Seek Christ, not suicide
The AP, USA Today, Huffington Post, New York Times, among others, are reporting on suicide, a sad, alarming situation, last reported in-depth in the 90s. They’re quoting experts in suicide prevention. While so-called pundits encourage calling the many suicide prevention centers, hotlines, reporters are warned in effort to avoid copycat suicides, to keep people from committing suicides.

A developer’s dream
We were once Florida’s best kept secret, but the word got out that Navarre is paradise. And people loved it here and decided to move here. Now our developers can barely keep up with demand. That’s a great thing – right? No.

Sometimes you hit that point in the summer where you have no clue what to put into the space set aside for your column.

No regrets?
In the most recent debate, District 4 Commissioner and candidate for re-election Rob Williamson was asked by candidate Dave Piech if he had any regrets in the nearly four years that he has served as county commissioner. The question seemed to be a gift to Rob – a chance for Rob to redeem himself. The answer from Rob was a round-about no. But he didn’t come right out and say “no” at first. He beat around the proverbial bush…he said he is a flawed man, didn’t always get it right and said he doesn’t look in the rearview mirror. However, when asked again he said, “No, I’m good.”

Out and About
Fourth of July at Navarre Beach was the most patriotic event I can remember in my years in Navarre. The Navarre Beach Fourth of July Hometown Celebration and Children’s Parade was pure magic with more than 100 children participating in the parade. They decorated tricycles, bicycles, batons, children and even a little front-end loader and paraded around the parking lot led by the Cat Country 98.7 Cat and Jenna Scott to patriotic tunes compliments of Systems of Sound (Bob Levison).

Leading with the truth
We commend District 4 Commissioner Rob Williamson on his latest video. It is powerful, emotional and he speaks publicly on a very private issue – addiction. He has never made a secret of his alcohol addiction. And now he has disclosed he was “using” as well. We applaud his recovery and his claim of 10 years of sobriety.
