Y'all know what time to I don't know. Y'all back a suit, looking back to back down, giving them more like the milling buck things in its cubbing me true good it Steve Harten to move together for ste Please don't you join join? Be you doing me? You gotta turn hurt? You are you gotta turn to turn them out, turning, got to turn them out, then turn the water the water go. Come come on your fat it huh? I sure will a good morning everybody. Y're listening to the voice, Come on dig me nw one it only Steve Harvey got a radio show today. I want to just share something with you along your way to wherever it is you're trying to get to. You know, everybody has a different definition for success, and I'm not. I'm not here to tell you what your should be. I mean, please pursue whatever you think success He is aim as high as you can though, that's for sure. My father used to say all the time. I'm sure you all have heard it in different variations, but he used to always say, aim for the moon. Just in case you miss, you'll still be amongst the stars. Just say that to me all the time. So that always was in me to aim high. Now he wasn't saying aim with the intent to miss. He was just saying aim In case you miss, you're still amongst the stars. If you aim for the moon. But if you just aim for that first flow window and you miss it, you know, usually run into some type of wall and nothing happens. You slither down. You know. In my book, act like a lady, think like a man. I told her people that men love three ways. They profess, they provide, they protect, and that's the core essence of a man's love. Well, there's some other peas in life too. The number one thing you have to understand about trying to be successful, and I guess I call this the four peas. I may come up with five along the way. I don't know. I'm just talking as is given to me. So I'm gonna summer start by saying, as these are the four peas of success that you have to get ready for. Number one, it's pressure. A lot of it is applied by the circumstance of what you're trying to go for and what you're trying to do, but a lot of it also is self imposed pressure. It's what you put on yourself to make it. It's a sense of urgency, it's a sense of necessity. But pressure is the first thing I want you to be ready for. And pressure comes in a lot of different forms, but it's going to be pressured. As an old saying that pressure buster pipe. See, that's why most people turn around, because of the pressure of trying to be successful. I want you to get it in your mind that it is going to be a pressure rized situation on your rise to the top. Pressure, but understand that that is what it is. Is not going to change. That's it. Prepare yourself, get ready for there to be pressure. The second thing I want you to understand is when you receive this pressure, you have to persist. You got to stay at it. You got to develop a dog getness has a There's a song who says, why must I feel like that? Why must I chase the cat? Nothing but the dog in me? That's a funny line in that song, because really I was thinking about it one day. I was humming it and and it, and it occurred to me, said, why must I feel like that? Why must I chase the cat? Nothing but the dog get me? And you know, now you could take it into literal says that the cat chases the dog because it's innately is in his spirit. That cats and dogs are a lot of time enemies. Now people have pets in him, proving that if you show love on both sides, they can exist. And that happens too, but naturally innately, when your cat goes by a dog and your dog don't recognize him, that some barking going on. I'm talking about just walking through the neighborhood or something. So, but the reason that this dog is so persistent towards this cat is just cause it's in him. It's innately in him. And what I'm saying to you, just using that as an analogy, is that you got to be you got to be persistent in that. You got to develop some dog in you now because pressure takes some fighting back. See if you don't fight back against pressure, pressure buster pipes, So what you think it will do to you? Pressure crack walls, pressure calls, explosions. So if you don't fight back to hold it in, you understand pressure does most people in the simple thing called pressure, the weight of what it feels like to want to be successful every single day, over and over and over and over and over. It's just too much pressure. People crack. You got to persist. You have to persist. You can the thought of giving up can come, but you got to get it out. You gotta persist. The next thing I want you to think about is another something that I've been thinking about for years and learn for years. It's called perseverance. To persist means to insist. Its keyword in insist and persistence insists you must. You must insist that this is going to happen. Now, the persist I'm assuming means it's a proaction. It's some type of proaction that you go toward. Is it to make it? You know, persist you gotta be persistent. You gotta be constantly at insisting that it happens. You gotta be constantly at it. But the next thing I want you to remember is perseverance. Perseverance is important. Perseverance means that when you've done your best, when you've persisted, when you're fighting back against the pressure. Perseverance simply means I'm going to hang in here when if a crack come into pipe, I'm gonna hang in there. If the pipe bust, I'm gonna keep going. If I gotta put duct, take mud, whatever I got to put on this thing. Man, I'm gonna use perseverance. I'm going to stay with it no matter what. So we're looking at the three things again. You got to understand that it's gonna be pressure that you're gonna have to persist. Keyword and persistence insist. You have to insist that no matter what the pressure is, I'm gonna stay with it. But then perseverance. If it goes wrong, Man, you got to get in there and keep fighting. But then Lord Him Mercy. Nothing helps you handle the three peas better than the fourth pea. You got to pray. You got to use prayer. You gotta talk to God. You gotta use faith. You gotta have some conferences with him late at night, early in the morning, in the middle of the afternoon, when you own the train, when you're driving. You got to talk to God. Man, you gotta get yourself some help along the way. Nothing is bigger than prayer. There is nothing bigger than prayer. Prayer will help you overcome the pressure. Prayer will help you stay persistent, and Lord Him Mercy, prayer will help you persevere. Them is the faux pas that just came to me today. God gave that to me. I'm passing it onw all right, everybody's five, ten, fifteen, twenty five thirty. I see Shelly start. I see over there high and I see shelling star. I see, I see a color for rel.

