This is an uncharacteristically short (just 15 minutes) podcast whose purpose is to introduce a new song written and performed by Peter Link. It's a love song with an unexpected ending. It's one of those sad but...

Troubles Be Gone – How to get through it…

I had had a rough day. The things that were supposed to happen, didn’t happen. The things that never were supposed to happen, happened. It happens to all of us.

From the New York Times: Quote: “Much Ado About Nothing is a feast! Joseph Papp’s 1972 CBS television production of the New York Shakespeare Festival’s staging of Shakespeare’s rollicking comedy is brassy, bouncy, and all–together entertaining.

I woke up one morning and realized that my past, on Planet Earth, was probably longer than my future – that there was more time that lay behind than what lies ahead. But then again, I believe deeply in life eternal. So, what’s to worry? 


But … Just what is it that goes on? What stays behind? Where do I go from here? Heaven knows ...

How still we see thee lie
