Hey, hey, hey, hoping everyone is good, hoping everyone is great.

Hoping that you are in, you know, a good space, sound mind.

It is 2024, y'all.

I feel like I need to say that again.

It is 2024.

It came so rapidly.

It did.

But I also would say that about 2023 and 2022.

2024 began interesting, but I can't take away from the fact that the end of 2023 showed a lot of things as well.

Daddy or whatever you want to call them. And also a well-renowned preacher, T.D. Jakes.

Cat Williams opened up about his experience as a comedian and also open up a can of worms when it related to

comedians such as Steve Harvey and Kevin Hart and Cedric the entertainer. He opened up a can of worms.

that what was done in the dark will come to the light, that eventually the things that are

hidden will be seen.

The people that we hold to these high esteems and standards will be shown the truth in some form or fashion,

and that sometimes God has to truly reveal who you are at the core of you for you to understand

what it is that you need to do better. I want to share something with you. There was a well-known man in my community

who was married for about 50 years. He had two sons. Oh goodness, his education was vast,

very educated man. He was also in the army. He was a part of community engagement. Any and everything in the community he was a part of, and he was well respected.

He also was a type of man whose no was no and his yeses were yeses.
