Y'all know what time to y'all don't know y'all back a suit on, looking back to back down, giving them more like amazing buck things. And it's not me true good it Steve har listening to moving together for ste Please Moby, I don't join by joining you doing me. You gotta use that turn be hing. You gotta turn to turn them out, turning, got to turn them out, then turn the water the water go. Come come on your faddy. Uh huh, I show will good morning everybody. You're listening to the voice, Come on, dig me now one it all. It's Steve Harvey got a radio show. Well all right, I've learned something and it sharing time. And I am ever appreciated. I do appreciate God for all that he allows me to learn in my life. One of the best lessons I've learned is that hardship teaches you some great lessons. Challenges brings about some of my best results. I think what I'm trying to say is in every challenge and hardship, every setback, I've learned something so so valuable. So here's what I've You know, I've known this, but I've just learned it at a different angle appreciation and gratitude is the key to having more. Now, I don't know how that sound to you, but I can't tell you how true it is. God being fair and just as he really is. He really is. He's a fair and a just God. What's most beneficial to us is he happens to be full of mercy and grace. And I'm telling you something, man, I've probably benefited from his grace and mercy more than anything else. I mean, really, man, if it wasn't for him just forgiving me and then for him just huch in my life the way he has I mean, I'm I'm not hearing this position today. I'm just not. But a funny thing has happened along the way, even to you. If you look at it, is it your genuine appreciation and gratitude has been the key to you having more for your continued blessings and for making room for having to open up and pour out blessings that you don't have room enough to receive. If you look at it, see God being a fair and just God, which he is, why would he put more on you than you can bad? If you've noticed everything that's happened in your life, if you're still here. You've made it. You know, forget how rough it was, got that, but you made it. Forget what it sent you through when it hide made you feel you made it. Now, what makes people give up and you hear about people committing suicide, is they leave the God out of their life and they start allowing that other voice to control. And if it's really true that God never puts more on you than you can bear, as long as you stay connected to God, you can get through anything. But you lose that connection, you lose that communication, you lose that relationship with him. If you're not having a relationship with God, then who you're having a relationship with Now it ain't but two forces at work at all time. It's good and evil. It's positive and negative. It's God, it's Satan. Now, this is at work all the time. So if you're not being positive about everything, you leave room for negativity step in. If you're not trying to be righteous in your way, then you allow evil to step in. If you don't work on your relationship with God, come on, now, look who you're letting step in. So now I'm asking you to understand that God never puts more on you than you can bear. Okay, now that we got that clear, that's a fact. Okay, Now with that fact in mind, let's go over this right here. Why would God, being as just and merciful as he is, put more on you than you can bear? Example, if God has given you blessings and all you're doing is complaining about him, you're never showing any appreciation of gratitude about it. Why would he give you some more stuff to be ungrateful for? Why would he give you some more stuff to complain about? Why would he give you some more stuff that you would not show any more appreciation or I mean, this thing is real simple, man, ain't it if you think about it? So? A lot of times, man, when I was going through my positions of not having it and wondering at all like here, I ended up checking myself and going, man, I'm not even showing any gratitude or appreciation for the things He has done for me. Start showing some appreciation and gratitude because it's the key to having more, It's the key to continued blessings. It's the key to the wonders of heaven opening up and pouring out a blessing that you won't have room enough to receive. It's the appreciation and gratitude of what you already have, as minimal as it may appear to be right now for you, it is still what you have. But if you've shown no gratual, no gratitude for the minimal, why would he give you the maximum. I mean, I'm just really just trying to put it real, real, simple, so I can keep understanding this thing right here. So let me give you an example. In my life, I had gotten so busy at one point that I had begun to complain about how busy I was. This is true because I am busy, but it ain't the busy part because I asked to be busy, you know, I asked God to give me opportunities and to make a way for me. Well, in that you got to do something, and you got to get busy. But I began to complain about the business and how busy I was, and I noticed that a couple of things slowed up for me. So I had got to the point where I wasn't showing real gratitude for it. Well, I looked up and a couple of things started slowing down, and then I had to catch myself, and I went, wow, man, you have got to start embracing the fact that you are this busy, embraced the fact that what all comes along with it. Because to whom much is given, much is required. You got to start embracing the requirement part if you want to continue with the giving part. So I changed my attitude. I caught myself and I started thinking him and showing real gratitude for how busy I was instead of complaining about how busy I was. And then guess what, It opened up the windows of heaven and some more blessings got poured out. It just works that way all the time, for everybody, for me, for you, for everybody. So listen, y'all again. Your appreciation and gratitude is the key to having more. Your appreciation and gratitude is the key to continued blessings. And your appreciation and gratitude it's the only way that you can get those windows of heaven to open up and pour out to these blessings that you won't have room enough to receive. You gotta act like you're glad for what you got in order to get more. You feel me, Let's go, you're ladies and gentlemen, without further due, man, I have you undivided attention, please, Today's show, Well, today, I'm dedicating the show to something I used to want to be when I was a little boy.

