[02:29.80]How does someone do so right if only seein' so wrong? [02:33.33]How does a community change for the better to change another community? [02:38.67]The answer is one word, self. [02:41.22]You see you must first change yourself as a person before you can change someone else or correct anyone on their own problems. [02:48.66]Only he without sin has the right to judge someone with sins in their wrong heart. [02:53.16]Some people are good hearted, some people are bad hearted. [02:56.72]Good and bad people both have their differences but one thing they have in common is sleep. [03:01.89]You see no matter how long you stay awake, you will always need to sleep. [03:06.49]And in that sleep, you exist in another world, another realm. [03:10.59]You will wake up in the morning only to have to go to sleep that same night. [03:16.39]And then you exist again in the dream world. [03:18.99]Keep the dream alive. Mr. Peterson [03:23.08](music) [03:51.75]
