OK, class, what have you learned today? We have started with politics. We went to health. And now we are going to finish it off nicely with a discussion with my king. Oh my gosh, I really hope you're enjoying the show, because we enjoy presenting it to you at WhiteFive on Facebook, at White254Channel on Twitter. Hashtag is white in the morning. Now let me introduce my people first. Hi, people. Hi. How are you? Today I would like to start with the queen. Hi, queen. You look very nice. Thank you so much. Is this your first time on TV? Yeah. It's OK. We got you. What's your good name? Nerea Musungu. Nice to meet you, Nerea. Where was I? What is your good name, sir? Rai Laopan. What's your name? Rai Laopan, my name is Musungu. What's your name? Janaita Musungu. What's your name? Janaita Musungu, my name is Janaita Musungu. And I work in the state of Nerea Musungu. I am a memelod, Hispanic. Yeah, it's nothing that I put that is not supposed to be there. So how are you? I'm fine. Thank you. You look ready to converse. Yeah. We are even on standby position. What do they call you out here? Thank you. My name is Zulu Benjamin, my psychologist. All right, Karibusana. And I would like to start off with you guys, because you are the reason we are here, OK? So we'd like to show you a couple of comments on our social media handles. Let's start with Facebook. Remember, at Y254 on Facebook, at Y254, turn on Twitter, hashtag is Y in the morning. Just get off with it. As my directors and producers, I'll work on that. Maybe I can introduce a topic to you. It's dealing with grief. Now, Leotman Castoria de Matthew, I may pass condolences to your family. And I don't know if... I don't want to say we predicted something would happen, but it was intentional that today we would talk about grief. What do you think grief is? Grief, it depends on how you define it, but grief is broad. But basically, according to me, it's when you mourn. You mourn somebody, you lose someone, and therefore, you're in that situation of mourning. What do you think grief is, Queen? Grief, to me, is just losing someone, that, yeah, in the mourning process. So I have a special question. My wisdom, I wanted to cover a couple of things under that umbrella of grief. And I realized the definition that I read of grief, it's that it is a reaction to loss. And I realized that loss is not just having someone pass away. Losses can be divorced. Loss can be having a miscarriage. Put heartbreak there. Hey, wait, wait. Do not encourage these ones to start saying it, now heartbreak, they're grieving their mourning. But it is part of loss. You can be fired from your job, that's loss, you know. And I really like to cover that, because in that sense, at least the Kenyans watching us, or abroad on the 376th channel, DSTV, can relate with us. It's not just for the grief's tricking. Yeah, is it okay to say that? That's very true. You want to study that, or I tell you first? Tell me first. Thank you for broadening it, because I wanted to highlight that to us. Part of why we are overwhelmed when we lose through death is because we have not learned to deal with the small losses of life. When you lose a hope for, I took an interview in a job, I was really hoping to get it. When I learned I did not get it, that was a loss. I lost a hope, I did not lose a job. I lost an opportunity I was hoping for. If you learn to process more losses, you approach a lady, and you turn down. I don't want to be that part of loss. When you learn to be overwhelmed. Oh, yeah. Come on, let's go. He's coming. Welcome to the crowd, please. So, Atee, let's introduce people to the idea that loss is part of life. Life itself is motion. This is coming, this is going.  They say that the only constant thing in life is change itself. I want today to bring changes in, coming and going, getting and losing.  So, I see my very able team is ready. Shout out to this and Mr. Mardo. All right, so we have Vanessa Ambani. For me, it's painful and still hurting.  I have money and values her marriage to the man she married than me. Oh, I'm so sorry, thank you for sharing. Dame H. Town says, hashtag when the morning for me. This is the hardest topic ever. And she says, yes, I wouldn't want, I wouldn't wish anyone to undergo all that, but hey, that's life. The hurt is inevitable. And this is very, very true. Jay Moe, Jay says, hashtag when the morning. Present, present from Mary Vow, good morning. Good morning, Jay Moe. They got for me those guys over there. Ms. Salimiwa. Meanwhile, to me, it's so hurting. I have nothing to add on this. Oh, they have Daniel Ortiz, all this. It's a serious matter, especially when it comes to dealing with rejection, pain and loss to the boy child. Aye, boy child. I've had conversation with boy children because of how the society has wired them to think. They tend to keep a lot of themselves so as to appear strong while they are slowly dying inside. Maybe we should start with this even point, this point right here. Thank you, Daniel Ortiz, all this. We appreciate you. Any other comment, please don't be afraid. What if I found Facebook, what if I found channel Twitter, hashtag is what in the morning? Tell me about the boy child struggles. No, clearly. Manome ni kuji kaza ki? Manome ni kuji kaza ni clearly, but yeah, it's true that to some extent we do keep most of the secrets for ourselves. It's for people to see that we are strong, especially to the first borns, first borns on homie.  So it's happening to some extent. So in a BD, wukande tundan is what you mean, so that at least you smile. You smile at all the two anyway. If he's keep, you know, he's going, then what about me? That is why I tell people that find a reason to keep going. Have you ever experienced a situation where they tell you, silly, be strong? No, I've never experienced that, but I've seen males being told that, because in this society, how they are presumed, they've been told to like, you should maintain a strong face. Yeah. So if you saw a guy crying, you take a picture locally, then send to your friends, on any way, why is this one crying? It's a social media, yeah. You don't have to do anything, you just have to do what you want to do.  It's not something good. You don't have to cry. I had a very bad experience over the weekend, I can't talk about it now. But it's okay to cry. You don't have to cry. I'm happy we helped the guy. Kindly. I'll just reach out to the video, I just had the idea, wake up 30 seconds and you lose life. You know, it's painful. So let's weigh the best thing for us. Okay, let's start off with the slides, and then, sir, you can come in, Dr. Tariq. So we have dealing with grief and loss. So grief, we attempted to define what grief and loss is. So grief is a reaction to any form of loss. Grief is a reaction to any form of loss, and loss is a permanent separation. For example, death of a loved one. I don't want to be a death of a pet. Someone losing their pet is...  You don't know how you are losing a job. We have divorce. We have miscarriages. And this one was quite sensitive, but I decided to put it there anyway, and Dr. Tariq wants you to touch on it, abortions. We have being conned. You're being out here on the streets, and you have retirement.  