Diversity is all around us, yet we are more often fearful, or resistant of diversity, we struggle against anything that doesn't fit our perception of what is "normal" or or what we would consider "best". However, without diversity in all around us, we would not have the amazing life we now enjoy! See why diversity brings success and happiness in life, and why we should be anxious to embrace it!

Have a listen, and please, let me know what you think on Facebook and watch for me on Rumble! Merry Christmas!
It was a most devastating time in the worlds history, one of the most costly wars in human blood in earths history. But in December 1914, Christmas, with its deep meaning of Kindness, Forgiveness, and Love of All overcame the men fighting for their respective countries. The Spirit of Christmas - the Spirit of Christ - led some men to do what others would not do - risk their lives, disobey orders from Superiors, to pay tribute to the reason for this season, and have a little fun. Andrew Hamilton joins me, the Grandson of late Robert Hamilton, Captain of the British regiment, who played an integral role in the unfolding of the miraculous 1914 Christmas Truce.
In our society where we have so much and are increasingly connected through digital devices, we have become, ironically, more unaware and more disconnected within ourselves failing to see all that we have. GRATITUDE is the antidote to these, ills. Gratitude helps us to see things as they really are - that while there is negative in our lives, there is actually, much more of good! Listen with me and see what you can do to ELEVATE your life through the Powerful Life Principle of Gratitude this Thanksgiving!
Kindness is a worthwhile principle to develop in our lives that will increase the depth of our relationships with individuals and communities. Kindness is the bridge that transcends differences and difficulties and links us together in more love and allows understanding to be built. However, we often find ourselves not doing good and right things because we have confused what kindness actually is...Kindness does not avoid potentially uncomfortable situations, especially when values and truth is on the line. But kindness describes HOW we will approach, address, and put forward our insights and values. Have a listen to this podcast and see what you feel about this side of Kindness, and how it may elevate your life and the lives of those around you!
Relationships are what make life amazing and wonderful, but many times relationships become damaged because of what we, or others, do. All too often, we allow this damage to continue for days, months, or years and we miss out on amazing experiences! It doesn't have to be this way! In this Lifecast you will hear the amazing story of Andrew Cullen and Jameel McGee. Andrew was a bad cop, and Jameel an innocent man, who was imprisoned for 4 years by Andrew wrongfully. Listen to learn of their amazing personal transformations, and how they chose to come together and became the best of friends by truly reconciling.

The quest for Liberty and Equality has been Human Kinds greatest quest, spanning centuries, and every major civilization in history. I commemorate Martin Luther King, Jr, who, at the age of 34, on the heels of the American Declaration of Independence - ending the dark ages of Monarchy - and the Emancipation Proclamation of 1863, delivered the most rousing, articulate, and comprehensive, speech ever given on these most sought after pearls! Paralleled only by Fredrick G. Douglas 4th of July speech in 1852, Dr. King, colored more than the principles of Liberty and Equality for all, he set a vision and plan which showed a resilient faith that saw past what was in his day a matter of fact, to what could, and WOULD BE...and it still applies today!
