Take a moment and stop. Stop fearing, and fussing, and wondering what's next. Take a moment to delight in the absurd and indulge in the present. Write a poem. Sing a song. If these are already your habits, share them with another, encourage the creation of art. This is a podcast framed by the sentimental, silly mind of a man who lives heart first and is forever curious. Above all, he is a poet and storyteller. His name is Alex, but his friends call him the wandering monk.
