To turn the mouth turn you probably got to turn
the mouth, turn out a the money.

Speaker 3 (01:48):
Jo Look, come.

Speaker 1 (01:58):
Come on, you think I sure will?

Speaker 5 (02:03):
Good morning everybody you are listening to the voice, Come
on dig me now, one and only Steve Harvey.

Speaker 1 (02:10):
Got a radio show. Man, oh man, oh man. You
know what y'all.

Speaker 5 (02:16):
I mean, really, the goodness of God is overwhelming if
you think about it, I mean, really really think about it,
even when your circumstance doesn't look so bright, even when
you're going through something that's causing you discomfort, pain, Even
in that God's goodness is actually overwhelming because don't forget

(02:43):
why you're going through this moment.

Speaker 1 (02:46):
First of all, this too shall pass, but also secondly.

Speaker 5 (02:49):
Remember man, ain't everything else that you've gone through that
seems so insurmountable at.

Speaker 1 (02:56):
The time, didn't you get past that too? I mean,
it's amazing.

Speaker 5 (03:02):
If you really think about it, you don't get stuck
on any one issue your whole life. The only people
that get stuck on an issue they whole life is
people who won't let it go. That's really all it is.
There are people who exist, and you may be one
of them. Oh please know, I've been guilty of it

(03:22):
myself before, but I learned something. There are things in
my past that I just would not let go of.
It was done, it was over with. I was past it,
but I I would not let go of it.

Speaker 1 (03:38):
It was over.

Speaker 5 (03:39):
The dude that did it tell me didn't exist no more.
The problem that it created didn't exist no more. The
only problem that kept hanging on was I would not
let it go. And man, you can't go forward if
you gonna keep looking in the past. It's an impossible thing.
It's like driving a car. If you keep looking only

(04:02):
in the rearview mirror while you're driving, you're going to
crash pretty soon. And a lot of people just keep
crashing over and over and over and over because you
won't drive your car. You keep looking in the real
view mirror at your past. Oh woe it's me.

Speaker 1 (04:20):
Oh you know they did me like that. You know
I ain't been the same since he cheated on me. Oh, man.

Speaker 5 (04:25):
Every since she stole my money, I ain't been the
same man she played me, and ever since that I
done treated women differently. You may have some deeper stuff
going on, but eventually, guess what, do you understand that
when you have a relationship God with God, you can
take that to him too and drop it off and
leave it there.

Speaker 1 (04:47):
Do you know that He can fix and heal that.

Speaker 5 (04:50):
Maybe it's something serious like that that you need fixing
or healing from, a relationship with God can fix and
heal that. But man, come on, y'all, whatever it is,
and I'm not trying to downplay it or make it
act like it wasn't traumatic in your life, because oh God,
you don't want to know. You don't want nobody to
do that to you because you want to be the

(05:12):
you know, the post a child for misery. So please
don't let me take that from you. If that's your position,
that's your hall of fame card you hanging on to.
I'm the poster child for misery. Oh no one is
more woe than me than Please don't let Steve try
to take that from you. You go ahead and hang

(05:32):
on to that. But let me tell you something though,
If that's what you're gonna hang on to. That's what
you're gonna always be the poster child for misery. At
one point in time, you're gonna have to get on
and move past it. Sometimes, man, it's merely a simple
thing of taking it to God and leaving it there.
You know, some people don't have money for therapy. Some

(05:53):
people don't even know who to call for therapy. God
is the best psychologist in the world. He can fix
it for you. There is nothing too hard for God.
You know when something seems impossible, y'all, God does the
impossible all the time every day.

Speaker 1 (06:10):
You won't know how I know.

Speaker 5 (06:12):
I just look at a couple basic things. Do you
know that that sun comes up every day in the morning.
It comes up in the east and it sets in
the west. You can't do nothing about that. All you
can wish because you plant at your flowers on a
certain side of your house.

Speaker 1 (06:27):
You can wish all you want.

Speaker 5 (06:29):
Then maybe one day he would bring it up out
the northwest, so those flowers would be No. Now it's
gonna come up out the east, and once the sun
hits the horizon when you look in the water, like
if you ever out in La and you see the
sun going down. Once the sun once you can visually
see the sun touching the horizon, you have three minutes.

(06:50):
You have exactly three minutes. You can sit there with
your watch. You can time, yeah, three minutes and it's gone.
Three minutes is gone.

Speaker 1 (06:58):
I read that somewhere and then I and tried it.

