Speaker 1: Creativity is an addiction unplugged because we will always say
yes to creativity, totally uncut because we all make mistakes,
So why not turn it into a tool. This is
arrow unplugged. I am so glad that we are finally
getting the opportunity to talk about this because I've learned
of something. It's a new spiritual protector. It's called seven knots.
Are you familiar with this? Now? For some it's a
string with seven handmade knots evenly placed around the necklace
or the bracelet. The spiritual meaning is to ward off
evil spirits and to protect yourself from bad luck. Plus,
some people use the seven knots to receive seven wishes. Now,
the last time that I received a hidden away message
such as this was just over a year ago when
I was invited to soak banana peels in green rubbing oil.
Because it removes the pain from the body. And you
know what it does. It works. Here's why I should
try seven knots. The woman that shared it with me
always complains about having a bad pain in her neck,
so she started using the seven knots. The pain has
gone away. But here's the crazy part. At three point
thirty five This morning, I woke up from a dream
and my neck was hurting horribly, and right away I
thought of the seven knots. But then I was reminded
of the banana peels inside the green rubbing oil. Which
do I use? How do we grow? Is this just
an old wives tale? Well? I know the rubbing oil
physically works. You take the peelings and you soak it
for thirty days, do not go in it, and after
the thirty days you can start rubbing it on your
body and it works. Now will I try the seven knots?
I think I should because it does come with that
spiritual connection. Plus it creates conversation. Hey, it's arrow. This
is the daily Mess, a chronological walk through an everyday world.
I am a daily writer, the silent wolf. I sit
beneath the brush of the everyday world and I watch
and I listen. I learn about things such as the
seven knots or the banana peels soaking in green rubbing oil.
This is the daily Mess. I'm not so sure about
our business. Return to shaking hands. It's kind of like
almost gross to reach out there and shake someone's hand
and say, I don't know where that thing has been
Are you kidding me? I mean, with the COVID numbers
and RSV on the uptick right now, the general reaction
has returned to, oh well, if it happens, it happens.
Many many medical people pass through our day at my
essential job, and they're talking about how their hospitals are
overcrowded with people who've got COVID and who are suffering
from RSV. The idea of putting yourself in some sort
of quarantine is an insult to other people's freedoms. I mean,
we've been here before, except this time. Our holiday gatherings
are so big, and the self prescribed treatments include liquid
IV tile and all get yourself some musin X, keep
an eye on your temperature, your scratchy throat and the
wheeziness in your lungs. But back to the business handshake,
Is it really necessary? I mean, even the fist bump
can spread those evil juices to another person's body. Do
you know where those knuckles have been being aware of
the air that's around you. No guarantee the handshake, the
fist bump. You're speaking too close to me, Come on,
six feet please. It's almost like we've got PTSD. We
physically see what's being played out. But what we're doing
is we're playing with playing with the dangers of the
potential of getting We've talked about this before. The article
is about what's going on on college campuses. The students
still want to be quarantined if they find out if
they have COVID, so therefore they won't take the test.
If you don't know, you don't know. But why why
are we putting ourselves in a position such as that?
So many of my friends have said, because we're going
to get better anyway. It's just going to take a
few days, but it's going to work itself out. Where
I get lost is why did we have to go
that far? Not only are we shaking hands and fist bumping,
but people are hugging. I mean they are hugging, and
I totally get it because man or woman, I don't care.
I'm a hugger too, and it just feels so good
in a world that feels like it's being broken. INTWO,
But are we spreading something that's going to get out
of control or is it my PTSD? Remember now, I've
got banana peels in my green rubbing oil, and I
also know something about the seven knots. You want to
try it with me, You're gonna take a chance with it.
How are we going to make it through this part
of the story and are you documenting the changes that
we're going through. It's not a difficult chore because if
you go to the doctor, they're gonna say, when did
this start? I don't know. Maybe you know the air
that you surround yourself with comes with no guarantees. Just
play it safe. That's all you have to do. Play
it safe. I'm Marrow and that's the daily mess.
