Cadre Today

Good day sunshine Good day sunshine Good day sunshine I need to laugh And when the sun is out I got something I can laugh about I feel good. Good morning. We'll hit the pause right there, Newfie Lover Sue. Nice to see you, Cadre. Happy Friday. I hope you're doing okay. If you're not, know that is okay too. No matter where you are, no matter what's going on you walking into this space is always a good sign that you are on your side and we are too. I'm glad that I'm here. I'm glad that you're here.

I know what I know and I care about you. Our play in song today, A Little Good Day Sunshine by The Beatles, the Revolver album. The first verse brings us into a reminder of of how humans are really kind of designed to survive, to be in a space of resting and digesting and taking in the good stuff. Give a listen to the lyrics in the first verse. I need to laugh when the sun is out. I've got something I can laugh about. I feel good in a special way. I'm in love and it's a sunny day. I need to laugh.

That first lyric, the body craving something. The body craving something that is innately good for it. And the sun causes laughter. That's what the singer of this song is saying. Hey, I need to laugh and when the sun's out I got something to laugh about. There's a formula there. What do you need and where can you get it? Go to that place. Sometimes we need to remember. Sometimes we need to cry. Sometimes we need to let go. Sometimes we need to scream. Sometimes we need to move. Sometimes we need to be still.

We also know a lot of times the fuel to get to where we need to get to isn't there. Sometimes we need to to rest, but we're really anxious. Sometimes we need to move, but we're really tired. Sometimes we need to eat something that tastes good, like in a way that the world says, That's bad food. That's unclean food. And all of a sudden we go, Wait, what am I supposed to do? Because what I need is contrary to where I currently am. But as the singer of this song brings us down the pathway of, hey, I need to laugh.

When the sun's out, I got something to laugh about. I remember in my youth directing days, early 20s, my need for sunlight was very, very, very high. Anyway, I didn't get it. my seasonal reality would kick in, right? I'd get really down the times when the sun wasn't shining. So I got a little happy light at my desk. And here's the deal. For some people, those kind of sunshine lamps work for them, and others, they really don't. For me, it didn't really. But what it did do was it gave me an action that showed that I was doing the thing for myself.

Meaning, when I was down, I'd turn my lamp on. And I would know, in that moment, that I was giving myself the thing that I needed. The world wants us to not give ourselves the things that we need in the moments in which we need them. And yet, you have a cadre sphere here reminding you to listen to that voice inside. As I always talk about on Saturdays and the enoughness world, Your intuition is the part of your being that says, hey, do that. feels good and right. Listen to that voice. Give yourself the thing that you need.

And if all of a sudden you go, yeah, but what if I need a donut? Like, am I just supposed to eat a million donuts? I'd be like, well, no, because your body's going to not ask for a million donuts. Because your body doesn't need a million donuts. Your body doesn't want a million donuts. But if you're constantly living in that fight flight, Yeah, your body may start going, We're never on our own side. We're gonna get what we can get when we can get it. Yeah, you've trained yourself to be in that space.

And because the world has set you up to think that you aren't supposed to have the things that you need. Y'all, if you can get the things that you need, go get 'em. I'll see you tomorrow. I need to laugh And when the sun is out I've got something I can laugh about I feel good