Speaker 5 (07:01):
It's gone every day if it's clear enough, not cloudy.
Once the sun touches the horizon. On water, you got
three minutes. When the wind blows, you can't do nothing
about it. He can bring it from the northeast, he
can bring it from the west, he can bring from
the south. He can bring it hard, he can bring
it cool, he can bring it hot. It's certain things

(07:22):
that God does the impossible all the time. How those
stars sitting up there, How can you find these constellations?
The big dipp of the Little Dipper, Ryan the Hunter
All that's God.

Speaker 6 (07:34):
God.

Speaker 5 (07:34):
Ain't nothing you can do about it. You can't reach
them stars, you can't shoot at them, you can't move
them out the way. Or Ryan the Hunter's belt, there's
gonna beat them three stars out of ankle. You can
call it what you want to call it. Still, that's
what it is. See, He does the impossible all the time.
He created heaven and earth. You're saying that God can't
get you through your past. Somebody did just to me.

(07:57):
It's the worst thing I had, the worst childhood of
any God can't get you past that. He can move heaven, mountains, Earth,
he can form the Grand Canyon, he can make the
water come over Niagara Falls twenty four seven. He can't
fix yo little bitty past yours. It's amazing how people

(08:18):
make their problems bigger than God. Somebody told me one time,
stop telling God how big your problems are, and start
telling your problems how big God is, and go on
with your life. Quit driving your car looking in the
rear view mirror. Ain't nothing back there but your past.

(08:39):
And if it was hurtful or painful, or something you
just felt like you can't get over, take your problems
to God and leave them there. You hear the old
spiritual all you've heard it, take your birdens to the Lord,
leave them yet all the time.

Speaker 1 (08:53):
But you think that applies to everyone.

Speaker 5 (08:55):
But you, come on, man, a lot of people out
there going through much worse than you have and have
overcome it all. Why won't you take the step to
overcome your past, so you can get on with driving
your car and see what God trying to take you.

Speaker 1 (09:10):
But it's a trick of the enemy.

Speaker 5 (09:12):
The enemy tricks you from seeing your future by having
you constantly looking in your past.

Speaker 1 (09:19):
Man, it's a trick of the devil.

Speaker 5 (09:20):
If the devil just let you quit, if he would
just let you get to drive in your car, look
out into your future. Your future shows hopefulness. You have
hope when you see the future. But he can keep
you in misery if he keep you looking at your
miserable past. God looking for you, man, God would love

(09:41):
to hear from you. Let's spend some time talking to
God today. Hey God, what's happening.

Speaker 1 (09:47):
It's me. I know I ain't talk to you in
a while, but feel bad about that. But I need you.

Speaker 7 (09:53):

Speaker 1 (09:54):

basement of the church and help people pay two dollars

Yeah, I can bring this up to her, but she's
really focusing on getting the magic shave on and getting
the bed at all.

you're paid? That foundry at for a motor.

Speaker 1 (28:03):
Come, Oh, you you wouldn't do that.

Speaker 5 (28:07):
I wouldn't do that, and I would not do no
the worst that you know, the Foundry, I didn't like it,
the assimilar line at Ford.

Speaker 7 (28:16):
Man.

Speaker 5 (28:16):
I have some cool people I work with that wasn't bad.
Going to work wasn't what I was meant to do.
But uh, the linking electric is the worst job I've
ever had.

Speaker 1 (28:26):
I hate it. What did you do there? What did
you do that?

Speaker 5 (28:29):
I wrap coil wire? You It's really it's tough. You
know what dies are.

Speaker 1 (28:36):
Dies are these.

Speaker 5 (28:37):
Small round things that you pull wire through, and every
die gets smaller. So the wire goes through and compresses
and shaves down and gets thinner and thinner. So let's
say the wire starts like a microphone cord, okay, and
what you're trying to get it down to is a

(28:57):
chord wire that goes in side of inside of speaker whire.

Speaker 1 (29:04):
It is really yeah, So you put that through.

Speaker 5 (29:06):
The die and it goes through this machine at a
high speed, and every diet goes through every six eight
feet gets small and smaller, and it wraps up into
a big coil.

Speaker 1 (29:18):
And then you got to box it up and put
it on the pallet.

Speaker 5 (29:21):
Now to break even, your dad had to make two
hundred and thirty eight boxes a day.

Speaker 1 (29:27):
Wow, it'd be some days. I finished. I got eighty
thirty short.

Speaker 6 (29:37):
Ugly, I mean, you.

Speaker 5 (29:38):
Know, but now you're gonna get a guarantee, but to
get the bonus you had to make extra and at
the end of the year, guys was getting fifty thousand
dollars bonuses.

