Hey, this is Tray. Thank you for joining us for another Thursdays with Mary Langston

and episodic guest appearances by Tray, at least until she can find somebody else to

answer these questions in a more timely fashion. Mary Langston, how are you? I'm doing okay,

Tray. How are you? I'm doing great. Thank you for joining us. Well, thank you for having

me, Tray. I hope you had a good week. Yes, sir. So far, so good. I hope you have and I hope

our listeners have to, you know, last week was so hard and it's still kind of into this

week as well. So thinking through things, but good week overall. Yeah, you know, that's

a podcast for a whole other time, but you put your finger on something. I mean, we are wired

to avoid pain. That is true biologically. I mean, I don't know the last time you touched

a hot stove has probably been a while because you're a very responsible person and you kind

of look at the eye before eye on the other hand, when I'm cleaning our stove, even if

the like, eye is still hot, I will try to clean as close to it as I can just because I'm

impatient and I don't want to wait. But when you touch something high, you immediately,

pain and emotional pain. We just want to move on. But sometimes the quicker you move on,

the more apt you are to not educate yourself or learn everything you can from what caused

the pain in the first place. So I do get it. I get the human condition is wired to want

to eliminate, reduce, flee from pain, which is why we don't light dwelling on horrific

things. I got a dwell on it at least long enough to say it hurts so bad. I don't want to

go through it again. That's exactly right. But like I said, that will be for another

podcast because I don't know. We may have a question about that today, but I doubt it

because it's just not. It's just so miserable to talk about and think about. So with that,