He has the right to be friends with Kanye. Right. Okay, Steve, let's catch up on today's headlines. We're moving from that, great lady and gentlemen, and it's a trip. Okay, good morning, everybody, this is a trip. Well, after months of saying not yet, not yet, no, no, no, how, Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced the launch of an impeachment investigation into President Trump. I'm announcing the House of Represented his moving forward with an official impeachment inquiry I'm directing our six committees to proceed with their investigations. Under that umbrella, the president must be held accountable. No one is about the law. Pelosi's call for an inquiry comes after an unidentified whistle blower alleged Trump, during a phone call, tried to pressure the president of the Ukraine into investigating a vice President Biden and his son for financial corruption. And whistleblower says it was all because that Trump wanted something on Biden because he looked at him as his possible challenger for the president for his second term. The whistle blower says he'll testify before Congress so now. Trump says he'll release a transcript of the conversation, although lawmakers may not accept that. They may wish to hear the tape of the conversation. Trump calls it all a witch hunt garbage. He's holding a four pm news conference in New York today and tonight a New York City fundraiser. In Texas, opening arguments began this week in the trial of the now fired Dallas cop named Amber Geiger. Geiger, who's white, shot and killed an innocent, unarmed black man who lived in the apartment just above hers last year. She claims that she'd worked a double shift and was so tired that she parked on the wrong level, entered Botham Jean's apartment thinking it was hers, and shot him dead. But the prosecutor says Geiger's story about thinking his place was hers is not credible since there were several signs that it was not her place, like the bright red rug that mister Jean kept outside of his apartment. Amber Geiger has no floor mat in front of her door. Amber Geiger has nothing but the concrete floor, so the state says that Geiger pulled the trigger with intent would make what she did murder. Also, there was never any a word as to whether her former colleagues the other cops ever gave her a breathalyzer test after this incident. Authorities say that a former NBA player named and Andre Emmett to was a killed early Monday morning in Dallas about two thirty am. He was approached by two men as he sat in his vehicle outside of his home. Cops say one of the suspects took out a gun, an altercation ensued, and that Emmett was fatally shot trying to run away. Andre Emmett paid for the Memphis Grizzlies the Jersey Nancy spent much of his care overseas, most recently was playing and I cub Big three League. Finally, today is national love that French day, Si Bone. There's a deed dem they'll say that in Flinch. Now back to Steve Happy Morning Show. You're listening to show. President Trump's tweet about the sixteen year old climate activist is his most ugly and most petty tweet yet. All right, sixteen year old Greta Thunberg from Sweeten delivered that and passion speak to speech to the United Nations Climate Action Summit, where she called out world leaders for not responding to the climate crisis with more urgency. Take a listen. This is all wrong. I shouldn't be up here. I should be back in school on the other side of the ocean. Yet you all come to us, young people, for hope. How dare you? You have stolen my dreams and my childhood with your empty words. Yet I'm one of the lucky ones. People are suffering, people are dying, and eco systems are collapsing. We are in the beginning of a mass extinction. And what you can talk about is the money and fairy tales of each of economic growth. How dare you? Wow? Wow, you know what you know, you know, you know what's crazy. And for him to like, you know, like pander to market, you know, he made kind of Marketer. You know, it's like a very happy girl, this dude right here to even take the time. No other world leader. She was talking to all of them, none of them, the prime ministers, no other presidents. Nobody said anything of cruel nature. You know, a couple of I'm saying, you know, I think we should listen to her. But we're really the only country that's fighting right now the fact that it's real, that this is real. He's the one that doesn't think is real. And then for him to comment on this young girl, yes, it doesn't make any damn sense at all, he said. She seems like a very happy girl looking forward to a bright and wonderful future. So nice to see. I mean, these things go down in history when peoples. All we have to do now is go to the polls and vote and to assure that he doesn't win a term for the second time. If it doesn't happen, then he has to answer to