What are you going to do for you today?

And that's a strange statement considering living a world that is based on service. Right. We're all serving someone. We're all working somewhere. And even for those of us who are entrepreneurs, we have clients and in certain points in our relationship, you are working to serve that client. But I just believe that you should not wake up every day, acknowledge this great gift called life and not do something in service for yourself

Self Development is a collection of small things.

And I would get upset because I was expecting those people to pour back into me in which as a PISCES and an INFJ, I had to establish boundaries. This is one of the most important things for me to have relationships and to exist with others and share space with other is to establish healthy boundaries. But I have to be intentional and aware of this

Or I don't know if you experience this as a PISCES thing, but this magical thing where we think people just automatically know what we need from them, which is completely destructive. And I'm working on it. So I'm like, hey, you know what? Do what you want to do only and people will do the same, and it's okay. Like I have to literally say it to myself because no still is no. And then I even did this thing

How much of us do we bring to a space?

Personally speaking, I've experienced severe abandonment in my life, so abandonment has been something that I've been constantly still working on, but it still hurts, and it's still traumatic for me, this fear of being left or thrown away or forgotten or dismissed, even in my brilliance, even in my light, I still have this as a fear if I'm going to be really transparent in this moment, that's one of my biggest fears, honestly

And I believe all truth is beauty or has a beauty to it. So I appreciate you saying that, especially about abandonment. I don't really know. I've never thought about abandonment deeply, but I feel like I have a reservation that I operate with, and I think I'm more aware of it now, and sometimes it comes on and it prevents, I guess, deep connections with folks or I'm connected

So I'm listening to this wonderful conversation between you two. And it had me reflecting on what I do for myself. And so what I decided to do here at 1026 at night, under the night sky is to bring out this wonderful gift that was given to me by some students at NIT. Of course you can. But you can't smell this stuff. That sounds so good. I know. All right. And this wonderful pipe and decided to smoke it

Takin it down.

And he always gets me the things I like, which are admittedly some kind of proper, like bourbon and fruit. And I just sit out there and I just sip and I look at the stars and the sky is super clear. And it's like, very peaceful. And with the pipe, I hear you other same thing with the smoke stuff like he smokes a pipe to my uncle. And a lot of people do. Apparently now it's like a thing. And I think about that
