't create that person. So what you're
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: sitting here for? Man? What are you sitting here for?
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: Letting people who do not know direct your path? A
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: lot of us get stopped because we we worried so
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: much about what people think about us. We worried too
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: much about what people say about us. Why are you
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: worried about all these people with what they got to
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: say about you, and all these people with what they
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: got to think about you? When here's the news flash.
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: They don't know either. All these people that you overly
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: concerned about, all these people that you going to these
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: answers for, they need answers too. Stop what are you
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: doing here? Gather yourself for a minute. Here is a
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: solution to all of that. You have one source that
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: will be there for you till the end of time,
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: and that is your relationship with God. That is the
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: one thing that's solid and for shure. He's behind the wall.
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: He's in your jail cell. He rides with you in
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: the police car. He's with you on your job up
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: at to school. He's down there in the board meetings
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: with you. He goes with you when you travel on planes.
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: He sits with you when you're in a relationship. He
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: helps you with your parents and skills. He helps you.
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: He's there to assist you. He shows if you do
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: the right things, he show you and guide you to
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: your next job. When you lose your job and you
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: think it's so wrap all, there's some good behind him. Man,
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: God is always working on your behalf. To those that
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: believe you, just gotta believe. He won't ask you for
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: nothing else. Believe in me. That's all He asked you
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: to do what you're tripping for. Man, and then when
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: you make the decision to believe in him, and it
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: comes out your mouth from time to time somewhere what
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: you're worried about, what people say, What you're worried about,
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: what they think? For? Why? Who are they? They need God?
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: To you? You? You? You're telling them you found something
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: new that you're gonna give this a shot right here. Now.
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: They got some yang ying yang and some yakety yact
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: to say about that when they need God too. That's
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: what amazes me, man about people sit up in here, man,
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: be knocking your dream and stuff. Look, if you're an atheist, man,
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: do your thing, do your thing, But you can't create
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: no law? Is why I can't do mine? Don't make
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: no sense, man, That makes no sense at all to me.
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: You have the right to go be whatever you wanna be.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: You know if you don't, you don't like the fact
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: that I'm in school. You got my head biled down
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: and I'm saying a prayer for I take this test.
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: Just don't buy your head, don't you pray? But if
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: some kids want to get to go that that's some
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: crazy mess. That's what happened in our schools. We took
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: prayer out of schools. And now look at our schools,
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: our schools. Man, you you you, you you you. You
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: send your child at school and and and someone else
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: comes back home. That's a whole another thing right here.
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: That that's not what I want to talk to you about.
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: But I was just throwing it out because you know, hey, man,
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: your relationship with God is essential to your success as
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: a person. It's essential to your existence. It's essential to
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: where you're trying to go and what you're trying to be.
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: Because He made you. Why would you not talk to
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: the person and that made you to find out what
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: he created you for. I ain't talking about your parents,
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: who made your parents? This is God, we created in
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: his image. Why would you not talk to your maker
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: to see why you got made? That? That don't that
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: don't make sense to you. If you're sitting and gotten
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: yourself in a situation, you're sitting in the jail cell somewhere,
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: you locked up, you're doing some time, man, be a
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: good time for you to reflect. But whatever your situation is, man,
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: God can get you through it. He can give you
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: the strength the courage to wherewithal the understanding everything you need,
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: the wisdom to get you through anything you're going through.
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: You just got a touch base with him. I need
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: God every single day of my life. And what he's
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: done for me. Man off the chain. But guess what

  Speaker 1: of us as a family, you know, and not just
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: the girls, but Grandma, you know, you know, we we
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: all got through this thing, and and I think you
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: know we we we did okay, So no, no, no,
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: you did way beyond. And I don't think we appreciated
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: it fully until you left because your husband made it
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: look he made it look effortless. What a class, but
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: what a class family. And you know this is really
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: just lifting the Obama's because man, you all were something
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: that the nation could be proud of, as as as
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: a family in the White House. And for that, we
• 41:10
  Speaker 1: just say thank you so much. Well, thank you, Steve,
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: and thank you. Thank thank you to you and to
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: your your listeners, because you know, you can't be great
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: unless you've got a great support system, and we've had
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: that from the beginning. So you know, I want to
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: thank everybody who set a prayer for us, and who
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: worked for us, and everybody who voted in these past
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: mid term elections. Voting doesn't matter. Let's not let that
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: slip by voting matters. Thank you for that. S that's
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: very kind of you. This is like an amazing First
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: of all, it's gonna sit at number one on the
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: New York Times Bestselling list for sixteen weeks minimum, it
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: could be more, because I think this book is what
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: we've been waiting for. Like you said, who do you
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: think you are to write a book? Well, I'll tell
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: you what. It's the book we've been waiting on the
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: because in this new book, Becoming, you talked so beautifully
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: about the community that you grew up in the importance
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: of your family. Can you share a little bit about
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: the role of your family and and and how it
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: played and how your life unfolded. Yeah, I mean, I
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: say the book is a uh story of ordinary life,
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: uh lived in an extraordinary way. Um, because how I
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: grew up, as you know, is how millions of black
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: folks grew up. You know, we grew up in a
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: community you know where we lived with our family, and
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: our family was everybody was on uncles and grandparents and
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: you know there was bid with and jazz and barbecue
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: and you know love, um, and Uh, that's what fueled
• 42:46
  Speaker 1: us in expectation. You know, even though you know my
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: parents didn't go to college, my grandparents didn't go to college.
