00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:13,680
Hello and welcome back to another episode of Upfront and Undivided with Luke and Dean'na.

2
00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:14,680
Hi.

3
00:00:14,680 --> 00:00:15,680
Hey babe.

4
00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:16,680
How's it going?

5
00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:17,680
It's good.

6
00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:18,680
How are you?

7
00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:19,680
I'm good.

8
00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:21,760
How many different types of music are in your head about the time that you're doing this

9
00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:26,880
that you always say who we're about to be?

10
00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:29,160
It's, I'll be honest, it's not the music.

11
00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:30,160
It's just the intro.

12
00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:31,920
I do not hear the music.

13
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:34,440
It's literally the what podcast.

14
00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:40,400
Again, it's like years ago we learned how men's brains and women's brains work differently

15
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:46,560
and how it's like a woman's brain is all these connected wires and they're connected spots

16
00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:50,960
and it's really great and it's like connection to here to connect to there, connect to there

17
00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:56,520
and men's brains are very compartmentalized and it's like a box for this and a box for

18
00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:57,520
this.

19
00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:01,920
So I feel like I have to, okay, which box am I going into?

20
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:02,920
I got you.

21
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:03,920
Okay.

22
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:08,720
And it's almost like, I think it's almost like there's, it's not so much boxes in my

23
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:12,200
brain but it's almost like breaking down computer files.

24
00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:13,200
Okay.

25
00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:17,200
So it's like, or computer folders where it's like, okay, I have a podcast folder and I

26
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:21,600
went into that folder and now I have three subfolders for right now into that.

27
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:25,600
Well, four subfolders in that podcast, main podcast folder.

28
00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:30,720
So it's like, okay, which folder am I going into?

29
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:39,520
Where I do like an eighties remix of all three of the things in my, like the different music.

30
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:44,080
Which is funny because it's like, you don't even partake in mine.

31
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:45,080
But I listen to it.

32
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:46,080
That music still runs.

33
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:47,080
That stuff.

34
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:48,080
So a good friend, a good friend.

35
00:01:48,080 --> 00:02:00,160
Sent me a really funny reel, you know, cause you're talking about that.

36
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:02,880
And it was like, you know, how do they, how do they make heavy metal music?

37
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:03,880
You sent it to me.

38
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:04,880
Yes.

39
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:09,880
And it's like, you know, somebody sucking like the last bit of air out of a juice box.

40
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:12,680
And it's like, that's singing for heavy metal.

41
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:14,200
So I was like, that is so appropriate.

42
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:15,200
That is awesome.

43
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:18,240
And when the guy did it actually sounded like it.

44
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:19,240
Yeah.

45
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:20,240
That was crazy.

46
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:22,680
And the friend of mine that sent that to us, he used to do that.

47
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:25,960
So he's very aware of, yes, this is, this is heavy metal.

48
00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:29,400
I asked him one day, I was like, how do you even do that?

49
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:30,400
Right?

50
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:31,400
Yeah.

51
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:32,400
And he's like, you, you, what is it?

52
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:34,600
You suck in, you don't breathe out.

53
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:35,600
Yes.

54
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:38,600
And it was like, it's no wonder.

55
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:42,400
Like, just cause I'm thinking you are shredding those vocal cords.

56
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:44,400
And it's like, no, just like I'm sucking in.

57
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:45,400
I'm not breathing out.

58
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:46,880
And it's like, that's bizarre.

59
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:54,400
And apparently I've also seen, we're taking a really weird sidetrack rabbit hole.

60
00:02:54,400 --> 00:03:00,440
So from other people that I follow on Instagram, like people that are like heavy metal, like

61
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:06,240
screamers and stuff like that, there is, there's at least one well-known like scream coach.

62
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:07,240
Okay.

63
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:14,360
And she actually teaches people how to scream and how to do these really guttural, without

64
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:15,960
damaging their vocal cords.

65
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:21,680
I mean, here's how you can do this and sound good.

66
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:26,760
Because again, one of the ones that I followed that I found out about this coach is David

67
00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:29,320
Draben, the front man for Disturbed.

68
00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:30,320
For Disturbed.

69
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:34,440
The fact that he can scream and yell, but then also does that really great rendition

70
00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:35,440
of Sound of Silence.

71
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:36,440
It's one of my favorites.

72
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:40,680
That actually is on my playlist when we're on the treadmill and things.

73
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:41,680
Yeah.

74
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:42,680
No, that's cool.

75
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:43,680
That's cool.

76
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:47,120
And he also said that he doesn't speak a lot afterwards.

77
00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:48,120
Yes.

78
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:49,120
Yes.

79
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:50,120
After he has...

80
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:51,560
He admits that he basically becomes a monk.

81
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:52,560
Yeah.

82
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:55,160
And just gets real quiet and just lets his body rest.

83
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:58,680
And I would assume that that would have to be part of it.

84
00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:03,080
That you have to be very, very careful about what you partake in in every area.

85
00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:04,080
And self-care.

86
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:05,080
Yes.

87
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:09,480
And surrounding yourself with people that support you and are okay with that.

88
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:10,480
That's true.

89
00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:11,480
That's true.

90
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:12,480
Which...

91
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:14,160
Look at that.

92
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,600
We took a really weird rabbit hole trail.

93
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:17,760
Right to where we needed to be.

94
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:19,280
Right to where... really good segue.

95
00:04:19,280 --> 00:04:20,280
I think so.

96
00:04:20,280 --> 00:04:21,280
That was really fun.

97
00:04:21,280 --> 00:04:22,280
We did not plan that at all.

98
00:04:22,280 --> 00:04:23,280
Nope.

99
00:04:23,280 --> 00:04:24,280
Not at all.

100
00:04:24,280 --> 00:04:25,280
Proud of us.

101
00:04:25,280 --> 00:04:26,280
So proud of us.

102
00:04:26,280 --> 00:04:27,280
Look at us.

103
00:04:27,280 --> 00:04:28,280
Look at that Holy Spirit.

104
00:04:28,280 --> 00:04:29,280
Come on.

105
00:04:29,280 --> 00:04:30,280
Talking about heavy metal and everything.

106
00:04:30,280 --> 00:04:31,280
And he just takes us right there.

107
00:04:31,280 --> 00:04:32,280
Yeah.

108
00:04:32,280 --> 00:04:33,280
See?

109
00:04:33,280 --> 00:04:34,280
We have a diverse God.

110
00:04:34,280 --> 00:04:35,280
I like that.

111
00:04:35,280 --> 00:04:36,280
Yes.

112
00:04:36,280 --> 00:04:37,280
What are we talking about?

113
00:04:37,280 --> 00:04:38,280
Today we are talking about physical support.

114
00:04:38,280 --> 00:04:39,280
Okay.

115
00:04:39,280 --> 00:04:42,720
And then next week is week four of our...

116
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:43,720
Yes.

117
00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:44,720
...question four.

118
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:45,720
Of questions from the audience.

119
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:46,720
Questions from the audience.

120
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:47,720
And then I think...

121
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:48,720
Next episode will be our final.

122
00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:49,720
I think so.

123
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:54,560
And then are we taking a hiatus?

124
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:56,240
We are not planning on taking a hiatus.

125
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:57,240
Okay.

126
00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:58,240
We're gonna keep going.

127
00:04:58,240 --> 00:04:59,240
That is in the real.

128
00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:00,240
Beautiful.

129
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:01,240
You guys are taking...

130
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:02,240
Okay.

131
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:03,240
I just wanted to double check.

132
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:04,240
Yeah.

