Speaker 1 (00:00):
Ladies and gentlemen. Another day is upon us, another blessing,
another opportunity, another grand chance, another shot at it. Man,
God is good man, Thank you God for waking me
up this morning. Started me on my way, as in
the words of old people, enclosed in my right mind
safe a sign tucked under the wings of His goodness

(00:24):
and mercy. Wow, that's a good way. Start your day
like that, everybody. Steve Varvret, Marna Show, Shelon Strawberry calling
for real Mississippi, Monica Junior and the legend that is
Nephew tummy. Well with regret, with deep regret. Here I go, Jr.

(00:48):
What's on your mind today? You know what's on my mind?
I man, Do you ever get tired of being the
chosen one of them? Do you ever get that? Yeah? Hell, yesterday? Yeah,

(01:09):
That's all I have to ask you. Do you ever
get I'm good there? Yeah? See, man, listen to me.
I was listening to Roy Jones Junior, the great Fighter.
He was talking to this young fighter, and this young
fighter was talking about how hard it is and and

(01:29):
and he didn't want this. He Roy Jones Jr. I'm
paraphrasing it said, I know you didn't want this, but
this ain't for you to want. It was put on you.
You was chosen. This is your walk, but he put
this on your calls. You can handle it, so just
get to handle it. You don't get to set this down.
You don't get to not be who you are. You

(01:52):
don't get to have what you have, provide what you provide,
and and and and and and don't get all that
come with it. To whom much is given, much is required.
Now let me tell you something. You got to get
on with that process. You cannot take the crown off
and set it down. It's not removable. That's the cold

(02:14):
thing about being what you call the chosen one. And
it's hard because even if you try to take the
crown down, even if you just try to take some
time off, they find you. You got phones, they got technology,
they got our gisaw on your story. You over here,
Hey man, I need I have someone who needs something

(02:34):
from me every single day. And hit the crazy part.
I have someone who wants something from me every single day. Well,
I don't have no mo to give because I'm human.
But we are that one. You are that one in
your family, do you know? Look a lot of people

(02:55):
out here, the first one in their family to have
a position at the post office supervisor POPI, first person
to go to college, first person to hold a real job,
have a supervisor capacity, first person with a real job
title other than labor. It's some people out there that's
the first first person ever in your family, ever saved
some money, ever, buy a new house, ever, get married,

(03:17):
ever hold your family together. It's a lot of first
out there. And then guess what, since you're the only
one in that family, tag you it now. If you
don't want to be it, give all this stuff back,
all right, but you're it, all right, You don't get
to not be it. You're listening Hardy Morning Show
