Hey, Hey, I'm back with something for you to think about. I hope everyone is doing well. You, your family, your friends. I hope everyone is doing well. I wanted to talk about something today, and I tell you I have a heavy heart because I've been listening to different situations and it really saddens me that people feel as if they don't wanna go on with life. People feel that they're at the end of their robes. And now I talked a little bit about suicide a d just a little while ago,
maybe a week or two weeks or something like that. Time goes so fast you can hardly keep up. But I'm not in particularly talking about suicide. I'm just talking about pep people who just feel that they cannot move from that old place to something and somewhere better. You have to be willing to let go. That's the bottom line. You must be willing to let go. Nothing is that bad. I know people have been in some horrendous situations.
They have been in some very very awful and traumatic situations. I mean, just unthinkable things have happened to people. But but what I want people to understand is you went through what you went through. It's done. Where people fail themselves. Is when they keep carrying the pain as if the still live in that situation. You must be willing to go. You must be willing to let go. The reason so many do not become better mentally is
because they are in the same place. They are living vicious cycles over and over and over and over again, because they're holding on to those memories and they have given power to those memories that have turned into those thoughts that you keep reliving day in day out. You have to be willing to let go. It does not matter what you went through or how traumatic it may have been. You have to leave that stuff behind. I'm not saying you won't
forget. I'm not saying that I'm not saying that you will forget. But if you don't forget them those things, if you don't forget them, what happens is if you're not giving power to those memories and thoughts, what is going on is they lessen they've saved, some of them will go away altogether. What they will never do that when you keep fueling the fire, when you continue to give power to those memories and that forms those thoughts, you
are feeling the fire. The more you give power to them. The more power and control your memories and thoughts have over you and your life because you have gave your power to those things. So many people are at the end of their road when they don't have to be. That is what really, really, really sits hard. It's tough for me because I love people, and I know no one on the face of the earth have to live with depression. And you know anxiety and thoughts of harming themselves are harming others.
No one, but the power you give to your thoughts, they will consume you. I actually cried when I heard about this man who had thought about killing up a lot of people, but instead of killing people, he just killed himself and wrote a note to say he wasn't a killer. That touched me so deeply. Although his life was lost, he took his own life. That still touched me because it didn't have to get to that point.
When you know that you have unresolved issues and you do not handle those issues, you do not heal from those issues so you can move on, you remain the same, and you remain that same person full of self doubt, self neglect, self hate, self loath, insecurities, fear, believe in things, that are not true. You're so worried about you don't have support, No one loves you, no one likes you. You should never think like that because this is your life. It's not the other person's life.
It is your life, and therefore or you have the opportunity to make it the best that you can. People complaining, Oh, it's hard, it's hard out there, it's hard trying to make it. Yes, it's hard for everyone. But you still can make it if you choose to. And I can say that because I, at one point in my life with two little kids, struggled, but I paid every bill. I made it work because I always chose home. I didn't think about other things spending my money
foolishly. I thought about home and my children. So you have to get your priorities right. When you don't have your priorities right, then it messes up everything else. You spend bill money knowing you need to pay your bills. That cause of stress, so much stress, financial stress. But people keep doing it instead of choosing to be better. Individuals have all of these things inside that they're holding on to. Your mom didn't love you, your
dad didn't love you. They talked about you, they beat you, They abuse you in every single way possible. This and that you're holding on to those things and you're an adult, you're still angry as an adult when you could have let that mess go. Anytime someone hurts you, whether past or present, it's because of that individual and their own unresolved issues. You can not take ownership of their pain. You cannot allow yourself to be a victim
to their pain. When we were kids, and for those who have gone through situations, bad situations, traumatic situations, bad experiences, however you want to label them. When we were children, little kids, we didn't have control over a lot of things. But as you progress through life, you have to make a decision. This is my life. I came from hell. I'm not going to keep going through it. I want to make it better. I want things to be different. You have to choose that for
yourself, but so many people don't. They don't choose better. But what they do is they continue down the same road and then they get into relationships with people who are similar to them. When I say similar, I mean with the same problems, such as unresolved issues that's plaguing them. So when you get involved with someone who has their own unresolved issues. You're gonna have nothing but friction in your relationship. Your relationship is going to be plagued with
chaos and drama. So you power all of that on top of what's already bothering you. Then you get jobs and you have a bunch of people in the workplace who have unresolved issues. We can have it in the workplace from the top down. Then you take in that makes your life even worse. I mean, you go through life just powering, powering, powering the problems of others onto your own unresolved issues. You keep taking other people problems and
bringing them into your life as if they were yours. If a person don't like you, so what if they don't support you, so what? If they don't love you, So what if they don't want you? So what? You never ever have to take disrespect from anyone. You can handle a situation in a nice way, but yet in a way where they get the point. You never have to be anyone's toilet, meaning you don't have to let people just dump on you with nonsense and negativity. You do not,
you do not. You don't have to entertain foolishness, You don't have to be that individual that's easily brainwashed and influenced because you have all of those insecurities inside of you. Anything that sounds good or looks good, you're willing to follow. No one has to be like that. So when people go through life with all of these issues, and not only your own, you're taking on the problems of other people. You're taking on the behaviors of other people.
