I hope that when you, dear listeners, hear interviews, like today's chat with Michael, keep in mind that there is always hope even when things may seem to be at their most dire or bleak.  It's certainly not the easiest thing to focus on in hard times, but trust me, it's there. Just have a listen to Michael's show, and that idea is confirmed.Plus, he brings a level of empathy and relatability, through the events in his own personal life. Maybe shows like this will inspire you. Right now, I'm inspired. To fix myself some lunch. Hey, writing positive things build up my appetite, what can I say?