133
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:05,240
And then next week, what's important that's happening?

134
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:06,240
Next week is your birthday.

135
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:07,240
You're turning 49.

136
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:08,240
Woo hoo!

137
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:12,080
Listen, and all the girls that just cringed and just says,

138
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:14,040
oh, he said your age.

139
00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:19,560
Darn, Tootin, he said my age because I look good and I feel good and God is good.

140
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:22,920
And listen, even with all of my...

141
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:28,960
Sometimes my hurts and my squishes and my aches and my pains and my things, I am alive.

142
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:30,640
I am loved.

143
00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:33,240
I am blessed.

144
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:35,040
And I'm still moving.

145
00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:36,720
I'm not stopping.

146
00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:37,720
I will not stop.

147
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:42,960
I will not stop because God has entrusted me with a very precious gift and that is the

148
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:44,520
gift of life.

149
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:45,520
This is...

150
00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:48,680
Listen, guys, your bodies are the thing that you are accountable for.

151
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:51,520
You will be accountable for how you treated it.

152
00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:54,560
So do it well.

153
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:58,520
And fun fact about physical health and age.

154
00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:02,200
You found out today that you are roughly the same age as the Spice Girls.

155
00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:03,420
The Spice Girls.

156
00:06:03,420 --> 00:06:04,840
That was the coolest...

157
00:06:04,840 --> 00:06:05,840
Like you were in that...

158
00:06:05,840 --> 00:06:06,840
Yes.

159
00:06:06,840 --> 00:06:12,840
We had the day off today because we were going to do field day with our kiddo and they changed

160
00:06:12,840 --> 00:06:14,920
it for tomorrow, which we're like, I can't now.

161
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:15,920
I can't change.

162
00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:16,920
I can't.

163
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:17,920
I got things to do.

164
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:20,560
I actually have to work and got to do some stuff.

165
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:22,480
And your boss needed you.

166
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:25,600
So shout out to your boss if he listens to us.

167
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:27,500
If not, shout out to your coworker.

168
00:06:27,500 --> 00:06:29,600
Does he listen to us or does he just listen to you and the boys?

169
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:31,000
I think he just listens to me.

170
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:32,000
Oh, okay.

171
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:33,000
I'm not sure.

172
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:34,000
No, that's fine.

173
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:35,000
I'm not mad.

174
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:36,000
That's fine.

175
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:37,000
I'm not mad at my coworkers anyways.

176
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:38,000
Yes.

177
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:40,360
Shout out to every one of them because you do.

178
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:44,360
You go, you hang out with them and then you come home and you're in a good mood.

179
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:48,680
Not that you're not in a good mood, but there's just, there's genuinely something about being

180
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:55,160
surrounded by people kind of like what you're saying that kind of help support you in a

181
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:56,160
space.

182
00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:57,160
Yeah.

183
00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:58,760
It does help that the majority of them are veterans.

184
00:06:58,760 --> 00:06:59,760
Yes.

185
00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:02,840
So you guys are all twisted in some sort of fun way.

186
00:07:02,840 --> 00:07:03,840
Yes, we are.

187
00:07:03,840 --> 00:07:06,920
But it is, it's silly stories.

188
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:08,120
It's good stories.

189
00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:14,280
It's being able to communicate in a level and a place because not everybody understands.

190
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:15,280
Yes.

191
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:16,280
And it's good.

192
00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:17,280
Yes.

193
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:18,280
It is good.

194
00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:21,320
So you got to hang out with me today and then it was, we ran some errands, did some grocery

195
00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,640
shopping, picked up something for our daughter.

196
00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:31,640
And about that time I saw a magazine cover and it was, it was Victoria Beckham and Posh

197
00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:32,640
Spice.

198
00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:33,640
Yes.

199
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:35,920
And I went, I went 50, 50, 50.

200
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:36,920
What?

201
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:37,920
Wait a minute.

202
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:38,920
What?

203
00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:39,920
Spice Girls.

204
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:40,920
And I'm like staring at you going Spice Girls.

205
00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:41,920
Wait, babe.

206
00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:43,280
Like they came out when we were what?

207
00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:44,280
I don't understand.

208
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:45,280
We're on some high school.

209
00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:46,280
What's going on?

210
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:50,240
And so we found out 1994 was when they came out.

211
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:51,240
Right?

212
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:52,240
Is that what we said?

213
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:53,240
Yeah.

214
00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:56,360
So that was a year after I graduated, but a year prior.

215
00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:57,360
When did you graduate?

216
00:07:57,360 --> 00:07:58,360
96?

217
00:07:58,360 --> 00:07:59,360
Yes.

218
00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:01,000
I graduated May of 96.

219
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:02,000
Yes.

220
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:06,880
So those paying attention, number one, I am 18 months older than Luke.

221
00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:10,920
And your favorite story is that you got held back a year.

222
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:11,920
Yes.

223
00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:12,920
Not my favorite story.

224
00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:16,920
Not your favorite story, but it's not your favorite story at all.

225
00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:18,400
But one of the reasons why...

226
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:22,600
One of the reasons why I graduated in 96 was because I was held back a year.

227
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:23,600
Yeah.

228
00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,880
Because it would, it's like that doesn't math and it's like this is why.

229
00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:27,880
Because you were.

230
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:28,880
I was 19.

231
00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:31,240
And it's funny because you were 17 when you graduated high school.

232
00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:34,160
I was 19 when I graduated high school.

233
00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:35,160
Yep.

234
00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:36,160
So.

235
00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:40,920
I was the tiny of the kiddos and you were the older of the kiddos.

236
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:41,920
Yep.

237
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:42,920
It's fine.

238
00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:46,600
Anyway, so yeah, so I am as old as spice.

239
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:47,600
Yes.

240
00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:50,000
I'm not mad.

241
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:51,000
It's fine.

242
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:52,000
I'm in good company.

243
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:53,000
I saw pictures of them recently.

244
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:54,000
I'm like, all right, you all look good.

245
00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:55,000
Good.

246
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:56,000
All right.

247
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:57,000
That's what 50 is looking like.

248
00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:58,000
Come on.

249
00:08:58,000 --> 00:08:59,000
Yep.

250
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:00,000
Bring it.

251
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:01,000
Okay.

252
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:02,800
So we have one more question that we have from our audience.

253
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:03,800
Yes.

254
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:08,720
How do we support each other in physical health in marriage?

255
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:13,280
And I know that can take a lot of different forms because I mean, and we'll try to hit

256
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:14,280
them.

257
00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:18,400
I mean, it's impossible to hit like every aspect of physical health.

258
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:19,400
Yes.

259
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:24,320
But we'll try to hit some of the big ones are the ones that we think are kind of some

260
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:26,080
of the big ones.

261
00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:27,320
Right.

262
00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:33,880
Because again, I think one of our stories about within the first couple months of our

263
00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:38,360
marriage, I got hit pretty hard with a physical health attack.

264
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:41,000
It was like my wrist was all jacked up.

265
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,320
My ankles were all jacked up.

266
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:49,400
A lot of crazy stuff was happening like gout, heavy metal and just-

267
00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:53,080
You were bent over literally having to walk with a cane.

268
00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:54,080
Yeah.

269
00:09:54,080 --> 00:10:00,680
So again, and I think we've told that story how it was just that reminder of in sickness

270
00:10:00,680 --> 00:10:01,680
and in health.

271
00:10:01,680 --> 00:10:02,680
Right.

272
00:10:02,680 --> 00:10:03,680
Right.

273
00:10:03,680 --> 00:10:08,760
But it's like, what do we do?

