If there is one thing I have recently learnt to appreciate, is seeing the beauty in small. Haven’t you realized the only way to hear the sweet and subtle sounds of nature, you must learn to quiet down everything around you, to listen to the melodious sounds of the birds and to the shape shifting breeze of the trees.

2017 began on an interesting note for me. After doing some work, behind the shadows I was all of a sudden catapulted in to the limelight. I was taking up more leadership roles, aggressively working to ensure I performed at work and doing all that I could to stay ahead in every area of my life. This of course came with recognition from friends, to acquaintances to complete strangers. I imagine sometimes, one might perceive me as someone who has “made it”. In fact I might as well believed it for myself as well.
