Plus I'm on Hello stations on theweekends to see which ones and what
times on everything. I'm at LACCarrystal Little Sas and we have a lot

(00:50):
to get to. There are someinteresting things that happened this past week in
ap a cool tour, and ofcourse in my life as well. So
first we're gonna start off with sharingthe cheese. Man, Yo, have
you seen this? Did she yet? Oh my god, we can't believe
it. We're sharing the cheese man, We're sharing the cheese man. Oh

(01:15):
my god. Tho, there isso much to get to, and first
we're getting to Arina Grande's new album, Eternal Sunshine that dropped on Friday.
Do you care? Do you care? Because I kind of care and I
am not. I'm not gonna sayI'm a huge Ariana Grande stand like her
album thank You Next it did.It did a lot to me, and

(01:37):
then the album after that not somuch. I didn't really care much.
The album was before that didn't reallycare too much. But with this album,
I'm like, wait, there isjust too much Ariana Grande and SpongeBob
Bloor and the Divercelore that we needto be caring, all right. And
I also was wondering if the youthcares, if the little kiddies care.

(01:59):
I was my boyfriend's kid cared andthe answer was no, but maybe depending
on your kids, So it justit really depends. But I don't know
about the kids so much. Iwanted to see what she was going to
be saying about her divorce and SpongeBob. Now. The morning that I listened
to it Friday morning. That's thefirst thing that I did off the rip.

(02:20):
I was a fan. I wasa fan, and it just really
the thing about music is I liketo go in with absolutely no expectations.
I don't want to be like,it's gonna be this, and I hope
that she sounds like this, andI hope that she gives me this.
I go with no expectations, andI'm talking to my bestie hear at work
and my co host for the NewHitlist here at Ze one hundred every weeknight,

(02:40):
Shelley Rome, and she was like, I wanted this pop moment.
I hoped it was gonna be likea big pop record like her single was.
If you haven't heard her single It'sCold, yes, and yeah that
was a huge pop record. Butno, that's the most pop and upbeat
and up tempo song on the wholealbum. So when I gave it a

(03:02):
first run through listen, I immediatelytexted Zaddy, my boyfriend, and I
just gave him a rundown of whatI thought. And here's what I said.
I said, in totality, I'ma fan of the overall sound and
I'm impressed with the tone of hervoice, not like the sound of the
tone, but it's a mature toneand it's self aware and it's even though

(03:25):
yes and was the first single andshe was kind of like, yes and
I Took Your Man and what aboutit? That was That's kind of like
a little immature take on it inmy opinion, But the whole album did
not have that tone at all.That was the only I think, like
real sassy, sassy song on it. So I was impressed with her being

(03:47):
mature and open about what she's goingthrough and has been going through. I
liked the tone of her voice.Okay, number two. I think it
was a soft synth driven pop albumwith R and B lining. It was
a soft pop album. It wasn'ta hard pop album. It was a
soft pop album, but it doeshave R and B roots. She explained

(04:09):
a lot of her heartbreak with divorceto her ex husband Dalton Gomez. She
sprinkles SpongeBob in there, but heis not the main character. It's not
about him. It's not even aboutDalton really, it's about her and her
experience navigating those relationships, which Ireally appreciated. I thought that she was

(04:31):
gonna have more SpongeBob stuff in there. I thought that she was gonna give
even more and divulge into that.But I think that the album is a
good story because it's the first halfis pretty much heartbreak, heartbreak, heartbreak,
heartbreak, and then you kind ofstart seeing glimmers of liking someone else.
And then even a song called Imperfectfor You. That one stood out

(04:56):
to me a really cute love song, and the one that I off the
bat first listen loved the most,we Can't Be Friends. I mean that
song. As soon as I heardit, I'm like, wait, I
am obsessed. I love this song, and of course I'm gonna always predict
a banger. That is the songthat's just like leading on TikTok. I

(05:19):
mean, you cannot scroll through TikTokwithout hearing that song. So that's the
song that a lot of people alsogravitated towards two. Now, when I
was talking this isn't the text,This isn't the text, I say,
my favorite song on the first runis we Can't Be Friends. I told
that to Zaddi, And the funthing is that whenever albums pop out,
I always tell him I'm like,this is my favorite song, and that

(05:39):
song ends up being like the nextleading single or the one that everyone loves
the most, and this is I'mlike five or five at this point,
He's like, Babe, you alwayspredict, like what song is gonna be
that one on the album that everyoneloves and that starts getting crazy spins.
For example, Sizza, when Iheard her last album for Me Snooze,

(06:00):
I was like, Babe, Ilove Snooze. I'm hearing it on repeat.
I absolutely love this song, andthen boom, it became the next
single. Nick im Naj's lack lastalbum FTCU, I'm like, have to
club up tof to club up.That one now obviously is on so many
radio stations, and not only that, it's like a huge TikTok pop and
are in a grande that one wecan't be friends leading the TikTok charts.

(06:21):
So yeah, I'm kind of likea music guru, not like I've been
just head an entire body first divulgedinto music in the radio world for the
past ten years. So it justit seems like my taste in music and
my ability to pinpoint a hit isspun on so round and plots for me.

(06:46):
For that, I'm obviously very veryhumble about that. But no,
for real, I enjoyed the album. As I mentioned, Shelley Rome,
she wanted a more pop the album, it's a solid tone like it doesn't
really go up and down too crazyagain. The only one really goes kind
of off the bat is yes,and everything else is just kind of calm,
cool and collected. For me andwhere I am in my life right
now, I really wanted and neededthat. I just kind of don't want

(07:11):
something that's too crazy all over theplace. I wanted something that's more calm.
It's very like ethereal sounding synth drivenwith the R and B background.
I liked it a lot. It'ssomething that I could spin over and over
again. And the more that Ilisten, the more that I'm liking it.
A lot of the songs. Oneof Shelley's complaints worth that a lot

(07:33):
of the songs do sound similar,kind of the same. I could see
that. I could definitely see that. But at the end of the day,
I really liked it. Did youlisten? Did you care? Do
you listen to full albums? Ifeel like for me and in my job,
I definitely want to and I tryto, but if I don't feel
called to, I won't. Ijust won't, Or I'll just skim listen

(07:55):
where I'll listen to the first fewbeats, skim through to the pre chorus,
listen to the chorus, see whatthe end verse sounds like, and
just like really quickly go through albums. But this one I was like,
you know, I have time thismorning, let me listen to a while
I'm getting ready. And I enjoyedit. So you let me know what
you think, your thoughts at yourreview on our indeground Day's Eternal Sunshine.
The music video for We Can't BeFriends is like trending, like crazy.

