(00:00:04): Hello Everybody, Hey Guys - Thank You So Much for Taking the Time out to Join Me Today for Our Fireside Chat (00:00:04): Hello everybody, Hey guys - Thank you so much for taking the time out to join me today for our fireside chat. So first things first, just to make sure sure. We are all on the same page. And everyone can hear me. Can I get a quick hello in the chat. Can I get a quick hello in the chat everyone. Hello? Hello, hello, hello. Awesome. I see Latrina is here. She never misses anything, Caitlin's here. Caitlin always makes the time. Thank you so much Caitlin. I know you have a lot going on. Good. Kendrick's on here. Awesome. He's cycle 11. Awesome. Thank you guys so much for popping in. Thank you guys for waiting. I wanted to give everyone a minute to be able to see my post. We have a lot to chat about today. Well one topic, but we need to dive deep and get very serious about it. So I'm so glad you guys are all making it. Thank you everyone for popping on, for giving me this time. (00:00:53): I know that Saturday is universal peak friend time. You know what I mean? Like, this is peak friend time. And not only is it a reserved on the calendar, but there's also so much going on in this world. So for me to come to you in the middle of your Saturday morning I, it's not lost on me and I appreciate you guys taking out the time. I promise you I will use this time well because it's necessary. So for those of you guys celebrating Passover, like ms Rosenfeld, our good friend here, I thank you so much. Illa for joining us in from Jerusalem next year. We'll all be in Jerusalem, right? I'm so happy Passover to all of you guys. And for those of you guys, we're getting ready for Easter morning. There's a reason why we're having this chat now because you know, for those of you guys who are of the, you know, Christian faith, you understand that tomorrow is a very big deal. (00:01:48): And as we are going into this new, right and we are refreshing ourselves and resurrecting and starting new. Yeah. I, I wanted to, I've addressed the old and talk about change and talk about transition and just share some news and all that. Good. So I'm very excited. I love you guys. And, I want you to know that this is a uplifting discussion, meaning it's all positive as we always try to be, but I also want to let you know it is a serious conversation. So I say all this because you know, I just, I was on TV but real with you guys. So first things first, how are you on a scale of one to five, five being I'm having a whole nightmare and one being like, you know, everything is totally fine. On a scale of one to five, let me know how you guys are doing. (00:02:43): Perfect. Good. Lots of threes in the middle, which is kind of in the middle fluctuating. Okay, good, good, good, good, good, good, good. I care about you guys. So, so that's really, really good to hear that everyone's at least running in the middle. I think that this is the type season right where right in the middle is a thing, you know thanks for asking. Michelle, how am I? I am a 3.5 maybe and I would honestly like to let you know that the 3.5 is because I needed to have this conversation. Have you guys ever felt like something is on your heart to say, but you're not sure how to say it but you know, it needs to be said. And that's where I've been for the past week. If you guys noticed for the past three days, I haven't really gone live. I haven't really posted much on social or anything like that and it's because I have been in a reflective place. (00:03:39): I care about you guys so much and and I have been really reflecting on how to have this conversation with you and I have the team pull it together because we knew it needed to be said and and so that's what we're doing right now. If this is not a breakup and I, my health is fine. I know there are a lot of moms on here, so I'd, everybody's helps with finding the household. So I was like, let me just say this cause I was like, I know where this is sounding like it's going, let me just mom, all of you guys real quick. Everybody is fine health wise, everything is fine. Life-Wise all that stuff. But I did want to pull you guys together because I, I want to have a grownup conversation and there's things being said and I'm not ready to say them publicly yet until I, to the masses until I figure out how that conversation will go. (00:04:29): But I have to say it to you guys first because that's part of, and this is important, I think this is a great time to just to explain kind of where we are. So I'm just going to jump right in. So and if any of you guys have any rich friends that are not here, text them, you know, and ask them to join in because we don't do these normally. So this is important. So I believe in covenants, and I know that word sounds really kind of scary and churchy and things like that. And it's not that covenant is a word that just basically means that you are in an agreement with someone that is more important to you than something that's even contractual. Does that make sense to you guys? Like it's more important than a something that's just on paper and it's not something you extend to everyone. It's not something that you take lightly and it is something that is more important than a M. (00:05:26): It's more than just business. And whenever I think of 'em and it's just like, so understand that you don't have to be a Christian to have a covenant relationship with someone, it is. And that is, I want you guys to understand that that's how I've always looked at my relationship with my, my students. And the reason why is sure there's paperwork, there's money exchange, there's all of that. But all of those things are elements, commitment to the covenant, right? And and the same thing applies like with a, with a marriage, right? Like with a marriage. Sure. You have the wedding, you have all those things. Yeah. But let's just be honest, okay. Marriage is not just the agreement you to sort of cohabitate, right? For some people you can tell, when it's just a piece of paper, you know? I think that in our society, marriage has become very watered down and casual, you know, and if you have a covenant marriage, you recognize that there is something there. (00:06:28): It's why when people are like, Oh yeah, we just got that. We've been together for 10 years, but we just got the paper and made it official. It means something when it is a covenant relationship, right? It's more, it's, it does change. It's not just like, Oh, we were already living together, but this just kind of made it official. No, no, no, no, no. When you have committed before your friends, your family and God, it should change. It should change and it should be different. It should not be the same. And and that means that the way you approach each other and the way that you guys approach problems together and the way that you guys approach the decision to become parents. And the, the way that you guys approached change in your life is all different. And so because of that, it also means that you just take it very seriously. (00:07:20): And, and I say this to you guys because I want you to know and I just want everyone to calm down on nerves. Everything you guys know, I always have some positive, right? This is not a negative thing. I am not sick. I am not about to cut you loose. It's none of that stuff. So you have bring it down, bring it down. But it is a serious conversation, which is why you're feeling what you're feeling now because I am, I'm a Puffin, right? Allie, she talks about this all the time and the other day she came to me just to address the feeling in the room right now. She came to me and she said, mom, sometimes I feel like you guys don't like me when I do something wrong. (00:07:59): And I said to her, well we do role playing a lot. And I said to her, I'll just to help her communicate cause she's little and she doesn't have all the words.

