#31 - Residuals

In this episode, Meeks references and expounds upon a newly released song called Residuals by Chris Brown. The nostalgic record hearkens back to a moment in time when you were with someone and it seemed like time slowed in their presence, and then just like that, it was over. Was it God's plan or your indolence? That's the question this pod tries to answer and help young adults understand that the demise of a relationship is not pre-determined, but it may be a sign that you and that person are not aligned emotionally, physically, ideologically, or spiritually. And that is okay. It doesn't necessarily reflect poorly on you, though if there were some lessons to be learned - that negative feedback should be humbly received and applied in future relationships. Chris Brown's remembrance of past relationships is bitter-sweet, but he is not bitter, nor was Christ when he gave up the ghost for humanity. In like manner, we should forgive and move on from our past, failed intimate relationships. So, toast to the memories.All Rights Reserved | Fair Use | 2024
