Living a rich and purposeful life - EP 3

Send us a text

In this the final episode of three with Stephen Armytage, he discusses what it means to live a rich and purposeful life. Stephen explains that his goal in sharing this course, and his overall mission, is to leave the world in a better shape than he found it. He reveals the secret to achieving this is coming from a place of abundance and connection.

Stephen believes that living a rich and purposeful life means being the best husband, father, son, and community member possible, together with acknowledging the enrichment that this creates.

Stephen discusses the common misconception that people who have a good start in life don't struggle and are happy. He says that everyone starts somewhere, and we all have different starting places. He understands that some people don't believe they have the power, permission, or deserve to live this way. Stephen emphasises that improving yourself is possible, regardless of your starting point.

(01:06):
So welcome back, Stephen. I wasa little break was good. Yeah,
yeah. So the way I'm doingEpisode Three now. And

Stephen Armytage (01:16):
so I haven't I haven't gotten out a costume
change this time, no

Jeremy Melder (01:19):
costume change makeup, nothing made just a
glass of water. And we had a bitof a nice interlude and
connected to ourselves,connected to Earth, and paying
some respect to our Aboriginalelders past and present and
emerging. And showing somegratitude, which is really

(01:42):
important, isn't it?

Stephen Armytage (01:45):
Totally, if we can feel it. Yeah, it's really
important for me.

Jeremy Melder (01:51):
So Stephen, I want to ask you a question. So
you've now got living a rich andpurposeful life? What does that
mean to you?

Stephen Armytage (02:04):
Good question.
So for me my agenda is tosupport us as campers to leave
the world in a better shape thanwe arrived. And to do that, we
need to come from a place ofabundance. Camp from a place of
I would love rather than a placeI must or have to should do. And

(02:28):
so when I then decompose thatbecause I'm analytical, I went
so what does that state looklike? And that state, to, you
know, genericized it somewhat isto live a life that is rich, and
purposeful. And that is full ofenrichment. A thriving life. But

(02:53):
thriving is kind of like it's anoverused, I mean, I you know,
but but to thrive, in essence,to come from a place of
abundance and come from a placeof connection. So, and that's
really, once I, you know, foundout root cause of my, you know,

(03:15):
spectacular midlife crisis, Iwent towards the things that was
going to be supporting me tomake the most positive
contribution, because I have aninnate belief that a sustainable
future. A big element of that isthat it's a win win. Yeah. So
now if there's three people atthe table, you me and say,

(03:35):
Mother Nature, that we all canwin in that exchange? Yeah. And
I, you know, and I don't believethis notion of compromise, you
know, all relationships have tobe compromised. All of our laws
have to, you know, there's anelement of compromise. And, you
know, we have to kind of averagethings down so that, you know,

(03:58):
it's about statistics, I don'tactually think that, that that
actually supports us to, to getto a sustainable world. I think
it just, if we don't have Winwin, yeah, then we're all
getting something less than whatwe would love. It's true. So for
me, living a rich andsustainable living a rich and
purposeful life is about whenwhen I turn up as the best

(04:20):
husband as the best father, thebest made the best son, the best
community member that I possiblycan be. And I feel good about
that. I feel enriched by thatprocess. It's not about drawing
down my resources to do that. Ido that because that's why I
would love and that support tome to be a better man. That's

(04:40):
what it's about for me.

Jeremy Melder (04:45):
Thanks for answering that. Now, I also want
to ask you what are some of thecommon misconception about
living a rich and purposefullife?

Stephen Armytage (04:57):
Well, I mean, the conspiracy theory right for
There's, there's a lot of peoplein my orbit that go on, as if
they really feel like they don'thave the power to do that, or
the permission to do that. Orthey're not deserving of that.
It's for somebody else. Youknow, and I have friends dear

(05:17):
friends to me that kind ofaccused me that I'm, I have a
great life because of my parentsor because of my context or
because I'm white and male andbig and, you know, well educated
and I got a good start in lifeand all that kind of stuff. And
I, yes, I do, I have all that.
And my peer group that I've gotall that as well, some, you

(05:39):
know, it's a really variable,it's a really variable
situation, and lots of them aredesperately unhappy. And I look
at those guys, and I go, weactually started with a better
hamper than I did. So I, Iunderstand that I am privileged,
I recognize that. But thatdoesn't stop me from knowing
that to raise my vibration, toimprove my position to, to live

(06:04):
an abundant life and enrich lifeand to make a contribution.
There's a lot of work that Ineed to be done that needs to be
done.

