Y'all know what time of y'all don't know, y'all back a suit on, looking back to back down, giving them like Amallian buck things and it's not doing me true good it Steve Hart to move together for Steve hard Please, Mommy, I don't join ya joining me. You gotta use that turn. You gotta turn to turn them out. Turn't got to turn them out. Then turn the water the water ya come, come on your backdat it? Uh huh? I sure will come on everybody, y'all listen to the voice, Come on dig me now, one and only Steve Harvey. Uh how the radio show yep, yep? Sometimes saw all I can say yelp, Man, how far I've come is really unbelievable. But you know I finally figured it out. Man. God allowed me to have the life I've had so that I can become experienced at so many different things. And then this experience when I'm talking and sharing with people, I will be able to relate to a lot of different circumstances, not exact, but just the circumstances. You know. You know if a person comes to me and they say, man, I've been down and out, Okay, well I know what that is? Man, I didn't I didn't have any direction. Okay, got that been there? Man at one point in time, Man, I just kept pile a mistake on top of mistakes. Okay. So you know, I think what I'm trying to say to everybody is when you're going through life and life is dealing the cards that it deals, I want you to understand that life deals everybody these cards. The disappointment card, the setback card, the failure card, the mishap card, the unexpected misery card. Everybody gonna get, the grief card, everybody gonna get, the rash of bad decision card, everybody gonna get them. Understand that going in that everybody is gonna get these cards. It's how you play them, though, you know, from time to time, one more time, it's how you play them, you know. From time to time when I'm watching TV, I love to watch the World Series of Poker. I like watching poker tournaments on TV because it's it's really weird, what's happened to a sport? To a poker? They're actually trying to call it a sport, you know, And as the everyday guy that doesn't have to be athletically inclined to anything who has a shot of winning a title if they play their cards right. The best poker players in the world don't have the best hands, They just make the best plays. I've seen guys win a hand with nine two in their hand as nothing and win their hand because they knew the bluff, they knew the odds, they calculated risks, they made the stakes higher than the other person was willing to pay. They gave off the illusion that they had something with an actuality. They had nothing. So what I what I enjoy about poker and watching it is that these people, these people here, played the hand they dealt, and it ain't always a good hand. But it ain't whether your hand is good. And it ain't whether you're gonna get dealt bad cards or not. Because you're gonna get dealt some bad cards. Everybody ain't gonna get two bullets in their hand. You ain't gonna get two aces when you get dealt. Uh. You know, when you play a draw poker, some of your cards gonna be nothing. But you got to turn that nothing into something. So when you get dealt these cards in life, it ain't the fact that you get keep getting them dealt I was talking with a young person yesterday and we were talking and we keep having the same conversation over and over and over, and they could not understand why they were not moving forward. But I said, you don't understand. Every time we talk we have the exact same conversation. It is simply because you keep getting your cards and you playing them the same way. See, until you make a conscientious different, the conscious decision to do something different, the results will continue to be the same. See here's the way this works. When you're dealt to disappointments in life, it's how you handle the disappointments that determine the outcome and who you are. Because everybody gonna be disappointment. Everybody gonna lose a love one, Everybody gonna make a bad decision. Everybody gonna end wake up one morning they have done something they regretted. Everybody gonna get caught at the wrong time. Every everybody gonna make a mistake. It ain't just you. That is how you play your cards when they get dealt to you. That determine who you are. Na how do I play my cards better? First of all, it's a mindset. Quit looking at everything as just the end when it happens to you. Oh lord, woe is me? Nah, everybody got your circumstances somewhere. It ain't old. Woe is me. It's hold on, man, Okay, let me play this out to see how God then connected this to something else. See. As soon as a person have a setback, what's the first thing A lot of people do, they go straight negative. I can't see him to get a break. I can't see him move forward. Hold on, man, do you realize this could be connected to something? See, you got to understand, man, that this thing is all connected. That you're not having these mishaps and these spills and accidents and