Speaker 1 (29:50):
Sixty five thousand dollars bonus. What you get? I ain't
never get a bonus. Oh you didn't even get a
bonus period? Why was it? Why was you so low
with yours? I hate it? Thank you, Tommy. You just
hated man.

Speaker 5 (30:04):
I didn't like doing the mechanical work to keep the
line running because you had to change ther dies all
the time, because the respect to come by and tell
you that your wire has a score in it, which
means a little scratch.

Speaker 1 (30:16):
That means one of the dies is wore out and
you don't catch it.

Speaker 5 (30:20):
And then the inspector come by and x out all
your boxes in the box with the scores and it
got to go. So you lose fifteen fifteen boxes went
up inspected. Come it was I hate it.

Speaker 1 (30:35):
Wow, you're depressed telling us about it? So at that?
What how old were you then?

Speaker 11 (30:44):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (30:46):
Twenty three? So that was one of your first full
time jobs. Right after did you quit? Did you quit
or they fired?

Speaker 7 (30:56):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (30:56):
I quit? I made story.

Speaker 10 (31:02):
Say what is happening.

Speaker 1 (31:05):
You're not doing any business.

Speaker 5 (31:07):
Came through the small business, opened up, carp clean and
coming down. I didn't have no loan. I just wanted
to walk out with dignity. Look, hall, man, we're gonna
miss you. Man.

Speaker 1 (31:21):

Speaker 7 (31:23):

Speaker 1 (31:23):
You kept us live in here. Man with that, Why
I have been whooping your behind that.

Speaker 5 (31:30):
Sad I was dying. Tell me I was dying, man.
Word midnight shipt from midnight to eight in the morning.
I would be so so coming home I drive by
my exit. Wow, that's how sleepy I would be. I
missed my exit at least five times.

Speaker 9 (31:48):
Okay, so let's switch it and ask you what was
the best summer job you had, because that depressed us.

Speaker 5 (31:54):

lifeguard and can't swim. That's the best job in college.

I have so much stuff in that pool. I was
throwing furniture in the pool. I had so much furniture
in the pool that one dude got in trouble and
I threw so much stuff in the pool he could
walk out.

Speaker 1 (32:33):
He just threw a style foam cool out. I had
so much pool more furniture that he could walk out.

Speaker 10 (32:40):
So they didn't test you or anything to see if
you could swim.

Speaker 1 (32:43):
They just hired you on the spot. That's crazy.

Speaker 5 (37:31):
Open them on my little big ass teeth in there. Man,
you I gotta have teeth to get around these lips, all.

Speaker 1 (37:42):
Right, All right? Thank you.

Speaker 9 (37:44):
That's today's round of would you rather you're listening Hard
Morning Show? Well, Stephen Tommy, you two are like the
grilling experts on the show, the barbecue experts on the show.

Speaker 10 (37:57):
So I wanted to know if you guys had any
tips us hips for grilling.

Speaker 1 (38:02):
For grilling, let me go, let me go first, he's
been cooking on that helm. Let me go.

Speaker 8 (38:06):
This is what bothers me about people grilling. Quit putting
all that light of.

Speaker 1 (38:12):
Fluid on your charcoal all your woods. That just drives
me crazy. Do you realize your meat smells just like
that light of fluid.

Speaker 8 (38:23):
It tastes like that. Come on, man, get you some wood.
They got some natural wood starters that you can put
in there and light those up. And now your wood
or your charcoal, whichever one you using, doesn't taste like
a smell like all this gas light of fluid you
can put on that.

Speaker 1 (38:41):
That's that's one of my tips right there. That's a
pet peeble man eat.

Speaker 5 (38:45):
So let me just piggyback off that and say to
start your fire. They sell, they'd sell. What time he's
talking about is fire starters, wood starters whereber little white
chunks they got match sticks that burn naturally that you
can put on it. But they have these things that
look like coffee cans. They look like a big giant

(39:10):
coffee mug. You put your charcoal in it and light
it from the bottom right, and that can get your
charcoal started a little bit more even for you. You
don't pour the charcoal in the basin of your thing.
You pour the charcoal in this like big round pot
and it started like that. Yes, it's gotta handle on it.

(39:31):
Then you just pour it in there and they'll burn.
Even this is little stuff you can learn. I have
another tip.

Speaker 1 (39:36):
When it's my tip.

Speaker 8 (39:38):
Okay, here's another people that people that are you know, amateurs,
are grilling. They throw their chicken on and then you think,
twenty minutes later your chicken is done.