274
00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:15,760
If something like that happens, and I think it when stuff like that happens, it's easier

275
00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:23,120
for a spouse to say, well, of course I'm going to support my spouse in this time of them

276
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:27,760
being hurt or injured or something is going on.

277
00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:29,880
Oh, you just had your gallbladder out.

278
00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:34,880
Oh, you just had surgery to remove a lump from the side of your breast.

279
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:35,880
Right.

280
00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:36,880
Two surgeries actually.

281
00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:39,880
Two surgeries, yes.

282
00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:44,960
It's easier for us to look at each other and say, well, of course, that's your physical

283
00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:45,960
health.

284
00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:48,600
Yes, I'm going to take care of you.

285
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:53,360
But it's like, I almost feel, and we didn't talk to really the people that ask these questions

286
00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:55,920
and say, hey, can you fill us in?

287
00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:57,040
What exactly did you mean?

288
00:10:57,040 --> 00:11:02,480
So we're kind of blindly saying, we're assuming we think we know what people mean.

289
00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:05,920
We don't know what people mean, but this is how we interpret it.

290
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:06,920
Yes.

291
00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:16,720
But I see it as different than that because again, it's so many aspects of, do we talk

292
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:27,080
about the motivation or not to be physically active, go out for walks, go to the gym.

293
00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:28,080
Which is where we're headed.

294
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:29,080
We're done with this.

295
00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:35,320
Because we were having a debate earlier about, do we record first or do we gym first?

296
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:36,480
We record it first.

297
00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:39,620
You are a priority.

298
00:11:39,620 --> 00:11:40,620
But it is.

299
00:11:40,620 --> 00:11:48,080
So how do we prioritize those kind of things or what if you're somebody that, oh, I like

300
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:50,800
being physically active, my spouse doesn't.

301
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:55,040
How do you navigate those waters?

302
00:11:55,040 --> 00:12:01,360
Because for a while, it's kind of, I can see where a spouse would be like, well, that's

303
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:02,360
fine.

304
00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:03,360
That's your walk.

305
00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:04,360
That's your journey.

306
00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:05,800
I'll be over here.

307
00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:12,720
But eventually I could almost see where that could introduce a wedge into the marriage.

308
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:18,280
I will be as vocal as to say I could see where that would absolutely infuriate and piss somebody

309
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:19,280
off.

310
00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:20,280
Yeah.

311
00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:24,320
I mean, I'll just go there because I know that when you were hurting, and again, absolutely

312
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:27,560
no fault of your own.

313
00:12:27,560 --> 00:12:29,800
This just all of a sudden happened.

314
00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:30,800
And it was day three.

315
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:31,800
It was a day three.

316
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:32,800
Yeah.

317
00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:37,240
And you being in bed, you literally go to bed and then you'd go to the bathroom and

318
00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:38,640
then you'd come back to the bed again.

319
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:40,280
You would not go anywhere else in the house.

320
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:41,280
You wouldn't move.

321
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:42,920
You just kind of lay there.

322
00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:44,080
And you were in pain.

323
00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:45,080
We understand.

324
00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:47,440
Listen to me, guys.

325
00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:49,760
This is not me being cold hearted at all.

326
00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:52,960
I genuinely believe that this was one of those moments.

327
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:58,480
And this is something I will say that you need to really ask the Holy Spirit to guide

328
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:09,600
you in it because I walked over to our bed, climbed pretty much over you and said, it's

329
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:12,080
time to get up now.

330
00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:18,080
Because I think what was happening was when we start physically hurting or we're not feeling

331
00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:24,000
good, the enemy wants to not just attack you physically, but mentally and emotionally and

332
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:25,860
spiritually.

333
00:13:25,860 --> 00:13:26,920
It starts to weigh on you.

334
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:28,280
It gets really heavy.

335
00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:29,660
And I think that that's what was happening.

336
00:13:29,660 --> 00:13:36,440
I was starting to watch the enemy starting to bring a darkness over you and into our

337
00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:37,880
home.

338
00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:42,440
And I said, we're getting up and we are going to the pool.

339
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:49,240
And if I have to put you on a floaty and float you around on a lazy river, you are going

340
00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:51,120
to get outside.

341
00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:54,880
And you obliged me, which was very precious.

342
00:13:54,880 --> 00:14:00,600
I think that in itself was a good thing because sometimes that's not always the case.

343
00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:02,320
Somebody will fight you.

344
00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:07,200
And you didn't, which I'm grateful that you didn't.

345
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:13,400
And I think I will say, and you could correct me if I'm wrong, I will say, yes, number one,

346
00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:17,760
we were freshly married, but we also have been very, very careful of how we speak to

347
00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:19,360
each other.

348
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:28,560
And you heard not just my words, but you heard the intensity in my voice of like, we've got

349
00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:34,200
to go because if you don't get up, you're going to die here.

350
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:41,040
And it's like having a great understanding of that or trusting your spouse enough to

351
00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:42,920
say, I don't feel good.

352
00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:49,000
And then looking at you saying, I know you don't now, but I promise if we get moving,

353
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:52,400
it is going to get better.

354
00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:58,120
And we're going to, you know, cause like, again, we're almost 49.

355
00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:01,280
I've got like, sometimes my hip doesn't want to work with me.

356
00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:04,080
Sometimes my back gets weird, just things like that.

357
00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:08,280
Things that I'm praying for, praying, you know, God, Father, thank you for healing me.

358
00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:09,920
Thank you for restoring me.

359
00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:14,160
But I also know that there's those times where you stand back and you say, I've got to move.

360
00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:16,720
Number one, it's going to help me in my health.

361
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:19,220
But number two, I'm going to hurt anyway.

362
00:15:19,220 --> 00:15:24,360
So I might as well move, enjoy my spouse while I'm moving.

363
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:29,280
Even if I'm hurting, the fact is that I, I at least am trying to take back what the enemy

364
00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:31,080
has stolen from me in that point.

365
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:32,080
Yeah.

366
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:33,080
And that's true.

367
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:34,080
And, and it is.

368
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:38,480
And that's, and I think that's, you know, it's so often, especially with the physical

369
00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:42,720
health, you know, with the, you know, getting out and being active, you know, and I'm not,

370
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:48,400
I'm not saying, you know, well, you know, you should go out and run 5Ks together and,

371
00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:50,120
you know, do these extreme things.

372
00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:55,160
It's like, no, do, do the level that you're, we have, we have done crazy things together,

373
00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:57,880
but you know, we haven't really done them on a consistent basis.

374
00:15:57,880 --> 00:15:59,840
Like, it's like, oh, this is what we do.

375
00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:01,200
We're going to go run marathons.

376
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:06,800
It's like, no, I would, I would probably throw up if I even thought about running a marathon

377
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:10,160
seriously, but yeah, I don't, I don't run.

378
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:14,640
I will cheer you on all day, all three to four hours that you're running.

379
00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:18,400
I will find a golf cart and I will ride alongside of you and I will cheer.

380
00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:20,200
I will be your biggest cheerleader.

381
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:22,240
I'll bring Sparks with me.

382
00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:23,240
She'll run.

383
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:24,240
She will run with you.

384
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:31,080
But yeah, it's just, but again, you know, what, what level of activity is good for the

385
00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:32,080
two of you?

386
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:37,600
You know, what level of activity not only is good for the two of you, but what can the

387
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:39,120
two of you have fun with?

388
00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:40,120
Yeah.

389
00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:45,960
Even if it's just going for a walk, go for a walk, hold hands, you know, or go to planet

390
00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:48,240
fitness and hold hands while you're on the treadmill.

