[00:00] Speaker 1: (instrumental music plays)

[02:02] Speaker 2: Aloha. Aloha. I love you (laughs) . How do we happily go about doing so much of what we want almost all of the time, period? And the same time in doing this, we can recognize if or when something or someone, some type of interference may be on the horizon, that we may need to shift another way, another direction, or to deflect completely. How do we stay in a frequency that we want to feel, that we want to be in? Some of us may do this because we're in a place that we know what we want, because it becomes clear and obvious what we don't want. And there may be some situations in our lives that are still there that are challenging, and a solution is not clear and apparent. And perhaps they're the habitual situations that continue even though it's not what we want for ourselves. Well, call in and tell us how you are creating and designing your life, and bringing in what you desire, or if there are challenging issues or situations that you are feeling.

[03:30] Speaker 2: And if you've never called in before, feel free to call in. 323-744-4331 and 888-627-6008. Again, 323-744-433- 323-744-4331 and 888-627-6008. Yes, again, thank you for being with us today. And also with us today is Beverly. And we would like to welcome you, Beverly. Thank you for being here. Earlier, we had an insightful conversations about timelines. Aloha, Beverly.

[04:22] Speaker 3: Aloha. And greetings to you, aloha, and to the audience. And I'm so, uh, grateful to be here today.

[04:33] Speaker 2: I'm glad you're here. Thank you. So we had a really insightful conversation about timelines earlier. And, and we talked about a few things, um, about how when we are living our lives in real time, about recognizing that we are at the brink of a timeline. Just as if we were driving our car and we're at a stop sign, we could either go straight, we could turn left or turn right. And that's kind of the way our life goes. At any moment in time, we can say, "Okay, what do I want to do next? How do I want to handle this?" Right?

[05:19] Speaker 2: (laughs)

[05:21] Speaker 3: (laughs) Exactly. Because, actually, there's no such thing as time. In reality, all you have is right now. And in that right now moment is when you make a decision. So, whatever you thought about previously, two weeks before, a day before, on February 21, or next week this is what I'm going to do. Or with your thinking about something in the future, the future doesn't exist.... and the past is dead. So, usually, for real, for real, you're going to have to make a decision in the now. So, it doesn't matter what you said yesterday. How are you going to handle that right now? So, that's what we were talking about earlier. If you decided yesterday or last week that on Saturday you're going to do whatever you wanted to do, but this is what you decided you're going to spend that day doing. Then, something comes in, somebody or something, for you to do something different.

[06:53] Speaker 3: So, in that moment, let's say somebody asks you to walk their dog or take them somewhere where you had knew that this day, you already know what you're going to do. So now, how are you going to react? Are you going to accommodate the person who wants you to do something other than what you planned for yourself? Or are you going to stick to what you planned for yourself? Now, that is the question, 'cause you have to do this in real time, which is the now. You can say something like, "Oh, let me think about it. I'll get back to you." You can do that in real time. Or you can make a decision. Now, the whole thing is, when you make that decision, it should be something that you're happy with, okay with, that you're not going to look at it later and be upset about it, or, "I shouldn't have done that." That's with dealing with things in the now, right. You know what I mean, Aloha? That's what we were talking about.

[08:35] Speaker 2: Yeah. Yes. A- and, and it could just be a simple phone call. You know, all of a sudden, out the blue, the phone rings. (laughs)

[08:43] Speaker 3: Exactly.

[08:43] Speaker 2: "Let me look at it again." (laughs)

[08:46] Speaker 3: So, it could take you off of what you were doing. So, it's like, what are you going to do right now? Are you going to say, "Can I call you back? I'm involved in something right now." Or do you let the phone call stop you from doing what you're doing, and then later be kind of upset about the fact that, "I didn't get done what I wanted to do." Now, we also discussed that there's a lot of reasons for that. One of the reasons that people may let their... what they want to do for themselves become secondary is they're used to certain types of behavior. They may be used to people pleasing. They may be used to keeping up a certain facade, like, "I'm always helping people." The thing about that is, that can cause you some not-so-good feelings later on. And learning that it's okay to celebrate yourself, it's okay if I want to do something other than what others want me to do.

[10:17] Speaker 3: So, I would hope that someone, or you guys out there, call in to tell me if you run into these experiences, where you have something that you want to do, and something or someone comes in to kind of usurp that plan, and you half-heartedly go through with it, or you do it because you really want to do it and put your... what you wanted to do on the back burner. So, yeah, give us, give us a call. The call number is (323) 744-4331, or (888) 627-6008. I would love to hear from you, me and Aloha, since a lot of times people go through life doing things other people want them to do instead of honoring themselves and the things that they want to get done, and realizing that there's nothing wrong with that. It's okay.

[11:38] Speaker 2: Yeah, sometimes I-

[11:41] Speaker 3: So, I would love to hear from you.

[11:42] Speaker 2: (laughs) Sorry. Sometimes I, I, um, love the spontaneous, um, uh, occurrences from others, especially people who I love. Sometimes, (laughs) you know, I look, and I'm like, "Oh, look who's calling." They always want to do something fun. But sometimes, um, I welcome, uh, the spontaneous calls, the spontaneous ideas from others, because it's...... oftentimes, there's things that I really wanna do with them, so that's the, the flip side of the timeline. Some timelines we, we love. We, (laughs) we, we wanna go hang out with that person, and we see that the... We see they're calling and, and sometimes we have to... when that phone rings, we, we can't take the call right now, because we're doing something and we can call them back later once we've completed what we're doing. And, and, and that brings up multitasking, um, (laughs) . Some people w- would create a list of things to do, things to do.

[12:46] Speaker 2: Some of them, they wanted to do, some of them, they don't and they get real good at it, and then one day, they realize, I don't wanna multitask. I don't wanna do all these things and enjoy now more. (laughs)

[13:01] Speaker 3: Exactly. Exactly, because like you said, sometimes you may have something planned and something unexpected comes up that's beautiful, wonderful. You're like, "Oh, wow. I would rather do this," and you're happy that you got that phone call or some- something came up, an event or something like that, and you're happy to put down what you were doing to do something else. So it's a lot of variables living in the present. It's a lot of variables, and it's beautiful living in the present, because sometimes, you may have something planned and you say, "You know what? Right now, it's better for me to just take a nap. It's just better for me to replenish myself and sit down, lay down or whatever for a moment." It's, it's, it's a beautiful thing when you can listen to yourself. That way, anything you ascribe to do for someone else, you do it happily with a smile on your face.

[14:36] Speaker 3: Even though you put down something, you do it out of the love in your heart, out of being healthful, out of the fact that I just wanna do this. That way, there's not regrets later on and ill feelings for doing things that you didn't really wanna do. And sometimes people live their lives like that, doing things other people want them to do, going places that they don't even really wanna be there, but they don't know how to say that. They just do it.

[15:18] Speaker 3: So-

[15:19] Speaker 2: Yeah. Uh-huh.

[15:21] Speaker 3: ... no, I'm just saying, so-

[15:22] Speaker 2: I was-

[15:22] Speaker 3: (laughs) . Go ahead, uh, Robin.

[15:27] Speaker 2: Go ahead. I was just, uh, thinking about, uh, in the family unit, how with some families, they're very much in synchronicity. So the, the, uh, you know, the... Everyone in the family kind of flows the same way, and, and they allow each other this freedom, and in some family situations, it feels very heavy. It feels like there's a lot of responsibility, and, and, and y- you don't really know how to get to where you wanna be, because of what is in the home that you live with. And, and some people live by themselves and, and it's a l- a little bit different.

