Roots (excerpt)


And so i stand,

With these threads in hand-
Of the various thoughts 
I researched and chased fervently
Trying to quench my thirst over the years...

The tapestry is waiting for you to pick up threads and describe your part of the elephant...so we can all see the big picture. 

Together.

That's why storytelling is vitally important.
