Oooo September's coming and I'll be turning "..."  I've never felt this                                                      blasé  except for this year.  I wish I could just hibernate (a term my friend Anna Sides recently shared)   or go some place else and find a different way to live my existence... A young friend from school, Joan, sent me this thought-provoking message... "There are moments when all of a sudden in a split second your life changes forever...Before,you know it, you're already someone else..."   For the most part, I wonder how God insists on working through time allowing each of us to write our own histories... And as we weave our own stories,  we get involved with all sorts of situations and get entangled with all kinds of people...of course always depending on the choices we make... I refuse to give in to regrets...yes, I always recount the past. The difference is, I've learned to

Isn't it amazing how rocks could be formed from sand ... wind ... and heat of the sun? some from the splashing of the waves...  and rainfalls... Others are formed by human hands... Tolmeita 2003 "Can you see us up there?" ... corrupted by time... Susa 2004 "You should see the crosses engraved on the columns... " ... ravaged by strife... Magnificent Monday took me as far as North Africa where I once was a sand blewn by the desert winds... It took me to different places...  a nomad in a tent... tried... purified and tested... forged by the different elements of the earth... I emerged  a rose... ------------------------ " The LORD is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer,  my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge. He is my shield and the horn of my salvation,  my stronghold"  -Psalm 18,2 ------------------------------- I pray for you dear Libya... http://

TLC I have always been amazed on how our body works. It was in our Anatomy and Phsiology class that I understood the harmony and balance of each body part, its function and use, its care and abuse. We, somehow, become sharers of a person's life as we care for him/her from maternity to childbirth, pediatrics to geriatrics, as well as a person's death (post mortem care). As I grew in the field, God touched my life through the patients I cared for. In my early years in N.Africa where I worked as a hemodialysis nurse,   I was given a regular patient assignment.   My nurse friends avoided my ward maybe because the patients had only two options: to go on kidney transplant or to continue dialyzing for the rest of his/her life... this gave the ward a "morbid" tone... Since I was not yet conversing in Arabic (I had few private lessons in Italy), my patients and I communicated through gestures, eye contact, a lot of objective assessment... and believe me this dev

Magnificent Monday invitation from Jim McIntosh led me to write this post. He said, "This is about joining together to share a good experience of your travels, or that vignette in life that brought you joy." It's a mystery how God would lead me, if not to the same place,  to the same people to share my love and time with... I've been to this place thrice at different stages of my life and as much as I wanted to go back, my journey took in another route... my Satur-dates with these precious angels... ...I lost ten year old Adam to an unknown sickness and... I've never mothered my 'own' children... BUT God gave me thrice as many Adams after his death and blessed me with children I could take care of... So, what does God ask of you today? ------------------------------- Here are the links that celebrate the cycle of life: Jim McIntosh   http://holesinmysoles.blogspot.com/2011/0

Is it possible to meet the "right" person on the Internet? you asked... Is being the   right  person traced on one's looks (as we view them in their photos) ? personality (depending on what they write on their profiles) ? or on the more profound aspects--- sincerity? or purity of intentions? Just what is it that we are looking for in the net? Why join various social networks? Why not stick on just one? Are we in need of friends? companions? a partner? chatmates? networking? forms of entertainment? Are we here for thrills? or frolic? pet games... farms... vampires... mafias... aquariums? Do we look for somebody to satiate our desires...our needs...our longings? I personally come here because I find rest in my friends... pausing and reflecting... sharing thoughts... exchanging ideas... just being here... present and praying with and for them and their families... But my answer is YES...it is possible to find true friends through the
