• 0:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, we were what was the story we
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: were doing earlier?
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: Yep, Well, we were doing this story about Monique and
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: how she's had this running fluid with feud with Tyler
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: Perry and Oprah Winfrey for about ten years, and how
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: she says she's not letting it go. She's just not
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: letting it go. She says, that's the reason we as
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: black people are treated the way we are. It stems
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: from slavery, because we don't let things go, and she's
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: not letting it go. That's what she said.
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, she said, because we let things go. Yeah, that's
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: why we Yeah, that's what Listen. This isn't for her
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: at all. This isn't for her at all. I'm just
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: talking to people in general about this subject right now
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: because I've learned I can't I'm not going to get
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: into that. I don't want my name in it. I
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: didn't say nothing one way or the other. I'm out
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: of it. Here's the deal. I want people to understand something,
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: the danger of holding on to things. You know. I
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: don't think people really understand the value of the statement
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: of what forgiveness is. I was taught, you know, as
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: a Christian we are to forgive, right, But I was
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: when you understand the reason why, it becomes quite beneficial
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: because forgiveness is Forgiveness doesn't mean you have to forget.
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: That's what people think. You suppost to forgive and let
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: a person back in your life and run the risk
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: of it happening. And again, forgiveness does not mean you
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: have to forget. Forgiveness allows you to no longer allow
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: that event or person to affect you. See, forgiveness is
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: not for the other person. It's for you. Most people
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: or events that you won't forgive in your life, those
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: people ain't even thinking about you. Those events have come
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: and gone. It's some people that have done you what
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: you consider dirty or wrong and then moved on with
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: their life. But every time you see them, every time
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: their name comes up, it conjures a thought in you
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: that just eats away at you like a cancer. Forgiveness
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: is not for the other person, it's for you. See
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: when you don't forgive, and watch the examples of this, y'all,
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: When you don't forgive, it's like you drinking the poison,
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: waiting on them to die. That's exactly what it's like.
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: All you got to do is look at the examples
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: of over and over and over of over of somebody
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: you see that just refuses to let go of the past.
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: Let me tell you something, why would you not let go?
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: Holding on to the past is of no benefit to you.
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: The past belongs to history, The future belongs to God.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: Your gift is the present. That's why they call it
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: the present, because that's the gift that you have, the now.
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: And let me tell you something, man, you let me
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: the best way to put this you You got to
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: let go of the darkness of your past because if
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: you don't, you will stop the bright future that you
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: can have. If if you hold on to the darkness
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: of your past, you will stop the bright future that
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: you can have. You can't drive your car looking in
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: the rear view mirror. You're gonna keep running into something, y'all.
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: It doesn't it will not hurt you to forgive a person.
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: It won't hurt you. Now you can hang on to
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: it if you want to. You can be stubborn. I
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: ain't letting it go. Okay, okay, Then guess what when
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: you don't let it go, it won't let you go either.
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: See holding on come both ways. It take two people
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: to hug. If you hugging your past, your pass is
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: hugging you. So if you holding on to it, guess
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: what it's holding on to you too. Now somebody's getting
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: prevented from something going on. That's the danger of holding on,
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: especially to something that's ill. That's just ill to you.
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: Something not correct, not happy, doesn't bring you joy, isn't positive.
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: You hang on to a negative, y'all. What you're doing,
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: what you're doing to yourself? Come on, man, you better
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: than that. You owe yourself more than that than to
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: hang on to the past. It's over. It's over, you know.
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: I finally this year I forgave somebody who did something
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: like really crazy to me during COVID somebody did something
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: real crazy to me doing the business deal. I set
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: the brother down. I forgave you, not then forget, but
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: I forgave it. Because right after I forgave him, do
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: you know what he did? He came back to me
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: and asked me for some money, and you know what
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: I had done. I say, hey, brother, I forgive you.
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: I promise you I did. But I don't think you
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: and I need to do any more financial dealings because
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: I think that's what got us in the bad place before.
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: So I just let him have the information that he needed.
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: But forgiving him did a great service to me because
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: I could worry about him every time his name came
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: up and didn't conjure up no bad thoughts in me.
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: You have got to let stuff go. You can't let
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: the darkness of your past stop the bright future you
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: can have. Don't do it to yourself, y'all forgiven the
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: same for the other person. It's the youth. Y'all. Have
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: a great day today, and the most important thing you
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: could do today, y'all, don't forget to talk to God today.
• 6:34