(08:20):
People are really liking it, pickingit apart. And I'm really proud of
this album for her. She's donejust very few but long interviews about it,
and one of the critiques that sheknew was gonna happen was that the
album was too short. It wasa short album, thirteen fourteen tracks.
That's okay with me. We haveso much going on in our lives day
nobody got time to sit down andlisten to twenty two tracks unless you're a

(08:43):
swiftie. So yeah, I wantto hear what you think about that.
Obviously, I have a lot ofopinions, and yeah, if you're into
something kind of calm, cool,collected, introspective, mature, it's mature.
And the fact that I'm happy withthe voice and the tone, that's
what I was. It didn't seemtoo toxic for me. Like that was

(09:03):
a lot of criticisms for Drake's albumfor All the Dogs is that it was
very toxic and immature. But again, you're talking about an album that's called
for All the Dogs and that's justkind of what that was. And that's
okay. If Drake wants to makean album like that, maybe he'll down
the road make an album about beingmature. But isn't he allegedly dating Big

(09:24):
Lotto's little sister twenty one year old? So that's still what he's on.
No problem with that. I mean, you're an adult at twenty one,
but Drake's like thirty what six orsomething thirty four, so she's an adult.
They're adults. I don't see anythingwrong with that. There's a lot
of twenty year olds. I wantto date Drake right now, and if
he still wants to be making musicabout that, then he will be doing

(09:46):
that. And if you don't,then you're gonna do something like our Indi
Grande. So that is my takeon the new album. Now, let's
talk about the Oscars, which werethis past weekend, which is pretty big
deal too. Again, especially withmy job, obviously we're gonna be recapping
things and it's huge in pop culture. The Oscars were really big this year
because we had Barbie Heimer the BarbieMovie against Oppenheimer and Oppenheimer they took a

(10:13):
whole bunch of awards home. Theywon seven the night Barbie it was.
The Oscars were criticized because Barbie didn'tget a lot of nominations. The only
like big nominations that they got werelike Song of Records, Cinematic Record of
the Year, and then Supporting ActorRyan Gosling. But the ladies didn't really
get any nominations, which is reallyironic because that's what the movie is about

(10:35):
about how women aren't enough, right, even though kenn is singing that he's
not enough and he's just ken No. The movie was a commentary on women
and men in the world, andit's just interesting that that movie ended up
not getting a lot of praise fromthe movie Academy. I personally don't care

(11:01):
too too much about award shows.I don't have cable, regular cable,
so I'm don't really have a placeto watch it. If I want to
go to a bar, to afriend's house. If I really really want
to watch something like I will.The only thing that I actually really care
about is like the VMAs for me, the Grammys kind of, but those
for me aren't even really that thatfun. When I was little, I

(11:24):
would never miss the Kids' Choice Awardslike Nickelodeon, like that was like the
number one thing for me, andthen getting older, it was the vms
were like the cool and awesome thing. And for movies, you know,
I did see Barbie, I didsee Oppenheimer. I loved Oppenheimer. Not
gonna love this is not a popularopinion, even though I am a Barbie
girl, like I love Barbie,like the aesthetics of it all. I've

(11:46):
been doing barbiek Corp. Before Barbiewas a thing. But I just thought
the movie was like a little cheesyfor me, and the plot like just
didn't really do it one hundred percentfor me. And here I am like
talking about the commentary with that movieand Oppenheimer and women in society, but

(12:07):
that's just that's okay, like Idon't have to have the same opinion as
everyone else. And the Oscars,Yeah, I just didn't really care too
too much. But of course Iwatched all the recaps. I thought that
the Ryan Gosling number because he performedthere, was cool, it was fun,
it was great. I like howhe started behind Margot Robbie and I

(12:28):
thought that was really funny. RyanGossling, He's the man, so I
loved seeing him do that. Bigcongratulations. Billie Eilish took home the awards
for those movies and her songs WhatWas I Made For? Which is a
very slow song. It is avery introspective into world song. Wet am
I? Where am I? Whatam I doing? Does this even matter?
Does this even makes sense? Ithink it's a very slow record to

(12:50):
be playing on the radio, LikeI literally fall asleep almost every single time
that we played on the radio.But she's opened up about how it really
hard to deliver that song because it'slike a whisper tone instead of like a
hard ballad and the artistry alone.Congratulations, it paid off because they got
awards for that the wards. Ittook home for Barbie John Cena getting on

(13:13):
stage like pretty much naked wearing afa like a man thong. The situation.
I thought that was funny and cuteand clever. He's a funny guy.
I like John Cena. He's promotinga movie right now as well,
with Zach Afron. Vanessa Hudgens madeher baby bump debut on the Red Cart
bigg gradulations to her. That's justcrazy. I mean, that's making me
feel thirty. That is what's makingme feel thirty is that Vanessa Hudgens is

(13:37):
bruined a baby in there. Congrata. Babies are just blessings, So congress
to her. And Emma Stone gother second award for Best Actress. I'm
not like the biggest Emma Stone moviefan, Like I didn't watch Dalala Land,
I didn't watch the one that shewon that award for. But she's
cute, like she's unproblematic, likeI have no problems with her, Like

(14:00):
not like the biggest fan of hers. Let me see what else did I
miss? Yeah, Jimmy Kimmel.He hosted for like the third or fourth
time hosting the Oscars. People aregetting a little bored of him, but
he's a safe bet. He isobviously a night host and hosts so many
other things. So he's yeah,he's fine, he's unproblematic to me.

