I grew up loving words. I loved reading books. I chose to study literature in high school and then in university. I was drawn to the stories, the worlds they opened for me and people to whom they connected me. Numbers, on the other hand, not so much. To me, numbers always seemed cold, empty and a bit intimidating. There was only one right answer and so many easy mistakes to make in the process. They represented structure and rigidity where Literature represented creativity and flow.
