Introduction If you ask me, life really begins at Mach 1. If you haven't been there, you've missed one of the most profound manifestation of our existence on planet earth. Sometimes, however, life takes on such a turn that even years of gruelling training can't prepare you enough for it. Having switched from the Battlefield to the Boardroom, its an alien territory that I'm flying in. However, it wouldn't be too long before I smoothly transition over to the other side. Zephyr In The Sky is my attempt to keep a repertoire of my happenstances in life.