falls for no reason. It's so you can become experienced at them. So when he takes you to the next level, when it happens again, you have no how and how to handle it. If you keep throwing yourself off the cliff every time something happened, you're just gonna be a cliff diver. Man, Stop tripping yourself out. I was talking to this young person, I kept saying, and you know what they try to tell me. I'm trying to stay positive, but the people around here, they're just killing that. Oh I see So when you learn something and you know something, you don't take ownership of it. You allow other people to come into what you know and believe and shake it loose from you. I don't care who you are. You're not doing me like that. Here's a deal. I have a gift that was given to me from God. That is the gift of comedy. That's what I've done. I've made the bulk of my living on that skill set. Right there. That are comedians who are supposedly friends of mine, who I've worked with, who get around in huddles with one another and they say, man, Steve really ain't funny. I don't see what they'd be laughing at. He ain't funny to me. He wasn't the funniest king to me. Excuse me, you're irrelevant in this conversation because it regardless as to how you feel about me. That are people think that I'm knocked down kill over funny. But more importantly, I own the gift that God gave to me. I take ownership of his blessing. Because you don't think it, so, you ain't taking that from me. Stop letting people steal your joy, letting people take what you're supposed to know. Look, I'm a I'm a I'm a I'm a kind person at heart. Man. You ain't nothing now, you said if it're going, Man, I guess I ain't what you're tripping for. You are a kind person, own that take ownership of it. Stop letting things God has given you be taken away from others. The devil is a cold player, and he got cold players working for him, just shaking, just taking stuff from you. You know, I'm a hard worker. I really am intelligent. You stupid man. I thought I was a hard worker. Man. They came in here and said I was stupid. Man, I don't know what I'm doing wrong. What excuse me? You're a very bright person. Hey, y'all take ownership. When God gives you something, blesses you would have gifted talent, a skill set, a mindset. Own it. Don't let people come in here and take it from you. Man, Okay, I probably shouldn't do with it.

And if you need any advice on relationships, dating, work, sex, parenting and more, submit your Strawberry Letter to Steve Harvey FM dot com and click submit Strawberry Letter, Right Steve, Yeah, step up to the mic. No, yeah, wasn't buddle up? Hold on tight? We got it for you. Here. It is the Strawberry Letter. Subject. Is he my kids daddy or granddaddy? Dear Stephen Shirley, As nephew Tommy would say, buckle up and hold on tight. He just said for real this time. There's no easy way to explain my situation. I am a twenty eight year old married woman. I married my high school sweetheart and we have six kids. But I'm not sure who my father. Who my kid's father is here's why. Ten years ago, I lost my parents in a bad accident, and living without them was unbearable for me. I started drinking, partying, and having sex all of the time with different men. I was a mess. My boyfriend had no idea about my secret sex life. One night, when I was drunk, I went to my boyfriend's house looking for him and ended up having sex with his father. His dad and I had amazing sexual chemistry, so we continue to have sex for years. I got pregnant with my first child, and my boyfriend and I got married. Since i've been married, I've only had sex with my husband and his dad. I do not use protection with my husband, and I do not use protection with his dad. Recently, my husband's dad and I ended our affair because it was getting harder to sneak around. I also stopped drinking and decided to get my life together so I can be a better wife and a great mom. But the first thing I need to do is figure out who the daddy of each of my kids. Who is the daddy of each one of my kids? Is it my husband or is it his father. I love my husband dearly and I don't want to lose him. His love and support got me through the worst part of my life. I need to tell him about my affair with his dad, and I need to get him to do a DNA test. My kids deserve to know who their dad is, right, But I don't want to ruin the relationship that my husband has with his dad. So how do I approach this? Please help? Well, yeah, yeah, this is one of those moments. Yeah, you're going to ruin the relationship. I mean, no doubt about it. If you tell there's you're going to do that. I mean, so don't even I don't even know why you put that in the letter, because that's definitely going to happen. You know, I'm sorry that you lost your parents, your parents ten years ago. You know. That's why they have counseling and stuff like that, so people can work on those kinds of issues and not use drinking and sex and things like that to