I fall in love with people as soon as I meet them.
Don’t get me wrong tho... this comes with exceptions
But my heart has been visible on my sleeve since I can remember
Like the birth marks covering my uneven skin or the bruise you put there
I fall in love with warm greetings
I fall in love with charming smiles & witty humor. I fall in love with the potential I see in you in those initial moments.
Ya know, when people hide all their baggage & bullshit
Problem with that is most people don’t deserve to see my heart but it’s always been right there. Visible to the world. Ready to be used.
Abused.
Manipulated.
On my sleeve. Beating & pumping.
When it should be in my chest being protected at all costs.

The Gen Z Entrepreneurial Revolution
It is hardly debatable that the world has always been run by a bunch of aging dinosaurs, mostly male, who refuse to allow the younger generation to bring about changes. Politicians and leaders everywhere refuse to release the reigns of creativity and leadership until they are dead or dying. It is time to give the young a chance to revolutionize and change the entire landscape of their existence. Those of us with one foot in the grave, so to speak, should wake up and realize that we are not the ones who will be living in the world in the years to come.
