Episode 37: Candy Corn Is Not A Fruit Of The Spirit, But It Helps
What if the line between conviction and compassion is thinner than we think? We pick up the mics after a long pause and walk straight into a season-sized question: how should Christians approach Halloween without losing sight of love, wisdom, or joy. From All Hallows’ Eve and All Saints’ Day to modern front-porch outreach, we explore the roots, the drift, and practical ways to keep the night anchored in light—think warm welcomes, clear boundaries, and traditions that cherish kids without glamorizing darkness.
The conversation widens into the battleground of our times: social media pride, algorithmic echo chambers, and the pressure to win every argument. We talk about what gentle boldness looks like, how to speak truth with patience, and why edification beats dunking culture every time. Ecclesiastes frames the moment with hard-won wisdom—chasing total understanding can be futile—while the Psalms offer rest for tired minds and anxious nights. We name the thief of joy called comparison and trade highlight reels for real gratitude: imperfect families, small rituals, and honest faith that steadies the heart.
You’ll hear candid stories, Scripture that grounds action, and practical ideas you can try this week: reimagined fall traditions, kinder online habits, and a simple practice of prayer when sleep won’t come. If you’ve felt torn between standing firm and staying kind, or wondered how to find peace in a loud world, this one meets you on the road, at the porch light, and in the 2 a.m. quiet. If this resonates, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs encouragement, and leave a review to help more people find these conversations. Then tell us: where do you draw the line—and how do you keep love at the center?

It's time to wake up and run it up here on the Flying Penny Losing Sleep podcast. I'm Wesley, one of your hosts, and as always, I am joined by uh some people away up north. It feels like you're so far up there nowadays, Pierre and Michelle, because I just haven't I haven't spoken with you in a long time. Whenever we speak regularly on like a weekly, bi-weekly basis, it feels like you just live next door. Now it feels like you just so far away.
SPEAKER_01:It has been a while. That's for sure. I thought you forgot who we are when you said some people. I'm like, man, we're off for a rough start. It's been a long time.
SPEAKER_02:It is a long time. Well, happy, uh, happy fall to you. I thought I don't know when the last time we talked was, but happy fall to y'all. And it has been a long time because life just gets in the way. School started up, different things like that happened, school events, all those things that are going on, and we know you guys have busy lives too. And we hope to put together a podcast tonight where you can listen to it as you bump down the road, going to the next event, or maybe just while you're up. It's for right, Pierre.
SPEAKER_01:Right, right, yeah. Uh, you broke up a little there, but yeah, I'll just agree with you.
SPEAKER_02:Well, I said I said that's what the show's for. The show is for putting people to sleep, right? That's what fan finding faith and doing sleep.
SPEAKER_01:Definitely not putting people to sleep. He said scratch, uh, definitely not doing it while they're driving either. So let's be careful with that part. But no, it's it's for things that kind of keep us awake at night, some of our thoughts, uh based off our faith, and just based off the happenings in the world.
SPEAKER_02:Well, it is October, Michelle, and that means that pumpkin spice is back. And so is your annual reminder that Leviticus doesn't matter, uh, doesn't even get mentioned in the book of Leviticus.
SPEAKER_00:Okay.
SPEAKER_02:Did I say that right?
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, I think you did. I just caught me off guard.
SPEAKER_02:Try to be a little bit funny. Try to catch you off guard, Michelle. We just wanted to hear we wanted to hear you talk.
SPEAKER_00:Are you sure?
SPEAKER_02:Yes, I'm positive.
SPEAKER_00:Okay. Well, I love fall. Fall is my favorite. Second, it's it's cooler out. But I know Pierre and I disagree on this one, but I love fall.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, which one of you doesn't like snow? I can't remember which one doesn't like snow. That has to be that has to be Pierre.
SPEAKER_00:It's a hundred percent Pierre.
SPEAKER_02:Absolutely.
SPEAKER_00:Snow is my favorite. I just wish it wasn't didn't have to be so cold the snow.