So we started abortions. Do you think it's right to say that it's a loss? And you can start a grief? You're talking about abortions? Yes, I wanted to start with that one. Yeah, many times, because of the already abused, it's not miscarriage. If it's miscarriage, we're assuming it's coming from causes, you know? There was no choice. It just came to an end. That we can see is naturally a loss. And men don't understand it because the baby was not yet here. So why are you sad? That's it. But they don't know that connection begins from conception, that mothers begin to feel the connection from even that early. Now, abortion has other factors. What pushed you to eat? Many people come to us as psychologists regretting.  And she aborted when they tell us, I think, second trimester or something. And when Akiyonam totu ambaya and a kama and a kakilit, mine would be resolved. So it's a loss. But in abortion, there are other factors. She starts regretting, who pushed me to eat. I would rather say, let miscarriage be the one we are putting because abortion will have many other factors we have to look at. But places like South Africa, because it's illegal, it's allowed, they have posters there. We have to do it deeply. You know, right there, you're seeing posters in Kenya because it's not yet allowed. So it's true, even if the baby was not yet here, there was a connection and there was a hope.  There was already a connection. There's something else I've mentioned here. Being conned. When you're conned, there are two things. You feel out of control. You feel like you're being robbed, but it was robbing that involves... Why is it called a robbery? They are just talking nice things, but kumbe, they are robbing you. The East brain, the day I graduated, somebody conned me in a very, you know... What happened? That was sharp. I was also not conned to you, but we also respected their brains. Wow. It was not a lot of money. It was 500, not my money back, my mums. If you are crossing, from your own, we're just crossing and we're in gowns, you know, people are with their families. Then, there's your traffic, just this road here, I think the university way of something, just near the roundabout. Then he's slowing, I love when I tell him, he's like, hey, man, we're going to graduate, congratulations. But no one's here. What do you want me to do? You know, I'm not here for you.  Kumbe, that's not fake. No, I'm not here for that. Oh, my God. That was very fast and then witty. I respected the conment. Oh, my God. You're not here for what you want. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. You're not here for what you want. You're not here for what you want. Acya, if so, we are going to give you a ride. If only you were here, in fact, I'm sure after that I'll go and get a ride the next day. I imagine he was doing this around the town in several people. That's what I imagine. Oh, he just loitered, he just clicked. I don't have time to check if I'm going to do anything. But the time you check, he is gone. He will not understand. He will not understand. Feel free to open up.  Then you went to the budget, but suddenly they decide since they can see you look like you have money, they are going to charge you extra. Do you feel like you have been caught? Yes, it has happened a lot actually. How does that make you feel? It makes me feel like I can't trust this person again. They are just exploiting me. And here trying to grow their business by coming to them. Oh even once, you meet a boy child feeling nice looking, handsome. He has... No, no. So he sues you and you are going to the box. What are you talking about? Let me tell you this. I will tell you this. I will tell you this. The boy day one, day two you are going to train him out. I love him in the process of continuing. So what happens to him? So that's... What are you trying to bring up? When you say it boy and up in this box? I am trying to say that there is a way there is a way that a certain type of guys they can make you feel very special only because they want to use you. Not necessarily for any sexual intentions. They just want you for your money or just they want to be seen with you.  How does that make you feel when you realize the intentions were ill? Well it makes me feel used because he is seeing me as something like an object and by that by him doing that I will definitely put him in a position where he will become a liability. I won't let him use me that way. We see that's another loss.  What do you want to say? You have suffered losses. We mentioned it last time and we need to mention this again. Now that today we are talking about losses there are some losses we can avoid and we are learning ahead. Like today I will not accept quick transactions because I was going that way. They say that experience teaches fools but some folks will not learn any other way and I think I was one of those folks who were to learn the rule of loss. I am happy I lost a small magnitude so that I can prevent a bigger magnitude. You know how we immunize our disease? We inject two of the virus of the real disease. But in a weekend to teach your body how the real thing looks like so that they can prepare defences. First year when you fall over heels and head in love and you post them all over social media and you are preparing a loss and you are making it bigger. You are setting a table. You are setting a table. You are setting a table. You are setting a table. You are setting a table. You are declaring a territory to a lady. When she quits you will come back and tell us that guy left. Now I am here. So some losses are self inflicted. Grow up. When you come to the university take those relationships and experiments. This is my girl. This is my girl. It's true. When I give you my title deep that you will not even feel the thing when you lose it. I understand. But what happens is let's assume now she is coming to Nairobi to study for the first time. Where are you from? Where are you from? You are from the losses. You are preparing for losses. So imagine there is a freshness when you are from a place that people consider backwards. And I can compare it to when you are coming from a third world country going to a second world. It feels exactly like that.  You are confused. You are confused. You want to take pictures everywhere. You want to look at everything like this. You want to look like everyone else. Three people have exited your life. It's cool and uniform. And you are the most constrain in the world. You know?  You know? You have to be happy. You know what I mean? Sometimes you don't even hug boys. You can hug with your eyebrows. You can enjoy it. It's not a big deal. Because you have to hug people. You know what I mean? I know where I was thinking. Okay. Let me finish by taking a picture of her. So she is from Nairobi. She is very innocent. Very innocent. And I would like to say naive. Because it's close to innocence. She is very innocent. You are not innocent. Anyway. To be continued at a later date time. Let us focus here. So what happens if she is taken advantage of?  She has her own education. She has her own background. But she just doesn't know what happens in this side of the world. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Sometimes you may just be you want to be knowledgeable but it's also bad to be ignorant. So at least be aware of the toughness of your thoughts. How fresh are you in the 4th year?  