391
00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:49,480
We have been known to do that.

392
00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:50,480
We have done that together.

393
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:51,480
Yes.

394
00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:58,880
Um, you know, but again, it's, it's the getting out and, and being together, you know, it's,

395
00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:01,320
it's, it's another opportunity for a connection.

396
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:07,640
It's another opportunity for a, another level of conf, uh, I don't know.

397
00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:10,400
I don't know why some, uh, communication.

398
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:11,400
Yes.

399
00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:12,400
The word I'm looking for is communication.

400
00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:13,400
Yes.

401
00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:15,320
Another level of communication.

402
00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:22,920
Um, because that is ultimately that's important and that needs to be a priority in our marriages.

403
00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:23,920
Yeah.

404
00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:30,260
I keep seeing, um, like we have a sweet, sweet friend of ours just, uh, had surgery herself

405
00:17:30,260 --> 00:17:34,120
reached out to Gabriel and I, so my shout out to our sweet friend.

406
00:17:34,120 --> 00:17:38,080
So, um, it's like, well, what if I can't do certain things right now?

407
00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:41,800
What if I just physically just, my body is just whatever it's doing.

408
00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:42,800
Right.

409
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:47,360
Um, and you know, having one surgery of or another, or maybe like something's going on

410
00:17:47,360 --> 00:17:50,920
with your foot, something that you physically cannot move.

411
00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:51,960
What do you do?

412
00:17:51,960 --> 00:18:00,320
And I instantly saw you do card games, you do board games, you laugh, you, um, you know,

413
00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:06,280
do the best you can because our sweet boy and you have decided that you're, you guys

414
00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:07,760
are going to start your own business.

415
00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:08,760
Yeah.

416
00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:11,600
It's going to be a medicine business of some sort, but it's going to be natural and it's

417
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:13,440
going to be good.

418
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:20,400
And um, knowing that laughter does the heart good like a medicine.

419
00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:26,440
And so get to a space where, you know, maybe just that you guys are laughing together,

420
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:27,440
together.

421
00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:28,440
Yes.

422
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:36,760
Um, that, that, that pulls in something that, that dopamine or that chemical, whatever that

423
00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:43,840
is that ties you to that person because it's like it, you are now creating a shared experience

424
00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:46,000
that's making you laugh.

425
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:49,880
And I know that your laugh is one of my favorites and my life is one of your favorites.

426
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:56,400
And then once you start hearing your favorite person's laughter, it becomes even more contagious.

427
00:18:56,400 --> 00:19:02,040
And it's like just knowing that all of a sudden life isn't so heavy stuff.

428
00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:04,560
Isn't so right.

429
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:11,540
Um, you know, that, you know, you can see the light on the, on the other side of this,

430
00:19:11,540 --> 00:19:15,200
it's going to be okay because it does it.

431
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:21,880
It creates that, you know, cause a heart deferred, you know, if you, it, it just makes it or

432
00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:22,880
what is it?

433
00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:23,880
Hope, hope deferred.

434
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:25,000
That was it.

435
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:28,240
Hope deferred makes a heart sick.

436
00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:30,920
So if you don't have hope, that's in the word of God.

437
00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:37,200
So if you do not have hope, if your hope becomes like, well, I'm never, I'm never going to

438
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:38,200
get better.

439
00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:39,200
Yeah.

440
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:41,400
I'm never going to get back where I was.

441
00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:44,520
I'm never, you and I've been caught up in that before.

442
00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:49,320
You know, you had that rotator cuff surgery, you know, just me having babies, just stuff

443
00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:54,360
happening, a standing back going, wow, I don't look like I did when we got married or I don't

444
00:19:54,360 --> 00:19:55,960
do what I used to do.

445
00:19:55,960 --> 00:19:59,000
And then standing back and saying, that's okay.

446
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:00,000
That's okay.

447
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:01,000
The thing is, is that we're still moving.

448
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:02,880
We're in a new season of our lives.

449
00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:05,300
We're on a new path, a new journey.

450
00:20:05,300 --> 00:20:07,220
This didn't take God by surprise.

451
00:20:07,220 --> 00:20:11,080
And now we're going to ask him, how would you like to rebuild our body?

452
00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:18,320
How would you like to redo what needs to be done, you know, to restore it, not just fix

453
00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:19,320
it?

454
00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:20,320
Right.

455
00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:21,320
So.

456
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:28,480
I think, and I think another aspect, I'm going to shift a little bit here, talking, still

457
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:30,760
talking about physical health.

458
00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:31,760
Yeah.

459
00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:33,840
But I'm going to say diet.

460
00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:34,840
Yes.

461
00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:39,520
I'm going to say, you know, because, you know, because again, it's, it's kind of like the,

462
00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:43,920
you know, it's, it's back to the, you know, somebody wants to be really active and, and

463
00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:48,680
the other doesn't, you know, how that can introduce a wedge.

464
00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:49,680
Yes.

465
00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:51,160
I'm going to, I'm going to use that.

466
00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:52,160
I'm going to use that.

467
00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:53,160
Start using that a lot.

468
00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:54,160
Yes.

469
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:55,160
But introduce a wedge.

470
00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:56,160
Yeah.

471
00:20:56,160 --> 00:21:06,560
But I think when it comes down to, to diet and, and how people eat and what people eat,

472
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:13,920
I think that can, you know, because again, it's, it's not that the two of you, it's,

473
00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:16,840
I'm not saying that the two of you should be on the same meal plan.

474
00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:20,520
No, because I can't eat the amount of food that you do.

475
00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:21,520
Right.

476
00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:24,160
But we can eat similar things.

477
00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:25,160
Yes.

478
00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:29,720
You know, kind of, I almost, I almost said eating out of similar buckets.

479
00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:31,720
I'm like, that sounds disgusting.

480
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:36,680
At times I wouldn't mind eating out of a bucket.

481
00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:41,160
Full of chicken and ribs.

482
00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:42,160
Probably.

483
00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:48,600
But, you know, but just, you know, again, it's, it's kind of back to, you know, I know

484
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:54,160
you and I, we've talked about, you know, making the, the, the smarter choices, making the,

485
00:21:54,160 --> 00:22:01,000
the healthier choices, you know, instead of, instead of option A, maybe go with option

486
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:02,000
B.

487
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:03,000
Yeah.

488
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:06,200
You know, make, make the little, make the little steps that are, are just a little bit

489
00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:11,720
better, you know, but it's like, you know, if you've got one spouse that always wants

490
00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:19,120
to eat at home and eat some of like the, the fresher whole food type stuff.

491
00:22:19,120 --> 00:22:20,560
Yeah.

492
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:24,440
Not the brand, but the description of food.

493
00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:25,440
Yeah.

494
00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:30,920
Versus the one that always wants to hit the drive through.

495
00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:35,560
You know, that's, that's going to be, again, that can cause contention.

496
00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:38,680
That can cause, that can introduce a wedge.

497
00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:39,680
Yes.

498
00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:47,680
You know, in marriage and so it's, I think, I think it's one of those, yeah.

499
00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:48,680
Yeah.

500
00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:49,680
Say it.

501
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:56,720
So I literally, as you're talking, I literally was seeing, dang it, dang it, dang it.

502
00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:57,720
Okay.

503
00:22:57,720 --> 00:22:59,000
Just going to say it.

504
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:04,560
I was seeing where it's like, okay, you've got the one spouse that can eat anything they

505
00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:08,720
want to, and it appears as though nothing is changing.

506
00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:09,720
Yes.

507
00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:10,720
Like, I'm fine.

