Time is not a river to be damned, but a current to be joined, not a mountain to be conquered,

but a dance partner waiting for you to find the rhythm.

Welcome to Seven Good Minutes. I'm Clyde Lee Dennis. Thanks for joining me for what I believe will be seven of the most enriching minutes of your day.
