An American Convenience
In America, and many other parts of the world, there are many things that we use every single day that people – historically – lived their lives without. Forget about TV’s, phones, computers, cars, and the like; I am talking about things that are basic to living; specifically, I am talking about plumbing. My familyContinue reading “An American Convenience”
Oh Taste and See!
I absolutely love food. I am not a small person, so it shows readily. I have been introduced to some authentic Indian food, and it is rapidly becoming my favorite type; however there is something that is better than any Indian food I have ever tasted.

Sacrifices Is An Exchange
I do not really look at the things that I “sacrifice” as giving up something, I look at it as exchanging it for something better; a trade up rather than a trade off due to one being of more value instead of equal. I go to work to provide for my family, I sacrifice someContinue reading “Sacrifices Is An Exchange”

Racing… for what?
Sometimes, life is almost like running a race. Waking up, rushing around, going to the things that have to be done that day. But what are we trying to achieve ultimately? What are we racing for? what is the point of the monotony? More precisely, what is the end goal of life? There is aContinue reading “Racing… for what?”
