Manila, Philippines whats good?! Beyond, beyond is in its final days before we finally debut it to the world. And before we do, I personally want to invite you to embark on a passionate journey into a lost art -- reading. This book was introduced to me by Nimbus in 2006. It's a very short book written by a very introspective author and which you can finish in an hour or so. Me, Nimbus, Mike Swift & Chrizo are fans of this book. Why? Read it.

and thus distance himself from his companions.
Therefore, he throws the two signs to the floor,
Therefore, he throws the two signs to the floor,
even if he thinks they may contain a grain of truth.
The signs crumble into dust,
and the warrior continues to encourage those nearest him."
