Hi, this is Dr. Hourglass, and welcome to another video in our channel Star Bodies.
Today we are going to discuss: 3 Common myths about liposuction.
In this channel we discuss everything you need to know to get that star body that you want.
Welcome back!
At a worldwide level, liposuction is one or the second most commonly performed plastic surgery procedure
(together with breast augmentation surgery).
Unfortunately, it is also a procedure covered in myth and mystery, despite the abundant information
you can find all over the internet or from different sources.
However, to make an informed decision about undergoing this procedure, you need to be able
to tell between reality and speculation.
The most common myths related to liposuction are:
1. Liposuction can successfully replace diet and physical exercise
Liposuction is not a weight loss method.
We can't say this often enough.
Liposuction is an aesthetic intervention which will eliminate the fat localized in different areas of the body.
During the procedure, the patient will lose a few pounds as a result of the fat removal.
But by no means will an obese or overweight person return to a normal weight just
by undergoing the procedure.
Keep in mind there is a maximum amount of fat that can be eliminated in one liposuction session,
and this is around 7 liters.
2. The fat deposits will be restored shortly after liposuction
The procedure removes the fat cells in the area targeted.
This means they are permanently removed and won't find their way back into the patient's body.
However, even if the fat cells don't multiply again, they can still increase their volume.
The fat cells that are still left in the area can become larger, giving the appearance of a new fat deposit.
Until this happens, the patient will notice an accumulation of adipose tissue in the areas
that have not been treated with the procedure.
Maintaining a balanced diet and a regular exercise routine is essential for sustaining
the results of the procedure for a long time.
3. Liposuction is a good treatment for cellulite
Cellulite is a complex condition involving the skin, fat and fibrous tissue.
With liposuction, we target the fat deposit that is directly under the skin.
When removing some of that fat, the aspect of the skin in the area can be affected,
but it is not always for the better.
There are cases when the cellulite effect will be diminished and improved when the skin retracts
on the new contours of the area, but this is minor.
There are also cases when, due to poor skin quality, the cellulite effect is made much more visible
after a liposuction procedure.
Don't believe everything you read online, especially when it comes from unverified sources.
If you have questions, check with the plastic surgeon.

Upcoming MBC Drama Responds To Reports Of Delayed Filming Due To Strike
The upcoming MBC drama "20th Century Boys and Girls" (written by Lee Sun Hye and directed by Lee Dong Yoon) recently responded to rumors that its production has been delayed by the strike at MBC.
On August 30, a source from drama's production company, Huayi Brothers, stated, "There have been no decisions made on suspending production.
"20th Century Boys and Girls" (previously titled "No Sex and the City") is about three women in their mid-thirties who have lived in the same neighborhood since they were born.
Han Ye Seul, Kim Ji Suk, Lee Sang Woo, Ryu Hyun Kyung, Ahn Se Ha, Lee Sang Hee, and Oh Sang Jin have been signed to star. The drama began filming back in mid-July.
Previously a source from the drama, reportedly one of the actors involved, made a statement saying that filming for the drama would be suspended starting next week due to the strike at MBC.
If filming is indeed suspended, it is not known how the strike might affect the drama's airdate. "20th Century Boys and Girls" is slated to air after the end of "The King Loves" in September.

Cheap Eyeglasess- RX glasses - Zenni Optical Review - Duration: 12:52.
Hi everyone so today I am going to be talking about an eyeglass compnay know as Zenni Optical. So a couple of weeks ago I went on my
social media and I was asking people where I could order my glasses from I it
had been forever since I had a pair of glasses. Four years! I got the ones that I
have worn in all the previous videos four years ago so that was before kids
and finally I was like you know what you need to get your eyes checked so I knew
I wanted to order my glasses online but I really didn't know where to go I had
heard of Zenni Optical before but I just I wanted to see what else was out there
so I looked at about I think six to seven different online ordering
companies that you can order your eyeglasses on and I decided to go with
Zenni Optical and I am going to share with you why I decided to go with them
so first and foremost let me just say that I am a loving the red frames I have
wanted a pair of red frames since I began to wear glasses I was 6 years of
age when I had to wear glasses but I was told that I couldn't wear red glasses
because of my skin tone and it wouldn't work with it as well as when
I got older that red lipstick wouldn't work with my skin tone well obviously
I'm 34 and I don't know what folks we're talking about basically I'm saying that
don't let anyone limit what you can do based on their insecurities so if it's
something that you want to try and you like it
then go for it so let's just get right on it for starters I went with Zenni
Optical because of their price point for their frames. these frames were
$15.95 my purple frames were $6.95 like what what the what in the world are you
serious so right after that as far as priceless concerns Zenni Optical was it I
like the aray of frame selection that they had and I also really liked their
price point second reason why I decided to go with is Zenni Optical over all else
is because I also live in Florida and so I wanted to have something that was a
transition lens I had a transition lens before in my old glasses and I wanted to
have that as well in my new set of glasses so when I looked online at all
these other companies all they had to offer was the
transition lens and that runs about a hundred dollars and I'm like okay there
has to be a better way Photochromic
which is basically your lenses are clear and then
when you get out to the sunlight they will tint so as any optical has
different versions of tent I believe it has the green the blue the amber or like
the yellow color and the gray I opted for the grey for my red lenses and the
amber are the yellow color for my purple lenses so the difference they had three
different tiers the one that I had decided to go with was the Zenni
Opticals one it was the cheapest of all three options it was $19 so the two
colors that I decided to get which was the grey and the amber color they have
between a it's 50 to 80% transition obviously the 50% is for the colors of
the blue and the green you get the higher percentage with the two colors
that I decided to go with which was the grey and the amber I'm not mad at the
fact that it was $19 to add that and like I said before I got the specific
transition lens are that type that's the name of the type of photochromatic
transition and that was a hundred dollars it was the same price if he went
through Zenni Optical and then they had a second one and I that was like $60
I can go to the website it actually kind of breaks it down and I'll put that in
