Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo. Yo, yo, yo, it's your boy

00:00:08.539 --> 00:00:11.859
Quincy Murdoch with another episode of Not Just

00:00:11.859 --> 00:00:15.839
Music Podcast. Well, we keep it real and honest.

00:00:17.760 --> 00:00:19.839
So that being said, we're going to keep it real

00:00:19.839 --> 00:00:22.059
and honest. And I'm going to ask y 'all a personal

00:00:22.059 --> 00:00:26.219
question because August has approached. We're

00:00:26.219 --> 00:00:31.010
past mid year of the year. holidays are coming

00:00:31.010 --> 00:00:33.829
towards the end of the year holidays are coming

00:00:33.829 --> 00:00:36.909
up and I really want to ask a question and I

00:00:36.909 --> 00:00:39.909
really want y 'all to really think seriously

00:00:39.909 --> 00:00:43.869
honestly of this question because love is a beautiful

00:00:43.869 --> 00:00:46.729
thing family is a beautiful thing it's supposed

00:00:46.729 --> 00:00:50.469
to be a beautiful thing holidays are made to

00:00:50.469 --> 00:00:54.469
be a beautiful thing with your family so I want

00:00:54.469 --> 00:01:01.100
to ask from January 1st to now How many of you

00:01:01.100 --> 00:01:05.879
can say that family has been family? Like, a

00:01:05.879 --> 00:01:09.659
couple words. Like, been there. They've been

00:01:09.659 --> 00:01:14.719
there to talk to. Been there to support you.

00:01:16.560 --> 00:01:22.159
How much all of that? I want to know. Maybe y

00:01:22.159 --> 00:01:24.519
'all can leave the comments on the bottom of

00:01:24.519 --> 00:01:27.540
this. But I was just thinking to myself, because

00:01:27.540 --> 00:01:33.090
it's weird. Made lunch today for work and I made

00:01:33.090 --> 00:01:37.090
a box of stuffing. I love stuffing. I love turkey.

00:01:37.269 --> 00:01:41.409
I love all the Thanksgiving foods. And it's not

00:01:41.409 --> 00:01:47.069
Thanksgiving. A lot of Thanksgiving foods. It

00:01:47.069 --> 00:01:49.730
made me think about Thanksgiving, a time where

00:01:49.730 --> 00:01:54.129
family is actually valued more than the rest

00:01:54.129 --> 00:01:57.760
of the whole year. I don't know why. there'll

00:01:57.760 --> 00:02:04.540
be value every day with family um love so uh

00:02:04.540 --> 00:02:09.360
wanted to get into that um about family love

00:02:09.360 --> 00:02:15.919
and um holidays me being a person um i am as

00:02:15.919 --> 00:02:19.099
i got older uh really didn't sit well with me

00:02:19.099 --> 00:02:24.379
because i felt like for example christmas i feel

00:02:24.379 --> 00:02:27.969
like Every day you're giving. Well, a good parent

00:02:27.969 --> 00:02:32.150
is giving their kids something every day. Like

00:02:32.150 --> 00:02:35.909
there's a place to stay and shelter where there's

00:02:35.909 --> 00:02:40.150
food to eat, whether it's for all your wants

00:02:40.150 --> 00:02:46.770
and needs. You know, yeah. Blessing. And I think

00:02:46.770 --> 00:02:51.569
Christmas makes kids or people in general feel

00:02:51.569 --> 00:02:57.310
like. all the stuff that parents go through and

00:02:57.310 --> 00:03:01.009
do and sacrifice means nothing for this one day

00:03:01.009 --> 00:03:04.669
and it's like they feel like you owe them something

00:03:04.669 --> 00:03:08.590
like you haven't been giving them things pretty

00:03:08.590 --> 00:03:11.349
much out the year so i felt like you know kind

00:03:11.349 --> 00:03:15.889
of been um missed for me lately like i got older

00:03:15.889 --> 00:03:18.610
as i started living life because i feel like

00:03:18.610 --> 00:03:21.430
once you live life you grow and you're on your

00:03:21.430 --> 00:03:24.979
own Yeah, you start having your own kids and

00:03:24.979 --> 00:03:28.020
you start being responsible, responsible adult.

