Is there any way, Mister Jeff Johnson, that you try to improve your commentating skills ? No offense but your voice is already irritating, can you at least not emphasize words without any reasons? Once again, please ask advices from Beau Estes. Peace and love and sorry if I'm harsh
"Most people, if they had really learned to look into their own hearts, would know that they do want, and want acutely, something that cannot be had in this world. There are all sorts of things in this world that offer to give it to you, but they never quite keep their promise […] If I find in myself a desire which no experience in this world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that I was made for another world."
Lewis continues, "Probably earthly pleasures were never meant to satisfy it, but only to arouse it, to suggest the real thing. If that is so, I must take care, on the one hand, never to despise, or be unthankful for, these earthly blessings, and on the other, never to mistake them for the something else of which they are only a kind of copy, or echo, or mirage. I must keep alive in myself the desire for my true country, which I shall not find till after death; I must never let it get snowed under or turned aside; I must make it the main object of life to press on to that other country and to help others to do the same." – C. S. Lewis, from Mere Christianity, pp. 135-137. Published by HarperCollins.
"All men seek happiness. This is without exception… All complain, princes and subjects, noblemen and commoners, old and young, strong and weak, learned and ignorant, healthy and sick, of all countries, all times, all ages, and all conditions… which he in vain tries to fill from all his surroundings, seeking from things absent the help he does not obtain in things present? But these are all inadequate, because the infinite abyss can only be filled by an infinite and immutable object, that is to say, only by God Himself." Blaise Pascal, Pensées, Tr. A.J. Krailsheimer, Penguin Classics, London, 1966

"Know that the life of this world is only play, and idle talk, and pageantry, and boasting among you, and rivalry in respect of wealth and children; as the likeness of vegetation after rain, whereof the growth is pleasing to the husbandman, but afterward it drieth up and thou seest it turning yellow then it becometh straw. And in the Hereafter there is grievous punishment, and (also) forgiveness from Allah and His good pleasure, whereas the life of the world is but matter of illusion." ( Quran. Surah Al-Hadid. ayat 20 )
"O, ye who believe! Bow down and prostrate yourselves, and worship your Lord, and do good, that haply ye may prosper." ( Quran. Surah Al-Hajj. ayat 77 )

Hello

That's why you should wear mouth guard
