Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Ernie, Oh, my boy, boy Ernie. He is a blue
Crown conyer, and for over thirty years he has looked
over this forest right here in South Charlotte, North Carolina.
Every day Ernie sits inside his beautiful home, overlooking the trees,
the nearby lake, and every bit of the wildlife, peacefully
strolling through such an amazing piece of land. Ernie and

(00:20):
I share the same vision. It's this forest. We both
look into the trees and study the earth below. There's
something absolutely very spiritual going on here. The lyrics to
Ernie's Forest, we both receive an amazing amount of energy.
I put all of my trust and skills as a
student into what he's willing to share with me. These
aren't my words, These are the lyrics from Ernie's Forest,

(00:45):
chapter number four hundred and twenty March thirtieth, twenty twenty four.
There are so many fallen branches in this forest on
the floor. This is a battle for me. Two absolutely
one hund percent different sides. The branches help feed the
soil and give other living insects and animals something to
feed off. Then there's that side of my love for

(01:05):
this forest that wants it to look clean and not cluttered. See.
I like the way that I can take a situation
like this and I can deal with it in other
areas of my life, such as the interviews that I
do for my podcasts. Am I truly sharing what the
listener wants to hear an in depth conversation by taking
out the mistakes? Or should I leave the fallen branches

(01:28):
just like the forest floor to be authentic and real?
Is it okay to let what's natural to stay on
the forested floor or should it be stacked up in
humanized woodpiles because it looks really good in a selfie?
I learn so much from this collection of trees that
it can be used as tools on the other paths

(01:49):
of our everyday life. I want this forest to be
vibrant with life. It knows how to feed its roots.
But what about you? You doing in your everyday world
to either cleanse and over cleanse your path of moving forward?
Or you're pretty much like a real forested floor and

(02:09):
it all falls right there and whatever happens happens. And
if a hiker comes walking through there and there are
no paths, not a favorite walk to take because you
don't know what's beneath the leaves. You don't know what
you can't see. You can assume all you want, but
a forest floor is not going to be nice to
you if you're not familiar with the layout of everything

(02:33):
that has made that collection of trees. It's very true
even in a city park or if you're just taking
a walk through a neighborhood or in an uptown area.
There's something always going on around you. And if you
don't mentally and physically learn from it, then what's the
journey for. It's not about to sit there and say,
oh my god, I'm having a great time. Pull something

(02:54):
from it, Because for you to get where you are
in your moment of now, it wasn't just handed to you.
You earned it. But what did you earn to get there?
I'm marril. These are not my words. These are the
lyrics from Ernie's Forest.
