Y'all know what time of y'all don't know, y'all back a suit on, back to back down, giving them more like theming buck things in its cubs, y'all good it. Steve har listen to movie together for stum hand. Please Moby, I don't join by join me in doing me. Honey. You gotta turn, you gotta turn to turn, got the turnout, then turn the water the water go. Come come on your back. Uh huh, I show will good morning everybody. You're listening to the voice, Come on dig me now one it only Steve Harvey Man got a radio show. Real glad about it too, you know. Um, I hope that God always keeps me in the frame of frame of mind to try to be sharing and try to be motivational, and even when it's not felt or wanted by some people. I have people around me who seem to not benefited off or anything, and I can sit with them and talk to them or take meetings with them to try to encourage them, and for whatever reason, you know, they want to just keep going the way they're going. When you run into people like that, you have to pray for them. You have to just hope that one day that they release the chains on their mind and open up your mind to a new way of thinking. A couple of things I wanted to go over with it. I want you all today in terms of motivation. I want you to be aware of statements or old sayings that have been created that you hear over the course of time, and you may be applying them to your life. And I want you to be careful of some of them because some of these old sayings, man, are not designed for people who are dreamers, are not designed for people who have any aspirations of being extraordinary. These are not designs or sayings that people who want to be extremely successful at anything or have high aspirations to put these sayings into your life. Let me give you an example. Statistics say that's it. That's the one who want you to be careful about statistics, say be very careful of stats. When a person says, you know statistics, say one out of every what see, listen to me. These are things that sound like they're good, sound solid advice, but they're setting you up for failure and you can't adhere yourself to a lot of these sayings that's been passed down from generations and it's not scripture. It ain't in the scripture nowhere that statistics say. It's just some people, and a lot of people who have lost have come up with these sayings to justify why they keep losing or why they lost. When I was arst got started in the business, there were more stand ups around now than it is today because the comedy boom in eighty four eighty five was it was gaining a lot of momentums, comedy clubs, comedy nights everywhere. The statistic that a guy told me I told him I wanted to be on the Johnny Carson Show, the Tonight Show. The guy said, one out of every two thousand comedians ever make it to the Tonight Show. Okay, Now, when he told us that, some of the comedians in the room went, well, wow, man, oh that's rough. Because a guy had also said that there was approximately six thousand comedians in the country at that time. I don't know if it was true. I'm just telling you guy was out there sputing numbers. I have no idea how many it was, but he said one in every two thousand will make it to the Tonight Show. And he let the air out of everybody in the room button be so every night before I went on stage, I used to do this right here, Badama da bada la la la da badampa ba la la la da. That was the tonight theme song. I was young, opening act know where near Hollywood, didn't. I was in Cleveland telling jokes at one night us. But that was my thing because I was bent and determined that if it's one in two thousand, okay, why don't I just be the one? Be careful when people say so statistics say because they are set up to ful failure. If you're gonna adhere to him, see that one in so many, it wann't so many people win the lottery. But if you don't play the lottery, you ain't gonna be the one to hit. Now when the dude hit you go while he was lucky, but he played. Here's another one. Maybe it's not meant to be right. Let's go one step further. I guess it wasn't the Lord's will. Don't you dare blame God for something you may have not done yourself because you didn't get the proper education, because you didn't do the things you were supposed to do, because you didn't stay to the task because you quit, turned around and with the other way. Now, maybe it's not It wasn't the lord's will. These are all statements that sound like sound advice, but they ain't all the time, got nothing to do with you. Stop letting these old fogy sayings get in your way of what can happen in your life. Don't put all your eggs in one basket? Who came up with this? Who came up with the If you don't pour all your efforts into one thing, how are you gonna be great at that one thing? If Kobe Bryant, Michael Jordans, Magic Johnson, Larry Bird had not played basketball sun up to sundown, Magic Johnson didn't go to of Michigan to get an education. Land Burry didn't go to Indiana to get an education. These casts was balling. Michael Jordan didn't go to North