ABOUT THIS SHOW: Today’s show is short but certainly to the point. I have been holding back for an exceptionally long time but can no longer keep my convictions to myself. In this noticeably short episode, I will address what justice isn’t and the madness that has become the norm in so many parts of our country. This goes out to all of us, starting with myself. I do not care if you are liberal, conservative, believe in God or claim to be agnostic or an atheist. What does matter is that you can consider what is being shared here and are not so closed minded that you can’t see beyond your own agenda. For the next few minutes If you can set aside your anger and personal right fighting, and take to heart what is shared, it just may speak to your spirit in a solution focused manner. Listen and then listen again. Listen and share. I dare ya!