508
00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:13,640
I don't see what your problem is.

509
00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:19,960
And then it's like, but if I eat this or if I eat this, then it starts affecting my body,

510
00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:20,960
my gut health.

511
00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:21,960
I don't feel good.

512
00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:25,400
My energy level, I don't think is clearly, see what I'm saying?

513
00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:29,200
This isn't just, you're just not, we're not just talking about our waistlines here.

514
00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:34,920
We're talking about our full function as far as our human beings, the makeup of who we

515
00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:35,920
are.

516
00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:43,720
And you've got some, but then the same spouse that is like, well, I can eat anything I want

517
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:44,720
to.

518
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:46,840
I don't know what your problem is, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

519
00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:51,320
And they're not helping that other spouse because they're seeing what's going on with

520
00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:52,320
them.

521
00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:55,800
And the other spouse is like, listen, I can't even fit in my pants.

522
00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:56,800
I don't feel good.

523
00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:57,800
This is not good.

524
00:23:57,800 --> 00:23:59,560
I'm not sure what's going on.

525
00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:04,760
And if the spouse that can eat anything they want to starts bashing that other spouse because

526
00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:08,200
they're like, well, you should be going to the gym or you should work out more.

527
00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:09,200
What are you doing?

528
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:11,400
You're not doing anything.

529
00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:18,160
Knowing that this other spouse is drowning because they're trying to concede or they're

530
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:21,160
trying to please this other spouse.

531
00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:22,480
Okay, no, I get it.

532
00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:23,480
That's fine.

533
00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:24,480
We can do this.

534
00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:25,480
That's fine.

535
00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:26,480
But can we do it in a moderation?

536
00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:28,880
That's yours and my favorite thing.

537
00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:33,600
We always tell people in moderation, unless the Holy Spirit has told you directly, no

538
00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:35,200
moderation.

539
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:40,120
If it says no in the word of God, that's the no, that's a no.

540
00:24:40,120 --> 00:24:43,440
Otherwise it's moderation.

541
00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:50,320
You want to be aware of this person because baby, you're my counterpart.

542
00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:53,180
What happens to you physically affects me.

543
00:24:53,180 --> 00:24:54,180
It just does.

544
00:24:54,180 --> 00:24:59,920
Just mentally, emotionally, spiritually, whatever is going on with you in that moment, it is

545
00:24:59,920 --> 00:25:02,640
going to affect me.

546
00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:10,760
And I need to be a good solid spouse that is an encourager.

547
00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:14,200
And if I'm the one and I am the one out of the two of us, I am the one.

548
00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:15,800
I can't eat just anything.

549
00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:17,480
I can't.

550
00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:20,160
My body says, no, thank you.

551
00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:22,720
And that's okay.

552
00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:28,040
You are gracious enough to say, I know that this affects my wife's gut health.

553
00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:31,360
I understand that this makes Dina uncomfortable.

554
00:25:31,360 --> 00:25:33,200
I don't want her uncomfortable.

555
00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:34,960
I don't want her feeling gross.

556
00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:40,880
Okay, babe, what can we do together that is going to satisfy the craving that's inside

557
00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:49,480
of you for the massive amount of meat that you want to eat?

558
00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:55,080
And at the same time, making sure that we're feeding the little rabbit that lives inside

559
00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:57,040
of me at times.

560
00:25:57,040 --> 00:25:59,600
And it's like, what do you do?

561
00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:05,680
And it's being aware, not just of yourself, but being aware of your spouse.

562
00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:09,360
That reel that you sent me where it was the man and the wife, I felt so bad.

563
00:26:09,360 --> 00:26:13,960
Where, you know, he knew everything about her, like all of the favorite things, the

564
00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:16,000
way she eats, all of the stuff.

565
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:18,080
She knew nothing about him.

566
00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:24,200
And I proved that point this morning by bringing you something that you did not like for breakfast.

567
00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:26,200
It's not your favorite.

568
00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:27,200
Yes.

569
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:29,020
I was going to say it's not that I don't like it.

570
00:26:29,020 --> 00:26:31,160
You ate it, but it was not your favorite.

571
00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:36,720
But the fact is that it is, it's that being more intentional, being aware of each other's

572
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:38,200
health concerns.

573
00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:43,480
We should be up in each other's Kool-Aid when it comes to, you know, like you went with

574
00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:47,400
me to every exam when it came to my breast.

575
00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:52,640
And you went with me with almost every exam when it came to Sebastian.

576
00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:56,360
And the times that you didn't, we had a great support team that came.

577
00:26:56,360 --> 00:26:58,320
You know, it's like...

578
00:26:58,320 --> 00:26:59,640
And or I was on the phone with you.

579
00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:01,280
Or you were on the phone with, yep.

580
00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:05,080
You were usually on the phone on speaker listening to everything that was going on.

581
00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:09,880
So it's like, be in that space with your spouse.

582
00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:15,160
I for the most part have gone to every one of your major appointments with any doctors

583
00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:20,200
and outside of drawing blood because we know that that wigs me out.

584
00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:23,840
But I will go because I love you.

585
00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:25,480
If you ask me, I will go.

586
00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:32,080
So being a support, not just, hey, let's go run or hey, let's go lift some weights.

587
00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:34,040
Hey, let's go whatever.

588
00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:36,600
It's how are you today?

589
00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:38,600
What's going on with you today?

590
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:42,560
I told you, I woke up this morning and then I told you all of the things that made my

591
00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:46,200
mind kind of go, I'm in a bad space today.

592
00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:50,400
I don't like anybody outside of our family today.

593
00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:51,920
Sorry guys, don't like you.

594
00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:52,920
And it's fine.

595
00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:53,920
I'll be better.

596
00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:54,920
That means it's my fault.

597
00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:58,360
I'm not saying something's going on with me that I need to figure out.

598
00:27:58,360 --> 00:27:59,760
Or being aware of that.

599
00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:01,680
Or it's just a straight up attack.

600
00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:02,680
It's a straight up attack.

601
00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:06,080
There doesn't necessarily need to be something wrong with you.

602
00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:07,080
It's an attack.

603
00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:08,080
I appreciate that.

604
00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:12,240
Probably is more of that than the other because it is something very, very dumb.

605
00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:13,240
Yeah.

606
00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:17,080
Something very, very dumb.

607
00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:21,080
And I'll say, you know, kind of to pull back a little bit.

608
00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:29,200
There, I mean, again, I do, I pay attention to a lot of, I try to absorb a lot of information,

609
00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:36,360
especially when it comes to food and physical health and stuff like that.

610
00:28:36,360 --> 00:28:37,360
I am not the best.

611
00:28:37,360 --> 00:28:40,720
I'm not the greatest, but I at least have a lot of information.

612
00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:42,520
A lot of knowledge.

613
00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:45,560
Yes, thank you.

614
00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:55,040
But again, the fact that the foods that we eat can also affect our mental health and

615
00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:58,240
our attitudes and our personalities.

616
00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:06,040
You know, I mean, outside of a marriage, I mean, just the list of things that it's like,

617
00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:11,640
oh yeah, if you feed these foods to your kids, their personalities can change overnight.

618
00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:16,760
And if you stop feeding these foods to your kids, they'll all of a sudden become better.

619
00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:22,960
It's kind of like the shows that they watch and stuff like that.

620
00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:25,400
But it's true.

621
00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:35,720
There's so much stuff in the world that can affect how we live, how we walk, how we do,

622
00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:40,120
what we do, if we can do.

623
00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:51,040
So again, it's just, it's like I want to, I'm trying to figure out how to say, we need

624
00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:52,580
to be better.