SPEAKER_02:Well, I don't know. That's that's what it that's what it is. It's it's cold snow. That's that's usually what happens. Um we are the Finding Faith Losing Sleep podcast. I know I mentioned that before, but Pierre's got all the information on how you can get in touch with us in case you have a topic that you want us to cover before the end of the year, because we we're gonna hammer out at least two or three more episodes before the end of the year. I know it's October, but we could probably do that, guys.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, we we gotta get back in the in the fall of things. Um, I know like school is gonna be school and you know, different events will still take place, but you know, we want to prioritize, you know, get behind the mic and just having these conversations that we feel are important to some. And you know, people are still listening. We haven't been behind the mic in a while, and you know, we're still getting weekly updates of you know, listeners downloading past episodes. So thank you to those maybe re-listening, and and thank you to those that are just coming aboard and figuring out who we are.
SPEAKER_02:No, really, we do appreciate that. And it does it, it's a little humbling sometimes when you see who's still listening to the podcast. Like it's like, oh, uh, and not that we want anybody to go away. We don't want to do that, but it's it just keeps getting different downloads, and and I always feel guilty. I don't know about you guys, I feel guilty about that. Um, I feel guilty this time of year for eating a whole lot of pumpkin candy corn. I do that, I feel guilty after I get a get rid of a bag in a day. That that just is not good for me to do, but I do it anyway. I can't stop. It's one of those things where I just I open up the bag, I'm like, okay, a serving size is five. That's all just start out with five. That's all I'm gonna do. Next thing I know, it's it's the second five after that first five just disappeared, and so I just keep going. I I but I feel guilty about that, and I feel guilty for not getting out more episodes to the listeners.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, yeah. I mean, I I do as well. And again, we we got lives, but so does everyone else. So we we'll work on being better. Um, but yeah, if you do have any topics that you know you want to toss over to us, you can find us on X, uh formerly on his Twitter at Finding FaithPot. Um, you also got an email address, finding faith.losing sleep at gmail.com. Um, and then uh have a feature, like send a text. I haven't got one yet, but there's a feature, I believe, in the in the description of our episodes on all listening platforms that we're available on. And you can send us a text as well. So feel free to you know send us over any topic ideas, and again, we're gonna try to you know pick up the pace on some of these and meet a little bit more frequently and hopefully be able to hammer out some some conversation.
SPEAKER_02:And Michelle, I think that that would help. I think if people said, Hey, could you talk about this? I would feel a little bit more obligated to talk about that specific topic and to try to get uh an episode out for that person right away because whenever we get together, it's always like, okay, what do you what was this episode going to be about? And we pray about it and we we we think about it. And like this week, it was I I thought the only thing that came to my head was about Halloween, because we have Halloween around the corner, but it just it really didn't click. I I don't know if I wasn't listening properly to God uh telling me what needed to be heard or what needed to be talked about, but I I just it it it just didn't really click all that much. But speaking about Halloween, that's that's right around the corner. What do you guys think about Christians celebrating Halloween? Is is it good? Is it okay? Uh can it be done? What do you think?
SPEAKER_00:So I don't know. I I've never, to be honest with you, like growing up, I never really thought about it. Like we just celebrated it. And like even when Olivia was little, like we've always taken her trick-or-treating and just never obviously she wasn't dressed up as like something you know, gross or whatever or you know, demonic or anything like that. They were always cute little costumes, but like I don't know. I have only recently has it kind of sunk in with me, like maybe we shouldn't be celebrating this so much. Um I guess it's I think really what it comes down to is a heart issue. Like I don't I'm not gonna be putting up like all the ghosts and spiders, definitely not spiders, um, all those decorations and such. But like I don't know. I guess my personal feeling on it is I'm not I have a hard time telling somebody else what I think they should do. Um I don't necessarily agree with all of that. I don't love that our children see that. Like, I don't think there's a great place for some of those decorations, but that's my personal opinion. And like I think it's fun for the kids and it gives them something to look forward to to go like trick-or-treating, but I I don't know. I think there are limits to it, and I think it's become worse these days. What are your thoughts?
SPEAKER_02:Uh well uh I was gonna ask Pierre if he knew where the word Halloween came from. I did not.
SPEAKER_00:No, I don't either.
SPEAKER_02:All Hollows Eve. Oh, that's kind of where Halloween came, and and that is the night before All Saints Day, which is November 1st, and that's a Christian holiday honoring saints and martyrs. It is a time to reflect on the victory of light over darkness. November 1st is so that's kind of where Halloween and and and then it got hijacked, you know. As a celebration, it got hijacked a little bit, and uh yeah.