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: They they held up a high bar for us as
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: as as as people. Um, and you know, we always
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: sell an obligation to live up to that. I mean
• 43:04
  Speaker 1: to see my father, who was disabled from the time
• 43:08
  Speaker 1: I could remember him, you know, and seeing him getting
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: up and going to work every day without complaint. I've
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: talked about this throughout my my time and politics. You know,
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: it's hard to be half baked when you are raised
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: in the house by a man like that you know. Um.
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: And every day, Steve, I live to make my family proud,
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: in my community proud. Um. But there's nothing new, you
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: know this. You know, there are communities like the one
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: I grew up in all over this nation. Um. It's
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: just important for us to tell our stories because I
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: think people think we don't exist. You know, they've got
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: what one image of what it means to be black. Um.
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: They don't know that we are so complex, and we
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: are so faithful, and that we are so uh linked
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: to our family um uh you know. And and that's
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: why I'm proud to tell my story, because I want
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: people to know all of who I am so that
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: they're not mistaken at all. And this book, you know,
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: I try to make it a story so that it's
• 44:15
  Speaker 1: not just a chronology of things. But it's a story
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: of this little girl, Michelle Robinson, who grew up on
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: the South Side with a big brother, and she got
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: into some fights, and she had some some challenges, and
• 44:27
  Speaker 1: she went to public school and she got hit in
• 44:29
  Speaker 1: the mouth by a bully and you know, she you know,
• 44:32
  Speaker 1: and and it's a it's a set of stories that
• 44:35
  Speaker 1: I hope take people along the journey because I get
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: that question all the time. It's like, how did a
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: girl from the South side of Chicago wind up this
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: first Lady of the United States? And this is the
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: answer to that, at least as that I can see
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: it coming up more with the former first Lady, Michelle
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: Obama right after this, you're listening to coming up at
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: the top of the hour, right about four minutes after,
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: it's Today's Strawberry Letter, the subject my wife and kids.
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: All right, see, you can continue your conversation with Michelle Obama.
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: You know what you said something a minute ago, you
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: said that your parents raised you and they set the
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: bar high. Is that has to be a part of
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: your what has now become your famous slogan that says
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: when they go low, we go high. That's got to
• 45:27
  Speaker 1: be behind that. Well, you know it is, you know,
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: you know, because it's not just the house we live
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: in the community. We lived with values. You know, my
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: parents lived out the values that they believed in your words,
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: your bond. You know, you know they kept their word
• 45:44
  Speaker 1: when they promised thats something, they made it happen. If
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: they couldn't do it, they put it out on the table.
• 45:49
  Speaker 1: You know. My father was the kind of father. You know.
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: My brother asked him where we rich one day, and
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: he went and took he got his paycheck, cast it all,
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: got it all in once, brought it down on the
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: kitchen table and laid out all the bills that he
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: had to pay, and he put money down on each
• 46:10
  Speaker 1: bill to cover it. Uh. And then he showed my
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: brother what was left after all the bills were paid.
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: And then he said, now you tell me, do you
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: think we're rich? Um. That's the kind of teacher my
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: father was. You know, he wasn't in your face. He
• 46:27
  Speaker 1: loved us deeply. And the other thing for me, Steve,
• 46:30
  Speaker 1: And I know, I don't want I want the men
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: to hear this for me having a father and a brother,
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: men in my life who adored me, you know, and
• 46:41
  Speaker 1: respected me. Um. When I when my brother learned to box,
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: I learned to box. When my brother learned to throw
• 46:48
  Speaker 1: a ball, I learned to throw a ball. I was
• 46:51
  Speaker 1: not a second class citizen among the men in my household.
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: I was an equal. My voice meant something to my father. Um.
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: And and it's important for men out there to understand, Steve.
• 47:04
  Speaker 1: You know this as a father to daughters, you know,
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: having a a strong man who loves you deeply, and
• 47:13
  Speaker 1: a brother who loves you deeply, who would do anything
• 47:16
  Speaker 1: for you. That that just that that I think that
• 47:20
  Speaker 1: armed me and equip me and made me ready for anything.
• 47:25
  Speaker 1: You know. You know that does give you something special,
• 47:28
  Speaker 1: doesn't it, Because it's and what you're saying is really important,
• 47:31
  Speaker 1: because its important for men to understand that even if
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: your relationship with your child's mother is strained, the importance
• 47:40
  Speaker 1: of you remaining active and available in that child's life
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: is absolutely priceless. And it is particularly priceless for the girl.