get through it. That's what you did, That's what happened. This is really crazy. Um, I'm glad you've changed your life around, but boy, have you left just a trail of mess behind, just a trail. What I don't understand is why you kept sleeping with both of them, both your dad, his dad and your husband, the dad's son. Why why did you keep doing it for so long? You said you did it for years, And why were you doing it with no protection? Because you know when you do it with no protection, you can get pregnant or get a disease or something. I mean, that was just dumb. I don't think you should tell. I just don't. I mean, I mean, no, there there are times, you know, when when this applies, and I just think there's one of them. I just think this is a secret you're going to have to take to your grave, because there's no way if you do tell, you're not going to ruin their relationship. This is just because of your past behavior. This is just one of those burdens you have to carry, and you got to carry it to your grave as far as I'm concerned, Steve, First of all, system you've made a series of bad mistakes and you just got to eat him. But now this moment that you're having in this letter, I need to tell him talking about your husband, I love my husband dearly and I don't want to lose him. His love and support got me through the worst part of my life. I need to tell him about my affair with his dad, and I need him to get him to do a DNA test. My kids deserve to know who their dad is, right, But I don't want to ruin a relationship that my husband has with his dad. So how do I approach this? Please help? There's nothing to approach you. You've made a series of mistakes, horrible mistakes. You're not the only one to blame here. This man's your husband's father, has a world of responsibility to bear up under this. How could you do this to your son? That's a big issue too, How could you do this to your son? See, now here's the messed up part. You're the only one getting everything you want, young lady. You're the only one getting everything you want. You got your husband, you got your affair, you got your kids, you got all this. Now, you ain't saying you ain't had no troubles in your life. You have, but you've compounded them with some other decisions too. For now, and then the father in law, this man you have an affair with, he getting everything he won't. He got grandkids, he got his son, he got his daughter in law, he got a chick on the side, he coup that's trifle. So you and him have been the only ones getting exactly what you knew you were getting. Let's look at the lives who don't know what they was getting. Your kids don't know who they dog on daddy is not really But then it's really not a question for them right now because they're just assuming that's my daddy. If you take that from them, what have you done? This ain't the time to run your mouth. This is the one time Sherilly then got this straight. No, really, really, you always recommended telling the truth, and now you saying live a lie, and this is when you have to live the lie because she's destroying families. If it's okay, Shelly, you've always said you should tell the truth. It's okay. That's your hat. You hear though, You hear what you're wanting here, that's what you say, Shelly, Shirley. Just my turn with the letter name name, it's the Strawberry Letter. We'll be back. You're listening, all right, Steve, come on with part two of your response to today's Strawberry Letters. Subject is he my kids daddy or granddaddy? Now, this is the Strawberry letter. I've been asked by my co host to keep her name out of my mouth when I'm doing I'm finding that increasing difficult. But let's just reiterate this twenty one year old married woman married to a high school sweetheart, got six kids. Ten years ago. She lost my parents in a bad accident. She started drinking the health, sex with all kinds of men. One time she went over to the house looking for a boyfriend, he wasn't there. She wounded up having sex with his daddy. They've continued to have this fair even though they've gotten married. She has always kept an affair going with her husband's father. Now she got six kids, and she don't know whose kids they are, so she wants to go have a DNA test, so she wants to stop drinking. She stopped drinking and decided to get her life together so she can be a better wife and a great mom. She said, But the first thing I need to do is figure out who is the daddy of each one of my kids. Is it my husband or is it his father. I love my husband dearly and I don't want to lose him. You're about to. His love and support got me through the worst part of my life, and this is how you repain. I need to tell him about my affair with his dad, and I need him to go get to a DNA test. You're gonna go tell your husband about to a fair you've been having with his daddy. Now, I just told you you're gonna ruin these kids' lives because these kids only know your husband as they dad, and they know Grandpa