SPEAKER_01:So that's because it got it got kind of hijacked with almost like a darkness, like it's it's weird. Like, and so I I I mean I went to retreating as a kid, and you don't really think about that type of stuff, you know. Most of the time you're you're just going and trying to get candy, you know, trying to get that candy corn fix, right? Well, so uh that's just the thought process. But when you you start to grow up and you start to again see the the level of it, you can see the the darkness in it. I I still think there can be joy, you know, just founding the innocence of of kids, you know, dressing up as some of their you know favorite characters, and um again, you don't want to get to the borderline of like idols and stuff, but it's still just being able to get candy and you know come home and you know separate it and go through it with your parents and look at all the things you've got, yeah, grandparents as well. And so I can see the fun in it there, but I also can see that there's there's probably a line in you know how much you're celebrating and and what you're ultimately potentially worshipping uh on that night.
unknown:Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:Well, I like oh go ahead, Michelle.
SPEAKER_00:Oh, I was just gonna say, like for us, it's it's always like for Olivia, it's been a tradition for her to look forward to to and to my for my dad. Like we go to their house last and she sits on the floor and they sort the candy together and count it and what kinds, and like it's just been this cute little tradition that they've always had. So, you know, it's one of those little things like to look forward to. So I don't know, I think it's what you what you make of it and what you allow your kids to make of it, maybe.
SPEAKER_02:And I think what a lot of churches do nowadays, and and maybe even a lot of Christians, is look at it as an outreach opportunity too, to have like a fall festival and to get together. And and that's kind of what it started, and I say started out as, but uh in a pagan influence, that the Celtic festival, Samahan, I think that's how you pronounce it, they it used to be the end of the harvest and the beginning of winter. And people believe that the veil between living and the dead was so thin there that they lit bonfires and wore costumes to ward off evil spirits. And and so, you know, there were those old traditions like that that I'm not gonna say are necessarily true, but maybe that's where some of the scary stuff comes into play. And and you hear some of those old ghost stories and everything. And what churches do nowadays is they look at it as an opportunity to get together with church family and maybe even neighbors, and an outreach opportunity to just kind of break down that veil between people who maybe would never step foot in the church, or maybe they were thinking about doing that, and and having an opportunity just to say, hey, look at these people are just normal people having a good time, eating hot dogs around a campfire, and uh handing out candy and and doing some fun things like a hay ride, you know. And so it it's become kind of like that outreach opportunity, I believe. Yeah, I can see that. I can see that right.
SPEAKER_01:I can understand too.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, I do too. I I do too. And and look, like we're not here to tell you, we're just here talking about these things and trying to figure it out ourselves and see what's right, what's wrong, and um ultimately you're the one who stands before God. I'm the one who stands before God, and so we have to do that. And I love to be able to talk about that stuff because in our society, like we've said before, you just can't talk about these things anymore. People, you people are afraid to get their feelings hurt, and people are afraid to express their opinions without fighting, you know. I think that's what everybody's afraid of is just fighting, making enemies. And unfortunately, that's how a lot of arguments end or discussions end in arguments, I guess. And that's not how it should be. We should be able to talk about these things openly to try and come to a conclusion. These are these are life important events and maybe even eternal life events that we're talking about here on this podcast. And I love that we're able to talk about those things.
SPEAKER_01:I do. I just think I I don't know, I feel like pride's just taken over so many, so many people, so many different individuals where they just feel like they have to be right, and there's no there's no way around it. If they're not right, then you know an argument's gonna ensue. And it doesn't, it doesn't matter the topic. Like you're on social media, like some people argue about the dumbest stuff to me, and I'm like, what is going on? Like, is this dress blue or is it pink? It's like really, like, are we really? Like, I don't know. It's just strange. And and again, I don't know where the the price's coming in at of how it got to this point. I I think obviously social media plays a part of it, um, just because of so many algorithms and how you you it makes you feel like the the other person who's opposite of you is like a complete idiot, just because all you see is your side and what you want to see, and you're you're missing a whole nother side of things because the algorithm doesn't show you. It only shows you kind of what what's happening in your world and not what's happening on the the opposite side of the coin or the other side of the thing. It's just a it's a tough balance. And so I I get it, but I also, you know, you gotta be you do, you gotta be careful, you know. People are you know losing their lives over opinions and stuff like that. So I don't know, it's tough. You want to be bold um and reach people, but you also want to be smart and you know not not do anything that causes somebody to cross the line.