[16:14] Speaker 2: I, I know people who, who have big families and they say, "Go to the other house where..." I'm in-

[16:25] Speaker 3: (laughs)

[16:26] Speaker 2: ... and it's like their sanctuary and have families and, and everything is just going beautifully between them. They can explain to each other what they want or how they wanna change things, and everybody gives them that and, and sometimes you, you go... You, you, it's kinda there with this family and, and how do you get to where you want? How do you get to where you wanna be around others who see things the way it used to be? Some people are with families and, and they all did things a certain way, and, and then maybe one of us in that family, we, we changed and we want different things now, and, and, and, and everybody wants us to stay the same (laughs) and do the same things we used to do, do everything. And, um, so, so there's so many situations that all of us listening have. So how might, uh, people who may be in situations, maybe jobs or careers, how do we go from where we are to where we wanna be?

[17:43] Speaker 2: I know, uh, back, uh, way back when, uh, many of us drew the large T on a sheet of paper. That was the exercise we did. We drew a large T on a sheet of paper, and on the right side of the T, we listed what we wanted, what we want for our lives. And on the left side of the T, we listed what we don't want for our lives. And if any of you still have those papers that you did-... and you know where they are, pull them out. Pull out that paper with that tea and see if some or many of these things in our lives reflect the tea that we created. Do we have some of those things in our lives that we put on the right side? And are the things we put on the left side, have they gone away? That was an exercise we did a while ago. And, and if you did that, call and let us know, um, how you're creating and designing your life.

[18:46] Speaker 2: So, so what do you, what do you say about how we can make changes, even if we don't know how we can possibly do it, because we have people around us, and it's more challenging for us to do what we want?

[19:04] Speaker 3: Oh, wow. That's a really interesting question, because a lot of times, it's hard dealing with loved ones about changes that have taken place in your life, and how maybe you want to spend time a little differently. So, that entails you just going within yourself and knowing that it's okay to be going through a change, because really there's nothing constant in the world but change. It's like you may not be the same person that you were 10 minutes ago, a year ago, 10 years ago. You may have went through certain things in your life, where you've taken on different, um, aspects of things that make you happy, help you to grow. So, whereas, maybe you used to spend 30 minutes on a phone call with someone, or hour, um, you may not want to do that, um, at this particular time. You may feel like, "I don't want to spend a lot of time on the phone. Um, I'd rather be doing something different. I'd rather be taking a walk. I'd rather be drawing or making a painting.

[20:40] Speaker 3: I'd rather be cleaning up." Or whatever that may be, it's not that you have a different feelings towards that person, that friend, or that family member, it's just that, "I want to do things differently in my life." That's just like if you feel like, at the end of your day, "What did I get accomplished today?" And you may look back at it and you may not be happy about it. You may be, "I spent too much time on social media. I spent too much time watching TV. I spent too much time talking on the phone." Because you review, and when you look at your own self, "What could have I been doing instead of spending so much time doing that?" Then you may look at the fact, and you might say, "You know what? I have a lot of addictive behaviors. I just get on social media and I don't get off. This is how long I was on there today. What did, what did that do for me? Hmm, maybe not so much. Maybe I was too interested in everybody else's life.

[21:59] Speaker 3: Maybe, I don't know, what did I get out of spending two, three, four hours of my waking moment on social media?" Or that conversation on the phone, it could have been cut shorter, because maybe it went into something else that wasn't so positive. Do you gossip? Because you know that that's not helpful. Are you talking about other people? About things you actually know really nothing about, only what you're assuming about this person? How, you got to really get into it, of how you spent that time. Did you help anything when you were discussing that person? Maybe it was a mutual family member, maybe it was a mutual friend that you both know, but when, at the end of that conversation, what came out of it?

[22:59] Speaker 2: And Bethany, may I, may I ask and say, and what we're, when we're, when that is happening, that's, that's all about the past. All of that-

[23:10] Speaker 3: That's about the past. Not only that, when you're in that conversation, if you get in the nowness, if you, if you get involved in what's going on right now, you can opt out of that. You can realize, in the now moment, to yourself as you're conversating, "What am I doing? Why am I, why am I talking about this? Why am I talking about this person? What is it helping?" And you can come out of it. You can say, "You know what? Uh, this is, I, I, I shouldn't be doing X, Y, and Z." And I remember, that brings me back to a time in my own personal life, with my own personal life, when I realized something. And it would be my siblings. Well, not all of my siblings, but, like, say it's my mom and two of my sisters, and we're talking about one other family member.And I remember the day that I realized, "What are you doing?" Now, as I'm saying, I'm not saying this out to my sisters and my mom. Uh, I'm in real time with them, doing what we do. And I'm saying to myself, "What am I doing?

[24:42] Speaker 3: This is not helping my sister." So, from that point forward, I stopped. And I remember, when we would be talking and if they mentioned my sister or said something that they felt she wasn't doing right, or this, that or the third, and I wouldn't say anything, and they would say, "What, what do you have to say?" And I would be like, "You know what? Nothing. That's not helping her. I don't have anything to say." And I loved that I had that realization, because it was just not productive. But I had been engaging in that type of talking. Okay? I had been engaging. Not in that conversation, saying things like, "Well, let's help Carol- let's help my sister. Let's help- what can we do to help her with this situation?" Whether maybe she wants the help or not, but collectively, let's see how to be helpful. Not talking about negativity.

[26:03] Speaker 2: And, and everything is energy. So, when we're helpful, instead of talking about somebody's problems, when we're helpful, that sends that, that, that type of energy to them instead of the energy that gets sent to people when we're talking about them. About -

[26:24] Speaker 3: Now, that's a very important point. That's very, very important, because now, what you're bringing into the timeline, you're bringing in energy, and everything is about energy. Everything. So, you being whatever it is in that timeframe saying negative things, that energy is being permeated throughout the atmosphere. And, and, and that person may likely be able to feel that there, that there's, that there's not positivity and love coming towards them. They may feel something. So, you always have a opportunity in the present, in the now, in the timeline of now, to come out of any negative behavior and be a light to any situation. A light to yourself, because in the now, you know what to do more. It's your intuition. You can call it what you want. Your intuition may say, "Turn here." Like, you say you're at a stoplight. "Turn here." You, you turn there. Don't second-guess yourself. Is it, something said, "Turn here. Oh, no. Maybe no, no, no. Just go here." That's intuition.

[28:03] Speaker 2: There is something-

[28:04] Speaker 3: Something inside of me was telling me that this is not productive. And a lot of times, we don't listen to that. In the nowness, you may be on the, uh, doing something and, and you know you're on it. You know you're not. You should finish it. Stop. Get up from it. That's the intuition. But then, you don't listen and you keep going.

[28:35] Speaker 2: We have to listen to ourselves. That's our, our spirit talking to us, guiding us.

[28:43] Speaker 3: Yes. Yes, it, it-

[28:46] Speaker 2: We're spiritual beings in physical bodies.

[28:49] Speaker 3: Exactly.

[28:50] Speaker 2: We need to stay true in what we are.

[28:52] Speaker 3: Exactly. We're spiritual beings in physical bodies, and that intuition of knowing that we, a lot of times, don't listen to. You said?

[29:14] Speaker 2: Especially with other people, when we have situations with other people, it's worth it to tell our family members how we feel, because in the end, it's going to surface. And telling family members now may feel hard or painful, but when we wait, it can be explosive. So, we don't need to sit on our feelings. We, we need to listen to ourselves when it comes to what we do and when we need to explain to others where we are and how we feel.

