How is already nearly Thanksgiving?! This month has flown by, and I’m ready for the short week to proceed. I’m already knee-deep in the holiday spirit (with Christmas music being my soundtrack since early November), so I’m itching for everything to “officially” kick off.
That said, TODAY — I have a pretty fascinating set of articles for your consideration. (I had a lot of fun putting this one together!) With the Democratic primary heating up, there are thoughts and opinions coming in from all angles, and I tried to capture them all.
Plus, some fun, because we can’t be all work and no play, right?
Note: As a disclaimer, I want to say that the links I share below do not necessarily reflect my own views, either politically or personally. Some are left leaning, some are right leaning, some are more in the middle. I am constantly challenging myself to consider issues from all angles, and these links reflect this challenge.
Secondary note: Additionally, I want to take this moment to encourage you to share feedback/thoughts of your own in the comments section. I’m sincerely up for open dialogue and the sharing of opinions and ideas. That said, whether in agreement or criticism, please always treat each other with mutual respect.
