A Year Closer: Numbering our Days
A year closer to maturity in spirit and body A year closer to reaping fruit of investments A year closer to illness free life A year closer to realizing our dreams A year closer to see our children grow up A year closer to see the joy of aging A year closer to retirement A
The Rugged Road
Busy in my own thoughts I am The road’s lonely, my ride’s bumpy The rugged road’s hard to tread Jammed here in this road I chose Silence befall, no voice I hear Drive me out of my lonely den My chains unshackled In His blood I am free Free to follow Him faithfully Boundless love
Going Home: Brief Concept of Perfect Christmas
In the middle of December, two years ago, I had undergone brain surgery. Just ten days left before the year’s Christmas dawned. I was recovering, in the Intensive Care Unit, with few pains between the doses of painkiller. Somehow, I want to go home before Christmas. And I know it could simply be a far
The Loneliness of Life
During my formative years, I had spent considerable amount of time herding cattle, sometimes sheep, in the slopes of the hills. Most of the time we were alone, except for our bovine friends, which we had closely watch. In the nearby shade of trees, we sat down, waiting for the animals to be fed. It
A Lonely Heart
The other day, I received a call from my ex-colleague. It was nothing more than a normal talk. I was updated of work pressure from my previous workplace. I somehow missed them.

Young Parents at Christmas Time
We have started assembling the decoration items from last Christmas. Our young children are more than ready to help.

My Son’s Bedtime Prayer: Still Small Voice
Yesterday I drove my son to school. We were jumping topics to another; cracked up some jokes, providing best possible answers to number of random questions, and reviewing few bygone years. We seem to enjoy every bit of it but we failed to acknowledge at that very moment. We met the teacher at his school,
Beneath the Willow Tree
There were willow trees in the corner of our mustard field. It is nearby the bank of a river. Beneath the willow I’d sat down, escaping from my routine life. The cold sand waiting for the warm sun rays, until they featured in the stipulated alignment of the earth and sun. Serene beauty, with reflections
Born With A Purpose
Irrespective of what we do, if we serve our purpose in life, we’d be a blessed person in the end. Our life, which is the means, would justify the(our) end. Longevity is a blessing but not everyone could have it. Still, a lifetime whether long or short doesn’t determine our purpose; it depends on how
Getting Ready
Before the time comes I wanted to get ready, if that’s possible at all. But it happens most of the time before I could get ready. I don’t want to get embarrassed, amongst people, by these seizure attacks. When I have this aura, which warns me of the possible attack, I am very happy. Yet
