Trust Fall
031317 Being vulnerable to trust is ironically the first thing I learned from a business school when we were first forming our learning teams during our first day.

Reflections of Life #8: The Mask
021503 In the darkness of the night, He is searching for the light. Amidst the coldness of the night, He covers up his fright. His soul is lost and tired, His heart thirsty for what it has cried.
