Yes, Katie – I agree that Bridget is a treasure. I recently interviewed her for the UnitingCreatives.com radio program and she really helped me understand the deeper impact of war on our entire culture; and how it is affecting families, our community and so much more. Just understanding that over a million warriors are coming back from Iraq and Afghanistan means that multiple millions of people will be impacted by the PTSD and combat stress effects on their families and then, in turn everyone else.
Blessings to all our warriors, and I thank heaven for Bridget and all she is doing to bring harmony to our troops, their families and our world.