Well i'll tell you what I did. Remember we went to Mexico and we zip line. Oh yeah, that was fun. Fun, that was fun. That scared me because Junior and Jay I thought you could just do it one time and be through, but you have to do the course back back. It's a course, so we had to do it like twelve times. You have to go to each station and your zip lining over a Mexican jungle. And I remember this little girl was behind me. She was like maybe eight, and she was searless. I remember that girl. She was so sick of me. Jay. She was there with her parents. She kept saying, good lady, stupid. Yeah girl. She was like every lady. Every time you're scared, you just want to say to the kid, look, I'm paying for everything you ask for free. Shut up.

After weeks negotiation, the Justice Department has finally agreed to provide the Congress with the key evidence collected in the Mulla Report, evidence that could shed light on possible obstruction of justice and abuse of power by President Trump. Not just what the Justice Department has agreed to provide is not clear. However, the House Judiciary Committee, which asked for the extra material, is indicating that the Justice Department moves a real breakthrough. So it also looks as if the House will back away from threats to hold US Attorney William Barr, who use Attorney General rather William Barr, in contempt of Congress, even though the House of schedule will proceed later today with a vote to empower the Judiciary Committee to take Bar to court to fully enforce its subpoena, even though again that may not longer be met necessary, but they're probably gonna take a vote anyway. The stock market bounced back yesterday after President Trump didn't fall through on his threat to impose escalating tariffs on all Mexican goods. But the presidentel CNBC hey make no mistake, it was because of his threat. He says that our neighbor to the south agreed to do more to curb the flow of migrats with Central America. If we didn't have tariffs, we wouldn't have made a deal with Mexico. We got everything we wanted, and we're going to be a great partner to Mexico now because now they respect us. US business leaders, even some Republicans had criticized the idea of saying it would have had a negative effect on both our economies. But now Trump is also threatening to slap tariffs on China unless he can get a deal that he wants out of them.

Yeah, he saw a little Kim and Janet's birthday party and Janet after after your friends dropped the Mike name, We're him and Teddy Radley got through. Coming up next at thirty four after the hour of the NBA Finals. Whoa, this is a this is something people didn't expect telling the Raptors versus the Warriors. What come on, you're listening to Steve Harvey Morning Show. All right, junior, you are here the sports. Oh my gosh, we still got some basketball. It's so low basketball. It shouldn't have been one o six to one oh five. Golden State Warrior pulled it off. Oh my god, man, all that was close. I feel for Toronto they were right there. I'm like they lost that game. Team. Yeah. You know what, man, when you when you got a team like Golden State down three to one, you're supposed to go on on finish deal and you at home, you're supposed to finish the finish that. And then Kevin Durant played the game where he got he gave that a limp. If they don't hit that eleven from Kevin, they lose, Yeah, because boy, he was on fire. Yeah, you know, I'm much about basketball. They're Canada with the USA Okay, that's all I'm going on. They're Canada with the USA. Got to do with in Canada? Were what do you say? Has got nothing to do with basketball? They're in Canada. What you're trying to say, they're out the country? Okay, So Junior tell us about Okay, so you watched the game last night? Yeah, so what happened? I mean, I agree with Tommy Toronto, they're supposed to close. It was, you know, Clay Thompson hit a big shot with fifty six seconds left in the game and that gave them one on six, one on three lead, and I'm telling you that was big. But then it was some de Marcus could we had the game and you fick you had an illegal pick that gave the ball back to Toronto. But then they threw the ball away right after that, So now you got that's two turnovers under a minute. You can't have that. That's They're Canada. And where do you shut up? And did you see Monica sing me singer Monica? Yeah, she did the national anthem and oh because because she's going no, look, Junior, let her get through what she's going through. Hey three through a regular paper. The ink on the papers aren't even dry yet. The olders put in, that's what you need to understand, the oldest end. So when you come out, there's somebody outside, I will be out at the courthouse. What they say? So what you think now, Tommy, Game six Oakland, Junie, I'm still I'm still pulling for Toronto. I'm still man. I still think they're gonna pull it off. They have won, they won what two games in um in Golden States, So it's doable. It's doable. Yeah, you know an old pen. How you say, how y'all going against your own country? This because we're Rockets fans and Golden State always thank you beat the Rockets. So we cheered. We cheered for Toronto, the East, whoever in the East, anybody. It could have been Philadelphia, we don't care. Laukee, we didn't care. No, No, we're gonna I think it's I think it's gonna go seven games, though, I really do at this point, I don't want it to, but I think it's gonna be seven. I don't think Kevin Durant coming back. No, No, he was all crutches. Yeah he's done. He gave it a good shot though. No, what you saw last night was Kevin Durant's last game as as a warrant. You think he gonna where New York, New York?

