Wonderful song recommendation!

I so resonate with the child and admire the flexibility of their brain at that young age. In a world so diverse as ours there are countless ways to flow, well, with live. I recently went to a business trip, the company arranged a lot of activities for us for a whole weekend, and of course drinks.

Talking with one my colleagues which for religious reasons have prohibited alcohol and anything related to the activity of drinking, I realized what it was for me a well planned excursion, for him and others was not the case. The following moved me a little, he said: "I guess the organizers forgot that not everyone likes to party as they do, but I am afraid to mention anything since we are a minority here and everyone seems to be having a great time...".

I encourage him to mention it, and I appreciated the feedback since I am also one of the organizers for similar events within the company, so I could take it into account for future plannings.

After reading this newsletter, I immediately went back to that memory and said, "it's ok to be yourself", sometimes we forget.