SPEAKER_02:I also think some people, maybe Christians in particular, we try to put a Christian spin on spin on this because all three of us are confessors uh and believers and followers of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, that they have never thought about it from a different perspective or from a Christian perspective, like something like Halloween. But it's something that we need to think about, other things we need to think about, and not have closed minds to not have to think about them, I guess. And uh 2 Timothy 4 2 says, Preach the word, be prepared in season and out of season, correct, rebuke, and encourage with great patience and careful instruction. Uh, Pierre, that that means not trying to win every argument, uh, doing it with love and kindness, I think, Michelle, is what it what it says. And then also it says in Proverbs 28:1, the righteous are as bold as a lion. So just because we think something doesn't mean we have to offend somebody with our thoughts, but we should be able to be prepared and we should have the desire to be bold like a lion to say our thoughts in the midst of evil. Uh, and and uh you kind of alluded to it a little bit, Pierre, I think, with Charlie Kirk and what happened with him. I I I knew who he was, I've had seen some debate things. I'm I'm gonna be honest with you, I'm not a very good debater. I think that's the reason why my wife married me. I really do. She she wins every argument, either because I quit or she just wins. You know, I just it's just how it is. And I I I I so I don't like debates, so I didn't really watch a lot of Charlie Kirk, but the things I did see from him, I was like, well, at least he's standing up for what he believes in. And I I think people's people never want to be proven wrong about something, and that can make enemies very, very quickly, especially in a large environment like he did it in. And he he'd been, you know, talking at college campuses forever for one reason or another. But I think in a large environment, if you get embarrassed in a big environment, you're gonna make enemies very quickly. And and I think that's what Charlie Kirk did, and I think people liked his boldness, but some people just hated hated his boldness as well. It was very strange that he um relationship he had with the crowd.
SPEAKER_01:I just think anything with like a public platform like that. It's just a risk. And you know, unfortunately that happened to him, and uh I didn't really know him too much. I I seen a couple of the debates just on like a a reel or a TikTok or something like that. But it was like I I knew him, followed him, et cetera. I I seen some things that you know I agreed with. I seen some things he said that I disagreed with, but I mean that's off anyone, but you should be able to, again, have freedom of speech and be safe as long as you're not promoting, you know, hate. Um and I think that's where the that's where things are getting crazy because you know, folks are so quickly to get offensive that you know that that promotion of hate is easily twisted, whether it is or not. You can go back to so much in like history for that to take place. You know, we've had you know slavery in our in our country, we've had you know women's rights, we've had all these big moments where people were on both sides of what was good and what was evil, and you know, some felt that you know what they were doing was good when it was bad. So it's hard to just decipher what runs through each individual's minds when they come across things like that. So I don't know, it's tough.
SPEAKER_00:I mean, for me, I I mean literally I've spent when you know when Peter goes down his rabbit holes, I I will sit and sometimes stare at the ceiling thinking through things like things will just keep going through my head. And like I was trying to pinpoint when in my life when all of this seems to have shifted. Like when I was a kid, we had Democrats and Republicans, right? But there wasn't this separation like there is now where it's like there's so much hate and all of this is like you know, they're wrong and we're right on both sides. And it it was always like a debate, but not a split. I don't know how to explain that, but like I don't know, but I I knew there were two different parties, but it wasn't like people necessarily like the way I saw it anyway. It wasn't like it become their identity. And now I feel like it's an identity, it doesn't matter. You know you you have to identify with one of those, and I don't agree with that, and I think it's scary. So like I feel like it started when social when like the internet came about, and especially when social media did, and like Pierre said when we have the the algorithms and such, I think that has literally just done more to separate people than to ever bring anybody together, and it's scary and sad, and I don't know how in this day and time how we bring that back together, truthfully. Like it it's truthfully sad.