00:03:28.120 --> 00:03:35.560
You start understanding. Sacrifices and you start

00:03:35.560 --> 00:03:38.240
appreciating the things that you didn't appreciate

00:03:38.240 --> 00:03:44.280
when you were a child, you were young. I think

00:03:44.280 --> 00:03:51.310
that's also unique thing. I feel like you. uh

00:03:51.310 --> 00:03:55.189
should be appreciative more of and thankful of

00:03:55.189 --> 00:03:59.870
you know um but like if you have family out there

00:03:59.870 --> 00:04:03.969
right now and you haven't contacted them to this

00:04:03.969 --> 00:04:06.330
point and we're in august you need to pick up

00:04:06.330 --> 00:04:08.870
that phone and call them you should talk to them

00:04:08.870 --> 00:04:13.430
um give your family value your friends your true

00:04:13.430 --> 00:04:16.689
friends value life while you have it because

00:04:16.689 --> 00:04:19.819
it's not promised You know, moment type of guy.

00:04:20.000 --> 00:04:24.379
You live in the moments. I feel like nothing

00:04:24.379 --> 00:04:26.600
is guaranteed. You're not guaranteed to wake

00:04:26.600 --> 00:04:29.399
up tomorrow. So you have to enjoy the moment.

00:04:29.540 --> 00:04:32.319
You have to live in the moment. Live to the best

00:04:32.319 --> 00:04:35.240
of your ability. A lot of people just live like

00:04:35.240 --> 00:04:38.980
tomorrow's promise. Oh, I'll do it next year.

00:04:39.339 --> 00:04:43.100
Or I'll do it next month. Or I'll call them tomorrow.

00:04:43.420 --> 00:04:46.459
What if there's no tomorrow? What if there's

00:04:46.459 --> 00:04:51.649
no next month? Love, love, love, love on you.

00:04:51.750 --> 00:04:54.850
Love, love, love, love on your people, man. Because

00:04:54.850 --> 00:05:00.430
I'm leaving here. Situations are changing. Those

00:05:00.430 --> 00:05:04.129
happy moments. As those are not promised to always

00:05:04.129 --> 00:05:06.529
be happy. You see a lot of people going through.

00:05:08.550 --> 00:05:12.129
And you see a lot of people going through times

00:05:12.129 --> 00:05:15.730
financially. It's hard out here. Parents, single

00:05:15.730 --> 00:05:19.870
people. Rent is going up. Prices are high. Food

00:05:19.870 --> 00:05:24.189
is high. And it's always a positive because we

00:05:24.189 --> 00:05:28.449
always have our Lord Jesus Savior with us. With

00:05:28.449 --> 00:05:33.269
him, all things can change. And with faith, you

00:05:33.269 --> 00:05:36.209
can change. And anybody out there that's feeling

00:05:36.209 --> 00:05:40.430
discouraged, always know that it's always light

00:05:40.430 --> 00:05:46.129
at the end of the tunnel. Always do better. And

00:05:46.129 --> 00:05:48.870
it's always better if you just keep the faith

00:05:48.870 --> 00:05:51.850
and you just keep working. Your dream without

00:05:51.850 --> 00:05:58.329
work is just a dream. There's a little topic

00:05:58.329 --> 00:06:04.810
about, you know, tie that in. Just check up on

00:06:04.810 --> 00:06:08.870
the year, how the year has been. Your family

00:06:08.870 --> 00:06:10.949
checked up on you. How have you been? Are you

00:06:10.949 --> 00:06:14.129
happy? Are you mentally there? satisfied with

00:06:14.129 --> 00:06:18.810
your progress and that you've done to this far.

00:06:19.129 --> 00:06:21.769
If you're not satisfied, you still have five,

00:06:21.910 --> 00:06:25.470
six more months to go. Time is a step that we

00:06:25.470 --> 00:06:28.529
can get closer to where we're trying to be as

00:06:28.529 --> 00:06:32.689
people. So it's never too late. You can start

00:06:32.689 --> 00:06:35.629
right now. You can start watching this video.

00:06:36.149 --> 00:06:39.069

00:06:39.069 --> 00:06:42.329
