How do you put up with yourself?

Hey, good morning. Good morning. Swell friends. This is yourself. Truly, Bernard Harmon. Yes, I know. I've been gone for a minute. I have been like really out there. A lot of meditation, not a thing. I've been listening to a lot of you guys on your broadcast, just haven't made any comments because I've been seeking some things from God. And I wanted to say this. I want to ask this question

Oh, I also do journaling, which journaling also helps me to focus and look at myself the way that God sees me. Journaling is really helpful for my healing journey because I write down how I'm feeling and then I can really analyze it, right? I can really look at like, okay, well, why is that? And then I can look back at other times in my life because I've got a whole bunch of journals

Everybody said I was a horrible father in their eyes. But what they didn't realize is that I was the father. I am responsible to raise them. And if she can't stay home and keep going, I'm going to place her somewhere that I know where she is. And she had plenty of time to think about it. She did 30 days. Now, after 30 days, I went to visit her every weekend. When she got out in 30 days, she finished

Not so much apologizing, but saying I'm a male because I have male parts. But it wouldn't matter to me if I was a male or a female. I'm not trying to assert myself. Come on, that's a lot. That's a lot. I've been on swells and women's like, well, I don't need you to protect me, okay, you know what I mean? And I'm like trying to figure out what happened here and am I crazy now?

Find her in the morning while I'm working, six at night till six in the morning, you know what I mean? Take her to the hospital, get her straightened out, then she's gone. Turn around, you know, go back to work. And my dad gets sick. Three months later he passes and then I start speaking up for people on the COVID And then they say, basically he's looking for a reason to let me go. And they let me go

And while he's doing that, he's showing me he's also showing me the parts of me that need to heal. He's also showing me the parts of me that need to be transformed so that I can be more like Him. And so as he's doing that, if what people say don't line up with what God is saying, I let them say what they got to say and I just tell them thank you, but no thank you. And I move on

And to be honest, a romantic relationship right now sounds like a lot because it's still something that I'm afraid of, because I don't really know what I'm looking for yet, and I'm still searching for me, and I still am looking for things that or things or experiences that bring joy into my heart. So that's my response to your question. I would love to continue the conversation, and thank you for asking that question. Thank

So it took me a long time to learn. But when I learned, it's an amazing journey. And my relationship with God is awesome because I spend most of my time with Him. With God, we talk about everything. I share my heart with Him. I keep my circle small. I'm very careful when it comes to people. But one of the things that I've learned most that's very important to me is having your assignment that you feel that God has put in you

Hey, Bernard. This is a great swell. One of the ways that I try to take care of myself is by going to the gym or by going for walks. Those things are more than just about fitness and exercise to me. They're relaxing. They help me to de stress. They give me an opportunity to think, clear my mind. And so I like being active and I mike being outside. And so I try to do outdoor activities. These to help me to distress
