Speaker 1 (00:00):
See if here we are on your birthday, our last

(00:02):
break of the day. You came in to work on
your birthday today, you made sixty eight.

Speaker 2 (00:06):
I haven't done that in a while. I have worked
on my birthday today.

Speaker 1 (00:09):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, you knowing, you know what I want
to say.

Speaker 2 (00:14):
Man, First of all, let me just give thanks and
honor to God Almighty for just giving me a life
of longevity and a life and a life of health.
I'm healthy, man, and I thank God for that. I
think we all should be grateful for our health, whatever

(00:35):
measure of health we have. Some of us is going
through some things, but the key is through it, going
through it, gotten past it. And so I just want
to thank God Almighty for a life of longevity and
of good health. I hope I live a long life.
I hope to live a lot longer. That's one of
my prayers. I want to live a long time. I

(00:58):
got some things I want to see, you know. I
want to see all my sons' children. I want to
see I want to live long enough to see my
grandkids have a kid. You know. I'd love to be
around to see that, you know. I want to live
long enough to see what little Bj gonna turn into

(01:18):
see what he end up doing with his life. Is
he gonna ball, is he gonna coach, if he's gonna
be in computers, if he's gonna build something. I just
want to see it all, man. I wanna, I wanna.
I want to live an impactful life. I want to
change the way African Americans view Africa. I want to
change the way Africa view are African Americans. I want

(01:40):
to change the way black people travel. I want to
change the way Black people view themselves. I want to
be a contributor to the uplifting edification of black people.
I'm not gonna be a part of the demise of
black people. I'm not gonna be a part of the
culture of criticizing a person all the time. I want

(02:02):
God to always keep it in my heart that I
be a motivational person, a positive person that tries to
bring people up instead of tearing people down. I wish
I could change that culture that we live in now,
but I don't know if I'm capable of doing that.
But I know I'm capable of doing my share, and
I invite everybody else to do the same. Be in

(02:24):
the uplift upkick business don't be in the tear down business.
You can do that now. I know it seems to
be popular nowadays for clicks and likes for people to
be in the negative business, but you don't have to
be a part of that. You know there's a price
for that, there's a penalty you have to pay. The
Bible says do unto others as you would have them

(02:45):
do unto you. So if you're in the hate business,
do you understand that God's laws are real, that you
are not free to escape his laws, the laws of
the universe, the thing that God put into play, do
unto others as you would have them do unto you.
Do you understand that that's in play that? Do you

(03:08):
understand that we have an obligation to love one another,
to treat each other right. Do you know that we
are under a mandate to be kind to one another,
to do something for the less fortunate. Do you understand
that we have that placed upon us. That you can
ignore it if you want to, but that don't stop
the placement. Do you understand that the law of attraction

(03:31):
is real, that it is what it is, that what
you put out is what you're going to get back.
Do you know that you operate just like a remote
control on a TV. Do you know if you point
your remote control at your TV this is where it
came from, and you press the own button, you look
at your TV with the expectation of one thing for
that TV to come on. Do you know if HB

(03:54):
or is channel four point fifty, if you press four
fifty and select and point it at your TV, do
you know you act staying there with one expectation for
HBO to come on your TV? Do you know what
appears on your TV? HBO? Do you know where they
got that concept from? They got that concept from God,
because God said a man is as he thinketh, and

(04:15):
if he can put that concept in a remote control.
The most powerful remote control you have is your brain.
Do you know that your brain has the power to
emit a signal and that signal has to be returned.
Do you understand that's how life works? So if your
mental remote control is emitting negative signals, do you know

(04:38):
what has to come back to you? Negativity? Some people
can't figure out what they life can't get on track.
It's because you keep rolling. Everybody else's to be off track.
Some people cannot figure out why they keep running on
a treadmill because you ain't pulling for nobody else. You
ain't helping nobody else. Sometimes, man, you can be and

(05:02):
you are your own worst enemy. Stop mistreating your brother,
Stop mistreating your sister. Get your life together. I thank
God that he gave me that understanding. You can talk
about me as much as you want. When you get
through talking about me, there's nothing you can do. I

(05:23):
heard somebody say I'm gonna destroy him. Do you know
what my response to that is, I'm not yours to destroy. See,
I know who I am, and I know whose I am.
I don't belong to nobody online. I don't belong to
nobody on the internet. I belong to my creator, the
person that created me. God created me, God made me.

(05:47):
God put this path I'm on in place for me.
God gave me my role, my destiny. God put me
on the mission, not you. And you think you can
stop what God got planning. In the words of my
boy Inky that be on Instagram all the time.

Speaker 1 (06:02):
You ain't that nice, man.

Speaker 2 (06:04):
You really ain't that nice that you think you can
stop what God got planned. Inky said it best. You
ain't that nice. What God is I got all mine
based on him. I invite y'all to do the same. Man,
get yourself a relationship with God and have the best
twenty twenty five you can have, because that's my plan.
Appreciate it man. Happy birthday to me. Thank y'all for everybody.