Speaker 1 (39:47):
Your chicken ain't done? Okay, surely good and it's a sport.
And why are you while we talking about cooking? Why
up trying to stay awake? Why it takes so long?
We'll learn how to cook. Would be awake? Hell, the

(40:11):
people come over your house and not leave so much.
If you can cook, you have bring something. So listen.

Speaker 8 (40:19):
While you're cooking your chicken, keep flipping it and don't
be afraid the slice a piece and see what. Yeah,
if you see a little light red water, you need
to cook a little long. That means it's still some
blood in that. Keep cooking your chicken, keep flipping it,
and keep cooking. That's all I'm asking.

Speaker 5 (40:34):
Look, man, grilling ain't no thing where you can leave
your meat for ten minutes and walk off somewhere.

Speaker 1 (40:39):
That ain't There's some people going in the house for
thirty minutes.

Speaker 8 (40:43):
What did you know?

Speaker 5 (40:44):
You can't do that when you grilling. Grilling is a sport,
it's an activity. You got to move that chicken to
the front, to the back. Go ahead, okay, okay, let's
go back real yeah, go ahead that one.

Speaker 1 (40:58):
Jay, Okay.

Speaker 12 (41:00):
I know nothing about grilling.

Speaker 1 (41:01):
I think what you guys are saying is great.

Speaker 12 (41:04):
If you add a barbecue, please bring good ass plates.

Speaker 1 (41:08):
Okay.

Speaker 12 (41:09):
If the sign says cheap plates. If it says cheap plates,
damn it, don't bring them. Okay, it says cheap plates,
right there, bring good ass plates.

Speaker 4 (41:20):
All right?

Speaker 8 (41:21):
All right, here's one quick. When I give it back
on the steak. When you when you he said your charcoals,
are you eaving them out?

Speaker 7 (41:29):
You know?

Speaker 1 (41:29):
When you get it, when you get it going. But
some of us like to have a real hot side
and then a warm side while you cook it. You understand.

Speaker 8 (41:37):
But you may have more wood or more charcoals on
one side and then on another side you got you
still got wooden charcoals, but it's not as heavy as
the other side.

Speaker 1 (41:45):
That's just one of my tips.

Speaker 5 (41:46):
Yeah, my tip is I have the backside of my grill.
I put no charcoal back there. On the backside, I.

Speaker 1 (41:55):
Put none so you could move some meat off that heat.

Speaker 5 (42:00):
If it's cooking. Two fangs, the cooler those are. You
gotta have what Tim is talking about, a cool spot
on the grill. I put no charcoal on the back.
On the back and forth of the grill, I put
no chocolate.

Speaker 1 (42:12):
This was so exciting. And you can set the money on.
You can set the meat on top of each.

Speaker 5 (42:17):
Piece if you have to to keep it off the stacket.
And Shirley, don't rush us with your learn picking nad.
There's people who care about this.

Speaker 1 (42:27):
This is fast for a plate. Though. Yes, ain't nobody
coming to your house eating no damn crock pod on
my morning. We gotta go.

Speaker 9 (42:37):

Speaker 13 (52:36):
All right, ladies and gentlemen, it's time for the Strawberry
Letter with my good friend Shirley Strawberry.

Speaker 9 (52:40):
All right, thank you, Junior in for Tommy subject he
left the restaurant with his wife. Okay, Dear Stephen, Shirley,
I was dating mister Wright for almost one year and
we got a condo together and looked at rings together.
He's a physician and his practice is about an hour
from where our condo is.

Speaker 1 (53:02):
We dated publicly, and I met all his friends and
his sister.

Speaker 9 (53:06):
He never gave me any reason to suspect that he
was married. He is an avid golfer in his spare time,
and he usually stays at the resort where he golfs
on the weekend. Again, I had no idea that he
was married, since he spends most nights with me and
a few nights in the city where his medical practice is.
Two weeks ago, he decided we'd go to the wharf

(53:29):
and have a nice dinner with another couple. I got
excited because I thought he might be ready to propose.
We'd never been to this restaurant before, but when we
got there, all the waiters and staff there greeted him
and called him by name. We sat in a private room,
and my stomach was in nuts the whole time, because

(53:49):
I thought tonight was the night. As we got to
dessert and had had a few cocktails, the door opened
and a woman walked in wearing sweats and a bonnet.
She said thanks to the waiter, and she walked toward us.
She came to our table and asked my man to

(54:09):
get up and come with her. My man smiled at
me and squeezed my hand under the table. Before he
got up, he asked the other guy to handle the
check and make sure I got home safely. I jumped
up and asked what was going on. The woman advised
me to sit back down and enjoy the.