[29:53] Speaker 3: And look at what a beautiful life that is. Look at the beauty in that. You being honest about things that maybe other people, family members, people, whatever, may not really like, but that's okay, because they'll be okay. But the fact that you were honest about-... what you want to do, what you don't want to do at this particular time, how things maybe have changed for me, and I really want to spend my morning watching the sunrise or something like that. I don't, I don't want to be on the phone early in the morning, or whatever may have happened in the past. Past is dead. All we have is right now. Me speaking right now is all I have. Me putting my attention here, this is all I have. There's no future. It doesn't exist, and the past is dead. So every day, you have a chance in that moment to correct anything that you feel that you need to correct, to act in a different way than you feel you have act previously. You have the now, the power of the now. That's the timeline.

[31:29] Speaker 3: There's only one, right now. Right now, in this moment.

[31:42] Speaker 2: I have a question for you.

[31:43] Speaker 3: Mm-hmm.

[31:44] Speaker 2: So I like this watching the sunrise. So say we live at home with a family or we live with someone else, we don't live alone, and we want to watch the sunrise. It's beautiful and it makes us feel good. ............................ I might say, you know, we could either just keep walking (laughs) and just keep going to watch the sunrise, go outside, go, go wherever we need to go to watch the sunrise. But when telling others, for example, that we want to watch the sunrise, or telling someone in the house or someone we live with, they might be like, "What?" Because there are people out there who have never seen the sunrise before, don't even think about it at all. So when we want to go do something as beautiful as watch the sunrise and someone says, "Where are you going?" if we, if we decide to stay or we're going to go watch the sunrise, then they might say something that is on a completely different frequency than we are.

[32:53] Speaker 2: How would we handle dealing with others that we live with when there are things that we want to do that they can't even fathom, have no desire at all? How, what, how do we deal with others in our home that we live with that don't, that see things the way they do and we want to do things that we want to do?

[33:25] Speaker 3: Really, it's not too much that you have to do. See, that's one of the things of coming to real- certain realizations. Coming to certain realizations, you don't have to spend too much energy convincing anybody about you wanting to watch the sunrise. Now, if someone thinks that, that doesn't ... I mean, why would you want to go? What is that doing, you going to watch the sunrise? Now, if you want to spend some time on that, if they ask the question, if they ask you, "Why do you want to watch the sunrise?" Other than them asking you the question, the only thing you're going to do is tell them that you're going to watch the sunrise. If they have some interest in that, they may...

[34:19] Speaker 3: And you might ask them, "Do you want to come along?"

[34:23] Speaker 2: Right.

[34:24] Speaker 3: They may say, "No, I just want to be right here," and they may not have a question about it. If they do, like, "Why would you want to go out and, you know, you could sleep. Why, why do you want to do that?" You may, you know, engage with them as to why you want to do that. Other than that, there is, to me, nothing that you have to do. Because what I'm finding is there's always less that you have to do, less energy that you have to expel. The, it's an issue when you're expelling energy that's not necessary. Why are you... You don't have to con- tell and convince anybody or, or explain why you want to watch the sunrise. It's like, it's just that's something that I want to do. You see what I'm saying?

[35:18] Speaker 3: I, it's nothing, um-

[35:19] Speaker 2: Yeah, we don't have to explain.

[35:21] Speaker 3: You don't have to because, see, this is when you have to realize about autonomy. There are things that you're going to want to do that other people, it might be in your own house, it may be a mate, it might be a husband, it may be whatever. It's like, these are the things that I want to embark on. Now with, uh, someone really close to you, you may want to let them know why. You know, "Wow, I've been looking into this and I feel it would be very beneficial for me to do X, Y, Z." And the person may say, "You know, oh, that's weird," or, "I don't know." And they may say, "Well, that's cool." But it doesn't matter what they say, because this is coming from within you. And that's the beauty of it, being free to be oneself within the group.... that group may be your family, it may be your immediate family, which may be your... if you have children, a husband, maybe, you know, your, uh, mother, father, whomever it c- it may be. Could be friends.

[36:47] Speaker 3: Doesn't matter, because the time here, here we go again with time, it's only a moment. You can look at when you were... Now, just say you're 40, and you could think back at what you were doing when you were 10. Like, "Wow, where did the 'time' go?" Or you can be 80, and you can look back to when you were 30. You're like, "Wow, where did the time go?" There is no such thing as time.

[37:33] Speaker 2: So, so since there's no such thing as time, and, and some people say that the purpose of time is to tell us the time we need to do a whole bunch of stuff we really don't want to do anyway, um, a- h- h- how do we feel if for 20... for 20... we don't look at anything that tells us what time it is? It's a completely different experience to not have to look at a clock. Maybe the, the, the c- clocks that are on the kitchen appliances, the clock on the cellphone, not, not looking at it. Not looking at the clock in the car if you go somewhere.

[38:17] Speaker 3: Mm-hmm.

[38:17] Speaker 2: There have been times where some of us didn't know what time it was at all, r- and it was a... And, and, and what's different about that experience... Have you ever done that before? Just gone-

[38:31] Speaker 3: Okay. Um, that-

[38:32] Speaker 2: ... a, a whole day or maybe more not, not even knowing what time it is? It's free. It feels free. You feel... It's been-

[38:39] Speaker 3: Okay. Now, you're getting... And let's, let's talk about this. Like you said, the clock. Now, man has dealt with the time in a way to... for society. So, they've made it it's, uh, 24 hours, and in that 24 hours... Now, this is how it's been set up. That means that there's certain things that have to be done. Now, you may have certain souls that don't have to deal with that. Okay? Now, that's over here. Let's put that over here. Because however way that their life is going, they don't have to deal with the societal definition of this time thing. So, in that societal definition, for most... a lot of people, that means the day starts at this time, clockwise. Okay? This is wh- well, this is when you have to... 'Cause you gotta be here at this time, clockwise. You have to show up at this time, at this place. Then you have to spend this amount of time at that place. Then you leave that place.

[40:25] Speaker 3: Then you're going to travel to go back to home, or some people are going to another destination, uh, to do some more time. Okay? So, we... So, there's this societal timeline when everything shuts down and you rest. The animals have it, unless they're nocturnal. Some animals are up at night. Now, for some, the people that I put over here, they aren't so much watching the clock. Because for whatever reason, they're not on that societal timeline, but they know automatically when the sun rises, they're gonna do this. They even have an innate... They kinda know what time it is. They can tell you, "Right now, I guess it's about 2:00, 4:00." Some people could go outside and how the sun sets, they know what time it is. So, you, you got a whole lotta going on here. Whole lot going on. Children, people that gotta go to school, you get up this time, you go to school, you're in there for this time. You leave at 2:30, then you go here and nah, nah, nah, nah, nah.

[41:48] Speaker 3: However, that particular framework still has nothing to do with the now-ness of the moment and what you do in this moment. If you're a person that had to get up at 6:00 to get ready to get somewhere by 9:00 or by 8:00, it's still the power of the now, what you do in each moment still there. Doesn't go anywhere, how you handle what's going on right now.... are you gonna handle something now that happened 10 years ago? In this moment, you have an opportunity to say, "I'm no longer going to harbor resentment about what happened 10 years ago, because I don't want that on my plate. I don't want that on my soul, I don't want that on my energy." You do that in the moment of the now. Or I'm mad at my father who wasn't around since whenever, Easter blip time, since I was two years old. In the moment, you may decide, "You know what? I don't really know what his story is.