    Torah Study – Instructor, Ron Parashas Vayechi Genesis 47:28 – 50:26 Haftaras Vayechi – 1 Kings 2:1–12 Review: Jacob and his household have arrived in Egypt. Joseph has provided for them and they have prospered. They have lands and the family is growing. The famine has passed. Chapter 47 28 – 31 After Israel has been in Egypt for about 17 years and at the age of 147, Jacob senses that his time is about to come to leave this world. Jacob is aware of the promises that were made to his fathers. He knows that his family will eventually go back to the land of Canaan. He asked Joseph to make sure he was taken back to Canaan and buried. Joseph agreed and swore to him that he would personally get it done. With Joseph’s pledge to bury his father in the land of Canaan, Jacob bow’s to Joseph from his bed, thus fulfilling the dream that Joseph had as a young man. Now even the sun and moon did bow to him, not just the eleven stars. Just as this prophetic dream came to pass about Joseph, there is another prophetic word about Yeshua that will come to pass. Lets look at it. Romans 14 6 He who observes a day as special does so to honor the Lord. Also he who eats anything, eats to honor the Lord, since he gives thanks to God; likewise the abstainer abstains to honor the Lord, and he too gives thanks to God. 7 For none of us lives only in relation to himself, and none of us dies only in relation to himself; 8 for if we live, we live in relation to the Lord; and if we die, we die in relation to the Lord.

  • ALL MY SONS a Play in Three Acts by Arthur Miller Characters: Joe Keller
    ALL MY SONS a play in three acts by Arthur Miller Characters: Joe Keller (Keller) Kate Keller (Mother) Chris Keller Ann Deever George Deever Dr. Jim Bayliss (Jim) Sue Bayliss Frank Lubey Lydia Lubey Bert Act One The back yard of the Keller home in the outskirts of an American town. August of our era. The stage is hedged on right and left by tall, closely planted poplars which lend the yard a secluded atmosphere. Upstage is filled with the back of the house and its open, unroofed porch which extends into the yard some six feet. The house is two stories high and has seven rooms. It would have cost perhaps fifteen thousand in the early twenties when it was built. Now it is nicely painted, looks tight and comfortable, and the yard is green with sod, here and there plants whose season is gone. At the right, beside the house, the entrance of the driveway can be seen, but the poplars cut off view of its continuation downstage. In the left corner, downstage, stands the four‐foot‐high stump of a slender apple tree whose upper trunk and branches lie toppled beside it, fruit still clinging to its branches. Downstage right is a small, trellised arbor, shaped like a sea shell, with a decorative bulb hanging from its forward‐curving roof. Carden chairs and a table are scattered about. A garbage pail on the ground next to the porch steps, a wire leaf‐burner near it. On the rise: It is early Sunday morning. Joe Keller is sitting in the sun reading the want ads of the Sunday paper, the other sections of which lie neatly on the ground beside him.

