Who do we give thanks for? It's NOT people who are out for themselves, who build wealth in money, power and influence. We give thanks for people think of others, who build wealth in the goodwill of others. If you think too much about yourself, now's the time to change. We talk about giving thanks from a spiritual sense but also in a worldly sense, in keeping with the title of the podcast. You're also given an assignment at the end - to spend your Thanksgiving building relationships with others - instead of just lying around after big meal (and did you thank the cook(s)?

Cooking is spiritual. Good food contains the love and passion of the cook in addition to quality ingredients. Jibril talks about his work as a chef and how he embodied his love and passion into this artform. We talk about the alchemy of cooking and how it relates to developing someone spiritually, as well as how one's emotions actually do become part of the dishes being prepared.

"Inshallah" or "God willing" - what does it mean and how is it being used? Also, at what point, when we're doing everything WE can do to help a loved one, do we turn over things to the spiritual? Jibril and Mark talk about different aspects of living life based on your perspective versus being led.
