For the love of books
As being confined at my home, I have gone through my books now that I will (probably) have more time to read.
Next to my first poems published in the Sudden Denouement Anthology Volume I, there it was the black luster of my graduation paper. In the both I have put my passion and toil, sweat and tears.
My graduation year was one of the worst, being squeezed under job worries, preparation for the Post graduate exams, completing my graduation paper and being caught in a troublesome web of love and pain.
While leafing through my thesis I couldn’t imagine how on earth I had the patience and fortitude to set off upon the journey of the Gods through the Victorian Age.
Must be the love for ideals, love for hope, love for Mythology, love for word-work that helped me swam under all worries aided only by the unicorn-blue sheen of the moon onto the leaves of that forlorn summer.
Presently, I am travelling the world with the help of a sack of books and I am rearranging memories upon their shelves.

Business Story – Starbucks
In the early ‘80s, Howard Schultz joined the coffee roasting company, Starbucks, as its Marketing Director. On a business trip to Italy, he became fascinated with the country’s coffee house culture, which emphasized the relationship between the barista and the customer. The preparation and presentation of coffee was treated with reverence, done only by trained professionals. Fascinated with this ritual and the sense of community that he felt in Italy’s coffee houses, Schultz returned to the United States and convinced the Starbucks founders to test the Italian coffee house concept. The idea took off and Howard Schultz changed the trajectory of Starbucks forever.