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: And I'm not saying that it doesn't matter for sons,
• 47:52
  Speaker 1: but um me having strong men in my life, you know,
• 47:57
  Speaker 1: role models. And you know I was fortunate I had.
• 48:00
  Speaker 1: I had men all around me. My both my grandparents,
• 48:03
  Speaker 1: my my grandparents, my grandfather's were alive. I grew up
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: with them, you know, my uncle's. I had tons of uncles,
• 48:11
  Speaker 1: tons of male cousins. My best of our best cousins
• 48:14
  Speaker 1: with two boys and we would box and roll around
• 48:17
  Speaker 1: and you know, I was right up in there with them.
• 48:20
  Speaker 1: And I think that gave me a level of confidence,
• 48:23
  Speaker 1: you know, when I had to go out in the
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: world and tackle things that you know, I knew I
• 48:29
  Speaker 1: I could, I could hold my own um, and sometimes
• 48:33
  Speaker 1: we underestimate that. And I think it's important for you know,
• 48:38
  Speaker 1: parents out there, especially when you're wondering how do you
• 48:40
  Speaker 1: raig strong girls? They need to have strong men in
• 48:43
  Speaker 1: their lives. I love them and take care of them
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: and nurture them. You know. I think about the number
• 48:48
  Speaker 1: of girls who grow up and suffer from abuse, whether
• 48:51
  Speaker 1: it's physical or emotional. They'd suffer at the hands, you know,
• 48:55
  Speaker 1: and that and that causes a ding in in the
• 48:58
  Speaker 1: psyche of a woman. Uh, that can really mess us up. Um,
• 49:04
  Speaker 1: So they've got to be protected, uh growing up. And
• 49:08
  Speaker 1: I had that. Yeah, let me ask you one other question,
• 49:11
  Speaker 1: because I know you're busy. I know you're pushing everything.
• 49:14
  Speaker 1: How did you come up with the title becoming? You know,
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: it just it just appeared, you know. We you know,
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: I was sitting down with my my, uh, the team
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: of folks that I would bounce stuff off us, and
• 49:30
  Speaker 1: we were like, we got to come up with a
• 49:32
  Speaker 1: title for this book. You know, we played around. I
• 49:34
  Speaker 1: thought I was starting to do it like a blooper
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: reel of titles, but I can't. We never wrote them down. Um.
• 49:40
  Speaker 1: And one of the folks said, what about the coming?
• 49:44
  Speaker 1: And immediately I just like, that's it, because that's what
• 49:47
  Speaker 1: the story is. It's you know, it becoming is it's
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: it's constantly evolving. You know. That's what my you know
• 49:59
  Speaker 1: what I'm trying to sort of explain in the title
• 50:02
  Speaker 1: that we we never reach a place where we just
• 50:05
  Speaker 1: are and that's it, you know. I start the book
• 50:08
  Speaker 1: off where, you know, when I'm little, I say one
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: of the questions I hate the most is what are
• 50:12
  Speaker 1: you going to be when you grow up? You know,
• 50:14
  Speaker 1: it's the dumbest question you can have. Ask a kid this.
• 50:17
  Speaker 1: You grow up and become something and that's the end,
• 50:20
  Speaker 1: you know, it's it's it's not finite. Life is a continuum,
• 50:24
  Speaker 1: you know. And I find that I'm evolving now. I
• 50:27
  Speaker 1: haven't become all that I'm going to be. I've got
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: a whole another chapter or two left. Um And and
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: how sad would it be if there wasn't more left? Um?
• 50:39
  Speaker 1: So we are all in the process of becoming. Um.
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: So that's that's where it can It just all seemed
• 50:45
  Speaker 1: to fall into place now. I think that's absolutely it.
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: I feel the same way, I've watched this video of
• 50:52
  Speaker 1: you about this upcoming book. I watched this ten minute video.
• 50:57
  Speaker 1: I was so moved by it. I think Becoming is
• 50:59
  Speaker 1: the perfect name for the book. I think it's gonna
• 51:02
  Speaker 1: inspire so many people. And what what I want people
• 51:06
  Speaker 1: to know is that this book is available to date.
• 51:09
  Speaker 1: Uh it's in both print at every bookstore that sells books,
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: and it's in digital formats, so Kendall, Amazon, however you
• 51:18
  Speaker 1: do it. You download the book on iTunes, it don't matter.
• 51:21
  Speaker 1: You can go get it. And it's oh, I tried that,
• 51:28
  Speaker 1: you know. Boy, you know they stopped me after forty minutes, Michelle,
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: they stopped me after fortament. That's a son, So you
• 51:35
  Speaker 1: can't sound like that. I wasn't talking proper enough. They
• 51:43
  Speaker 1: had to cut off mine. What is that? Yeah? Yeah,
• 51:48
  Speaker 1: look a here don't sound good. Yeah, look a here

• 52:37
  Speaker 1: I'm becoming. I'm trying to get myself together as man.

