Speaker 1: My entire radio life, forty three years of radio, and
I can still hear that voice when people say, what
is wrong with this guy? He's just being creative. What Yeah,
there's nothing wrong with him. He's okay. He does weird things,
he says stupid stuff. Sometimes, just leave him alone. He's
just being creative. Unplugged because we will always say yes
to creativity, totally uncut, because we all make mistakes, so
use it as a tool. This is arrow unplugged. I
think it's the craziest feeling. Something doesn't feel right, and
let's say your leg or your tummy, maybe on your arm,
and somehow, some way it affects everything that you're doing
that day. It's like, oh, my finger hurts, Well, what
did you do? I don't know, it hurts, and everything
that you do, your decision making, your planning, everything is infected.
It's almost like the pain from that injured finger is
a poison. What about the pain in your head and
your heart? How much of that is silenced or is
it embrace, loved, healed or does it constantly hit you
every five seconds and it poisons the way you think,
the way you act and react and reply, Oh my god,
the way we reply. Sometimes to other people, a simple
question or a request is brought forward and it's like
say whoa okay, what hurts you? Nos hey zero. This
is the daily Mess, a chronological walk through in everyday world.
I am a daily writer, a silent wolf. I sit
underneath the brush and I watch life. I hear life,
I envision. I don't try to change. I'm just there
to listen then write about it. This is the daily mess.
My essential job includes lighteen employees, those that are anywhere
between fifteen and nineteen years old. Their first step toward
earning money is that job, before heading out there to
college or just doing something on their own. In a
really big but very small world. Because of the conditions
of this modern day political planet, I really wanted to
know did they ever think of the nuclear threats coming
our way from North Korea and Russia? Do you think
about it? Are you worried about it? And they all
said no. No. One did say it's not that we
don't think about it or talk about it. We just
don't invest in making it a reason to bring up fear. Oh,
which I totally understand. Oh yeah, oh yeah, because with
everything going wrong in the world and especially locally. The
thought of out of control bombs destroying things forever feels
more like a sci fi flick than physicality. As young
adults still in high school, there are other methods of madness.
Staying focused on now is what is now, and it
helps provide them a stronger core of survival. Come on,
we all worry. Thinking openly about it helps heal other people.
Remember every news story that's on the five o'clock news,
and the front page of that newspaper always talks about
the silent neighbor, the one the people next door always say,
he was very quiet. I didn't think twice about him.
He was just always there. He's the one that did it.
Are you asking the questions? Have you talked with your teenagers?
What is going through their head in this moment of
where we stand on this planet? An economy in the
United States that they keep saying it's getting worse, it's
getting worse. Let me tell you right now, My parents
did not pay for food as much as we are today.
They did not the price of gas. They did not
pay the price of gas the way we are today.
But they always said that they lived the harder times.
And if the people that are in control of the economy,
are saying it's headed here, it's gonna be a bad time.
I have to shake my head because how long have
they been saying this, and how long can you say
the sky is falling before the rest of us say, eh, eh,
Let's go someplace else. Let's find our news someplace else.
The same is true about the war in Ukraine a
year ago. We were all talking about it today. It
just seems to be a part of our life. But
in fact we should always embrace what is going on
over there and not to get political. I don't want
to do that. We know what's happening, we know the
violations that have taken place, but nobody is being held accountable. Okay,
so what are we going to do about it? As
a globe, that's what we're waiting for. It's almost like
the second coming of Christ. We're waiting. They said he's coming.
Where's he at? Is it today? If it was today,
would we recognize him or would he be arrested just
like he was before he started to rise? Whoooo? The
essential job, every one of our jobs. They are blanketed
and blessed with the next generation that follows us. Ask
the questions, find out where they are and how they feel.
You don't have to agree, but at least you're asking.
I'm Marrow, and that's the daily mess.
