What’s on my mind today

My question on this Sabbath day: Are some people so evil that it would take only God’s intervention to stop them? I’m just going to leave that question right here because right now it baffles me. Would it? Blessed Sunday to everyone. Smile and be nice even if it kills you, we’re told. That’s whatContinue

Passive Aggressive Person

Why do passive aggressive persons get away with things? My answer, because that would make me look like the bad guy. Have had so many neighbours throughout the years who have one way or another contributed to me moving house every now and then. But the worst one right now is the one where IContinue

Stay Visible To Yourself..

Sometimes I wonder if I am invisible. Sometimes I wonder if I am in this world Sometimes I wonder if I am alive Do you have that feeling that sometimes you’re not seen nor heard? Like you’re speaking to someone through glass?. Like you’re sluggishly swimming through water to get to be seen? And youContinue

Beware Hackers And Scammers!

So livid today when I couldn’t log into my Twitter account. Wasted the best part of the day trying, then failing, time and time again. By the time the afternoon came calling, I had lost the niceness I have been trying to cultivate. They got all the nice curse words I could think of withoutContinue

Wherever, Whenever, However

As my search within myself continues, I feel have learned some. About me and everything that surrounds me, spiritual as well as physical, even emotional and mental as well. Some things I am sure of, and others not so. Still learning.  But one thing I have learned above all is that God can be worshippedContinue

Coconut tree pictures, etc

Living on an island nation, we do have a lot of coconut trees. I think they’re pretty, so I tried taking some pics with my new phone. They turned out grainy, a bit blurred, but they looked too pretty to trash. Here goes. Horse grazing, framed by coconut branches. Coconut tree, framed by roof ofContinue

Families are like minefields

Working on family issues is like negotiating through a minefield. Some may agree and some may very vocally disagree, so I’m going to treat this like a profesional business proposal. We may need to agree to disagree, but the work must move forward. In families, just like business it can be pretty difficult to pleaseContinue

Every prayer thou hast answered  Every need thou hast anticipated  What more can I say?

Fuzzy days

Should a writer stay unbiased?

Should one be unbiased if writing a story from two opposing perspectives, i.e. the antagonist or protagonist POV? I know one should remain neutral in this circumstance, but when one is passionate about the story line, one tends to forget and become biased; then falls mostly on the protagonist pov, forgetting the antagonist is supposedlyContinue

How Shall I Count The Leaks

How shall I count the leaks? By squares, roundness, rectangles, or triangles They crowd my vision, not impeding glimpses of the stars.

Happy New Year

Another year is almost gone. A new one begins tomorrow. I would like to wish everyone an awesome new year, individually. 2021 has been a crazy one for me, ending with an agonizing Christmas, holed up in bed with sciatica.

Seasons Greetings

Humankind has been through a lot these past two years, 2021 being the worst. So many losses in families, communities, countries. Despair, anger, hatred abounded. The world stands in chaos. But one thing that holds us together is faith in a higher being. A being we believe will save us from eternal damnation. This beingContinue

A view I couldn’t resist

Driving down the coast yesterday, I couldn’t resist taking a snap of this tranquil scene through the trees.

All The World’s A Stage

I quote William Shakespeare’s words in ‘As We like it’, where he says, ‘all the world’s a stage. We are actors to be moved about on this stage called Life. Every scene has to be acted out. There has to be a beginning, a middle, and an end. At the moment, craziness abounds. Mockery abounds.Continue

My Venting Thoughts

Why only blame the unvaccinated? When the vaxxed are getting covid too. Why dehumanize, and demonize? When we are all children of a heavenly father. Everyone has their own agenda it seems. Whether it be political or financial gain. The world is going mad. Some say up, when it is really down. Some call itContinue

This Chaos Will Pass

Adversity Only Makes You Stronger

The Numbers Keep Rising

The numbers of covid patients in Fiji keep rising. There have been six alleged deaths from this virus. We are still in lockdown. When will this madness end?

