Hey, Cadre, how are we doing on this Saturday? I really hope you're doing great. If you're not, that's all right. You're still going to accomplish some pretty nourishing things today. You may have to pay attention for them. They may be small, like walking outside and having the sun hit your face and you squint and you go, it's nice to see the sun. It may be a smile from a stranger or an argument with one of your fur babies or one of your human counterparts on this planet. But even if you're not doing great today, here's your daily reminder.
You're still incredibly capable, still incredibly worthy, and you're probably still going to accomplish some pretty remarkable things today. I'm glad I'm here. I'm glad you're here, Marianne, and I know some things and how does it go? I'm glad I'm here. I'm glad you're here. I know the things I know and I care about you. It's been a few days since I've been able to say that. So I had to get the wheels off. Why has it been a few days? Because by golly, life has been nutty. I can see it in my eyes when I look at the screen right now.
It's like, oh, JC's got some extra wrinkles and some extra bags and that's A-OK. I get to do some pretty remarkable things in this world, and it's really fun. And yet, it may be perceived, if you look at the world and go, wow, there's people who are doing some pretty remarkable things. That must be pretty amazing, and it must make people feel pretty darn good. That's true. No one can take away that feeling. And no one can take away the feeling from when all of a sudden you go, oh my gosh, Am I a fool?
Am I a poser? Am I not any good? No one can take away those feelings either. I think sometimes the world tells us if you do this and this and this and this and this and this and sooner or later things like low self-confidence, low self-esteem, things like anxiety or panic or stress, that these things will go away or it'll get easier to experience them. No one can take away those feelings. The good ones Or the hard ones. And that's my invitation for you today. Know that the things that you're feeling are not indicators of, oh my gosh, I thought I had it figured out and now I don't.
Or, oh my gosh, I arrived and this feels so good. I finally made it and now the work is done. Now, no one can take away all the feelings that we have. Not a single darn one of them. So feel them, process them, share them, move through them. and allow yourself to know that is the normal process of being a live human being in this world. Our nervous system does not have an opinion. Our nervous system simply says something's happening and we get to decide what that thing is. Cadre, have a good one.
I'll see you tomorrow morning from the parking lot as I fill in for the job that I used to do for a long time. So every Sunday morning was in that parking lot up in the north there with the trees and the sunshine. Yeah. If you're a regular Sunday, 8 AM Central Standard Time person, I'll see you then. Bye.