When I say you're taking on those things, I mean you are allowing them to affect your life negatively. And all it does is pushes you further and further down. Your soul is more and more vexed. You're in that dark place. This is what happens when you allow people and things to drain you of your energy. This is what happens when you do not heal from your past pains. All of the current pain and those things that you allow people to bring into your life, they affect you because the mindset is not
in a healthy place from the start. That's why I tell you all your storms is not the problem. They may be something, but they're not the problem. That's Your storm is not why you can't get through the storm. The problem is your mindset entering into the storm. When your mindset is not in a good place entering into the storm, you're gonna have a hard time in the storm. You're gonna have a hard time. You're gonna make that storm way worse than it has to be because of the mindset that you had
going into it. It's harder for people to see their way. But people don't understand this. That's why I tell you all of the time. Your mindset is everything. If your mindset is not right, your soul is not at peace. Your soul is restless. There is no way you have peace within your soul when you have hate in you, when you're jealous and envious, when you are full of toxicity and negativity. There's no way on earth your soul is at peace. People, you have to let it go.
You have to stop giving power to people who have hurt you, because those people someone hurt them, Those people that hurt you, they were powerless people. They seemed powerful in your life at some point, but really they weren't. They were not. They were not, But in your mind, you have given them so much power to continue to hurt you, even though you're not even in it anymore. You're not in the tragedy, the trauma, the bad experience. You're not even in it anymore. But now you're creating
your own because of your self inflicted pain because you won't let go. You won't let go, and it saddens me because my heart is very sincere. I love people, and I know people are strong. I mean I see it all around me every single day. I know people are struggling. I know they are. But I also know, without a shadow of a doubt, no one on the face of the earth has to get to that point of no return or that point where they're so barbed down that they end up
losing their mind. No one, no one. Whatever you open yourself up to is exactly what you're going to get. Let me say it again, and I want to make it clear. Whatever you open yourself up to is exactly what you're going to get. If you keep giving power to your past, it's going to affect you. It's not the past, it's the memories of the past that you've given power to as if the past is still in exact when it's not. You gotta think about what I'm saying. Don't just
hear me, understand, Let it resonate deep within you. Your life can be better, but you have to want it. When you start getting those thoughts of your past, say to yourself past, you're no more. I'm not giving any power to you. I was unfortunate. I had a mom that didn't love me. Or I had a mom who abused me. I had a dad who didn't love me. I had a dad who abused me. I had parents that were not in my life no matter the situation, I was chained up, I was abused in every form, no matter the
situation. Stopped giving power to it. It is over. It's the memories that you are keeping fresh through your thoughts, and it's causing you sickness, physical, emotional, mental sickness. We all see it every day when people commit road rage, when people commit murder, when people all forms of murder, suicide, homicides, parents killing their children, children killing their parents, boyfriend killing girlfriend, girlfriend killing boyfriends, husband killing wives, wives killing husband,
people just killing period. We see it. We see it with people who are in relationships who desperately loving someone who don't even love his or herself because they don't know what it is. But you're desperately loving that person being treated like crap. But you still wanna be with him or her. That comes from a bad place within you. And because you're going through so much with that person, you're taking in things as if you're the problem. You're