Carolina to get an education. They went to play ball. They went to do one thing. Tiger Woods didn't go to Stanford to get an education. He went to play golf. Soon as he got good enough, he'd gone. These are guys that put all their eggs in one basket. See what's cool with putting all your eggs in one basket. Is you now can maximize your effort and laser beam what you're doing. Your problem is all you gotta do is make sure what is your basket made out of. If your basket is made out of faith, hope, hard work, and belief, then guess what, that's a good basket. I'm dumping all mine in it. Because ever since I was a young dude, I've been telling jokes, one thing, one thing on even when it got ugly and I was living in a car, I never quit telling them jokes. Man. I just kept believing that them jokes was gonna pay me one day, and I'll be dog gone if it didn't. I ain't take no time off. Go work at Walmart, give me a job, go back to Forward and beg for my job back. Hey man, put all your eggs in a basket. Just make sure that your basket is made up of faith, hope, belief, hard work. Your basket woven by God what you're tripping for. And then here's another one. Let me throw this one that you always have a plan B. That's another loser statement. Why do you have a plan B? Listen to me in order to have a plan B, you have to stop working on plan A to formulate Plan B. In order to have plan B to fall back on. You now have to stop your time working on Plan A to apply some effort to have a Plan B. So in case plan at work, you can fall back on Plan B. Really, who told you that? People ask me all the time with Steve, I don't make no sense. You ain't got no Plan B. Supposed plan A don't work, then I just go get another Plan A. I'm gonna put all my eggs in the basket. If you have Plan B. You are planning on Plan A not working. Man, you're defeating yourself. Where is your faith? Where is your belief? Where is your trust? At one point in time, you got to believe that God could do what he say gonna do. Because he didn't done it for others, he'll most certainly do it for you. Be careful of these sayings that's out here, that's aligned by losers and people to justify why they are not succeeded. Don't apply this stuff to your life, and it ain't got nothing to do with you. You're gonna mess yourself up. Get your Plan A, make it work if it don't ever come to pass then get another plan A. All right, okay, you're listening to show. Ladies and gentlemen, man have your attention please, the introductions will be different today, Ladies and gentlemen. The Cleveland Browns him, damn brown don't one again? Really to Cleveland Baker Mayfield up, Miles Neil, Yes, Lord, God for you, Father God, five winds technically sick. We count the ties of wow. Hell yeah, we count ties as victories when you war a gameleman two years you know what I'm saying at boil, Let me tell you something. To Cleveland Browns beat the carol out of Pam that cameras my dude, but board to with the paum. Then let me say this. What had my heart a little heavy on yesterday even though I was relishing in the joy of winning the game. Texans law Yeah, we know, real, Yeah, Texas lost on a Sunday, that the Browns war. That's his story getting it. That's like, you know what I mean? You know, it's such a happy sad time here on the morning. What was it last week? Last week? Yesterday the damn Browns won, and yesterday the Texas lost. Now did you want to go back to last week. We can go back to two weeks ago when the Browns won again. Wow, wow, congratulations, Yeah right, no, no, no, no no, don't congrat who y'are playing in the playoffs, who y'are playing in the playoffs. Don't grunt congratulate me in that tone. We don't know what we're gonna make the playoffs. I know who y'all playing in the playoffs. We're gonna play nobody right there. We're gonna play somebody, you know what, you know, playing somebody and beating somebody two different damn things. But you know fourteen that went from no wins to five less and you know, and you know, dog, and you can't really bust my bull, not at all, not in the least bit. I don't understand what me is Cleveland Brown fan, yea man you can't know. And he is standing ovation for him. You're hearing greatest thing. Man. What they doing in Cleveland this morning? Oh? Dog, Oh they they still drunk from last night. And hey, man, let me ask you something. The Saints pool of game yesterday didn't then, okay, I missed this last play with New England. Uncle, I didn't see you, my m a. I missed this play everybody. That was the second greatest joy on my son. Okay, New England lost, but it takes a minute to describe the play. I want to hear this. Okay, all right, Uh, we're coming back. And when we do come back, Steve's going to talk to us about the last play with the New England Patriots team. We'll be back to thirty two after the hour right after this. You're listening, all right, Steve. Right before we went to break, Tommy asked you about the very last play of the New England game. Now what happened? Yeah, Well, the New England and Miami Dolphins