Q: What are you most passionate about in your life?
A: Life is all about learning. The day you stop learning, is the day you stop living. This passion for learning has kept me alive.

A: There are two actually.

Q: What are your special interests, hobbies, or collections?

Answers for its members it’s not just about the contributions, it’s something more.
Q: Do you see the glass half full or half empty? Why?
A: Half Empty. Take it and fill it up to the rim. A half filled glass might leave you thirsty.
