00:00Hey everyone, hey SBF, Blake Bliss here. I hope you're doing well and I hope you're feeling good.
00:06And we just had Canada Day over in Canada here, so that was cool.
00:10We had like fireworks and all sorts of different things like that.
00:13So if you were celebrating, I hope you were safe and I hope you're feeling really, really well.
00:17It's really, really hot out today and I'm just outside, just enjoying some beautiful weather.
00:22I just wanted to give you guys a bit of an update for SBF.
00:25I have a really, really cool idea for a series that I wanted to start and I wanted to share
00:29it with you guys.
00:30And see if you guys were into the idea.
00:31The idea is called, What Would You Ask the World?
00:34And basically, it's going to give us an opportunity for you guys to ask your questions.
00:38And me go out into the sort of, just like, general public, ordinary folks such as yourself, such as me,
00:45such as anybody.
00:47And just like, pose your questions to them.
00:49So, like, I would set up like, maybe, we would, we'd get the ball rolling off the cuff with just
00:55being like,
00:56okay, like, what would you guys ask as a set of questions to the world?
01:00And, you know, I would take those questions and we would just start developing, brainstorming some ideas.
01:05Say the first set of questions was about bullying, for instance.
01:09And perhaps that was what the first set of questions was all about.
01:11And then we would construct a question, you know, you would, you would, you would ask a question and then
01:17you'd vote up.
01:18And then the top rated comment question would be the one that I would maybe take around to different people
01:23and just interview random people, families, you know, families,
01:30different demographics, all sorts of different people, and just see what they, how they respond to your questions.
01:36Because oftentimes, I mean, people are, people are often searching for answers.
01:40And the question is obviously, ultimately, not ultimately, sometimes it's neglected.
01:46And I feel personally for me that the question is more important and more important than, than the answer.
01:52Um, because it gives, the question gives us an opportunity for us to look inside ourselves and search inside ourselves
01:59for our own answers and, and sort of take back that power.
02:02So we're not becoming sort of dependent or codependent on somebody else to just always be giving us answers and
02:06sort of giving us, force feeding us answers all the time.
02:09It gives us an opportunity to find them within ourselves.
02:11Because ultimately, your parameters in your life are, are vastly different to, to, to everybody else's.
02:17And, you know, including mine and, and, and, and anybody.
02:19So like, ultimately, like, do I really know, I mean, perception is infinite, knowledge is finite.
02:25So do I really know, uh, you know, the, the, the, the, the, the correct answer in, in terms of
02:31having to solve your, solve your individual problems?
02:34You know, you know, not, not, not necessarily, right?
02:38So sometimes it's just best to ask a question and have the person just look inside themselves and find that
02:43answer within us, uh, find that answer within ourselves.
02:46Well, salvation, uh, lies within the answer's question, uh, effectively.
02:50So I would like to start this ball rolling just by saying to you guys, uh, what, if you had
02:56an opportunity to ask, uh, ask somebody a question, say, like, just ask people in the general public.
03:03Like, I'm going to, I'm going to interview an array or a series, a spectrum of different people from different
03:08walks of life.
03:08Um, you know, just sort of randomly going, I'm going to go to this, uh, few locations.
03:13I don't, I'm not sure how it's going to work.
03:14We'll see how it goes.
03:15We'll see if you guys are interested at this, at this point.
03:17But I'm just going to basically be asking people your questions and finding out, uh, finding out what they would
03:23say.
03:24And then to sort of flip it, I'm going to get them at the end of the interview to ask
03:28a question back to you guys.
03:29So then there's a bit of a dialogue between you and them.
03:32So it could be pretty cool, you know, because there'd be, like, a definitive dialogue between you guys, the viewers,
03:37and, and, and, and, and them.
03:39Like, being, like, you guys being online and them being offline.
03:42So it'd be, like, a conversation between online and offline, which could be kind of cool.
03:47So there's sort of both, and you could answer those questions that they've posed to you and then sort of
03:51maybe ask one back, you know.
03:52And we can sort of build this dialogue out.
03:54Anyway, I just wanted to throw this idea out to you guys.
03:56I didn't want to make this video too, too long.
03:58I just wanted to make an update just to say, like, hi, and I hope you're all well.
04:02You know, I, um, yeah, that's basically it.
04:06So, uh, anyway, I love you all very, very much.
04:08It's a, it's a beautiful, beautiful day out today.
04:10And, um, I have, I have a lot to be grateful for because it's just, uh, beautiful and sunny.
04:17And, um, I, my, my family, uh, went away to, to Europe.
04:22And, um, so I've just been spending a lot of time with my mom.
04:25Um, and I've been really grateful for that because that's been really, really nice to spend time with my family.
04:30And spend time with my mother, um, and, uh, just share, uh, share some experiences with her.
04:35Or maybe even, like, going out together today.
04:37So that could be really, really fun.
04:39Um, anyway, I just wanted to give you a bit of an update and just to say, like, you know,
04:43uh, in terms of SBF, people have been asking me,
04:45what's going on with SBF, what's going on with SBF, you know, there's, um, we all have online lives and
04:51offline lives.
04:52And, like I've been saying, so, like, the people part of SBF, they, they probably, they, we all have, like,
04:56very, very busy lives.
