Growing Up with My Mother
My mother came home from the field. She looks tired; scaling the contours of hills and valleys beautifully crafted by the Creator. We eagerly waited for her to arrive home. In the shady evening, we’re hoping mother would bring us something to eat. As I can fairly recalled, her shabby dress was filled with sweat.
Broken Brain
“Dear God, my Papa’s brain is broken. He is experiencing too much pain. Please heal my dear daddy,” uttered my son in his bedtime prayer, as we were about to settle down in the bed. The next day, his subdued voice filled with emotions as he prayed, rang in my ear as I stayed home.
Wrestle Living
Wrestling, as a game or sports, did not interests me much. For the sake of knowing the sport and in admiration of their hard work, I’d watched the game. It’s a tiresome sporting adventure but when their hard work really paid off, it can change their fortune. By definition, to wrestle is to force someone
Messy Living
It is easier creating a mess than untangling any kind of mess. In our daily living, we messed with people either in a good or bad way. All kinds of messing are not bad; it depends on how we messed with and how often do we clean up our mess. Believe it or not, the
Unconsumed: Burning Living
The burning sensation, on the side of my head and face, was hard to deal with. Putting ice on the affected area does not help, as it does not burned outwardly. It was this well-designed aura that I had, due to my neurological disorder, which serves as a necessary warning in the wake of performing
Touching the Edge of His Cloak
Few days, two days actually, before she passed onto eternity, I met her. In the evening hours of that day, I walked till the edge of the fumigated hallway, which leads to the hospital room where she’s laid. Of late, she’s been in and out of the hospital, sometimes losing consciousness, as her illness progressed.
As I Walk With Him
Another weekend arrived; we’re raring to go home. The evening bus service, the only mode of transport available at that time, left without us. We decided to walk the thirteen kilometers stretch trekking the coiling roads through the small hills and valleys. We were here, in the nearest town from our village, to get proper
Treasuring While Toiling
Today, all my dear ones were out from home, performing and pursuing their duties and obligations, as usual. Mommy’s working and our children going to school. And Daddy strong was staying at home. I deserved a ‘look back’, I mumbled, as I dropped my youngest to school, but she didn’t. It made me saw her
Young Faith Defeating The Giant
It is my prerogative spending time with my children. Children of today hardly stay calm; they’re active physically and mentally. And there’s more to it, they possessed pure faith in God as they’re not intoxicated as yet. There are times I’ve been riding on the faith of my children. When they’re hurting I can simply
Wreathing in Pain
As if sharp-edged weaponries are piercing my head, it’s painful. And I am wreathing in pain. It’s not just a onetime pain; and it’s been here with me for some years, in a row, now. My body was about to droop-in slyly, yet I tried enduring the pain. But today I tried to beat the
