Today I interview my friend Jarid Simington, author of A DEEPER LOOK. Jarid embodies the idea of The Pursuit of Happiness. He has been on a personal journey of letting go of the old ideas that held him captive and discovering the power of intention, purpose and spirit. Find his book on Amazon -https://www.amazon.com/s?k=a+deeper+look+jarid+simington&i=stripbooks&crid=2CB3OYRRJ93DX&sprefix=a+deeper+look+jarid+simington%2Cstripbooks%2C181&ref=nb_sb_noss

In 1968 this obscure 500 page book made its bull-horn call for help while waving a massive red flag to alert the unsuspecting freedom loving American of impending doom. 1968 was an eventful year, including many hot issues involving Socialism, Communism, corruption and war. Plenty of distractions I’m sure. It is clear to me today that the message was not received. In fact as I write this today July 2023 the forces of Marx and the Fabian Socialists are inching ever closer to their goal -World Socialism. Please do your own research.

Today I visit with my friend, brother in Christ, Gary McClure. I'm sharing with him the concept for the show and learning what the pursuit of happiness means to him.

I’ve been excited to launch a new podcast and thinking a lot about what avenues to go down and what to call it. I found inspiration today while reading the Declaration of Independence, the statement, life, liberty, and (the pursuit of happiness.) boom! it came to me that that’s what we’re all seeking.
