Have you ever wondered what it means to be ‘getting there’? That mysterious place in time? Last night a few of us from high school got together to catch up on some birthdays we missed – a quarterly celebration. I soon realized in few years we are all going to be sixty! That was aContinue reading “Getting There”

Handle With Care
We are here – the end of another month! Time sure flies when you are having fun. Some may be wondering where the time went. Tasks unfinished , others not started – expectations not met. What we thought would have been, didn’t pan out. Some personal goals accomplished , some not. We come face toContinue reading “Handle With Care”
For Once in My Life
As a teenager in college, a friend of mine took me on a motorcycle ride for about 40 minutes along a very scenic route. It was on the then common Kawasaki. Donned in my helmet and the likes, I looked really good. It was exhilarating! That was a once in a lifetime ride and itContinue reading “For Once in My Life”
Chosen Road
Sometimes a songwriter pens words that you would want to say yourself. These lyrics from ‘Desert Road’ by Casting Crown speaks to me in real ways. I do feel this way at times. This is not the path I would have chosen – on this desert road. I don’t wanna write this songI don’t wantContinue reading “Chosen Road”
Simple Lesson
A friend of mine not so far from me sent me this picture of a scene on one of her walks. For a while I had this picture but somehow never looked close enough to see the details. Right there in midst of a watery backdrop are a few birds. They seem quite at peaceContinue reading “Simple Lesson”
The Help I Need
This morning [Saturday] I had a 4-hour RTV [real time virtual] class. This means I was fully engaged with my students for 4 hours. Being all in mentally, emotionally and physically can be draining to say the least. At the end of the class, I was spent. Though I loved every minute of it, IContinue reading “The Help I Need”
Loving Me
To the One who always stayed – who loved me before I was. You give me reason to breathe today. You’ve been faithful through the ages. Grant me grace to reciprocate. I will be your God throughout your lifetime— until your hair is white with age. I made you, and I will care for you.Continue reading “Loving Me”
This Kind of Love
My previous post focused on the love amongst siblings, cousins, aunts, uncles and the likes. There is another kind of love that can hardly be explained. This is the love between a parent and child [ we’ll add the grandmas, grandpas and grandbabies in the mix]. This valentine’s day if you have a parent whoContinue reading “This Kind of Love”
All Kinds of Love
‘How sweet it is to be loved by you’. This sentiment will be shared by many in a few days. This is the season when many plan to celebrate the loves in their lives. It is not uncommon for some to get into a funk for a number of reasons. Often, we reminisce about lostContinue reading “All Kinds of Love”
My Why
Recently one of my students came by my desk to share his current situation. His wife is hospitalized with a very serious condition, and he has a daughter on the autism spectrum who started having seizures. I could sense the weight on his shoulders and the pain in his heart. I asked him if thisContinue reading “My Why”