was in a back to back battle game all along lead, no lead, Loveland and then here come New England doing what they do, made a comeback. Well, we down to the last play, fourth down. I can't remember if it was nine eleven or thirteen seconds on the clock, but it was fourth down. This is their last player. If they don't get this first down, that's it. So they were thinking of hell marry into the end zone. So New England put on defense. Gronkowski number eighty seven, They big tight end. He playing back deep, you know, to knock the ball down or catch it. So nobody else would catch it, right, so they put him back deep safety on defense. The Tanner Hill, I think there's a name for the Miami Dolphins, fades back. He goes back, throws a mid range pass over the middle. The guy catches it, takes a few steps, turns, and Ladder rolls it kind of like a push pass latter role to to a guy coming. He head down the sidelines. They close in on him. He faked like he gonna throw it to somebody else, So let me see it was one two. I think it was just two people of testing. He faked like he was gonna throw it to somebody that then cut across the middle of the broke back towards the sideline. Last person to get him was Gronkowski. Gronkowski broke, then Gronkowski stumble, then Gronkowski dove. This dude ran an ends on it through that damn ball out the stadium. New England lost hey Man on the last player of the game. But if you have seen Tom Brady face he was, if you have seen them holding their helmets, you'd have seen the disbelief on Miami's team. Oh, it was a wonderful, wonderful feeling. So wonderful. That was so you had an outstanding week. Oh you had a great Sunday looked like that, don't it. Man, I just you don't even know how. I was just sitting up in here, just you know, I was so sad by the Houston Texans. It was such a happy said moment, happy said. I was happy. I was. I was ecstatic that the Brown Law. I was overjoyed that the Patriots Law, this crushing blow came in was lost to the well. Later in the morning, we're gonna go through all of the week fourteen NFL wins and losses and see how pimping did anyway, Steve, Yeah, when y'all going through that later on this Eastern No, not right now, give it, give it a little time. We have lots of stuff to cover. Yeah, give it some time, give it a little time. Let him marinate a little bit. Yeah, thank you, Simon. Yeah, you got to talk about Jerk Cleveland when for most of the morning until we actually get to week fourteen, I probably yeah, right, I believe like a thousand times already introduce us this morning, just a brown ladies and gentlemen. Baker Mayfield, Miles Gay. Yeah, he went back to Jim Brown. Yeah, that's who. I don't see what the problem is. Yeah, but I mean it has to be a good feeling though, because Cleveland said, there's a great yell. Five wins from three years and no wins. That's that's unbelievable. That's that's amazing. But but we were competitive in all the games. Oh yeah, yeah, Baker Mayfield. Can I ask you got a good quarterback? Go ahead, I need to ask a question. Is it Baker Mayfield that's changed the team around or is it the whole team? No, it's a number of things. Okay, it's not just Baer. I mean, you don't look, man, we needed a quarterback desperately, and we love his name, don't forget Jay. So he's the best quarterback we've seen in years. And he has a lot to do with the success because of his attitude. But we got a running game, we got a defense. We got that boy out of Ohio State that's got the concussion Ward, yeah, Denz Award. We got defensive line, we got some defense that runs to the ball. Got to do with anything, that has everything to do with everything. Okay, go on, sorry, and that's it, man, And uh, you know them boys is like hustling. And now that we even got Hugh Jackson out of there, it's a different mindset in the locker room, you know, it's a different mindset. They even better football team now without huge jack So have they made all the changes that you wanted them to make? No? Hell no? No? What else? What else you wanted to make? Wow? Oh, we gotta get a little stronger offensive line. Okay, we got a pretty good receiving team. I ain't mad at the running back. Quarterback is good, got it? So now I might be y'all might be ill, might y'all might be all round a couple of years. What what made him keep the coach so damn long? I don't know what he got on that? Yeah, yeah, pitches on owner.

Was that Vice President to Pence's chief of staff, Nick Ayers was going to be the person who replaced it, but he took his name out of contention. He says he wants to move back to Georgia. In other words, he doesn't want the job, but the White House says that he won't be assuming that position. General Kelly reportedly once referred to Confederate General Robert E. Lee as an honorable man and said that only a lack of compromise led to the Civil War. That's what Kelly, the outgoing chief of staff, the Trump White House set the US State Department reaffirming the Trump administration support for the coalition led by the Southeast and Yemen.