all of these things. But as long as he's the sitting president, he can't be indicted. His fight right now. He don't can't number out being president. He just don't want these indictments to come down. And that's all he doing. Man, He's just time. He just buying time, bro. So they can't get themselves together. And the sad part about it is the entire Republican Party is okaying all of them. Every Senator, every Congressman, every Trump supporter who votes is saying it's okay for him to break the law and disobey the constitution. We're fine with it, Yeah, because he's a good TV star. Wow. All right, Moving on, coming up at thirty four after the hour, this trial is underway for the former Dallas cop who shot her neighbor. We're going to talk about that right after this you're listening show. Well, the trial started yesterday for the former Dallas cop Amber Geiger, who shot her neighbor, a black man, both of John, a twenty six year old accountant from the Caribbean nation of Saint Lucia. He was in his apartment in Dallas, Texas, in his living room, eating a bowl of vanilla ice cream. That's happened on September sixth of two in eighteen last year, when former Dallas cop Amber Geiger entered his apartment, shot and killed him. Geiger's defense attorneys argued that she fired in self defense based on the mistaken belief that she was in her home after working a fifteen hours shift, and that she believed that Botham John was a burglar slash intruder. However, the prosecution said that amber Geiger had worked overtime that day, but it was mostly involving office work that was not strenuous. The prosecution also said that the jurors will also see sexually explicit messages that Amber Geiger exchanged that evening with a coworker that discussed meeting up after her shift ended. So she was too tired. He wasn't too tired to do whatever they tex, right, that's the point. Yeah, say something too after working along shift? Yeah, Steve. Of course, most people who are breaking an inner in your home when you walk in on them, probably I'm just going out on Liam here. Probably won't be eating a bowl of vanilla ice cream. It probably won't be and probably be in you know, looking a little bit more hurried. Secondly, I've I've really been overworked a great deal in my life, and I think that I think you all have had some moments where you've been extremely overworked with the keys of everything, the job, being a single mom, and then you come in the house and I'm just trying to figure I'm trying to sing at the times I didn't crawled into my house. Man, I'm talking about after taping all day, doing shows, all day, interviews all day, I'm trying to think of when the last time I was so tired I shot somebody because I'm tired. Man. Yeah, now I'd cuss some people out from fatigue. I just can't remember shooting nobody because I was tired. Yea, all stressed? Right, Well, can you remember being so tired that you didn't know where you lived and you were going in the wrong drive? Have you done that? Yeah? Because she parked on she lived one three and he lived on four, and she parked on his level and went or something. They were saying she parked on his level and then went in that apartment on that level. No, no, no, no, Well that's her point to say, why she why she was here exactly? Well, everybody didn't have a weapon, he didn't everybody house smell different to the It doesn't no house. You know what your house smell like? Home? You know something something dog? You know the moment you opened the door, you know that ain't your key. Yeah, that ain't your plants. Back then the door was unlocked, his door jar. The door was a jar. Yeah, yeah, that's what she's saying. She isn't a time to have a conversation. If I'm standing there with a bowl like ice cream, can't you say who are you? Hey? We talked for you. Just don't killed me. Dog. I have a gun and you got ice cream. I think I'm winning. A police officer, I'm trained on the ground. Get your hands up, halt freeze. There's a lot of things can get said. And that's what the prosecution is arguing as well. No, man, this didn't. Yeah, here's here's a scary part. Race. Huh. I'm concerned about race now. Her her defense is saying he was yelling and stuff at her because she entered his apartment so he hey, hey, hey that and and she's saying that's when she thought he was an intruder and that's when she shot him. You know, you're trained police officer, you know that someone that's breaking in. Isn't gonna say hey, hey hey, or be unarmed? Yeah, or be unarmed. And that's one of your training to tell you. As an officer, you observe everything. The sickness of it is the defense, yes, is trying to get her off. Oh yeah, that's the sickness. That's their job. Yeah. All right, Well, we're gonna go ahead and move on here. We'll be watching this trial though, and keep you updated.