Jeremy Melder (06:14):
And I got to say, you know, I'll pay homage to
that, because you do want toimprove yourself, it doesn't
matter where you started from,right? I think we all can, you
know, doesn't, you know, if youstarted below the water, and you
had no oxygen, and you had tocome up for oxygen, and then
start from where we all startedfrom somewhere. And if we want

(06:38):
to look at what we're aspiringfor, and go through some of
those speed bumps, because nodoubt, we'll all have speed
bumps, then we'll get there. Butyeah, we all start have
different starting places. So Ithink you've hit the nail on the
head, you know, so yes, so ifsomeone will compare all of us
will all be compared, you know,I compare, you know, and then we

(07:00):
have, look, I've done that aswell. Probably done that with
you, as well. You know, I usedto have a good starting starting
life, you know, well educate allthose things. Very good. I come
from, you know, Sri Lanka andthird world country suffering
from, you know, social issues.
And, and yeah, look, I'mgrateful that I've come to
Australia, given me opportunity.

(07:22):
So I have you learned where Istarted from, and I've tried to
progress my self in some way.
And that's what you've done?

Stephen Armytage (07:33):
Well, and you haven't I'm what I would say to
that is, is don't make anexcuse. True, if we want to
evolve, then don't make anexcuse.

Jeremy Melder (07:45):
It's almost like playing a bit of a victim, isn't
it? Exactly.

Stephen Armytage (07:49):
Yeah. So that, that that's another great one,
right? It's like, you're worthy.
But I'm not worthy, or you gotthis, but I can't. Because of
this, it's making an excuse. Andmy experience is that we are
connected to the most enormouscreative force. And this is
sounding woowoo. But it's myexperience that there are many,

(08:09):
many, many examples of peoplethat start with nothing, and
have huge tragedy in theirlives. And they achieve more way
more than their peer group, theyachieved more than everybody.
And these are the icons, right?
And they didn't, they aren'tfinding excuses not to in Isay
evolve, but to achieve what theywould love. So for me, lapo is

(08:35):
about providing some of thefundamentals that I would have
liked to have learned in school,I had a good education wasn't a
great education. Because I gotout, I didn't work out that I
actually didn't was interestedin learning until I left
university. But the thing isthat the people that achieve and

(08:56):
there's a whole question aroundsuccess versus fulfillment that
I would, you know, maybe we getinto now, but you're only giving
me 20 minutes. So unlikelyviewers

Jeremy Melder (09:04):
always gone over, but that's okay.

Stephen Armytage (09:08):
But, for me, success is to be fulfilled, to
be being successful as beingfulfilled. And that can be right
now, you know, if I achieved tothis point, then I'd be feeling
fulfilled because I've throwneverything at it. I've done my

(09:28):
best. Yeah. I take, you know,feedback from other people, you
know, good, bad and ugly.
Sometimes I react to that. Maybemost of the time. But I do my
best. So constructive feedback,destructive feedback. It's all
feedback. And that gives me anability to be able to have an
objective view that's outside ofmy frame. And if there's an

(09:49):
opportunity to improve anaspect, like I said, I'm an
optimizer. And for me, I'm aninnate educator. So If I have a
learning experience, then then Iwant to put that into a
framework that can be thenshared. Because I'm, I lament
the fact that we're such anevolved species. And yet,

(10:11):
everybody seems to have to learnthis fundamental stuff by route
for themselves. And it's not avery efficient way to go. And
that might have been okay. Forpast the problem is that we're,
we're actually destroying thefuture of our species potential
to thrive in the process. And Ihave a problem that, so that's

(10:33):
why I'm doing what I'm doing.
And hey, there's no compromisein that either. Because I think
I'm a better man as a functionof that. Yeah, I think I'm a
better friend. I think I beatyou, but only you can tell me
that. And my wife can tell me amI a better husband than I was
before? And was Am I areasonable dad? And you know, do

(10:53):
I turn up at the Rural FireService? Am I a good guy there?
Am I Am I just bullshittingmyself? And I think we can
bullshit ourselves. Andobjectivity is the antidote for
that. But what's the excuse forexcuses? If we excuse ourselves?
Because, you know, because of, Ican't do that, because of that's

(11:15):
really detrimental. So yeah,there's Well, thanks

Jeremy Melder (11:19):
for silencing that is a partial rent for you.
So I think you were talking thisweek about gratitude? And where
do you think gratitude fits into living a rich and purposeful
life? Because I think the honorfor me, I think gratitude is

(11:40):
come into my sphere only in thelast sort of 10 years, where I
am actually looking at it andgoing, what am I really grateful
for every day. And it does helpto alleviate some of that
burden, by looking at things ina different light of gratitude.

