Have you listened to an orchestra that literally moved you to tears?

It is whenContinue reading “Sentiments …”

People often say, “it is the journey that is important.” How do you know if the road to your journey is where you should be?

The pictures of devastated buildings, elderly who are fleeing, and faces of innocent children keep appearing in my mind. The news of war in Ukraine and chaos in other countries reflecting the images of suffering, poverty, andContinue reading “Heartbreak”

Lent is the season where we reexamine our lives in accordance with the life and teachings of Jesus Christ. Whether you are a devout Christian or just beginning to know Christ, we are taught that Christ is “the way, the truth, and the life” to the Kingdom of God (John 14:6-7).