Speaker 1 (54:28):
Rest of my evening. My man didn't even look my way.

Speaker 9 (54:34):
I sat down, and the woman at the table told
me that that was Jim's wife. Well, Jim and I
have created a life together and he hasn't reached out
to me in almost two weeks.

Speaker 1 (54:44):
What do I do now?

Speaker 9 (54:46):
Okay, I think you already know the answer to this.
You don't have many choices here, you really don't. But
the one thing you have to do is pick up
the pieces and try to get your life back on track.
You got to move on, You have to. I mean,
this man is married, plain and simple. His friends know it, obviously,
the waiters at the restaurant knows it.

Speaker 1 (55:09):
He knows it.

Speaker 4 (55:10):
He just didn't tell you.

Speaker 1 (55:11):
You were the only one in the dark, and for
almost a year he was able to keep this going.
How did you guys get a condo together without you
knowing this.

Speaker 9 (55:21):
You looked at rings. He didn't buy your ring, but
you looked at rings together. You know, obviously he has money.
He's a doctor. So what he's doing is staying with you.
And you know some of those nights when he stays
with you, but the other nights he's with his wife.

Speaker 1 (55:36):
Obviously.

Speaker 9 (55:37):
I guess they're still together, because she certainly thought they did.
They were all the waiters knew her as well.

Speaker 1 (55:44):
So what do you do now?

Speaker 9 (55:45):
Like I said, pick up those pieces, start to move
on with your life. This man has not reached out
to you in almost two weeks. The last thing you
heard from him is when he squeezed your hand under
the table and told his friend to make sure you
got home safely. Well, his friend did that. It's no
use in trying to chase after this guy, It really isn't.
He's got a wife.

Speaker 1 (56:06):
You don't need.

Speaker 9 (56:06):
All that you need to figure out about the situation
with this condo is his name on it, is your
name on it? Can you stay there? Can you sell
it and get something else? That's what you need to
be concentrating on right now, Steve.

Speaker 5 (56:21):
All right, lord Lord, Lord dismain right here now, y'all
what I'm about to share, what y'all is. I know
exactly what happened in listening, Okay, I know all the inside.
I know what he said, I know he said how
he said it. I play golf, I know, I know

(56:43):
how he designed this whole thing. What I'm going to
reveal to you, I ain't gonna do it right now
when we come back. I just want to set y'all
off now. I want to apologize to the man that's listening.
Oh okay, because I'm going to expose the intricacies of

(57:05):
how this is all set up. Because this is a
set up, and I know every.

Speaker 1 (57:15):
Move in here.

Speaker 7 (57:17):
Now.

Speaker 5 (57:17):
See, Sherley, you don't understand, no, see you thinking he's
a liar and a cheatah, but you don't know how
the setup has happened because in his mind, his friend's
mind and her mind, all this is going down.

Speaker 1 (57:36):
Based on the setup.

Speaker 5 (57:40):
See, it's the set up you keep from getting Remember now,
when we get to the park where they were in
a private room at a restaurant where they knew his name,
there's a reason for that. And the reason his friends
were there with other women is because.

Speaker 1 (57:58):
They know to all liars and cheaters, so they all.

Speaker 7 (58:04):
That is it?

Speaker 1 (58:04):
You don't you don't know. Why did the woman so
calmly say to her that's Jim's wife. Because the women
are in on it too, right, I get that, but
lying in the cheating? No, no, they're in on the setup.

(58:25):
See who y'all keep looking at this too? Damn basic.
It's more complicated than.

Speaker 8 (58:31):
That, is it?

Speaker 1 (58:32):
Really?

Speaker 8 (58:33):
All?

Speaker 7 (58:34):
You do it?

Speaker 1 (58:35):
Shirlie? You don't know the game? Okay, but when we
come back, I know a liar. I'm gonna tell it
to you. Now just hold on, we'll to your response
coming up. You're gonna water my response, This is some mess.

Speaker 9 (58:56):
Subject left the restaurant with his wife. We'll get back
into it right after this. You're listening Steve Hardy Morning Show.

today's strawberry letter. The subject he left the restaurant with

(59:40):
his wife.

Speaker 5 (59:41):
He left a restaurant with his wife? Yeah, who else
he postedly restaurant within.

Speaker 1 (59:47):
We read this letter, he didn't go in with his wife.
Now open, let me tell you why.

