"Child, Enjoy!"

 The child's laughter

The widest, the realest

The joy is tangible

Innocence spread all over

So beautiful


The child's cry

The widest, the loudest 

The tears, hot streams

The cheeks can't stop the flow

So painful 


The grown man isn't as simple

He's "hyper" when he's happy

Yet, "not manly" when he cries

The freedom of childhood

He's been robbed of it


"Child, enjoy! It's your best moment"

Happy Children's Day!

"To be honest..."

 Parenting is arguably the most difficult task. There is no manual for it. The line between "He is MY child" and "It is HIS life" is so blurry. I am responsible for how he will turn out VS I can't be too controlling, too. I am in almost zero control of the information entering him yet, I'll be blamed for how he turns out. As I thought hard on this task, it dawned one me -  "Honesty is everything" That's what my child must see in me. Once he sees me practice it, he will be confident confiding in me. If he sees me honest to him, he will reciprocate it. It will be the way we roll. If he knows that no matter what he does, he can be honest with me, I'm glad.

To my friends, family and partners, how honest am I? What kind of parent would my child meet? To be honest, th...

The EPL is back but, "What's happening in London?"

Matchday 1 was an entertaining introduction to the season.  Man utd fans couldn't have asked for more. Zirkee came off the bench to score the winner in a match that looked destined for a draw. Joshua means "God saves". You can't make this up. (smiles) Arsenal started where they left off and Havertz with 17G/A in 14 games as the no.9 keeps shutting his doubters up.  At Ipswitch, Liverpool couldn't turn up the switch until the second half against and once again, the EPL's greatest African does his thing. Super Sunday was the headline. The teacher versus the student. No Rodri, no problem - Kovacic did it all. The 2-0 defeat to Chelsea didn't feel too bad. Such is the gulf between the "new project" and the 4 straight EPL champions. My focus is on Chelsea. My predicted XI: Jorgensen; Gusto, Tosin, Colwill, Cucurella; Lavia, KDH, Nkunku; Noni, Sterling, Guiu. My selection was solely based on preseason and availability. Surprisingly, the latecomers Palm...

Love's tale (3)

 Memories! Memories!! Memories!!! All we have left After they've left Flashes of thoughts Of the good times The smiles shared  The hugs, the kisses Love really covers all flaws 'Cause immediately they're gone The times they wronged us Times we were badly hurt They all disappear  Love  Surpasses all reasoning Gives reason to living "Those who cry the most at the graveside are those that had things to say to the diseased but never said it" Love Say it! Show it!
