[@aronquinn7676]

What Tyler Perry says at the end of this video is so profound and I hope it blesses someone out there because all of us if not most of us have experienced or may experience that feeling at some point in our lives. It's also interesting that the interviewer asked that question right at the 5 minute and 55 second mark because the number 5 in the bible is associated with God's grace, mercy, and favor🥹

It truly are the little things that encourges us that's what counts. That's what I have found for my self gives an inner strength. If we do not give up we will reap the rewards. Thanks again.

[@praisechinonye1320]

The little things❤❤❤

[@OutTheBlueTarot]

I love this! I am actually homeless, myself, and what he said towards the end was 🎯! I lost my job, and my place caught on fire (displacing about 20 people due to landlords negligence). It's important to find the little things during this journey, and it will all add up. I started listening to Abraham Hicks/Law of Attraction, and Joe Dispenza videos, and reading books by Eckhart Tolle "The Power Of Now", and it made a difference. I always reflect on Tyler and Steve Harvey's journeys, as both were homeless for years before their come up. The more I focus on the positive, and how I want things to be, as opposed to complaining, and reliving the past, the more God and the Universe shows up. My car was almost repossed, until I told the bank my story, and they decided to pay off the remaining balance!!! Strangers and distant cousins have been so helpful during my spiritual journey. I am SUPER grateful. I'm also learning to stay in the present... It took over 2 years to heal from past-life connections, but I'm finally excited and moving fwd (forgiveness of others and yourself is paramount). And as I type this, I am preparing to start my new job today, which allows me to travel (they pay for hotels I will be staying) , as I work on becoming an entrepreneur - a voice over actor, author, and building my UTube channel to inspire others to heal themselves by using tarot. The key is to be grateful for EVERYTHING (big and small), and visualize and affirm what you want and go after it... Finally, don't micromanage the Universe... Be receptive to receiving REGARDLESS of how it comes. Thank you Tyler for being such an inspiration! ❤

[@sequoyamaisonblacque]

a glimpse in time ✨ listening to this made me remember taking a trip back from New York to Texas, on the MegaBus, after visiting my daughter at school when she attended Columbia-this in Jan/Feb 2020, I believe.. waking up somewhere enroute and at some point, having a conversation with a young man (around the same age as my son) whom apparently had come from upstairs, down because of some negative interaction he had been receiving up-top during the ride, and sharing that he was on his way to Atlanta for audition on a Tyler Perry pilot. of course, people say the most elaborate things many times but, this young man (coming down on the MegaBus)-who was so very excited, personally showed me the email relays and the noted social media taps which validated his statements. when we arrived in Atlanta, I wished his the best of luck, safety and success on his journey. 19 c hit just a few weeks later. although I wish I could remember his and the pilot names, I broadly recall his face and the grateful excitement he held for his Tyler Perry opportunity. never discount the little geo metro megabus moments 🙏🏽
