What's Your Jihad?
What is in your heart and mind the drives you, inspires you, transforms your world?
Me? Well, researching stories, lining up guests, producing 'Air Cascadia', for one. It takes a lot longer to 'write short' than to 'write long'. Mark Twain famously said, "I would have written you a shoter letter but I didn't have time." Alternately, I could also say 'Squirrel Farm', a living, breathing 'Food Forest' and a 3-D paradigm for a permatural approach to life. And my answer to the question, 'What's your Jihad?' might be as simple as 'Kindness': I strive to be kind.
So, what's your Jihad? And those close to you, friends, family, co-workers, ask them What's your Jihad? Get that beautiful, forbidden, hot-button word out in the Loud. Voice by voice by voice by voice...it adds up to a clarion call for understanding, communication and sharing our common truth.
The more you use it, the more you defuse it.