Growing Older While Standing Still

Time flies past While you’re standing still. You wake in the morning, Half of the day is gone. You run to catch up But it still slips by You go to bed at night Leaving work undone . You ask, puzzled Where did the day go?, Am I getting older While standing still? Nothing everContinue

It’s Never Too Late

What’s The Point

Waking up every day to lockdowns, masks, being pushed to be vaccinated, you think what’s the point? Why do we have to get up and go through this daily? Where is my freedom of choice? Or my freedom of speech? Who knows me better than me? Why is someone else making decisions for me? TheseContinue

This Sun Will Shine

With clarity I saw What I could not admit Digging deep I delve Into the depths of my soul Imperfectly human, broken I couldn’t be fixed But slowly I wake, I rise Clinging on for dear life The pit is not an abyss Nor a difficult ascent Looking up, not down I bid my adieuContinue

I Will Keep On Juggling

Sometimes when you’re juggling too many balls at once, you will drop one, or two, if you’re not adept at it. At the moment I feel like one of those amateur jugglers. I fear I have too many balls up in the air. I keep wondering if I will catch the next one coming down.Continue

Feeling Validated

After all these years of writing I feel validated. Someone has read my work and wants to sign me up to a 5 year book deal. It has been a culmination of thoughts, writing and praying for validation. That someone will read my stories. That they will think my manuscript is worth paying for. IContinue

Here Comes The Flu Again

Here it is once again. Striking me once again. It strikes, leaves you broken, fatigued. You get back up on your feet, immunity back intact. Knowing you can beat it the next time it shows its ugly little face again. But then it mutates, adds a new strain, then comes back, stronger than the lastContinue

The Internet Failed Me.

Had our family meeting yesterday. It was so-so. Got some inkling of what to expect in the future, who was interested in moving forward, and what progress we were liable to make, moving forward. Now the internet was mostly to blame , if not the main culprit. It foiled our plans, for a worldwide familyContinue

The Journey

Had an epiphany while sitting here on a bus. Traveling to a destination that I know. The destination being to an optometrist to get my eyes checked again for new glasses.

The Sad Part

It makes me sad to see people closing their eyes to what’s happening on a daily basis. They’d rather close their eyes to the truth, to the rampaging evil that is happening around them, then bring undue attention to themselves. When they’re told babies are being murdered, they go ‘where?’. Or pretend they haven’t heard,Continue

Enough!

Enough of the squabbling, the fighting, the backbiting, the gossiping, the hating, the killing. Haven’t we had enough?

What do we get out of it at the end ofContinue

Wanted to make my last post for the year 2020. I guess it was just to make a statement. Makes me feel good to at least post something before the year ends. Rambling it will be but who cares? Another year comes to an end. Another one takes it’s place. We grow older as weContinue

Man’s Plan Not God’s Plan

Last night Cat 5 TC Yasa hit the Fiji Isles, making landfall on Vanualevu, causing destruction and death.

Are We Running Out Of Time?

Venturing into the last month of the year I have wondered if I have been acting in a movie. Or watching one. Wondering, are we running out of time?. Time doesn’t seem to matter to our leaders. They all act like they have all the time in the world. They shut down our borders, shutContinue

Do Not Condone, Then Reward Bad Behaviour

I step into this moment. All paths have led me to this moment. Sometimes I have felt lost, abandoned, hurt beyond measure. Sometimes truth hurts while lies get distorted.

Each day each one of us is fighting a battle. A battle in our minds. A battle that is so real that it blinds us to everything else.  It  consumes our thoughts  so much that it takes us away from the important  things we need to prioritize in our lives, that of God, love,  ourContinue

THE ROAD TO HELL IS PAVED WITH GOOD INTENTIONS

The road to hell is paved with good intentions. Those words are true today. The good intentions that are good for some, may not be good for all. What some do-gooders want for you is not what you want for yourself. Trying to force it onto you leaves the both of you hating each other. Continue