You said that, and I said, this is all Kyrie. Urban's absolutely because that's the true Kie would have stayed in Cleveland. We would have none of these none of it where Kyrie. Oh, I don't know one thing why he ain't. After every game I always called Junior, was this a loss? Or yeah? He do right here that that was a loss. That was two teams. That's a lost one h six one five. You can't play it, nobody, Wow, you know, and then you both live, just fight another day. So you got to see.

Have you realized that, Yes, I know, I'm sorry about that, but uh you know, yes I have, I have my reasons. So okay, okay, Well here's what's going on. The officials at the church have gotten together and this is what they've decided on, is that anybody who is late starting next Sunday, there would be a fifteen dollars charge for that for coming in and disrupting services fastest, the fastest tide of service being disrupted by people walking in late. That that could not come at a worst time. I don't have fifteen dollars to give. Look, I'm sorry, I'm sorry that we late. We are doing our best. Have three young kids two seven and nine, and they are a handful, and we do the best that we can to get the church on time, and to tell you the truth, when we get there, it's doing praise and worships. I mean, past they ain't even preaching yet, so I know it's not Pastor's not up yet, but he's he's stating that people coming in. It just seems very disrupted to the service that's going on. That's so. Nevertheless, like I said, this is a warning call, you know, to let you know that if you are late on next Sunday, then they will be charging you fifteen dollars a late charge and actually you won't be able to even come in you until your papers dollars. I can't even get in church with we Look, okay, look, I don't owe nothing. I don't owe you no explanation, but I need to tell you something.

If you need advice on relationships, on dating, work, sex, parenting, and more, please submit your Strawberry Letter to Steve Harvey FM dot com and click submit Strawberry Letter. I gotta say this really really quickly. You know, I was in Atlanta over the weekend at the Alma G. Davis Foundation tenth anniversary celebration. Why was everyone coming up to me asking me about the letter we did last week where the sister in law was doing her brother in law and two kids. They were like, come on, Shirley, come on now, come on, did you guys? Yeah? Did you guys make that? I know so many people stop me about that one particular letter. Well, here's another one. Okay, here's another one. You're ready, let's go buckle up and hold on tight. We got it for you. Here it is subject there's turmoil in my congregation. Dear Stephen, Shirley, Since you help everyone, I hope you can help me too. I have been the senior pastor of my congregation for thirteen years, and lately I've been having a problem with an associate minister. He is forty one years old and he is on his fourth marriage. Now. His current marriage is in shambles because he has left his wife and moved in with one of the older sisters of the church. He told his wife that he was leaving her, but none of us in the church had any idea it would be Sister Joanne that he moved in with. Joanne is fifty six and single, and she knows this man is married, and she knows his wife, but they are not close. When things hit the fan a month ago, I offered them both counseling and advised them that what they were doing was wrong. I told sister that she is shacking up with a married man, and I told him it was wrong to just leave his wife like that and to cause her this kind of embarrassment. It has caused such a big stir at the church that I had to tell him that he could no longer preach there. Sister joe Anne still comes to church like nothing has happened, and this Sunday she stopped me after church and told me she is very happy and they have plans to get married as soon as he gets out of his fourth marriage. This man can't keep a job and he doesn't have anything to add to Joe Anne's life. I hope and pray if they don't think I'm going to marry them. I don't know how to handle this type of turmoil. So I have turned to you, Steve. What do I do? I want to put them both out of the church. Well, that's not a bad suggestion, Senior pastor, that is not a bad suggestion. You are the senior pastor, which means you're the leader of the church. You're the shepherd. You know, supposedly what you say goes. You have a staff of ministers. You guys, can you have one of those meetings and you can talk about this situation because if it's causing turmoil and division in your church, that's not a good thing. Okay. You have a direct line to the Lord. You were called by God, so you need to pray seriously about this situation and ask him how you should handle it. If you don't put them out of the church, you can certainly sit him down and not let him preach anymore as associate minister. And does he know the Bible? Is he reading it at all? There's stuff in there about what he's doing. It's in the Bible, okay, and he's in the church and preaching to people. This is his fourth wife, No, his fourth marriage, and he's working on number five now. If he reads the Bible. I think one of the scriptures says a man who doesn't work shouldn't eat. You say, this man can't keep a job. What is he going to offer, Sister Joanne? What is he offered his wife, his current wife and all these other women. Yeah, you need to sit him down. This is on you, senior pastor. It's your church, okay. Like