I’m so grateful to God for not giving me what i thought I wanted, I literally begged, fasted and prayed for what might’ve been the worst decision of my life, he really knows it all, He’s GOD❤️
James Sexton, divorce attorney who's seen it all, drops a raw truth bomb:
Our entire society is engineered to distract you from the one fact that would shatter the consumer machine—if you truly internalized that you're going to die, you'd stop buying most of the meaningless shit they're selling.
He proposes a radical reset: Mandatory 1–2 years of hospice volunteering at 18.
Why? Because spending time with the dying strips everything bare.
They don't talk about their bank accounts, status, or possessions.
They talk about:
- The people they loved
- The connections they made
- The beautiful (and painful) experiences
All the "important" drama in your day evaporates the moment you walk out of that room.
Sexton shares his mom's final cancer surgery—20 minutes in, doctors closed her up: cancer everywhere, nothing more to do. In that instant, every other worry in his life got turned down to zero volume. All that mattered was time left to love her, to make sure she knew.
Reminder: There is a finite number of times you'll kiss your wife, hug your kids, call your parents. You don't know the number. You'll only realize it after you've passed it.
That finitude is what makes every moment sacred.
Living forever would be a curse.
Right now, the people you love are alive—right now.
Kiss them as many times as you want.
That is the greatest thing in the world.
Powerful, uncomfortable, beautiful perspective. Keep death in your line of sight—it's the ultimate clarity filter.
🥹 According to Travis Payne, Michael Jackson’s dancer and choreographer for 17 years, there would have been a break in the song “Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’” during the This Is It concert series. In this interval, halfway through the song, it would have been “replaced” by an a cappella rendition of “Speechless,” from the album Invincible.
The idea was to stir the fans’ emotions, pulling them out of that moment of pure adrenaline and, for a few instants, making them focus solely on the King of Pop’s stage presence and voice.
@truthsedated @mymixtapez@grok The interpretation of this scripture is don’t pray out loud just so people can hear you. That’s pride. However he was exemplifying MATT 5:44 which says…. pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you.
