Good morning, good afternoon, good evening.

Wherever you are out there in the world, it's time to step out onto the high wire.

I want you to take a moment right now, reach over to your arm and pinch yourself.

Make sure you're awake so you realize that no, this is not a dream.

You are not lost in some dystopian novel.

This is the world you live in.

We all live in it.

And if you're living in it right now, you're probably going through an experience much like

mine where you're trying to hold it all together.

You've got kids that are watching, mom and dad, you're trying to be chill while it feels

like the world is interrupting into pure insanity all around you.

Stay cool.

Do your best.

That's all you keep telling yourself.

Somehow this is all going to work out.

I saw a video this week that I think really set it all.

Do you feel a little bit like this guy?

That's right, eternal flame burns on no matter what is going on around you.

Those are riots breaking out in Barcelona, Spain while a keyboard player is trying to make

it all feel okay.

You know, when we look at what's going on right now, especially, you know, this is,

I know you're watching from all over the world.
