In this episode, we talk to Rick DellaRatta. He describes himself as insightful, creative, and empathetic. Rick lives in the United States.
Rick tells us about sitting on a comma while watching the second plane fly into the World Trade Center from a rooftop only one-quarter mile away. During this moment, Rick felt words come through him as he witnessed the events of that day unfold. After recording these words, a poem was birthed that would change the trajectory of his life. While trying to live by the words that fate brought to him, he found a calling to share them with others. Tune in to hear what Rick means when he says “we need to fund peace more than war”.