[43:20] Speaker 3: I don't really know what was going on with him, so I'm going to let that go." The power of the now lets you be free from that. Or you could continue to hold that baggage on you. You could continue to hate him, 'cause he wasn't here, uh, since I was two and now I'm 50. You can continue. You can say, "I did... This happened with that girlfriend and I'm..." You can hold it, or you can be free of it right now. The power of the now. So it doesn't matter what timeline you're on, whether you have to be to work at nine o'clock, whether you feel I have to go to bed by 11:00, 'cause I gotta get up at 5:00. There's nothing... It's separate, separate from the power of the now. The power that you have to make your life what you want. Okay? So, the fact that you have different people, you have main- you have some people that live off the grid. They went somewhere where they- they create everything. Their own electricity, blah, blah, blah, blah, everything. They grow their own food.

[44:42] Speaker 3: They don't have to get up to go anywhere, to get on the, a highway. But they still, they're still on a certain timeline. When the sun rises, they say, "Okay, by this time, I wanna go out and plant my cucumbers." Okay? However, the other person over here might be like, their timeline is a little different, but what I'm talking about, still once you see that there's no such thing as time, because everything that you do is in that moment. What you did yesterday at the job, that's gone. Now, can there be a repercussion of what you did at the job yesterday? Yeah, 'cause you might've got some cases done, you might've served some people, it was a wonderful day, this and that and the third. You can refer to it, but it's gone. If you wanna look back at it, it's fine. If you wanna look at your childhood, if you wanna look at how... what good times you had.

[46:03] Speaker 3: If you wanna reminisce, if you wanna talk about what I'm gonna do in five years that don't even exist, 'cause you don't even know if you gonna be alive tomorrow, but you can look into the future. You can say, "Well, I'm gonna do this," because you're contemplating that- that you will be there in five years or whatever the case may be. And that's all well and good. But basically all you got is right now. So don't think that, "Oh, I- I- I was acting very terribly yesterday with my brother. I- I- I- I was really acting out of pocket. I said things." Don't think that you have all this time to fix it. "I don't feel like talking to him right now. I- I- I am not gonna apologize, because he caught me... I wasn't feeling that well. He caught me at a bad time, so I let him have it." Really?

[47:14] Speaker 2: That happened?

[47:16] Speaker 3: Yeah. "He- he got on my nerves." Okay. Now, you already inside of yourself already know that you were out of line. You already know. But your ego may not allow you to apologize, 'cause, "I'll do it later." You don't have later. Once you realize it, you wanna tell the person, because they... You don't know w- when you... when they... i- if you have time to tell them next week or, "I'll tell him when I talk to him again." There are probably a whole... so many people who have done that, and they never got a chance to do it. Why? The person died, whatever, who knows? All you got is right now. And it would feel so good for you if you could get past the ego to say, "You know what? I- I apologize for how I acted yesterday. You didn't really do anything to me." That's in the moment. You see it, you act on it. That's all you got. You ain't got next week to fix it. You think you do.You think you can go into the future a- and, and write it out? All you got is the moment.

[48:52] Speaker 3: So, if you have something important that you say, "You know what? I got up this morning and this is what I want to do." Then the next door neighbor comes and says, "You know what? Could you run me here and like run me there?" And now, you may say, "You know what? What I can do can wait. She needs me right now. I'm gonna do it." You're doing it out of the goodness of your heart. You're not gonna be mad when you come back and see the same mess that you were gonna clean up. You're not gonna feel bad now that you took her XYZ and now this is still waiting for you, because you do it out of the goodness of what you wanted to do in that moment. So you're not gonna later call it crying over spilt milk.

[49:54] Speaker 2: Sometimes when that happens to me, there's something that I planned to do and I really didn't want to do it anyway. So sometimes I'm glad when somebody I love calls me and says, "Can you take me somewhere?" And I'm like, "Yeah." (laughs) And, and hopefully-

[50:08] Speaker 3: That's beau- that's, that's beautiful. So that's the whole thing of making your life easier, more beautiful. If that's what you want, if that's what you want, if you haven't gotten into a, a habit of being sour, sometimes you have to look at that and say, have you gotten yourself in a, in a place of being sour where that feels better to you? And see, it's, it's, you have to evaluate your own being. You see, what, what you're happy with, what makes you feel, what makes your heart sing. When you lay your head down at night and you're just, you know, your day is like... Sometimes it'll have ups and downs, but that's okay. You're not feeling ill-will.

[51:21] Speaker 2: May I-

[51:21] Speaker 3: It's okay.

[51:22] Speaker 2: I remember a fun thing that happened. I remember a fun thing that happened one day. May I, may I tell? (laughs)

[51:37] Speaker 3: Of course.

[51:39] Speaker 2: (laughs) Okay. So one day, one of my loveliest people in my life said, "Can you take me over to this office? I need to go to this office." And because I love spending time with them, I'm like, "Yeah, I'll take you." So we got in the, in the, in the van and we went to the office, and, um, we parked the car. My lovely friend went into the office, and then I noticed when they came out, I had a flat tire. (laughs)

[52:11] Speaker 3: I know who that friend was.

[52:17] Speaker 2: ... I got

[52:19] Speaker 3: Go ahead.

[52:20] Speaker 2: ... before but, uh, but I got this flat tire and I'm like, "Okay, well I have AAA. I'm gonna call AAA." But my friend is very important and she's very important and I made a phone call to, uh, another person and I said, "Can you... I got a flat tire and my friend is very important and they have a lot of business to do. Can you please come and pick them up? I'll deal with the flat tire by myself so they can get on with their day." And, um, and so the, the person I called got in the car to come pick up my very important friend, because they had important business to do, and my, my lovely friend said, "No. I'm not going with them. I'm staying here with you because you tried to help me.

[53:07] Speaker 2: I'm just gonna lay down and take a nap in the back seat of the van." And then I remembered, because I love to go to garage sales on Saturdays, I said, "I have two lounge chairs in the back of the van."

[53:21] Speaker 3: Oh.

[53:22] Speaker 2: So I went to the back of the van and I pulled out these two, um, zero gravity, uh, uh, uh, um, fall autumn orange lounge chairs and we set up the lounge chairs next to the van that had the flat tire-

[53:40] Speaker 3: (laughs)

[53:40] Speaker 2: ... so that my lovely friend could take a nap in, in, in pure comfort. And we, we both laid out these (laughs) orange lounge chairs and had a lovely time. And then the AAA finally came and, and, and took, took care of the, the tire quickly and we weren't that far away. We were really only two miles away, three miles away. And when we got back, I said, "Well, we have two of these 0.0 gravity lounge chairs that I got at the garage sale for, for five dollars for both of them and they had hardly been used, so I'm gonna have one and you have the other."

[54:21] Speaker 3: Oh, boy.

[54:22] Speaker 2: And, um, that was a very memorable story.

