Are we losing our humanity- Social media post interpretation caution: A timeline that always elicits excitement does not mean the account holder is PRETENDING ! I see people make blanket statements about how people who appear to be happy are not really happy!! I think that’s just nonsensical. You just can’t know anyone’s intent justContinue reading “Still on the topic of social media: Keeping it real”

A PLEA: ON THE ISSUE OF SOCIAL MEDIA TRENDS AND MENTAL HEALTH
Why do we deny people acts of kindness without getting to know them PERSONALLY? If we knew what others thought about us, based on our ACTIONS which THEY interpreted to be wrong, and if we considered them to be ‘TRUTH’, we probably wouldn’t like ourselves! In essence; before we slander, before we insult or wishContinue reading “A PLEA: ON THE ISSUE OF SOCIAL MEDIA TRENDS AND MENTAL HEALTH”
The age of apathy; the middle ground between love and hate.
I imagine being given two oranges!; one with so much juice and seeds, and the other, however, simply being like the first without seeds! I like to picture love as an act that proceeds to bear more good fruit! And while it’s been thought that hate is the opposite of love, for me it seems,Continue reading “The age of apathy; the middle ground between love and hate.”
A tsp of forgiveness, a TBS of grace and a liter of love
I was recently caught up in a quagmire, where I struggled to process an emotion! From my previous blogs, you will know that I am big on the virtues forgiveness and love. I’d like to think that grace is the link between forgiveness and love. To show unmerited favor (grace), one would need to possessContinue reading “A tsp of forgiveness, a TBS of grace and a liter of love”
He was customized for the Annan’s’!
Clearly, the world’s confusion about standards makes me pause with the statement ‘I have the best…’. I’d like to think that for the person I’ve become and I’m continuing to grow into, God gave me exactly what I needed and still need! Daddy! His intellect is my favorite quality of his. I haven’t met aContinue reading “He was customized for the Annan’s’!”
The Venusian INTJ
Dr John Gray, in his book ‘Men are from Mars, women are from Venus’, must have totally missed a sub-cohort of the Venusian species or just maybe, not all women are from Venus. There is also the possibility that the INTJs might have been exiled from Venus- that would certainly be plausible. I’ve been tryingContinue reading “The Venusian INTJ”
Appeal for Truth-Seekers
It’s not you or me. It’s us It’s not your angle or my angle. It’s our angle I’ve had the pleasure of working in multiple ‘teams’ and I’ve often been intentional about knowing people for myself; for me, this completely changes my perspective! I have grown to learn that every person is ‘Loveable’ and beforeContinue reading “Appeal for Truth-Seekers”
The 70*7 Forgiveness rule
Prior to writing this blog, I reached out to a Theologian friend of mine to find out why Peter, in Matthew 18: 21-35, suggested that forgiving 7 times was a fair standard. This is what he said; I think there was a Rabbinic debate about it and it was considered that forgiving your neighbor 3Continue reading “The 70*7 Forgiveness rule”
Freedom From the Ruins(a poem)
They said to throw the hurt out of the window. Which part of it goes though? And which part remains? For I may have invested myself a little too much to be feeling this excruciating pinch; or so it felt, at first. Once the ice melts into the water, does the chill it gives decipherContinue reading “Freedom From the Ruins(a poem)”
I’d still choose you, Love (A poem)

Because with your fresh aroma, I need no exertion With you, I just need to beContinue reading “I’d still choose you, Love (A poem)”
