  Hello, let's practice intermediate listening.

• 00:06

  Listen first, then shadow along.

• 00:13

  Welcome back to my slow English podcast.

• 00:24

  Want more of a challenge?

• 00:27

  Then speed this video up to 1.25 or 1.5.

• 00:35

  Today, I want to talk about a book.

• 00:40

  I've been reading about nature, gratitude, and the way that we see the world.

• 00:53

  And I think the relationship that we have with languages is pretty similar.

• 01:03

  Sometimes we see English as another course, another subscription, another thing we need to buy.

• 01:17

  To become fluent in English.

• 01:21

  But language isn't a product.

• 01:25

  It's a relationship.

• 01:28

  And I think the moment we start treating English as a relationship, a relationship with people, with stories like mine,

• 01:44

  with culture, with yourself, the moment we start treating language Like a relationship, everything changes.

• 01:57

  So today, while you practice your listening with me or shadowing, whichever one you prefer,

• 02:27

  I also want you to think about the relationship you have with the world around you.

• 02:37

  So this book...

• 02:40

  Really changed my perspective.

• 02:43

  It changed the way I see the world.

• 02:47

  It changed how I treat the world.