Speaker 5 (59:53):
Dear Steven Shirley, I was dating mister Wright for almost
a year. We got a condo together, look for rings together.
The reason you got a condo together is the following line.
He's a physician and his practice is about an hour
from where our condo is. So now his practice is

(01:00:15):
also in the same area that his wife and family
lives in. He got the condo because he's telling you
it's an hour away from his practice, which you've never
been to, by the way, which may not really be

(01:00:40):
an hour away. See you've never been there. Now, he's
a physician. He's practiced about an hour away from where
our condo is. We dated publicly, and I met all
of his friends and sisters. The reason you dated publicly
is because he has tald his friends and his family

(01:01:03):
that he and his wife are having difficulties. They are struggling,
and he told them that that's why his friends and
sisters has been looped in. He never gave me any
reason to suspect that he was married. No, he didn't
tell you he was married because he was planning on

(01:01:26):
it all.

Speaker 1 (01:01:27):
Going away eventually.

Speaker 5 (01:01:31):
He is an avid golfer in his spare time, and
he usually stays at the resort where he golfs on
the weekend.

Speaker 1 (01:01:37):
What boy, let me tell you something.

Speaker 5 (01:01:42):
First of all, you get a golf membership within the
city confines of where you stayed. So if you're a
doctor within the city confines of where you say, you
can get to your practice and you can get to
your love of golf by just driving from your house.
Don't nobody stay at the damn golf resort while they
play golf. And once again, you've never been to the

(01:02:05):
golf resort because he focuses on his game, because he's
an avid golfer.

Speaker 1 (01:02:10):
He is not at the golf course spending the night.
He is at home.

Speaker 5 (01:02:16):
With the wife that he's having trouble with. So now
again I had no idea. Again, I had no idea
that he was married, since he spends most nights with me.
He spends the night with you because he told his
wife that he gets calls in the middle of the

(01:02:38):
night and he'd rather be closer to the hospital than
to be at home. And since they have in trouble,
they're okay with that. She knows about another place, she
just don't know you in it. See y'all listen to
my setup, ladies. Two weeks ago, we decided to go
to the wharf, the wharf and have a nice dinner
with another couple, another couple, just one. I got excited

(01:03:03):
because I thought he might be ready to propose. We
never been to this restaurant before. But when we got there,
all the waiters and staff there greeted him and called
him by name. You know, doctors got stuff like that,
you know, famous people. We sat in the private room,
and my stomach was in notes the whole time. Yeah,
because you ain't know what hell in heaven. Your stomach
was in notchs because what you thought was gonna happen,

(01:03:27):
and your stomach were really in nas In a minute though,
because I thought the night was a night.

Speaker 1 (01:03:32):
As we got desserted and had had a few cocktails.

Speaker 5 (01:03:37):
The door opened and a woman walked in wearing sweats
and a bonnet. She said thanks to the waiter, and
she walked towards us. She came to our table.

Speaker 1 (01:03:50):
Now you're in a private room. Now our table.

Speaker 5 (01:03:58):
I was young, no, no about no pride, r all,
this is exciting for you. She came down the table
and asked my man to get up and come with her.
My man smiled at me, squeezed my hand under the table.

Speaker 1 (01:04:11):
Before he got up. He asked the other guy to.

Speaker 5 (01:04:14):
Handle the check, which is his boy, who knows what
the deal is, and to make sure I got home
safe because he doctored their physician. The ain't gonna make
no fool out theyself in here now. The wife ain't
gonna ta the restaurant up because she's with she. They
know them there. They come there off, but she got

(01:04:36):
a bonnet on. She just came up out of the house.

Speaker 1 (01:04:38):
You want Monique Monique the comedian.

Speaker 5 (01:04:41):
And told her about coming out like that. Oique told Joe,
don't be coming up here like this.

Speaker 1 (01:04:49):
Here, but that's just a fly. It's not to handle
this business. Said it with love.

Speaker 5 (01:04:55):
But now when you come out the door. Manna, Now
you forgot what Monique said? Well, anyway, you in got
a bonnet on and a tracksuit and the bottom don't
match the top. Course, she got dressed right quick. My
man smiled at me, squeezed my hand on the table.
Before he got up, he asked the other guy to
handle the check man. Hand a check point man, make

(01:05:17):
sure she get home safe. I jumped up and asked
what was going on. The woman advised me to sit
back down. See this is a physician's wife. Hey, show
ass back down. She didn't advise you, she said sit
down before you get put down.

Speaker 9 (01:05:39):
All right, we'll be back with part three of the
Strawberry Letter for Jack.

Speaker 1 (01:05:44):
He left the restaurant with his wife?

Speaker 7 (01:05:46):
What is he?

Speaker 10 (01:05:47):
The liar?