How can she make herself less of a target? Let's say that. This loss is that first years in campus. I used to live as a bash in Form 4. That's usually the first taste of bash. Now I am very excited. Now I am in the future. If I have any information, I will tell you. When the reverse bash. happens, you know, and then that took a lot. Let me announce something. Especially the first real heartbreak. It eats them so badly after that heartbreak. They lose faith in trusting and they lose faith in love. They lose faith in relationships. If you talk to them, they will say, you are wrong. You are wrong. You are wrong. And you will see that she is a Centerbot. She was saying that she grew up in a Centerbot. So you will see that she is a Centerbot. Now you can see the consequences. Some of this losses are present on mobile. Let's tell these girls how. When you come to the University, They will tell you, come out with 2 degrees. The bachelor is a guy. I would not tell That is better. Human knowledge. Teach yourself social skills. Learn to tell cons, emotional cons.  Don't go all the way. I think you have told your girls, it's my wedding card, are you coming? I'm shopping for gowns. You've vanished into the money. It happened at a paper home place. You've vanished into the money. The guys have taken con man game to another level. Money. We are learning in Kenya, so what do we do? What do you expect? We'll ask the government to give us money.  Especially, that's why you've got to get married. Uh-huh. What's the target for? It's flurry. Hey, what's the target for? Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.  If you don't have a laugh, you'll be like, some talk amnesty, is that your biological clock? Oh my God. Oh my God. So, I think we've got friends. Let's tell our queen here. Me and the king, we can announce to them, many times in these heartbreaks, there are men who also suffer badly, but the larger percentage of victims of newly inflicted losses is the lady. Yeah, and they're preventable. All right, so we have a couple of slides, and we will get to that tool. So there are five stages of grief, and here we go. So we start with denial. Denial. See, denial, denial, denial. I'm not sure what. No, no, no, this is a different kind of, the 11th, yeah, 11th commandment. Denial is the first state of grief. So, denial and, ah-huh. I don't know. So wait, wait now. Denial, so denial and isolation is we block out the words and hide from the facts. We start to believe that life is meaningless and nothing is of value any longer. The first time someone ever, I learned, I don't want to say someone ever died that I knew. I'm sure I'm a biter now or to, now I'm a pass, but the first time it was ever very personal to me. Niliyamka, alafo, to quote me on a project promotion. So Nikwan meme, to me, I like it. Just that night before, Nidoniyamke, Nifanyi Angus, so I wake up to a WhatsApp message that Naniyamka over. But ever since then, I'm not allowed to say I'm a flight mode. I don't. I'm not safe as I find out. You have complicated grief. I don't allow. Woo, woo, woo. Okay, don't, don't, not now, later, later. But I, so, the first, my first reaction is Niliympige asimu. Nidoniyambe asiukue li. But of course, siya li kome pass. But Niliympige, like I know, I called him for the whole day. Nidoniyamke, maybe, akobizi, maybe simu imaputia. Maybe, maybe, maybe. Kablai sync, Nidoniyambe, okay. Nyeue, isimu haipukewi, like nidkama ime rap. So now that's the first stage denial. How do you deal with that? How do you even know what's going on? Cause I didn't know what was going on. I had a similar case, I called a classmate who was always helping with the work. So I was just, we were just finalizing it. We only got jammed, and finalized it to me. So, the bigger, you know, it was another voice, the daughter. Telling me, sorry, ma'am, it's not well.  By then, she'd already passed. But she knew not to draw it like that. To prepare you things are not good, and we'll update you. The way to deal with that is first of all, to know that. We started by saying, accept that some of these things, you will hear them during your lifetime. Jyandae mape ma kablauske, that shocking news of death will reach you. Sometimes it's the end of the road, sudden things, and all that. But the next thing we are saying is, give, allow you to feel the pain. Stop running away from it. Don't run away from it. Don't run away from it.  You're going to get hurt. You're going to get hurt. I want to first read of the symptoms. Okay, so we have the symptoms of the first denial. This is intense sadness and emotional pain, feeling of complete hopelessness, and yearning for a reunion. Now, yes, we've started with death. That was the first loss. But now let's go on to something of the sorts or along the lines of losing your job. I'm on my way to work. I work and eat breakfast at the market. I'm going to eat salad in the morning, and next month, I'll maybe eat a pot of rice and I'll go to school.  The first one is denial. How, how, how would you deal with such a thing? Laila, imagine something you put so much effort into. Say I defaulted. Say I defaulted, and I'm a faulted employer. So it's an economy. Okay. For me, I've never experienced that because I was the best candidate so far. By then, I was the best candidate. When I was interviewing, I knew that my papers were the best. But when I was in Kenya, at some age, I realized that tribalism is real. So, in the end, I did the best according to me and some few guys were there. But at the end of the day, when the list came out, I didn't know who I was. Yeah, but to me, that was a learning point because that job was to be done for three weeks. No, two weeks. So, I learnt and I've always worked on the weaknesses and the challenges I was told and the reasons why I was not given that job. So, to some extent, the way Dr. Lee said is that when there are some things that life teaches you that today this one comes and tomorrow another one goes and you have to deal with it as a human being. Can you relate, Mummy? Yeah. How? I also have ever lost a job but yeah, it's not something that will stop you. At the end of the day, it's going to hurt you but you just have to accept and move on. You guys are saying it very professionally. I want the feelings that were there.  From the moment that you learnt what was going on to the point that you use a word next, especially if maybe you didn't have something else to fall back on. How did you manage? How did you get yourself up and say, OK, anyway, it's in your life too? Yes. Can you walk me through it? Yeah.  Did you tell your friends immediately? No, I didn't even tell them. You say, I'm not good enough. And it's nothing you did.  So, why are you looking at me like that, Doctor? You've had two points of view. And I like that both ended with, it's OK. Things come and things go. But what happens? One of my most crushing defeats of that type was a scholarship I was expecting. I pursued my PhD and applied to some guys they got. I applied a second time. I was expecting, this time I'll get. I was, many factors were favouring me. Among the male, I was almost the only guy from my cohort to apply. So, we had anticipated that I would miss first time, second time, that matter. And then, when you're waiting that much and it's where you're hoping our school fees is quite unamount. You need that kind of assistance to be able to pull it through.  