• 52:47
  Speaker 1: having a real allergic reactions and I didn't know it,
• 52:51
  Speaker 1: and I discovered it about I think it's maybe twenty
• 52:54

  Speaker 1: want to hear from us up. Hold on tight. Here
• 54:35
  Speaker 1: it is Strawberry letter, Thank you nephew, subject my wife
• 54:39
  Speaker 1: and kids. Dear Steven Shirley, this is probably the hardest
• 54:43
  Speaker 1: decision I've ever had to make. I have two teenage
• 54:46
  Speaker 1: children and their mother and I separated uh ten years ago,
• 54:51
  Speaker 1: but I have maintained a solid co parenting relationship. Five
• 54:55
  Speaker 1: years ago, I got remarried and my new wife seemed
• 54:58
  Speaker 1: to accept my children and played a decent role as
• 55:01
  Speaker 1: a step mom. That didn't last long, and she eventually
• 55:04
  Speaker 1: started treating them poorly. My teenagers became increasingly uncomfortable when
• 55:09
  Speaker 1: they came over for the weekend. Over time, things have
• 55:12
  Speaker 1: gotten worse, and my children started making excuses not to
• 55:16
  Speaker 1: come over. My mother in law has come to live
• 55:19
  Speaker 1: with us temporarily, and she has added fuel to the
• 55:22
  Speaker 1: fire by saying that my children are getting older and
• 55:25
  Speaker 1: don't need to come over as often as they used to,
• 55:28
  Speaker 1: and since my mother in law is there, my wife
• 55:30
  Speaker 1: says there's no room for the kids on the weekends.
• 55:33
  Speaker 1: I've told my wife that her mother is not going
• 55:35
  Speaker 1: to live with us permanently, but my children will forever
• 55:38
  Speaker 1: be a part of our lives. My wife and my
• 55:41
  Speaker 1: mother in law are depriving me of quality time with
• 55:43
  Speaker 1: my children. I told her that our home will always
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: be open to my children, whether she likes it or not.
• 55:50
  Speaker 1: I'm tired of arguing about it, so I've decided it's
• 55:53
  Speaker 1: time for me to go because my sole responsibility in
• 55:56
  Speaker 1: life is to my children. No matter how much I
• 55:59
  Speaker 1: love my life, I would never put her before my children.
• 56:03
  Speaker 1: I have told her that I want a divorce because
• 56:06
  Speaker 1: I will not live without my children. My wife does
• 56:08
  Speaker 1: not seem to care how this affects me, So I
• 56:11
  Speaker 1: need to know. Am I wrong for deciding to leave
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: this woman? How would you handle this situation? Please help?
• 56:18
  Speaker 1: Wow my wife and kids? Uh aptly titled, I would say,
• 56:23
  Speaker 1: but um, yeah, your wife is the issue here because
• 56:28
  Speaker 1: she wants to separate you and your children. Now, as
• 56:32
  Speaker 1: far as putting your kids first and all of that,
• 56:35
  Speaker 1: you know, if you want to get biblical, it says, um,
• 56:38
  Speaker 1: you know, leaving when you get married, leaving cleave. But
• 56:41
  Speaker 1: your kids were there before your wife, so you know
• 56:45
  Speaker 1: this is a problem because um, you're letting your wife dictate, um,
• 56:50
  Speaker 1: how you should what kind of relationship you should you
• 56:52
  Speaker 1: have with your kids? And uh, the kind of relationship
• 56:56
  Speaker 1: that you have with them? Is wrong because they're constantly
• 56:59
  Speaker 1: getting out of your life. I'm glad you took a stand.
• 57:03
  Speaker 1: I'm glad you stepped up and stood up to your wife.
• 57:06
  Speaker 1: And uh, you know, I don't necessarily know if divorce
• 57:09
  Speaker 1: is the way to go in this situation, but you
• 57:12
  Speaker 1: guys definitely definitely need to work on this marriage here.
• 57:18
  Speaker 1: I mean, you know, I hate this because it's breaking
• 57:22
  Speaker 1: up a family, and not just one family, but two families,
• 57:25
  Speaker 1: and your mother in law is there and she's adding
• 57:27
  Speaker 1: fuel to the fire. You guys really need to to
• 57:31
  Speaker 1: talk about this situation. I don't know if you have already,
• 57:35
  Speaker 1: but you really need to talk because your your kids
• 57:37
  Speaker 1: are the ones that are losing out of precious time,
• 57:40
  Speaker 1: like you say, with their father, and they need that
• 57:43
  Speaker 1: no matter how old they are, you'll always be their father. Um.
