No need for roses. Nor candle-lit dinner. Nor wine. Nor music. Nor card. Nor gift. In hundreds of ways it’s loud and clear: You love me. And the little ways in which you announce your love everyday are infinitely more real than anything money can buy. I already have all I ever need or want […]

No need for roses. Nor candle-lit dinner. Nor wine. Nor music. Nor card. Nor gift. In hundreds of ways it’s loud and clear: You love me. And the little ways in which you announce your love everyday are infinitely more real than anything money can buy. I already have all I ever need or want […]
My First Love
On His Plan For Your Mate Everyone longs to give himself completely to someone: to have a deep soul relationship with another; to be loved thoroughly and exclusively.

Pilates vs Yoga: Round 2
A long time ago I made a blog entry titled Pilates vs Yoga. I can’t help it, now it’s time for Round 2. After having a dearth of exercise over the holidays and then falling sick, I finally stopped putting it off and went to try the classes at The Yoga Sanctuary with Wanting. Maybe […]
The Thing I'll Miss Most is…
Snow. That’s what I felt as I watched snowflakes waltz past my bedroom window. Some even skidded past my nose as they brushed the pane of glass separating my cosy bedroom from the -30 deg (with wind-chill) winter city outside. I’m a winter baby… I was born on a very snowy day when it was […]