Stephen Armytage (12:05):
So I'm a novice at gratitude. I did a
Facebook live about on Monday,Tuesday. So I've kind of been
skeptical about gratitude, itkind of sounded really woowoo.
To me, I didn't really get it.
So I'm probably not the bestguy, you've probably can, can
talk chapter of us about thevalue of gratitude, but, but I

(12:27):
can, I can give you my ownpersonal experience. And once
again, I take an analyticalview, and I have a disposition
towards depression kind ofblackdog, my dad had it, I've
got a bit of it. It's notnecessarily bad, but it's
something that I need to manageon an active basis. And I find
gratitude is the antidote forthat. And I really just learned

(12:48):
that in a in the most powerfulway, where I went through a
three minute process, I wasfeeling overwhelmed. And that
kind of is the spiral for my youknow, and it's depression,
clinical depression, it's just adepressive cycle that can take a
week, or a day, or three days ora month to work through. And in

(13:11):
that process, I'm not turning upat my full potential, so
therefore, I'm compromisingmine, my environment and myself,
my relationships, I tend to getangry quicker, I tend to get
more frustrated more quickly. Itend to do shit that, that I,
you know, if I'm in a greatframe, but I don't do or I do

(13:31):
less of, I'm an optimizer. Sowhat is gratitude do for me,
being grateful for the thingsdoesn't need to be like 1000
things, it's like, what whatthings am I grateful for, and to
focus on those and I startedwith my wife, and then I went to
my kids, and then I went to my,you know, my relationships and,

(13:54):
and that was almost enough. AndI found that that this
depressive cycle got nipped inthe bud and then I was able to
then move into a more functionalstate. And then from there, I
was able to take, you know, kindof uncomfortable action or
courageous action, becausegratitude helps a change of

(14:17):
state, but without action. It'spretty invaluable because
sitting in my head, getsdepression sits in my head. And
this notion of gratitude sits inmy head. And if I just sit in my
head, and I don't take action,you know, what for? So for me,
taking purposeful action, is thebit that needs to come next, and

(14:40):
I'm constantly trying to, youknow, beat my head, because my
head doesn't always support meas best as I could. My frame of
reference is not objective. Imean, I don't know how much
comes from us. subjective kindof what's that word for the

(15:01):
subconscious? The subconsciousmind kind of rules the roost,
right? I mean, there's, youknow, these people are talking
about, and there's a lot ofpsychology around this, our view
of the world is set by somebodywho's less than seven years old.
So we're fighting, potentially abattle, potentially losing

(15:26):
battle with an orientation froma seven year old, or a six year
old, or a five year old, who wasunloved or whatever. So for me,
how do we say gratitude, I'vejust understood helps me to be
an antidote to some of that.
wiring. Yeah, and like I said,I'm not a master at it. But I'm,

(15:50):
you know, I'm doing my best.

Jeremy Melder (15:53):
Well, thank you for being so honest about where
you're at. I've got anotherquestion for you. You said, how
can one cultivate a meaningfulrelationship to contribute to
living a rich and purposefullife?

Stephen Armytage (16:10):
Well get enriched, the work starts with
you getting rich, you know, andit's a bit like, you know, you
want to be you want to be agood, you want to be a good
husband, then be a good personto start with, but be happy with
yourself. Because you can'tserve another on a sustainable

(16:35):
basis, without being prepared toserve yourself in equal measure.
And I would urge you to serveyourself really well, so that
you have the capacity to serveothers. And for me, so firstly,
it's Find Enrichment For yoursoul retrieval, enrichment. And
then from that place, and this,that's not, that's not being

(17:00):
self serving or selfish. It'sjust honor yourself and find the
things that float your boat,that puts in a fuel in the tank.
And then from there, resonate onthe things that help you to be
enriched in the first place toidentify purpose, and then find