• 57:47
  Speaker 1: I think divorce is taking it too far right now
• 57:50
  Speaker 1: before you guys sit down and talk about it, though, Steve, Well,
• 57:56
  Speaker 1: I think they've had lots of talks. Mm hmm. The
• 58:00
  Speaker 1: thing has gotten worse over time, things have gotten worse,
• 58:03
  Speaker 1: and your children started making excuses not to come over
• 58:07
  Speaker 1: because kids get older, they get smarter. She mistreat us,
• 58:11
  Speaker 1: She don't want us over there, so they didn't started
• 58:15
  Speaker 1: making excuses. Now my mother in law, your mother in
• 58:18
  Speaker 1: law has come to live with us temporarily, and she
• 58:21
  Speaker 1: didn't add a few to the fire by saying that
• 58:23
  Speaker 1: my children are getting older and don't need to come
• 58:26
  Speaker 1: over as often as they used to. Now, see your
• 58:28
  Speaker 1: asses the one that's too old, See the mother in law,
• 58:32
  Speaker 1: she's the one that got older and don't need to
• 58:34
  Speaker 1: be there. See, that's the one that that that's see
• 58:38
  Speaker 1: that that my mother in law has come to live
• 58:40
  Speaker 1: with us temper and she's added by saying that my
• 58:43
  Speaker 1: children are getting older and don't need to come over
• 58:46
  Speaker 1: as often as they used to. She the one don't
• 58:48
  Speaker 1: need to be over there. All the mother in law don't.
• 58:52
  Speaker 1: So I found that disturbing. Then your wife says there's
• 58:57
  Speaker 1: no room for the kids on the weekend because her
• 59:01
  Speaker 1: mama there. Wait, hold on, hold on, I can't see
• 59:04
  Speaker 1: my kids because your mama here. Your wife and mother
• 59:09
  Speaker 1: in law depriving your quality time with your children. And
• 59:14
  Speaker 1: then you told her that your home always got to
• 59:16
  Speaker 1: be open to the kids. See, I'm with this guy
• 59:19
  Speaker 1: right here. I'm tired of arguing about it. So I've
• 59:22
  Speaker 1: decided it's time for me to go see Sherley. I
• 59:25
  Speaker 1: think they've discussed this many times, and the discussions to
• 59:29
  Speaker 1: turn into argument. Why I don't want him over here?
• 59:32
  Speaker 1: The man want to see his kids, she don't want
• 59:34
  Speaker 1: him over here. Now, what type of woman listen to
• 59:39
  Speaker 1: what I'm about to say to your care What type
• 59:42
  Speaker 1: of woman stop some man from being with his kids?
• 59:46
  Speaker 1: You want me tell you what type evil? A lot
• 59:49
  Speaker 1: of There are a lot, Sully. You would be stunned
• 59:56
  Speaker 1: how many women out there are making it hard for
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 1: a man to have relationship with his children because she
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 1: feels as she don't want to be the attachment to
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 1: the ex wife or the woman. She don't want them
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 1: kids in here interfering what they got going. Maybe she
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 1: don't want them around their kids. It is a lot
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 1: of women who do this, and it is sad because man,
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 1: when a man wants to take care of his children,
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 1: there's nothing worse than you being his wife stopping him
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 1: from doing that. Not even your mammy that came over
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 1: there talking about some damn mom in law exactly who
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 1: I'm talking about, laying up in here eating crackling and
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 1: corn bread and some damn buttermilk, talking about. It's just two.
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 1: There's no room for these kids. They too old to
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 1: come over here. They don't need to come over, and
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 1: often they used to. They're getting older. Your ask the
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 1: one that's old. But what chill? I'm just saying, how
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 1: old you know? You never get too old to go
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 1: see your parents? What is that? However old they are,
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 1: what difference do you meant? Now? They can't come over
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 1: no more? Put the mom in law over there now.
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 1: The man said he didn't talked about her. He tired
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 1: arguing about it. He figures time for him to go.
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 1: It's a divorce. Now, he says, something that you touched
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 1: on it will get into I would never put her
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 1: in front of my kids. All right, Steve, let's get
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 1: a problem. Let's take a break here. We'll be back
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 1: at twenty three after the hour with part two of
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 1: your response to my wife and kids. Right after this
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 1: you're listening to show, Steve, let's recap today's letter. My dude, Uh,
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 1: wife don't want the kids over their no mo and
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 1: then mom and Laude moved in. Okay, here we go.
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 1: Now this man can't have relationship it with his kids
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 1: because of his mother in law. Irma over there. Her
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 1: name is Irma, That's what the name I picked. I
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 1: told my wife that her mama not gonna be living
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 1: with us permanently or my children would ever be in
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 1: our lives forever. My wife and mother in law depriving
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 1: me of quality time with my children. And I told
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 1: our home will always be over to my children, whether
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 1: she likes it or not. And I'm tired of arguing
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 1: about it. So I didn't decide it it's time for
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 1: me to go because my sole responsibility and life is
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 1: to my children. No matter how much I love my wife,
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 1: we really got more responsibilities than our children. The sad
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 1: part is your mother in law and wife don't want
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 1: you to have relationship with your kids. And that's so sad.