We could be reading your letter live on the air, just like we're gonna read this one right here, right now. Thank you, Carla, hold me down these last couple of days. Oh you walcome, my dear, buggle up, hold on tight. We got it for you. Here. It is a Strawberry letter. Subject Shirley, I'm gonna read the letter for you. Thank you. Thank's gonna ask you. I'm gonna do it. I appreciate it. Thank you so much. He reads it. Subject, I can't do this damn hood Redwood. They want to say, I'm sorry, I can't do the hood Red wedding. Here, Stephen, Shirley, this isn't your typical letter, but just like everyone else, I need advice. I'm a thirty seven year old female. I am a professional wedding planner, but also have a corporate job that pays the bills. Six months ago, a co worker asked me to help her put together her dream wedding. I was excited at first, but then I realized that she had a very limited budget and very ghett old ideas. When it came time to choose her menu for the reception, she said that she had already picked out her food and set up the delivery. I almost died when she said when she said she was getting Churches, chicken and sides for her reception. She told me that she has been dieting all year to fit into her wear and dress, and she can't wait to have some real food to celebrate her weight loss. I chose an inexpensive and really nice venue for her reception, but she chose to have the reception in the activities room her grandmother Senior Living home so her friends can smoke weed and bring their own liquor. And she also asked me to get her some neat pads for the reception, and I was too scared to ask her why. I finally told her that I wanted no parts of this, and she could just pay me for what I had done so far. She told me she owed me nothing because we are work friends now. Stephen Sherley, you know I was hot. We did not speak for weeks, but recently she called me apologize and pleading for my help. I don't want my name and reputation on this get old mess, but I don't want to keep ignoring her at work. You think I should help her out and salvage the friendship or just say forget it and keep my business morals, please advise? Wow, you know what, wedding seemed to always bring out the best and the worst in people. It just seems I don't know if it's the stress level or what it is, but people just, you know, they they are crazy when when it's wedding time and you're planning it and all that. But I am a bit confused on this letter, Steve. I m because in the beginning she called she called her the letter writer called her just a co worker, and then that's what she did in the beginning, and then at the end of the letter, you know she's she's saying she's trying to salvage their friendship. So I'm trying to figure out are you guys just co workers or are you truly friends? I mean, the lady, your co worker or whatever called you work friends. That's why she didn't want to pay you. So Um, seems like work friends is what you guys really are, and I think that makes a difference in how you respond, And it depends on what she really wants you to do. She didn't you didn't say so if you're if you're just work work friends, I mean, you can easily tell her that you don't want to do it. Um, you know, you think it's best to you keep your work and your business separate from this particular job right here. You don't want to cause any friction on the job or anything like that. Just tell her that you don't want to do this and these are normally you know, you don't normally do this kind of a wedding. And she has her own ideas, so it's best that she gets someone uh other than you that can handle it. I think that's the way you should you should deal with this, suggests as she go with someone else, and you guys keep your working friendship intact and just you know, just if she needs help finding someone else. Maybe you can help her do that. But no, I don't think you should help her with this wedding because yeah, it may ruin your reputation, and you don't. Yeah, I mean she sounds like she's doing all the work anyway. I mean she doesn't take any of your suggestions. Steve, Hey, Shirley, welcome back. Great answer. I disagree with every damn thing you see. Can I go on listen, take advantage of this. These are rare moments in life. The memory of this wedding will last you forever. You you are blocking your blessing. You don't know how hard. Everybody got cell phones. Now that's gonna go virable. This is gonna be the great. You'll be laughing at this