from our losses and from our frustrations and from our hardships we gain if we have the right
00:02:38.860
perspective one of the most thankful things in my life is the fact that it's never been easy
00:02:46.060
it's never been easy for me it may look easy to some of you and i do my best to communicate that
00:02:52.920
it never has been easy but i can tell you the reason i'm so thankful for that is because everything
00:02:59.140
that i've ever learned everything that i've ever gained everything that i've ever produced has come
00:03:04.520
from the hard times okay so if you're going through a hard time this thanksgiving realize
00:03:09.660
that it's there to teach you something it's there to contribute to you and don't get caught up in this
00:03:16.180
idea that you don't have anything to be thankful for and that your life sucks that's total bullshit and
00:03:21.880
