Episode 6: All God's Children - a podcast by Don Martinez

Download Episode! All God's Children is a gentle reminder that we are all one in the same.  As so many are aware, this election cycle has been nothing short of crazy.  Flaring tempers, fights among family and friends and hurt feelings have all become commonplace.  Our world around is rapidly changing.  No matter which side of the aisle you are on, we can all agree that things have changed.  During the last week, we have seen protests erupt and in some cases, violence and hate have ensued.  It is a frightening time for ALL of us.  At a time we need to come together, our differences are dividing us.  As a nation we are becoming increasingly fractured, rather than standing united. Among all of this uncertainty, we still have to live our lives and follow our dreams.  One listener suggested a discussion about hate and change and I could not have agreed more that it was a discussion that needed to happen.  Hence, the birth of this episode.  Both sides of the aisle have exploded into arguments and at times animosity.  People are fearful of change, of an uncertain future.  The question becomes, how do we protect ourselves and those we love during this time?  During these scary times, how do we stay true to ourselves?  When we are angry and hurting, how do we continue to love? So many questions remain.  Today's episode won't answer them all, as I do not have all the answers.  However, together, maybe we can start building a future together and start learning to appreciate ourselves and those around us.  Maybe we will learn to embrace and celebrate our diversity, and use it to grow.   I truly believe we can learn that our diversity does not have to divide us, but can unify and make us stronger in the end. I hope that you enjoy this episode and that it inspires you toward a brighter future! Special thanks to one of the listeners, Jen, who suggested this topic today!