for years cause a sober space. Look, let's just go over how wonderful this opportunity. Just first of all, you thirty seven, you got a job, so hell if your wedding business ain't worth a damn no, how a nobody called and yourself herb because you got a main job paying bill, so hell, why not take advantage of this opportunity to go down there, put together some and have yourself a good ass time. Now you got exciting when she asked you, and then you realize she had a limited budget with very ghett old ideas. Let me explain something to you. Limited budgets press you towards hood is a mass ideas. You ain't do what regular winds do our own own budgets. You don't have money for all them damn candles. Crazy. You don't have money to rent out no big church. You can't be having no damn rehearsal dinner. You got you gotta you gotta put your money where it is just half of having churches, chicken and sides after reception. What you mad think? Delicious? All right, Steve? Hold damn who got the bed? Who got the biggest? We'll have you get the most damn check you hang on church, We'll have heart two in Steve's response. Coming up at twenty three after the hour, today's subject I can't do a hood red wedding. I just can't. We'll be back right after this. You're listening, all right, Steve. Come on, Let's recap today's Scobberry letters. Subject I can't do a hood rat wedding. Thirty seven year old lady seems professional, real nice lady. She's also a professional wedding planner. She's got a corporate job or the pays all the bills, so this could come to this. She does this on the side. One of the co workers asked her to plan to win, and she was excited about it till she found out well that the lady had a limited budget with some ghetto ideas. And like I said, the little money presses you towards ghetto ideas. So let's start with the first ghetto idea. You wanted to plan the menu, she said, no problem, I'm already set up delivery. I've been dieting all year trying to get in this dress. I want some real damn food. Churches is delivering all the food. I don't know if you understand what churches is. I ain't been in years, so let me tell you last time I was there. What I remember. Let's just talk about they got fried over. Oh, yes, they got there. Yes, yes, less, they got corn, they got that, They got them rolls. But what do churches have that no other chicken place offers. They offer the now distinct torontosaurus size chicken parts. Yes, you can get a damned leg that looked like a turkey leg. You can get a five that looked like a woman's ass. You are missing some of the biggest pieces of chicken you will ever eat. So I ain't mad at her with your church church. She told me she'd been there. I chose you want some real food, and then you said, I chose an inexpensive and really nice venue for her reception. But she chose to have a reception in the activities room at her grandmama seen your living home. See that's probably free. See that's free because old people just want somebody to come over, so they probably letting them have that free and their grandmama can't go nowhere, So grandmama get to come to the wed and invite her friend. Now, the reason she chose that is so they can smoke weed and bring their own liquor. Now, all old people gonna love this, because a lot of old people smoking weed now for glock hooma, all theorriters. Yeah, pain symptoms, So they're gonna love them young people coming over there with that weed and then drinking. Oh, they this fitning to be a party, So you know she wants that. Then she asked me to get her some knee pads for the reception, and I was too scared to ask her why. Yeah, I can't. This is why I come in that. See, you ain't been in no hood wedds I have. I did a comedy special on one of the biggest hood weddings I had ever went to, which was my niece's damn weddh And I told Margree's budgie ass, we wasn't going. She's gonna tell me your niece really, won't you there? Okay? Cool? Now you need knee pads at a hood reception because when the girls that's in the bridal party. Yeah, sometimes when they dancing and they do the dog line and they all get on their knees and hike their leg up and hump the air like they're doing the doggie thing. You ain't seen that, Yeah, I want you to understand. That's popping off. I've seen it. That's a big thing at the hood winds. Yeah. Women, Yeah, they get on their knees, they hike, they dress up, or they can look like they are dog peeing on the tree and they hump in the air. That's what