the link below where it breaks it down and gives you the percentages and
everything so I decided to go with Zenni because $19 for a transition was amazing
I don't have to buy a prescription sunglass which was running anywhere even
on the cheaper end with my even on the cheaper in with just the lenses
prescription was about $54 and I just really didn't want to do that because I
would have to carry around my sunglasses my prescription sunglasses on top of my
glasses so I just opted for the for the transition and it worked out
better for me that was a better choice for me and like I said Zenni was the
only company that offered that at a lower price everyone else was $100 or
more and Zenni offered it as a three different price point so it had
something for everyone's a price point which I really appreciate it so that's
why I went like that a little thing that you guys should know when you're
ordering your glasses online whether you have astigmatism you're near-sighted
you're far excited when I went on there I ordered it as a single lens a single
lens frame and then you make sure to have your prescription from your eye
doctor when you're getting your prescription you need to ask for the PD
or your pupil distance because when you're ordering your glasses online a
company that you go with they are going to ask that Zenni Optical was very
very easy to order from i was able to put in my prescription as well as my
pupil distance and seriously it was a lot easier than what i thought i like
Zenni Optical because not only do they have the option for you to upload a
photo for yourself i ordered mine online with my computer my husband ordered his
through his phone and we were both able to upload a picture of our face so that
we could see what the frames look like on our faces before we ordered it Zenni
also has a 30-day money-back guarantee except for your shipping cost we decided
to go ahead and I think we did the $18 shipping so
that it could be fast and we ordered our glasses last Wednesday and today is
Wednesday August 30th and we received our glasses today in the mail so that's
pretty quick 5 business days to create your lenses as well as the frame so I
had no complaints in that department with my glasses I also opted to add the
anti-reflective on them because I make videos and because I live in a very
sunny area I decided to add that and that was an extra $4.95 on top of my
frame and my lenses and the transition on top of it now all of Zenni's glasses
I'm gonna have to read this off so make sure it does
so all of the Zenni classes that you get they come with free anti scratch coating
Free UV protection and free hard case and cleaning cloth other companies that I
looked at they didn't come with a case to put your glasses in now I'm not
saying that this is the best this is the best of cases however it is clear
plastic so you can see the lenses this has a nice little soft area that you can
put your lenses face down so they're not gonna get scratched and then obviously
it comes with your cleaning cloth so that is pretty nice I like that it does
have the anti scratch and that that comes standard in your glasses again
other companies that I was looking at they were charging extra for that so
let's talk price these red frames which by the way are so
light I was shocked at how light they are and they fit amazing
so these frames alone were $15.95 like I stated at the beginning you add on to
the lens which is the transition which is the Zinni's version which was $19 and
then be anti glare which was $4.95 my total price for these pair of glasses
was $39 $39 purple is one of my favorite colors and so I had to get a pair of
purple frames and these ones like I stated at the beginning the frames
themselves were $6.95 I also got the anti glare which $4.95 and Zenni version of
transition which was $19 so my grand total for these was $30.90
The other glasses, The ones I got four years ago what's four hundred and fifty dollars
complete complete $450 was me going to the eye exam place,getting my eye exam
getting my glasses. That all adds up to four hundred and fifty dollars so my glasses
alone were four hundred because the eye exam itself was fifty I went right up
the street just up any place to get my glasses I need to get my eye exam which
was $45. to get my eye exams they literally gave me my prescription
that day I came home and I ordered my glasses and total I paid eighty two
dollars and sixty-seven cents that was with expedited shipping say what now
I will never what if I tell you I will never order my glasses from an
eyeglass like going into a optometrist again no no I will just get my
prescription from them because I obviously need to go to an eye doctor to
get that but I will cut that middleman out and I will just order them online
from now on I have astigmatism my husband is farsighted and both of us
love love the glasses that we were very surprised at getting them and
and wearing them and actually using them so we were both but what we were both
very happy about that also if you are new to Zenni Optical they will send you a
10% off coupon for your order which is also something that I use now this video
in no way is sponsored I am not big enough for them to recognize my channel
something that I have been thinking about doing and I kind of wanted to
break down and let you guys know how everything went because if you are
looking into ordering your glasses online as well this is specifically why
I went with this company and like I said I looked up about I think it was like 7
to 8 different companies my choice is um like I narrowed it down between Zenni
optical and Eye Buy Direct. those were the two that I was kind of battling to see
which one I really wanted to go with and is Zenni Optical won hands down just
because of the type of frames that I was looking for their price point and the
fact that they did offer those three different tiers for the transition
lenses which is something living in a sunny state so there you have it on why
I decided to go with Zenni Optical over all the other eyeglass online ordering
companies that are out there I hope this is very informative for you guys if you
have any other questions maybe I missed something and you want to know a little
bit more please feel free to put those down below in the comment section and I
will answer them for you and thank you so much for watching I will
bye

Faithfulness - Part 2 - Enjoying Everyday Life - Duration: 28:33.
ANNOUNCER: THE FOLLOWING PROGRAM IS PAID FOR BY
THE FRIENDS AND PARTNERS OF JOYCE MEYER MINISTRIES.
[MUSIC]
FEMALE: HOW DO I TRUST GOD WHEN I HAVE BEEN DISAPPOINTED
OVER AND OVER AND OVER?
FEMALE: HOW CAN I HAVE FAITH IN GOD WHEN I'M NOT SEEING
AN IMPROVEMENT?
MALE: I TRUST GOD BUT SOMETIMES I HAVE SO MANY FEAR
I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.
[MUSIC]
[MUSIC]
JOYCE: WELCOME TO "ENJOYING EVERYDAY LIFE."
I WANNA TALK TO YOU TODAY ABOUT FAITHFULNESS.
YOU KNOW, GOD HAS A WONDERFUL PLAN FOR EACH AND EVERY ONE
OF US AND THAT INCLUDES YOU.
WHEN WE'RE FAITHFUL TO HIM, HE RELEASES FAVOR AND BLESSING
IN OUR LIVES.
IN TODAY'S TEACHING I WANNA TALK ABOUT SOME VERY SPECIFIC AREAS
IN WHICH GOD WANTS US TO BE FAITHFUL.
THEN LATER, GINGER WILL JOIN ME AND WE WILL ANSWER YOUR
QUESTIONS THAT YOU'VE SENT IN ABOUT WHAT IT MEANS TO BE
FAITHFUL IN EVERYDAY SITUATIONS.
SO STAY WITH US.
JOYCE: LET ME TALK TO YOU ABOUT SOME AREAS TO BE
FAITHFUL IN.
BE FAITHFUL WITH WHAT BELONGS TO ANOTHER PERSON.