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 1: That is so sad, and I would never put her
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 1: before my children. Well, because she's making you choose, and
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 1: I've told her I want a divorce because I will
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 1: not live without my children. And now your wife don't
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 1: seem to care how this affects me. Well, she loved
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 1: her mama. Let her live with her mama, her mamma. There,
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 1: live with your mama. You got who you want, So
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 1: I need to know. Am I wrong for deciding to
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 1: lead this woman, I buy you need no counseling. You're
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 1: married to her eva half far and her mama evil
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 1: and she got it from my mama cause her mama
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 1: ain't even girl. You need to let this man have
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 1: the life of these kids now, she hadn't fuel to
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 1: the fire. Leave both for me. Man, Go on where
• 1:03:45

• 1:03:49
  Speaker 1: like you don't. You don't, you don't left your kids.

  Speaker 1: It's a dog on shame, man. But I promise you
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 1: you'll be able to find a woman to be accepting
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 1: that you ain't them kids. But he's gonna be a
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 1: little hesitant, don't you think now, Steve, because she was

• 1:08:51
  Speaker 1: be back right after this. You're listening to Steve Harvey
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 1: Morning Show. A day after footage emerged of US Senator
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 1: Cindy Hyde Smith, a Republican out of Mississippi, making laughing
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 1: comments about going to a public hanging. Her African American
• 1:09:08
  Speaker 1: Democratic opponent, Mike sp responded on Monday, calling the statement
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 1: awful and tone death all right. Uh. In a video
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 1: of a two below Mississippi campaign stop released on Sunday, UH,
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 1: Cindy Hyde Smith said she'd attend even a public hanging
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 1: if invited by the cattle rancher with whom she met
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 1: that day. She said, I'd be on the front row.
• 1:09:31
  Speaker 1: She was laughing when she said that. The video quickly
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 1: went viral. Uh. Cindy Hyde Smith faces a runoff election
• 1:09:38
  Speaker 1: against Mike sp on sp on November. You know what,
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 1: it's a dog on Shane that this country's is in
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 1: in in this type of thing. It's it's it's like
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 1: we're taking steps back, and we're taking steps back because
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 1: of the red rick that's coming from the White House. See,
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 1: you get a chance to grow if you can start
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 1: squashing some things silently. But once the silence has taken
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 1: away and you can publicly say what you wanna say
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 1: with no repercussions, then it sends another message to those
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 1: behind you, younger people. Hey, it's back to business as usual.
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 1: That's why I've always hated the phrase, make America great
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 1: again because you want to go back to when because
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 1: right now we keep going back to what we thought
• 1:10:33
  Speaker 1: was a day gone by. And now this woman, Cindy Smith,
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 1: Cindy Hide Smith, that's running against this African American man
• 1:10:43
  Speaker 1: in Mississippi. For her to make such an insensitive remark,
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 1: I mean totally instant. What happens though, all public have
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 1: been and we know why. So now for you to
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 1: say this that you would follow this man if he
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 1: had a public hanging, you'd be sitting on the front
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 1: row of it. Who does that? Why would we wanted
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 1: elected official? That's okay with the public hanging, you, lady,
• 1:11:19
  Speaker 1: I think because your president has gotten away with this,
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 1: that is okay for you. But we're gonna put a
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 1: stop to some of this because the power of the
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 1: vote is real. This runoff in Mississippi. We're gonna get
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 1: serious about this candidate. We're gonna show up some numbers
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 1: because I got news for you. There are non African
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 1: Americans who don't agree with this type of rhetoric. That's right,
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 1: that's they are. It's not a broad sweeping statement about
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 1: how non African Americans feel. No, it's you making asinine
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 1: remarks because you think it's okay now because you can
• 1:11:57
  Speaker 1: take your gloves off and do the these jokes. Well,
• 1:12:02
  Speaker 1: I'm telling you, man, it's not okay and you shouldn't
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 1: be allowed. And we can and we can do something
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 1: about this. Uh, Cindy Hyde Smith in Mississippi, we could

  Speaker 1: That's very kind of you. Can you share a little
• 1:19:55
  Speaker 1: bit about the role of your family and and and
• 1:19:58
  Speaker 1: how it played in how your life And yeah, I
• 1:20:01
  Speaker 1: mean I say the book is of the story of
• 1:20:04
  Speaker 1: an ordinary life, uh, lived in an extraordinary way. Um,
• 1:20:09
  Speaker 1: because how I grew up, as you know, is how
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 1: millions of black folks grew up. You know, we grew
• 1:20:15
  Speaker 1: up in a community you know where we lived with
• 1:20:18
  Speaker 1: our family, and our family was everybody was and uncles
• 1:20:21
  Speaker 1: and grandparents and you know there was bid with and
• 1:20:25
  Speaker 1: jazz and barbecue and you know love, um. And uh,
• 1:20:32
  Speaker 1: that's what fueled us in expectation. You know, even though
• 1:20:37
  Speaker 1: my parents didn't go to college, my grandparents didn't go
• 1:20:40
  Speaker 1: to college. They they held up a high bar for
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 1: us as as as as people. Um. And you know,
• 1:20:48
  Speaker 1: we always sell an obligation to live up to that.
