Dear Raymundo Harrelli,
I think you told me about Stokes some years ago. Or am I thinking of someone else? I hear you. Such a waste of true and productive talent. But we live in a world and culture where money and its accumulation is king. And in a world and culture which adores individual selfishness and calls it good. It is not a world that I wish to be part of, and so I live my life differently and in the pursuit of different values. But then, I have a foreign name....