You get a sinking feeling. Some heaviness.  You're on the other side but you're sliding. There before you were OK. But then when I got down I started praying there. Instead of crashing here. She said, I'm going to eat here in a praying position. You can actually convert a cry into a prayer. If you adopt a praying position. The worst post is you to your knees, you might as well just.  It's what it looks like prayer. But on the same day, at around the same time, the girl I had requested to marry me said yes. Amen. So, at least one side. I can say one way to deal with the loss is to calculate what you're getting. Oh ho! I like that. I thought I lost that scholarship. I got a lifetime sponsorship through a wife. I know this one will be with me. Emotionally stand with me and we shall manage it. OK. When I come over to help her, it will be a buffer. So, we have the second one. We now need to go a little bit faster because they're telling me time is running out a bit. The intense emotions is step two of the dealing with grief. Intense emotion is deflected from vulnerability. The anger may be aimed at yourself, at God or higher deity, inanimate objects, complete strangers, friends or family.  Hi, are you OK? What's wrong with you? Why are you talking to me? They just go off, off for no reason. Or you have other people who now deal with anger by crying. They'll just start crying and you don't know what to do. What's wrong with this one? What do I do? Panic, panic, panic. So, we have here the symptoms are getting intensely angry over small things. Ha! Bari. I'm not going to say I'm going to get angry. For some reason, I'm getting agitated. I'm going to remove the whole atmosphere. Thank you. I wanted to say I'm going to get angry. Why am I saying I'm going to get angry? Condas is a kite to not change. It's an Olympia Thao. It's a suit of rouga and it's very comfortable. For no reason. Like you have your own internship problems, but you don't really know how to communicate it. Then you have crying impulsively. Have you ever experienced that, Queen? You have? Tell me the story. Yeah, crying, especially when you lose someone. You feel like, why did it happen to him? Now that's when the anger kicks in. You like trying remembering that the times you were with him and you didn't do certain things, but you shouldn't have to like regret. So like when it happened to me, I cried for like even like three days straight. It was so hearty. For me, I would like to tell my guys that what happens with me, I don't post on the status. Yeah, that is what most of the youths do. And I post to my friends. I post to my friends. I post to my boyfriend. I post to my friends. I post to my friends. And from that, people will learn, they will judge you. So for me, what I do is simple. I just go to my house, cry, and then cry. And then, you know, I'm a man, but there are some things that you don't need to do and you know, expose. So I say at the end of the day, that's the best solution you can never get. That's the best solution you can never get. I'll never use it again. I'll never use it again. It will always be the same with you. Taka, taka, taka, taka. No, that was wrong way. But when the a prior for the song, takataka came out, I was thankful for one thing, that this young guy, instead of going to harm this girl, you know, instead of going to physically abuse her Emotionally or psychologically harm her to her face You may think that she is a woman, but you are still acknowledging that she is a woman Yes, she is a woman, because I think she is a woman But I like where she took it Comparing with the guy who drives the Toyota Red, she is a woman Yes, she is a woman We are at the end of the studio, the song is blowing, she is going to pay She is going to burn, it's a story You know, everyone is still alive and everyone is still healthy and happy But as a teacher of young men, I tell you, that was still not healthy It's true He is still blasted in the wrong way Actually, the lady was still having a lot of power over him By the time you go to record her song to insult me, you are still affected by me The best way to react when you are offended by people is to process it personally But show them a blank screen, act unaffected Indifference is the best revenge Revenge is the best when served cold Don't take any action, don't show me I affected you Because I still have influence But if you are a woman, you will not be able to understand what I am saying That's right The next lady will not date him, because I will not be able to understand what she is saying Oh That's what the boy did not think You are announcing to ladies that you are not trustworthy Okay, so now we are just going to read through this depression, another stage And this is, it is our quiet preparation to separate from the thing that has been lost So this can be confused, look at why you look at me like that Correct us, correct us, this is research that has been done This is the advanced stage of depression where you are preparing to separate But the real depression means a state of being depleted When a depression is just like, you even say there is a depression on earth It's a state of being depleted You are too much and demanded, has been demanded from you that you no longer have any more to offer When the pain is so exhausting and you cannot, when you are depressed you no longer cry The tears are gone, you stop feeling You cannot get out of bed I say I feel nothing They can't move from bed, you don't want to talk to anyone You are there, you are trying to binge watch things but you are not really seeing anything You are just there Now that's depression You are just depleted, energy is gone Okay So the next one is acceptance Are we right? So the next one is acceptance Not everyone who experiences, this is very important Not everyone who experiences grief or loss or end-loss reaches this stage And that's very sad Except when you are trying to understand this and all that They just do not process a loss They are disappointed at God and religion and society And you always say if you really don't believe there is God He is a lecturer and he is talking about God throughout the lesson If you don't believe there is a snake, why are you talking about snakes so much?  How do I remove it?  Why? We can finish What you will know is that women are married Until they die, until they are 90 They can be married, be married, be married When I saw my grand mom And I remember her My grand father died in 2005, 2012 She was born in 2012 And I remember her She was born in 2012 So, we have to look at Stevo and show her She is a woman She is a woman Life is longer than what you see Life is deeper Yes, because if you live in a soga You just drop it, not a tattoo Guys, we have reached the end of our time But we have Liam Hezbollah's Grief is Universal I believe time is a key component in healing Allow yourself to grieve, face the better truth It happened, move on It doesn't seem easy as it sounds They say by their time is the best healer But I don't think time heals anything. You just... It has nothing to do with healing. Wow, Konaia Coins is watching from Naivasha. Alright, we see you. Boy child. Hey, boy child. What are you doing, boy child?