[54:24] Speaker 3: Now, now, this story that Aloha-

[54:29] Speaker 2: (laughs)

[54:29] Speaker 3: ... is telling is about me. And she's bringing back that beautiful memory of that particular day.It, it was so beautiful, because I have a business. I did have things to do that day. She took me somewhere I needed to go, so I could run in, do what I had to do, come back out. And, she had a flat. Aloha, this is such a beautiful story. Because so many things came out of that. And I remember her calling someone very close to her to say, "Come and get Beverly, because she has to do some things, and I have to wait for the AAA people." And I was like, "No way am I leaving my sister." I don't even call her a friend, my sis. I'm not leaving her. And then she says, "Well," and she went in the back and got these two beautiful chairs, lounge chairs, 'cause I was just gonna go in the back seat and take a nap actually. Wow, Aloha, that beautiful chair, I, I, I, I opened it and the sun was shining. It was so beautiful. And I laid back in it. We talked a little bit. I dozed off a little bit.

[56:20] Speaker 3: In that moment, there was nothing but beauty. And, we were there, I don't know how long we were there, but I told her, "I don't need anybody to pick me up. I'm staying here with you." They, they came and fixed it, and then we went home and she actually gifted me with that chair I was... that beautiful chair I was sitting on. It was so beautiful. And we basked in the moment of our friendship, our sisterhood, and what we experienced, and her telling that story of how we acted in the now moment brought back how, you know, how beautiful that was. Thank you, Aloha.

[57:22] Speaker 4: Oh, girl, that was something else.

[57:26] Speaker 3: (laughs)

[57:27] Speaker 4: And I remember when I, when, when I kept one of the chairs and you kept one of the chairs. You were so happy you just held onto that chair. (laughs)

[57:37] Speaker 3: I was so happy.

[57:38] Speaker 4: And the, and, and wh-

[57:39] Speaker 3: That chair, I mean, that... (laughs) I, I, I, I was so happy.

[57:44] Speaker 4: Zero gravity lounge chair, new. (laughs)

[57:48] Speaker 3: It was such a happy moment. And how we handled that moment, it's like, of us being there together, the tire flat. I'm not thinking about the future of what I have to do. That didn't matter to me. I'm enjoying right now. And we're having a ball right now. Yeah. So-

[58:12] Speaker 4: That chair was a... became a replacement, because what happened to one of your favorite chairs?

[58:17] Speaker 3: Oh, yeah. One of my favorite chairs that had been gifted to me by my father-in-law. I mean, probably like, oh, so, so, so many years ago. (laughs) Someone ruined the chair, um, the way they sat in it there, the weight of it, they ruined it. So, here now I have a replacement. This beautiful burnt, it's like a burnt orange color, absolutely beautiful. It's not like this bright orange. It's like a burnt orange.

[59:01] Speaker 3: It's so beauti-

[59:01] Speaker 4: Like an autumn orange, like a fall color orange.

[59:04] Speaker 3: Oh, like a fall orange, like the leaves. Exactly. That's exactly, um, a good definition of the chair.

[59:12] Speaker 4: Yeah.

[59:12] Speaker 3: It's beautiful, and, and-

[59:13] Speaker 4: And then the chair-

[59:14] Speaker 3: ... the comfort, the comfort of the chair, how I could lay there. We were on the side of the road. (laughs) Oh, and I opened the chair.

[59:24] Speaker 4: With our lou- with our beautiful lounge chairs.

[59:26] Speaker 3: And it, and I opened it. And I'm like, "Okay, I'm gonna make the best of this."

[59:33] Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah. And, um, my concern was you.

[59:39] Speaker 3: Thank you, Aloha, for bringing that- Yeah.

[59:39] Speaker 4: Yeah, my concern was you and you getting picked up. I had called someone to come get you.

[59:45] Speaker 3: But that's where the beauty of the moment-

[59:47] Speaker 4: And I'm like, "Okay, I have to handle this."

[59:48] Speaker 3: In that moment, you, your thought was not so much about your flat tire. You were, like, thinking of me, and, and you wanted me to get on with what I had to do, so let me call somebody in that moment to pick her up so she can get moving. And, you did that in the moment, and I'm like, "No, I'm gonna stay right here with you. Call the person and tell them they don't have to come."

[01:00:23] Speaker 4: (laughs) And that's one of our better stories.

[01:00:26] Speaker 3: And we enjoyed that time, and that time was what we had together right now. Not thinking about-

[01:00:33] Speaker 4: Yeah.

[01:00:33] Speaker 3: ... "Oh, I gotta get home. How am I gonna get home and do what I need to do?" Or you just thinking about your flat tire. Love came in at that time.

[01:00:49] Speaker 2: So, we had that beautiful time together. Yeah. Yeah, that was fun. So, that's sort of, that's one of our stories. (laughs) And, um, you can shift things that look like, like, "Oh, no, what just happened?"

[01:01:07] Speaker 3: Exactly.

[01:01:08] Speaker 2: By, by deciding in real time that I can apply positive energy to this. And really, we were only about, what, three miles away? (laughs)

[01:01:19] Speaker 3: About three. Maybe a little more, but three.

[01:01:23] Speaker 2: (laughs)

[01:01:23] Speaker 3: But see, what that is called is, there's an old saying that my grandmother used to say, "You turn base metal into gold." You got a flat tire over here, you have me needing to go 'cause I got stuff to do over here, but we came together in that moment and made it a beautiful moment.

[01:01:46] Speaker 2: Yes.

[01:01:46] Speaker 3: That we enjoyed.

[01:01:49] Speaker 2: Yeah. And then the, the lovely man came from AAA.

[01:01:54] Speaker 3: Oh, yeah. The lovely man came.

[01:01:56] Speaker 2: He came. I don't know what he did. What he did, whatever.

[01:01:59] Speaker 3: Whatever he did, he was so, he was so helpful and, and so congenial and it was, it just, the whole thing was good.

[01:02:09] Speaker 2: He put the spare on and then we put the, the tires in and we were on our way.

[01:02:15] Speaker 3: (laughs)

[01:02:15] Speaker 2: So, so that's to let everyone know, (laughs) uh, if you, if you drive a car and it's, it's kind of nice to have AAA. (laughs)

[01:02:26] Speaker 3: Wow. So, if anyone has-

[01:02:30] Speaker 2: Okay.

[01:02:30] Speaker 3: ... their own experiences that they want to call in, please do. 323-744-4331 or 888-627-6008. We would love to hear from you.

[01:02:52] Speaker 2: Yeah. Even, and if you've never called, call in today. You help all of us when you call. So, (laughs) so there we go. Um, what, what, what else is on our minds? Let's see, that was so, that was so much fun. (laughs) So, what, what did I want to say? Um, so, you know, sometimes if we have some major things in our lives, um, that we want to shift out of or shift into, sometimes we create a plan to do this. So, I know some people, um, have changed, uh, have let jobs go, changed careers, moved to new locations and, and, and we can do this, uh, and we can bal, do this with balance. We can have our lives, uh, balanced. We can seek to make a plan so that we make any shifts, any major changes, um, with balance. And, and we can create a plan to, to do this if we, if we want to change our lives. We want to move, we want to not go to this job that we're going to. Anything big and major, we can make a plan and we can be balanced while we do this so that it's smoother.

[01:04:26] Speaker 2: We can have synchronicity when we, we do this. So, so, yes, we do like to do things in the now and be spontaneous, but with, sometimes with big major changes, we can make a plan. We can create a plan. And that's how that T comes in. We can make a plan and we can draw that T. We can take a sheet of paper and draw a T and on the right side, put the things we want and on the left side, put the things we want to let go. But there's nothing, it, it, it's, it's perfectly okay to, to plan big changes so that we can do this gracefully and, and, um, in synchronicity and we can take our time when making large changes.

