God’s grace
Good day folks. Yesterday was a great day in America. As I watched the inauguration of President Biden and Vice-President Harris, I was so encouraged to see that love and unity prevailed over hatred and fear.

Too many mouths in the soup
Good day everyone. Hope your day is going well. As I sat down and rested, I pondered on the fragility of life.

I toldContinue reading “Too many mouths in the soup”

Why don’t you love me?
Imagine this. You say that you love that boy, girl, man or woman, but your actions say otherwise. You don’t talk to them unless you need their help.