IF YOU BORROW SOMETHING FROM SOMEBODY, TAKE IT BACK IN BETTER
CONDITION THAN YOU GOT IT IN OR AT LEAST AS GOOD AS YOU
GOT IT IN.
WHEN PEOPLE TELL YOU A SECRET, KEEP THEIR SECRETS.
THAT'S PART OF BEING A FAITHFUL FRIEND.
LUKE 16:12.
BOY, LUKE, YOU'RE IN THE BIBLE A LOT TONIGHT.
LUKE 16:12: "AND IF YOU HAVE NOT PROVED FAITHFUL IN THAT WHICH
BELONGS TO ANOTHER PERSON [WHETHER GOD OR MAN], WHO WILL
GIVE YOU THAT WHICH IS YOUR OWN?"
SO GOD TESTS US MANY TIMES IN HAVING US NEED TO SERVE OR WORK
FOR SOMEBODY ELSE AND HE CHECKS OUR FAITHFULNESS TO SEE IF WE
ACTUALLY ARE THE KIND OF PERSON THAT CAN BE TRUSTED WITH
SOMETHING OF OUR OWN.
IF YOU'RE NOT GONNA BE FAITHFUL ON THE JOB THAT YOU'VE GOT, YOU
WON'T BE FAITHFUL EVEN IF YOU OWNED YOUR OWN BUSINESS.
IF YOU WORK FOR SOMEBODY ELSE, ESPECIALLY IF YOU'RE IN
A POSITION OF ANY KIND OF AUTHORITY WHERE YOU HAVE
ANY DISCRETION OVER ANY OF THE MONEY, DO NOT SPEND--DON'T
WASTE YOUR EMPLOYER'S MONEY.
SPEND IT LIKE IT WERE YOUR OWN.
BE ON TIME FOR WORK.
IF YOU'RE PAID FOR AN 8-HOUR DAY, THEN WORK
AN 8-HOUR DAY, HMM.
[AUDIENCE LAUGHING]
JOYCE: IF YOU HAVE INSURANCE BENEFITS USE THEM LIKE YOU WERE
PAYING FOR THE INSURANCE.
I'LL BE HONEST WITH YOU.
TO ME, THIS IS SOME OF THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS YOU CAN HEAR
BECAUSE IT'S THESE LITTLE BEHIND-THE-SCENE THINGS THAT
REALLY MEAN SO MUCH MORE TO GOD THAN WHAT WE CAN EVEN
POSSIBLY IMAGINE.
ALWAYS DO WHAT'S RIGHT, ESPECIALLY IF NOBODY'S LOOKING.
TAKE CARE OF THE BUILDING YOU WORK IN LIKE IT WERE YOUR
OWN HOME.
MATTHEW 25 IS PROBABLY ONE OF THE BEST CHAPTERS ABOUT THIS
KIND OF STUFF AND YOU'RE PROBABLY FAMILIAR WITH IT SO I'M
NOT GONNA GO THROUGH THE WHOLE THING.
BUT IT SAYS: "A MAN WAS GOING ON A LONG JOURNEY, AND HE CALLED
HIS SERVANTS TOGETHER AND HE ENTRUSTED THEM WITH HIS
PROPERTY."
WELL, THIS IS TALKING ABOUT THE THINGS THAT GOD HAS ENTRUSTED US
WITH.
AND IT SAYS HE'S GONNA COME BACK SOMEDAY AND REQUIRE
AN ACCOUNTING OF WHAT HE'S GIVEN US.
"TO ONE MAN HE GAVE 5 TALENTS [ABOUT $5000], TO ANOTHER 2, TO
ANOTHER 1," AND I LOVE THIS, "TO EACH ONE HE GAVE IN PROPORTION
TO THEIR OWN PERSONAL ABILITY TO HANDLE IT."
GOD DOESN'T GIVE EVERYBODY THE SAME THING BECAUSE EVERYBODY
CAN'T HANDLE THE SAME THING.
AND SO WE DON'T NEED TO BE JEALOUS OF WHAT SOMEBODY ELSE
HAS.
WE JUST NEED TO DO THE BEST WE CAN WITH WHAT GOD'S GIVEN US AND
THEN IF WE'RE FAITHFUL IN THAT, GOD WILL GIVE US INCREASE
AND THERE WILL BE MORE.
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
JOYCE: MATTER OF FACT, I THINK SOMETIMES GOD WILL BLESS
SOMEBODY WITH WHAT YOU WANT IN FRONT OF YOU JUST TO SEE
IF YOU'LL BE JEALOUS.
[AUDIENCE LAUGHING]
JOYCE: DO YOU KNOW, IT'S A BIG TEST OF SPIRITUAL MATURITY
TO BE HAPPY FOR SOMEBODY ELSE WHO'S GETTING WHAT YOU WANT THAT
YOU DON'T HAVE YET.
"HE WHO RECEIVED FIVE TALENTS WENT AT ONCE AND TRADED THEM,
AND GOT FIVE MORE.
HE WHO HAD THE TWO TALENTS TRADED HIS AND GOT TWO MORE.
BUT HE WHO HAD RECEIVED THE ONE TALENT
WENT AND DUG A HOLE IN THE GROUND AND HID HIS
MASTER'S MONEY.
NOW AFTER A LONG TIME THE MASTER CAME BACK TO SETTLE ACCOUNTS
WITH HIS SERVANTS."
CAN I JUST TELL YOU TONIGHT THAT JESUS IS COMING BACK AND IT MAY
NOT BE ALL THAT LONG.
[AUDIENCE CHEERING]
JOYCE: I NOTICE IN THE BIBLE, IN THE NEW TESTAMENT,
THE APOSTLES WERE ALWAYS TALKING ABOUT THE LORD'S COMING SOON.
BE UNSELFISH, THE LORD'S COMING SOON.
THE LORD'S GONNA RETURN SOON.
ENCOURAGE ONE ANOTHER BECAUSE THE LORD'S COMING SOON.
AND SO IN THE LAST YEAR, I'VE BEEN TRYING TO TELL OUR CROWDS
MORE, "THE LORD'S COMING BACK SOON."
IF YOU WOULD HAVE TO CHANGE SOMETHING IN YOUR LIFE--IF I
SAID JESUS IS COMING BACK NEXT SATURDAY AND YOU BELIEVED ME, IS
THERE ANYTHING YOU'D HAVE TO CHANGE IN YOUR LIFE TO GET READY
FOR HIS COMING?