SPEAKER_02:No, it it is. Um Paul had a Twitter, half the New Testament would be in subtweets, you know. Just I mean, all over the place there. And and for us with our platform, either whether it's a podcast or on social media or whatever, I think it's a good thing to think about. Uh, are we using our platforms to edify people or just to echo the sentiments that are out there, just to retweet or quote tweet or something? Or are we using the platform to edify folks and to try and educate them to think outside, I don't know, of just their regular box, you know, and to uplift and to and to be spiritual on some matters that are out there. Uh Ephesians 4.29 says, do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouth, but only what is helpful for building others up. And that's the same for social media. That's what we should be doing. And I look, I I could be guilty as as anybody else. I'm not saying I'm perfect. I need to be reminded of these things. And I I listen, uh, I talk, I learn while I talk. So I I have to talk to learn. I I talk to myself. You should hear the dialogues that go on in my head, y'all. It's crazy. All the different voices, too.
unknown:Yep.
SPEAKER_02:It's something I think that that is one of those studies that they have out there that uh we have an inner monologue. Some people have it and some people don't. And I I do not understand how anybody cannot have an inner monologue. Pierre, do you have an inner monologue?
SPEAKER_01:I do. It's pretty calm, though. I don't think it runs well like my wife for sure. I'm not sure. Um yours probably was wild as well, Wes, but me and your wife are connected like that. Pretty pretty locked in to its individual boxes when it's oh that's true.
SPEAKER_02:Uh the uh all right, all right. So uh let's let's see what else was has been going on. Uh you guys probably the the awards, the uh Christian music awards. That did you guys happen to attend those things?
SPEAKER_01:We had in the past, we had this year. Um I did see the news. So we're big fans of Force Frame. I don't know if you know who that is, but he's a he's a bit younger, younger artist. Hold on, hold on, hold on. I gotta stand up and do that little dance. I know he came out and there was a little debate with him because he he didn't attend the the Devil Awards. Uh he had a speech about like not you know accepting trophies ultimately for the work he's doing for Jesus, and I think it was jelly roll kind of had a retort at the Devil Awards towards him.
SPEAKER_02:By the way, I love jelly roll. I used to get him whenever I was a kid at the little hostess store down the road from me. Oh, buddy, little cherry jelly roll things.
SPEAKER_01:So this is actually human, but yeah, uh it's a retort on like kind of how he accepts money. So what's the deal with the trophy? So I don't know, I don't know all the details on that, but it's just interesting because you you get to kind of see some of these Christian artists, you know, fighting their own thoughts and their their own demons. And what I find it really interesting is so you know, the Bible said not to lean into your own understanding, but isn't that ultimately what everyone does? Like that what we're doing, you know, right now on this podcast. Isn't that technically what your pastors are doing every single Sunday with with the word that they're delivering? Um, yeah, some are more educated, but ultimately you're you're leaning into your understanding of what you've been taught or what you've read, and you're then you know portraying that to those that are listening.
SPEAKER_00:Or even your understanding of what you feel like you've received from God after prayer, right? Like it's still your understanding, so it's a really difficult topic.
SPEAKER_01:So I don't know how you don't lean into your own understanding. I know recently, like I've been like I've been locked in on that. Is it ecclesiastic? Ecclesiastics. Ecclesiastics. Either way, however it's pronounced, obviously I'm not a a a scholar here, but it's that that opening, you know, meaningless, meaningless, how it opens in chapter one. And again, I used to think that that was just kind of like dark and saying that life itself was meaningless, but the more you dive into it, it really just tells you how like trying to understand is what the meaningless part is. Like trying to lean into your own understanding, it's meaningless because you will never understand, you know, why the world is the way it is, why people the way are the way they are. You know, the rainfalls on the just and the unjust. There's no there's no right or wrong to it. It's just things just happen. Terrible things happen, good things happen, and there's there's no way of knowing when that's going to take place. And so I feel like Solomon was was on to something who I say is uh, you know, he's the one that asked. He prayed for wisdom, uh, and the Lord granted it to him. And so for him to say that it's kind of meaningless to try to understand things, I think he was on to something because you really just you know stress yourself out, get anxious over things that probably aren't meant for you to understand.
