the most important thing I have come to
know in doing the right thing and making
the right choices is understanding all
of you leaving here have the potential
for enormous success there's a price
that comes with that people don't always
like you and they're not always happy
for you and if you surround yourself
with people who are not accustom to your
success they become fearful they become
scared because you are reflecting back
something to them but they don't
recognize now they're not going to say
you know I'm very fearful because you're
reflecting back to me something I don't
recognize they're going to say you know
what they're gonna say they're gonna say
who she thinks she is
who's she thinks she is that only
happens when you are around people who
do not mean and want and aspire to the
best for you people who want the best
for you want you to be your best so my
greatest advice to you is to surround
yourself with people who are going to
fill your cup until your cup runneth
over so when people say you're so full
of yourself you can say yeah I'm so full
my cup runneth over and to know that
once your cup runneth over you cannot
spend your life with your gallon-sized
offerings offering them to pint-sized
people you have got to surround yourself
with gallon-sized people who can hang in
the same company with you so that you're
not offering your gallons to those
little pipes out there who can't hold it
anyway and what I know for sure is that
the biggest choices begin and end with
you your internal big questions who do I
want to be in the world my relationship
to Source Energy to all that is God I'm
not talking about what you believe in
God I'm talking about your experience of
that which is all life which is divine
and universal I'm talking about the big
deal being connected and aligned with
that when you are tuned in and charged
into that whenever you feel empty
you go inside yourself and you connect
to the source and you know that all
things are possible to know that and to
choose to do the right thing in service
and significance I promise you you will
create a vessel of service for yourself
first because you have to honor yourself
first you have to give to yourself first
otherwise you have nothing to give away
you will create a vessel for yourself
for your family your community and the
world will not only lead you to a
blessed life I stand as a witness my
life is so blessed I can't even take it
in sometimes it will leave you not just
to a gifted life and a rewarding life
that fills you up but a sweet life
that's what you want
you want the sweetness you want it to be
so sweet so that even when the storms
come and they will you'll know this too
shall pass this too shall pass the storm
is passing over and you shall not be
moved because you know who you are when
you can do that
grace will follow you grace and glory
and when they see you coming it oughta
make them proud