Okay, bau hold on tight. We got it for year. Hibberty is the strawberry letter. We can be reading yours, just like we're reading this one subject. You can't hide a beautiful body. Dear Stephen Shirley. I am a thirty year old single woman without any children, and I've been dating a forty one year old man that has three young daughters. We've been together for five months, and all of a sudden, he does not approve of how I dress. He told me that I dress as if I want attention from other men, and not like a wholesome woman. I am a full time legal assistant at a popular law firm, and I take law classes at night. At work, I'm in heels and pencil skirts, and on the weekend, I dress for whatever the occasion is, and it's my own personal style. I have a beautiful curvy body, and at my age, I don't see the problem with me wearing a top that shows a little stomach or a dress that shows off my curves. He didn't have a problem with how I dress when he met me, but now he has been talking about it NonStop. I recently met his daughters and I was dressed appropriately in jeans and a sweatshirt. He still said that I need to do a better I need to do better at sending myself in a more wholesome manner when he met. When he and I met, it was not wholesome. So why does he want me to seem wholesome now? I never intended to be a role model for his children. He says he wants me to be more like his friend's wife. And that's all fine and good if I were an older, stay at home mom, but I'm not. Why is he bringing this up now and trying to change me. I'm at the point where I want to settle down and he could be the one, but obviously I'm not the woman he really wants. Could this be a deal breaker? Please advise? Well, you know what, It depends on how you look at it. It could be a deal breaker if he's like this controlling dude you know that wants to tell you how to dress and you know, compare you to other women like he's doing in this letter all of that. It could be that, or it could be he's considering you for a little more serious role in his life. Because I don't understand why he would even be concerned about how you're dressing if you're not dressing like, you know, a stripper or something in front of his friends and daughters. Dressing for him in private is one thing, but there is something to be said about appropriate dress in front of others, especially young impressionable girls. I'll give him that. Although you said you were dressed properly when you met his daughters in jeans and a sweatshirt, you didn't say that your tummy was out. You didn't say any of that. I mean, this guy does sound controlling, He does sound bossy after only five months in. And remember what he's doing now, how he's talking to you now, you guys haven't even made the six month mark. That's how it's going to be in a relationship and into a marriage. So you're gonna have to decide if that's what you want. I mean, you have your own personal style, and you said you don't see anything wrong. I mean that's what's fashionable. Crop tops are fashionable, you know, as long as you're rearly had on one in the order in the dr at all at all. I mean, you could do things tastefully. But we were at the beach. Can we just say that Steve, we were we were it was a swim party and everything. We weren't that no beach. We was on the inside in the auditorium, but we saw you. I don't know where you came from from the beach. Look't on that anyway, back to the letter, you can't hide a beautiful body as a subject. So you know, even though you never intended to be a role model for his children, sometimes we're thrust in those positions. You know, you're dating this guy and he does have daughters, so you have to consider that when you are around them, you're you're You're not there um their mom or anything, but they are. If you're around their dad, they are looking to you for certain things. So you know, I'm not telling you to cover up and dress like a nun from headge tour or anything like that, but be mindful, especially around the daughters, of how you're presenting yourself. Uh, you know, just do that for their sake. Okay, come out of yourself for a little bit and just do that for their sake. As far as you and this guy goes, time will only tell. If he continues to be controlling. He sounds like a nagger and all that already, But you gotta decide if you want to deal with that, because it's not gonna get any better. And yeah, when you're fine and beautiful, you can't hide it, you cannot steve let it out. Well, this is a real simple fix right here. Appreciate everything you said, Sherley. Here's the other side of the coin. See the way you dress, that's how you got him. The way you look, that's how you got him. See he liked all that when he saw you. That's what got his attention. You had what he wanted. That's why y'all together. Now, the little pencil skirts, the tight fit, the crop tops to cleave it showing, the rep skirts, the fitted sweater, y'all go out on weekend, you dress how you want. Bam, that's got it. But now he want to change. Well, see the problem he got now is he probably need a nun. He needed to date somebody that's a little bit different than you. And I'm gonna tell you why. Here's I'm first I'm gonna get into this right here. You thirty and he forty one. That's eleven years. That's a gap. That's a gap, and it's a real gap when it's more than an eleven year distance. Eleven year difference. It's probably more because he's probably an older forty one, if you know what I mean, he probably an old, stuck up forty one. Then you might just be a little bit younger thirty. But you're a lawyer, you work at a law firm, you got a career. You gotta go to work appropriate. You can't go in there looking like anything like like like like you know, you can't go to work looking like you a case. So I think you and you're okay right there. I think what's really happening here is this eleven year age difference is bigger than eleven years because in his mind he wants something else. He wants something else from you