[01:05:19] Speaker 3: Yeah, and you getting into writing, there is old ancient things. Write it down and make it happen. Some people would write things on paper, bury it in the soil, because there was, they were thinking about the soil and the earth make things grow, come into existence. So, people would write it down. And a lady wrote a book about it, it's called Write It Down and Make It Happen. Um, that writing and, and your, your hand can s- remember, everything is energy. So, you're, you're, you're writing down on paper, which comes from wood, you're writing down something that you want to come into existence. So, another part of that was, like I said, some people would bury it in the soil, in the earth 'cause they wanted it to come forth. Writing has always been something ancient that people used to do which has been gotten away from with computers. So, people hardly write letters by hand to people or write down things.

[01:06:48] Speaker 3: Um, they make notes in their phone or they, um, everything is not have that hand.... that coming from your hand, um, well, you can say, well, it's coming from my hands hitting the keys (laughs) on the computer. You know?

[01:07:10] Speaker 2: Uh-huh.

[01:07:10] Speaker 3: So, it depends on how you look at it. But what you saying, the piece of paper, it's like, you dealing with nature, paper, your hand, and, uh, yeah.

[01:07:28] Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah. And, um, I, I wanted to, uh, also add, when we're creating, because that's what we're doing, we're creating every second. When we want to create, we can start by creating small things first. We can have small things. We can say, um, "I'm gonna be driving downtown, and I'm gonna find a perfect parking space." It could be small things, small things. And then we can increase. Once we gain our confidence in creating small things, can increase. We don't have to, you know, say we're going to create, um, a mansion on the beach. We, we, we, we want to... We might want to create a mansion on the beach, but we, we might want to practice creating small things first, and then continually increase to more things as we build our confidence in creating. Then when we know, we know when we create, we know we are going to create what we want. And then we can continue on. And so, the creative process is very fun and interesting to me. I learned that you can create out of nothing just by...

[01:09:00] Speaker 2: And children do it all the time. Little children do it all the time. Maybe it started with a happy birthday, the birthday cake, lighting the candles, and making a wish to yourself and then blowing them out. But even children learn how to create. They say, "I'm gonna go outside. The ice cream man's coming. I'm gonna get a, um, a, a, a strawberry shortcake ice cream today." So, they, they just know what's gonna happen. Or they say, uh, that it's... The children do it. We can watch little children create. We can take lessons from children. They have no limits. There's nothing in their mind that tells them, can't do it. All they know is I can.

[01:09:46] Speaker 3: Yes.

[01:09:47] Speaker 2: I can do all these things. And we can watch children create, and we can create the things we want to start with-

[01:10:01] Speaker 3: (laughs)

[01:10:02] Speaker 2: ... small things that we want. And become very excellent creators, and that's how we can begin to do the things that we want to do because we know what we want. Even it's, it's because we've learned what we don't want. So, we can write things down that we want. We can, uh, create any affirmations we can command, we want.

[01:10:36] Speaker 3: That's, that's very interesting, um...

[01:10:40] Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.

[01:10:41] Speaker 3: Because you have to create space, okay? It's like, when you don't have distractions, you create. I remember when me, when I was coming up, me and my sister would pick the longest word we could find in the dictionary. And then we would see how many words we could get out of that long word, and who could get the most words out of that long word. We had a ball doing that.

[01:11:14] Speaker 2: (laughs)

[01:11:14] Speaker 3: But we had the space to create because we didn't have distractions. There was, you know, uh, a- at that time, at one time, I was raised where they didn't have a TV in the house, okay? So, you created, you did, you, you just made... You could make up things to entertain yourself. And it was beautiful. Or you could just play a game. We used to have that space to play Scrabble, to play dominoes, to play Parcheesi. We had that space as a family to, to, to spend that time, because this one wasn't distracted over here with that, and this one wasn't distracted over there with that. So now, since we have all of these distractions, you have to, and the... Think of you have to create. Now, the thing is, do you give yourself the space to create in that moment? Do you make a decision that I want to do X, Y, Z? I want to create. I want to do this, I want to do that, and not spend my time with all these distractions. Can let that creative energy flow. And people do it, and they create things.

[01:13:00] Speaker 3: They make inventions, they, they, they create a space where they, uh-... may say, “I wanna paint. I wanna do paintings. I'm gonna order me some paints, because I wanna make some pictures. Uh, and I, I wanna spend my time, some of my time doing this.” Or, "I wanna write. I think I could be a good writer. But I'm gonna create that space." So you had that epiphany in the moment. Now, do you act on it? You may, in the moment, decide, "I'm gonna make sure I don't leave dishes in my sink at night anymore. Anymore. I wanna wake up to a clean kitchen." And you have that epiphany in that moment. Now, are you gonna act on it? Because it's gonna come to you right in the now. "This doesn't make any sense. Let me... This is... I'm gonna make that time to do this. Then, when I get up in the morning, everything is good and beautiful." Or, you can have the epiphany, maybe, maybe not, of how you come into your bedroom.

[01:14:30] Speaker 3: You're like, "Oh, wow, let me take five minutes, or three minutes to, to make everything... make my bed and, and put everything in its place, so this evening or this afternoon, when I come in the room, it's so nice. The energy is so good and clean and pure." So you can... That's gonna come to you in the moment. You're gonna have it right now, that thought. When you act on it. "I'm gonna take that few minutes to, to tidy up.

[01:15:12] Speaker 3: And when I reenter that room, wow, I like it." And there's different things-

[01:15:26] Speaker 2: Yeah.

[01:15:27] Speaker 3: ... that have come in the moment, especially when you want to grow, when you want things to go better in your life. Maybe you... your... y- the energy, you need a energy shift. You need to clean up.

[01:15:45] Speaker 2: We... Even if we say to ourselves, "I know there are so many things going on, but today, I'm gonna do at least one thing that I want to do." And even if we have to practice and start there, we can say, "Every day, I'm going to do at least one thing that I really want to do."

[01:16:16] Speaker 3: And you'll do that in the moment. You'll do that in the now. That'll come to you, what you just said. It'll come to you, right there in that moment.

[01:16:31] Speaker 2: And sometimes, it could be we wanna do nothing. "I wanna do nothing for an..."

[01:16:40] Speaker 3: Exactly.

[01:16:41] Speaker 2: "I wanna be absolutely... thick... Don't wanna do anything. I don't wanna clean up anything. I don't feel like talking." It could be doing nothing.

[01:16:58] Speaker 3: Well, that's something that some people have to make a practice, 'cause they don't know how to do that. They don't know how to not do nothing. They don't know how to not be in their head. Their brain is going, like, a mi- million miles a minute. They, they, they have to learn how to not do nothing, how to free themselves just to be. That... In today's world, you can call it meditation, you can call it being still. But that's a practice that some people have to learn, because their brain is just always on fire. It's hard for them to relax. It's hard for them to, to just be, and, and they think if they're not doing something that they're not productive. You see? But like you said, just doing nothing, just being, just sitting, relaxing, letting the whole body relax, the mind, coming out of the head with all these thoughts. What I didn't do, what I'm gonna do, what I'm gonna say, what I'm gonna... what I need to do, what I... all of these things, it's like... And it makes people tired.

[01:18:31] Speaker 3: And that's why, a lot of time, they want some pick-me-up, because they're tired. All these, like, simple things have become harder to do, because everything in the world is so quick and fast and, you know, you have to, you know, be on top of this and on top of that and, and sometimes it makes people stressed out.And sometimes you need some... people need sleep aids because they can't turn it off at night. When they wanna relax, it's like they, they needed something to unwind.