WELL, IF THERE IS, THEN CHANGE IT NOW.
BECAUSE ROMANS 14 SAYS, "EVERY MAN IS GONNA STAND BEFORE GOD
AND GIVE AN ACCOUNT OF HIS LIFE."
WE'RE NOT GONNA GIVE AN ACCOUNT FOR SOMEBODY ELSE'S LIFE.
THAT'S WHY WE REALLY SHOULD GET AROUND TO JUST MINDING OUR OWN
BUSINESS AND MAKING SURE WE'RE RIGHT WITH GOD BECAUSE GOD'S NOT
GONNA ASK ME ABOUT DAVE.
HE'S NOT GONNA ASK YOU ABOUT ME.
HE'S NOT GONNA ASK ME ABOUT THE BARNETTS.
HE'S GONNA ASK ME TO GIVE AN ACCOUNTING OF WHAT HE HAS
ENTRUSTED ME WITH.
AND I WANT TO HEAR WHAT THESE PEOPLE HEARD: "WELL DONE, THOU
GOOD AND FAITHFUL SERVANT.
YOU HAVE BEEN FAITHFUL AND TRUSTWORTHY OVER A LITTLE;
I WILL NOW PUT YOU IN CHARGE OF MUCH," AMEN?
MAYBE YOU DON'T WANT ANY MORE THAN WHAT YOU HAVE AND I DON'T
KNOW THIS BUT MAYBE YOU'RE WANTING MORE THAN WHAT YOU HAVE
BUT IF YOU REALLY LOOK AT YOUR LIFE MAYBE, JUST MAYBE, YOU'RE
NOT BEING FAITHFUL WITH WHAT YOU'VE ALREADY GOT.
MAYBE, I DON'T KNOW.
AND OF COURSE, THEN THERE WAS THE ONE SERVANT WHO WENT AND HID
HIS STUFF IN THE GROUND AND HIS MASTER SAID TO HIM IN VERSE 26:
"YOU WICKED, LAZY, IDLE SERVANT!"
[AUDIENCE LAUGHING]
JOYCE: GOD IS NOT HAPPY WITH US WHEN WE DO NOTHING WITH WHAT
HE'S GIVEN US BUT WASTE IT.
THE SERVANT WHO DID NOTHING LOST WHAT HE'D BEEN GIVEN.
PROVERBS 20, VERSE 6: "MOST MEN WILL PROCLAIM EACH HIS OWN
GOODNESS, BUT WHO CAN FIND A FAITHFUL MAN?"
I WANNA BE A FAITHFUL PERSON.
I WANNA HEAR THAT, "WELL DONE, THOU GOOD AND FAITHFUL SERVANT.
ENTER INTO THE JOY OF THE LORD."
BUT I'M NOT GONNA HEAR THAT IF I DON'T MAKE RIGHT CHOICES NOW,
AND NEITHER WILL YOU.
GOD SEES EVERYTHING THAT WE DO.
HE HEARS EVERY WORD THAT WE SPEAK.
IN LUKE CHAPTER 12, IT SAYS, "WHATEVER IS HIDDEN BEHIND
CLOSED DOORS WILL ONE DAY BE SHOUTED FROM THE ROOFTOPS."
WE ARE NOT GETTING BY WITH ANYTHING.
YOUR BOSS MIGHT NOT BE LOOKING, BUT GOD'S LOOKING.
AND THAT'S WHO WE NEED TO LIVE TO PLEASE.
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
JOYCE: YOU TAKE UP THIS SECRET WONDERFUL RELATIONSHIP
WITH GOD WHERE YOU'RE LIVING FOR HIM, LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING.
THERE'S GONNA BE A HARVEST IN YOUR LIFE AND WHILE YOU'RE
WAITING FOR HARVEST THERE'S GONNA BE HANDFULS ON PURPOSE
LEFT FOR YOU EVERYWHERE YOU GO.
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
JOYCE: PSALM 12:1: "HELP, LORD!
FOR PRINCIPLED AND GODLY PEOPLE ARE HERE NO MORE; FAITHFULNESS
AND THE FAITHFUL VANISH FROM AMONG THE SONS OF MEN."
BE FAITHFUL WITH WHAT GOD HAS ENTRUSTED YOU WITH.
BE A GOOD MANAGER.
MANAGE YOUR MONEY WELL.
KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING WITH YOUR MONEY.
DON'T JUST BE WASTEFUL WITH IT AND HAVE NO PLAN FOR IT.
PROVERBS TALKS A LOT ABOUT PRUDENCE, AND PRUDENCE IS
SIMPLY GOOD MANAGEMENT OF OUR RESOURCES.
MANAGE YOUR FINANCES WELL.
PAY YOUR BILLS ON TIME.
DON'T BUY MORE THAN YOU CAN PAY FOR.
GIVE A LITTLE, SAVE A LITTLE, SPEND A LITTLE.
IF YOU DO IT ALL IN BALANCE, GOD WILL GIVE YOU MORE AND MORE
AND MORE.
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
JOYCE: I TOLD MY STAFF THE OTHER DAY, I SAID, "DO YOU
REALIZE IF YOU AS AN INDIVIDUAL FROM THE TIME YOU GOT YOUR
FIRST JOB, IF YOU WOULD HAVE FAITHFULLY SET ASIDE JUST 5% OF
YOUR INCOME FROM THE FIRST TIME YOU GOT A PAYCHECK, NOT ONE OF
YOU WOULD BE UNDER FINANCIAL PRESSURE OF ANY KIND RIGHT NOW."
IT'S NOT WHAT WE DO RIGHT ONE TIME THAT MAKES
A DIFFERENCE IN OUR LIFE.
IT'S DOING IT OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER.
I'LL TELL YOU WHAT, I WANT TO BE A FINISHER IN LIFE.
A FINISHER.
THAT'S SO IMPORTANT TO ME.
I WANNA FINISH MY ASSIGNMENT.
EVERY SINGLE ONE OF US HAVE SOME KIND OF AN ASSIGNMENT FROM GOD.
AND IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE A PLATFORM ASSIGNMENT.