SPEAKER_02:Uh yeah, I hope somebody, whenever they read the the Ecclesiastes, gave Solomon an 800 number right away because that guy, and whenever I go through Ecclesiastes or I listen to it or whatever, I'm always like, Oh, somebody needs to help this fella because this fella cannot find happiness anywhere. But he tried to find happiness everywhere and doing everything, and he had every resource at his fingertips. He had all the money to try everything, he had the the word to be able to do anything he wanted to do. He could just say, do this, and I'll and it'll find happiness, you know, just stuff like that. And he could not find that kind of happiness anywhere. And one of the things we got to remember is that uh, you know, some people meet Jesus in church and others meet him in a Lauren Daigle Bridge, right? That as far as the music goes, or trying to find happiness, or trying to find God, or find trying our find trying to find our place of understanding, people can come to that understanding of God in many different ways and to be edified in many different ways. And we all have talents to be able to give people edification, to give people maybe a little spiritual boost or a spiritual direction. And that's what God depends on us to do. And I think that that is something that we all have to remember, even in those sorrowful times like uh Solomon had in the book of Ecclesiastes. We can read that like you saying, Pierre, and it makes sense to us because we can try to get the biggest house on the highest hill, as Ric Flair would say, in the best neighborhood. Woo! And it just may never satisfy us because there's always a bigger house, a better neighborhood. There's always more money to be had, but there's only one God that's eternal that can give us peace and joy for the rest of our lives.
SPEAKER_00:And you know, you say that, Wes, and literally the thing that's been going through my head for I don't know when was Liv's last volleyball game a week ago, or something like that. So is comparison to the thief of joy. And the reason that has been in my head is for some reason we had this when I wanted to take a picture with Olivia after her last volleyball game, we had this big fight. Like she didn't want to take a picture. I fought with her because like I haven't had one with her all season. Like I don't have this, you know, to have one with you. Anyway, it was this whole big thing. But yeah, when I posted that picture, nobody sees that. They see this is a nice picture of beer, Olivia and I, right? Like that's what people think. We don't see when people post to these things. We've talked about this before. We see their highlights, we see what we we think it is and not what is necessarily behind it, right? And so I think we have to be really careful, especially in these days of social media, to uh really watch that natural comparison that happens because somebody might look at that and think, man, you know, they have a they have a really great family. We do, but we have our issues too, right? Just like anybody else does. And so um, you know, I just kind of wanted to, I don't know. It was laid on my heart to throw that out there. So I just think it's important for someone to hear.
SPEAKER_02:Definitely important for somebody to hear. And I want to emphasize to everybody if you're listening to this podcast and life just feels a little bit rough, if you're driving down the road and hopefully we've been able to uh entertain you, upcur, encourage you, uplift you a little bit. Keep you awake, yeah, keep you awake, yes. You're not not while you're driving. If you're but if you are up at 2 a.m. and you're wondering if God's awake, well, he is, and he doesn't need melatonin to sleep, he is always there waiting to hear you. And in Psalm 4.8, it says, In peace I will lie down and sleep for you alone. Lord, make me dwell in safety. You can count on God to be able to relieve whatever it is those issues are, or to be able to talk to him and to be able to help you through and guide you through. You just might have to listen for the answer a little bit, or look around you for the answer. Maybe the answer is through this podcast, or maybe the answer is through a uh meeting down at some church as they're getting together to celebrate Halloween, you know, as a fall festival, whatever it is that keeps you up at night. And what you got to find those things that'll help you surrender it as well, and find those people that'll help you surrender it. Uh people that'll make you feel comfortable, people that could be around you, that will encourage you, that will uplift you and do all those things for you that God wants you to receive that peace, and He He'll send those people your way, I think.
SPEAKER_01:I agree, and I just say like enjoy those people. I mean, we we've all experienced death. Um, we lost a friend here recently as well, and just the the way that played out was just so awkward, like the the timing of how everything would have had to to fall into place for that accident to take place. But you know, we don't we never know what what what day you know we'll be called home. I think you know we all get distracted with the things of this world and probably try to get distracted just because you don't want to think about the fact that one day, you know, that's gonna be you, which is the case for all of us. But you know, until that day comes, just enjoy, you know, the people that are are brought into your life, you know, try to appreciate them, try love on them. Uh and again, try to have joy. That's that's you know what what God wants you to do. The thief comes to kill, still, destroy, but you know, the the Lord wants you to have you know life and live it to the fullest. So do your best to do that. You know, hug your hug your family, hug your friends, laugh, smile. Just be, right? Just be.