as their grandfather. You're gonna go in there and rearrange that, but you don't want to lose your husband. This is exactly how you lose your husband. You're running out, running your mouth with disinformation right here. The best thing you could do is stop seeing his old man, ask God for forgiveness and going to get your life together. If you do decide to go in there and tell, which would be the dumbest thing you can do, You're going to ruin the kids' lives. Your husband his father's son relationship will be damaged, possibly beyond repair. Your life will suffer because you won't have this husband anymore. Then you won't have their fair. You had it with and I got something else you haven't thought of. Your relationship with your children could be damaged by this because when they get old and finally figure out what it is you did. That's gonna be a tough one. So you're talking at this point doesn't make any sense to me at all. None. And once again I'm gonna say this though my co host has gotten it right by telling you to stand down and shut your mouth. I have promoted lying since we got on this show. That's the biggest promoter of truth telling. I have told her sometimes the reason me and lie is because if we know the truth ain't gonna go good, we will give you a lie. In state. This is one of those situations where the truth ain't gonna go good. There's no good can come out to trait. I agree nothing. And finally I got her to understand why lying is necessary. Yeah, you can't. He'll destroy everything and everyone. It shouldn't have been written. Yeah, but she's feeling guilty. That's what she feeling, all kinds of guilt since she's changed. Yeah, she's That's one thing she's gonna have to do. She may need a lie therapy after all, you know, Yeah, to deal with all of this, because she's dealt with a lot. When you do tell them, do the kids say granddadda daddy is a legitimate everyone. So he is your brother, really your niece or you? What do I call a kid? What the kids going through? Get them? No, I was gonna say something reasonable. Oh, okay, technically the kids will always be brother and sisters because they share the same mother. Yeah, so technically they always be. Now if you get rid of the technicality, here we go, Uncle, you're gonna have a damn problem because somebody over there is gonna have to be somebody daddy. This, one of them bars is gonna be on and one of them girls gonna be somebody aunt. But all of mistake, cousins, you gonna have to be the nieto. He has to get in roll call at the family union. Gonna have a lot of people standing up with the same damn title. And you can have multiple titles in this family with all the sons of Walter stand up. Now when all the sons of Walter Junior? All right, Steve, we gotta get out of here. Email us that Strawberry letter, my girl, Shirley, you're listening to the Steve Morning Show.

They just want to see if they can run their little situation and make it work out. You know. And a lot of women are playing the game now, so a lot of people do think it's a game. It sounds to me like you're justifying all this line that you No, I'm not justifying nothing, but a lot of people think it's a game. Me and the women now treat dating like a game. That's why so many that's why families just broken, the everybody everything jacked up now because TV show man that Catfish, that's unbelievable to me. Three years online with a person. Didn't you going to meet him? But I'm in a damn stranger Connor caught him playing. Man. This little dude, good looking, little black kid was on Catfish. I went to see this girl when it. Man, you should have seen this girl. Dog, I ain't gonna lie to you. Dog. I whooped the dude on Catfish. Man. I whipped his ass while I swear to God out of star because they know what the person looked like. This big girl came to this dope man. It was lying to my She not hell come back later. And the little dude, good looking, little black dude, I couldn't understand it. Man, where you he got to have plenty girl friends back in Saint Louis. You're then caught just playing down him. That little dude looks on But she finally came clean and said it was me, But she looked like George Wallace, Mama, it was right, Steve coming up closing remarks right after this. You're listening here, we are last break of the day, Steve. This time is for you to just leave us with something we can go through the rest of the day with. With your closing remarks and what do you have for us today, sir? Well, you know, just something I've had to learn. But I have to constantly, constantly remind myself of it all the time. And that is something that Bishop Kenneth Olma taught me. He taught me something I was going through, something I was being attacked, I thought rather unfailed with a bunch of vicious lies. And what I was about to do was I had a plan of a counter attack. I'm gonna go I'm gonna say something. I'm gonna set the record straight. Bishop Olma called me justin and nick of