Insight Pt. 2: PHILLY TRUCE, Just Me Wan

When I was in high school, I knew by reputation about an extraordinary young man.  He was one grade up – I was a sophomore, and he was a junior at Potomac Sr. High School in PG County Maryland.  He was president of his class and an award-winning track star.  He seemed to have everything, popular smart handsome and an athlete.  One evening in the basement of his home – this boy took his life.  The school was stunned.  With so many cases of self-inflicted death – there are no easy reasons why.  In this case we later learned that the young man had an inoperable brain tumor and that it had plunged him into a deep depression.  In today’s show I speak to a talented artist and Pastor Just me Wan who wrote a song after a relative took her life.  I speak to Her about her music and herpowerful  message.