now, and now he trying to shape you like that because he turned around and said it. He wants you to dress like his friend's wife. And you said that be fine if he was a forty some years stay at home mom. But you ain't got no kids. I don't I don't know who he rot, but you all have to decide it's what you want from him worth giving him what he wants from you. All Right, We'll come back with part two of your response at twenty three after the hour. Right after this you're listening, Let's recap today's strawberry letters, Steve. Let's get to part two of your response, subject you can't hide a beautiful body. Well, this thirty year old lady married his old ass for the one year old man with these three damned daughters that she ain't got no kids. They've been together five months and he don't approve now how she dressed. You know, he says you dressed like he want attention from other men. See that's crazy, because see you dressed got attention from him. Now that he got you, he don't want nobody else paying attention to you. This is the beginning of something greater. Now, I really do believe that this dressing is the beginning of something greater. And like Shirley said, he could be very controlling. Next thing, you know, you can't where it is. Next thing, you know why you're going over there? Next and you know why you spending that. Next thing, you know, I don't want you driving that car no more. Next thing, you know you ain't gonna hand no friends. I don't see a problem with me. Man or top to show a little stomach or a dress that shows off my courage. He didn't have a problem with you dress how he met me. You don't don't write it didn't. But now I've been talking about a non stop that's called some of his damn friends is looking at you. See now he's starting to notice some of the other men looking at you. Now he's feeling sort of inadequate. You know, I don't want you to do this. I don't want you to He feeling some little little bit of insecurity too. I think I recently met his daughters and I was dressed appropriately in jeans and a sweatshirt. He still said, I need to do a better presenting myself in a more wholesome matter, with the hell and wholesome. That's what I'm saying, covered up from head to tell. So why you want me to seem wholesome? Now? I never tend to be a role model for his children. Okay, Now let me explain something. You can't say that. I can't say that to him, man, I ain't trying to be no damn robot for your damn kids. I can't say that. I don't say that, lady. He ain't gonna handle it good, all right? He says that he wants me to be more like his friend's wife, and that's all finally good. Well, he should marry his friends. He should just go dates one of his one have have. His friend's wife introduced him to some of her friends. They all three kids at home. Yeah, drive a minute, van, it all, it's all good. Ain't nothing wrong with that. But you're gonna get out this little fan sass call you guy. You're gonna get yourself a minute van, get down here to this damn save a lot and get you some damn groceries. Wow, that's what you're gonna do. Why is he bringing us up now and trying to change me. I'm at the point why I want to settle down. And he could be the one, but obviously I'm not the woman he really wants. Well, now, hold on, let's just take these last two statements. I'm at the point where I'm ready to settle down and he could be the one, could be the one, and but obviously I'm not the woman he really wants. Okay, he could be the one, but obviously I'm not the woman he really wants. Could this be a deal breaker? It could be a deal break. I think what you should do, though, is wait a little while and just see how it goes. You know, don't make a commitment. Just stay in this relationship and see how I go, see how heavy he gets with what he wants. You know, you know, some of the little changes you can make in your dress might be good for you, but then some of it might not be what you want to do. You can't just totally flip the script for this man and he flipping the script for you. I will flip the script for a woman if she flipped the script for me. This as long as I get flipped, that's got to give flippant a woman flipping. That's what j J J. The woman he used to date big slid. It ain't gonna go like you playing whistle no no, no, no no j. That's how he liked it. You ain't been flipped for no. I don't either. I can't how come out facing the head boy, that's not a good feeling. I don't know what you're doing. You flip me coming out when it is going WHOA what we're doing here? Calling? Calling sexual time out? It's too hard. Can't flip me because usually when you get flipped, it's followed by shut up. But yeah, you mean about to say, soon as you get flipped, your respect is taken. No, man, you're not gonna talk to me like that. No, no, no, no no. If you keep getting flipped, it follows up with a slap. Oh man, this is this is scary. Listen. Yeah, you know now that you look at it, Tommy, as I was doing light flipping, this is aggressive flipping. Also, once you get flipped, Once you get flipped, you get this baby, fix me my play, fix your damn I don't place, I can't get the sandwich, I can't get the same. So you're going to lead the covers off me like that? This right? Yeah? Yeah, you don't want to get flip. Yeah, take your flip back, Tommy, m Yeah. Yeah. But Steve, it seems like he's getting progressively worse though they've only been together for five months, and he keeps bugging her and nagging her about this. I mean, you know it's the beginning of something. Yeah, yeah, and it's happening now. Controlling is not fun and this is five just five months. If yeah, they're in a full fledged relationship, and this is how he is. If he's controlling and you have nothing to say, it's just gonna just remember this old saying right here, ain't no fun when the rabbit got to go. All right, look, we gotta go email us or instagram us guys. Uh, your your thoughts on today's Strawberry Letter at Steve Harvey f M. Coming up in ten minutes.