Speaker 7 (01:05:48):
He's a cheater?

Speaker 1 (01:05:49):
Yes, it's simple. We'll be back with more of the
Steve Harvey Morning Show right after this.

Speaker 4 (01:05:56):
You're listening Steve Harvey Morning Show.

Speaker 9 (01:06:00):
Here we go with part three of today's Strawberry Letter.
The subject is he left the restaurant with his wife.
It really should just be he's a liar and a cheater, Steve,
I don't get it.

Speaker 5 (01:06:11):
The setup man left an important piece of information out
of this setup, and I will show you why the
whole fiasco has crumbled around him because of one gaping mistake.
He got a condoct with this woman because he done
told his wife he needs to be closer to the hospital.
His wife and I they've been all and having some troubles.

(01:06:33):
They do have some problems in the marriage, but that's
common a lot of marriages do. That's no reason to
cheat and get another place. But he got the place
where he decided to get the place with the girl.
So he got the place with the girl. Never told
his wife where. It was just his closer and then
they dated publicly, met all his friends and his sister
because he done told family and friends. They on the

(01:06:55):
outs he's tired of her. She's demanding there on the outs,
he's looking. He wants to be happy. So all of
them is okay because he's the position. He's been providing
for the family for a number of years. So the
af and the dog came out, and then his friends
just believe whatever he says because they're his boy. He's
an avid golfer in his spare time, and he usually
stays at the resort where he golfs on the weekend.

Speaker 1 (01:07:17):
That's not true.

Speaker 5 (01:07:18):
No one gets a golf membership in the town way
away from where they stay, or they gotta go spend
the night. You go play golf, you have drinks at
the nineteenth Hold with you buddys, and you take your
hands home. So every weekend he's at home with his
wife because she knows he doesn't have practice during the weekend.
So now his wife thinks he's just coming home and
doing the week When he's spend the night at his condo,

(01:07:40):
it's gonna can be closer to the hospital.

Speaker 1 (01:07:42):
Ba da da da da da da da.

Speaker 5 (01:07:44):
I had no idea he was married, since he spent
most of his nights where he's in the medical practices.
Two weeks ago, he decided to go to the wharf
and I have a nice dinner with another couple.

Speaker 1 (01:07:54):
Got excited because he thought he was gonna marry. They
sit there having dinner.

Speaker 5 (01:07:57):
Woman walks in with a bonnet and a tracksuit tells
him to get up and come with her. He squeezed
her hand under the table, smiles at her. Tell the dude, hey, man,
make sure she get home safe and paid the check.
I got up and said, hey, what's going on? She
advised me to sit back down. She said, if you
don't sit your black ass back down, you ain't gonna
see tomorrow, garden tool, That's what she said. I sat

(01:08:24):
back down, and a woman at the table told me
that was Jim's wife. Well, Jim and I have created
life together and he hasn't reached out to me in
almost two weeks.

Speaker 1 (01:08:31):
What do I do now?

Speaker 6 (01:08:32):
The roosts is over.

Speaker 5 (01:08:34):
The fiasco has fallen apart, and the only reason it
fell apart that night was caused the dumb ass physician
took you to a restaurant that he frequents often, and
everybody know him and know his wife, and one of
the waiters and the waitresses called his wife and said,
your damn husband down here with another moment.

Speaker 1 (01:08:56):
She got dressed right quick, came down there, and you luck.
The only reason you like this letter is because it's
about golf too.

Speaker 9 (01:09:09):
We'll be back with more of the Steve Harvey Morning
Show at the top of the hour.

Speaker 10 (01:09:12):

We'll have some closing remarks from the one and only
Steve Harvey at forty nine minutes after, and it'll be
our last break of the day.

Speaker 1 (01:19:10):
Right after this, you're listening.

Speaker 4 (01:19:12):
Steve Harvey Morning Show.

Speaker 10 (01:19:14):
All right, Steve, we are at the crossroads.

Speaker 9 (01:19:17):
I guess you can say the last break of the
day and time for you with your closing remarks.

Speaker 5 (01:19:23):
You know, I think everybody can relate to what I'm
about to say. I always use myself as the primary
example of all my motivational moments and speeches, because I mean,
who better than yourself? I mean, you know, when you've
experienced something that's quite a up when you explaining it

(01:19:48):
to someone, you know, it's like, you know, hard to
have a golf instructor and the guy that's instructing you
to play golf has never played golf. Or you can't
have a swimming instructor and the swimming instructure don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:20:01):
How to swim.