[01:19:27] Speaker 2: You know, that reminds me of something. (laughs) I, I'm, um, visiting relatives who... and friends. I'm visiting, um... I've met a lot of new friends. I am far away from home, and I'm staying in... The bedroom I'm staying in, speaking of sleep, has beds, but it also has a hammock. (laughs)

[01:19:56] Speaker 3: (laughs) Okay.

[01:19:57] Speaker 2: So I have a hammock in the bedroom. And I strung the hammock with some very... um, uh, bolts attached to the concrete walls, and I have been sleeping in a hammock, uh, every night. (laughs) And it doesn't feel like a bed at all. I feel... I don't feel my body, uh, but I'm in this hammock, and I feel like I'm being su- I'm, I'm suspended. I feel that I am suspended. And I did put a, a, um, a, some sofa cushions under it.

[01:20:34] Speaker 2: (laughs)

[01:20:35] Speaker 3: (laughs)

[01:20:35] Speaker 2: But I feel as though I'm suspended, and I'm sleeping in a hammock every night, and when I lay down on the bed, I feel heavy. I feel my body when I'm laying on the bed. When I'm in this hammock, I'm being, um, um, suspended, and I'm hanging, and it's a completely different feeling, and I sleep so well in it. And where I am, so many people all their lives sleep in hammocks. They have hammocks in the bedrooms. And, and the, and, and, and I'm looking at the, the beds in here, and I'm like, okay, it's a nice long bedroom, but I wanna get a hammock and take it home with me and put a hammock in my home somewhere so that I can sit or lay in the hammock. And it's, uh, like a completely different way of sleeping, and I, I don't feel heavy. I don't feel my body when I'm sleeping.

[01:21:34] Speaker 3: Because you're like almost like weightless, 'cause I'm thinking of-

[01:21:39] Speaker 2: That's what I said.

[01:21:39] Speaker 3: ... the hammock, and you just are in these... in this net, and-

[01:21:46] Speaker 2: Yeah.

[01:21:46] Speaker 3: ... it's like there's nothing underneath you, no mattress that you have to say, "Oh, it's too hard. Oh, it's too soft. Oh, it's this. It's the... I'm not comfortable." It's just your own body weight in this, in this material.

[01:22:01] Speaker 2: Yes.

[01:22:01] Speaker 3: And I can see what you're... Uh, I've never slept in a hammock, but I can see how it's probably like really comfortable.

[01:22:12] Speaker 2: Yeah, it's, it's comfortable, so I sleep better. Sleep better, uh, and I know... and I, and I know how to, to tie up the hammock in different places to make it like a chair if I wanna use it as a chair and not just lay in it. They taught me how to do it, and, and down where I am, I'm in, um, the Yucatan, which we've talked about a lot. It's a very, very, uh, the energy here is... (laughs) It's a very sacred place. There's a lot of energetic history here, and the people here, and they make these hammocks. Some of 'em, um, w- w... you know, you have your choice of buying things that was... that have been made by hand out of natural material from the plants here, and so the hammocks can last a lifetime indoors and outdoors if you buy them where they're made by hand.

[01:23:15] Speaker 3: Hmm.

[01:23:16] Speaker 2: It's just a different, uh, experience, and I don't feel heavy, so when I lay on the bed, I, I feel the heaviness-

[01:23:26] Speaker 3: Mm-hmm.

[01:23:26] Speaker 2: ... of laying on the mattress.

[01:23:29] Speaker 3: Well, that's why if you notice, they have all of these different mattresses, uh, that they try to sell because it must be a big industry for people being comfortable when they sleeping. So, people in that industry have found different ways, um, and different, you know, ways to formulate these mattresses so people, uh, can enjoy their, uh, their restful sleeping hours.

[01:24:07] Speaker 2: Now, I've gotta confess. I have a confession, okay?

[01:24:11] Speaker 3: What's that?

[01:24:11] Speaker 2: We went, we went to some stores where we're close to a lot of stores, and, um, a lot of people sell hammocks. And, um, we went into one store, and the hammock came with a book. (laughs) And so, the salesman said to the man I walked into the store with, "Well, I don't wanna be disrespectful," and I wasn't really listening, but the hammock came with like a, like a Kama Sutra type book. (laughs)

[01:24:45] Speaker 3: (laughs) Okay.

[01:24:47] Speaker 2: Different types of ways and positions that (laughs) lovers can enjoy being in the hammock together. (laughs)

[01:24:58] Speaker 3: Oh, wow.

[01:25:00] Speaker 2: And it's very interesting. (laughs)

[01:25:05] Speaker 3: Oh, wow.

[01:25:07] Speaker 2: Anyway, (laughs) back to the topic.

[01:25:09] Speaker 3: So, so, that's interesting.

[01:25:13] Speaker 2: That was very interesting. I'm like, I'm gonna get this hammock just to get that book.

[01:25:17] Speaker 3: (laughs)

[01:25:18] Speaker 2: Because I'd rather sell the street sale of the book with the hammock-

[01:25:21] Speaker 3: Oh, wow.

[01:25:22] Speaker 2: ... with the men, the other men. The men will tell the men about the things that you can do with hammock life.

[01:25:30] Speaker 3: Okay.

[01:25:32] Speaker 2: (laughs)

[01:25:32] Speaker 3: That's interesting.

[01:25:33] Speaker 2: So anyway, (laughs) so anyway, back to timelines. So, so anyway, basically for the timelines, it gives us a chance to recognize in real time, we have the opportunity and the choice to do in every now moment.

[01:25:53] Speaker 3: Uh-huh.

[01:25:53] Speaker 2: And if we can recognize what's happening, we can direct our lives at any time for the desire that we want. Or we can at least be aware that something is happening and that we can be aware and mindful of it. That it's not... We don't get down the road and realize that something that we didn't want has been going on for a long time. So-

[01:26:25] Speaker 3: Yeah.

[01:26:25] Speaker 2: ... recognizing timelines and recognizing how we can shift and maneuver is very, very important. And, and that's why, that's why we're here is to be able to know what to do, know what we want, and create what we want at every now moment.

[01:26:53] Speaker 3: Wow. Well, that's the realization to come to, that you orchestrate basically your own life, because most of the time we think we don't really have that much to do with what actually happens to us. 'Cause it's all about energy. It's all about what you decide and anything that you go through, if you feel that it's negative or why am I going through this, it's a lesson that you have to learn for whatever reason, for whatever reason. What is, what is this experience trying to show you?

[01:27:48] Speaker 2: Yeah. And, and so-

[01:27:53] Speaker 3: You know, what am I, what am I supposed to learn out of this because, um, there's no mistakes in this dimension, and whether you think it is or not. Everything that happens is a reason, and whether you like the reason or not. But it can all come together if you see where you are in that, you know, in that particular, um, situation. Where... What, what, what are you... Why is this happening to me? What, what, what... If I don't ask why is this happening to me, most likely you'll get the answer, because it's within you. You have... But you have to know how to ask, "Why am I going through this?" But if you just take it for granted that you're going through something, you don't know why, "Why is this happening to me? I'm a good person," uh, whatever you wanna tangent, you wanna go off on, instead of acceptance of this happened to me, why? What, what, what, why, why am, why am I, um, going through this?