  • UNCLE WICK Written by Gabe Delahaye
    UNCLE WICK Written by Gabe Delahaye EXT. DUBAI - NIGHT The glittering skyscrapers of oil rich Dubai loom over the Arabian sea. We pass through them and down the coast... ...to a PALATIAL ESTATE: luscious green gardens in the middle of the desert, an olympic-sized swimming pool, ARMED GUARDS lining the roof and patrolling the perimeter... We push into... INT. LIBRARY - PALATIAL ESTATE - DUBAI - CONTINUOUS House music thuds in the background. There is a party happening at the house, but this BRASS AND LEATHER LIBRARY is where serious business happens. ANGLE ON: an IMPERIOUS CRIME LORD sipping tea at the head of a massive antique table, surrounded by his HENCHMEN. This is HAMZA (60s) head of “The Nizam,” a league of assassins. HAMZA We’re not having this discussion again. The peace with Skalnikoff and The Colony has been to everyone’s financial benefit. They take the lion’s share of western assignments, but the Nizam controls the east, and with it-- TARIK This isn’t peace. This is Skalnikoff waiting for our guard to drop, so he can strike. If you don’t come for him, he’ll come for you, father. ANGLE ON: TARIK (30s) at the opposite end of the table. He has the bearing of an ungrateful prince: controlled by his father and desperate to take his place. HAMZA I admire your ambition, my son, but you still have much to learn. In the background, the CLUB MUSIC cuts out and we hear SCREAMS. The men at the table perk up, on high alert. A HENCHMAN peaks out the window, shakes his head to signal: the roof is empty.

  • ENDER's GAME by Orson Scott Card Chapter 1 -- Third
    ENDER'S GAME by Orson Scott Card Chapter 1 -- Third "I've watched through his eyes, I've listened through his ears, and tell you he's the one. Or at least as close as we're going to get." "That's what you said about the brother." "The brother tested out impossible. For other reasons. Nothing to do with his ability." "Same with the sister. And there are doubts about him. He's too malleable. Too willing to submerge himself in someone else's will." "Not if the other person is his enemy." "So what do we do? Surround him with enemies all the time?" "If we have to." "I thought you said you liked this kid." "If the buggers get him, they'll make me look like his favorite uncle." "All right. We're saving the world, after all. Take him." *** The monitor lady smiled very nicely and tousled his hair and said, "Andrew, I suppose by now you're just absolutely sick of having that horrid monitor. Well, I have good news for you. That monitor is going to come out today. We're going to just take it right out, and it won't hurt a bit." Ender nodded. It was a lie, of course, that it wouldn't hurt a bit. But since adults always said it when it was going to hurt, he could count on that statement as an accurate prediction of the future. Sometimes lies were more dependable than the truth. "So if you'll just come over here, Andrew, just sit right up here on the examining table.

  • The Complete Stories
    The Complete Stories by Franz Kafka a.b.e-book v3.0 / Notes at the end Back Cover : "An important book, valuable in itself and absolutely fascinating. The stories are dreamlike, allegorical, symbolic, parabolic, grotesque, ritualistic, nasty, lucent, extremely personal, ghoulishly detached, exquisitely comic. numinous and prophetic." -- New York Times "The Complete Stories is an encyclopedia of our insecurities and our brave attempts to oppose them." -- Anatole Broyard Franz Kafka wrote continuously and furiously throughout his short and intensely lived life, but only allowed a fraction of his work to be published during his lifetime. Shortly before his death at the age of forty, he instructed Max Brod, his friend and literary executor, to burn all his remaining works of fiction. Fortunately, Brod disobeyed. Page 1 The Complete Stories brings together all of Kafka's stories, from the classic tales such as "The Metamorphosis," "In the Penal Colony" and "The Hunger Artist" to less-known, shorter pieces and fragments Brod released after Kafka's death; with the exception of his three novels, the whole of Kafka's narrative work is included in this volume. The remarkable depth and breadth of his brilliant and probing imagination become even more evident when these stories are seen as a whole. This edition also features a fascinating introduction by John Updike, a chronology of Kafka's life, and a selected bibliography of critical writings about Kafka.
