Coming from complete lockdown to gradually seeing things reopen, understandably many are feeling quite overwhelmed with all the uncertainty lying ahead them. These last few months have been taxing on all of us; forcing us to take up roles we never thought would become our personal responsibility (e.g. teaching from home), while still trying to […]
Read moreAge is just a number… it doesn’t mean a thing
People arguing will always catch your attention; especially work colleagues that argue in front of others (and dare I say in front of clients). Some may find this entertaining; yet it leaves me wondering where respect really comes into play. Particularly when the two who are fighting are from different generations, who come from completely different […]
Read moreHearing the call for Endurance
With so many different sounds all around us at this moment, fear; worry; doubt and concerns about the days ahead, it’s going to become important for us to listen to one call. That call is the call for endurance. The need to learn how to endure in order to move forward has rarely before been […]
Read moreA life of Chance or Intent
Things rarely happen by chance. In 1929, Sir Alexander Fleming (a bacteriologist) cleaned up his laboratory and went on vacation.

Read moreIn between the frames

Read moreSELF is King
This is always a topic worth revisiting… It goes without saying – we live in a culture where self is the king of everything today. From the selfies we take to the simple D.I.Y’s we choose in our everyday lives, it seems that everything we do has a way of promoting self. We often find ourselves […]
Read moreQuiet… your test is in progress
Tests generally make people nervous…especially if the results end up keeping you back while those around you (who pass) move on. And yet, as nerve wrecking as it is, it gives you an accurate idea regarding your understanding for the subject at hand. Do we comprehend the subject or do we need to go back and […]
Read moreFrom ‘Here’ to ‘There’
Moving from ‘Here’ to ‘There’. There shouldn’t be anything complicated about doing it; however, when looking at so many of our lives this seems to be a really difficult thing for us to do. For many of us, we wish to stay in the ‘Here’because it’s what we are familiar with and what we know […]
Read moreThe gift many really want for Christmas…
This will mark the last blog I will post for 2019… It’s a few days before Christmas and New Years Eve is just around the corner again. I am sure that looking back at this year many of us wonder how we managed to make it here again…but here we are; getting ready to celebrate […]
