How many people blame trauma for their issues in life? Everyone faces hardships, but you should never let your struggles define you—even if you become paralyzed from the neck down. The issue in life is not what happens to you; it’s how you react to it.

hello there Dennis Prager here with
fireside chat number 3 30 30 wow it's
dramatic not that dramatic hi everyone
chance for me to say what's on my mind
and chance for you to ask
questions been doing this for 330
weeks which is a long time when you
think about
it I always open up with some
thoughts and by the way talking about
thoughts
I'm going off on a tent within this
might be a record the first 60 seconds
and I'm already on a
tangent but I just thought you'd find
this of interest anyway tangents are
interesting uh well tangent interesting
tangents are
interesting
so I have a thought Factory in here
that's why I often drive with no music
or or anything else on
and I am very very entertained as it
were uh uh my mind just comes up with
thoughts and I I didn't do anything I
take any credit for it which is a good
segue really into what I want to talk to
you
about which has two at least two
dimensions and I've mentioned this in
passing but never as an opening comment
the notion that we have two Natures
human nature which everybody has that's
it's it's called human nature and then
there's our own
nature I could prove to you how
everybody has their own nature I'm not
sure it needs any proof I think most of
you acknowledge this but here's a here's
a common sense common proof how many
people have a very similar nature to
their
siblings isn't it funny I have one one
sibling the wonderful human
being and had we been raised one in
Thailand and the other in
Argentina I don't think we would have
had more different
Natures it's just the way it is but we
were raised the same biological parents
the best of our knowledge in the same
homes so it's very
similar obviously
environment and and it just it is what
it
is the reason one of the many many
reasons it's so important to to
understand that we have two Natures
human nature and our own nature is
there's no way to work out life work
through life if you don't know that
that's why I talked about last last
fireside chat and so many others
even even uh Taylor Swift has a song
about this was it the anti-hero when she
you know she looks in in the mirror and
she sees the
problem there doesn't even seem to be a
reason
today although whenever I mention Taylor
Swift it's
amazing which is true since I've never
mentioned her
before so it is true that whenever I
mention Taylor Swift one of the dogs
barks we could actually keep that in the
video I don't see any reason to remove
it why why can't you be privy to the
silliness that takes place off
camera well she so we H she has this
song you know we're we're our problem so
that's one of the major reasons it's
important to understand you've got to
battle human nature and you've got to
battle your own nature that's lot a lot
of battling to to
do but Megan the great Megan the owner
of the most famous arm in America has
raised a very interesting
point that really does need need to be
addressed that's related to
this a reminder because we don't trust
social media they may take us down any
day it's a tragedy that I'm saying that
was once a truly free country
but we really ask that you go to prageru