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 1: I mean to see my father who was disabled from
• 1:20:53
  Speaker 1: the time I could remember him, you know, and seeing
• 1:20:56
  Speaker 1: him getting up and going to work every day without complaint.
• 1:20:59
  Speaker 1: I've talked out this throughout my my time and politics.
• 1:21:03
  Speaker 1: You know, it's hard to be half baked when you
• 1:21:07
  Speaker 1: are raised in the house by a man like that,
• 1:21:10
  Speaker 1: you know. Um. And every day, Steve, I live to
• 1:21:14
  Speaker 1: make my family, proud, in my community, proud. Um. It's
• 1:21:19
  Speaker 1: just important for us to tell our stories because I
• 1:21:21
  Speaker 1: think people think we don't exist, you know, They've got
• 1:21:25
  Speaker 1: what one image of what it means to be black.
• 1:21:28
  Speaker 1: They don't know that we are so complex, and we
• 1:21:31
  Speaker 1: are so faithful, and that we are so uh linked
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 1: to our family, um, you know. And and that's why
• 1:21:38
  Speaker 1: I'm proud to tell my story, because I want people
• 1:21:41
  Speaker 1: to know all of who I am so that they're
• 1:21:44
  Speaker 1: not mistaken at all. And this book, you know, I
• 1:21:48
  Speaker 1: try to make it a story so that it's not
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 1: just a chronology of things, but it's a story of
• 1:21:54
  Speaker 1: this little girl, Michelle Robinson, who grew up on the
• 1:21:57
  Speaker 1: South Side with a big brother, and she got into
• 1:21:59
  Speaker 1: the fights, and she had some some challenges, and she
• 1:22:03
  Speaker 1: went to public school and she got hit in the
• 1:22:05
  Speaker 1: mouth by a bully and you know, shot, you know,
• 1:22:08
  Speaker 1: And and it's a it's a set of stories that
• 1:22:11
  Speaker 1: I hope take people along the journey because I get
• 1:22:13
  Speaker 1: that question all the time. It's like, how did a
• 1:22:15
  Speaker 1: girl from the South side of Chicago wind up the
• 1:22:18
  Speaker 1: first lady of the United States? And this is the
• 1:22:22
  Speaker 1: answer to that, at least is that I can see it.
• 1:22:25
  Speaker 1: The book is becoming. It's available today in both printing
• 1:22:28
  Speaker 1: digital formats. It's published in twenty four languages. Michelle Obama,
• 1:22:32

• 1:31:47
  Speaker 1: it for quite some time and it hasn't gotten here.
• 1:31:53
  Speaker 1: And uh, he knows exactly what I need. So as
• 1:31:58
  Speaker 1: I'm saying this to you, I want you all to
• 1:32:01
  Speaker 1: imagine yourself and plug in your need. So I'm talking
• 1:32:07
  Speaker 1: to God right and I'm asking God for something that
• 1:32:10
  Speaker 1: I need, and I know I need it because it
• 1:32:13
  Speaker 1: would it would make some things go so much better,
• 1:32:16
  Speaker 1: so much smoother, so much easier. Just overall, it would
• 1:32:21
  Speaker 1: just help in so many areas. So I've been praying
• 1:32:24
  Speaker 1: about it and it hasn't gotten here yet. And so
• 1:32:30
  Speaker 1: my oldest sister texts me the other day and I
• 1:32:33
  Speaker 1: didn't get back to him, and so just last night
• 1:32:36
  Speaker 1: she texted me again and just said, hey, could you
• 1:32:39
  Speaker 1: answer my text? I hope things are well with you,
• 1:32:44
  Speaker 1: Love Mona. And so I text her back and I
• 1:32:48
  Speaker 1: told everything is fine. I've just been working so much.
• 1:32:50
  Speaker 1: I said, sometimes I don't get to answer your text
• 1:32:54
  Speaker 1: when you send it to me right away because I'll
• 1:32:56
  Speaker 1: be on the set of something, I'll be doing something.
• 1:32:58
  Speaker 1: I said, but I get him, an I appreciate them.