625
00:29:52,580 --> 00:29:57,440
Not only do we need to be better for ourselves, but we need to be better for our spouses.

626
00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:09,960
And we need to encourage our, how can we encourage the best that is in our spouses so that they

627
00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:19,320
can, so they can see the best in themselves and also encourage the best in us so that

628
00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:22,800
we can see the best in ourselves, so that we can encourage, so they can see.

629
00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:23,800
It's a constant cycle.

630
00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:24,800
Yeah, it is.

631
00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:25,800
Absolutely.

632
00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:26,800
Absolutely.

633
00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:30,000
And then you have your children in the mix and then it affects your children.

634
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:36,960
You know, because a lot of this comes, a lot of it comes down to, it's like, I almost want

635
00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:42,920
to say what you want to see in yourself, that's what you get to encourage in your spouse.

636
00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:50,840
This is one of those things where it's like, this, I think it's kind of appropriate of,

637
00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:55,520
I want to see this in myself, so I'm going to encourage this in my spouse because this

638
00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:59,640
is, we can then do this together.

639
00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:04,960
Or it's just, again, if I encourage this in my spouse, this will push me to do better

640
00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:05,960
in myself.

641
00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:06,960
Right?

642
00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:13,840
You know, again, if you said, you know, hey, let's run a 5K once a month, not my favorite.

643
00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:21,960
I will support you and I will do my best to be with you to run a 5K a month.

644
00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:22,960
Yes.

645
00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:23,960
You know?

646
00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:24,960
So you said that like I'm excited.

647
00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:25,960
I am not endorsing this.

648
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:26,960
I am not endorsing this.

649
00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:29,880
I am not committing to anything right now.

650
00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:31,200
You all are my witnesses.

651
00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:35,360
I am not committing to running a 5K a month.

652
00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:38,120
I'm going to look it up.

653
00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:43,800
But if you did, again, because I know this has been kind of on your heart.

654
00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:45,240
It's a little bit of my bucket list.

655
00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:46,800
It is on your bucket list.

656
00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:50,000
I know one day you want to run at least a half marathon.

657
00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:51,000
Yes.

658
00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:52,000
So I'm only half crazy.

659
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:53,000
Right.

660
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:54,000
Yes.

661
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:58,000
Just simply because I want to be able to see here's, and then let me tell you guys why.

662
00:31:58,000 --> 00:31:59,120
Okay?

663
00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:00,880
Because I want to see what I'm capable of.

664
00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:01,880
Yeah.

665
00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:02,880
It's just that simple.

666
00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:08,920
And I think if yours may not be a half marathon, yours may not be, you know, like you did the

667
00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:14,000
strongman things and the highland games and the stuff, right?

668
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:15,280
Why do you do it?

669
00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:16,880
To see what you're capable of.

670
00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:18,440
I want to see what I'm capable of.

671
00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:24,880
I want to see what happens when I tell myself no.

672
00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:29,680
Like if I tell my flesh no, I want to see what I'm capable of when I say, you know,

673
00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:30,680
it starts screaming.

674
00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:38,680
I want to see what I'm capable of when I don't say stop.

675
00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:42,840
I want to see what I'm capable of because I want to see everything that God has put

676
00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:43,840
inside of me.

677
00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:47,720
And that's just not the physical aspect, but that's like, that's our workplace.

678
00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:49,280
That's us writing books.

679
00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:51,440
That's us getting our certificates.

680
00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:52,720
I'm going to start crying.

681
00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:58,620
Like all of a sudden I was like, wow, you know, I want to see like our beautiful brown

682
00:32:58,620 --> 00:33:00,880
eye girl and our sweet little guy, right?

683
00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:03,760
Like why do you guys push us?

684
00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:11,640
Because I want to see the potential of heaven unlock inside of you in such a way that you

685
00:33:11,640 --> 00:33:16,400
can say, Whoa, like God shows up on the scene.

686
00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:20,520
Heaven touches earth literally while you're doing whatever it is that you're doing.

687
00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:21,720
Well it's mundane, Dina.

688
00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:23,040
This is not a big deal.

689
00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:24,040
We got a new dog.

690
00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:25,040
We took it for a walk.

691
00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:27,080
We're doing all the things are just blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

692
00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:29,440
No, see like it becomes a puzzle piece.

693
00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:30,440
It becomes a catalyst.

694
00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:31,860
It becomes something.

695
00:33:31,860 --> 00:33:34,000
What can you do?

696
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:39,160
What are you capable of doing when, when you tell the enemy?

697
00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:46,120
No, that is when, when you stop listening to the lies, when you stop allowing the roadblocks

698
00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:51,920
to stand in your way, man, instead of like letting it detour, you hurdle it.

699
00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:53,920
What happens or push it over?

700
00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:55,360
You're a push it over.

701
00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:56,560
You wouldn't be trying to hurdle it.

702
00:33:56,560 --> 00:33:57,560
You're trying.

703
00:33:57,560 --> 00:33:59,640
You're going to push it over and let's keep moving.

704
00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:00,640
Right?

705
00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:02,680
What can you do?

706
00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:04,360
What are you capable of?

707
00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:09,880
Because I guarantee you're not reaching the full potential of heaven in your life today.

708
00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:10,880
Yeah.

709
00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:15,680
And I'll, I'll also say I'll give my little also about the roadblock.

710
00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:16,960
Yeah.

711
00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:21,160
To, I mean, not to a degree, but pray about it.

712
00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:22,160
Yes.

713
00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:25,680
You know, and pray about the roadblock before you see the roadblock.

714
00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:26,920
I love that.

715
00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:32,240
Because when you come up to this roadblock, you know, and, and this, this is always the

716
00:34:32,240 --> 00:34:33,240
tricky part.

717
00:34:33,240 --> 00:34:43,240
This is always the tricky part about walking as a Christian is, is this roadblock of God

718
00:34:43,240 --> 00:34:45,080
or is this roadblock of the enemy?

719
00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:46,080
That's good.

720
00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:50,120
You know, because there, we all know that there are times where the enemy will try to

721
00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:55,280
trip us up and try to detour us off of our path, our walk with God.

722
00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:56,280
Right.

723
00:34:56,280 --> 00:34:59,000
To keep us from reaching our full potential.

724
00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:00,000
Right.

725
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:05,600
There are also times where God will put that roadblock saying, Hey, I want you to, I want

726
00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:07,320
you to put your energy over here.

727
00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:08,320
Yes.

728
00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:09,320
Not in this.

729
00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:10,320
Yes.

730
00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:11,320
You know?

731
00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:17,560
And so when we see those roadblocks, when we see, you know, let's say we're having

732
00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:23,080
a difficult time with our physical health, with our spouse's physical health, man, I

733
00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:24,840
wish, you know, I do.

734
00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:25,840
Okay.

735
00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:30,200
I want to say, I do not say this, but you know, man, I wish, I wish Dina was more active.

736
00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:31,600
I wish she would eat better.

737
00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:32,600
Yeah.

738
00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:36,920
You know, our sex life is not as like as good as it needs to be.

739
00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:37,920
Right.

740
00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:38,920
Okay.

741
00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:39,920
How about you do something about that?

742
00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:40,920
How about you help them?

743
00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:42,880
What do you need to do to help them?

744
00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:43,880
Yeah.

745
00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:44,880
Yes.

746
00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:47,260
You know, and you know, yes.

747
00:35:47,260 --> 00:35:48,260
Say something.

748
00:35:48,260 --> 00:35:49,260
Yes.