(14:20):
This is what shook me is atnumber one of the box office this past
weekend was Kung Fu Panda two orfour, Kung Fu Panta four it even
did better than Doune, but KungFu Panda four it did open in theaters,
but still like, that's that's sofunny. I mean, Jack black,
Jack Black deserves all the flowers forreal. So yeah, those were

(14:43):
I think the biggest standout moments fromthe Oscars. Did you watch do you
care where you shook at anything?Yeah? I think it was again.
I think the Barbie and Oppenheimer thingin definitely Ryan Gosling were like the biggest
conversation starters. Mica Robbie, she'sjust a class act. She's a class

(15:09):
acting. She's only thirty three,her thirty four, she's only thirty three.
Can you believe that she's just abouse? And America Freira doing it
for us latinas the dang She lookssnatched too in her pink dress, her
pink versache dress. Oh yeah,she looked great. So that was the
Oscars. I told you I'm givingyou updates on Kate Middleton because I'm I'm

(15:30):
now too invested in this all right. She, as I mentioned last week,
has been going through what her teamis saying, abdominal surgery since Christmas.
Pretty much is the last time wesaw her. And then we saw
her last week. On March fourth, she was spotted in a car for
the first time. It was avery blurry photo because I'm guessing that a

(15:54):
paparazzi had a very long telescope cameraand got a pick of her looking totally
normal. Some people assume that shegot her mole removed, but no,
she's fine. And then this weekend, it was Mother's Day in the UK,
she posted this photo her in themiddle sitting down with her three kids
around her, smiling, and herkids are so freakin cute. Like I

(16:15):
think that family's just adorable. Butthe funny thing about the photo is that
there were so many photoshop feels,Like the sweater pattern on the kid was
clearly like redone somehow the little girl'shair was photoshopped somehow too, because like
the pattern just wasn't matching the littlegirl's arm for a reason, Like the
sweater is like doubled up and thenlike a race, and you can see

(16:37):
the outline of it. Her zipperon her quarterneck sweater just kind of disappears.
There's like a line there. Now, these are very minor fooks,
Like if you're just looking at thephoto, looks completely normal. But if
you start zooming in and because it'sa high deft photo, you can tell
that there is some type of photoshopdone here. Now, she apologized,

(17:00):
bro, She apologized for the photoshop, and even the photo agency refused to
publish the image because they deemed itquote manipulated. There was just so many
layers to this one photo. She, like I said, put out an
apology saying, like any amateur photographers, I did some photoshop and I'm sorry

(17:25):
if that caused any questions, andi just want to wish everybody a happy
Mother's Day. And that's literally whatshe said. That's literally all she said.
And so then the agencies like theAssociated Press, they had to put
out a quote mandatory kill notice becausethey're saying that the photo is not authentic

(17:48):
due to an editorial issue, Thisphoto by Prince William has been withdrawn and
may no longer be used in anymanner please immediately remove and stop using it.
Everyone was just like, oh my, there's so much going on with
this, Like why sis, Likeyou know that everyone's been waiting for something
for you, this is your debutafter your dominal surgery, and then it's

(18:10):
just gonna be photoshopped. Now,what possibly could she be photoshopping? What
I'm thinking is that maybe maybe likethere was like an unflattering angle from her,
Maybe she looked a little whiter,so she wanted to use the daughter's
skirt to kind of cover that up. Or maybe her fingers were placed a

(18:32):
little kind of creepily, so shekind of like moved a little pinky up,
which made the daughter's wrist look alittle weird there. Maybe she had
her little sweater like that was wrinkled, or she had a necklace on and
like the little backtag of the necklacewas there, so she wanted to like
kind of just erase that part.Little minor things is what we're getting now.
Obviously, there's conspiracy theories now sayingthat she is a clone, and

(18:52):
she used a photo, an oldphoto from an old Vogue cover to the
photoshop this, so everyone's very confused. There could be a lot of minor
things that you can photoshop with photos, trust me, Like it could be
a whole bunch of little Like asweater is a little wrinkled, so she
wants to photoshop that part out andcrop it with a different part, so
it could be different. Maybe there'sa stain somewhere. Little minor things right

(19:15):
that for us maybe aren't a bigdeal. But for you, you're putting
your first photo in months, youkind of do want it to look a
one and then you just kind ofbutcher it with photoshop. Not sure why
she doesn't have a photoshop team todo these things for her, But at
the end of the day, wejust want to know we're now we're getting
more confused, and now more rumorsand conspiracy theories are coming out, and

(19:38):
it's just like, bro, whatis real life? But what I said
before is that we don't know whatshe's going through. We don't know what
this abdominal surgery is. And forher to be quiet for months and be
stepping away from her princess duties formonths and away from the spotlight, it
could be a lot. So atthe end of the day, we just
want to keep giving her a positivelight, positive and positive vibes. Sis,

(20:03):
just just don't do anything. Justyou don't have to be posting photos
for us. Come back out andspeak your truth when the time is ready,
because you're just you feel in thefire. That's what's going on,
and it's making it worse. Sis, You're making it worse. But also,
hella funny, like I really don'tthink that in the day, any
of this even matters. It's justreally funny. And I hope that she

(20:25):
is okay, and I hope thatshe's healthy, and that's what we need
to be wishing on her. Numberone. Now, some other things that
we're trending this past week, thefact that Mike Tyson and Jake Paul are
going to be facing off in anexhibition boxing match that will be streamed on
Netflix. First of all, Iknow that Logan Paul is so mad and

(20:45):
so jealous of his little brother.Now, I don't know how deep you
go into the Paul brothers, butI was part of the Logang. I
really loved the whole Logan Paul andJake Paul lure back in the day when
they were every day bro. Andso I've kept up and Logan Paul has

(21:07):
been going off with his podcast Impulsivefor a very long time now. He
has eight list celebrities on there too, And I remember he had his brother,
Jake Paul on last year and theygot into a disagreement kind of on
the show where Logan Paul, theolder brother, he's the one that got
got with like the Japan's Suicide Forestback in the day. He was talking

(21:30):
about how he wants to be likethe biggest entertainer in the entire world and
how that's what he sees for himself. And then you know Jake Paul,
he's carving his own lane for himselftoo, especially in the boxing world,
like he is focusing on that.He has some documentaries that's been put out
on Netflix, which was huge.He is not super super active with his

(21:52):
podcasts or YouTube endeavors anymore because he'sreally focusing on boxing and doing that,
He's been able to put on somepretty big exhibitions and I saw it Logan
Paul was kind of a little saltyabout that. But at the end of
the day, what the younger brother, Jake was telling Logan is that,
Bro, I've been focusing on boxingand being the best boxer that there is.