the knee pads is fall and then they got a game in the hood or you know why the when the when the lady throw the of who came over her head. All the girls have to stay on their knees to get it stop. I'm like, okay, oh, stay see, y'all ain't been there. That's all I used to go to. Everybody on my block got married like this, And you don't think I'm nine just asking people. She told me you s scared that I finally told her. I want to know part to this, she could just pay me for what I had done so far. Don't really sound to me like you did nothing, But she told me that she owed me nothing because we are work friends, not Stephen Sherley. You know I was hot. Well, I don't really know what you did because the suggestion you gave her for the food, she didn't take that. The suggestion you gave her for the venue, she didn't take that. So I'm pretty damn show she ain't gonna wear what you told her to wear, so I don't think she owed you nothing. Now. Also, if you keep pressing her, I'm just gonna go out on Live and say you probably setting yourself for for ass whipping. Cause people to throw hood a squids like this through hood ass consequences too, So you keep pressing her about this money if you want to, and you know, but recently she came you, apologizing and pleading for your help. I don't want my name and reputation on this ghetto mess. I would go down there, film the whole damn thing and keep it in my all caves for laughs. You're missing one of the great blessings in life. And how dare you not go help up? You go help that lady and throw in extra ghetto stuff permental spread sandwiches along with the church's checkers with two picks and cut each sandwich up into thirty twos and stick two pics with the Christmas paper owner. I have most suggestions, all right, listen. You can post your comments on Today's Strawberry Letter on Instagram and Facebook at Steve Harvey FM, and check out the Strawberry Letter podcast. Please undemand coming up at forty six after the hour, Nancy Pelosi has announced formal impeachment inquiry of President Trump. Wow, we'll talk about it right after this. You're listening to Dave Harvey Morning Show, I'll speaker Nancy Pelosi confirmed before you do the Nancy Pelosi, Yes, Oh, we were talking about the hood wedding on the last break. Oh yeah, And I just wanted to point out the people that if you're struggling with hood weddings, I have a special hood Wedding Service Planner where I help people that don't have money to go on and make these hood dreams come a reality. And it's the several things you can do. Like, for example, instead of throwing rice when they lead a thing, you have people bring rice and beans, and then after you throw them, pick them up and then y'all go down to the reception hall before they get started, and y'all put them in water and serve it back to that's that's like, because you've heard of B wild b bring your own bottom, that's bring your own beans, and so you have beans and rice down at the wed that's a good thing. Also another alternative, you're not gonna have money to release the doves at the wedding. So what you do is really exciting, is we open up this big box in it ain't got none but flies in it. So you just let the flies out at the where they go out there aggravating everybody that get all over that church. They be killing flies for two weeks and then one last thing you might want to sit at a hood when no, you're not gonna have money for candles. So as to when they say who in here? You can now kiss the bride? Just have somebody over there cut the light switch off and everybody turned their phones on and wave them in your air. You don't care. Yeah, these are nice hood where I have some more for you if you want it. So just let me know, go ahead and shore all right, all right, Steve, So how Speaker Nancy Pelosi has confirmed that the House of Representatives is moving forward with an impeachment inquiry of President Trump. Now this is for allegedly Ukraine to investigate twenty twenty Democratic presidential election hopeful Joe Biden and his son Hunter. Did President Trump abuse his presidential powers and seek help from a foreign government for his reelection, which is against the constitution. President Trump says it's a witch hunt, and he's releasing transcripts of the calls with the Ukrainian president, So there you go. Yeah, has been reluctant up until this point. They're they're gonna release something, but it ain't gonna be that whole thing. It ain't gonna be the original. No, they've