Book Review: "The Courage To Be Free" By Ron DeSantis

 

Whenever I read political books I hope there's less of the word, "ME" and more of the word "US."

Sadly, all too often we here the single format used in discussing everything leading up to another bid and this time for President.

The timing of this leaves much to be desired as we clearly see the writing on the walls however, with this said he does discuss a variety of topics and how great he was in achieving success.

It's not often we here about what he'd like to do for Florida, how he'd like to improve their quality of life, what he'd like to do about their concerns on how the state is handling its affairs but we do receive plenty about his career, his college degrees, his shut down of the pandemic, his inflated ego about Disney and so much more.

For me, having married a malignant narcissist and being left bankrupt, homeless, and LT unemployed in extreme poverty with three kids from the 11 yr union and as a counselor for those experiencing or have had experienced the same is that the best thing to do is not put the spotlight on them, to not allow the power/control to override the decision making processes, and to attempt to lessen contact with boundaries both professional and personal.

This to me is the best advice I can offer as it's a scary time in politics and the constant bombardment and take aways from history is not what our country needs.

I'd be thrilled if he mentioned unity, cohesion, accountability, responsibility, or even an attempt to work across the aisle but if he mentioned in audio then it must've been missed as I can't recall.

Thank you bibliotheca for another great audio.
