to fail, to let go of fears of failing because you did not do “enough” when the question is whether you can trust yourself enough to trust others to run things for you…

too often, sometimes, we convince ourselves, however misguidedly, that it is only through my due diligence that things can get done when in fact, things have been done without me in the bigger picture. (Give me a break!)

this has been how it is at The Warehouse—-this baby of a cafe/bistro venture of Julius and I. Now that we are officially cleared by the City to open (since October 1st), we often get too anxious about getting it going. But as with everything (like child having/rearing/raising), it takes TIME. TIME. Stop time. Be patient. Have patience.

Here are some of the best-captured photos from The Warehouse’s events…and of course, my pic is in it. Are u kidding me?
