So, something I find, you know, quite interesting is that I think one of the keys to life is

being a great observer, I understand, I think that is my gift.

You know when I was young, I didn't really talk much, I just observed, and that's when

I was able to study people's emotions and like their mannerisms, and I think that's

where I developed a little bit of my emotional intelligence, was by just not speaking, by

observing, there's actually a lot to learn when you just close your mouth, silent the

mind, and allow everything that's going around you to be.

And all around us nature is just being, isn't it?

Look at the sky, the sky is just being, the sky doesn't react to the birds, right?

The birds just fly right by.

So we, we should be like the sky, be like the sky to our own thoughts, to our own emotions,

right?

Be a great observer, knowing that within us you can unlock keys to your own wisdom, and

I think every single day we can do this by just starting with our breath.

All right, like how beautiful is the breath?

This is your life, this is your essence, this is your spirit, whenever a strong emotion

or thought comes, just take a deep breath, breath, breath, you know, through it, it's

a simple act, but it's grounding, you understand, we ground ourselves, we root ourselves,

you know, one of my favorite people, Y'all know, and also a mentor and spirit, is Bob

Marley, and he said, emancipate yourself from mental slavery.

Only ourselves can free our mind.

And I believe that sometimes to emancipate yourself, it begins with a single breath.
