In My Humble Opinion

5 episodes - English - Latest episode: over 4 years ago -

I know some people, institution or an organization may feel it's bigoted, ill-informed and offensive, but I'm going to say it anyway This Podcast is IMHO word that carries a connotation of "I'm not stating this as a to offend anyone.

I will try using non-emotive and non-confrontational language as much as I can.

So it does become important to step back, reflect, start from basics and argue my views and perspective.

ADAPTABLE, INDESTRUCTIBLE LIKE WATER

**ADAPTABLE, INDESTRUCTIBLE: WHY WE NEED TO BE LIKE WATER** The word “change” always fills us with fear even if we do not acknowledge it. As humans, we love the perception of continuity, of everything remaining as they are. Thus, when with time we realize that changes have occurred we reminisce for “those good old days”.