(22:14):
You want to come in and outof boxing, you want to do
your podcast stuff, you want todo other projects that you have, and
then kind of dibble into boxing whenyou want to, and like that's you're
not gonna be taken seriously. Likethat you're doing your WEWE stuff that is
amazing and incredible, But if youwant to fight these big names in boxing,
like they're not gonna take you seriouslyand they're not gonna want to because

(22:36):
that's not what you're one hundred percentfocusing on. And at the end of
the day, that conversation itself gotreally heated and it was a lot.
It was a lot. We kindof did see that Logan was looking a
little salty at his little brother becausehis little brother is getting these opportunities that
he's not in the boxing world.Now, when I first saw this MiG

(22:56):
Tyson and Jake Paul, I'm like, oh my gosh, Logan is so
salty right now, Like Logan isgoing to be so mad because who can
say in this century that they havebeen able to fight Mike Tyson. Now,
Mike Tyson is an uncaged lion.I mean, this guy, I'm

(23:19):
like shivering thinking of getting into anytype of a ring with Mike Tyson because
he is a full on animal andhe still is in the gym every day,
like he is addicted to the gymand still in love with boxing.
And at fifty seven years old,you're still a peaked male adults like I

(23:42):
think, I think us, Ithink we think like fifty seven is like
a little old, but it's actuallynot. Like if you keep your body
right, you're still very strong andpeaking at fifty seven. Is that wrong?
Is that wrong to say? That'sjust what I think if I think
of it's a fifty seven year oldman, like I'm I'm like, nah,
that guy can still kill somebody.You know, I'm saying he is

(24:06):
thirty years older than Jake Paul.Jake at twenty seven also a good peak
age, like you're mid slash lateish twenties. Right, this is gonna
be insane. It's going down inDallas, Texas at a stadium over there,
and you know, everybody was shookwhen they saw this poster and they

(24:30):
saw that face off on YouTube andon Instagram. This is this, This
is gonna be the fight of ourlifetime. It really is. Jake Paul
said it himself, But no,this really is because Jake's a good fighter,
and he's a strong guy, andhe's really focused. And you know,
say what you want about Jake Paul, I know he's an everyday bro

(24:52):
and some people still don't take himseriously and still see him as a YouTuber.
But this guy, whatever he sayshe wants to do, he has
been able to to do and he'sbeen conquering the world and this just proves
it. So I've I've geeked aboutthis. I really I want to see
what's going to happen. I thinkthe whole world is going to be tuned
in. I think this is goingto be one of the most paid for

(25:12):
fights of all time. I wantto see the numbers it brings in.
This is incredible and iconic, andcongratulations to Jake Paul and how cool of
Mike Tyson to be down to dothis as well. So that's that was
big this past week. Now we'regoing to move into Crystal's a cave.
Sharon, what's been going on withme and my life and my last weekend

(25:34):
of my twenties? How was it? What did I do? Did I
regret it? Hello? Who's inhere? It's so dark? Ew,
what's dripping, I step on something. You're now inside Crystal's case. So
the last week of my twenties kindof crazy, and I'm filling it.

(26:00):
I mean, it's the last weekof my twenties. I mean the weekend
got here, right. I workon the weekends that I'm here in New
York City. So Friday night,I was like, I just want to
relax and do nothing, But Iactually bought a package for a ice skating

(26:22):
lesson and it was so fun.So right after work, I ran to
Central Park at Woman Rink and Ihad my last ice skating lesson at that
rink there. Oh my gosh,my instructor she's so cute. She was
so amazing. She used to skatewith the US team, which is incredible.
She did like synchronized ice skating.She would show me all of her

(26:45):
tricks too, And I'm really happythat I was able to take a lesson
with her because I learned a wholebunch of things that I didn't before.
I'm happy because I first decided tolearn from YouTube Academy and I was just
doing stuff on YouTube. But Ialso was a little nervous because if I'm
doing the wrong things and I'm teachingmyself the wrong way to skate, and
that is not a good way tobe starting. So even though I got
on the ice a little bit thisyear, I'm really happy that I was

(27:07):
like, you know what, I'mjust gonna bite the bullet, spend a
lot of money and take a professionalice skating lesson. And she was really
impressed with me. She's like,oh, wow, like you're doing really
good. I was like, yeah, I put the ice a few times,
and so I'm happy that a lotof like the mini things I was
able to practice already, like crossoversand like stomping on the ice. She
taught me kind of how to spina little, a little tiny bit.

(27:29):
So we're not there fully yet.But man, when I tell you that,
I just had a really beautiful,calm walk to Central Park an hour
lesson, and then right after mylesson, I'm like, I'm going home
because the ice at the Central Parkwoman rink is so bad. It is
so bad. I was just like, I I've told you before last time
that I went, I was like, I'm gonna break something on this ice.

(27:51):
It's like powder. It's not evenice, it's literally powder. Because
of how ran through it's spin.So I just ran home and I watched
the last episode of Love is Blind, where you know who makes it to
the altar or doesn't make it tothe altar. We've been obsessed with that.
The reunion is tomorrow. I'm literallycounting down the seconds. So it
was a really easy and relaxed Fridaynight. Then I woke up, got

(28:15):
ready, facetimed my boyfriend Zaddie fora little bit before I headed to work,
and work was fine, totally easy, got all my stuff out the
way, and then my friends weregoing to meet me at work so we
can go have dinner now. Mygood friend Jake Brown pulled up my girl
here at work jewels, and ShelleyRome, my bestie, she pulled up

(28:36):
too. We all met it hereat work and it was pouring rain and
we all, except for Jewels,forgot umbrellas. So luckily the restaurant was
just a block away. But bythe time we pulled up, I was
soaked and it was just it wascrazy. We went to the Red Eye
Grill, which is a little tadbittouristy in the city. It's also expensive,
but the menu is like my dreamcome true and the food was so

(29:02):
good, and we each had adrink and it was fun. We had
a good little heart to heart atdinner and just kind of getting to know
each other a little bit more andjust kind of reflecting the fact that I'm
gonna be thirty. And then afterthat we're like, oh, like what
we want to do? You know, I'm down to go to like one
more spot, And so I decidedthat I wanted to go to this place
called Carnegie Club. I walk byit from work all the time. It

(29:22):
looks like this little hoity toity lounge, leather couches, beautiful bar, kind
of uppity place. We get thereand they're like, oh, we're packed.
Sorry, and we're like okay,and they're like, but if you
want, you can stand at thebar. And we're like, oh,
yeah, that sounds great. Andthey're like, but it's gonna be a
forty dollars cover charge and a minimumtwo drinks. And we're all kind of
like a forty dollars cover charge.Now you can look in and it's it's

(29:45):
glass and it's boomers, Like it'sall older people that listen to jazz and
are divorced or have been in thecity for a very very very long time
older people, old people, whichwe love yay, love you, but
we were like four people in ourthe thirties and we weren't fully sold.