already taken say tamper, Yeah, tampered wod Yeah, yeah, you're right about the transcript. H yeah, okay, yeah, this is really this is this is just bad. But Pelosi, she's not playing. She's no, she's taken a long time think it over because you know, when they impeach Bill Clinton, he won the next election. I mean, you know, public empathy and sympathy was on his side everyways, Well that's how she felt at first. All right. Coming up at the top of the hour, Antonio Brown is going back to college. Yeah, we'll talk about that right after this. You're listening to this show. In just nine months, wide receiver Antonio Brown has worked his way off three NFL teams, and now he finds himself unemployed. Oh boy. Despite earning tens of millions of dollars throughout his career, he has decided to go back to college now. Antonio Brown registered for online classes at Central Michigan University after announcing that he's done with the NFL. Antonio will be taking courses in business management, English, Religion, and sociology. And uh, I mean this is a good thing. Will take business manage meant English, religion and soci theology. Well, I'm telling you what. These are all courses he fitn' fail. Oh if in business management, if your ass manages to throw away thirty million ten days, I don't think business management can help you. English. I've read his text. He and I should not be in that class together. Religion. He obviously knows nothing about the Lord, because if he'd talked to God about any of this, he wouldn't have done it. And what's he taking the last one is in sociology. He don't understand the damn thing about people. So I see four ELP's coming. I don't know what Antonio, I don't know what. Damn the Vrid commercial you saw that, man, he'd you think going back to college boy's gonna replace this thirty million partner? They ain't got them jobs in college. Man. Remember when he started first started coming out with all this stuff. I kept asking you, guys, is this guy that good? Is he that good? And surely he's an exceptional talent? And that's that's what you guys said. You're not that good to steal this team. Yeah, you can't act like that away. But he's just not too much baggage? Yeah, well had he It's it's not Yea. This last thing where he rolled talked about sharp Craft and Rothslenburger. That kind of sealed it a little bit fun. He could play again. If he goes and gets checked in and get some help, he's gonna have to put it on. He's gonna have to say he just was mental mental health is shoes are real. I think I think he needs some form of therapy. I think he can go that route because what he's doing is self destructive. Yes, so I think he does need to get some type of help. And I'm not a big proponent of counseling, I am, but there are times when it really is necessary because some people. Sometimes you have to verbalize and get people to get you to think about it a certain way. Your biggest form of help would be prayer. Once you refuse that, it's no telling what's going to happen to you, soul. I think prayer and therapy good combination. That I'm not I'm not mad at that. I'm not mad that therapy is real. Ye is, because because I agree with you, Steve, there is something wrong. You cannot throw such a brilliant career away like something's wrong and he just needs help. Yeah, I'm gonna tell you like somebody told my bodyguard this one. Boom's talking to this lady. She said, you don't need to go up inside your head by yourself, by myself, saying you don't need to go up in your head by yourself no more, you need to take somebody. That somebody, because you're coming back out with some thoughts today. Well, I laughed so hard. But I can't imagine when Anthony Brown Antonio Brown is by himself. I can't imagine him not being mad at himself for his actions of late. I just can't. Because we stupid is a statement we make it. Yeah, this is. But if he's not mad at himself, he really need to be. He really really I would strongly suggest getting getting some therapy. Coming up next, some more music trending news on the Steve Harvey Morning Show. We'll be back at twenty minutes after the hour.

When she got near the camel, who's lived at the truck stop for over two decades, Casper the camel sat on her, so she fought back by singing her teeth into his genitals. Authority sided the woman and her husband for a leash law violation, but didn't file charges against the truck stop owner since he posted numerous keep outsigns on the enclosure.

