If you don’t start AND finish it, your best idea will be your biggest regret. You may hide, hold and protect yours. Procrastinate or neglect yours. But in time someone else will present theirs, And they will receive what would’ve been yours. Many people treat ideas as fragile gems self protected inside their heads. We […]

Casualties of Love
Pulsating throbs are ever present reminding me of the costs. And yet all I can think about is when can we dance again. Both realities are present and yet one completely overwhelms. I hurt and I love. And love is all that matters. I wince but still drift into dreamy imaginations; Envisioning a place of […]
When Grace is No Longer Grace
My prayer life did it. My giving tithing earned it. I sowed a seed, Abstained bad deeds. And now, I have my payment. (Ref: Rom. 11:6)
Why Isn’t a Happy Home Enough?
The other day I asked myself the question, why isn’t a happy home enough? Healthy children who love you, a spouse that respects and trust you — why can’t that be enough? The scenario is very familiar: the successful person who gets his dreams but loses his soul or forfeits his most important relationships. They […]

I once sat down with an executive coach describing my business and personal road blocks. By the end of the meeting the guy tells me he could not or would not work with me. Earlier in the conversation he made other statements like, ‘you have an rebuttal for everything I tell you.’ and ‘you need […]
Quoting Wikipedia, below is a passage from The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. I first heard the story in amazement when reading the book The Reason for God, by Tim Keller. First, before you read the quote, here a basic backstory. Dr. Jekyll makes a potion to separate his bad side from […]
Pulling on the strings of distant friends
People are not as easily annoyed as you might think. And people whom we call “friends” in name, but rarely spend time with — I believe would love to hear from us more; even if it were just for a favor. The crazy thing to me is, there seems to be a natural tendency to […]
The Commit App
Peep: http://thinklegend.com/commit/ I’ve been using it for the past few weeks and so far, I really like it. I try hard not to be too worried about productivity and accomplishment and ignore actually doing what really matters… This app is so drop dead simple- you can’t be waste time learning how to use it. All you […]