MIKE AND PENNIE SHEPARD WHO TRAVEL WITH US, I'VE KNOW THEM
FOR OVER 30 YEARS, AND THEY SERVED ANOTHER PASTOR FOR
20 YEARS THE SAME WAY THEY SERVE IN OUR MINISTRY NOW.
AND THEY SAID TO DAVE AND I NOT TOO LONG AGO--WE WERE ON A PLANE
AND THEY CAME AND SAT DOWN WITH US AND SAID, "WE JUST WANNA TELL
YOU THAT WE FEEL THAT UNLESS GOD WOULD SPEAK SOMETHING
DIFFERENTLY TO US THAT WE ARE COMMITTED TO YOU AND DAVE.
UNTIL YOU ARE NO LONGER HERE, WE WILL BE FAITHFUL, WE WILL BE
WITH YOU TO HELP YOU."
NOW, I DON'T KNOW ABOUT YOU BUT LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING,
THERE'S A VERY FEW PEOPLE LIKE THAT ARE GONNA STICK WITH YOU
THEIR WHOLE LIFE AND I'M GLAD THAT HE'S FINISHING HIS
ASSIGNMENT WITH US.
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
JOYCE: BE FAITHFUL IN YOUR GIVING.
GIVE AND GIVE AND GIVE AND GIVE UNTIL YOU MAKE THE DEVIL SO MAD
HE CAN'T HARDLY STAND IT.
AND BE FAITHFUL IN PRAYER.
JUST KEEP AT IT AND KEEP AT IT AND KEEP AT IT.
JUST TELL THE DEVIL, "I AM NOT GONNA SHUT UP.
YOU ARE NOT GONNA SHUT ME UP.
I AM GOING TO DO THE THINGS THAT GOD HAS ASKED ME TO DO AND I'M
GONNA DO 'EM WITH A SMILE ON MY FACE."
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
JOYCE: BE FAITHFUL IN YOUR MARRIAGE.
WHEN YOU LOSE THE GOOSEBUMPS DON'T GO GET A NEW PARTNER,
AMEN?
MY HUSBAND HAS BEEN SO FAITHFUL IN SO MANY WAYS.
I MEAN, DAVE HAS SAT IN THOUSANDS OF MEETINGS LIKE THIS,
RIGHT WHERE HE'S SITTING RIGHT NOW.
[AUDIENCE CHEERING]
JOYCE: LET ME READ YOU ACTS 20:22 THROUGH 24.
BOY, THIS IS ONE OF MY VERY FAVORITE SCRIPTURES.
THIS IS PAUL: "AND NOW, YOU SEE, I AM GOING TO JERUSALEM,
BOUND BY THE [HOLY] SPIRIT AND OBLIGATED AND COMPELLED BY THE
[CONVICTIONS OF MY OWN] SPIRIT, NOT KNOWING WHAT WILL BEFALL
ME THERE."
HE'S SAYING, "I FEEL IN MY HEART THAT THIS IS
WHAT I'M SUPPOSED TO DO.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN WHEN I GET THERE BUT I KNOW
I NEED TO GO."
VERSE 23: "EXCEPT THAT THE HOLY SPIRIT
CLEARLY AND EMPHATICALLY AFFIRMS TO ME IN CITY AFTER CITY
THAT IMPRISONMENT AND SUFFERING AWAIT ME."
WELL, I WONDER HOW MANY PEOPLE WOULD HAVE STOPPED TRAVELING
RIGHT ABOUT THEN.
BUT LISTEN TO WHAT HE SAID.
"BUT NONE OF THESE THINGS MOVE ME; NEITHER DO I COUNT MY LIFE
DEAR TO MYSELF, IF ONLY I MAY FINISH MY COURSE WITH JOY
AND THE MINISTRY WHICH I HAVE OBTAINED [WHICH WAS ENTRUSTED
TO ME BY] THE LORD JESUS, FAITHFULLY TO ATTEST TO THE GOOD
NEWS (OF THE GOSPEL]"
HE SAID, "I DON'T CARE HOW HARD IT IS.
I DON'T CARE WHAT IT TAKES.
I DON'T CARE WHAT IT COSTS.
I WANT TO FINISH MY ASSIGNMENT AND DO WHAT GOD HAS CALLED ME
TO DO.
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
JOYCE: WELL, GOD'S WORD TEACHES US THAT A FAITHFUL MAN
WILL BE RICHLY BLESSED.
BUT YOU KNOW, IF WE'RE REALLY HONEST, SOMETIMES IT CAN BE HARD
TO REMAIN FAITHFUL.
MANY OF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS ABOUT FAITHFULNESS, AND GINGER IS HERE
TO ASK ME SOME OF THE QUESTIONS THAT YOU'VE SENT IN AND,
BY GOD'S GRACE AND MERCY, I AM GOING TO TRY TO ANSWER THEM.
SO GINGER, IT'S FUN ANSWERING THESE QUESTIONS.
IT'S NOT SO MUCH FUN NOT KNOWING WHAT THEY ARE BUT SO FAR--
GINGER: THAT'S THE FUN FOR US.
JOYCE: YEAH, THAT'S THE FUN FOR YOU, BUT--
GINGER: WE HAVE SOME GREAT ONES.
THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WITH QUESTIONS ON FAITHFULNESS.
HOW MANY OF US DON'T HAVE QUESTIONS ON THIS, I DON'T KNOW.
SO HERE'S A GREAT PLACE TO START.
REBECCA ASKS, "HOW DO I REMAIN FAITHFUL TO GOD WHEN HE HASN'T
ANSWERED MY PRAYERS?" JOYCE: WELL, FIRST OF ALL,
I THINK THAT WE BETTER GIVE A LITTLE UNDERSTANDING ABOUT
WHAT FAITHFULNESS IS.
YOU KNOW, FAITHFULNESS, IF I JUST PUT IT SIMPLY IS STICKING
WITH SOMETHING WHEN YOU DON'T WANT TO ANYMORE, WHEN YOU DON'T
FEEL LIKE DOING IT, WHEN IT DOESN'T SEEM LIKE IT'S WORKING.
AND SO THERE'S NO REAL EMOTION THAT WE LIKE TIED TO
FAITHFULNESS.
GINGER: OH, THAT'S A REALLY GOOD POINT.
SO IT'S NOT CONNECTED AT ALL TO IF WE FEEL LIKE WE SHOULD BE
FAITHFUL?
JOYCE: NO, NOT AT ALL.