not the problem. You're a part of the problem. But the biggest issue is your mindset, how you think you can't change him or her. You could only change you. But you're trying to love that person. Half of the time, they don't even deserve you, and they don't know what love is, just like you don't know what it is, because if you did, you wouldn't even put yourself through it. But so many people take that in and then they bring all of that negativity and pile it up and they're
so hurt and devastated. You know, people they fall apart when they're cheated on, They fall apart when people die. That's because you've given so much power to that person when you never should do that. Because one fact is it's a hard pill to swallow, but it is the truth. No one can change it. We all are going to die. Yes, people die suddenly unexpectedly to us, unexpectedly, but God knows people die unexpectedly, and suddenly people can shorten their lives. But one thing for sure, we're all
giving up out of here one of these days. We're all going to die one day. So when people give power to individuals who pass and they just allow it to consume them because they feel they can't live without that person, that's wrong. I'm sorry, but it is. According to the word of God, it's wrong. When you give power to someone that's causing negative in your life, that's never good. I don't care who it is. It's never good. If it's causing negativity in your life in any form, it's
not good. If the person you're with causing negativity in your life is no good for you. If on your job it's pure negativity and causing you stress, it's no good for you. I mean, I can go on and on and on. So what I'm trying to say to you people go through things in life and because of unhealed hearts and mind, they power all of this other stuff on them, And as I said earlier, it just pushes you down further and further and further, and then you feel like you can't
take it anymore. You don't wanna be on this earth, you wanna die, or you're just so unhappy and miserable and stressed out and depressed because you have given your power. That's the only reason why, the only reason why you feel like that you have given your power to someone or something. And it is heartbreaking to me because I know no one have to live this way.
I mean, some people have gone through I mean super traumatic what I've gone through, and I went through some traumatic things, but it's nothing compared to some people. But me, I just refuse to give people my power or anything my power. I just refuse. I don't care. I don't care. I don't care. I'm not saying I'm made of stone. I'm not saying none of that. But what I don't do is give my power to people and too things. I don't care if you don't like me.
I don't care if you don't love me. I don't care if you don't want to hear me. I don't care if you don't want to see me. I don't care if you support me. I don't care at all. And I'm not just talking. I'm telling you what God knows, and I'm telling you what he loves, and that's the truth. I don't care. I stand on my own and with the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Now that's me. Everyone is not like that. But even if you don't believe, you still should believe in yourself. Don't let no one
take that away from you. The ability to believe in yourself, that's what most people do. You give that away to someone who don't deserve it. You let them take that from you, The ability to love yourself, the ability to get to know yourself. You allow someone else to take it from you because you believe all the negativity they say it to you, because you believe you're not worthy, because all the things they've done to you. Stop
giving your power away from this moment forward, Stop it. You're worthy. You're not put on this earth to suffer. You're You're not put on this earth to be turmoil mentally because of past pains or people that you have opened yourself up to and allow into your life that weak have it. That's not what God intended for us. So this has been on my heart and I really wanted to talk about it. You have to let it go and sometimes
gotta keep it real. You have to let people go. I mean, it don't matter who it is. Sometimes you have to let people go. I never would say stop loving them, because that would be wrong. You love them, but you have to let them go. Let go and let God. I'm just telling you sometimes you have to move on and leave all the drummer in the mess behind. But the problem is people try so desperately to hold on to people who treated them like crap. It makes no sense.
