Listen "September 20th, 2010: Killing Cows and Making Burgers"
Episode Synopsis
For episode 27, we are back with an online journal entry, as I have mentioned before, you can follow the breadcrumbs, find my blogspot and enjoy all the tea I've served there for years. Or just wait for the good shh to hit Queen Shh Podcast! This entry is called "Killing Cows and Making Burgers". It comes from 2010, and it was heavily inspired by a line Lady Gaga says to Beyonce in the "Telephone" music video. The phrase stuck with me and it's a needed check in point for me, so here in 2025 I am checking in on my progress with killing the cows and making burgers. Key themes from reflection on this entry: Listen. God, life, the universe, our higher selves are sources reminding us of who we are and who we are destined to be but also connecting us in ways we never thought possible. Listening to the whispers and then quieting and challenging limiting beliefs can be one of the most rewarding things in life. The prep time is over. . . The moment you arrive is the moment you arrive! So don't cower or step back when it's your moment. People want to celebrate you and spend time with you, breathe your air. So, in the words of Mel Robbins, LET THEM!! More than a conqueror. God first, always. There was a quote in a recent sermon that said, "what is explained as strategic is experiences as surrender". A WHOLE WORD from Pastor Stephen Furtick! That part, that part, that part! I am a creator, a creative and not a robot. I am real. Mind you I wrote this well before all of the AI stuff was hitting, this is 2010 and I'm saying I'm not a robot. Why, because creators know first and we early adopt to things that will stay and remain. Time to take action and make that burger. . .i had a couple setbacks and shiny objects that distracted me. I've known longtime that my distractions often come in amazing packages, but the dream is to be lived now. Right now!! And with that, let's go live them! Onward and upward, the learning will continue and so will the level up! Part of being a Queen is fulfilling your God given destiny. It is imperative that we trust ourselves and carry out the vision God gave us, with courage and an unapologetic urgency and grace. - What whispers are you ignoring? - What would happen if you listened to the whispers and gave it your all? - What and who are just "noise" in your life? How can you filter them out? Author, poet, spoken word artist and emcee Opal Ellyse has been keeping handwritten journals since 1995.
