The Struggle Of Emotions
This month’s Lupron shot has hit me hard this week while I have been sick. I have been struggling a lot with my emotions and cannot control them.

This is literally a two weeks after having norovirus and chemo was pushed back. Chemo probably will be pushed back again. Joy. And yes, this has been one of the reasons why I cried this week too.

Think about the silence of dawn in the woods where the light of day pierces the top of the trees each moment like God holding its breath a split second longer; unmistakably old silence vibrating with memories of a forming world. Or, consider the silence of the city at sleep, thick with human noise, its asphalt heating up from the day's activity, not yet dissipated, a whole inhabited unconscious simmering like neurons firing in synchronization. Or, think about the silence before storm, a stretch, poised like a bow-and-arrow, the sound of silence true, always an inevitability; and, then there is the silence after-storm the world emerged as if it was hollowed out from a gutting, shaken pure everything is deemed newborn

Life, Death and Onions. Top Story - March 2025.
The familiar blend of Victorian and modern architecture shifts my thoughts between past and present. Craning up at the glass tower where my wife lies in pain and uncertainty, I wonder what might come next in this continuing period drama. As I enter, the warm disinfectant air hits my nostrils and I drift back twenty years. My very first day as a hospital Porter …

Why Doing More Is Making Us Less Successful?
Remember the good old days when productivity just meant finishing your homework before dinner? Now, it’s all about multitasking, time-blocking, and squeezing 25 hours out of a 24 hour day. The most surprising thing is that in our quest to do more, we often end up feeling like we have achieved very less.

Stranger in the Moonlight
Chapter 1: The Encounter The small coastal town of Seabreeze had always been serene, a place where time seemed to stand still. The calming sounds of the waves crashing on the shore and the soft rustle of palm trees swayed by the gentle breeze created an atmosphere that was perfect for reflection and romance. It was here that Mark Thompson, a handsome yet troubled man in his thirties, found himself after a string of failed relationships and personal hardships that had left scars on his heart.