04:58As everybody does, I'm sure that people are watching.
05:00You know, you, you get caught up with things and you have a busy life.
05:02Um, so, like, you know, the, the channel will always be sort of morphing and shifting and it's, it's, it's,
05:09um, it's, it's very malleable.
05:11And, uh, it's, it's, it's going to be shifting and, and, and, and changing all the time.
05:16So you just have to embrace that, that there's going to be, like, there's going to be slow periods and
05:19there's going to be, it's going to, it's going to pick up.
05:21And, you know, it's, it's just going to be dependent on the people that are involved.
05:25Obviously, like, we all have, like, real, like, a lot of things going on.
05:29And it's, it's tough to always keep up with constant, with consistent content.
05:33However, like, uh, being that I'm one of the front runners for this, uh, this channel, uh, I'm, I'm picking
05:39up the slack and I'm making this series.
05:41And I hope that you guys really enjoy it because it's going to be something that's going to be able
05:44to be more interactive, uh, online and offline for both the viewers and the people that I'm going to be
05:50interviewing.
05:50So let me know.
05:52And I'm just going to sort of, I'm just saying that, like, basically I can't speak for the other SBF
05:56members and I wouldn't want to.
05:58But I'm just saying that, you know, like, people get caught up with, um, sort of the busyness and helter
06:03-skelter of life and that's okay.
06:05So, you know, people are still involved, um, and, you know, they're just doing their thing and it is what
06:12it is.
06:12And they'll, they'll make videos when they have a chance and opportunity to.
06:15And, um, anyway, so I'm just going to pose the first question to you guys is what would you ask
06:21the world?
06:21And let's, let's see if we can build a, a, a question out of this.
06:26So, uh, to, to sort of get the ball rolling for our first, first set of questions in terms of,
06:31of, of interviewing, um, interviewing people.
06:34So what would you ask the world if you had one question that you could ask?
06:38What would you ask the world?
06:38And then vote that question up and let's just see what surfaces in the top comments.
06:42So, anyway, I love you guys very much.
06:44I hope you're all well.
06:45I hope you're enjoying your life and that you're safe and that you're happy and that you're enjoying summer and
06:51that, you know, you're, you're doing things that are positive for your life, um, advantageous and beneficial and that, uh,
06:58you're safe.
06:59And that, um, you're enjoying your friends and your family and, um, you're treating yourself to a few treats and
07:06a few things that are maybe, uh, something that you enjoy.
07:09Maybe you're going out for an ice cream or something like that.
07:11But do something nice for yourself, you know, nurture yourself and make sure that you're your own best friend.
07:17There's a lot of people in this world that will throw stones at you and make you feel bad and,
07:21and really bring you down.
07:23But you know what?
07:24It, it's, it's, it all comes down to you and how you ultimately, ultimately you look after yourself.
07:29Because people can throw stuff at you.
07:31People can say stuff to you.
07:32People can be rude.
07:33People can be mean.
07:33But ultimately, it's, it's you that has the last say in all this.
07:37It's you.
07:38I mean, you cannot create emotion in another person.
07:40So they just present you with an experience and you choose the outcome state of that experience.
07:47You are in control of this ship.
07:49You are in control of your life.
07:51And people will say things to you.
07:53They can be negative.
07:53They can be distorted.
07:54But ultimately, that's just an experience.
07:57And how you compartmentalize that experience, how you channel that experience into your life, that is the outcome state.
08:03And you have full control and full reign over how that actually operates.
08:07So just remember that, just take back your power and just, you know, be good to yourself.
08:14If, if people are being mean and ugly and unkind and just rude to you, don't go back and beat
08:20yourself up over it.
08:21Because that's not going to help you either.
08:23So just try to be your own best friend and stand up for what's right and make a positive change
08:28in this world.
08:29Be the change you wish to see on this planet.
08:31And, uh, we can all work together to do that.
08:34And maybe this series, maybe these questions that you guys have, maybe these questions will help somebody else.
08:39Maybe these questions will stimulate a thought in somebody else's mind that I interview and be like, you know what?
08:43I never thought of that.
08:44And that was you guys who did that.
08:46You know what I mean?
08:46That's what I think is so, could be, could be so inspiring about this series, depending on if you guys
08:50like it.
08:51Anyway, I just wanted to say, like, I hope you're all, I hope you're all well.
08:54I, I'm sorry that we haven't been posting up consistently on this channel.
08:57But, you know, I, I hope to remedy that and rectify, uh, and potentially have this be a solution in
09:05terms of, uh, what this channel does.
09:07Uh, or what, my, how I contribute to this channel, uh, anyway.
09:12So, um, love you all.
09:14Please enjoy the rest of your day.
09:16And, uh, I hope you're well.
09:18And, uh, I can't stress that enough.
09:20And be safe, be kind, and, uh, you no longer walk alone.
09:24Bye, everyone.
09:25Love you.
09:26Cheerio.
09:28Come from a very sincere and compassionate place.
09:31Come, come from a place where you feel that this question, that question you're going to ask, could benefit not
09:37only you, but everybody else.
09:39Think about that.
09:40What's that question?
09:41How does that look?
09:42Anyway, guys, love you.
09:44Take care.
09:44Bye.
09:45Bye.
