My ramblings and wanderings through life

  • I cannot access my regular blog while my usual computer is having surgery fixing its screen. So, this arena must suffice to carry my thoughts, which I prefer to keep separate from my writing – though I can’t really explain the logic behind doing that…. Lately, I’ve been considering the concept of being “an academic” and what exactly that means, looks like or embodies. I like to study, research, read. I love literature…

  • It’s as if… …I’ve been waiting all my life for you.…I’ve always known you deep within.…I’ve never really known love before. It’s as if… …you read my thoughts before I say them.…you know my heart without the words.…you have always loved me – and I you. -T~February 28, 2010

  • The writer longs for descriptionThe painter craves expressionThe sculptor aches for formationThe actor dreams of recognition and to what end? For whom do we describe our thoughts and feelings?From whom do we need to be recognized?For what do we desire to make form?For what do we gain recognition? is it to make the world better?is it to leave our mark? Is it possible for our creative angst to be relieved? -T~February 28, 2010

  • Sometimes I worry and fretSometimes I imagine what hasn’t happened yet. My heart still shudders at the memoryOf when you were away from me. And there are times when the fear sets inWill he still love me tomorrow…? But, then I see you and you smileThen I know all my worrying was not really worthwhile. -T~February 16, 2010

  • Is this for real?A man who opens doorsA man who lets/requests that I go first? Is this for real?A man who tells me his thoughtsA man who shares his feelings? Is this for real?A man who is very masculine, butA man who appreciates style, quality and sense? Is he for real? -T~February 16, 2010

  • Loving you Is an easy and natural thing to do. It’s as if you are a part of me And into my soul you see. I remember the day we met, You were intriguing and yet, My thoughts were only on friendship Someone to share the beach with for a dip. Anything more, I didn’t think Was in the cards – until that drink…. My world changed forever. Then, when our ties seemed…

  • There was this person I once knew who used to worry about everything. She used to cry every night to sleep and wonder why it seemed that God really must hate her. When she became a free adult, she felt lost and confused about what she was meant to do in this world and then she found love. In that love, she found an identity that was suitable and what she needed at…

  • On January 9th, I was lucky enough to attend the wedding party of a former colleague and friend in Japan. We started working together in 2006 and I count him amongst my friends whom I miss from the days of KUIS. It was a small gathering, but close and quaint as we caught up with each other and could share in the joy of Scott & Noriko starting their life together. Truly, I…

  • In all my life, I’ve wanted to be as I am with you – Just me. In all my life, I’ve wanted to share as I do with you – Just me. In all my life, I’ve wanted to love as I’m loved by you as just me. -T~February 8, 2010

  • Sometime in December, my friend – Shu – sent me a call for entries to a competition in the local newspaper to win a lesson with Rafael Nadal and tickets to the semi-finals of the Capitala Tennis Championship happening at the end of the year. Thinking that it never hurts to enter a contest, I SMS’d in my answers to the contest question and promptly forgot about it. One afternoon about a week…
