    Mantle of Protection 26102019

    A couple of weeks back, you’d probably notice this FB status… A few extended their concerns asking what happened and if we’re okay. Yes we are. Praise God! I know, either you don’t care or it’s not your concern, but I opt to share this story to my readers and at the same time use this opportunity to release emotional and mental chaos around my head. Right after what happened, I can hear the loud screeching sound of our bus. Right after what happened, I felt an abnormal pain at the back of my head down to my shoulders… I guess these were traumas. So, here’s what happened. We left…

    Every day, you follow the same routine. You get up. A quick shower followed by a warm brew and a bowl of cereal, and you’re ready to leave the house. The commute to work is the worst part of the day, whether you’re driving or using public transport. Thousands of other people like you are heading to the office. They are packed in the train like unwilling sardines, victims of the rush hours. Every day brings the same stress and crowd. Until one day, you wake up feeling a little more tired than usual. The motivation has gone from your body. You wonder if taking a day off will bring…

    India’s Onam Festival

    Hey there Creatives! A new day and a new culture to learn!  This must have been my first inter-culture immersion with the Indian community… but the company’s Onam celebration falls on my comp-off schedule. Although I won’t be there to join the festivities, I’d like to share a little history about this festival. I haven’t attempted to search it on Google, instead I’m sharing it straight from what I’ve heard – a raw storytelling from my co-worker Ria. :) So basically the story comes from this mythical king – King Mahabali who happens to be very popular and thus the people honors him like God. Somehow this situation has reached…
