Recently I had chat with a friend of mine who has been married for over thirty years. She mentioned how beautiful marriage was with all it’s challenges. It also requires hard work and people who are committed to the idea of working on themselves. This is part of the recipe for a lasting and fulfillingContinue reading “Prepare Me”

Did I ?
I took this picture a few years ago as I sat in a classroom waiting for students to arrive. If I remember well, it was a group I was meeting for the first time. Yesterday, I stared at the picture and wondered about those students who graced the walls of this room. Those who satContinue reading “Did I ?”
Circle of Love
This may be your story – one of reconciliation and restoration. Isn’t this a thing of beauty? Love hopes all things – love never ends. Do you think you could try again? Forgive one more time. Open your arms to that ‘prodigal’. Extend grace one more time. Do you think you could? Just one moreContinue reading “Circle of Love”
Back Then
Over 38 years ago, I was busy studying [ some of us were 😀] and getting ready to graduate high school. Not long ago, I looked back at an old diary. For the month of May and early June of that year, every day my entry included ..’studied and slept’. Wasn’t life simpler back then?😊Continue reading “Back Then”
Past Loves
Many of us got married to our high school and college ‘heart beats’. I didn’t. Did you? Recently I read some entries in an old diary. Many captured some of the goings on leading up to high school graduation. Many of you, your children and loved ones are now gearing up for the graduation season.Continue reading “Past Loves”
For That Moment
The lyrics of a popular ’80s song ran across my mind recently- ‘ I’ve been staring at your photograph, wondering where you’re at today’🎶. Have you ever thought about the people whose lives intertwined with yours over the years? If only for a season. Where are they? Recently I was skimming through an old diaryContinue reading “For That Moment”
I Met a Girl
The older I get the more I come to appreciate the people that I have crossed path with. They all came for a reason, some for just a season. I attended college 3 different times. Once I met a girl. Actually, I met many girls [and guys] – some shown below. That girl has stayedContinue reading “I Met a Girl”
My Thoughts
The mind is an amazing store house of treasures. Ever so often some surface that brings a smile to our face. I don’t take for granted that my mind is ‘sound’. Guarding my mind is an intentional act for me daily. Some things are not allowed to take residence there. I choose to leave ‘space’Continue reading “My Thoughts”
The Love That Won’t let Go
Love is one of those mysteries of life. It drives us to do things that boggles the mind some times. It causes mothers to become ferocious warriors, fathers to rise up like giants, men to climb mountains and women to swim rivers. We often act seemingly foolish and do the impossible because of love. WithContinue reading “The Love That Won’t let Go”
Legacy- Then and Now
I had to do this post sometime. The time is now. Of course, February is not the only time we celebrate love and history – but there’s no better time than the present. This story of love and legacy began way before I was born. It began in the 1950s, but was cemented in January,Continue reading “Legacy- Then and Now”