I said, you are the leader of this congregation. You have to get your members in line. Okay. Your responsibility part of it as a pastor is to teach the Bible, okay, And this stuff is in there. So you need to do some more studying, I would suggest, so you can hear from the Lord and see what he'll tell you about handling this situation. Put them out, set them down all of those things, pray for them, do not. I'm with you. I don't think you should marry them at all. I hope they don't even ask you. If they don't understand what they're doing wrong, there's a problem. I mean, they're breaking ten commandments. I mean, there's so much sin going on here. You know, this is crazy, and you got to sit them down and tell them right from wrong. Don't they know right from wrong? Because they certainly don't act like they do. And it's on you. Yeah, if you want to put them both out of the church, you probably should because they're not listening to you. They're not and it's not coming from you. You're the vessel from the Lord. All right, Jack put him out, the church. Put him out. The church cut him out. The church division and turmoil. And pastor's job is to pastor. His job it is to pastor. Pastor means to look over, governing everybody in there. The one phrase that I really remember in the Bible that really stands out for me is judge, not let she be judged. Jesus hung out with thieves, liars, murderers, backsliders. I'm talking about the disciples. He hung out with them. People. Who are you to judge a man that's happy with an older Who are you you, crazy man? Who are you to judge a man that has found some happiness and I'm an older woman. Judge not pasta said the man who has been married ten thousand. Open the book and pasta, that's what you need to do, and passed. Open the book and passed. Jay, there is such thing as right and wrong, and you know that open. I don't think he's I don't think he's doing that though. I didn't think he's opening the book. I really don't. That's what you need to do, past because they wouldn't look and passed. They would either at least know better if he was doing said the man who's ignorant. All right, listen, we'll be back. We'll come back and hear from the young one on the team, junior. We'll hear from Tommy as well. That's coming up at twenty three after the hour, Part two of Today's Strawberry Letter. There's turmoil in my congregation. Right after this, you're listening to this Stave Harvey Morning Show. All right, guys, let's recap today's Strawberry Letter. This is a very interesting one subject. There's turmoil in my congregation. This letter was written by the senior pastor. He's been the senior pastor for thirteen years. Lately, he's having a problem with his associate associate minister. Associate minister forty one years old, has been married four times, getting ready to leave his fourth wife and hook up with one of the older sisters in the church. He has left his wife. He has moved in with this older young lady. Like I said, the associate pastor forty one years old, he's moving in with Sister Joanne, who's fifty six and single. Sister Joanne knows his wife. They are not close. Senior pastor in the meantime has told them both, advise them that what they're doing is wrong. Shacking up with a man, she told Sister Joanne is not what she should be doing. This man can't keep a steady job, he has no plans to help you during the marriage, and what are you marrying him for? And Sister joe Anne, she's saying, it's just clueless. She's just told her that she's so happy and she can't wait till he gets out of his fourth marriage so he can marry her. And pretty much that's where we are. And the senior pastor says he or she doesn't know how to handle this, and she wants to put both of them out of the church. I said, yeah, go ahead and put both of them out of the church, or at least sit both of them down. And Jay said, judge not and now and the senior pastor is a leader and the shepherd of the church. So I mean, you know, instruction comes from God and he passes out on to the congregation. They're not listening to him. I'm with Jim past but he is an opportunity to grow our congregation. See he's missing in an opportunity. I know it's term more, but there's opportunity internal. See what you need to open that book and pass and your sermons should be about them too, because everybody in that note And so I came up with some sermon, titler, you can speak on uh huh such ass shocking up and stepping out. This this this sermon in his day is shocking up and stepping out. Oh this one might work too. Uh this morning, I want to come to y'all. We're talking about uh, cheating in the next few Yeah yeah, chat in the next pew. Uh how about this? Uh, my man, your husan, this is some sermon tyler. He can use help. I like this with two Jezebels, stay close, we got some sermon. He got another with two ohay, if you're thinking lonely night, wait until tonight tonight. Yeah, preach on it. Here's another one. You got too up, solom and go mora in your home. And the last sermon, I think he could probably preach on that a properly effective grown this compregation another's woman trash. He's another woman's trash. Come on, if loving you a wrong, I think he's just looking at it wrong. Yeah, looking at talk about the term one in your comregation. I agree with you, guys. I definitely think it's the pastor because he's a leader. All right, come on, nephew, with another sermon. Excuse me about wood. This is dicking dep cham in the building.

