Tilling the soil and discovering all the possibilities, the sweet little nothings that reap greater things. We each have our own little garden, striving to grow the fruits of our efforts, to see our ideas sprout and witness the growth of our society. In order to till the soil and plant the seeds to create bigger and better things, the prerequisites include the strength of character and foresight; boundless, endless curiosity driven by discovery – curiosity that feeds on absolutely everything, everywhere, at every turn, incessantly.