(17:26):
ways that your purpose can beapplied to serve others. And if
you can apply your purpose toserve others in a meaningful
way, then that's good for them.
And it's also good for youbecause you then become
fulfilled and fulfilled is areally, it's a good thing to
aspire for. And it's way betterthan going for success, which is

(17:49):
very externally oriented.
fulfillment comes from within.
So when you feel fulfilled, Idon't know about you, but when
you think of fulfilled you feelkind of full. Absolutely. And
gratitude in there, right? Yeah.
Because you go, Hey, I'mgrateful because I did this

(18:11):
thing. That feels really goodfor me. And it's so good for the
person that I just did it with.
Yeah, we both won one. It's awin win. Yeah, there is no
compromise in that. And I feellike I feel really fulfilled and
incredibly grateful for you togive me this opportunity to
share this in a way that couldpotentially serve another. Yeah,

Jeremy Melder (18:33):
that's important.
Let's just keep this shit away.
Right? Yeah. Look, I reallyliked this. Well, no, let me
just be honest, I've always, youknow, had a hard time of putting
myself first. Right? Yeah, he'scheating. You remember the
analogy of the, you know, you goon a plane and they say, you
know, fasten your seat belts,you know, the oxygen masks mask

(18:56):
for yourself first. Well, I wasthat guy that made you

Stephen Armytage (18:59):
were putting the oxygen in the entire cabin.
And unfortunately, you died inthe process.

Jeremy Melder (19:06):
So anyway, I'm a slow learner. So I'm learning
about this whole thing aboutlooking after myself. But I
think there's a lot of peoplelike me, you know, that I've
just gone off being brought upin a certain way. And I think
that is the way that you liveyour life looking after others.
And then you end up burnt out.
And then if you like me,resentful, that you've done all

(19:27):
of this, but you don't know whyyou're resentful. Right? But
it's then coming back toyourself. And then when I came
back to myself, it was like, Ah,fine look after myself. I get
the oxygen mask first. It's onlygoing to benefit all others
around me. And look, if you cando this earlier than it's taken

(19:52):
me. It would be great for youbecause it is Really important,
looking after yourself. It's thenumber one thing that you need
to do. And learning to loveyourself is another important
thing. And I think Steven willecho this as well, would you

(20:13):
not?

Stephen Armytage (20:15):
Totally? Yep.
And I mean, we all come preconfigured differently, right?
So I think, for me, it's, it'sdifferent from everybody for
everybody, right? So we're allunique beings, and the problem
with a retreat or a course or alearning or whatever, when
somebody's telling you what theanswer is, it, that's the answer
for them. But it may not be theanswer for you. But no question.
Everybody needs to look afterthemselves. Otherwise, they

(20:39):
will, at some point burn outlike you did, you know, and
things will manifest by your,you know, your rheumatoid
arthritis manifested probablyfrom that place, right. And
that, for me is like, whathappens when we aren't, you
know, listening to what's goingon. And the message is just
going to knock on the desk, themessages from wherever they come

(21:02):
from the universe, or ourselvesagenda or whatever, they just
get, the knocking just getsstronger and stronger. Till
literally, we are playingRussian roulette with everything
that we hold near and dear,including our health. And
depending on how far we let thatgo down it then may, it may

(21:22):
provide us with a life long,limp, or condition. But it's not
life's not over. It's just, it'slike it's adding interesting
texture to, frankly, Perfectionsnot that great. Yeah, you know,
a scar here and a mole there,and a receding hairline. There.

Jeremy Melder (21:48):
So I was worried about how I look my getting a
bit bold,

Stephen Armytage (21:51):
as much as as much as we don't like that. It's
like it goes to the character ofwho we are. So you know, and
it's ongoing lesson. And soyou've got your rheumatoid
arthritis. And there's a wholebunch of things that you do to
respond, to turn it up as bestas you possibly can. I recognize
that I've got my depressionthing, right. And, you know,

(22:13):
it's helpful, really, becauseit's like, it's like a dial in a
race car, right? You got allthis instrumentation that
sitting there, my depressiongoes like this, then I'm not in
the optimal state. If I'm fullof energy, and I'm waking up
literally, early in the morning,bright eyed, bushy tailed, I'm
getting a download feeling likeI've got more energy than and

