00:00:05everything nothing happens on this
00:00:08planet without it not one single thing
00:00:11has ever been accomplished without
00:00:12intention so I started thinking about my
00:00:16life and I started thinking about this
00:00:18conference and what we’re about and and
00:00:20I looked back and I thought well I was
00:00:23two people my whole life I was in the
00:00:26living room entertaining people being a
00:00:28monkey you know doing my thing for the
00:00:30company and and trying to relieve my
00:00:34mother who was suffering she had
00:00:36rheumatoid arthritis and Vitus and
00:00:39everything everything under the Sun that
00:00:41was nagging at her and she was depressed
00:00:44and I wanted her to be free and I wanted
00:00:49her to realize that her life was worth
00:00:54something because she gave birth to
00:00:55someone who was worth something
00:01:00and then I would go into my room and I
00:01:04would sit with a legal pad I was a
00:01:10little kid I would sit there but I would
00:01:13try to figure out what it meant what it
00:01:16was all about why are we here what is
00:01:19this
00:01:24and one day I read something from Buddha
00:01:28that said that all spirituality is about
00:01:33relieving suffering and I suddenly
00:01:37realized that’s what I’m doing in the
00:01:39other room and I’m aligned you know this
00:01:47my purpose is aligned with this so I
00:01:51felt incredibly lucky I lose sight of
00:01:53that all the time
00:01:54I get caught up in different concerns
00:01:56and ego concerns but I’m so lucky to be
00:02:01a part of this community and to to do
00:02:05something that has a value
00:02:07and really cherish that and we are all
00:02:10one thing it really is true can I speak
00:02:13to the person in the last row are you