(30:08):
So we're just like a forty dollarscover charge, bro, and he's just
like, yeah, there's a FrankSinatra cover guy here tonight performing. I'm
like, dang, that does soundnice. And I kind of look and
I'm like, ah, it's kindof as old people though, and then
he's like, no, no,there's like young people too. He was
kind of he was around our age, so I didn't feel weird telling him
that. He was like, no, no, there's people your age too,

(30:29):
like all the way in the backof the bar, and I'm kind
of like uh. And then onelike really old man with a cane starts
coming out limping, and we're justlike e now, like we're thank you,
but we're not gonna pay forty dollarsto stand at a bar appreciate you,
but no, so we soaking wewalk out and we start walking to
another bar that we heard of downthe block, and that place was a

(30:52):
complete tourist bar because it's at ahotel and there were only people that were
visiting at that bar, and itwas in a bar. It was like
a sit down lounge place. Wedid not feel comfortable there, so we
kind of just like had the tablenuts and waters. And then we're leaving
and I was like, yude,there's this bar I know called the Ricky
and it's down two avenues. Soagain we just start walking, pouring rain,

(31:18):
pouring rain. I'm drenched, likeI'm soaked out the shower soaked.
And we finally pull up to theRicky and at this point, I am
just like over it all. It'slike barely eleven and I am toast.
I'm done. I'm really done.This has been fun, this has been
fresh, this has been cold.I just want to be in my warm

(31:41):
bed. So we have a onedrink and we have a good time,
just like hanging out there. Butyeah, I was not trying to rage
anymore, and neither was Shelley.Her and I were like trying to tap
out. We're like, this iscute. We got our dinner, we
got a drink, Like, let'sjust go. So Her and I decide
to call it quits, but Jakeand Jewles decide to keep the party.
Go in, So I go home, get home, on like midnight,

(32:02):
fall asleep, wake up? Whywhy did they post a story at a
club like three hours before they wereout until six in the morning. They
were out until six in the morning, from club to club to bar to
club to club, and they hada grand old time, And I love
that for them. And also youknow, they're like they're single, living

(32:22):
their best lives. Shelley's not datingright now, like I have my man's.
I think it's just different when likeyou're not dating and don't really care
about going. Maybe maybe some peopleare single and do like that lifestyle,
but for me, a dinner anda nightcap and a bed is my good
night. I've just been creeping andcreeping into my Senora life recently, within

(32:46):
the past year really, and sometimesI go off a little bit, but
for the most part, like Ijust went one two drinks and I just
kind of wanted to be done.I don't really want to be at a
loud bar or a loud club withstrangers all around me, and I'm standing,
I just for why, for when? But I'm so happy that they

(33:10):
ended up going now and having areally good time and that's their skis and
amazing love that now I woke up, went to MISA, had an amazing
day at church with my people,actually a really good, impactful time with
my people. Because I've shared toyou before that this is a very interesting

(33:31):
time of my life. A lotof changes, one way or another are
going to be coming upon me thisyear because I'm going to be deciding if
I wanted to stay here in NewYork for the next few years or if
i want to move somewhere else.And I've been teetering back and forth.
I've been trying to introspect a lot. I had to break down this past
week because I distract myself a lotwith my inner thoughts. I always have

(33:57):
something listening to, a podcast orsomething. And one day in the morning,
I was like, you know,I'm just gonna not have anything on
and I'm just gonna sit here anddo my makeup and here with my thoughts.
And I completely broke down. AndI was just sitting down, and
I was thinking, like, whatmakes me the happiest? Who makes me
the happiest? When am I thehappiest? And I think listening to myself

(34:19):
and my heart is like really pushingme to make these decisions. But then
there's also so many things that gointo that decision. It's not just that
black and white. So it's justbeen a lot of me talking to God
and being like, God, whatdo you want for me? Like,
what do you want my path tobe and my journey to be and to
go? And as I'm thinking aboutthat and worrying about these things, what

(34:45):
really mattered to me the most wasmaking sure that I realized that the present
is the most important in trying tokeep present, because that's the only way
you can find true joy and happinessis if you're okay and happy in the
moment right now. And so Iwas really thinking about that, and I
was just thinking how lucky I amto have a family in New York at

(35:07):
church, like a church family,Like I am just so happy that out
of all the places in the worldand all the places in New York City,
New York City is the most expensiveplace to live in the world,
and I have a group of peopleand a family and a place where I
get to go every single Sunday andthey don't ask anything of me, and

(35:28):
it's completely free and I get togo and just share coffee and some snacks
and really good company with people thattruly care about me, and I truly
care about and I was just sohappy in that moment thinking about that,
and I shared that with everyone,and I shared a little prayer and we
were all, you know, andin my hospitality group at church, like

(35:51):
we know each other really really well. We know each other's fears, we
know each other's hopes and prayers,we know each other's blessings, and we
want the best for each other,and we try to help each other all
the time. And so like Iwas sharing that with them because they know
the struggles that I go through,They know the struggles of me missing my
family every single day. They knowthe struggles that I have and that I

(36:12):
keep quiet about here at work everysingle day. And the fact that I
was just like sharing with them howhappy I'm to be with them, and
like in a place that's so expensiveto live, like I'm in a beautiful
church, in a beautiful sharing spacewith them, and we all share each
other coffee and pastries and fruits,and there is my place every week to

(36:37):
be with them. Like I wasso happy and I felt so fulfilled with
them that day. And then notonly that, but afterwards I was going
to be able to hang out withmy girlfriends to have brunch, and it
was just such a great Sunday.And then at brunch, my girl Alex
and my girl Michelle and Jules pulledup and my good friend Risha, my
neighbor who Risha is the one thatI stayed in Dubaie with, remember when

(36:59):
I went last summer. So Ijust kind of wanted to have like a
little girl's brunch. Now, ifyou remember last year, for my birthday,
I had this like big, likebirthday dinner and I invited a whole
bunch of people, and I feellike I kind of just wanted to prove
to myself, like I have peoplehere in New York City and I could
do like these like bougie, funcute things. And it was just like
a It was super expensive and itwas fun, and I was so happy

(37:22):
that people came to celebrate me.But like I don't know how to act.
Like I overdrank. I like overdrank, and I like blacked out of
the strip club and it was justlike, oh my god, Crystal,
I didn't black out, but likeI fell on the floor. It was
just a hot mess. Like Ifelt like I didn't really get to appreciate
it because I overdrank and I wasjust kind of so nervously stressed about having
like a birthday dinner and then makingit look like I have this fabulous,

(37:44):
like New York life with all thesefriends. And even though I did have
great people there and I loved that, like, it just felt a little
like like I was. I feltlike I was just trying too hard and
it was a little more stressful thanfun. And for my birthday here in
New York this year, I justwanted it to be small and I just
wanted to like be around the peoplethat like really matter to me the most.

