I’ve been to the dentist about three times in the last two months and I have to say, it’s not fun! I think I’ve got good teeth and feel a recent need to check them as I accept I’m growing older. I’m discovering maybe not because my dentist sees everything and advises me of root […]
A Heart for Others…
I can only imagine how buzzing rush hour gets in other cities. From management of the transport service to the ever fluctuating temperament of passengers to the unexpected events that tend to occur; I find these interactions interesting. The other evening, en route home by the tube, 2 people got off at Old Street station. […]

Little Sophie…
I found myself in the back of the bus the other day and sitting next to me was a little girl called Sophie. She was all smiles and full of energy this evening. She told me about her school, her granny she was en route to visit and her younger sister. She didn’t really like […]

Thoughts that pass away…
Last week, I got news that a former class mate and friend had passed away. This touched me deeply. Apparently she was involved in a car accident while driving to another city to visit her dad who was sick; the car was fully damaged and she died immediately. I remember her clearly- she was vibrant […]

Life and Death…
I sometimes take a taxi to get into work in the City. The other morning, I was riding in one and chatting with my driver when somewhere near Moorgate I witnessed a close car accident. The man had stepped into the street right in front of the car ahead of us which caused everyone else […]

Changes…
The other weekend, I met up with a friend who came into London from Paris for an MBA lecture. It was a small reunion with another friend who also lived in London; we had all been working with the same firm in Dublin many years ago. As usual, there were a lot of shared stories […]

Passion is Everything…
Passion is unleashed not generated. It is a force that is truly real and not a figment of your imagination. You can’t think you have passion…you know you have passion. This is because it is that part of you that burns and gives life through your expressions…without necessarily any effort on your part. This […]

How addictive is addictive?
I have an addictive personality, most of my family has struggled with alcohol and I have been an alcoholic for 7 years. I have read many self-help books, but still find myself struggling. Do you think this biological trait is stronger than my desire to change? Desire is the strongest thing possible. And by this […]

Quality isn’t always cheap…
I usually laundry my clothes once a month and have always used a dry cleaning shop near my house. I know these guys pretty well and appreciate their service. However, I got an offer through my door the other day from another shop that gave me 20% savings with a free delivery and pick up […]

In need of change…
En route home from work the other day, there was a man on the Northern line begging for change. He spoke of his ill fortune and his desire for financial assistance. He went through the carriages with his hand outstretched expectant; I guess he believed in the good of mankind. A man who sat opposite […]

It’s essential but not sufficient…
I have had many mentors, read books and attended seminars; yet I still haven’t overcome my issues. We have been taught a lot of tools and models to live by but at the end of the day, you’ve finally discovered this is not where life is. This is good. They are all essential but not […]

Thoughts on Attraction…
The story of Adam and Eve teaches us that there’s a man in every woman and there’s a woman in every man. Furthermore, when a man is content and at peace with himself….he is able to realise this. He will see himself clearly in a lady….based on knowledge and experience. Loving her is then easy […]

Staying in the present…
No matter what happens to me, I find myself either living in the past or hoping about the future. Can you help me to live more in the present, and be happy with myself as I am? To be honest, living in the present requires time and practice….so don’t be hard on yourself. Help here […]

She’s everything and more…
The Proverbs 31 woman is every woman. She is actually not far-fetched, impossible or a figment of the imagination. The qualities that make her so beautiful and desirable, as described in the Proverb, are innately found in every woman. What’s interesting to note is she is so because of her husband….who creates the right environment […]

Even they, aren’t perfect…
I always listen to my teachers but right now I’m learning about their mistakes and feel a bit withdrawn; where can I find the best teacher for life’s lessons? There are teachers all around you. You don’t really need to restrict yourself to those with titles or credentials because life in itself is […]

Trying to let go…
Let things happen….let things go…..relax. Some of us fear that the world as we know it will be no more if we stop holding on. So our hands are stuck on the deck….because we can’t imagine it any other way. This is simply a fallacy…..the world is more than you and it will continue spinning […]

Shinning your light…
My journey of self-discovery, in context of my nature as a writer with a keen mind, has been very interesting. From the writing, editing and publication of my first book, Unobservable Life to the feedback, critic and reviews that it brought; I am grateful for the experience. Of little knowledge to me, others were watching […]

A question of Free Will…
Do you believe that our lives are predestined or do you believe everyone has free will and is completely responsible of where they end up in life? Yes, this is why they say life is what you make it. The only twist is how many of us know this? And I mean that from a […]

I am…
It all depends on how you define yourself. Over time, we will realize that one key reason for the differences we experience is actually based on this. Because we all define ourselves in different ways and on different terms…..we will all look and deal with life in different ways. So everything we see and encounter […]

The Journey to Victory…
I recently got my driving license! That’s really good news for me and I believe anyone who has given themselves to accomplishing anything will understand. I grew up not really having to drive, I thoroughly enjoy being driven. As such, my time in the driver’s seat has been rather short lived and very random. Getting […]

Me against the World…
From the moment we are born the world labels us, pretty, thin, smart, doctor, lawyer, and these labels form who we are. Please explain to me how outside these labels we can define ourselves? Tell me…who is the world? And who makes up the world? We are essentially labelling ourselves… all in different ways but […]

Thinking about time…
The past is not the future. There is a clear difference between the two, just like night is from day….it’s important to consider this. The past may be understood by memories, scars and general present trends……yet these are measurements and reflections of what has happened and not necessarily predictions of what will happen. They will […]