SO HER QUESTION, HOW CAN SHE REMAIN FAITHFUL TO GOD WHEN HE'S
NOT ANSWERING HER PRAYER, WELL, FIRST OF ALL, A DELAY IS NOT
A DENIAL.
JUST BECAUSE GOD HASN'T ANSWERED OUR PRAYER IN THE TIMEFRAME THAT
WE THINK HE SHOULD OR IN THE WAY THAT WE THINK HE SHOULD, DOESN'T
MEAN THAT GOD IS NOT WORKING IN OUR LIVES.
AND SO FAITH IS FOR THE IN-BETWEEN.
YOU KNOW, YOU CAN ASK FOR SOMETHING AND THAT'S EXCITING
BECAUSE, OOH, I'M GONNA ASK GOD FOR THIS AND HE'S GONNA
PROVIDE IT.
AND WHEN THE ANSWER COMES, THEN THAT'S EXCITING.
BUT THE IN-BETWEEN IS THE TIME THAT YOU NEED TO BE FAITHFUL.
AND I THINK THE SHORT ANSWER TO HER QUESTION IS WE NEVER WANT TO
TIE OUR FAITHFULNESS TO GOD TO WHAT HE'S DOING FOR US BECAUSE
IF WE DO THAT THEN OUR MOTIVE FOR EVEN WANTING TO HAVE
A RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD IS A LITTLE BIT OFF BASE.
GINGER: RIGHT, AS LONG AS YOU DO WHAT I WANT, YEAH.
JOYCE: WE SHOULD SERVE GOD FOR WHO HE IS, NOT WHAT HE
DOES FOR US.
"DELIGHT YOURSELF IN THE LORD AND HE WILL GIVE YOU THE DESIRES
OF YOUR HEART."
AND THERE ARE TESTS THAT WE WILL GO THROUGH IN LIFE WHERE WE
WON'T GET WHAT WE WANT WHEN WE THINK WE SHOULD GET IT.
AND I'LL JUST SAY THIS AND THEN WE CAN GO ON TO ANOTHER
QUESTION.
YOU KNOW, THE ATTITUDE THAT I'VE LEARNED TO TAKE AND IT'S NOT
ALWAYS AN EASY ONE, BUT IS THAT IF I DON'T GET WHAT I WANT,
GOD'S NOT EVER HOLDING OUT ON ME.
IT'S ONLY BECAUSE HE HAS SOMETHING BETTER IN MIND AND I
DON'T YET KNOW HOW TO ASK FOR THAT.
AND SO GOD IS FAITHFUL.
HE IS GOOD AND JUST BECAUSE WE DON'T LIKE HIS TIMING,
DOESN'T MEAN HE'S NOT WORKING IN OUR LIVES.
GINGER: RIGHT, OKAY, GREAT.
BETH WOULD LIKE TO KNOW, "I HAVE A CO-WORKER WHO ISN'T VERY NICE
TO ME AND IT'S EXHAUSTING ME.
HOW DO I REMAIN FAITHFUL IN SHOWING HER THE LOVE
AND GRACE OF CHRIST?" JOYCE: WELL, THE BIBLE SAYS
IN GALATIANS 6: "BE NOT WEARY IN WELL-DOING FOR IN DUE SEASON YOU
SHALL REAP IF YOU FAINT NOT."
THE AMPLIFIED BIBLE SAYS: "DON'T BE WEARY IN DOING WHAT'S RIGHT."
AND SOMETHING THAT I LIKE TO SHARE WITH PEOPLE IS THAT FIRST
OF ALL WHEN WE'RE DOING WHAT'S RIGHT WHEN IT DOESN'T FEEL GOOD
OR WHEN WE DON'T SEEM TO BE GETTING A RIGHT RESULT, THAT'S
ACTUALLY WHEN WE'RE GROWING SPIRITUALLY.
WHEN I DO WHAT'S RIGHT AND I'M GETTING A RIGHT RESULT, I MEAN,
IF I TREAT YOU NICE AND YOU TREAT ME NICE BACK AND I TREAT
YOU NICE AND YOU TREAT ME NICE BACK, THEN THAT'S NOT HARD.
I MEAN, YOU DON'T EVEN NEED CHRIST IN YOUR LIFE TO DO THAT.
SO THE THING FOR US IS BEING ABLE TO DO IT WHEN IT'S HARD,
WHEN IT'S DIFFICULT.
AND THE THING ABOUT BEING KIND TO PEOPLE THAT AREN'T KIND TO
YOU, AND I THINK THAT'S PROBABLY ONE OF THE HARDEST THINGS IN
THE WORLD TO DO IF YOU WANNA KNOW THE TRUTH.
I MEAN, THAT'S CHALLENGING FOR ME.
GINGER: IT IS EXHAUSTING, YEAH.
JOYCE: I MEAN, IT IS, AND IT'S HARD FOR ANYBODY TO JUST
KEEP BEING KIND TO SOMEBODY.
AND I DON'T THINK THAT WE EVER JUST LET PEOPLE WALK
ALL OVER US.
I DON'T THINK THAT'S GOOD FOR THEM.
BUT ALL OF THESE QUESTIONS ABOUT FAITHFULNESS, THE BOTTOM LINE
ANSWER IS WE DO IT FOR GOD, WE DON'T DO IT FOR PEOPLE.
AND WE DO IT FOR HIM NOT BECAUSE OF WHAT WE GET OUT OF IT, BUT
JUST BECAUSE HE'S ASKED US TO.
JESUS SAID, "IF YOU LOVE ME YOU WILL OBEY ME."
GINGER: YEAH, THAT'S GOOD TO REMEMBER, ESPECIALLY DURING
THOSE TOUGH TIMES.
WELL, OBVIOUSLY, A LOT OF THESE QUESTIONS DEALING WITH
FAITHFULNESS ARE GOING TO HAVE SIMILAR THEMES IN THEIR ANSWERS
BUT DEALING WITH DIFFERENT SITUATIONS ARE VERY HELPFUL.
YOU'RE JUST SO PRACTICAL AND THAT HELPS.
TARA WOULD LIKE JUST TO ASK: "THE SPIRIT IS WILLING BUT
THE FLESH IS WEAK.
HOW DO I REMAIN FAITHFUL IN MY COMMITMENTS WHEN I'M SO TIRED
AND BUSY?" JOYCE: WELL, FIRST THING,
I THINK WE PROBABLY NEED TO USE A LITTLE MORE WISDOM IN WHAT
WE COMMIT TO.
