A day is coming
I close my eyes, and there you are. You’re gentle heart, you’re loving gestures. If you knew my past, you would comprehend my ways. I close my eyes, and your arms then wrap around me. It is with you I feel the safest. There is no judgement. No fear. A feeling, I have never felt […]

What people don’t know about depression
Depression is often taboo in most cultures. It is neither talked about, addressed or properly diagnosed. People can go years without treatment and suffer alone. Yet, there’s one thing society doesn’t know about depression regardless of where you live or what culture you grow up in. People with depression know how to live sacrificially, in […]

Cabin in the woods
You were right my darling Cessna. As I gazed at all these marvelous sites, I was in awe of all my eyes could see. I tried to capture every moment in pictures, and soon realized I could not capture all God’s creation through my digital screen. The mountains, the sunrise and sunset, the streets and […]

Yet, you do not know
You know my name, you have called it before. Do you know what I have done, or have you heard from others? Yet, you do not know my story. I wish I was not defined by the things I regret I have done. Yet, you do not know how I ended up there. You see […]

My forever hero
My aunt is definitely my forever hero. During the days I spent in the hospital as a kid, she was the one that sat with me there, telling me stories of the Bible. These stories seemed so fictitious, but they filled me hope even that age. I think I experienced different things at the age […]

Μου λείπεις.
My heart is yearning for you. “Μου λείπεις” You are missing from me, my beloved, You are missing from me. In Greek you don’t say, “I miss you”. It is “Μου λείπεις”, which means ‘you are missing from me’. That completely changes the meaning and content of the words “I miss you”. See we can […]

The one with whom I am well pleased
I saw my cousin Swetha this past weekend; I think after over 10 years. I honestly can’t remember when I saw her last but, I feel like I was still a “kid” back then, back in my teenage years. That sounds so weird to say! Swetha is probably the only cousin that inherited those beautiful […]

First dates with brown girls
He invited her to his condo in the city. “I’ll make you biryani for dinner”, he said. And with those words, she agreed. No girl in her right mind would ever say no to that. She arrived, definitely few minutes fashionable late. It was their first date. She was starving; honestly she dreamt of biryani […]

What’s Next?
First of all, I want to say thank you to everyone who has been reading my blogs and commenting. It’s been so great to hear your thoughts and opinions. Anyway, the Jiu-Jitsu Warrior suggested I start Vlogging. I’m not too sure my awkward ways and speaking skills can coexist…do I want to put my readers […]