(38:06):
And so I was really happy that, you know, I was able
to have a small, intimate dinnerThursday night Saturday night with Shelley and Jewels
and Jake, and then I wantedto have just a small, small brunch
with some of my girlies that reallyare so impactful to me and matter.
And no, I have other friendshere obviously that matther matter a lot too,

(38:30):
but you know, if you reachedout to me asking what are you
doing for your birthday, like,I just wanted to be around them.
And so my girlies pulled up andit was this really cute spot that I've
been trying to go to for solong. It's called Elsie's Rooftop. Amazing
drinks, beautiful location. It's notloud like it's not like a club.
There's not like a DJ blasting there. It's like low key and it's so

(38:53):
cute see and cute see, Andwe were able to have our little brunch
there too. We all ordered stuffto eat and we were all just kind
of like talking about you know,and my girls, like some of them
haven't met each other before, soit's kind of bringing different girls in together.
But at the end of the day, we all are sharing stuff about
each other. We're all so motivatedand come from amazing families and backgrounds and

(39:17):
like want the best for each other. It felt like a true woman power
brunch for me. I mean,there was just six of us in total,
and I'm just looking around at myclose girlfriends that I've made here and
I'm just like, y'all each aresuch bosses and badasses in your field,
and I'm just so lucky to callyou guys my friends, and I know

(39:40):
that you guys genuinely want the bestfor me, and we're talking about what's
going on with me and here atwork and what I see for my future
and what I want for myself,and they're all being so real with me
about like the pros and cons ofall the possibilities and my relationships with my
boyfriend and my family and here atwork and what's best for me as a

(40:00):
woman in my career and just forme in general. And I was at
that brunch and like left brunch justfeeling so full, like so full of
love and you know, not reallyeven worries because I've been trying really hard

(40:21):
to ask God what you want ofme, and two things keep coming up.
Number one is surrendering, just likesurrender to God. And number two
is just trusting and trusting God.And remember last week I ran out Hello
quick in a panic because I wantedto make it to church, and man
like, it was a youth massat Saint Patrick's Cathedral here in Midtown,

(40:42):
and that's the one that my girlAlex invited me to and just being with
her, I mean I am hearingthe mass, and you know, the
words surrender kept coming up, andtrust kept coming up, and then those
words keep coming up in different ways, and it's just been making me feel
a lot better about what I wantfor myself. And yeah, so that's

(41:07):
what's been going on with me.Zaddi. He does the most. Oh
my gosh, he ordered me flowersbecause I was just like hell' sick and
it's my birthday month, so heordered me this incredible bouquet of roses,
red roses, just huge, likelong stem like so big, like barely
even a room in my apartment forthem. I'm just like, Babe,

(41:29):
you are ridiculous, Like you dothe most. And he's like, I
know that you were sick last week, and I know it's your birthday month,
so I just want you to feelextra special. And oh my god,
I'm just like, ugh, I'mbeyond just so happy with him.
And the long distance is hard,but I get to see him this weekend
and I'm just really excited about that, and then he's going to be able

(41:51):
to spend some time with me aswell. And he just moved and I'm
really excited about that. He's soI'm so excited about this new place that
he's moved into and he's been havingme help him with like decorating and things
to buy, and I mean,I just feel so special that he includes
me and things like this, likehe is making these moves with me in

(42:15):
mind, and I know that heis setting himself up just in just an
incredible way. Like I'm just beyondproud of him. He's been wanting to
move for a very long time andhe moved into a place that is just
like his dream and honestly, everythingthat he's wanted he it's and it's actually

(42:36):
really funny how opposite it is ofmy living arrangements. Like when you look
out of my window, like yousee the most beautiful view of a city
of New York City, Like yousee just buildings never ending. On the
other side, you see the waterand you see the break. It's just
like a dream for a city girlto live where I live. And it's

(42:58):
it's honestly a breath taking view,like thinking of ever moving. It crumbles
my heart because I look out intowhere I live now and I'm just like,
oh my gosh, Like I wouldhave never dreamed to live in somewhere
like this. And his view whathe looks out is like not one building,
it's just greens. It's just forestand greens. And that's what he

(43:22):
loves. He loves hiking. Heloves the hills. He loves nature,
and trust me like so do I. But that's his exact view right now.
And it's just so funny, thecrazy opposite views him and I have
of our bedroom and living room windows. It's just so funny. And he's
wanted that for so long, andnow he has space, he has ample

(43:45):
space, and he like it justis making room for me in his closets.
He's like, Babe, I havea spot just for you and all
your stuff. I put all yourstuff there, and I'm thinking of these
colors. I'm thinking these rugs,like what do you think here? Should
I? How should I move thishere? How should I organize these things?

(44:05):
And even though I'm doing it forlong distance, I'm doing it hours
at a time with him on FaceTime. Like I feel really special that he's
he wants my help and he wantsmy touch and he wants me to feel
like even though it's his space,like it's our space, and I just
feel so I just feel so lovedthat he cares for that for me,
And I know that he's making thesestrides to motivate himself for like even bigger

(44:29):
and better things. And I don'tknow how much bigger and better you can
get than the place that he hasnow. But I'm just so happy for
him, and he's like, Ican't wait for you to see it,
and I have a surprise for youwhen you get here. I can't wait
to show you. I mentioned tohim that I really want a nest egg
on one of his trees in hisyards. I'm like, I want a

(44:49):
nest egg. I want a nestegg. And when he first moved in,
He's like, look, we putthe rope up, and I thought
that was so funny. It waslike an old, tattered rope from like
the previous owners. And I'm like, I was just like cackling, laughing.
I think that he got me anst egg. I'm hoping that he
got me an s egg. We'regonna see. He's he always listens.
He is such a good listener,and he always gets me everything that I

(45:12):
wanted more. But yeah, that'swhat I think. That's what I think
he got us. He got me, So we'll see when I pull up.
But yeah, I'm just really excitedto be with him. And I'm
just honestly so excited to spend mydirty thirty with my family because last year
it was so much fun. Thankgoodness, my cousin, my being,
my Gavi. She flew and mybrother Junior was here to celebrate my birthday

