Bless up everybody. And I know I mind. And today, in hindsight, we're feeling good. It's a beautiful day, isn't it? Yes, it is. Yes, it is. Because there's always a beauty within the day. Right? And we just have to be a great explorer. Right? Great explorers of what? Great explorers of meaning, of beauty and of joy. You understand? It's all around us. It's a perspective shift. And that's what this experience is about. You know, we dive deeper into ourselves so we can cultivate and craft the tools so we can go into the world and see beauty and see meaning all around us. Because what happens, that's how we create a life that we love. And while we are living it, while we are going through that journey, we are having so much gratitude and love for it. Yeah. You know, we're only going to be here for so many years. You know, human beings, our time is limited. We know that. So why we might as well live a beautiful life. That's what I'm dedicated to. Beauty. I like beautiful things. I like beautiful sounds. I like to see imperfections as beauty as well. This is something that we're all able to do. We're able to alchemize our experiences. We're able to go inside our imagination and recognize how powerful we are. Because you are powerful. You know that, right? It doesn't matter how the last three, six or nine months have been for you, if they have been negative, if you have been operating in your lowest self, actually right now, today, you can make that shift. You can make that shift through a commitment, through dedication, and through recognizing you are beautiful even in your imperfections, even in your downfall. Why? Because those experiences give us the contrast. Those experiences give our story the edge that it needs. You understand, man, the last few years, I went through some of the darkest things I've ever had to experience in my life. And now I stepped into a whole new life. I live in Africa now. I live in Africa now. Kenya, Nairobi, new space, new home. I had these ideas a long time ago, 15, 17 years ago, especially when I got into Rastafari, you understand? I still identify as a Rasta in the way I live my life. And I remember the call that, hey, one day, you know, Rastas, we shall go back to Africa. Seems crazy, you understand, like, why I got no connection with Africa. I got no family that lives in Africa. How's that going to happen? I don't know. I don't know. You see, we don't know how. We don't have to have the information of how something is going to turn out. That's not important, right? You don't have to know how a seed will blossom to water it. No. Guess what? You water it every single day with your effort, with your actions, and then you give a light, right? That's your faith, that's your belief. And over time, as you go through seasons, that seed starts to sprout and it starts to make a little bit more sense. But it's not the full picture yet, but it's beautiful. Because every step of the journey is beautiful. You, five years ago, is beautiful. You, six months ago, is beautiful. You right now is beautiful. And who you are becoming is so beautiful. So now that I'm here in Africa, I'm like, boom. Another manifestation has come to life. It's beautiful. And what is to come, I don't know. We are watering a new seed, and that is beautiful. I want you every day to just start saying that is beautiful things about your life. When you get up in the morning and you go for your daily walk, no, Even though you've seen this daily walk so many times in your life before, I want you to see something different and be like, wow, that is beautiful. Or reappreciate something that is so consistent in your life that you take for granted. Some of us have beautiful friends. People all around us, they've been there forever, and we forget how beautiful they are, how beautiful that friendship is for 10 years, 15 years, 20 years. It's a skill, you know? Love is a skill as well. It's easy to fall out of love with something. There are singers who used to love singing every single day, and then they don't love it no more. There are creators who used to love and Just, you know, beg to create, Run home after their nine to five just to create, but yet they don't love it no more. Love is a practice, something that we do every single day, right? How much do you practice love in your life? How much do you practice bringing beauty into your day? Or do you rely on life to bring it to you? Do you rely on the wind to sweep you off your feet? Right. Or do you create your own wind? Do you recognize your own power, your own strength? Do you pour back into your life and bring meaning into it and recalibrate your perspective, recalibrate how you see things? Mmm. You know, even a romantic relationship, we all know how quickly those can become boring. What do you have to do? You have to give a life. You have to give it energy. You gotta flirt a little bit more. A. Like it's the first time you just seen your partner. Oh, my God, look at you. It takes effort, right? How much do you flirt with your own life? If we can appreciate the moment, the present moment, what do you think happens next? Life is like, yo, send them more. Send them more alignment. They love life, so let's love them back. Let's make every dream and possibility that they see in their mind a reality. Let's support them because they see beauty wherever they go, which means they will create more beautiful and they will be a part of the expansion of this planet, bringing more meaning and beauty to this world, right? But if all you see is fear, all you do is feel fear. All you do is simmer and brew and your own anxieties and your own negativities, and you don't see the light even within yourself. And you don't even try to bring it out into this world and lead with love so you can leave with love and bring kindness to everybody else. What do you think is going to happen? You're going to create a cage around yourself? Life closes off. So we are in a symbiotic relationship with life. And the way to open up life is to know that life is beautiful. The whole spectrum, the whole human experience is beautiful. That's the belief you have to have. But guess what? You have to practice belief. You have to practice belief, even a belief in God. That takes practice, that takes effort, right? Because there's so many questions. It's very easy to fall out of faith. It's very easy to fall out of love. It's very easy to stop seeing a life that is worth living when we get lazy, when we get passive. But every single one of us, we can completely Transform our life right now by recognizing that, yes, it is beautiful. Yeah. And it's going to become more beautiful. This is why I'm big into self talk. Self talk. Speaking to ourselves in a certain way that promotes life, that promotes beauty, that promotes strength. You know, I have a guided experience link in the description. This is a meditative, guided self talk journey that you know will bring you through your own mind and spirit to remind you of your power, bring clarity and just reignite you for the day. It's a timeless piece. You can listen to it every single day. You can take a break for three months, come back and it's going to sound brand new again. This is a tool to support you in your expansion. A digital experience. And it's there for you because I want all of us to create a beautiful life. The life that we know that we deserve. But we had to create it. We had to see it to achieve it. It. And every single day it is a practice. A practice in recognizing the beauty within ourselves and all around ourselves. Right? So let's be great explorers. Great explorers every single day. Of finding beauty, of creating beauty, of finding meaning, of creating meaning. Because what happens, our life simply becomes more meaningful and beautiful. And who doesn't want a more meaningful and beautiful life? And I don't know, in hindsight, everything gonna be more than alright. I'm out here in Nairobi, Africa. This is my new base. And let's go on a new journey. Y'. All cheer.