(22:34):
just, you know, life is justsinging. Then all of my gauges
are all sitting at you know,they're in the good to awesome
to excellent. But when mydepression starts getting
darker, you know, something'sgone wrong. Oh, shit, what's
gone wrong? Go back to my circleof enrichment. What am I not
doing? Yeah. Not feelinggrateful for what? I've got

(22:55):
shit, what have I got? I've gota lot. That's great. I've got
I've just celebrated 29 yearswith the most awesome woman on
the planet. Doesn't mean thatshe doesn't have faults, sign
you have faults? Doesn't mean Idon't have fault, son. I've got
faults. But are we togetherafter 29 years? Yes. am I
grateful for that? Oh, my God, Iam so grateful for that. And I'm

(23:17):
kind of grateful for the factthat we've just been through
this really tough time together.
Because it now I just go likeit's even better than it was and
it is even better. But it's likethat challenge somehow makes
this even better. And I can'ttell you objectively whether or
not my relationship with my wifeis better now than it was
before. I think it is. Butdoesn't really matter. Because

(23:39):
my frame is like, oh, party timefulfilled. You know, every all
my gauges are right, and it'sjust getting better. And I feel
like from. So it's like we kindof in this process, we need to
trick our mind, to keep itsupporting us to be making
progress going forward. Andraising our vibration.

Jeremy Melder (24:03):
Thanks for sharing that now. I guess. In
terms of your course coming out,or weekend, whatever you'd like
to call it. The retreat. There'sa bit of work involved. Isn't
there? What sort of? I wouldn'tcall it work, but what would you
call it?

Stephen Armytage (24:23):
Firstly, firstly, you get way more than
you put in. Sorry, you get waymore than you'd imagine. So
firstly, if you so it's fournights, five days, right? So if
you choose to invest in yourselffor five, five days, then you're

(24:48):
gonna get something out ofthere. That's going to be
extraordinary. So if you getnothing out then you're gonna
get something really amazing.
The second thing is that you'regoing to be doing that with
other people that are doing thatfor themselves. But they're,
they're co creating, and they'recollaborating with you. So that

(25:11):
effect is like a multiplyingeffect. And I think we've all
been in situations where we goto a place, maybe for it's for a
conference for work, orwhatever, and it's the
watercooler conversation, wherewe go, shit, that was just as
valuable as what that Rockstarspeaker was about. So that's the

(25:35):
second factor. The third factoris that I have a curriculum that
I know that will take you from aplace where you don't want to be
without the answers to a placewhere you know the answers. And
you have an action plan morethan an action plan, you have a
routine that's going to propelyou to where you would love to

(25:55):
be. And it's a continuousprocess of improvement. Don't
need to touch me again. Sothere's that. That's rock star.
And it's proven, and it's, it'sawesome. And it's going to
evolve, and I'll find ways toshare that of evolution as well.
Because what do I lose, youknow, it's all about making the
campsite better than when wearrived. So I've got nothing to

(26:16):
lose here. And if I can find away to keep this away, you know,
I'm going to do that. Without,you know, in a way that also
supports me. Sure. So the nextpart of it is that you are going
to be in the most stunningenvironment.

Jeremy Melder (26:38):
And I'd vouch for that. It's a beautiful place,

Stephen Armytage (26:41):
www dot guy me energy, why me a retreat, R e,
t, r ea t.com.au. There's not alot of compromise there, guys. I
mean, he's stunning, northernNew South Wales. This ability to
be able to immerse in gorgeousnature, you know, and then

(27:03):
you're going to be nurtured. Soyou're going to have a whole
bunch of downtime that is goingto support you to journal or to
talk or to sleep or whatever itis, you need to integrate,
because we're going to beintegrating some big things
because big stuffs going tohappen in this. And this part of
the world is incrediblypowerful. I don't know why I

(27:26):
think the mountains gotsomething to do with it, the
mountain mount warning. Well,London is like an icon. The
indigenous people of this thisland they've been, they
understand the significance ofthis, of this mountain. And they
come for ceremony and have comefor a ceremony for 1000s of
years, because they understandthat it's it's a special part of

(27:47):
the world. I don't know why it'sa special part of the world, but
it is a special part of theworld. And the retreat center
lives in this fold. It's veryfeminine supportive fold of
land, that supports and holdsyou for the rock star and energy
the amplifying energy that comesI think from the mountain. So
the environment like off thecharts. And then we're going to

