- 0:39Speaker 1: bono from you two. The Dude recently shared a quote
- 0:43Speaker 1: that's rocking the world of religion, But was it a
- 0:45Speaker 1: bash against believers? Plus, the medical world has changed the
- 0:50Speaker 1: view of who is and who isn't old? And what's
- 0:54Speaker 1: the new name and description? My name is Arrow. I'm
- 0:57Speaker 1: a daily writer, a silent wolf. I stand on the
- 0:59Speaker 1: sidelines and do nothing but watch, listen, study, then activate.
- 1:03Speaker 1: I happen to call it the Daily Mess because it's
- 1:06Speaker 1: a chronological walk through in everyday world. It is my
- 1:08Speaker 1: morning writing as a receiver of thoughts and ideas. We
- 1:12Speaker 1: as people tend to throw things to the side because
- 1:15Speaker 1: we think we're gonna deal with it later on. When
- 1:17Speaker 1: a subject arrives inside of me, dude, it is time
- 1:21Speaker 1: to dig in. It's still keeping that daily journal, but
- 1:24Speaker 1: but by doing the research that picture becomes clearer. This
- 1:30Speaker 1: is the daily mess Bono of you two. He recently said,
- 1:36Speaker 1: I wonder if religion is the enemy of God. It's
- 1:40Speaker 1: almost like religion is what happens when the spirit leaves
- 1:45Speaker 1: the room. Oh my, oh my, my, my, my. First,
- 1:50Speaker 1: let's make it very clear. When Bono of U two
- 1:53Speaker 1: says something like this, he is not criticizing what faith is.
- 2:00Speaker 1: It's all about what faith can turn into. It's the
- 2:03Speaker 1: difference between living a spiritual life versus organized religion, which
- 2:08Speaker 1: can be rigid and or hollow. So what does Bono
- 2:12Speaker 1: mean Religion is the enemy of God? The institution, the rules, rituals,
- 2:18Speaker 1: and hierarchy, the stuff that gets in the way of
- 2:21Speaker 1: a true universal connection. Religion isn't about having control or appearance,
- 2:27Speaker 1: because it can drift pretty fast from its original purpose. Well, then,
- 2:31Speaker 1: what about Bono's religion is what happens when the spirit
- 2:35Speaker 1: leaves the room over time, and you know this. If
- 2:39Speaker 1: you study over time religious studies, they become mechanical. You
- 2:44Speaker 1: know this because you probably have lived it. That's when
- 2:47Speaker 1: you hold onto the structure, but no real spirit or
- 2:52Speaker 1: meaning is living upon the chosen path. Bono isn't rejecting God,
- 2:57Speaker 1: He's warning that religion, when it's loosely authentic like it is,
- 3:02Speaker 1: it serves as a block. The daily goal is not
- 3:07Speaker 1: to confuse the system with the source. Hey, coming up next,
- 3:12Speaker 1: there's a brand new term when it comes to describing
- 3:16Speaker 1: great people, old people, those with age, those on the
- 3:21Speaker 1: opposite side of mid life. Hey, thanks for coming back
- 3:26Speaker 1: to the daily mess. A new term or description is
- 3:30Speaker 1: being used in the world of elderly or senior living.
- 3:34Speaker 1: That new description an active living person. Have you heard
- 3:38Speaker 1: that yet? An active living person. Research is showing that
- 3:43Speaker 1: saying active living or active adult mentally softens the moment
- 3:48Speaker 1: with a very positive way to walk with and work
- 3:51Speaker 1: with the older generation. So why such a change, Well, simple,
- 3:56Speaker 1: old and elderly make a person feel limited or even negative.
- 4:01Speaker 1: Since people are said to be living longer and healthier,
- 4:04Speaker 1: what are they but active living people? Getting older is dynamic,
- 4:10Speaker 1: not a descent in the chapters. Although we are starting
- 4:13Speaker 1: to hear more and more about active living in radio
- 4:17Speaker 1: and TV commercials, it still hasn't reached a formal replacement stage.
- 4:21Speaker 1: But it's part of a new trend that no longer
- 4:24Speaker 1: defines a person by their age, but rather how they're living.
- 4:29Speaker 1: The bigger question is are we being respectful when it
- 4:32Speaker 1: now involves how we live older and elderly people. That
- 4:37Speaker 1: thing is out lifestyle, independence, capability. That's the new hot button.
- 4:43Speaker 1: It almost feels like we're applying for a brand new
- 4:46Speaker 1: job and we're sitting right there in front of the boss.
- 4:50Speaker 1: So go ahead and tell me what kind of a
- 4:52Speaker 1: person are you? Well, I'm an active living person. You want,
- 4:58Speaker 1: I'm an active living person. Yeah, but you got a
- 5:01Speaker 1: little bit of gray in your hair? Yeah, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
- 5:06Speaker 1: I am not old. I'm an active living person. You're
- 5:10Speaker 1: going to go through it. People are going to test
- 5:13Speaker 1: you on how you think and how you live. And
- 5:15Speaker 1: the question is, and you should be asking yourself this
- 5:17Speaker 1: every day. Are you an active living person? And as
- 5:21Speaker 1: my father would say, then act like it. I'm Maril
- 5:25Speaker 1: And that's the daily mess