• 1:33:02
  Speaker 1: And then I told my oldest sister I asked her
• 1:33:05
  Speaker 1: to please pray for me. I said, I prayed for
• 1:33:09
  Speaker 1: a breakthrough from me, something I've been asking God for,
• 1:33:15
  Speaker 1: so I can just you know, take, you know, relax
• 1:33:18
  Speaker 1: a little bit about this situation. And I went on
• 1:33:22
  Speaker 1: to tell my sister that's hard being successful and stuff
• 1:33:25
  Speaker 1: like that. And I said, but we're good. I'm just
• 1:33:29
  Speaker 1: working real hard. I told I love you, and then
• 1:33:33
  Speaker 1: I said, let me know if you need something. She
• 1:33:37
  Speaker 1: text me back the simplest thing. I remember. Now, I've
• 1:33:42
  Speaker 1: told you that I was asking God for something that
• 1:33:45
  Speaker 1: I needed and I have been waiting for it, and
• 1:33:49
  Speaker 1: I and I and I, and I'm almost out of patience,
• 1:33:52
  Speaker 1: to be honest with you. I just thinking it's taken
• 1:33:55
  Speaker 1: a while, right, And I'm pretty sure you could feel
• 1:33:58
  Speaker 1: that way too. Sometimes ask Gold for something and you
• 1:34:02
  Speaker 1: you're living in the expectation and you get man, let's
• 1:34:04
  Speaker 1: taking so long, and you're getting a little impatient. I
• 1:34:08
  Speaker 1: think everything that's happened to every person. My sensters simply
• 1:34:11
  Speaker 1: sent this text backs to me. She said, just take
• 1:34:15
  Speaker 1: one day at a time. The Lord knows what he's doing.
• 1:34:22
  Speaker 1: I'm praying for you. That was her message. Now, my
• 1:34:25
  Speaker 1: sisters eighty two years old, she told her brother, who
• 1:34:32
  Speaker 1: is like, you know, the family guy that they can
• 1:34:36
  Speaker 1: all come to when they need something. But she simplified
• 1:34:40
  Speaker 1: it for me so easy. She said, just take one
• 1:34:43
  Speaker 1: a day at a time. The Lord knows what he's doing.
• 1:34:47
  Speaker 1: And do you know how much better. That made me
• 1:34:49
  Speaker 1: feel I simply back and said I texted back. I said, Okay,
• 1:34:53
  Speaker 1: I will, because you know this thing that I've been
• 1:34:56
  Speaker 1: asking God for that I so desperately feel like I need,
• 1:35:00
  Speaker 1: and I keep expecting it to happen, but I'm starting
• 1:35:04
  Speaker 1: to lose patience about it. My sister says something so simple,
• 1:35:11
  Speaker 1: if you just take one day at a time, the
• 1:35:14
  Speaker 1: Lord knows what he's doing, and if I look at it.
• 1:35:19
  Speaker 1: In her simple way of talking to her brother, she
• 1:35:22
  Speaker 1: knows me very well. Her simple way of talking to
• 1:35:26
  Speaker 1: me was letting me know that if you just keep
• 1:35:30
  Speaker 1: waking up and keep doing what you're doing, God got
• 1:35:34
  Speaker 1: all this under control. He know what he's doing. And
• 1:35:39
  Speaker 1: you know what he always has. He's always known what
• 1:35:44
  Speaker 1: he's doing. Always. He ain't never not known what he
• 1:35:50
  Speaker 1: was doing. Even when I thought I wanted it to
• 1:35:52
  Speaker 1: go another way, and he worked it out a different way.
• 1:35:56
  Speaker 1: It was for the best, and so I just had
• 1:35:59
  Speaker 1: to grab myself off and go, Okay, I will. And
• 1:36:02
  Speaker 1: it made me feel better because I said, Okay, man,
• 1:36:06
  Speaker 1: I'm actually okay. I do actually keep waking up. I
• 1:36:12
  Speaker 1: do keep somehow surviving it all. I'm not just surviving.
• 1:36:18
  Speaker 1: I'm actually thriving. I'm going through it, but I'm getting
• 1:36:23
  Speaker 1: through it. It's taking a while, but it's in the process.
• 1:36:29
  Speaker 1: And God does know what he's doing. So that settled
• 1:36:35
  Speaker 1: it for me. So I'm saying to you, if that's
• 1:36:40
  Speaker 1: something you've been praying about, something that you need, and
• 1:36:43
  Speaker 1: you're living your life in the expectation because you know
• 1:36:46
  Speaker 1: he's gonna deliver it for you, but you haven't got
• 1:36:48
  Speaker 1: a little bit impatient with it like I have, just
• 1:36:52
  Speaker 1: taking a day at a time. God knows exactly what
• 1:36:56
  Speaker 1: he's doing. He's working on something on your behalf that
• 1:37:00
  Speaker 1: you don't even know about, and when you give it
• 1:37:02
  Speaker 1: to you, it's gonna fix it all, probably better than
• 1:37:05
  Speaker 1: you could have ever imagined. Those are my closing remarks.
• 1:37:09
  Speaker 1: Just something to think about. Yeah, wow, that puts things
• 1:37:19
  Speaker 1: in perspective. Yeah, I'm stopped playing in the day. M hmm. Yeah.
