In this day-and-age, an opinion is as common as a penny. And, it’s it hold as much value as you give it. Some days I need an extra penny. Other days it’s just taking up space in my pocket.
In conversation, many have expressed their displeasure for the city of Los Angeles—knowing full well the love and admiration I have for el ay. I’ll forgo the specifics and just let google be your guide to the op-eds, blogs, and media that cover the sprawling metropolis.

It took a chance on a kid with a guitar, gave him lessons and gave him his livelihood. It found a guy walking the streets with a camera and a phone and offered him a view inside the culinary world. It allowed this guy to listen from the pew and hear His word.

I understand Los Angeles is not for everyone.
And, that’s okay with me.
