IDENTITY CHRIST-is (Identity Crisis Ninang?) We are and then we’re maybe not. We think but others don’t. We see but others can’t. We feel and then we doubt. We do and now ask why. Have you wondered if our identity is plainly a figment of our imagination? Identity Crisis, coined and experienced by German psychologist … Continue reading IDENTITY CHRIST-is

It does to ME😘(and hopefully one or two more😘). That’s what matters. Anyway, below is a quarter worth of thoughts I shared with Friends once in … Continue reading A QUARTER PONDER!

THE ROAD TO (UN)SUFFERING I say suffering is a dearth of love. We suffer when we lose a loved one, or when a loved one refuses to love us, at least the way we want to be loved. The mental and emotional anguish cannot be quantified. No one wants to suffer. We all want to … Continue reading THE ROAD TO (UN)SUFFERING
Répondez s'il vous plaît (Tu parle francais Ninang?) Please respond. That's the literal translation of the commonly used acronym RSVP. It's normally used for social invitations. Respond please. And though it's just a choice between "attending" and "not attending", many people have difficulty signifying their intention. Probably because of the "maybe", and the "I'm not sure"- … Continue reading Répondez s’il vous plaît

Others bask in darkness for they haven't known what light can bring. Extreme loneliness, an unbearable challenge, hopelessness, sin - … Continue reading THE DARK SIDE

(RTS- reminder to self🤓) "So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of … Continue reading NINANG PONDERINGS 2
WHERE DO BROKEN HEARTS GO? (Can they find their way home Ninang?) I have never broken up with any guy except my husband. Then of course we made up; broke up, made up, broke up, made up (how many times Ninang?? "I don't know how many times exactly!")...broke up weeks before the wedding, made up … Continue reading WHERE DO BROKEN HEARTS GO? (Can they find their way home Ninang?)
AGAINST ALL ODDS (What are the odds Ninang? 😁) I have always thought the song "Against All Odds" meant fighting for one's love "against all odds". I remembered this song after attending a wedding of a residency mate and friend. The couple had heart-rendering ups and downs, twists and turns, humps and bumps, in their … Continue reading AGAINST ALL ODDS
BIRDS OF A FEATHER FLOCK TOGETHER I have been doing a lot of flocking lately (hmmm.. why doesn't that sound right?). I have been meeting and spending time with different groups of people who were part, and still part, of different times (era Ninang?), and areas of my life. Friends from Highschool, friends and co-workers … Continue reading BIRDS OF A FEATHER
