Can I fully let that in?

The people on the YouTube channel are telling me that their lives are changed because they watched a simple video that I made.

Can I like let that break my heart?

And that journey, break my heart open, cry, but break my heart open, that journey in itself is you have to start acknowledging your inherent goodness in that.

You can't be grateful for something that you can't acknowledge.

And the other piece, I think it's from the Jewish tradition, I think, and it says, humility is taking your God-given place in the world.

which I really love because it actually expresses both, right?

Because humility is one of those things where if I say I'm humble, then I'm arrogant.

If I say I'm arrogant, then I'm humble.

So it's like, it's one of these weird things that it's not what you think it is.

There's a great saying that says, it's not thinking less of yourself, it's thinking of yourself less, which points in the general direction.

But I feel like it's also, there's an acknowledgement of,

of who you are with the marriage of the acknowledgement that it was all kind of luck, you know, like it's moving through me.

It's not really about me, but I also have to acknowledge that I'm, I'm here doing this thing.

Yeah.

It's a crazy, that's a mind blower.

Awakening.

Yeah.

So I lived in LA at the time and I would go up to Angel's Crest and then I would like walk on this trail that nobody walked on and then I'd walk off the trail for a couple miles and then I would pretend I was in an acting class where I had to cry.

That's what I did.