749
00:35:49,260 --> 00:35:50,800
Say something lovingly, please.

750
00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:56,960
Say something loving with, say something with the love, respect and honor of a spouse approaching

751
00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:57,960
another spouse.

752
00:35:57,960 --> 00:35:58,960
Yes.

753
00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:02,680
You know, their spouse, not another spouse, their spouse, their spouse, approach your

754
00:36:02,680 --> 00:36:03,680
spouse.

755
00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:04,680
Yes.

756
00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:07,120
You know, but again, pray about it.

757
00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:10,040
You know, God, God, God give me the words.

758
00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:11,040
Yeah.

759
00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:16,000
Give me the words that I can say, you know, give me the words that are going to be impactful,

760
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:18,440
not just for my spouse, but also for me.

761
00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:19,440
Yes.

762
00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:26,240
Because what if it's something of I decide to say something to you and all of a sudden

763
00:36:26,240 --> 00:36:30,880
it's like it comes as it comes out, it's like, oh wait, that was, that was for me.

764
00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:32,480
Yeah.

765
00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:34,960
You know, because that we all know that happens.

766
00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:35,960
Yeah.

767
00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:41,200
I mean, how many times, you know, have we like prayed for somebody or seen somebody

768
00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:43,920
pray for somebody else and all of a sudden it's like, oh wait, that was actually for

769
00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:44,920
me.

770
00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:45,920
Yeah.

771
00:36:45,920 --> 00:36:52,360
So I'm praying it over you to help you, but the words are meant to spark something in

772
00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:53,360
me.

773
00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:54,360
Yeah.

774
00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:55,360
That's good.

775
00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:56,360
That's good.

776
00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:57,360
Yeah.

777
00:36:57,360 --> 00:36:58,360
No, that's good.

778
00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:12,080
I like that, but it is, it's, it's a thing of don't harp in a space, but don't, don't

779
00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:13,760
pussy foot around each other either.

780
00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:14,760
Yeah.

781
00:37:14,760 --> 00:37:19,040
Don't make shells, but don't nag, don't harp, don't be little.

782
00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:21,560
Start setting the example, set the example.

783
00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:22,560
Yeah.

784
00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:29,800
And, and, and make it from a place where you say, cause ultimately here's the bottom line.

785
00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:31,840
Why are you and I active?

786
00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:32,840
We say this a lot.

787
00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:33,840
Yeah.

788
00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:34,840
Why are you and I active?

789
00:37:34,840 --> 00:37:38,560
We're active cause a number one, we're accountable to what it is that our bodies are.

790
00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:39,560
Okay.

791
00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:40,560
How we treat our bodies.

792
00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:45,120
Number two, I want to live long and prosper.

793
00:37:45,120 --> 00:37:52,640
I want to, I want to run hard into my hundreds with you right there by my side.

794
00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:58,960
And I don't want sickness and I don't want junk and I don't want stuff of this world,

795
00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:01,720
something that I know that I could have done better.

796
00:38:01,720 --> 00:38:08,420
I don't want that to be the reason why I get erased prematurely off this earth or you.

797
00:38:08,420 --> 00:38:14,600
And I also, we also do it because we want to live long and prosper for our children.

798
00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:19,960
And then maybe one day our grandchildren and then our great grandchildren, whatever that

799
00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:20,960
looks like.

800
00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:27,280
It's like, we want, we want to be good stewards with what it is that God has blessed us with.

801
00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:31,240
And we don't want to be the old couple in the hospital bed.

802
00:38:31,240 --> 00:38:32,240
Come on, babe.

803
00:38:32,240 --> 00:38:37,640
You know, again, you know, it's like, what's wrong with, you know, like if we take, you

804
00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:44,280
know, grandkids or, or great grandkids to the zoo, it's like, I want to be able to walk

805
00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:46,320
with them through the zoo.

806
00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:48,520
You know, we, we want to be able to do that.

807
00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:49,520
Yeah.

808
00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:53,440
You know, we want to be able to reach and bend and squat and walk and walk and walk

809
00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:57,560
and pick up and pick up and then pick up some more.

810
00:38:57,560 --> 00:39:01,920
DG, come to what you need, baby.

811
00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:02,920
Yes.

812
00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:03,920
Yeah.

813
00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:04,920
I already have my own grandma name.

814
00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:05,920
Thank you.

815
00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:14,280
But yeah, it's, we want, we want to be good for, we want to be healthy.

816
00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:15,280
We want to be active.

817
00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:17,160
We want to be available.

818
00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:18,160
Yes.

819
00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:20,560
For today and for tomorrow.

820
00:39:20,560 --> 00:39:21,560
Yes.

821
00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:27,080
And I, man, I don't know what, father, you're being really okay.

822
00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:32,460
It's fine.

823
00:39:32,460 --> 00:39:34,320
I want to set an example for the church.

824
00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:38,080
I want to set an example for the body of Christ.

825
00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:44,080
You and I want to be able to stand in front of people and say, you can be better because

826
00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:48,940
with all due respect, gluttony is one of the biggest sins that this church, that the body

827
00:39:48,940 --> 00:39:54,960
of Christ allows to run rampant in the church.

828
00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:58,160
It, it's unfortunate.

829
00:39:58,160 --> 00:39:59,440
It's unfortunate.

830
00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:02,280
Gluttony is not moderation.

831
00:40:02,280 --> 00:40:06,000
Gluttony is, or not being a good steward with the body.

832
00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:12,280
And that seems to be a conversation that nobody wants to have that, and it sucks.

833
00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:13,600
It sucks.

834
00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:20,240
It's not okay because you have, you have pastors and you have people and you have congregations.

835
00:40:20,240 --> 00:40:22,560
They're dying prematurely.

836
00:40:22,560 --> 00:40:29,360
Even if they're still walking around there, they're dying because they have their joints

837
00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:34,960
hurt or they have excess on their bodies or whatever it diabetes, all of the different

838
00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:42,320
things, cancers, the stuff that is literally being created by the toxins and the junk and

839
00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:43,320
the stuff.

840
00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:46,280
We are not a crunchy couple.

841
00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:47,280
People call us chewy.

842
00:40:47,280 --> 00:40:52,040
I think I would say that I think the term they call us is chewy because we're just enough

843
00:40:52,040 --> 00:40:56,080
healthy, but we like our ice cream too, but we're going to make sure that it doesn't have

844
00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:57,820
a lot of the junk in it too.

845
00:40:57,820 --> 00:40:58,820
That's not the point.

846
00:40:58,820 --> 00:41:05,120
The point is, is moderation, but it's also just be a good steward with what you've got.

847
00:41:05,120 --> 00:41:08,320
Read the labels, figure out the things, do the stuff.

848
00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:09,960
You went through that program.

849
00:41:09,960 --> 00:41:13,400
It's the body by God is what it's called.

850
00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:17,120
And you're literally changing 1% every day.

851
00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:18,720
Do something different.

852
00:41:18,720 --> 00:41:22,620
If you, if you like your sodas, drink some water.

853
00:41:22,620 --> 00:41:27,240
If you don't like the taste of just water, then find like maybe some lemon or some sort

854
00:41:27,240 --> 00:41:29,260
of flavoring that's going to be good.

855
00:41:29,260 --> 00:41:35,360
That's natural that will digest into your system to, to help you consume your water,

856
00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:36,680
to do the things.

857
00:41:36,680 --> 00:41:41,400
It's like, you don't have to like throw everything out all at once.

858
00:41:41,400 --> 00:41:47,440
Your body will go into a weird, weird detox, almost like coming from a drug addiction or

859
00:41:47,440 --> 00:41:48,880
heroin or something like that.

