You are the world

Michael Jackson (1958 -2009)
There will never be another. I remember my first cassette tape. That incredible “Dangerous” album. Sure I indulged in Bonjovi, Richard Marx, Mariah and Whitney for a bit. But nothing could ever compare with the energy I felt as a 10 year old at the time, moving to the syncopated grooves of [...]

Trapped

The problem I have is this:
If I don’t give my word that I will do it, you will be unhappy and think I’m a jerk.

Game is over. Farewell My Love.

There was a great sense of excitement when I embraced you about three years ago. I didn’t quite know what to expect. Deep down, I always had a hunch that our relationship wouldn’t work out in the long run. But there were concerned people who told me to give you a chance. That I would [...]

Tools for Scary Ventures

The experience in commuting in life depends on your posture and your vision. It matters how you are positioned to face the undulating forces and events that rushes straight into your path, sometimes smashing you in the face. Threatening to slow your progress to the promised land. Or halting it completely by putting you out [...]