(45:34):
last year, my twenty nine,which was so fun, you know,
the strip club, everything, thedinner and like it was New York City.
Yes, but I just like missedbeing with my people, and I
was really happy that we also gotto celebrate my brother's dirty thirty last year
and this year, like I justwant us to all get dressed up and
just have the best time ever andjust get sloshed and again not blocked out

(45:57):
because I really don't want to getblocked out. And you clocked me,
You did clock me. I askedyou, Hey, I think the last
time I fully blocked out was aBad Bunny twenty twenty two blackout, the
blackout of Bad Bunny and twenty twentytwo. And I asked you, is
that true? That is that thelast time? And some man of you
guys messaged me on Snapchat saying,Crystal, didn't you blackout on the Hampton's.
Yes, I did blackout this summerin the Hamptons. It was a

(46:20):
hard brown out. It was ahard brown out, and some of them
were blackouts, so that is nottrue. That was not my last blackout.
That I haven't blacked out in frontof Zaddy, which I'm proud of,
and I don't want to do that. I don't want to do that.
So we're testing ourselves this coming weekendseeing if I could survive my dirty

(46:44):
thirty without blacking out again. Ifwe don't, that's the goal. If
we do it happens, I'm justgonna try to pace myself. I'm gonna
try to drink a lot of water. I don't want to be a whole
wreck the next day. I haverequested the next few days off of work
so I can spend a little extratime with my family. My theos are
coming in from Vegas, A,a lot of my families is coming in

(47:05):
to spend the weekend with me,so I'm hoping that I can spend time
with them, and so I askfor the days off. I'm not sure
if I'm actually gonna do it yet, because Zaddi and I actually want to
take a trip together to Europe thisyear, and I don't have a lot
of time off, so hopefully Ican save some days for that. But
we'll see how I feel. Ifeel like I'm gonna want to stay,
but we'll see at the end ofthe day. I'm just so so excited.

(47:30):
We are gonna have a big dinnerwith my family and then after that
a party bus is going to pickus up and we're doing a party bus
around the city. And I'm tellingall my petty us and all my girlies
to dress up like it's your Quinsaniada, like it's your thing, Daniana,
like it's your party, and soeveryone's bringing gowns and stuff like that.
It's gonna be a lower key.My brother's Dirty thirty was huge, and

(47:52):
this one I just kind of wantedit to be just a little smaller and
just like my besties, besties,besties. So I'm so so so excited
for that. And yeah, Iam gonna see you next when I survive,
if I survive next week. Butthat's what's been going on with me

(48:17):
and my life in the Crevice ofCrystal's Cave. Thank you so much for
hanging out together for another episode ofCrystal's night Cap. We're going to do
our daily motivator and then we're goingto close out with our daily prayer that
we didn't do last week, butwe have a good one this week,
so let's start with our daily motivator. This one is called where your Thoughts
Go. Put your thoughts where theywill do the most good. Focus them

(48:39):
on creating and expanding upon what's positiveand desirable. You wouldn't spend your heart
earned money buying things you didn't wantor need. It's important to be just
as discerning with the power of yourthoughts. Sure, you can't help but
notice the negative things in life,and often you must deal with them,
But that doesn't mean you must dwellon them. Choose instead to direct as

(49:01):
much of your thinking as possible towardsgoodness and value and richness. Fill your
thoughts with the best possibilities and withconsideration for how to bring those possibilities to
life. Where your thoughts go,your priorities, your actions, and your
life will follow. Think kindness,generosity, achievement, excellence, and give
real energy to the values you cherish. Every thought has an impact. Point

(49:24):
as many of your thoughts as youcan in meaningful and beneficial directions. Where
your thoughts go, focus them oncreating and expanding upon what's positive and desirable.
How do you feel about hearing thatone we've talked about it before,
like everything that is life and everythingthat your life is it all started from

(49:47):
a thought. And I think thatit really is so important for us to
think about that focus them on creatingand expanding upon what's positive and desirable.
Because I was like watching a podcastor hearing someone talk about about how like
a lot of our anxieties and worriesare about the bad things that happen,
but the percentage of those bad thingshappening are so low, like ninety percent

(50:09):
of the time the good thing happens, and we're like worrying and stressed and
like our stomachs are turning about thebad things, but like the odds of
that actually happening are are not highat all. Number one, and number
two, if something bad like doeshappen, you won't know until that moment,
And in that moment, it's you'restill not you're not dead, Like

(50:30):
it's not the end of the world, like it. You can still direct
any moment that is negative into sometype of positivity or redirect it and make
it somehow good in a way ornot. That's what I've been trying to
do, and that's so true.Like the more that we do focus on

(50:52):
like the positivity of things or likewhat you desire in a good way instead
of dwelling on negative or bad thingsthat happen. Like that's the power that
you have for yourself and even beingaround people that are negative sometimes, like
I just to a certain point,like I can't I have people around me
sometimes where it's just like I knowanything that's gonna happen, like you're gonna

(51:15):
think of the downside, or you'regonna see the downside, or you're gonna
be negative about it, and it'slike those people are dreaming, Like to
me, those people are vampire energies. And of course you want people around
you that are realistic, like that'sone side of things. But also when
you aren't around some people that justare always seeing the bad sides or the
negative side, it's like tang bro, like you need God. No,

(51:37):
I'm just kidding, but no,for real, like it could it could
be easier for us to fall intothose negative thoughts and what bad things can
happen. But it is true thatyou have control of your thoughts and when
you focus them on positive and betterthings, that's the reality of your life

(52:00):
life towards goodness and value and richness, like having that positive outlook in the
moment. That is joy and thatis happiness. And that's what we can
do for ourselves and for everyone aroundus to actually be happy and be joyous.