[01:29:29] Speaker 3: Then, wow, you can see and maybe take that time and space to look at maybe why you're going through this particular situation and learn something that you need to learn. And all lessons aren't always easy, you know. You know, they... Some lessons are hard, but exactly what you need to grow. Do you wanna grow? Maybe, maybe not. It's, it's... That's where we have choices, you see. Always a choice. There's always a lens to look at. It, it's like... But you have that moment, that now to look at it, you see, and bring it into the light, like... It's, it's... That's where... The now is, is where you can look at things objectively, because if you look to the past, you might have a prejudice about something, because you're gonna talk about everything that was done in the past. Or are you gonna project into the future what you think is gonna be, which doesn't even exist?...

[01:31:18] Speaker 3: but in the moment, and you keep yourself there, it's going to look different, 'cause you can't rely on the past transgressions, and you can't go into the future. So now, you gotta be right here. Now, the mind might try to keep going to the past, in justification of why I'm angry or why I'm feeling this way. But if you go right here, right now, it's going to be harder to do that, 'cause you can't move into the past. It's gone. And you can't go into the future. It doesn't exist. That's where you, uh, uh, they, meditation is, is a sum- a name that they call that, because you don't allow the mind to wander into this abyss of, of thoughts and making up stuff, just making up stuff that hasn't even happened. Just making it up. And it feels good. It feels right, that you don't have a leg to stand on. In that moment, you can be free from all the stuff that don't even really mean nothing. It's like, when you look at some of the stuff, it don't even mean anything.

[01:32:53] Speaker 3: It's, it's, it's out, it, it's, it doesn't, it, is it really that deep? Probably not. Unless you want to stay stuck, you can m- make, you can make it big. You can make, as they say, a mountain out of it. It's like, maybe it used to be a mountain, but I'm tired. I don't wanna, I, I wanna get rid, I wanna get rid of all of that. I wanna free myself from all of this nonsense. I wanna be free. It's a song. I wanna be free.

[01:33:43] Speaker 2: And may I say, it's very helpful, um, to realize that everything e- everything is energy, and it is, um, you know, you can look at things and, and, and it is so. That if you keep looking to the past, the past just loops back into the present over and over, because what we put our energy into, especially thinking with mind energy, that's what we get.

[01:34:22] Speaker 3: Exactly.

[01:34:23] Speaker 2: So, sometimes we really just, sometimes we really just can't afford to do that, to keep dipping back into the past all the time, 'cause it just circles back around. And, and, and that's enough motivation. Sometimes for some of us, that's enough motivation to stop doing certain things, to know that, hey, if I keep doing this, I'm gonna keep getting these-

[01:34:49] Speaker 3: The same results.

[01:34:50] Speaker 2: ... same things. Mm-hmm. Yep. So we gotta say, hey, I don't wanna do this anymore. So we have no choice-

[01:34:58] Speaker 3: Yep.

[01:34:58] Speaker 2: ... to stop doing certain things. That's enough motivation sometimes to make you say, okay, I'm gonna stop. It's like-

[01:35:06] Speaker 3: Love is the answer always.

[01:35:09] Speaker 2: ... how many people-

[01:35:09] Speaker 3: Love is the answer always when you come to that realization. And love is just not so much, I'm not talking about that mushy, oh, I love you, and you just talking. No, no, no, no. Not that. It's bringing love to a situation, not bringing judgment and anger in. It's just like, I wanna see the beauty in you. Okay? I really wanna see the beauty in you and not look at you how I looked at you in the past. You see? With judgment and what you did and all of this and that and the other. I wanna be free. Don't really mean that much at the end of the day. Everybody has, makes mistakes. Everybody does things, but that doesn't have to define them, you see? Like you wouldn't want everybody to hold your feet to the fire for everything that you, transgression that you've done. But in the moment, you can see that. I ain't all that either. (laughs) You know, I wanna go back or do this. I don't wanna live in the present. I just wanna, you know. Now, can the past bring some type of light to the now?

[01:36:59] Speaker 3: It can, as a reference only. As a reference. But not as the be all, end all. Not as the be all, end all.That's why a lot of time, in the moment, that's why judges are supposed to be of certain character of objectivity, where they can look at a situation in the, in the real time right now, and judge if this person should get leniency. If this person, I can look through the muck and the mire to see maybe I'll give them a probation this time. This time. I'm not going to put your feet to the fire, but I am going to put you on a probation. Now, people can say, "How that gonna go?" We don't know how that's gonna go. But in that moment, that judge has to make that determination. You see? So a regular citizen may not have the ability to do that, because they may just want the feet to the fire. Period. Yeah. They can't get in that space to see is this a situation that needs a little bit of leniency? And the judge may look at it and look at things and say, "No, no, no.

[01:39:10] Speaker 3: This particular situation doesn't get leniency right now." However, they're making their decision in real time, not out of emotion and, um, anger and things like that. Did they just see that right now this soul needs to be put away for a while? They need time to think. You see? There ain't-

[01:39:37] Speaker 4: You know, there's something... Oh, sorry. Go ahead.

[01:39:43] Speaker 3: So the moment timeline involves one thing actually is only the now. Outside of that, in society, yeah, we have this, that, and the other. We got to be here at 2:00 and all of that. That's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about something else, that moment right now, right now, where there's no past and there's no future. What you going to do? Are you going to do things because of what's expected of you, even though you don't want to? Are you going to do things that make your heart sing that sometimes other people may not like? But you're doing it in real time, not because of expectations, not because of this and that and the other. So that means when you do something, even if it wasn't what you were setting out to do, you're doing it from a place where you're, you're, you're good with it. I'm good with this. There's no aftermath or a feeling of, oh, why did I do that? I should have been doing this. You're, you're good with it, because you did it from a space of truth and beauty.

[01:41:41] Speaker 3: You're right now. Now, what are they going to think if I say no? Are they not going to like me if I say no? If, if, if... Wh- what's going to happen? That's when you start getting into the head, into the future, into the past. The beauty of life when you start getting those glimpses of the beauty of your time here in this dimension. And then, you start looking at how do I want to spend this time? But it ain't but a moment. There's a song, Life Is Just a Moment. Think it's Earth, Wind & Fire. It's a song. So it's like when you decide I want to have more to do with how I spend this time. There's another song called Wasted Time and I, I can't remember the artist of the song. And they talk about wasted time. So there's always been this thing surrounding time.But when you realize about your energy, you attract what you are. You attract certain things, because everything is energy. You start being more selective about your thoughts and what you do and how you speak.

[01:43:55] Speaker 3: What does your tongue do? Does it injure? Does it injure? Or does it heal? What are you trying to do? With your ears, what are you... Are you eavesdropping? What are you doing? What are you doing with your eyes? Are you looking to, to see what you can gossip about? What are you doing with those eyes? When you look upon something, it may not be what you think it is. You just look... You don't judge it, you just keep it moving. Because you just want... You just want peace, you just want, like, to be something that makes life better. You wanna not injure. You don't wanna be the cause of a disturbance. Maybe. Or do you want to be a cause? That's what you have to decide. What type of energy you want to be around, what type of energy you want to attract. What are you thinking in the moment? What part do you want to play in this dimension? What do you want your legacy to be? What people around you? What do you want? What, what is your contribution to the time that the matter of...

[01:45:49] Speaker 3: that you took up the space, that you took up in this dimension? What is your contribution? Very important, because before you know it, it's like... Yeah. But it's, it's, it's... Like, right now, I'm thinking of the moment and how beautiful this is, that I had this time to share with-

[01:46:39] Speaker 2: Well, thank you, Beverly. (laughs) It's always lovely to have you here. I, I just smile when I listen to you. (laughs) Well, you smile- A lot of people called me the other day and said-
