  Wow I feel so honoured that one of our connections loved my poem so much that he included it on one of his pages! What an amazing feeling it is to have this happen :) Endre felt my poem " In Our Midst " suited his podcast's theme very well - the theme being: become the hero that you are seeking.  This poem was published many times in various magazines and was in fact included in Rhythm & Rhyme , book 2 of our  Playing With Words poetry series.  Endre reached out to let me know that the included the poem in the description of his podcast! *Scroll down in the description area just a little to find the poem.  https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLWq_PsHNBrOXlgs9X6ir-LGrUTazGp3Ee https://www.amazon.com/stores/author/B0845RLK1X    (US) https://www.amazon.ca/stores/author/B0845RLK1X    (Canada)  

The  Recommended Resources  series has been published on this blog since we transferred it from the  Brummet's Muse  biweekly newsletter that ran for 6 years or so, many years ago. When we closed it down, we decided that we just had to continue this series here on this blog and have been doing so now for nearly 2 decades. With this series, Dave and I have the pleasure of sharing some great resources which can include  - positive impact organizations and events - citizen science projects  - helpful articles, amazing resources & exciting interviews We hope our readers will reach out to thank them for their work, find a way to network with them, share these sites with others or get involved in some way. ** Want to see a non-profit listed here? - Send us a FaceBook or LinkedIn message.

" Rest is not idleness,  and to lie sometimes  on the grass  under trees  on a summer's day,  listening to the murmur of the water,  or watching the clouds float across the sky,  is by no means  a waste of time." ~ John Lubbock ~~~     Follow us & find our Books:   on Amazon Visit:   Drum It With Brummet Blog Subscribe:   Brummet Media​ YouTube Channel​  ​ ~~~  

Endre Hoffman and I met back in 2023 and it wasn't long before I had become a subscriber to his YouTube Channel and we started networking soon afterwards.  Endre is the fella behind both the Dr. Of Self-Worth coaching services, and the Heroes Podcast  - where I dropped in for a conversation recently. I was so excited to be a guest because this show is all about becoming your own hero, and then becoming strong enough to create positive change.  Honestly - upon listening to the interview (once it was published) I realized just how powerful this discussion ended up being. As a viewer, I loved watching the host smile and respond - something I didn't notice during the recording of the interview. I have to say that Endre made me feel comfortable as we delved deep into how dark experiences help us evolve, and closed with valuable entrepreneur advice.  I think listeners will feel that the conversation was - overall - uplifting, encouraging and informative.
