The beauty of life, the wonder of living, is that we share creativity, intelligence and unlimited potential with the rest of humanity. To realize that we are not simply physical beings on a material planet, but whole beings, each related to all of life in intimate, profound ways should radically transform how we perceive ourselves, our environment and our social problems.
The conversations and stories heard on The Richard Brendan Show … Bringing Love to Life served toward that end.