And notice up here where it does say print, but then it says well where do you want to print so you have to give it a destination so to print it I would have to click my printer but I don't want to print this. Instead click right here and then click save as PDF. Okay, so did everybody see that that's right here. So depending on what printer you have set up if you don't have a printer. Just make sure to click on the first line the arrow right here save as PDF and then of course click save at the bottom here. If you don't click save on the bottom here it won't actually save. So just click save. And then it will tell you guys or it will ask you guys where you want to save it so that's up to you. You could save it to your desktop to your downloads folder wherever you want and then you would just simply email me that file. So when you email me your practice profile, I can see your practice profile in the PDF converted version. So that way I see everything perfectly. If you try to take screenshots, it just takes too much time. And quite often the quality isn't all there so I can't see your practice profile anyway. So that's the easiest way to do it. If you guys have any questions, let me know if you're looking for me to review your practice profile. I am still doing them. Happy New Year by the way it's January 1 today. You do have to submit by the end of January so get them into me now it does take me a few days to review the whole thing because I go through everything with a fine tooth comb and make sure you have answered things correctly. If I'm confused about something then the CDHO will be confused as well. So then I just simply write up a full report for you with suggestions that I will suggest you make before you submit your practice profile. If you don't change anything of course I just simply write up a full report with what I feel might need to be changed or what should be changed for you to hopefully pass your audit. So let me know you guys if you have any questions, I look forward to looking at your practice profiles I'll leave the link for you guys on the bottom if you want me to review that for you. I am still doing them so now is the time though to get them in because the more I get in it just simply takes longer so currently it's taking about four days for me to review your practice profile. So get them in now and I will send them your way so you can feel confident you will pass your audit hopefully. Okay, thank you guys have a good day and Happy New Year.


Because that's the part that you just got to understand, like, okay, you might be doing 30% more of the weight, but if now 30% of the load is being carried by the muscle that you weren't trying to work out. Oh, it does increase the risk of the exercise. Yeah. Now you're developing an area that you weren't focusing on. So that's the reason why I think there's certain exercises that lend themselves well for lighter weight. Yeah, I think overall understanding when it's appropriate to go heavy when it's appropriate to go light is one of the most important things you can learn about how to train your body. When you can really understand this, then you can maximize your exercises and your workout and minimize your risk injury and just get the best results.


Okay, so we're here with another episode of the four faces journal the four faces For those that don't know is a stencil In my Etsy shop that I've created as a guide for making faces in your art journals. It's not a very big stencil I do have larger faces in my Etsy shop larger face stencils that could be used in a similar fashion This one was purposefully created for smaller journals, which I love to work in If the demand is high enough at some point I may make these in a larger size, but right now I already have large faces I'll link my Etsy shop in the description below Anyway, I have a bunch of these stencils with four designs on them And they're created so that you get hopefully more bang for your buck But also so that you can cut them apart I like to take some of my art supplies with me traveling among other things and I find that if I have smaller Stencils they're easier to pack. I also enjoy working on small in small journals So I find that the little stencils are work great in that We've already done in episode one. We did this one and this one and Then in episode two we did this one Which I almost messed up and then now we're going to do another one So I have this idea of experimenting with one of the spaces stencils a white crayon and Some paint maybe molding paste. I don't know yet. I have it here I don't know. Let's see what happens. So first. I think I'm going to put my reading glasses on and then I'm going to color in the stencil with the white crayon in All the spaces. I'm gonna kind of be heavy-handed with the crayon. I've got my Piece of acrylic underneath the page to give it some stability This is it, you know, just a kid's crayon. It's nothing nothing special When you do use waxy things on your stencils, that's probably the one time I'm going to tell you that you need to clean your stencil I'm not great about cleaning my stencils like ever if you look at my stencil collection It's pretty grungy unless I've been using waxy things or mediums on my stencils Because it clogs up the bits of your stencils. So there we go Okay, so now I'm going to get my little brush in Brush off the excess. I don't know how well that worked.  Think I'm going to use this one which is deck by deck of works called see aqua Why I don't know just because it's there Get a little bit of that Some water It's a craft paint. So it shouldn't take too much to water it down. It's a not a heavy body It's a thinner paint to begin with so But I want something that's sort of inky ish I have no idea if this is going to work I haven't experimented with this before but the theory behind it is that the waxy parts Should stay white or fairly white and where the paint goes will get absorbed into the paper in theory We'll find out if it doesn't work. We'll try something else baby white I don't want to rub too much because I don't want to rub the wax off necessarily at least not at the moment So we want to dry this Whoops, and it turned the power on hold on The wax is sort of melted into the page like embossing powder, which is actually kind of cool Where's that white crayon? So the stencils are intended to be used as a guide as I've said before Suggestion of where to put your features on your faces For those of you who are nervous about doing faces or are unfamiliar with the process of doing faces This is to give you Some guidance We are going to take our pilot varsity pen again, which we've used before It's one of my favorite sketching pens I like to suggest my shapes more than Be too realistic about things. That's not my style It doesn't make me happy to do super realism or anything and to be honest, I'm not very good at it So take the brush actually this time. I think I'm going to take a smaller brush Yeah, here's one of the smaller point on it This is the pilot varsity is water soluble Remember, we've got some of that wax on there too. So it's not going to Take the ink Zoom in so you can see what I mean It's bubbling up where the wax is at and where it's just raw paper It's soaking in Okay, I don't know where the camera left off. No idea, but I have using this colored mechanical pencil by pilot In a dark violet color By the way, my camera ran out of battery power. So I'm adding this to the places where The ink from the pilot varsity pen added some shadow. I'm adding some of this ink some of this purple pencil Okay, and then try My uniball signal. I have a love-hate relationship with the uniball signal Just like the big pen. It seems to be working at the moment. Okay Now the uniball signal is gonna not want to write over the wax So it's going to skip Where it's waxy from either the purple pencil or the crayon But I'm just using it to help me With some of the highlights. I like that. So there you go. There's another face in our four faces journal We're gonna keep going and I think next we might try some collage So stay tuned. I hope you're enjoying the series and I hope you're enjoying making faces with me And we'll see what we can get up to next if there are any materials Or techniques you want me to try in here making faces with or without the stencils. Let me know And um, we'll work on that. All right. That's it for today Don't forget to check out the video description for any relevant links including my social media My happy mail address where to get your own stencils from my collection And all of that stuff Check it out. Leave any questions comments or concerns down below And um and or suggestions for techniques you'd like to work on on faces And uh, that's it for today. Go out and have a great day. Do something nice for yourself because you deserve it And I'll see you later. Bye guys