I THINK THAT WE DON'T SPEND ENOUGH TIME REALLY THINKING
THROUGH WHAT A COMMITMENT IS GOING TO TAKE.
A VERY POPULAR MUSIC ARTIST THAT I KNOW SAID TO ME ONE TIME--I
ASKED HER HOW--WE WERE TALKING ABOUT SPEAKING ENGAGEMENTS
AND DIFFERENT THINGS THAT WE GET ASKED TO DO IN MINISTRY AND HOW
DO YOU KNOW WHICH ONES TO SAY "YES" TO AND WHICH ONES TO SAY
"NO" TO.
WELL, IT MAY NOT BE MINISTRY FOR EVERYBODY, BUT EVERYBODY GOES
THROUGH THE SAME THING.
WHAT DO I SAY "YES" TO, WHAT DO I SAY "NO" TO?
AND THE APOSTLE PAUL CLEARLY SAID, "OUR YES SHOULD BE YES,
AND OUR NO SHOULD BE NO."
SO WE NEED TO SAY "YES" TO WHAT GOD'S SAYING "YES" TO, "NO" TO
WHAT HE'S SAYING "NO" TO.
BUT WHEN WE SAY "YES," WE NEED TO STICK TO IT.
KEEPING OUR WORD IS VERY IMPORTANT, OR AT LEAST GOING
BACK AND SAYING, "YOU KNOW WHAT?
I JUST MADE A MISTAKE IN COMMITTING TO THIS," BUT WE
CAN'T JUST IGNORE THE COMMITMENT.
BUT SHE SAID SOMETHING TO ME THAT I THOUGHT WAS VERY,
VERY WISE.
SHE SAID, "WHEN I'M ASKED TO GO DO SOMETHING," SHE SAID, "I TAKE
THE TIME TO REALLY THINK THROUGH EVERYTHING THAT'S GOING TO TAKE
FOR ME TO DO THAT."
NOW FOR US, BECAUSE IT INVOLVES TRAVEL, YOU KNOW, IT'S WISE TO
THINK THROUGH, OKAY, HOW LONG AM I GOING TO BE THERE, HOW LONG AM
I GONNA GET TO SPEAK?
HOW MUCH FRUIT IS THERE GONNA BE COMPARED TO THE AMOUNT OF EFFORT
THAT I PUT INTO IT?
I THINK ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE DO IN LIFE, NO MATTER WHAT
AREA OF LIFE YOU'RE LOOKING AT, IS WE SPEND A LOT OF TIME ON
STUFF THAT DOESN'T PRODUCE VERY MUCH IN OUR LIVES.
AND I THINK IT'S WISE TO START LOOKING AT IS THE TIME I'M
PUTTING INTO THIS WORTH WHAT I'M ACTUALLY REAPING OUT OF THIS IN
THE LONG RUN?
AND SO, YES, WHEN YOU'RE TIRED AND YOU'RE OVER-COMMITTED,
IT'S VERY HARD TO BE FAITHFUL TO SOMETHING.
SO I THINK A GOOD THING IS, IS TO ALWAYS TAKE A LITTLE
INVENTORY OF YOUR LIFE AND FIND OUT IF WHAT YOU ONCE WERE
COMMITTED TO DOING, IS THAT EVEN SOMETHING THAT YOU'RE SUPPOSED
TO KEEP DOING?
NOW, I'M NOT TALKING ABOUT NOT KEEPING YOUR WORD BUT I'M SAYING
THAT COMMITMENTS CHANGE, YOU KNOW?
I MEAN, OBVIOUSLY, A MARRIAGE COMMITMENT DOESN'T CHANGE,
YOUR COMMITMENT TO GOD DOESN'T CHANGE, BUT, YOU KNOW, JUST
EVEN, LIKE, IN MINISTRY, YOU KNOW, WE MAKE CHANGES IN OUR
MINISTRY ALL THE TIME BECAUSE WHAT WE WERE REALLY ADAMANT
ABOUT DOING 5 YEARS AGO, WE FIND IS NOT EXACTLY WHAT WE SHOULD BE
DOING NOW AND SO WE'RE ALWAYS UP FRONT.
WE GIVE EXPLANATIONS BUT I THINK MAYBE SHE JUST NEEDS TO RELOOK
AT HER WHOLE LIFE AND SEE WHAT SHE CAN REARRANGE 'CAUSE I DON'T
BELIEVE THAT GOD CALLS ANY OF US TO A LIFE THAT LEAVES US
MISERABLE AND EXHAUSTED ALL THE TIME.
GINGER: RIGHT.
SO JUST TO CLARIFY, WE'RE TO BE FAITHFUL IN OUR COMMITMENTS.
WE KEEP OUR WORD.
WE HAVE INTEGRITY.
BUT BEFORE WE OVER-EXTEND OURSELVES MOVING FORWARD,
WE NEED TO LOOK AT WHAT WE'RE SAYING "YES" TO.
JOYCE: AND IF YOU FIND THAT YOU JUST SAID "YES" TO SOMETHING
THAT YOU REALLY SHOULD NOT HAVE SAID "YES" TO, THEN I THINK YOU
CAN STILL CORRECT THAT BUT YOU GO BACK TO THE PERSON IN
HONESTY, RATHER THAN IGNORING IT, YOU GO BACK AND SAY,
"YOU KNOW WHAT?
I SAID I WOULD DO THIS BUT I JUST REALLY MADE A MISTAKE.
IT'S, LIKE, IT'S NOT WORKING FOR ME.
I SHOULD HAVE SAID 'NO' AND I DIDN'T."
YOU KNOW, SOMETIMES WE SAY "YES" TO THINGS BECAUSE WE DON'T WANT
PEOPLE TO GET MAD AT US, WE DON'T WANNA DISAPPOINT THEM.
AND I JUST FIND THAT WHEN YOU'RE HONEST WITH PEOPLE, THEY CAN
HANDLE A LOT OF STUFF.
BUT IF YOU JUST IGNORE COMMITMENTS THEN
THAT'S A PROBLEM.
GINGER: YEAH, ALL RIGHT, VERY HELPFUL.
THANK YOU.
THIS IS A GREAT QUESTION FROM THE UK: "HOW CAN I BE FAITHFUL
IN MY BIBLE READING AND PRAYER TIME WITHOUT BEING MOTIVATED BY
GUILT, OBLIGATION, OR EVEN SELFISH REASONS?"
