lessons learned

I'm learning some new lessons in my life:

- though loyalty is a truly admirable attribute, it can also borderline on stupidity

- if your gut is telling you it's not a good move, then go with your gut

- what's really at the root of everything is your emotions

- masks are only good to the people they fool

- money truly is what makes the world go round

- when you delegate you need to trust

- be careful who you trust

- redemption cannot happen without the forgiveness to go along with it