Not at all? Uh? Yeah, it's the most stressed city in the US, with seventy six percent of residents say they are at least somewhat stressed each day, only six percent saying they have no stress at all. Why do you think do you think the traffic, Yeah, definitely, the traffic, the housing, the cost of housing, cost of living, yeah, yes, and the transit system is it's horrible. Yeah, you never know. I don't know how LA stressed. The whole dog gonna city spelled like a bag of week. Maybe that's why, Maybe that is why it's illegal here. Yeah, because it's traffic in LA. No matter when you go out there, it's traffic. So yeah, it's crazystem Yeah, Well they're building one. They're they're building it now, they're in the process. Uh. Those in LA are so stressed out. They are the most likely out of the entire country to say their city is the hardest to live in, coming in just behind Los Angeles and stress levels. Yeah, New York. Yeah, I thought New York would be number one, where seventy two percent of people say they deal with stress each day. It's followed by Chicago. Uh, it's followed sixty five percent, then Miami sixty four percent, then Dallas forty eight, San Francisco forty four. So, uh, you know, we could There's so many reasons. I guess why LA is so stressed. The next said the rent here man. Yeah, the crust of living. It's so ridiculous, it is. Yeah, and there's gentrification going on everywhere in Los Angeles, everywhere in Los Angeles. So can I just say something. When that little white girl with a ponytail go buy your house, your taxes is going up. Okay, job When she jobbed past your house in the morning, your taxes is going up.

It will bring no joy to the person you love so much if you you hate in her name, I have to agree with her on that. Yeah, if they do her too, yeah care.

Yeah, all right, more of the Steve Harvey Morning Show and Trending News coming up at thirty three after the hour. Right after this, you're listening Steve Harvey Morning Show. All right, Junior, you are here. Oh my gosh, we still got some low basketball. It's so low basketball. One o six to one, oh five, Golden State Warrior pulled it off. Oh my god. I feel for Toronto. They were right there. When you got a team like Golden State down three to one, you're supposed to go on on finish deal and you at home, you're supposed to finish the finish that. Okay, so you watched the game last night, Yeah, so what happened? I mean, I agree with Tommy Toronto. They're supposed to close. It was you know, Clay Thompson hit a big shot with fifty six seconds left in the game and that gave them one o six, one h three lead. And I'm telling that was big. But then it was some de markets because we had the game and you five, you had an illegal pick that gave the ball back to Toronto. But then they threw the ball away right after that. So now that's two turnovers under a minute. You can't have that, Canada. And where do you And did you see Monica Singey singer Maskah, Yeah, she did the national anthem and listening. Oh, because because she's going no, look, Junior, let her get through where she's going through. Hey, he's talking about three two already. The paper, the ink on the papers aren't even dry yet. The oldest put in That's what you need to understand. The oldest is so when you come out, there's somebody outsat I will be out at the court of what they say. So what you think now, Tommy Game six Oakland, Julie, I'm still I'm still pulling for Toronto. I'm still man, I still think they're gonna pull it off. They have won they won what two games in um in Golden States. So it's doable. It's doable. Yeah, you know, an old pen. What you saying? How are y'all going against your own country because we're Rockets fans and Golden State always be thank you beat the Rockets, so we cheer. We cheer for Toronto, the East, whoever the East, anybody. It could have been Philadelphia, we don't care. Waukee, we didn't care. No, No, we're gonna I think it's I think it's gonna go seven games, though, I really do at this point. I don't think Kevin Durant coming back. No, he's he gave it a good shot though. No, what you saw last night was Kevin Durant's last game. As as a ward, he gone New York, New York. My husband said, probably go to New York, which is which is really good for him. Coming up, our last break of the day and some closing remarks that Steve left us with. You're listening, all right, Steve, here we go, last break of the day. Um, some parting words for with your closing remarks? Please all right, I guess without thinking about this much, I want to talk to you about life, how fragile it is, and I want to have something to say about you know what, I'm really not gonna get into the whole situation because, like I just be honest with