LETTER FROM THE PUBLISHER

CHANGE Is Change inevitable? Is Change good? More importantly, is it necessary? Well, the fact of the matter is, if you’re not changing, you’re not growing. And if you’re not growing, you’re not living. Our motto is let’s Change for the better. Martin Luther King, Jr wrote “Change does not roll in on the wheels on inevitability, but comes through continuous struggle. And so we must straighten our backs and work for our freedom. A man can’t ride you unless your back is bent” We can also change from within by becoming the best version of ourselves we can be. That means staying positive, passionate and curious while sharing those qualities with our friends, our colleagues and our kids. Change what? I don’t know. Only you can answer that. But I do know that the real change requires us to leave behind a part of ourselves and we must die to one life before we can enter another. Food for thought.
