In my last post on the topic of communications, I pretty much said that no one is obligated to have to talk to anyone else if they know there are divergent beliefs where no one will change their mind unless it’s work related and things have to get done. Today I’m going to add to [...]
As I was reading more lies about President Obama a few days ago regarding whether or not he’s a Muslim or Christian and some of the other things people still believe about him proven or not, I came to a realization that I’ve always suspected I had, but finally was ready to articulate.
