Hey, I just found the news and I know him
a little bit late, but our IRV Gott he passed
and I just wanted to send out condolencens to his family.
I didn't know him well, we weren't close to anything.
The last memory I had IRV Gotti, we were standing
together on the crap table in the Bahamas and me
(00:27):
and this dude man just had a good time. Man.
That's the only memory. I've talked with him several times
before that, backstage, but that was my only memory. But man,
just a really really cool guy that I found. And
I just wanted to send condolencens out to his family
and friends. That's gonna miss him, man, because that brother
was you know, he was a good dude for me.
(00:48):
I don't get into what everybody else know and thinking
all like that. I just want to say condolences to
the family, so IRV Gotti Man, good brother. Also. In closing,
you know I want to do I just want to
encourage everybody. You know what I want to say, folks,
you can do it. You can do it. You can
(01:09):
make it. You gonna be alright. You have just got
to understand that whatever it is you're going through, it's temporary.
Always remember this. You know, I was watching this thing
on television one time and they had a bunch of
old actors sitting around the Niro al Pacinos, this group
of guys, I think Jamie Fox was in the room
and something. But Tom Hank said something, and the question was,
(01:33):
if you could tell your younger self something, what would
you tell him? And Tom Hank said, I would tell
my younger self that this too show pass, because man,
And I said, wow, that really hit me because when
I go back over my life and I think about
all of the situations I faced and how I felt
(01:55):
while facing them, and the pressure and the anxiety that
I went through while going through it. If I would
have just told myself this too shall pass, I could
have handled it a little bit better. But you know
what happens to us, man. We get in these situations,
and we find ourselves in these circumstances, and we just
(02:18):
thinks we're the only one, and we just think it
will never end, and we just go, oh, woe is me,
and we bury ourselves with why could this How could
this happen? Why did it happen? Why me? How come? Who?
I wish I never had a We start overthinking this thing.
If I would have only known that this too shall pass,
(02:42):
because it always does, y'all. Now, I will admit there
are times we are in some situations and we think
it's lasting way longer than it should. I'm in one
right now, and I'm convinced it has lasted way longer
than it should. But you know what, this too shall pass.
You're going to be okay, You're going to be all right.
(03:07):
Stop beating yourself up because you're going through something, because
I got news for you. Everybody go through something. Everybody
go through something. But stop allowing your pass and your
current situation to determine your future because you don't know
how this is gonna paying out. Most of the stuff
that you know. You suffer from anxiety from two things.
(03:28):
Number one, you're worrying about something you have no control over.
And then number two, it's either something that's happened in
your past or something in your future. That's what anxiety is,
and you have no control over either one. As hard
as it is, get yourself to understanding that God is
(03:49):
working on your behalf that no matter how dismal it
looks for you right now, it will be over. Some days.
This tool shall pass, o man, oh man, it does, y'all.
It does. And sometimes it passes and it's over, and
you don't even realize it's over, because you know what,
(04:09):
you burying yourself with the next thing that then came up,
and you don't even realize, you know what, this new
thing that I'm dealing with, that old thing is gone,
and you didn't even take the time to thank God
forgetting you through that. And when you don't have gratitude,
gratitude produces amnesia. I found. You know, if you don't,
(04:34):
if you don't start being grateful, if you don't constantly
make a constant list of things God has done for you,
things you've overcome, things you've gotten passed. If you don't
make a constant list of that, folks, you develop amnesia
and you'll forget just how good God has been to you.
You will start to diminish all of the wonderful things
(04:58):
you've accomplished. You know. Every now and then, man, I
got to really look at my life and I got
to really go my God, what you've done for me
I could not have done for myself. You've done then
and thinking for me. You've put me in positions I
never ever even dreamed of being in. And it's all relative, y'all,
(05:19):
And I'm sure you can do the same thing. Don't
wait till you rich to be grateful, because I'm gonna
tell you right now the things I'm most grateful too,
was long before fame and money. Man. I had two
loving parents, I started having children. I was in shape,
I could run, man, Man, I had a lot of
(05:41):
stuff I had, So y'all listen to me. Just remember
this too shall pass. You gonna be fine. It's gonna
be a okay. You just got to get with the
business of believing God is in the blessing business. Those
of my clothes remarks. I have a good one today, y'all.
Go frilling Eagles all the way favorite. Don't put nobody.