JOYCE: WELL, I THINK THAT THERE'S NO REASON TO EVER FEEL
GUILTY ABOUT NOT STUDYING THE BIBLE BECAUSE WE'RE NOT
DOING IT FOR GOD.
I MEAN, HE GOT THAT ACROSS TO ME YEARS AGO.
HE WAS, LIKE, "STOP TRYING TO STUDY BECAUSE YOU THINK YOU'RE
DOING ME A FAVOR."
YOU KNOW, EVERYTHING THAT'S IN THE BIBLE IS SOMETHING THAT'S
GOING TO HELP US.
IT'S GONNA HELP US LIVE BETTER LIVES.
I MEAN, IT'S REALLY A GUIDE BOOK FOR LIFE.
SO WE GO--WE STUDY BECAUSE WE WANT TO.
I THINK THERE'S TOO MUCH "HAVE TO" THINKING IN OUR MINDS.
"I HAVE TO CLEAN MY HOUSE.
I HAVE TO GO TO THE GROCERY STORE.
I HAVE TO READ MY BIBLE.
I HAVE TO GO TO CHURCH."
WELL, WE REALLY DON'T HAVE TO DO ANY OF THAT.
WE DO IT BECAUSE THERE'S GONNA BE A GOOD RESULT.
NOW, I THINK PART OF HER QUESTION WAS HOW CAN I DO IT
WITHOUT HAVING A SELFISH MOTIVE.
I'M NOT 100% SURE WHAT SHE MEANS BUT IT'S NOT SELFISH TO
WANT GOD'S WILL IN YOUR LIFE.
AND IT'S NOT SELFISH TO WANT TO HAVE A GOOD LIFE.
AND SO I SPEND TIME DAILY IN THE WORD WHETHER IT'S READING OR
THINKING ABOUT PORTIONS OF THE WORD OR TALKING TO SOMEBODY
ELSE ABOUT THE WORD.
I DO IT ON A REGULAR BASIS, NUMBER ONE, BECAUSE GOD ASKED ME
TO AND I KNOW THAT ANYTHING HE ASKS ME TO DO IS ALWAYS GONNA BE
FOR MY BENEFIT.
AND NUMBER TWO, IT'S LIKE EATING FOOD.
YOU KNOW, THE WORD OF GOD IS WHAT KEEPS US STRONG
SPIRITUALLY.
JUST LIKE WE EAT FOOD TO STAY STRONG PHYSICALLY, WE NEED
THE WORD OF GOD TO STAY STRONG SPIRITUALLY.
AND THERE'S SO MUCH GOING ON IN THE WORLD TODAY, SO MANY
STRESSORS AND PRESSURES AND PROBLEMS AND THINGS THAT YOU
WEREN'T EXPECTING THAT YOU DON'T LIKE.
AND YOU CAN'T WAIT UNTIL YOU HAVE A PROBLEM AND THEN TRY TO,
"OOH, MAN, I'M GONNA GO GET STUDIED UP SO I CAN HANDLE
THIS."
THEN IT'S TOO LATE.
SO WE NEED TO--WE NEED TO STAY STRONG IN OUR LIFE.
AND THE WAY TO DO THAT IS TO HAVE A STEADY DIET OF
THE WORD OF GOD.
BUT FEELING GUILTY ABOUT NOT DOING IT, YOU DO IT BECAUSE YOU
NEED TO, NOT BECAUSE YOU'RE DOING GOD A FAVOR.
GINGER: YEAH, SO YOUR FAITHFULNESS IS IN HELPING SEE
YOUR OWN SPIRITUAL GROWTH, IT'S IN WHAT GOD WANTS FOR YOU.
IT'S NOT AN OBLIGATION.
JOYCE: YEAH, I NEED IT.
I MEAN, I NEED--YOU WOULD NOT LIKE ME WITHOUT THE WORD
EVERY DAY.
GINGER: ME EITHER, YEAH.
JOYCE: I NEED THE WORD EVERY SINGLE DAY OF MY LIFE.
SO I HOPE SOME OF THESE ANSWERS HAVE HELPED.
GINGER: VERY HELPFUL, THANK YOU.
JOYCE: WELL, TODAY WE'RE OFFERING YOU A BOOK THAT
I REALLY LOVE.
'COURSE, I LIKE ALL OF 'EM; I WOULDN'T WRITE 'EM IF I DIDN'T.
BUT "SEIZE THE DAY" IS A BOOK THAT I HAD ON MY HEART FOR QUITE
A WHILE TO WRITE AND THE REASON WHY IS BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE THAT
WE SPEND SO MUCH TIME, WASTED TIME, AND THAT WE--SOMETIMES,
YOU CAN JUST SPIN YOUR WHEELS DOING THE WRONG THING AND YOU
PUT OFF DOING THE RIGHT THING UNTIL IT'S TOO LATE TO EVEN
DO IT.
AND I DON'T WANT PEOPLE TO LIVE WITH REGRET.
I DON'T WANT MYSELF OR ANY OF YOU TO COME TO A PLACE IN YOUR
LIFE WHERE YOU LOOK BACK AND YOU SAY, "ALL I HAVE IS REGRET."
AND THE ONLY WAY THAT YOU CAN AVOID THAT IS IF YOU REALLY MAKE
EVERY DAY IN YOUR LIFE COUNT.
I THINK YOU REALLY WILL BENEFIT FROM THIS BOOK, AND IT COMES
WITH A STUDY GUIDE SO THAT MEANS YOU CAN DO YOUR OWN BIBLE.
YOU CAN START MAKING EVERY DAY OF YOUR LIFE COUNT AND YOU CAN
STOP WASTING YOUR TIME.
THANK YOU FOR BEING WITH US TODAY AND GOD BLESS YOU.

W2W - Avery Trufelman - Duration: 0:57.
I really seek solace in people.
Really what I am, I just listen to people
and I kind of synthesize
and weave their thought together.
It requires a kind of concentration,
which I guess is how you forget all your other troubles
and worries by just pouring yourself fully
into another person.
Everyone from like an interview subject to a friend
I'm just about to meet for drinks,
I get really nervous before seeing them.
I'm really excited about it,
but ultimately, I think, when I'm talking with someone
and they are opening up to me,
it's just my happiest state.
