The Drive of Curiosity

Imagination, passion, potential

Reading, for me, was the catalyst to this all – a key to unlocking the power of imagination, passion, and potential. To this day, there is nothing more pleasing to me than a great story, cup of coffee, and the liberty to enter into another person’s view of the world.

As I grow older, there are three lessons which appear more important than ever: empathy, context, and perspective.  Try to understand where someone is coming from, authentically, through being present in their story. Try to see the foundation on which a message is being delivered, and finally, understand that all of us view the world from a particular place.
