Diving into unknown deep water is believing that whatever lies there is worth experiencing. The chance you may not resurface is what keeps you in shallow waters. But the amount of fear you are willing to overcome is not in the water, but in your desire to know your own…

Sometimes there is nothing to say. Other times there are words which must be said. And at times we don’t speak when we should and do when we shouldn’t. But in each instance, it is an interaction which either connects or divides. What we convey to others builds bridges to…