So recently in a lot of my twitch live streams I've had people coming in thanking me for teaching them how to build computers used with secondhand parts and then flipping them to make Some money as a second source of income, but I've also had people saying they've gone out bought parts brought them back Only to find out that they've been scammed now when you're buying secondhand parts It's usually a risk no matter what part you go with because you don't know what's happened to that part before But of all the risks you take the biggest one is by far the graphics card because in any computer budget The graphics card will always cost you the most amount of money now There are a few different ways that a graphics card can be broken most of which can actually be repaired and actually give you a brief Overview of how it could be broken I'm gonna have my friend Chris from coalition gave me explain it to you really quickly because like I've said before in the channel He's by far one of the smartest people that I've ever met when it comes to fixing what is wrong with your PC So if you bought a graphics card secondhand and you're experiencing issues There's always a few things you can try to get that graphics card working First thing is inspect the card closely take the cooler off the card and look for signs of burning dark spots or discolored areas This can signify heat or voltage damage while you're here also look for signs of bulging or leaking capacitors The capacitor thing isn't all that likely admittedly Second the card could have been out and sitting for some time before you bought it The PCIe fingers or contacts could get dirty causing them to make a bad connection to the PCIe slot and contributing to the issues Simple trick here is to take a pink pencil eraser and rub it along the PCIe fingers of the graphics card Which cleans those contacts clear off the leftover eraser bits. Thank you for another shot Third it could be something as simple as trying different video outputs of the graphics card Because sometimes some of the outputs just work better than others. Lastly the card could have come from a miner You don't know and if it came from a miner Well, they customize the v-biles of the graphics card and it might appear stock But go ahead and flash the v-biles the stock v-biles back to the card The tech power-up GPU v-biles database will be able to help you with that So anyways here in town There was a guy who was complaining about a GTX 1070 Which if you don't know is still a pretty nice card to have in a gaming system Used use typically see them go for around $200 and he said just bought it for 150 off a guy On let go seems to be a dead card if you can fix it Let me know or please buy it off me So i'm not out of this money with what's going on right now open to any offers won't give her for free though So i reached out to him and he is willing to sell us the card for a whopping total of $30 So we're actually gonna go drive down right now pick up this card and see if we can figure out what's wrong with it Back into the creepy Chinatown alley we go Hey, how's it going? So I'm i'm interested in trying to fix this thing first So can you tell me any details about this thing? Um, so I literally picked it up Yesterday or the day before off a guy Like the middle of town right or something. He's like, yeah, it's working all that. I didn't have time to test it I usually have a system. I could bring or something but I didn't okay. So like, okay, you sell computers. Maybe maybe it'll work I should trust it and like I checked the pins on the PCI stuff. It looks all good Plug it in try and boot it up plug in power all that and it doesn't turn off Do you mind if I take a look? Oh, yeah, I'm here. I just can't help think Which reseller did you get this from if you don't mind me asking? I I've seen his stuff, okay We're fans. Oh say I appreciate it You're awesome. You're actually one of the main reasons I got into pc flipping. Well, I'm so sorry then because I'm one of the reasons you just got scared I've got scams quite a few times actually primarily motherboards Like three motherboards by now two graphics cards. Probably that one's like third graphics card Maybe four I remember like two five eighties Well, the the one thing that will definitely happen is the more it happens to you the more you realize like this is not gonna work You just start getting a sixth sense for it. Okay. Yeah, we've got through quite a few though. It's been pretty good Let me let me fix this I want I there's just no way this is not fixable Worst-case scenario. I'm gonna throw it into the oven. All right, great to see you guys later Have a good rest of the day. Okay, so we are back with the broken card and we need to give Chris a call So we can try to figure out what is wrong with this thing That's you and now I need to try and speak your story. Okay, so What do we need to do first? Have you already tried it in the system to see if you're getting displayed? No, let's try that No, it's modular. Please. Tell me I have another power cable. Please don't tell me I did this to myself. Oh my god Okay, no, no, I'm looking through the modular power supply bag right now. I'm using a different power supply A different cable from a different company. It's fine. It's gonna work just fine. That's risky, bro No Never it'll work. I think this is an ebg ebg and Oh, wait, these are all ebg cables. We know this is perfect. See it's just a different power supply same company same brand It's all gonna work just fine So what does that mean? It went and then and then it stopped working. I smell smoke. Chris. I smell smoke Chris, I sell smoke. Chris. Something's on It's both from ebg a let's let's see. How dead can it be? That smells burnt. That's burnt It smells bad, dude. Oh, yeah Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah That's a nice little burned part right there. Do you think it's the entire system or just a car that's fried now? It would probably just a card put the other one back in and see if it turns on It lives Okay, not all this bad Just, you know, the fried graphics card might be permanently fried We're not sure it is fully dead though True. So what do I what do we do next? In my experience with graphics cards that don't have the right power cables plugged into them It'll pop up a screen on the computer if it does give a display out saying power cables plugged in incorrectly So if you just plug in the one that you know that works We'll see if the system powers on with it Okay, I heard a shock the fans spinning on the graphics card the fans are not spinning Chris Don't lie to me Chris. Do you think this do you think this is gone? Okay, all right Well, oh wait, I see smoke Again, what from the graphics card? No from the motherboard this time from the PCIe slot No From this little heatsink thing. Okay, did you see that flash of light? Yeah, I did Yeah I needed this pc This thing's cursed dude. Let me see what happens if I Take it out Hey, there you go, buddy. It's the graphics do this thing is cursed card is cursed. No, but okay Here's my serious question like as of as of everything you've seen now. What do you think? Well the common Uh denominator here is the graphics card. So the graphics card you stop burn or smoke from the connector's Graphs card we moved it into another system Then the then the system smoked again this time from somewhere else, but still the common denominator is the graphics card. So at this point There's only like i'm about 90 percent sure something is up at the graphics card There could have been a power surge that damaged it The power circuit could be bad on it. So somehow the only thing now if you wanted to keep trying it Is if you have if you have a throw away system a throw away system Yep, because I wouldn't want to keep telling you to risk risk more stuff. I have some new parts. Let's test it again Okay, it's on fans are spinning There you go. Okay. Okay. Okay. So this is a working system now So because the system works We should we can try the 10 70 in here and see if it'll work I'm just ready to see like the face of Satan's just pop up on this thing All right, here we go It's a it did it did a little And then I heard it Yeah, it just It just gives a little to and then it doesn't go All right, put the other graphics card back in.  