About Life

“Exactly why did you pick me?” “Because you paid attention,” Yewell stated. “Do you think you’re the only one we’ve sent messages to? That’s our entire mission here: to speak to your people.” “About what?” “About life.” “I thought you wanted me to write about marketing?” “We do.” “So what’s that have to do with [...]

It describes the needs that each human faces, and once a person has fulfilled a specific need, he is then consciously (or subconsciously) able to progress in meeting the next need. When I was first introduced to them in college, I was aware of [...]

The Arrival

I found the address on Orange Avenue and looked again at what I had scribbled. Surely enough, the address was correct, but the sign on the building said “Life Skills Institute.” This couldn’t be the right place. I stared at the building for a moment and considered my options as my fingers drummed the steering [...]
