Speaker 1 (00:00):
We are put here on earth to not just serve ourselves,
but to help others, to be a light for others.
We're not put here to be selfish. Now because you
hear me talking about self care. Now there is a
perspective or a version of selfish and self care. If
(00:23):
that's not the kind of selfish I'm talking about. I'm
talking about when you try to get everything just for
you and to heck with everybody else, when you got
to take, you feel like it's an in some game,
it's a zero sum game that in order for you
to have, you have to take from somebody else. There's
enough in the world, there is enough in the universe.
There is enough on the planet for everybody. It's really doue.
(00:47):
It's not a zero some game. People think it's a
zero some game. In order for you, in order for
me to have, I have to take from you. In
order for you to have, you have to take from me.
It's really not that way. If we had the perspective
of it's enough here forever, everybody, everybody ought to be
able to have to be honest with you, we should
not have have notts and havels. We should not have
halves and have nots because there is enough for everyone
(01:12):
to have, but because we get caught up in this
zero sum game that in order for me to be rich,
you have to be poor. In order for me to
be doing good, you have to be doing bad. In
order for me to win, you have to lose. Because
we get so caught up in that. That's why we're
always caught in the issues that we are now. See,
I tell you I've been I've been really trying to
(01:34):
discipline myselfs behind this microphone from not talking about the
nonsense going on in the political arena. But I can
tell you this this, I will tell you. I cannot
tell you who to vote for, and to a certain degree,
I really don't care who you vote for as long
as you vote. But I can tell you right now
I'm voting for Kamala Harris. It's just that simple. I
love her slaws. We are not going back, we are
(01:55):
not going to that nonsense that we had for four
years prior. So I can tell like I said, you
vote for who you want to vote for. If you're
if you're a Trump fan, god bless you. But me
I'm a Kamala fan. So that's what I mean. I
should no more be going crazy and trying to be
rate you per se because you are for Trump, then
(02:15):
you should be able to but rate or try to
make me feel bad because I'm for Kamala. We all
have choices. Now, you can't sit there and browbeat somebody
because see, that's what I don't like about the other side.
They're gonna try, and they tried on January sixth. They're
going to try to make somebody take the candidate they wanted.
Now they didn't win, period. Is that now there's a
chance who knows, I don't know what's gonna happen in November.
(02:36):
May not win again. But you can't sit there now,
Oh we're gonna have a civil war. Oh it's gonna be.
You can't force somebody to be because that's not what
the United States. That's not what America's supposed to be about.
That's what the folks that came over here were leaving.
That's what they were leaving when they left and got
on the Mayflower and all the various boats that we
(02:57):
learned about in history at school. When they got on
the these votes and came on over to the United States,
that's what they were leaving. So for us to sit
here and try to go back to that, to have
a dictator and going to force a candidate to be there,
and if my candidate doesn't win, we're going to have
a war. You know. No, No, that's what we're trying
(03:18):
to get away from. So whoever wins, they went, That's
what the whole process about. You vote, you vote, That's
why we have the opportunity to vote. So I cannot
tell you who to vote for it. I'm not even
going to try to tell you to vote I can
only tell who I'm voting for. It. I don't have
problems in I'm voting for Kamala Harris. Is that period,
It's that simple, Harris Watz, That's who I'm voting for.
You vote for whoever you want for. That's that's the
beauty of being in this country. You can vote for
(03:41):
who you want to vote for, who you believe in,
who your desires are. You have the opportunity to do that.
I have the opportunity to do that. So I have been,
like I said, exhibiting great discipline to not disparish the fool.
But it is what it is, and we shall see
(04:04):
in November. Stuff the technology that we have now is
wonderful for everything. There really is not a better time
to be alive. It's certainly not a better time to
be a student. And I've said this on the air
before and will continue to say it. There is no
excuse for anybody being dumb. Now you might be uninformed,
this might be some things you don't know, but anything
(04:26):
that you want to know, you can find out. Technology
has given that to us. You have at your fingertips
the ability to find out in our devices. They're not
even really phones, they're devices. We call them phones because
phone is one of the features now on my device.
(04:48):
The phone is the least thing that I use on
my iPhone, the phone is the least thing that I use.
I don't know how many apps on here and picture
and everything else, but the phone is the least thing
I use. Truth be told. This device is a handheld computer.
(05:10):
That's what it is. And on that handheld computer, there
is more information on my hand than what used to
fill buildings. It would take buildings and rooms to house
the information that is now in our hands. Literally even
on our watches. I mean the eyewatch is what was
(05:33):
on Dick Tracy when I was a kid, There was
a cartoon Dick Tracy, and Dick Tracy would talk to
his watch and well, that's what we have here with
the eyewatch, with the smart watches now, you know, and
it's on side. But it's amazing how we have all
these smartphones and smart watches and dumb people. That's absolutely amazing. Smartphone,
(05:57):
smart watches smart, this smart appliance is smart. That even
Alexa has manners. I've put that on Facebook the other day.
Whenever I ask Alexa a question in the morning, she'll
start with good morning Mark. That's how Alexa starts if
I ask her a question, the more she'll say good
morning Mark. Again, smarter than some people. I have people
(06:20):
that don't even have sense enough to say good morning.
All right. Artificial intelligence. I don't know why they call
it artificial intelligence, because artificial intelligence, in some respects is
more intelligent than real intelligence. It's absolutely amazing. AI Artificial
intelligence in some respects, not all, but in some respects
(06:42):
is more intelligent than real intelligence. Smart phones, smart appliances,
smart watches, dumb people. Okay, So back to what I
will saying. I utilize my technology to the best of
my bis and the more I can learn about it
the better because technology is a tool. It could be
(07:06):
used positively and negatively. Just like fire. Fire can cook
your meals or fire can burn your house down. It's
the same fire. Okay, fire can kill you or fire
can save you. It's the same fire. So technology is
the same way. You can use technology for good or
you can use technology for evil. I try to use
(07:28):
technology for good as much as I can so in
any event. On YouTube, they have some wonderful prayers they
do that I incorporate into my meditation and prayer routine.
So there's one for the month of August. I guess
this group does one for every month. I don't know,
but I stumbled across the wonderful month of August, my month,
(07:50):
and it says, listen every day on the month of
August to bless your life. So I'm gonna put this
prayer on. It's a half hour that'll take me to
the seven o'clock hour, but just lay back, tune in
and listen. Listen to it. Listen every day of August.
I'm going to tell you again, words have power. What
you write, what you listen to, what you say has power.
We are put here on earth to not just serve ourselves,
but to help others, to be a light for others.
We're not put here to be selfish. Now because you
hear me talking about self care. Now there is a
perspective or a version of selfish and self care. If
(00:23):
