Three birthdays and too much cake in one week.The significant other turned 61(age is just a number, you say), there was a milestone birthday with the firstborn turning 21and it was the lucky and last teenage birthday of the junior sweet tooth.
The milestone birthday made me realise that there is now technically one more adult at home. What's in store for me? I wonder.Three males - A twenty-one-year-old, a 19-year-old and a 61-year-old(read 16)I find myself pitted against 3 males!! One day at a time sweet Jesus!
Death and destruction have marked the recent past. Innocent lives claimed by cowards. Will justice prevail? Will the criminals be brought to book?
An outspoken journalist and activist is gunned down because she spoke her mind, a seven-year-old is brutally murdered because he fought his perverted assailant and a talented pianist allegedly jumps to his death. How more gruesome does it get? How many more precious lives will end before we are freed from the shackles of hate, jealousy, ego and pride? When will John Lennon's'Imagine' become 'real'?
As we lament this unnecessary loss of life, we rejoice at the release of an Indian Catholic priest held captive by terrorists for more than a year. Praise God!
