The Window and the Mirrror
Window and mirror are two important objects that we use almost on a daily basis. They are both made of glass but have different uses by virtue of their design. In my interpretation, we see the world through the latter... Continue reading

Don't rob us of your best self
You don't do the world (around you) any good by withholding your best self from expression. And infact, it is not humility. Far from it. Part of true living is to know that people may feel insecure around you but... Continue reading