you, there are times, there are actually times when I'm actually sick and tired of talking about it. I am exhausted with the fact that the color of my skin has to come into play in my everyday life, my just day to day. I don't know, I really can't think of any days realistically why I do not have to consider the color of my skin, the shape of my nose and my lips wherever I go. The situation I'm in, I very rarely can think of a day that I'm not made aware of it or I have to factor it in. If you're not a person of color or minority, you may not even be able to understand what I'm saying. But I'll just give you an example. When riding in the car and being stopped by the police, as me and my buddy Greg Calhoun was doing last year after golf out in coming from Montgomery to Alabama and his car and we were speeding and we were supposed to get pulled over. We were speeding, But what I had to do was immediately become aware that I am a black man. Skip your money in your fame. I don't have time to throw that out at you. I got to get and start preparing myself. As the officer approaches the car, I must understand without him getting my ID. I'm a black man, just a black man. So I put my hands up on the dashboard and the officer came to the passenger side and said, why is your hands on the dashboard? I said, because I don't want nothing to happen to me. The officer said, while that's acting mighty suspicious. I said, no, it's not. I'm just being safe. Officer. If you don't mind, she said, well, I'll need to see ID. I said, my ID happens to be in a pouch in the back seat. I would have to reach. She said, we'll go ahead, and I was tense because I didn't want to be mistaken. When I'm on an elevator and I get on, I am conscious of the fact that me and my guy are the only one on the elevator. When I go to golf courses and I oftentimes see that there are hardly any African Americans out here. It's just me and one or maybe the fours something that I'm playing with, and I'm just always aware of it. If you're not that, you don't have to be aware of it. But it's the awareness that becomes draining at times. It's the fact that you got to be the only one on your floor, the only one on the elevator, the only one in the cubicle, the only one in your department, the only one at the meeting, the only one in the cafeteria, the only one on the trip, the only one, the only one at the hotel, at the front desk, the only one, the only one, the only one's kids that's in the recital, the only one's kids that's at the that's on the soccer team, the only one, the only one, the only one, the only one. Gets to be exhausting at times. This will not change and to more people who are not of color can try to empathize or sympathize or generalize or something with us to say, you know what, I don't know how that feels, but I bet that ain't right because, as I've often said many times, slavery didn't end just because black people got sick of being slaves. We were sick of it, the thought of it. When they put us on them boats. Nobody wanted to ride the boat over here and come be no slaves. Nobody was under the belly of them slave ships, going, man, this is nice. This's gonna be a new opportunity nobody. So I want to wake up and just see what it feels like to just go about my day without having to calculate my race, without to have to calculate the color of my skin, to watch other people get paid a certain amount of money, and then you don't get paid a certain amount of money with the same type of ratings, and then you got to incorporate something else again. Now, I've been very blessed with the life that I have, and I would not trade mind for anything, with all this sick and tide of being sick and tied. Also, what makes this also tolerable for me is my love of who I am, my love of our power to overcome, our power to maintain in the struggle, our power to still be something where we were brought here to simply be nothing. So for us to have accomplished what we've accomplished, I'm grateful and awful proud of that. So I guess my pride just keeps me going on. I hope that God will continue to let whatever light that I can let shine through my existence to inspire someone else to overcome when it looked like you ain't gonna make it, because that's exactly what I've done, by the grace of God. I have overcome against all the odds, even when they said I wasn't gonna make it. And even though I'm tired of being tired, I wouldn't trade places and be nothing else, know how, because in this struggle has taught me so many items of strength. I've learned so much about myself. My soul is strong, My spirit is strong. I thank God for that soul. Y'all have a great weekend for all. Steve Harvey Contests No purchase necessary, void where prohibited.
