Random thoughts that go nowhere
If ever you had an opportunity to visit Singapore you know that it is a melting pot of many nations. Last week, I spent the day out just capturing a few of the faces that make up Singapore. Behind the smiles, grins and smirks a story can be told. Find for yourself the thoughts that are … Continue reading Faces of Singapore
Pause; My Fear overwhelms me Hesitate; My Sweat embarrasses me Silence; My Breath deceives me Looking for Direction Looking for Acceptance Looking for Peace 1, 2, 3 - Is this the way, Is this the direction, Is this sanctuary I’m homesick for Eden This is the conflict that resides in my thoughts This is the nightmare … Continue reading Quiet Desperation
Every day it rains. Every day gray clouds linger. Every day I see, hear and smell what I saw, heard and smelled the day before. My head is a block with hair that sticks out like twigs. No one will look me in the eyes. My mouth is like a slit that you would see … Continue reading Each Day – Taipei, Shanghai and Bagkok
Our path will never be the same; we have encounters and conversations that change us, that shape us that form us. Sometimes in the smallest of ways but others that completely divert our journey through life. Many times, we ignore what is right before us. “I have lain in prison for nearly two years.

What thoughts conjure in your head when you think of eastern Europe? I have to admit that "Gypsy" is a word that crept into my thoughts. Smiling, happy, musical people who dance with joy.

But I wasn't sure about how that "certain way" was supposed … Continue reading Living in a Communist Country
When we arrived, we didn't know what to expect; resort, old towne, ruins? We had never been. It was a short drive (distance) but a longer drive (time) to get where we needed. Anticipation; what would we find. It was the original capital city when settled by the Spanish. It was also on the Caribbean … Continue reading Ponce – A tale of two cities
Christmas holiday in Puerto Rico, what an amazing trip! Farms animals (mostly bulls) and more lined the streets. It was loud and proud as the animals, tractors and lawn mowers passed through the houses and the music echoed from the hills to the ocean. What a festival. I recommend adding Rincon to your list … Continue reading Running of the Bulls – Rincon, PR
There are times, I see what I hear and hear what I see; and then there is the indescribable. I’m nowhere to be found but I’m right before your eyes. I sense that something is transpiring but I feel nothing. You may think it’s emptiness but you are wrong! I stare and all I see is … Continue reading El Cielo
As you may have seen in my most recent post, I spent an evening at the Huntington Beach pier in California. This is a continuation of that evening. Sometimes an experience that leaves an impression has a lot to do with being in the right place, at the right time and recognizing it. I enjoy pondering life; … Continue reading Tapestry