(52:21):
And it's not easy. It takesa lot of practice, it takes
a lot of time, it takesa lot of like introspecting in yourself,
but we can all do it.It is achievable, and we should definitely
push each other to be like that. Like when you see your friends that
are struggling, we struggle ourselves,just try to reinforce to them that ninety

(52:46):
five percent of the time the goodthing happens and not the bad thing,
and focus on the good thing insteadof the bad. That's going to help
us all. And that is whatleads us into our prayer. Now,
I know that not all of usbelieve in a higher power, some of
us do. Whatever it is thatyou believe in, you can enjoy this

(53:07):
prayer with us, or if you'dlike to tap out, you can totally
do that as well. I justwant to give you the choice to do
that because I don't want to pushmy beliefs or my thoughts on you.
When it comes to what you believein your religion. So, first of
all, thank you so much forbeing here for another episode of Crystal's night
Cap. Please share the pod withyour friends if you're really liking it.
I'm live in New York City Mondaythrough Friday two to six pm on Z

(53:27):
one hundred. I'm live on multiplestations across the country every single weekend and
every single night on the New Hitlisteleven to midnight on our free iHeartRadio app.
To see what times and where andhow on everything. I'm at luck
crystaltles Us, I love you soso so so much, and I'm going
to see you on the next one. This prayer today is for March twelfth,
from the book that I encourage youto get if you're dealing with anxiety

(53:50):
and stress. It's called Jesus CallingEnjoying Peace in His Presence by Sarah Young.
I give it to a lot ofmy friends and family. You can
easily buy it on Amazon, andit's a daily calendar book of just trying
to enjoy presence and peace March twelfth. Waiting, trusting, and hoping are
intricately connected, like golden strands interwovento form a strong chain waiting, trusting,

(54:16):
and hoping. Trusting is the centralstrand because it is the response for
my children that I desire the most. Waiting and hoping embellish the central stand
and strengthen the chain that connects youto me. Waiting for me to work
with your eyes on me is evidencethat you really do trust me. If

(54:37):
you mouth the words I trust you, while anxiously trying to make things go
your way, your words ring hollow. Hoping is future directed, connecting you
to your inheritance in heaven. However, the benefits of hope fall fully on
you in the present. The benefitsof hope fall fully on you in the

(54:58):
present because you are mind. Youdon't just pass time and your waiting.
You can wait expectantly and hopeful trust. Keep your antenna quote out to pick
up even the faintest glimmer of mypresence. That's from John fourteen one,
Psalm twenty seven fourteen in Hebrews sixeighteen through twenty. I think that last

(55:22):
sentence is really good. Keep yourantenna out to pick up on even faintest
glimmer of my presence. That likemy presence, So I've been telling you
like if you don't believe in Godor whatever. When you hear me or
God or I just put that tolike love or energy or positivity. And

(55:42):
the thing is that when I keepreading this Daily Calendar book, like I
read this Daily Calendar of Jesus callingevery single day when I before I start
work, because it makes me dojust that. Keep your antenna out to
pick up even the faintest glimmer ofmy presence, even the faintest glimmer of
like love and what God has givenyou, and staying present with the thanksgiving,

(56:09):
because the only way for us toreally be happy in the presence is
to be thankful and to know thatwe are in We are constantly in the
presence of Love and God and someonethat's going to be there for us no
matter what, and trusting in that, like trusting that waiting, trusting,

(56:37):
hoping. I remember when I wasgoing through so much anxiety and I was
going through panic attacks and depression.I remember like I couldn't like waiting for
things too felt so long, likea a time, like if I had
something to do with an hour ora half hour, if I was getting
picked up by someone or something likeI couldn't just sit down like the thought

(57:00):
of waiting and time going by wasso stressful for me, and it's taken
a lot of time, and it'sstill not one hundred percent, like I
work on this every day, Butnow even like I taken, I'm happy
even just waiting now and like lookingaround and thinking and like people watching or

(57:22):
just like world watching, all thekeeping on that antenna, that antenna to
pick up even the faintest glimmer ofmy presence, like the faintest glimmer of
how amazing life just is. Justto breathe and live, which for the
longest time was so hard for meto do. Like for the longest time,

(57:44):
like I would get sad when Iwould see the sun crack out of
my clothes shades because I didn't wantto wake up and I didn't want it
to be another day. I thinka lot of us have had that,
and I have seen that have beenthere, and what an awful place that
is to be and a lot ofthe times like we can't control it,
Like you can't control that. It'sjust life caught up with you. You're
having all these anxieties, you're havingall these worries, And that is for

(58:07):
me a time that I wasn't closeto God, and I wasn't thankful.
I didn't have my antenna up forall the greatness I didn't know and feel
like there was someone or something thatloved me all the time, even though
there was my family alone. AndI always I'm just I always go back
to, like how thinkful I amfor my mom because my mom saved me,
Like my mom is the reason Igot close to God. My mom

(58:27):
is the reason that I got outof depression and anxiety and away from the
habits that were just so tying medown and down and down. But at
the end of the day, likeknowing that I've been able to go from
there and I'm here with those antennas, like just looking around and thinking like
wow, like how lucky are we? How thankful am I? A lot

(58:50):
of the things that I've prayed forand wanted I have now and a lot
of the things that I have likeso many people would be lucky to have,
And just always keeping that thinks andthat presence of yeah, there is
joy around you, and the joystarts with you knowing that, knowing that
there is someone that loves you nomatter what, knowing that there is joy

(59:10):
in everything, in every second andthat you can bring that through God.
I was talking to my girls thisweekend, and even though we don't believe
in the same God, She's like, I kind of think that it's like
God is like aliens, and Ifeel like those are the ones that are
bringing all this amazingness to us.And I'm like, yeah, like that
could be true too, Like thatcould really be what it is. I

(59:31):
mean, I don't know, nobodyknows. Nobody knows, but yeah,
even just saying like there's like aliensaround us that like are guiding us and
like doing amazing things for us andlike made the universe what it is,
whatever it is you believe in,right, just knowing that, like you
have the power with your thoughts,like the daily motivator today, your thoughts,

(59:52):
thinking of what's positive and what youdesire and looking at the goodness and
the value and richnesses of life,thinking of kindness, generosity, achievements,
excellence, giving real energy to thosevalues that are positive and good, and
just knowing that it's all around usat all times, and the moment is

(01:00:15):
now, like the presence, Likethe way to find happiness and joy is
really through now. So I hopethat if you've been struggling with those things
that this helps you just a littlebit. The daily motivation is from great
Day dot com and these readings arefrom Sarah Jung's Jesus Calling. I know

(01:00:35):
that we can all use extra helpand extra love. Every morning I wake
up and I put on this appcalled the Daily Bread and it's like a
five minute quick podcast of a quickstory, a reading, and then a
prayer if you need extra because wecan all use energy, love and positivity
more and more every single day.So I hope that this prayer helped you
with whatever you're going through. Theimportant part is just to keep your tenant

(01:01:00):
out to pick up even the faintestglimmer of my presence, which means of
love and positivity and good energy.So I love you so so much.
