The internet is a good source of information. It's also a great place to find information about things you are interested in. It also has a lot of information, and it makes it easy to access that information.
The internet can be used as a tool to confirm your beliefs, but it also has the potential to spread false information. We all know that the internet is a great tool for getting information and connecting with people, but it can also lead us astray if we're not careful. In today’s episode, we will discuss the magical place where you are always right.

Today it is my joy to bring you an interview. I know many of you will have heard me talk over these months about Joan, the head book buyer for the largest book chain in New Zealand, Whitcoulls.

I hope you enjoy this interview. You can also watch this interview on my Youtube channel. 

This morning I woke from a dream. My dream was extremely vivid and reminded me of an important lesson about staying true to myself.
