"your supervisor may emphasize planning and resource management, supporting corporate goals, managing risk, and accepting final accountability for your unit. Your employees likely have  a different view: they look to you to organize and direct the group's strategic goals, support them as they accomplish tasks, solve problems, and answer questions decisively, and facilitate their long- term growth"

A Dream

The door opened
to a man in a
sea of chains
with akey

sparsely
back in black


What you want to be known for?

"You reach a point in your life when you start recognizing that your time is limited. And you realize that what matters is more than just your own achievements. Its the legacy. And the legacy in itself is the achievement and what you want to be known for."- Kathy Mazzarella, Graybar


You could reach this point when you lose a loved one.

Photographs of the famous by Felix Nadar

pressing against the right ear
The head above was big and male
After extending the hand the
neck had to be elongated

the hand could be from the
side of the body turned
the face didnt have to face us

I reversed the front of the face
to the twisted back
Now shes reclaimed

standing
seems in motion
