  Good morning from the chicken coop.
• 0:29
  Today is number three, Of our installments in our week-long
• 0:33
  lessons and today it's all about peace.
• 0:36
  I opened my mind up to the idea of having peace in my life.
• 0:42
  So often we are not good at we say we want peace but we are not
• 0:48
  good at opening our mind to it and I think this is really funny
• 0:52
  that we're having this conversation right now because I
• 0:54
  don't know if you can hear in the background.
• 0:56
  There's a dog barking. That is not my dog.
• 0:58
  That is my neighbor's dog. And the dog has been A
• 1:00
  uncontrollably barking all morning long and it's it could
• 1:05
  be something that could be very irritating.
• 1:06
  So I think the universe really provided me with an opportunity
• 1:09
  to talk about this because this dog often barks.
• 1:12
  And when I wrote this out and said, okay, well what I want to
• 1:16
  talk to them about this lesson, I want you to realize there's
• 1:19
  other ways to view the experiences in life and not look
• 1:22
  at them all from the perspective that we always choose to look at
• 1:25
  them for. So I always look at that dog as
• 1:27
  an irritation. And now, I can sit here and I
• 1:30
  can Say right, as I'm even looking at this and having the
• 1:33
  lesson myself, right along with all of you, I'm talking to you
• 1:36
  about finding peace and whenever an experience shows up that you
• 1:40
  don't necessarily, you know, know how to take or you take an
• 1:45
  automatic way. Like you've got to click in your
• 1:47
  head and that experience, just dictates you're going to show up
• 1:49
  a certain way with it and and that means when this dog barks I
• 1:53
  get aggravated. So it's perfect timing.
• 1:57
  It's absolutely perfect timing because I can sit here and I can
• 2:00
  Say well, what's another way I can look at this.
• 2:02
  And right now, I can be grateful that the dog barked, and we can
• 2:05
  hear him in the background. Maybe you guys can't hear them,
• 2:07
  but I hear them. And that's something that is a
• 2:10
  great lesson for us. So I can look at it and say,
• 2:13
  well, what other thing, it's providing a big example of my
• 2:17
  lesson. It's providing me with an
• 2:19
  opportunity to be able to stay peaceful.
• 2:20
  In a situation that is irritating, was listening to a
• 2:24
  dog bark, irritating. Yes.
• 2:26
  Is it providing me with a moment of looking at myself and saying,
• 2:30
  do I choose Is to be irritated by a dog barking.
• 2:33
  Can I let go of this? And the answer is, yes, I can,
• 2:36
  if I choose to but it only comes down to I create the opportunity
• 2:40
  to let it go. I create the opportunity for
• 2:43
  peace. I create the opportunity to have
• 2:45
  a different perspective. It's all about, you know, how I
• 2:49
  view it, and it's all about what direction I choose to take
• 2:53
  myself. So I want to open your mind to
• 2:56
  the fact that one, it's always an option.
• 3:00
  To have a different point of view and that's hard for some of
• 3:03
  us we don't like to say that we're we're like you know,
• 3:07
  willing to do that because we get hunkered down in our
• 3:10
  opinions. We get hunkered down in the way
• 3:11
  we see things and it robs us of Peace.
• 3:14
  It robs robs us of having those moments of Tranquility, it robs
• 3:19
  us of having the good stuff in our life because we're so
• 3:22
  hunkered down in something that offended us or set us up the
• 3:27
  wrong way. So if we're focused on peace and
• 3:30
  Focused on looking at peace. And we're focused on finding
• 3:33
  peace. It's easier for us to see it
• 3:36
  now, you notice I said easier, I didn't say it was easy.
• 3:39
  I said it's easier because it's still hard.
• 3:42
  Like I mean I can sit there and say to you yes, I'm working on.
• 3:46
  Not getting aggravated about the dog barking and especially cut
• 3:48
  since we're talking about it but the truth is the dog irritated
• 3:53
  me for a long time. Since we've lived here, the dog
• 3:55
  does this and he gets in these things and he just goes out and
• 3:58
  Barks and the owners to just like whatever they don't seem to
• 4:00
  Care. They're like, oh yeah, you get
• 4:01
  started. They know it.
• 4:03
  I do nothing about it. So I always have the opportunity
• 4:06
  to let it go. I have the opportunity to change
• 4:09
  how I see it and I do there are times, it's just so funny, how
• 4:14
  sometimes you're good at it and sometimes you're not, sometimes
• 4:17
  you're great at ignoring it and other times, your you can't
• 4:21
  ignore it at all. And other times, you don't even
• 4:22
  hear it, which is what I find so funny because there are times
• 4:25
  when I don't even notice it and I say, oh, okay, wow, that was
• 4:29
  cool. I didn't even notice Anymore.
• 4:31
  So, again, all about perspective, all about
• 4:34
  opportunity for seeing it all about.
• 4:36
  Having the ability to say this week, I'm working really hard at
• 4:41
  focusing on creating this Lighter Side.
• 4:45
  Again, it's all comes back to our original conversation about
• 4:49
  ditching, the heaviness of the, the emotion, and the world.
• 4:52
  That's going on around us right now and focusing on the light.
• 4:55
  Because that's the only way to cure things within yourself.
• 4:58
  And externally is when you bring more light, To a situation, you
• 5:01
  bring more darkness, that doesn't help.
• 5:04
  So I hope that you guys are going to be willing to try this
• 5:09
  one because it is a powerful one looking for peace is not
• 5:14
  something most people do. So you are going to be
• 5:17
  different, it is going to feel weird.
• 5:19
  It is not going to feel common do it anyway.
• 5:22
  Allow yourself the gift to give this a shot and see and remember
• 5:27
  the experience that you have is in complete control You're in
• 5:31
  complete control of it, you get to decide.
• 5:35
  I hope you guys have a very blessed peaceful day and I will
• 5:38
  see you tomorrow for lesson for bye.
