This weekend more than 30 of us from our high school graduating class got together for a 3-day ‘Lyming’ [ A Caribbean island slang for hanging out or chilling with friends. Can also refer to middle-aged people having a good time trying to recapture their youth😂.] And yes, we are officially middle-aged! No one wasContinue reading “And So We Laughed”

Broken Hearts
A very poignant question was asked by Ms. Whitney: ‘Where Do Broken Hearts Go? Can they find their way home?’ Heart break isn’t just a thing of the 21st century, it has been around since the dawn of time. The first mother, Eve, experienced unimaginable heart break when one of her sons killed the other.Continue reading “Broken Hearts”
Her Name Was Summer
This is a ‘Feel-good Friday’ post. I’m almost sure my son will not read this- so here goes😊! I have always been intrigued with the innocence of childhood. The simple things that can bring a smile to child’s face. As I reflect on my childhood, I marvel at the how much fun we had doingContinue reading “Her Name Was Summer”
Behind The Smiles
I asked my friend’s permission to share this picture of her, her mom, daughter and grand-daughter. Four generations of beautiful women with delightful smiles. Behind the smiles is a wealth of experience, stories of grace, hope, love, redemption and restoration. Recently, I spoke with the youngest lady in the group on the phone. I askedContinue reading “Behind The Smiles”
He Writes
This is my totally self-absorbed, ‘feel-good’ Friday post.😘😊Nothing deep. Just skimming through some items from ‘my younger me ‘ days. I found some pieces of writing sent to me from an old love. We must have been 19 or 20 years old. Actually for a young chap – he could write. What do you think?Continue reading “He Writes”
The Missing Pieces
This is Father’s Day weekend. I thought long and hard about writing this post. Partly because I didn’t want to paint anyone in a bad light. After all for many, this is a celebratory weekend. The truth is most of my family don’t read what I write anyway- so here goes😎! First, let me applaudContinue reading “The Missing Pieces”
Prepare Me
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”
I’m Sure I didn’t
The older I get the more time seems to fly. It truly waits for no one. Moments come and go so quickly. One has to be intentional about seizing the moments. This picture was taken on the day I graduated from high school a few decades ago. These are two of my gal pals thatContinue reading “I’m Sure I didn’t”
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”