(28:09):
give you sound therapy, breathmeditation, movement, medicine,
yoga, writing exercises,intuitive exercises, meditate
meditative exercises to help usto access those our inner arena
guide our higher selves, ourintuition, souls, energy cells,

(28:30):
agenda, qualia, whatever youlike. But it's that inner sense
that gut feel, how do we connectto that, because that's a
reliable source of energy. It'sa reliable source of
information. It's the mostreliable source of information,
and we can all have access toit. But we're not taught how to
do that at school. This is ascience guy, physics guy,
computer science guy. I knowthis beyond a shadow of a doubt.

(28:53):
So we're going to be accessingthat but but as we access that,
we need a lot of downtime to beable to support our adrenals to
kind of come back. So there'sthose activities, there's the
walk in nature, there's swimmingin the magnesium pool that's 20
meters long and three metersdeep, and is stunning. And
you're gonna have a session andthe spa. So there's heat and

(29:14):
there's the cold, there's thesteam room and the sauna. And
you're gonna get a 60 minuterelaxation massage. So, you
know, to layer upon layer uponlayer. And there's no one key
element in that. But it allstarts with you saying, Hey, I
deserve this. I'm going toinvest in myself. And if you

(29:35):
just do that for five days, youget your money's worth, you
know, do a personal retreatwhere you stay on track and, you
know, you don't get engaged inthat. Yeah. Because that's, you
know, potentially the mostvaluable instrument that you can
have in your hand and it'sPinterest, essentially the most
detrimental instrument that youcan have in your head. And it's
about finding that dance thebalance, so that That's what law

(30:00):
pool is about love was aboutproviding you with the
environment to find thosequestions to find those answers
that you are seeking, and toprovide you with the most
perfect environment to allow youto leapfrog into a state of
thriving. That's, and I've doneeverything in my power to do
that. And I've also done it, youknow, at a price that's like,

Jeremy Melder (30:22):
Valuable,

Stephen Armytage (30:23):
incredibly valuable. And it's like, it's
cheap compared to other, youknow, experiences. And why?
Well, partly, that's becauseI've got a very strong sense
that this thing is going to workbeautifully in a completely in a
group environment. And we'restill testing some things here
that to make sure that theyactually do fly. Now, will they
raise the price in the future, Idon't know, maybe possibly, I

(30:46):
don't know. Well, I find a moreefficient and effective way to
be able to share this wisdomwith others. I'm looking for
those for those avenues rightnow. But I need to crack some
tough nut, I need to make surethat this thing is industrial
strength. And I've got a historyof industrial strength things.
That's where I started my careerwith industrial strength, things

(31:07):
that are reliable anddependable. And it doesn't
matter what you throw at them,they're going to work. And that
I believe is what the frameworkis about. And then I've just
encapsulated it in anenvironment that is just
incredibly supportive. So yeah,

Jeremy Melder (31:22):
I think you kind of hit the nail on the head
there, you know, industrialstrength. Mr. Steven Armitage.
That's that's what I'm, that'swhat you're really about. And
you've been striving for thisfor a long time. And I know that
I can vouch for that as a, as anobserver of your life, or
witnessed of your life, and aperson that is coming from the

(31:43):
right place in what you'rewanting to achieve and what
you're wanting to do, and sharewith good people. So I would
like to invite people to, youknow, take part in this
beautiful journey that you cantake part in in on the 31st of
May, it starts and finishesconcludes on the What date is it

(32:04):
the

Stephen Armytage (32:05):
Sunday June the fourth, so it starts on the
Wednesday afternoon. And then itgoes until the Sunday like 1030
and 11 o'clock gives people toget there on time, but to take
the Wedensday off to get thereprobably. And then you've got
the Sunday to go home. And Iwant you to take the Monday off
as well. So that you canintegrate get the most out of
this. CSI it's it's the 31st ofMay, to the fourth of June. And

(32:32):
I would just say that this isthis has been 14 years in the
making. And and I pretty muchthrown everything at that. So
yeah, it's it's industrialstrength. And that that, for me
is the key. And the major willbe you know, that people get the
answers that they you know, theyget more than the answers that
they're seeking. And that's theexperience that I've had with

(32:52):
people that have gone, they'vetaken the journey with me