Uh, all right, to hang tight, everybody coming back with our last break of the day and Steve's closing remarks right after this at forty nine after the hour. You're listening, all right, here we are Steve, guys, last break of the day. Steve send us home with some great closing remarks for today, had a good day to day. Hey, my closing remarks today is something that I want to share with you all that I've been kind of are dealing with a lot lately, and I mean a lot. And the only reason I'm sharing it with you because I think there's quite a few people who can relate to this. The thing that I'm trying to correct in my thinking. Uh, you know, the Bible says be anxious for nothing, and there's I'm pretty sure that are people who could explain this a lot better than me. But being anxious for nothing means, you know, in other words, don't worry so much about what's going to happen, don't don't want something so badly that it consumes you. Don't keep wearing about something that you want to see happen that you're expecting to receive, that you want to be gifted, that you want to acquire, whatever it is, be anxious for nothing. Now that's hard to do. It really is because naturally, as people, including myself me personally, I have a tendency to focus on the things that I want. Here's the problem with it, Here's a twofold problem with it. When you focus on what you want, Number one, focusing on it, it shows a lack of faith. Because everything you've ever needed, I mean, really, just ask yourself, hasn't God always done it? I mean, what you need it. You may not get everything you want. Everything you want ain't good for y'all. Can tell you that right now, I wanted a whole lot of stuff turned out not to be good for me. But everything you've needed God has taken care of. So being anxious for his will to be done I mean, I mean being anxious for Him to do something in your life, which is something He's always done. It just it just exhibits a lack of faith when you become anxious for stuff. The second part of it is is it causes you to lose focus on what you already have and once you lose focus for what you already have. You are no longer showing the level of gratitude that you need to exhibit in order to move your life forward to the next level. That's a dangerous trap, and I find myself in it oftentimes, and I'm just gonna be I'm just gonna be honest with you. So what I'm trying to learn and teach myself and become comfortable with it's how not to be anxious for nothing, realizing that God has always taken care of me. God has always taken care of you. God has never been late in this world. He ain't ever been late, not now single time. He always comes through with everything you need. He may not come when you want him, but he ain't never laid. So I have to get comfortable in knowing that He has always come through for me. He has always delivered for me. So why am I being anxious? And in my anxiousness for what I don't have, I now cause myself to lose sight and show the proper amount of gratitude for what I do have. And gratitude is one of the major components of the principles of success, because the more you are grateful for the more God will give you to be grateful for. You See, so sometimes I trick myself out of blessings by overthinking it, over wanting it. I mean, I'm not saying you're not supposed to want anything anymore. You will, but don't be anxious for it. Don't be sitting up fretting about it. He gonna do what he's supposed to do. And then, in another word, God don't really need your help to accomplish nothing. He really don't. He can get all this done without you. Get out of the way. So you know, though, that's something right there. It's been one of the man Ain't focuses. And when I get it right, When I when I'm not anxious for nothing and I do show the right amount of gratitude for what I've already been given, it releases pressure from me. You know, you've heard old people say, if you're gonna pray about it, don't worry about it, and if you're gonna worry about it, don't pray about it. And you know, sometimes in my anxiousness, I'm praying for stuff over and over and over. But you know, if you're gonna pray about it, you got you got you gotta not worry about it. But if you're anxious for something, you're worrying about it, you're just worrying about it. And that right there is not the way that is done. It's just not the way it's done. And I've been learning over the past month or so really how to focus on that a lot better. And that may be something that you might be looking at two or going through And I just wanted to share that with you because because you know, it could be something that you might be dealing with two And I'm just sharing with you that you ain't the only one going through it. You ain't the only one feeling some kind of way about it. That in actuality, a lot of people might be doing it, and we're doing it injustice to ourselves. So be anxious for nothing, trusting the fact that God has always taken to every way better than you've taken. Community. Save those are more clothing for all.
