Speaker 3 (00:18):
You're getting a burger. We established that, right, we are.

Speaker 2 (00:33):
Of pickle, and a strawberry cake.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
Strawberry cake. Told you about that earlier. I used to
like strawberry shakes too, but.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
I probably you eat all that. You ain't gonna make
it too.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
But I can't. I can't do it now. Can't do
it now, not at this big age.
Speaker 3 (00:49):
Can't do it.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
All Right, you guys have some questions, Steve, you're ready
to close this out?
Speaker 2 (00:55):
I stay ready.
Speaker 3 (00:56):
Okay, I got question, I got I got some from
friends that's going through it. So give me your opinion
on two relatives who have just completely fallen out. And
you know us as other us, as relatives looking at it,
watching it unfold, and we see what the problem is.
(01:17):
But you know, you don't want to pick a side.
You don't want to make it look like even though
you know what's right or what's wrong?
Speaker 1 (01:23):
What what?
Speaker 2 (01:23):
What?
Speaker 3 (01:24):
How do you approach it? Do you leave it alone
because it has nothing to do with you, or do
you try to at least fix two family members that
if this don't get fixed, it's not gonna ever get fixed.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
They gonna You know, I've often had to mediate several
family disputes and it's a cool thing to do. I
would get involved because you know something, Usually what happens
with these family disputes is the both of the parties
want to be heard at nobody listening, and you've got
to get everybody to hear what the other person is saying.
(01:56):
And that's and that's what you have to do. So
I would get involved to try to get through because
there's three sides to every story. Is your side, it's
day side, and it's the truth. You can only get
to the truth by hearing both sides. But when people argument,
have you ever argued with somebody where their whole intent
(02:16):
is to be right? That that's a frugal that's a
frugal argument. Man that's an argument when you're not gonna
win when a person's whole goal is to be white.
I have this young kid that I mentor, and he
messes up quite often, right, and I try to straighten
him out, And the whole time i'm straightening him out,
(02:36):
he telling me the why he did it. Okay, man,
I got why you did it. And then in the
why he did it, it's always why he felt like
he should have did it that way. Okay, cool, I
got that too, But do you understand the consequences of
your actions? What you did has caused this to happen. Yeah,
(02:57):
but I was right when I said this. You know what, man,
My father in law said something that I've always remembered.
He said, just because you can do something don't mean
you should. And do you know how many people may
do stuff because they had the right to do it,
but they shouldn't have did it. We live in a
country that's supposed to be freedom of speech. You're free
(03:18):
to say what you want to say, but should you
though all the time the answer is no, Well I
got the right to say what I want to say.
You do, but that don't mean you should. You have
to practice some form of discretion. So when I see
two people arguing and I'm listening to them. I saw
some people arguing on the family feud said one day
(03:39):
we were all sitting around and these two people were
having this argument, and I was sitting there listening, you know,
and I said, hey, y'all, can I say something here?
I said, I don't think you all are hearing each other.
What you said was this? Now, when they said that,
what did you hear? And the person says something completely
different from what they said, I said, now tell me
(03:59):
what you said. And then the lady said what she said.
And then I asked the other guy said, now, what
did you hear her say? This is what she said
to me. I said, that's not what she said. So
you gotta get people to listen to what the other
person is saying and try to develop some type of understanding,
because if you don't, it'll just go the wrong way.
(04:21):
So to answer your question, if it's family, I would
try to mediate it because sometimes you need an outside
set of eyes and ears to be able to see
and hear what each other is saying and present the
case that way. But now here's the problem. Though, we
all know somebody who I don't care what you say,
(04:41):
they gonna stay right over there. I know some people
like that. I don't care what you say to them,
they gonna stay over there. I don't know if it's
because they just stubborn. I don't know if because they
just hell bent on being right. And I think it's
a coming of both things. I have a family member
(05:03):
right now that creates a narrative to justify everything they do.
And they sit there with their partner and they both
unify in this narrative to justify their actions, and everybody
else can clearly see is wrong. But they done justified it. Well,
you can't win like that. And then Bishop Browner, I
(05:27):
tell you, man, that man says something. He said, be
careful of people who are victims in circumstances that they created.
And boy, that's a tough one right there. And so
I know a lot of those people who are victims
all in circumstance. I had a god tell me. He said,
(05:49):
you iced me out your life. I said, hold up,
young brother, do you not remember telling me that you
would never talk to me ever again without the presence
of an attorney? Do you remember saying that to me? Now,
you don't turn around and say I asked you all
my life. You told me you wouldn't talk to me
without the presence of an attorney. So you created this situation.
(06:11):
Now you're the victim man, miss me, so medi eight.
If you can but recognize who you're talking too quickly,
and if you're talking to a person that ain't gonna
train sway, they stubborn or they gonna justify all they means,
then you're wasting your time. Let it be Pray for
him and move on. Those are my closing remarks today.
(06:33):
If you didn't like those closing remarks, we will be
here willingly God's will tomorrow and you might like those.
Have a nice day, y'all talk to God today.