860
00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:55,960
If you're not careful, but if you, everything that you take out, replace it with good.

861
00:41:55,960 --> 00:41:58,600
All the bad that comes out, replace it with good.

862
00:41:58,600 --> 00:42:00,840
That's even our walks with Jesus.

863
00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:03,320
Take out the bad, replace it with good.

864
00:42:03,320 --> 00:42:07,640
And then watch your body and watch your mind, your heart, your emotions, everything start

865
00:42:07,640 --> 00:42:10,760
getting better and better and stronger and stronger.

866
00:42:10,760 --> 00:42:11,760
Yeah.

867
00:42:11,760 --> 00:42:20,020
And again, start small, start small, you know, and, and because it is, it's, you know, the,

868
00:42:20,020 --> 00:42:25,920
the original question is how do we support each other in, in physical health in our marriages?

869
00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:28,640
Start small, you know, start small.

870
00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:29,640
Yeah.

871
00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:34,840
Start, start with where you're at and, and what, what does this look like?

872
00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:36,560
You know, what, what are our goals?

873
00:42:36,560 --> 00:42:38,120
You know, have a conversation.

874
00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:43,360
What dear Dina, what are our physical goals for our marriage?

875
00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:44,360
Yeah.

876
00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:45,360
What, what do we want to look like?

877
00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:49,920
What, what does our physical activity level want to look like?

878
00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:50,920
Yeah.

879
00:42:50,920 --> 00:42:55,460
You know, and, and I can guarantee you, I can almost guarantee you with, I can guarantee

880
00:42:55,460 --> 00:43:03,920
you with 99.9% confidence that there is something on the internet, either on the internet or

881
00:43:03,920 --> 00:43:10,120
you know somebody that can help you take steps towards that goal.

882
00:43:10,120 --> 00:43:11,120
Yes.

883
00:43:11,120 --> 00:43:16,040
I mean, I remember years ago, I was trying to, you know, what if I wanted to do this?

884
00:43:16,040 --> 00:43:17,580
What if I wanted to do this?

885
00:43:17,580 --> 00:43:25,880
And I actually found something that said, here's a calendar, this will take you from

886
00:43:25,880 --> 00:43:32,240
the couch to running a 5k in 30 days.

887
00:43:32,240 --> 00:43:33,440
I love that.

888
00:43:33,440 --> 00:43:37,680
And it was, it was little things like, you know, hey, like step one, like day one was

889
00:43:37,680 --> 00:43:39,680
like walk around the block.

890
00:43:39,680 --> 00:43:40,680
Yeah.

891
00:43:40,680 --> 00:43:43,600
You know, can you, can you walk around the block?

892
00:43:43,600 --> 00:43:45,080
Can you jog a block?

893
00:43:45,080 --> 00:43:46,080
Yeah.

894
00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:49,320
And it wasn't like, you know, go out and run a mile, see you when you're done.

895
00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:53,720
You know, it was, it was, you know, hey, can you, can you, can you jog for a block?

896
00:43:53,720 --> 00:43:54,720
Yeah.

897
00:43:54,720 --> 00:43:57,120
You know, can you jog for 100 feet, 200 feet?

898
00:43:57,120 --> 00:43:58,120
Yeah.

899
00:43:58,120 --> 00:43:59,680
You know, start small, start there.

900
00:43:59,680 --> 00:44:00,680
Yeah.

901
00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:05,680
You know, and then, then build, you know, because I've, I've seen it a lot of times.

902
00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:08,960
People are like, oh, I'm going to get healthy, you know, especially in come January, I'm

903
00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:09,960
going to get healthy.

904
00:44:09,960 --> 00:44:11,840
It's my new, you know, new year's resolution.

905
00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:17,160
I'm going to, I'm going to run a half marathon this year and they start day one.

906
00:44:17,160 --> 00:44:21,120
Let's see if I can run five miles and day two, they're hurting.

907
00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:22,120
They are so sore.

908
00:44:22,120 --> 00:44:23,800
And then all of a sudden they can't run.

909
00:44:23,800 --> 00:44:24,800
Yeah.

910
00:44:24,800 --> 00:44:25,800
They're like, nope.

911
00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:26,800
Okay.

912
00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:27,800
Yeah.

913
00:44:27,800 --> 00:44:28,800
Looks like I can't do this.

914
00:44:28,800 --> 00:44:29,800
Thanks.

915
00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:30,800
And then they quit.

916
00:44:30,800 --> 00:44:31,800
Then they quit.

917
00:44:31,800 --> 00:44:33,680
Or I even heard like, so say you do have a setback.

918
00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:34,680
Yeah.

919
00:44:34,680 --> 00:44:38,660
So you do have a day where you're just like, I can't do this or you go on a long journey.

920
00:44:38,660 --> 00:44:39,660
Something happens.

921
00:44:39,660 --> 00:44:40,660
You get sick, stuff like that.

922
00:44:40,660 --> 00:44:41,660
Yeah.

923
00:44:41,660 --> 00:44:42,660
So you get sick and you get back.

924
00:44:42,660 --> 00:44:43,660
Yeah.

925
00:44:43,660 --> 00:44:44,660
Just get back up on it.

926
00:44:44,660 --> 00:44:45,660
Just, just keep going.

927
00:44:45,660 --> 00:44:47,200
Don't stop is the point.

928
00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:48,200
Yeah.

929
00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:53,400
Don't stop because you see when I start having a mental situation happening inside of me,

930
00:44:53,400 --> 00:45:00,040
I'll look at you and I'll say, I haven't quit and I'm not going to, I'm, we're not going

931
00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:01,040
to stop.

932
00:45:01,040 --> 00:45:03,600
We're going to keep going.

933
00:45:03,600 --> 00:45:08,360
And if we get in the gym once in the week, if we get four out of five, whatever, you

934
00:45:08,360 --> 00:45:09,540
know what I mean?

935
00:45:09,540 --> 00:45:11,920
Some days it's going to look really, really good.

936
00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:12,920
Some days it's not.

937
00:45:12,920 --> 00:45:13,920
Yeah.

938
00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:15,680
But the fact is that you're not quitting.

939
00:45:15,680 --> 00:45:17,040
That's right.

940
00:45:17,040 --> 00:45:18,040
Don't stop.

941
00:45:18,040 --> 00:45:19,040
No.

942
00:45:19,040 --> 00:45:20,040
Just don't stop.

943
00:45:20,040 --> 00:45:21,040
Yeah.

944
00:45:21,040 --> 00:45:22,040
So that's it.

945
00:45:22,040 --> 00:45:23,040
I think, yeah.

946
00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:27,000
This life is not meant to be stopped and meant to be sedentary and it's not meant, it's meant

947
00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:28,720
to be lived abundantly.

948
00:45:28,720 --> 00:45:29,720
Yeah.

949
00:45:29,720 --> 00:45:30,720
Yeah.

950
00:45:30,720 --> 00:45:32,000
But yeah.

951
00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:35,220
So that's, that's, I think that's where we're at.

952
00:45:35,220 --> 00:45:39,040
Have a conversation, start small, keep going.

953
00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:40,040
I love that.

954
00:45:40,040 --> 00:45:41,040
I love that.

955
00:45:41,040 --> 00:45:42,040
Yeah.

956
00:45:42,040 --> 00:45:43,040
All right guys.

957
00:45:43,040 --> 00:45:44,040
Have the best week.

958
00:45:44,040 --> 00:46:09,600
Enjoy the journey.