Think about it. You're trying desperately to hold on to someone who's treating you like crapp? What seriously, what's the good in that You're waiting on him to change? You're waiting on her to change? What about you changing? Because they may never change. We all have unexpected things to happen in
our life. But I promise you, when you're in a better mindset, it does not matter what come to you, what tragedy, what unexpected comes, You'll be able to handle it because your mindset is in a better place to receive anything. I'm not saying. Sometimes you you may cry, sometimes you may kind of feel bad, but you'll never stay there. You'll never stay there. When I lost my mom for a split moment, I was like, how do I even live? I'm just being honest with you,
and I still get emotional thinking about my mom. She passed last year, and I really get emotional thinking about my mom because she was a good, good mom. She was so unique. Anybody that knew her would tell you she was so unique. She's the only person I know in the world that was never disrespected. I don't know anyone who ever disrespected my mom. And that's the god honest truth. And she was close to all of her children. So I miss my mom. But my mom didn't do anything special.
She took a journey that I gotta take one day, you gotta take, we all must take. Did it hurt me? Yes, it slammed me straight to the floor for a moment, But then I remembered who I loved the most, and that's my father in heaven. And you know what, I mentioned this before on episodes. I told my mom that before she she died. It was it was a while before she died, maybe a few
years. We were having a conversation and I said, I loved you so much, cause my mom, ever since I could remember, always told us all she love us. And I said, I love you so much. I said, but I love God more. I loved Jesus more. And she was like quiet for a second, and then she said, oh, I can understand. That's the connection you have to have with the father and the son. So I missed my mom. I do. I love her.
I miss her so much, but I don't get caught up in trying to talk to her every day, looking at her picture and trying to you know, talk to her and you know, got the little what you call them set up in the house for her. I don't do none of that. I don't worship my dad Mama. I don't celebrate her birthday because she don't have any more birthdays. When she died, she had no more birthdays.
You could say a person would be this certain age if they were living, but to say happy birthday, mom or dad or whoever, No, that's wrong because they don't have any more birthdays. The last birthday had they had is when they died. Prior to when they died, some people died on their birthday. You get what I'm saying. That's the last birthday they had it will ever have. So I don't get into none of that. Even though I miss my mom and I loved my mom. She was the
best. But for a split second, because my face was to the ground, I felt like, I don't know, how do you live without your mom? Because the connection was so strong, and when she passed, it was like I could feel I cannot explain it, but it felt like I felt something taken from me. It was so bizarre, But I got myself together. I remember who I belonged to, and even though I get sad sometimes thinking about her, missing her, I don't stay there. You just
can't give power to anything or anyone. You just can't because it will put you in a dark place, and darkness belongs to the devil. That's what the devil wants. He wants your mind all jacked up. He wants you hate in yourself. He wants you hate in others. He wants you to be embassy and jealous of people and not understanding it's not even about them, it's about you and how you feel about yourself. But the devil wants you
to think like that. So until people start understanding that, they you your mindset is your worst enemy, and you have become a prisoner to your own mindset. Until people understand that and do something about it, we're gonna continue to see what we've been seeing, and worse things are getting worse. People are not showing love. I mean, it's crazy. This world is crazy because of the people in it, but that's because of unhealed hearts and minds.
I believe it. I believe it. I believe it. Until people choose change, things are going to remain the same. That's why we are all need Jesus. We all need God. We need him. Whether you think you're do or not, we need him. So again, I just wanted to talk about this. It was on my hunt. I hope someone gets something out of it. And listen. If you need to talk, please reach out to me. Reach out to me. I will even give
you my phone number if you need to talk. I really would. I can't talk to everyone, but I will answer emails and like I said, if a person really, really, really really need to talk, I will give you my number because I do have a business line as well. So I love each and every one of you, appreciate you all. I just want you to know your life can be better. You can live a beautiful life. You can live that life with peace that surpasses all understanding. But
you must want it. You gotta let it go. You gotta let things go that mean you no good. You have to let people go. That means you no good. You can't hold on to those memories because they benefit you none. Look what they're causing in your life. You're going out committing road range because you angry because of what's inside of you. That's why you're committing road range. That's why you're so angry when you go outside to drive,
because of what's inside. The reason you get all those negative thoughts because of what's inside. The reason you hate because of what's inside, The reason you have self doubt, lack of many things, the inability to love so many things because of what's inside. Until you deal with what's inside, heal and let it go, nothing changes. And I'm leaving it right there. Thank you for listening again. Much love to each and every one of you.