Speaker 5 (01:20:02):
It just doesn't make that much sense. I guess you
could do it, but what do they know about it?
So I try to use my own shortcomings or missteps
in life happenings to try to motivate everybody.

Speaker 1 (01:20:17):
As I see it.

Speaker 5 (01:20:19):
One of the things that I've always been pretty good at,
and I'm having to pay attention closely again, is my
acceptance of God's will. You know, it's a funny thing, man,

(01:20:39):
but when you really really understand how life.

Speaker 1 (01:20:43):
Really really works, everything is in order.

Speaker 5 (01:20:46):
Even some of the challenges and tests that you're facing
is for a purpose, a reason. You're not having a
hardship in your life or a moment of challenging in
your life because it just happens upon you.

Speaker 1 (01:21:05):
No, there's some value in it.

Speaker 5 (01:21:06):
Bishop Jakes was on my show and he said, beyond
every moment of pain, pain always leaves a present behind,
a gift, something for you to unbox, unwrap and learn
from it, grow from it, become better for it, become
experienced from it. And that's the gift that it always leaves.

(01:21:27):
One thing I've learned to accept is God's will. It's funny, man,
But on my Instagram, I was looking at my vault
Instagram where I was, you know, learning some things about.

Speaker 1 (01:21:47):
I was motivating someone on my vault thing.

Speaker 5 (01:21:50):
There was a guy who came to my show and
the brother was up in the crowd and he was
talking about his life and how he you know, how
he wanted to start a company and he was having
trouble with starting the company and it was asking me,
you know what.

Speaker 1 (01:22:12):
I thought about it, And as he told me this
whole company I did.

Speaker 5 (01:22:16):
And then and he was working at a job and
he had just lost his job and been laid off
and everything of that nature.

Speaker 1 (01:22:24):
And he kept looking at me and I said, well, hey, man,
let me ask you a question. I said, what what.

Speaker 5 (01:22:33):
Is your gift? And he said it's cooking? And I said, well,
why are you messing around selling computer ware? And I
told went on to tell him. I said, look, man,
I said, sometimes this layoff that you have and this
is God's way of getting you to move in the
direction that he has for you. I say, you know,

(01:22:56):
I did a video about jumping. I said, but sometimes
you don't jumped. Sometimes you get pushed. I said, because
God is fair. When God wants you to come around
to his way of thinking or seeing his plan, he
can allow for certain things to happen in your life
where you can actually see it the way He's wanted
you to see it all along. And so in his layoff,

(01:23:19):
it caused him to have to think of, Man, now
that I had his free time, what am I to do?

Speaker 1 (01:23:26):
Well?

Speaker 5 (01:23:26):
As I was watching that video today on my vault
in powers Instagram, I'm actually gonna take it off today
and post it on my regular Instagram because I was
really talking to myself at the time that I was
that this video came out was made. It was made

(01:23:47):
months ago, but it was for me to hear myself
and in this time where people are. You know, I
appreciate people's concern. Don't get me wrong, I really really do.
I appreciate people pulling for me in and for in
hoping I'm okay, and I really am okay. I want
everybody to know that I am really, really just fine.

(01:24:08):
It's just I've been pushed into the direction.

Speaker 1 (01:24:11):
That he wants me to go, and that's all it is.
And it's sort of.

Speaker 5 (01:24:17):
Amazing how this whole thing is unfolding because they are,
you know, the haters out there. They gonna say what
they want to say. But Bishop Olma taught me a
valuable lesson. He said, for those that love you, no
explanation necessary. For those that hate you, no explanation acceptable.
So I've learned to stop talking to haters because nothing
I can say to them is going to change their mind.

(01:24:38):
They just want to be where they are, but being
in a great place because God has something in store
for you. Remember this always, y'all. When the door closes
the only reason, if you are a personal faith that
God allows the door to be closed in your face
on you because He got another one he wants you

(01:24:59):
to go through. That's the only reason God didn't bring
you this father to leave you. God really does love you.
God really has your best interests at heart. And what
some men do for evil, God does for good. So
somebody can plot against you, but Isaiah fifty four seventeen

(01:25:20):
is pretty clear. No weapon for him against me shall prosper.
It never has in the past, it never will in
the future. God's promises never comes back void. He does
not make a promise, and it's an empty promise. And
if you believe that, that's how you live, and that's
how I live, and I strongly give that to everybody.

Speaker 1 (01:25:40):
Don't worry about it, y'all.

Speaker 5 (01:25:41):
Keep your head up because God got you, just like
he always has. Those are my remarks today.

Speaker 1 (01:25:49):
Drop drop the knowledge and the mic.
