Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, guys, here we are our last break of
the day. Wow, it's been a fun day. We've had
a good time today. Yep. Day And what did we learn?

Speaker 2 (00:10):
What did we learn?

Speaker 1 (00:12):
We spent twelve hundred on the lottery in one ninety
pay off.

Speaker 2 (00:18):
Tonight gone, but let's go big Tommy going back, going
right back.

Speaker 1 (00:24):
Junior's back, Yep, welcome.

Speaker 2 (00:28):
Welcome back, and the teams have remained. Did you come around? Well?

Speaker 1 (00:35):
That was one of your favorites, wasn't it. I just
love welling by Carter Junior? Were you around when Welcome back?

Speaker 2 (00:43):
Everything? He was in panthers, I was in the pin
watching it. Nobody ain't nobody finished. Don't quit asking him questions.
All right, Steve, come on, take us out, you know, uh, surely.
And I were talking a minute ago as I was

(01:05):
thinking about my clothes, remarks, what I might say, and
it the topic came up of regrets. Do I have
any regrets? And you know, of course everybody, everybody's had
something happened to them, and you don't lie. Everybody has

(01:26):
had something happened to them that they wish didn't happen.
That's I don't know a person that's you know people
giving I have no regrets, Well, yeah, that's I mean,
it's easy to say that once it's over, that you
have no regrets. But I've been in so many regretful
situations I can't even explain it. And so yes, of

(01:51):
course there are things I wished had never happened to me.
But on the other side of all of those regrets
is the reason why it happened. And that's the key
that you have to get to. Because if you wallow
in regret, if you sit there and mimic it, rerun it,

(02:16):
relive it, remain in the condition that it caused, what
good is that to you? What good is that? Regret
serves no purpose? Regret is like guilt. It's two of
the most useless emotions that we have because guilt serves
no purpose for anybody except the person that's applying it.

(02:40):
Guilt is crazy, man. Have you ever noticed that every
time you feel guilty is usually a person behind it
that's making you feel guilty. Have you ever noticed that
you don't just wake up and feel guilty? Man? I
got a great life. Man, it's crazy. I shouldn't be
living this good? Why? Why? Because I can assure you

(03:03):
somebody has said something to you to make you feel
that way. Regret, y'all, this is the way I handled regret.
Regret has been a part of my foundation. The things
that happened to me that I wished had not happened
to me, I made them a part of my foundation.

(03:27):
I can stand on all my regrets right now, and
I do. I stand on all of them. I realized
the mistakes I made, I owned up to them. I
learned the valuable lesson that I needed to learn. But
I also came away with the blessing that it created.
So regret has become one of the stabilizing forces of

(03:50):
my foundation. Also, anything I ever regretted has really brightened
my future because guess what, I bet I do that again.
Oh my goodness, how many times have you had a
regretful moment that taught you a valuable lesson? See that's
what they for, y'all. Those regrettable moments. They build character.

(04:16):
They help shape your future. See, once you you know
you know what, man, you know what kind of like
you know. The older you get and you're talking to
a young person, you're trying to give a young person
some advice, and then when they ask you for the
advice and you start telling them and then they gonna
say no, but I was gonna do it like this
and no, and you say, I stop them all the time,

(04:37):
I said, listen, listen, listen, man, I don't seen this
movie before. It ain't gonna end well. I was the
star in that scene, that scene you just described. I
was the star in that scene you just described. And
I'm gonna tell you right now, it's not gonna end well. Oh,

(04:59):
but they keep on talking about well, I was gonna
do it this way and I don't go that way.
Listen to me, man. You can walk around the Marlberry
Bush any kind of way you want to. You can skip,
you can crawl, you can belly, you can army crawl,
you can get up in one leg, hop it. You
can walk backwards around the Marlberry Bush. But when you

(05:20):
go round to Marlberry Bush and you come back, this
is what's gonna happen. And see, that's the problem. Sometimes
when you're trying to forewarn a person about something that
you live through as regret, sometimes you just gotta let
them go. That's where sayings come on, you know, That's
where sayings come from. Like you just don't believe fat
meat greasy. Let me eat some. Go ahead, but listen

(05:44):
to me. Regret has taught me so much, and I'm
grateful for every regretful moment I've had. But if you
have some regretful moments, quit wallowing in it. Stand on it.
Yeah I did it. Yeah that was me, my bad,
my mistake. I'm sorry. I've apologized. I've asked God for forgiveness.

(06:05):
I've asked you for forgiveness. Now the fact that you
won't forgive me, that's on you. God is in the
forgiven business. I take all the regrets, put it on
my foundation, and it helps shape my future. So you
know what, Hope I don't have too many more regrets,
but if I do, I packed that away as a

(06:27):
lesson well learned. Also, those are my closing remarks. Hey,
y'all listen to this important fact. Please talk to God.
He would absolutely love to hear from He loves you.
Don't forget you. Y'all have a great day today.