I'm missing There you are. Okay I don't know. I mean so So take this out put in the other graphics card just to make sure Yeah, you need to make sure you didn't kill anything Oh It spins So and the graphics card spinning too and last we checked if we plug it in Just almost put my finger in the blade. That would have been fun. Yeah, so just look All right Oh man, I'm so mad at myself If I the thing is my room is such a mess that I didn't look around to see if I had another Another system lying around that would still be fun But I'm more I'm more than likely find this card so we couldn't see what would have done beforehand Well, I feel kind of bad today's the day I'm supposed to meet up with this guy because I told him that if I could Fix the card I would give it back to him and then at the end of the day all he's taken with me is a $30 risk So Just go down and meet him. All right.  Well As he drives away with his brand new card Which I would have shown the process of earlier, but my phone stopped recording last night And this is partially the reason why I look like a homeless person right now than the fact that there are no barber shops open I went out and bought a gtx 1070 the only one that was available in vegas past midnight And I swapped the cards the reason I did that is because building computers And this youtube channel and the twitch streams and everything that has come with this has completely changed my life If it wasn't for this then I wouldn't have been able to pay for Anything when I came to my dad's medical bills I don't know if many of you people know this but chemotherapy treatments experimental treatments insurance issues all of that is so fucking expensive And none of that would have been possible without building computers And when I read this guy's facebook post originally before he just straight up sold the card is that he recently got into Building and flipping pcs He's pretty new to the game and to me when I first got into the game I was super lucky in that no one scammed me No one sold me a bad part and I always got stuff that worked And it wasn't until I started to make some money back That I realized that not everyone's going to be straightforward and honest with you and sell you something that's supposed to work So for this guy who watches my videos Who also is just new to the game? He doesn't deserve that experience. I don't want to sit here and tell you guys that Buying and selling secondhand parts is always going to be this rainbow magical unicorn fart glitter dust world of perfect usable parts because it's not But When you first get into the game, I think that everyone should at least have the opportunity of working with honest people that are not going to hustle you are not going to scam you and For this guy, I want him to have the same experience I did So I hope you guys found this video creative entertaining or informative in any way shape or form Uh, it was definitely not as informative this time around as always I hope you guys have a great day And don't tell him don't tell him I swapped the cards I don't know if he's going to watch this video But don't tell him because you know what if you couldn't tell the difference between the gtx 1070 models. He doesn't need to now

So recently, there have been a lot of Ravens fans that have been going crazy over this. Well, not even over the tweet per se because it is kind of obvious, but over the fact that Alan Robinson, he liked it. So it's sent Ravens flocking to this frenzy and a lot of us have been dreaming about Alan Robinson in a Ravens uniform. But is it something that's doable? Would the Ravens consider going after A-Rob? Would A-Rob even consider joining the Ravens? Let's break it down. Don't get mad, it's just what it is. Yeah, we talkin' sport shot, I think Raven being. So YouTube team keeping clean, what's going on is saying Raven here with another video. Before we get into this Alan Robinson frenzy, I gotta give a huge shout out to Tanks Toys on Instagram. Now what Tanks Toys is, is a company that sells new, used, and even refurbished electronics. If you're looking for iPhone, AirPods, laptops, TVs, whatever, they got you covered. And they are in Baltimore, so you already know they gonna take care of you. So make sure you follow them on Instagram at TanksToys. And when you do, let them know that Ingraven viss sent you. I'll leave that information down below in the description. So team keep it clean. Until the Ravens get Lamar Jax and the true number one receiver, they will not be Super Bowl contenders. And the Ravens should just hand Alan Robinson a blank check. Those are two quotes that sent the Ravens flock in a frenzy, had them going crazy, and just had people salivating over the possibility of Lamar Jax and throwing passes to one Alan Robinson. But is it something that's feasible? Is it something that is realistic? Well, it depends on what view you're looking at it from. If you're looking at it from the view of a fan, as in, hey, would a number one receiver truly be beneficial for Lamar Jackson and these Baltimore Ravens? Well, of course, of course it is. That's a no brainer. There's no question about that at all. But then you gotta look at it from the business standpoint of both sides, both Alan Robinson and of the Baltimore Ravens. Now, if recent history tells you anything, then that will let you know that this would not be a move that the Baltimore Ravens would make. Why? Because they don't invest in the offense like that. They'll spend some draft picks on a couple of receivers here and there. And recently, they've done better with that. They drafted Hollywood in the first round. They drafted Boykin in the third round now. Devon Duvenay and Proshay, they were later around picks. But the Ravens felt like, hey, we drafted these guys, Hollywood and Boykin. We're gonna continue to let those guys flourish and let them do their thing. And then of course, Small was still there, Willie Snead was still there. And then along the way, they brought along Des Bryant too. But is that really investing, investing in the offense? Now, you know, again, back to Ravens history, that's just not something they do. The wide receiver has been in position of question for years now. It's always after every single year, whenever you ask, oh, what's the Ravens' biggest need? Well, what do they need to do next? What do they need to grab? Who do they need to sign? Wide receiver is always at the top of the list. And if it's not number one, then it's definitely always number two. But this year, it is no different. It's something that a lot of us have been talking about throughout the year, especially in the beginning of the year, that the Ravens, they truly need a number one wide receiver. Now, throughout this year, we have continued to see Hollywood Brown do his thing. He has definitely stepped up his game, especially after the whole tweet, as we know, blah, blah, blah. But Hollywood, he had a decent year. And then in the playoffs, playoffs Hollywood, he looked even better. So if we could get that Hollywood, the Hollywood that continued to come around, especially later on in the season, and then you add a true number one wide