Chet, Pray you are feeling better...along with our fellow bandmate, KA. Health? Damn. Damn. Damn. I'm sick. As hell. Sounds like we got doubled tapped by the same bug. Love you. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/bx1IcND-Kak

Leaders are believers. Leaders are connectors.
I sat with this for over a week. Language is always a limiting factor when speaking about the indescribable. It is one of the reasons that Jesus taught in parables.

You have an issue. It is going to require boxes of tissue to clean up. Teaching combat trauma in Iraq in 2006. At the time, it was the most violent place on earth.
