Last days and farewells around, and another beginning.

So much given and blessed from the people in the time at Silicon Valley.
Time flew and came to wrap up the life in the Silicon Valley.
Hidden heroes are many in places in the places I visited in my life.

Mural Research and Meeting in San Francisco, People who share the common values

At the Tenderloin of the San Francisco, I have met the most inspiring people for the start-up journey in the Silicon Valley.


The Tenderloin museum is located at the mid-area of San Francisco. It is also considered to be the "ghetto" area of the town.

San Francisco based muralist, Mona Caron, has drawn several murals in the town. And her documentary film crew made the whole mural painting process and its remarkable and unique story into a film.


The place may be left as a ghetto, but artists didn't let it happen.
Their soundless voice is echoing from their artwork on the mute walls.


These murals in this place contains real people and story of the residents in the ghetto and their connection with the mural artists.

Stop over at Cincinnati History Museum

All development of a life has a history. A country, city, and person.

Cincinnati is one of the key places of transportation 

during the 19th and 20th century of the U.S.

I see that pioneer-ship and entrepreneurship have much thing in common.
Keeping a keen sense of history of human lives can become 

a helpful source of growing as an entrepreneur.

Food for thought

Am I making even a difference in history of my life? and to the world?

and it continues until today.