You're sweating it out, so each day I feel better. All right, So Steve, you're ready, Yeah, take us home? All right, Here we go. Steve's closing remarks. You know, we often talk about success and how hard it is, and I try to excuse me give people the weaponry to deal with life as the difficulties and challenges come, because life is a series of these things, and I've always talked to you about how to prepare for that, how to expect it, what to do when it happens. Well, today I wanted to take a different approach to it. I wanted to give you a little bit more positive reinforcement because, like I've always said, the majority of people that I know want two things in life. They want to be happy and they want to be successful. Those are the two things I find that most people want that I know, I'm pretty sure this people don't fit into that category. But I try not to associate with that type, so I keep it moving. I'm only looking for people who are trying to be happy and successful, you know, and being happy and successful covers a lot of things. You know. They try to live their best life, try to treat people kindly, you know, try to make an impact, Try to make a difference in the world. You know, try to leave a legacy, you know, one their children have a better life than the one they had. So let's talk for a second about that. Often talk about how hard it is to be successful. Now let me let me point it to you this way. Success is hard, But ain't not being successful just as hard? Trying to make a success of yourself. It really is hard. But as I look back on my life, not being successful, what's just as hard. So you know, man, I started thinking about that too, and how people will resign themselves to not striving for success because of how difficult it is. But when you don't strive for success and you resign to yourself and you just resign yourself to a life of mediocrity, then ain't that hard too? I mean, man, I've done them both, and I gotta tell you, man, it's hard. It's hard not following through with your dreams. It's hard waking up not wanting to pursue anything. It's hard, man, watching other people's dreams come true in yours not. It's hard to watch everybody get up and go to work and you laying at the house. It's hard, man, I've just found it to be hard. Now, listen to me. I'm not knocking anybody if you're temporarily in that situation, because I've been in them all and when you are today, it's very very temporary. It's not a lasting thing. So I'm not knocking a person. I'm just talking about the comparison of the two when it was happening to me, because it's all happened to me. I was very unhappy at that. I was struggling, and even though being successful created a whole new set of struggles, that was an upside to it too. There is an upside of the effort of being successful. There are a few things, man, that you can count on. It's such a pleasure when you're striving for success. One of the great pleasures is waking up or ending the day and having a sense of accomplishment. You know, to be able to say, you know what, man, I gave it my all today. Wow, I didn't finish everything I set out to do, but I gave it my all today. Or you could say, hey, man, you know what, man, I got real close to completing them tasks today. Man I can't wait to get them, get at it tomorrow, or hey, man, I knocked off half of the things on my list today. I tried to get three, but I got two. Good. One's done. Man, God, I show appreciate you. The sense of accomplishment from striving to be successful. That's rewarding in itself. I tell you something else I like about it, too, striving for success. It makes you feel like you're progressing. You know, it gets tough when your life is stagnant, when you just feel like a hamster on the wheel. But if you can accomplish just one thing every day towards your goal, if you can just make out your list of things to do and get two of them things accomplished that day, don't you know when you go to bed at night, you could feel like, man, I made some progress. You're not gonna wake up tomorrow and it's all gonna happen for you. I wish it happened that way, I really really do, because I would have been through striving a long time ago. But I'm constantly striving because I'm constantly aiming for something. So I love At the end of the day, I have accomplished a couple of things, and I get to feel a sense of progress. I tell you something else that I enjoy about it too. It makes me feel hopeful, man. Striving for success gives me hope that one day I can hit it. Striving for success gives me the hope that, one day, man, this dream of mine could come true. That right there alone, faith is a substance of things hoped for. That's a scripture that's very valuable. And one other thing I'd like to leave you with. You know what striving for success does. Gives you a sense of pride. You can wake up, look at your children, look at yourself, look at your mother and your father, look at your friends, and you could have your chest stuck out because you know what, I'm striving. I'm on track. I may not be there right now, but I'm in the fight. I might not have wanted yet, but I'm in the fight man. So a sense of accomplishment, the feeling of progress, the joy of having hope, and a sense of pride makes striving for success a whole lot simpler. Do your best, y'all, talk to God every day. He'd love to hear from you. Okay, those are my closing remarks. Bye for All Steve Harvey contests No purchase necessary, void where prohibited.
