The New Day One of the greatest inspirational songs I’ve ever heard was one that WETA-FM in Washington, DC played every morning at 6:00 am for many years. I’m not sure if they still do, but in those early training school days of my retail career, I was up in suit-and-tie and on my way ...]]> http://sacredpauses.com/2011/12/the-new-day/feed/ 0 http://sacredpauses.com/2011/12/a-little-traveling-music/#utm_source=feed&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=feed http://sacredpauses.com/2011/12/a-little-traveling-music/#comments Tue, 13 Dec 2011 18:52:00 +0000 Scribe http://sacredpauses.com/?p=1113 A Little Traveling Music
