Insecurities

Kurt Rawlings; his name is the epitome of confidence, wealth and all that follows such characteristics, but all of these and more is the exact opposite of what he's not.

A smart cookie he was but an open, confident, assertive man he was not. He did not know where it all came from or maybe he was just born with it. He could not break from the shackles that bound him from being truly free.

His one dream was not to excel or own everything in life rather, it was to be able to start and hold conversations with the ease others had.

All of these seemed impossible until he had a fateful encounter with Kwaku Mensah who changed his world in more than one way.
