Episode 129: "What Does It Mean to Shine?"

Suicide prevention is more than posting the number for a hotline. On Fred's Front Porch, I often discuss the idea that was can all Shine in our own ways. I've never really explained what I mean by that, though. To Shine means to "be there" for someone, whether that means in person, or in a piece of Art, or in any other way that works for you and them. I was inspired by my favorite hymn, 'Shine," by Sara Niemietz. The video is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UBQfGBbVImQ The album is here.