time. I was about to make a call to a reporter. I was about to to make a call to a reporter. I was about to just set the record straight, and Bishop Woman said something to me that changed my direction. He says, Steve, stay on the wall. Stay on the wall. It's actually a scripture. I don't know which one it is, but it's something to the effect of stay on the wall. But what he explained to me was very simple. You are in a certain position in life. God has allowed you to climb, endue, overcome, survive and thrive. At a certain point in life, when people beneath you start throwing rocks up at you, when people on the floor start attacking you, saying stuff about you that ain't true, it is in your best interests to stay on the wall. Do not climb down off the wall to address this small stuff. When God has put you up there on the side of the hill, you halfway up the mountain, but you're gonna come back down to the bottom of the mountain because somebody was hauling insults up there, So now you come all halfway back down the mountain to address them. Why now you got to go all the way back up there when all you had to do, Steve Harvey was stay on the wall when all you had to do was stay on that side of the mountain that God had allowed you to get to, get on that plateau and take yourself a rest. But stay on the wall, stay on the mountain side. Don't come off to address these people that's throwing rocks at you. Drake and Meek decided to quit coming off the wall. It makes no sense. Cardie B and Nicki Minaj, you're on the wall. Why do you keep getting off the wall to address these small minded matters and people. I'm telling you, man, just because you're famous don't make you the smartest people in the room. We're not just because we're famous people. We make mistakes too, because guess what, famous people are happened to be human beings. They just got more people know they faced and know yours. They not know better than you. They're not smarter than you. They're not kinder than you. They're not deeper than you. It's none of that. They may have seen a few more things, been a few more places. But guess what if you don't adjust your thinking and you keep coming down off the wall, don't those rich, wealthy, famous people look real common to you, and don't it kind of make you just a little bit of shame sometime when you look over there and you see somebody that you clearly know that God has blessed and allowed to get to a certain position in life, And don't it sicken you just a little bit when you look over there and they back down off the wall, acting like somebody that ain't never been up on the wall. I don't want to be that person, Nicki Minaj, really don't want to be that person. Cardi b You don't really want to be that person, because we're just defeating the purpose of climbing anyway. You can't climb the wall or the ladder and keep getting off every time somebody throw a rock at you. At one point in time, you gotta keep your foot on the ladder and keep climbing. At one point time, you just gotta stay on the wall quick coming back down. The best lesson I learned was not to address everything that's said about me. Do you know how much stuff gets said about me? Man that I could easily straighten out. I don't even take the time too straighten it out, because what I'm on a mission. God got me on a mission. God got you on the mission. God trying to show you something man, and God can't show it to you if you're gonna keep acting regular, Why would God do something extraordinary for you? If you just want to be ordinary? Why would God give you more? If you ain't appreciative of what you have? Why would God take you high if you keep climbing back down? Just ask yourself that So one of the things I had to come away with quick coming off that wall, to address stuff. And that's what I want everybody to consider today. And sometimes let famous people be your example. And what are the great examples? Was over this weekend Drake and Meek Meal, they hugged, they squashed the beef. It's plenty of money for everybody. Drake not gonna get it all, Meek not gonna get it all. Card ain't gonna get it all. Nicki Minaj ain't gonna get it all. Steve Harvey ain't gonna get it at all. Ain't nobody gonna get it all. It's plenty for everybody. Make your money, stay on the wall, live your life as a righteous person, do the best you can. Stay prayed up, because we all gonna fall shorter to glory at the end. All right, those are my clothes remarks? Why you ain't say, Steve Harvey ain't gonna get it all time, ain't gonna get it out? Why you ain't say that? I didn't. I didn't want to compare me in you. But we're a good comparison. This is such an obvious one. It doesn't really drop the mic. Steve, Well, he always got to drop the mic. Why don't get to drop the mic? You ain't never said nothing that shut up? Julian, what you're gonna mess around? Had a mic fall on you? Bye? Thank you for all, Steve. Every contest no purchase necessary, void where prohibited.
