One day, the millennial generation will inherit the planet. If we take a step back and look at the world in a high level view, there are some things that become clear. There seems to be a generational disconnect on how things should work. Almost like the old, and the new. It’s like the world … More The Next America
Everyone feels the tension. There’s an inescapable, lingering stress that our country won’t shed until this election season is over and all ballots have been cast and counted. Regardless of where you stand politically, there is one, transcendant requirement that we all must bear in mind – at our core, we are one. Now obviously, … More When It’s Over: After the Election
I always enjoy talking to creative people. After all, human creativity and ingenuity is what shapes the world we live in.
