  Speaker 1: Have you checked it out yet? Arrow.net, A-R-R-O-E.net. It's not
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: just a podcast. It is a podcast network, 21 different podcasts.
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: One of the big ones, music's lost history. I say
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: it like that because we've lost our way when it
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: comes to music history. Oh, we know the songs, but
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: we don't know the artists, nor do we know the
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: history of why that song came into being. We just
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: think it's just a Taylor Swift kind of thing. Ah,
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: it's a bad moment in your life. You're going to
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: write a song about it, right? Is that really how
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: it went down? Music's lost history only on arrow.net, A-R-R-O-E
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: dot net. Enjoy your exploration. When it's extremely difficult to
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: make up your mind, having that power of choice can
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: actually weaken a person's heart. On this episode, we're going
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: to focus in on being grateful, which can be a
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: very tough journey for 9 out of 10 people. What? Plus,
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: making the choice to stuff food into our guts. Do
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: we really know what we're eating? My name is Arrow.
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: Life is a series of choices. Who decides when you're
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: not making the right choice, and is it a fear
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: of things going wrong? The greatest lessons in life are
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: often lost inside hidden away attempts and concepts. Well, it's
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: time to reopen that ticker. Having the power of choice
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: is your daily gift. On this highway, we're going to
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: learn how to trust mirages. What is the choice? All right,
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: let's break this down. If Jesus saved 10 men, but
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: only one of them thanked him, what does that really
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: say about the power of choice? Yeah, the gospel of Luke.
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: It suggests several things here. Kindness, it can be given
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: away freely. It's gratitude that can't be forced. You know,
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: the J guy, he healed all 10 people, yet only
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: one of them responded. It's not just a modern reaction here.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: I mean, the truth is, it's miracles don't eliminate free will.
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: Even after being given a second chance in life, people
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: still feel it's in their ego system to not react
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: to something that's very good. Okay, let's go even deeper
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: than this. It reminds us that people will always respond
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: extremely different. They all went through the same experience, but
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: only one of them showed gratefulness? It is a choice,
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: which is profound. We may never get the real opportunity
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: to choose to what happens to us, but we always
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: have a chance and a choice to respond. Those who
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: show gratefulness are actually planting a seed near their family tree.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: Showcasing gratitude is a lesson in life that does have
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: a lasting impact on the multiple generations after you. Kindness
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: is given freely. Gratitude can be an act of force.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: Coming up next, making that choice to eat. Do you
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: really know what you're putting in that body? Hey, thanks
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: for coming back to The Choice. Making that choice to eat.
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: I mean, we've all got to do it, right? Does
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: the average person know what they're throwing into that body
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: as fuel? You know what the truth is here, and
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: that is, no, we do not. The average person, every
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: age group, does not know what they're doing while trying
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: to heal that hunger pain. Not because they don't care.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: I mean, food today is very complex. A great example
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: are the required labels on these cans and boxes. All
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: of these additives, preservatives, and artificial flavors. Most consumers have
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: no freaking idea what they're even looking at. Eating at
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: a restaurant means more salt consumption. Plus, let's not leave
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: out these jerk companies that overuse words like natural and healthy.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: That doesn't mean crap. It doesn't mean it's nutritious. Every
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: meal is your choice. Each choice may seem small, but
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: over months and years, those choices 10 to 20 years
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: ago influence who you are today. energy, weight, blood sugar level,
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: and heart health. Being more aware today of what you're
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: stuffing down that throat can be the better decision in
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: the future without obsessing over these little bitty single bites
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: of availability. It really is a choice. I'm Errol, and
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: that's what I was writing while the sun was waking
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: up on a brilliant new day.