receiver to that, and not only a number one wide receiver, because the Ravens have had number one wide receivers before. Remember Michael Crabtree? Remember Steve Smith Sr.? Remember Ann Cromboldon? Remember Derek Mason? But even though the Ravens have had those number one wide receivers before, one, two, three, four, all four of them were not in their prime. That is where the Ravens lack it. Having a true number one receiver in their prime. Usually when Ravens get their number one receivers, it's guys that at the tail end of their careers, they ain't got that much time left in the league, and it's somebody that's a cheap fallback option. But if the Ravens could get an Allen Robinson, it would be going completely against the grain for the Baltimore Ravens. Cause you know, and we know the expectation when it comes to the Ravens in the free agent wide receiver department, that first wave of free agency, Ravens are never active with those free agent wide receivers. And it has been a gift and a curse all at the same time. And the way that it's been a gift, it has kept the Ravens from overspending on these free agent wide receivers, but at the same time it's been a curse because the Ravens still have truly not gotten their guy. So as much as I would truly love for Allen Robinson to be a Baltimore Raven this upcoming season, as much as you all would truly love for Allen Robinson to become a Baltimore Raven this season, I just, I'm not going to get my hopes up. I hope the Ravens prove me wrong. I hope Eric DeCosta picks up the phone and hits me up and like engraving, ha, gotcha buddy. We got a Rob. But I just don't really see it happening. And something that we said early on this season is that I don't even want the Ravens to draft the number one wide receiver. I don't even want that because I would be worried about the development of that number one wide receiver because if he goes to some other team, then that guy could shine, he could go do his thing. But if he comes to the Ravens, I would be scared for him because I'd be like, man, I don't feel like they could truly unlock their potential. And this is not even a Lamar Jackson thing. It wasn't even a Joe Flacco thing because I know that people try to use that narrative. Oh, well, no number one receiver will want to come to the Ravens because Lamar Jackson can't throw. Well, do you feel like Joe Flacco was a better passer of the football than Lamar Jackson? If you do, then why did the Ravens still not truly go out and get any number one wide receivers in their prime? Let me tell you the answer. It's because that's not what they do. So this is why as much as Allen Robinson would be a perfect fit physical receiver, big frame wide receiver, knows how to adjust to the ball in the air wide receiver, can run every route wide receiver, can do it all. Despite him being the perfect fit for the Baltimore Ravens, I just don't expect it to happen. So then we got to look at it from the standpoint of one Allen Robinson. Allen Robinson has been a number one receiver throughout his career. He did it with the Jacksonville Jaguars. He also did it with the Chicago Bears. So he's used to being that guy. If you take a look at his career numbers, you can see that he consistently puts up pretty good numbers. And actually, if he was a Ravens receiver and got those numbers, he would be in the ring of honor already, he would be in there. It would be locked up for him. So Allen Robinson, he's used to being that guy that the Ravens are missing, but would he want to come to a Ravens offense to where the wide receivers there, they don't put up those crazy numbers like that. So that would be one thing that would be going against the Ravens favor and trying to get him to come to Baltimore. So what the Ravens would need to do in my opinion, because you can't truly sell him on, hey, you're gonna be the number one receiver. I mean, he would know that already. He would know that he would be the best receiver in Baltimore as soon as he touched down and got off the plane. That's not a question. And that's not a shot to anybody on the roster at all. But we know Allen Robinson, he has already a proven vet in this league. He done been around, done this, done that, proven himself. But what the Ravens would have to sell him on is something that he never truly had consistently. And that would be a winning culture, a winning culture, because the Ravens, as much as we get on them, as much as we are frustrated with them, and as much as we feel like they could do even better, they do do pretty good. They do pretty good for a franchise. And they do actually pretty great when you look at the overall picture of things in the long run. Now they still could use some improvements here and there, but we're gonna talk about that later. But they have a winning culture. They are always a competitive team. They are always in the thick of things when it comes to the playoff race. And they are always in the hunt. And having a true number one wide receiver in their prime is something that they just never have. So Allen Robinson could be the chance of a lifetime. But now for Allen Robinson, it wouldn't only take him buying into the culture for him to actually wanna come to the Ravens, we also gotta talk money. Cause culture don't pay the bills. It surely doesn't. Money talks though. So now with the Ravens, how do you get Allen Robinson? Well, when you think of it, he is gonna be one of the top, if not the top, free agent wide receiver this year. So Ravens, you would have to pay a whole lot more money than what you normally pay for a free agent wide receiver. This is another reason why I just feel like Allen Robinson to the Ravens will not happen. Because if they're gonna pay all this big money to this wide receiver, hey, if they're gonna do it, I would love it. But then some things would definitely have to change. And if Greg Roman is still gonna be the offensive coordinator for this team, then that could shoo a lot of receivers away from wanting to play for him. Like, I mean, you see there's Brian and we're gonna talk about that later on. There's Brian seems like he is not the biggest fan of a Greg Roman right now. And also you saw the whole thing of Matt Jude on as well. But you see with Greg Roman and his offenses, this is nothing new though. Greg Roman offenses, whether with San Francisco, whether with the Buffalo Bills, whether with the Baltimore Ravens. Oh yeah, top 10, top 10 Russian offenses. Oh, they run that ball so well and it's so pretty, but bottom 10 for passing offenses. So Ravens would be paying money for somebody that would not necessarily be a luxury. He would not be a luxury. I feel like he would be a necessity, but he may not be used as much as he would be used in a more traditional, conventional passing offense. So even though he liked the tweets and whatnot, I feel like for the Ravens to get one, Allen Robinson, it would take a whole lot. And I just don't feel like the Ravens in this front office would be willing to give that. So sorry to be the burst of bubbles, but I just, I don't see it happening. As much as I would love for it to happen, I just don't think the Ravens would be willing to give up that much money. And this is like top wide receiver money. Top wide receiver money for a wide receiver in this current offense. So like Allen Robinson is gonna be with the Bears as long as they don't franchise tag him, I'm out. I'm out.


Listen 295. The Holy Spirit looks through me today. Christ asks that He may use my eyes today and thus redeem the world. He asks this gift that He may offer peace of mind to me and take away all terror and all pain. And as they are removed from me, the dreams that seem to settle on the world are gone. Redemption must be won. As I am saved, the world is saved with me, for all of us must be redeemed together. Fear appears in many different forms, but love is one. My Father, Christ has asked a gift of me and one I give that it be given me. Help me to use the eyes of Christ today and thus allow the Holy Spirit's love to bless all things, which I may look upon, that His forgiving love may rest on me. Amen.
