PTSD becamedefined. A few years ago, I befriended ‘Cozmo,’ a relatively recent formerMarine who left service with severe PTSD. I was beginning to learn and feel.Then last week, I Zoomed with Yishay; introduced to me by publisher, author AnnMarie Sabath. What enveloped me was Yishay’s introspection, warmth, reality,pain, mission, honesty, humanity, creativity, former addiction, survival,shame, healing, resilience, redemption, authenticity, and depth. Swirlingaround like beams of light through a window shade was the notion of humanity.We’re all just here on this globe. I threw those several words out there; mytakeaway from Yishay. Maybe yours. A powerful interview. And his new book ‘DOG’will surprise you, especially the narrator.” Calvinhttps://www.youtube.com/c/ConversationswithCalvinWetheSpecIEs652 Interviews/Videos  9200 SUBSCRIBERSGLOBAL Reach. Earth Life.
