Are you bored? If you are, I can’t help you. I already warned you. Now, where was I? See that’s the worst thing about a continuation. I hate it when I have to pick up from where I left. It messes the story and I have to rake my small brain. Read more »

I was and am an innocent man. Would you believe me if I said I haven’t hurt an ant in my life? I don’t care what you believe. I will still tell you my story. Want to know why I don’t care?

Do we think of what would happen to the frog in his quest to see the big sea? What if there was a huge desert sprawling in Read more »

I remember a moment from long ago. My habit of writing diary often kept me awake. Those days I didn’t have a laptop (it was better, I knew my spellings well) and I would scribble my feelings every other night.

But last week, when she said she was coming to see my baby, she gave me a heaven’s surprise. God, I could not believe she was coming to my house.  Technically, I would be the first person on earth to know her personally. Oh boy, that sure made me proud! Read more »
